22 Hole
The Battlesphere destroyed the whole factory. The debris that were falling smashed the droid army getting out of the factory. It seemed that those droids were just I suicide attack, meant to distract the clones.
However, thanks to Hell Squad actions of deactivating the shield, Tharrg have destroyed almost all of his own troops. General Windu gave the fire order.
"AT-TEs, Laats and SPHA-Ts, focus all your fire on this Battlesphere!"
Lasers, missiles and cannon shots were hitting the Battlesphere repeatedly. Explosions were going of on it, and pieces of it's exterior shell were falling. It was clear it wouldn't be able to make it. General Windu turned to Dab.
"Where is the rest of Hell Squad?"
"We... don't know sir. The last time we talked with leader Dageer he was about to enter the ship to find the shield generator."
"Then may the Force be with them."
------------------------
Dageer braced himself on the sides of the corridor. Cell, who was hurt, was asking them to leave.
"I am only delaying you all sir. Leave me and go."
"You don't give orders here trooper. Either we all get out or none of us do."
"He is right Cell. All we have to do is find a ship, hijack it and get out. Nice and easy."
"You know Brain, this is not helping. It almost make leave Cell behind a good opti... Careful! Droids!"
One of the patrols sent after them have caught up and started shooting. Thanks to Dageer warning they were able to dodge the first shots. They responded the fire but this time the ones caught in the open were them.
Dageer took out his last droid popper.
"Tech! At the same time. One... Two... Three... Now!"
Their grenades hit the middle of the droid patrol, and the electric currents they let out deactivated four or five droids. However, there were still ten more, including three B2 Super Battle Droids.
Hell Squad was out of options. With the droids outnumbering them it was just a matter of time before someone died. Dageer fired his DC-15A, and hit one of the droids on the head, severing it from his body.
It was at this moment that one of the missiles the Republic army was firing hit the Battlesphere, opening a hole on it. The vacuum sucked everything, including the unprepared droids.
Dageer grabbed a control panel with everything he could muster.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"
Tech couldn't grab anything, and was sent flying in the hole direction. Letting one of his hands go, Dageer grabbed Tech arm, barely catching him.
Brain and Cell have secured themselves onto some protuberances on the sides of the corridor. After Tech had grabbed on something, Dageer climbed up the control panel. The droid ship had energy walls that could be activated for situations like this.
After the situation was solved the clones sat on the floor for a little rest.
"Ufff, that was close. Thank you for catching me sir."
The clone group couldn't rest much however, as they had to get to the hangar. Fortunately, this time they didn't encounter any more droids. Not alive ones at least.
There were droids that got crushed by something , droids that hit the wall too hard and broke and also there were many more holes covered by energy shields.
They got to the hanger area without any more problems, but when they got there they found at least thirty droids guarding the ships. Tech pointed to the nearest ship, a Maxillipede Shuttle.
"That is our best option. The droids are scattered. If we can make to that ship before they group up we got some chance."
"Everybody check your weapons. I am the best shooter, so you two carry Cell. Everyone ready? Go!"
Dageer fired at the two droids guarding the door from where they came, catching them off guard. Then he, Cell, Brain and Tech started running the fastest they could without leaving Cell behind.
