Pressing his attack, Daevon drives the dark sider back back with a ferocious moves. Batting at the man's sword again and again, he gives him no room to turn the tables. The look of glee leaves the mans eyes as he starts concentrating more and more on keep Daevon from disarming him, or even injuring him.
Realizing he's winning, the Covallon redoubles his efforts. His heartbeat pounding in his ears, he slashes over and over at the man's right. Seeing the man beginning to anticipate his moves, he feints another slash then drops his blade until the trip scores the ground. Bringing it back up, he quickly spins through three hundred sixty degrees. Whipping back around with his lightsaber, he strikes his opponet's blade harder than either could anticipate, sending it flying.

Roth carefully moves the training remote closer and closer to the dark sider. Just as he get it to within a few feet of the man, he is surprised to see Daevon redouble his efforts, forcing them man back towards the remote. All of the sudden Roth is faced with the possibility of entangling his fellow Jedi instead of his intended target. Quickly changing gears, he sends the remote up so as to give Daevon a chance to deal with the man unhindered.
But as he's doing so he sees Daevon whip around and send the man's sword flying. Even as he begins to cheer at seeing the man disarmed, Roth realizes he still has another sword across his back. Operating the remote's controls as deftly as possible, he sends it in to entangle the hilt of the man's sword. The remote quickly weaves the syntherope around the sword's cross-guard and grip several times before Roth then sends it skyward once more, hoping beyond hope his little trick will work. He let's out a sigh of relief as he sees the little training device strouggle, but manage to pull the sword out of the scabbard.
"Brother!" the man shouts as he realizes the sword acorss his back has been withdrawn. He turns away from Daevon and grabs at the sword the remote is struggling to carry away from him. "How dare you try to kidnap my bother!"
Grabbing the sword, he yanks downward, causing the remote to loose the syntherope and rocket skyward. Turning, he runs from the landing site, but all are certain they can hear him mumbbling something about not letting the sword be kidnapped again. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Syllri checks the damaged speeder for enemies. If none are found, he will then see if it is operational enough to get him back to the ship. _________________ Check out some of my games at DriveThruRPG!

Moving slowly, carefully, Syllri inspects the speeder, but finds it devoid of any occupants. It looks as if the troops that were using it choose to abandon the speeder and retire while he was busy dealing with the war droids.
Deactivating his lightsaber, but keeping it ready just in case, Syllri begins inspecting the damage inflicted on the speeder. The starboard engine is tilted at an odd angle and the frame is pretty badly dented. With a start Syllri realizes this is the same speeder he'd been standing on before fighting the droids. The one he'd caused the other speeder to crash into. He remembers it had given a shudder and slowed to crawl after the impact.
Mentally crossing his fingers, he moves to the cab to see if it still runs. The controls are antiquated, but he's able to largely figure them out enough to hopefully start it up and control it. He turns what appears to be the starter and is rewarded by the whiring sound of an engine trying to turn over. He turns the ignition a second time, this time the engine spurts to life. Though it keeps coughing and occasionally backfiring, the speeder slowly lifts off the ground.
(OOC: Due to the damage Syllri caused to it earlier, the speeder regular running speed is down to 10 KMH, it's suffering -1D to it's hull code and manuverability.) _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Noting with a "Hmph!" that the syntherope was disconnected from the remote, Roth programs the remote to swing back a couple meters, then begin peppering the dark sider with stinger bolts. He commands the remote to aim for the head with a rapid-fire pattern, keeping his eye on the progress as he begins to move in on the dark sider.
If the dark sider draws his sword to begin parrying bolts, Roth will add in evasive maneuvers to the remote's actions to keep it from being destroyed long enough to keep being a distraction. Keying his PTP, he sends a short burst transmission to his companions, telling them of his suspicions that the sword might be the key to either the dark sider's power or his sanity (perhaps both), and that they should probably try to get it. |

Roth's remote zips in and starts peppering the dark sider with stinger bolts, but to no avail. It's almost as if the dark sider has some kind of shielding device in place. The man doesn't even flinch as he runs away from the battle.
Before Roth, Siegfried, or Daevon can even catch up with the man, they hear the high pitched whine of repulsor engines from overhead. Looking up they see a number of skiffs approaching. The repulsorlift vehicles land near the retreating dark sider and his troops, allowing them to board before taking off again.
The three watch for several minutes as the skiffs disappear from view, heading slightly southwest. The area around the crash site falls into silence, only the sound of the crackling fire serving to remind them in full of what just happened. As they turn back to figure out how to extinguish the fire the silence is once more disrupted by the sound of an approaching repulsorlift vehicle. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

The speeder's thruster's propel the vehicle with ever increasing difficulty as Syllri pilot's it back towards the Raptor. At one point he wonders if it wouldn't be faster to get out and walk, but decides that it would be better to stick with the battered vehicle rather than tiring himself out by walking. That way he'll be a little fresher incase there's an ambush waiting near the ship.
As he get's closer to the Raptor, he sees a number of small aircraft through the trees overhead. And their moving away from the Raptor. Visions of something happening to the senator's son or his fellow Jedi run through Syllri's mind as he suddenly redlines the speeder. It coughs and sputters, but manages another four or five kilometers worth of speed. Not nearly as fast as Syllri would like, but at least at doesn't feel as if time is inching by.
After several minutes that seemed to strech into a week, Syllri can finally see the Raptor through the trees ahead. He also sees something else. Smoke. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

"What now?" Siegfried asks as he hears the approaching vehicle. He begins looking around for a good place to ambush the approaching vehicle. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Roth stretches out with the Force, attempting to get a feel for who or what is headed their way... |

Streching out with the Force, Roth senses that there is either a Force-user or merely a Force-sensitive approaching. However, he is unable to determine whether it is the dark sider returning to finish them off or Syllri. Or even someone else he has yet met. _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!

Siegfried does a quick search of the crash site, spying a tree with a branch that looks large enough to fit a queen sized bed on. He quickly notes that the Raptor's crash broke off a few of the upper branches, and one is hanging like a curtain over the large branch. Not a great ambush spot as the hanging branch's leaves will largely obscure his field of vision. But he figures he can easily remidy that by cutting a large enough opening in them.
Quickly climbing up to the branch, Siegfried clears an opening just in time to see a repulsorlift vehicle come into view. It looks like some kind of speeder truck of a design that seems vaguely reminescent of other vehicles he's seen recently. There also appears to be a single occupant. At this distances the vehicle is still too far away for Siegfried to identify either.

"Do you sense that, Roth?" Daevon asks. "Feels like someone whose at least Force-sensitive." _________________ FLUFFY for President!!!!
