It ain't Easy

"This is harder than I thought it would be," Gar mentioned over comms. 

"You do realize that every Black Widow is trained from when they can walk to be unrivaled assassins?" Natalie asked.

"Unrivaled? Ha," Gar laughed. 

"Can we focus, Gar," Sol asked.

"What does that mean?" Natalie asked.

"How many unrivaled assassin organizations that produce unrivaled assassins exist? I'm sure there's so many no one can keep track of them," Gar mocked as he blocked machine gun fire from a widow, moved into the range of his lightsaber, and attempted to knock her out. Unfortunately, she moved away from him. With his enhanced reflexes and speed, he struggled to take these women down. 

"You know, I'm in the back taking most of the fire. I could really use some help," Sol interrupted the two. 

"Are you breathing hard? I can feel the conflict within you. You want to be arrogant, but the Widows are a lot better than you thought," Natalie mocked back. 

"If I were allowed to kill or maim; it would only take me one swing and they would be out. Maybe I should switch from stun to light slicing. I bet if I cut off a few hands they would settle down," Gar said over the comm.

"You wouldn't dare!" Natalie shouted into the comm.

"Of course he wouldn't, besides, Jedi 1 gave him a training lightsaber. It can only stun an opponent. Hey, I think someone shot through my armor, I might be dying," Sol responded.

"Do I need to come to help?" Natalie asked worried.

"He's fine, he was barely grazed," Gar said. 

"Hey, I was trying to change the subject back to one of you finishing up so that you can help me take care of the army in the backyard!" Sol shouted. 

"Don't you have V6? Just have him lay down suppressive power," Gar responded as he finally took down the Widow. 

Gar ran forward, sighting his next target when a massive fist appeared. He raised his lightsaber to block, but the angle of the fist hit the saber and pushed it into Gar's arm. Gar yelled in pain, when another fist connected with his stomach and sent him flying into a pillar.

The breath was knocked out of him. He moved behind the pillar and tried to catch his breath. 

"Jedi 2, are you okay?" Natalie asked.

"What's the situation?" Sol sent it over.

"Where'd this guy come from?" Gar responded and stood up on shaky legs. He leaped away as he sensed the powerful life force coming around the pillar. He regained his focus and blocked several gunshots. 

The large man rushed at him at a speed that wasn't any slower than his own. The man who fought him looked blind but attacked with accuracy and ferocity. "This guy is huge! He's as tall as a Wookie," Gar said. 

He blocked every punch but even with the stun feature, it seemed the man wasn't phased. "He punches like a loadlifter!" 

"Do you need help?" Natalie asked.

"Don't worry about me, get Dreykov. Cut off the head and the forces will crumble. Hunter 3, hurry up and support Widow!" Gar sent over comms.

"You're right, be careful," Natalie went off comms and continued to move through the corridors. She removed as many Widows as possible as she approached her destination. 

Coming to the last door, she heard Sol exclaim, "Holy Shnikes! Jedi! Help! Gina Carano is trying to kill me! Come and help me, she's frickin' strong!" 

"Gina Carano is here? There's no way. You're talking about the female MMA fighter, right?" Sol heard through his helmet as he looked at a young but buff Gina Carano. 

Sol heard a man calling down to the woman, "My Angel, show me how powerful you've become. Kill him!" The man yelled. Gina Carano attacked, Sol shot blaster bolt after blaster bold, but she dodged all of them. She tanked a couple to show off, but it didn't phase her. 

"What the heck, Gina Carano has superpowers," Sol commented and leaped backward. He continued to fire at the young woman, but he either couldn't hit her or the blasts didn't bother her.

Natalie didn't hesitate when she heard how desperate Sol's situation was. She rushed through the door, rolled with shields up, and fired at the first person she saw. It was a man who looked like glass. He stood in her way. When the blasters struck the man he wasn't affected at all. He sent the energy back at her. If not for the Widow shields, she would have been hit. 

By this time, Gar was frantic. He knew his friend needed help, but he had to fight against a human tank and about five widows. Whenever the hulking human struck, Gar blocked both him and the gunfire. If not for his armor he would have been severely injured by a bullet. 

In a moment of separation, he pushed his hand forward and the blind behemoth flew backward. Gar took a deep breath and attacked the widows. The blind man got up and wanted to help the widows, but Garth knew better than to get too close to him. 

Outside, Sol exchanged blows with Gina Carano and finally headbutted her, but he received a headbutt from her immediately after. She hit him like a train! He crashed into the ground. His HUD cracked and the images outside of his helmet were fragmented. 

"V6! Shoot Gina Carano with the speeder's blaster. She can take it!" He commanded V6 who dutifully did as instructed as it swooped past. Gina hit by the blaster, flew nearly one hundred feet away. 

A few moments later, she threw the rubble off her and picked up a big piece of cement. She looked for the thing that shot at her and then hurled the cement at the speeder striking it. The speeder was knocked sideways. There was a huge dent in the side of the speeder where the cement struck it. 

Sol dodged incoming fire from the Widows who were getting closer to surrounding him. He removed something that looked like a thermal detonator and flung it at Gina Carano. It exploded in light blinding her for a few moments. Sol fired at the Widows and took out two before Gina regained her eyesight. 

The man from earlier watched their battle. He turned around and came downstairs. He walked patiently toward Sol. Gina saw him and walked over to him. 

"He's giving you some problems," the man said to her cooly. 

"I can handle him, I'm testing my powers on him. If you want me to get serious, I will," Gina smiled at the man who smiled back.

"That's my angel, but kill him," Ajax ordered. Gina smiled and bent down to the ground picking up some stones. 

She threw one stone, nailing Sol in the chest, he spit out blood in his helmet. Another stone struck him in the arm; he heard his arm crack. Another stone hit his helmet and got stuck in the T-visor. A final stone struck his leg, and he collapsed. 

"Guys, I don't think I'm going to make it," Sol sent over his comms causing Natalie and Gar to freeze. 

"No, I'm coming for you," Gar said back. He looked at the behemoth and with a wave of his left hand large pieces of furniture flew to him. Another force pushed and Gar was in his face swinging his lightsaber desperately.

"There's two of them, I can't hold out," Sol said.

"No, please don't die, I'm coming," Natalie yelled as tears formed and threatened to spill out. 

"I'm glad we got to go out Nat --" the comm signal died. Natalie screamed, and Gar yelled swinging his saber with more focus and ferocity than ever before. He lifted the man off his feet with the Force smashing him against the wall. 

One strike over and over again in the same place and Gar saw his skin begin to turn red. "Don't die, Dylan!" He yelled into his communicator. All of his memories with his best friend rushed into his mind. They have known one another ever since they were in kindergarten.

The big man tried to resist, but he was being batted flung, and crushed. There wasn't any rhyme or reason for the attack. He began to hurt all over. Ethan breathed deeply. His memories became regrets, his regrets became fear, and his fear became anger. He began to forget his friend, now his thoughts turned toward the blind man. He wanted to kill him!

"Don't get mad, remember, you're supposed to be a Jedi," Natalie cried over the comms." 

"They killed him, they killed Dylan..." Gar struggled. 

"Who's Dylan, Gar, calm down," Natalie tried to help him regain his calm.

"I can't...nothing matters...I'm not strong enough..." Gar responded. 

"Hey kid, don't go crazy. You're friend is still alive," a stranger's voice came over the comms. 

"Who...who's this?" Gar asked as he grasped for his sanity.

"I'm your reinforcement, the name's Boba Fett."
