TDD-Inside the Maw

[Kano Taes]

The sith team had finally made it into the Maw, the big cavern where the cultits were supposed to be hiding, those exiles would not be terrorizing the planet anymore, they were a pest that the sith, the rightful dark side empire of the galaxy would erradicate those warmongers with extreme prejudice, for that was their duty, the cultits were the living representation of what the galaxy thought about the sith, about what they feared of him, their deaths would demonstrate once again that they arent the warmongers the exile once were.

Kano looked at his companions for the upcoming fight, people that were more that capable of holding their own against these cultists, among them was Abigail, her own apprentice who now surpassed him in raw power, these cultists didnt have any chance...

Kano prepared his gear, four of his lightsabers being held tightly by the sith abomination's hand, his armor and mask covering his face and body, a dark cloak whose back had the symbol of the judgement covering his body, his hellow eyes looking at each of the other members of the group while the eye located on the abdomen twitched on its own "It is time to eliminate these little pests from the galaxy, let their corpses remind the galaxy that the exiles are no more, that the sith are the ones who will reign" Kano said, a smile on his face after finishing his little speech, the Kaleesh abomination turned arouns, staring at the depths of the Maw, gesturing the others tl advance "Come, the sooner we end this, the less time the other group will have to hold off whatever reonforcements the cult may bring to the cave" Kano added, walking deeper inside the cavern.

[Zazai Ta'Resh]

These were some of the last remnants of an old way of thinking, an old way of doing things. No longer was enough to sit in caves and study the Dark Side of the Force. They had rallied under the leadership of their Empress, an Empire born which offered security to those too weak to seize it for themselves.

The air seemed to buzz with anticipation of their final conflict as they stood outside the entrance to the large cavern. He remained silent as the Sith Master spoke as he checked his own gear one last time. This would be the first time he had fought alongside any of them but he knew them all by reputation. They would be victorious, it was inevitable but cornered animals always fought the fiercest and he believed this would be no different.

Satisfied with his armor, Zazai pulled the lightsaber from his belt into his hand. It remained dormant for the time being, but it would get its share of blood soon enough.

They slowly stepped into the cave, further and further into darkness. It reminded him of his upbringing as a slave working the mines. The all too familiar sight of the sun being blotted out as they moved down into the ground. It made him uneasy, but he drew on that, calling on the Force to serve him in the coming battle.

THEME​

Another mission dealing with cutlists. So many cultures worshiped the obscure. He found it a curious subject but not one was naive towards. Religion and belief were malleable interests that could raise civilizations and crumble entire ideologies. People always wanted something to believe in. There is a time when simple survival satiates that desire but eventually everyone wants to think of something bigger. Cyzyn-Itza-Rus was no different but he did not let it blind him. When there is not a god or deity people place other people on pedestals.

The Tiss'shar held a thunderslug pistol in one clawed hand while a light saber was in the other. Tools of destruction and death dealing. The blaster was nothing special, rather barbaric compared to other manners of eliminating targets. His light saber on the other hand was far more elegant in comparison. He wore his Drake armor for this event. The possibility of head to head combat even with simple cultists made him not want to take any chances. Desperate animals backed into a corner sometimes prove resourceful in pursuit of survival. Fanatics could be even more inventive. The four armed sith said all that needed to be said. A slight reptilian growl rumbled from Cyzyn's chest in response before he started moving forward.

[Zanna Kressh]

Zanna had been more than happy to join in on this mission. She had hailed from Korriban directly, and she knew the life she led under the old Emperor. The man had refused to let her people ever leave their space or let anyone venture in. Her entire life, she had never known a life outside of the limited space of her people. It wasn’t until Andraste came forth and changed everything that she had a taste of what the galaxy had to offer. Many Sith regarded her as the breaker of chains and liberator of the Sith.

Thus, when word reached that some cultists existed to perpetuate the old ways and stand up against her regime, Zanna was at the forefront to put a stop to that. She joined her fellow Sith, geared up in her usual armor and weapons. She had been recently made Sith Master, and she took the position seriously. Always a soldier, her loyalty would always be to her new Empress. She had no ambitions to be on a council, but she would always be on the front lines to help carry out her will.

She had met Zazai before, but the others were new to her. Nevertheless, she would trust them on this endeavor as they approached the cavern. She wasn’t entirely sure what kind of resistance they’d be facing, but between the three of them, she had full confidence. Zanna turned to look at Kano, nodding to him, “Lead way,” She spoke in her thick accent with the limited Basic she knew, “We ready.”

Kano nodded at his partners for the mission, being the first one to move forward and deeper into the cave, walking in complete silence, no sound coming from him but the sound of his cybernetic leg stomping the ground. The group would've been walking for a few minutes now, noticing that the Maw's reputation as the biggest cavern wasn't for nothing, but they would finally find some opposition, although it was fairly small, two guards stood in front of them, two exile warriors that were probably tasked to guard their little base and protect it from fauna and intruders, they were of course force sensitive and trained to use the dark side as a weapon. Not only that, but they were well armored, both of them wore exile battle armor, an armor from times before the Sith Empire, an armor which needed to dissapear just like their wearers. The cultist on the left was armed with a double bladed lightsaber, a weapon that Kano didn't usually see among force sensitives, the other one on the right side, however, was more conventional, a lightsaber on his right hand and a blaster pistol on his other.

The two guards spotted the Sith party and quickly ignited their lightsabers, the one armed with a pistol aimed and the group and shouted "We are under att-" But he was interrupted, the exile didn't get the chance to shoot his weapon or finish his sentence before gasping for air, the Kaleesh abomination was using the force as an invisible hand which wrapped the warrior's neck, he may be a force sensitive warrior, but he was nothing compared to the Sith master, and the two cultists certainly didn't stand a chance against all four of them together. The cultist was incapacitated, focusing on using the force to not get his neck snapped, becoming a vulnerable, easy kill for anyone else in the room. The other one, however, was gathering the force, be it to help is partner or to attack the other sith, but the Kaleesh trusted he would be taken care of.

[Zazai Ta'Resh]

Zazai lunged at remaining cultist with his lightsaber already ignited. The man spun away from Zazai with great speed, Zazai's lightsaber only gouging the service of his armor when it should cut the man in two.

Zazai was then hit with a powerful blast of lightning that flung him to side. It wouldn't be enough the kill Zazai as he had the other Sith to worry about, but Zazai slid along the floor before coming to a stop. He struggled to his feet, leg muscles still twitching somewhat from the shock.

The Sith had the numbers advantage, it was only a matter of time before this one fell to them, but if these were the two responsible for guarding the door and they wielded this kind of power, their job today would be no easy task.

So much work under ground. Beneath the surface their was violence, on the surface their was savagery, and in the skies or beyond there was no respite. This would perhaps be the first time Cyzyn-Itza-Rus had fought another force sensitive person since the creation of the Sith Empire. Everyone since then had just been normal beings without an affinity to the force.

As they moved deeper into the ground he kept his senses tuned ahead. His own large mass made as little sound as possible though it was difficult when one was over two meters tall and wearing heavy armor. Still he had become used to it. Zazai and Kano were in front and so they reacted first. As the Sith male was struck by electrical power and thrown to the side Cyzyn-Itza-Rus calculated for the cultist's new position.

In mid jump Cyzyn activated his saber and buried the piercing tip in the man's chest. His hind legs coming into contact with the man's torso and sending him to the ground under the weight the reptilian dark sider possessed. A satisfied hiss escaped serpentine mouth of the Sith. For the moment it seemed like those were the only two defenders.

Kano would have no problem taking care of the other cultist warrior seeing how he was not going to receive any kind of help, the man was too busy trying to not get his neck snapped to do anything, leaving him in a very vulnerable position, the Kaleesh warrior would have more than enough time to close the gap between them, trying to slash him through his chest, his lightsaber would be blocked by the cultist's, something that surprised the Kaleesh abomination, a valiant effort, but ultimately futile, after all, Kano still had other three blades to use against him, The Kaleesh lifted one of the other lightsabers, the crimson blade going through the jaw and exiting through the cranium, ending the man's life.

"Let's proceed" Kano said before walking deeper into the cave. The two gate guardians had been taken care of quickly and without much trouble, but the words that the cultist Kano killed didn't fall on deaf ears, they echoed through the cave and were heard by some soldiers nearby, who made sure the others knew about the attack, after a minute or two walking, the sith group would find a lot more resistance, around 15 soldiers were ready to attack them, some positioned behind boulders and using them as cover while while the rest were standing in the open, behind them was another cultist knight wielding a lightsaber and acting as their commander. These forces were, however, not the last one, not far behind them were another 7 soldiers being led by yet another sith knight and a Pallikari medium tank that would arrive shortly as reinforcements, the four jedi had some time to take care of the forces in front of them before the reinforcements arrived, they would have to take care of them quickly or their mission would get a lot more complicated

The forces ahead were more numerous than the present Sith that moved towards to meet them. However Cyzyn had confidence that the Sith were of a higher combat prowess than the simple soldiers. Still they would need to move with caution. Nearing the group the Tiss'shar took out two fragmentation grenades and activated them, hurling them towards the largest group of fifteen and guiding the explosive orbs with the force. A moment later, with the assistance of his guiding force capabilities the two grenades took out all fifteen of the first group. Originally the Sith had planned on just softening them up but now it just left the leading Sith knight and the rear guard with artillery.
