chapter 34

Bridge of a venator

The battle in space for the republic was getting worse and worse and communication with their flagship was now gone. The last few venators that were left last heard that an unknown Terran soldier was wrecking havoc on the ship.

It was safe to say that the republic was going to lose this battle. The terrans had fired multiple missiles at their ships and each hit that they took did damage to them even if it didn't look like it from the outside. Every venator that was hit was going through different problems with their ship and some of them wasn't going to make it.

The flagship of this small fleet wasn't fairing any better. On one of the bridges on the ship a fight between a Jedi knight and a Spartan was happening. This would be the first time a Jedi and a Spartan would face each other in combat.

The sounds of lightsabers and an energy sword was heard clashing against each other as sparks after each hit flew in the air. Both the Jedi and Spartan was fighting at a high speed that a normal person wouldn't be able to react in time, but the Jedi was starting to be on the losing side to this as each hit the Spartan inflicted on the Jedi seemed like his wrist was going to break at some point.

Each block and hit was taking it's toll on him and one mistake could cost him his life. After trading blows for a few seconds the Jedi does an over head swing that quickly becomes the biggest mistake he had made this entire fight. Because the Spartan takes the energy sword and catches the lightsaber in the gap in it's sword before shoving the energy sword to the ground while swinging the lightsaber in his other hand at the Jedi's head ready to take it off.

This had happened so fast that the Jedi barely had time to register what just happened since the Spartan had basically slammed him to the ground dazing him a little since he didn't let go of his lightsaber. Looking to his side he sees the glow of a lightsaber heading straight towards his face and almost on reaction alone he quickly puts up his free hand and uses the force to push his hand back.

This has the outcome he expected as the Spartans hand gets pushed back, but he wasn't ready for him to instantly take the energy sword out the floor and swing at him again. Using the little response time he has left he jumps back with his lightsaber in his hands a few feet where he once stood.

Once he lands he smells the burned smell of cloth and looks at his shirt to see two wide slashes on his shirt which were burned away from the sword. Upon seeing how close he was to death, it is than that he realizes that this Terran was not what he seemed like. It was like he was going against a fellow Jedi, but the attacks were more quick and precise with barely any time to react.

"Your not just a simple soldier are you?" The Jedi says curious.

"Your reflex and reaction time is too fast even with all that armor on. Not even a mandalorian will be able to keep up with you."

"Just who are you? What are you?" The Jedi says readying his lightsaber.

Master chief stands up to his full height looking down at the Jedi that was small compared to him.

Readying his weapons to clash again he answers his question. "A Spartan. That's what I am." He says as he quickly runs toward the Jedi shocking him at his speed again.

Seeing that he might have to retreat he uses the force again, but uses all his might to push him back as he releases his hands at him as the push would send him flying.

That's what he thought was going to happen because the force push he did against the Spartan had only sent him a few feet backwards as he sled backwards his feet never leaving the ground as a loud screech of metal sliding against metal was heard.

The Jedi looks on in disbelief as this was the first time he had ever seen someone resist against a force push that he used with all his might. It was enough that even ships would be affected by it if it was the main target of this attack.

Master chief throwing the Jedi's little attack off charges again, but at a greater speed as if he was holding back as the Jedi blocks each attack with a lot of difficulty. This doesn't last for long as the Spartan finally knocks the lightsaber from the Jedi's hand. Not because the force behind the attacks cause it to slip out his hands. But because the Jedi's wrist had finally gave out on him. The constant aching bon his wrist had taken it's toll because the Jedi's wrist was now broken as he held onto the limp hand looking at it in pain.

Seeing his lightsaber fly away from caused the Jedi's breath to quicken in fear because he knew he was about to die any second now and he wasn't going to be able to do nothing about it.

Slowly taking his gaze from his hand he looks up just in time to see a energy sword making it's way towards his body as his eyes widen. That was the last thing he seen before the sword cut through this body

Master chief had cut his body in two half's putting a end to their fight. Taking any Intel from the bridge he leaves while also taking the lightsaber from the Jedi he killed moments ago. He wasn't taking their lightsabers as a trophy, but for others to use in combat as well. There wouldn't be many being used since they still couldn't understand how they work. They didn't really need to know since energy swords was just as effective as a lightsaber and was potentially even more deadly if used correctly.

In the battle in space it seemed to be going to a close because the few remaining republic ships were turning around. After it had been a few hours since the last communication with their general they made the decision that their general was killed.

Some of the ships didn't even get a chance to escape as a few Terran ships relentlessly attack the retreating ships before they went into hyperspace.

The republic had just lost another Jedi, but in hand to hand combat instead and more battles like this was going to happen soon as major battles full of troops was about to happen.

Back on Terra the terrans had finally gave the ok for their forces to send in more of their troops which was why more ships and Spartans were being getting more action than usual. This allowed them to do more and defend a wider area than usual.

But the biggest news for them was that the galaxy they were attacking now had the attention of a certain awakened specie. The terrans didn't have full control over everything they did yet, but they were no doubt on their side if a threat to them was spotted. And the galaxy they were at war with finally enough to get them into action.

Tatooine

A consular class frigate along with Anakin's ship the Twilight was seen heading towards Tatooine as they both exit hyperspace.

Aboard the frigate Waneta was seen standing beside Obi-wan as he looked at the planet they were about to fly too. Looking at the planet from space it seemed like a planet that wouldn't be able to hold any life, but she knew better than to think that.

This planet was basically a hotspot for criminals and violence. Not to mention the high numbers of slaves that was growing in the outer rim for so many years. If the republic actually helps the hutts like she thinks they will because of a deal they did at the start of the war with the separatist. Than the republic will be fighting against the very thing that they were made to do.

That was what the terrans wanted to happen and if a slave revolt happens throughout the galaxy. The republic will be put against a wall and will have no choice but to choose a side. The choice of ignoring what the hutts have been doing for so many years was about to bite them and either choice they made was going to affect them greatly from the inside.

Waneta was sure Obi-wan and the others knew this and she was going to make sure that they made a choice that would deliver a blow that they may never recover from for years. All she had to do was wait for the right time and if the Spartans along with the marines did well. The republic would start to fall from the inside as well as the outside.

From her eyes the republic was already doomed once the sanghelios had joined the war, but they weren't going to know about them until later.

As they enter he atmosphere of the planet. Wanted could only think. 'Once I stab the republic in the back. How would they react? Will they try and force me back. Or will they see me as a traitor and try and kill me.'

All she knew was that whatever the republic was going to do against her wasn't going to work. She was stronger in the force than they could imagine. Not as strong as some of the Jedi masters. But her training as a child was enough to rival them in addition with some other things. When the time was right she was ready and killing anyone in her way was not going to be a problem for her.

Afterall. She has killed many people and only certain people knows what her kill count is before she started as a padawan. Many don't know that she was part of a dangerous experiment by the Terrans that only had one person surviving which was her.

Many don't know that she is a bloodthirsty monster ready to be unleashed and the girl they knew is only hiding behind a innocent smile.
