The battle was intense, several vulture droids had made a perimeter around an area for the droid transports to begin unloading there troops. One of the vulture droids landed with one of its legs puncturing a nearby clone trooper. It instantly killed him. With the body still attached to the droids leg, it began walking around blasting away other clone troopers. The picture was horrifying and even Dark couldn't manage to swallow down that scene. War, it was vicious and times like this it shows the brutality of it. He hadn't spent much time reflecting on it, since he was usually amongst the battle. He looked at Eoro who had a similar reaction to the battle. As Dark turned back onto the battle scene, he saw two proton torpedoes launch into a squad of clone troopers. One ignited the ground under them but the other, shot right into one of the soldiers. It nailed into the center, destroyed anything the stomach was carrying. Worse, the ordinance didn't go right through him, the torpedo flew him several feet into the air before it carried him to a nearby turbo laser turret. The torpedo exploded and knocked out many troops close to the once known cannon.
Over air and land, the raging fight was almost like chaos. The droids and clone troopers were deadlock in close quarter battles. No longer did it depend on accuracy, point blank range was all it took, it came down to reflex. It seemed as this was the last full force the droid army had, they placed the entire gamble in trying to take this landing strip. Dark turned towards Eoro.
"Ok its time, were not going to have another chance at this."
Eoro gave a small nod. "What are going to do?"
"You see that ARC hanger?" Dark's finger pointed towards 250m from where they were. The hanger was beside a turbo tank heavily engaging against vulture droids.
"Yeah, I see it. Its going to be pretty tight getting there."
Dark agreed, "but thats the only place where we can take off with the safest chance of getting out of here."
Eoro knew dark was right, the hanger laid poised for a perfect take off without having the battle interfere. It was at the edge of the battlefield, getting there was the hard part. Then suddenly Eoro had an idea. Without saying a word Eoro dove off the tree and headed towards the clone army. Dark was in shock and soon dove down to follow him.
"What in Jedi's name are you doing Eoro?"
Eoro didn't answer, he continued off into a bunker full of clone troopers. Dark carefully made it across there and hope that his pal didn't go crazy. He peeked inside and saw 25 clone troopers that had surrounded Eoro. But what was particular was that none of them showed any threat or pointed there guns. The clone commander incharge of the platoon saluted Eoro.
"Will the turbo tank be ready commander?" Eoro asked.
"The turbo tank will be ready sir." He answered back.
"I want no mistakes and want every men here ready to aid myself and General Darkmatter." Eoro commander.
"No mistakes sir and every able bodied men will be ready for General Darkmatter and Emperor Eoro."
At that moment Dark eyed towards Eoro. "Emperor Eoro?"
Eoro laughed, "This mind trick has its perks."
The commander signaled the platoon to leave there posts and march towards an empty turbo tank. Eoro and Dark followed close behind. Speaking just enough that Eoro could only hear.
"This mind trick has all 25 of them controlled by you?"
Eoro replied, "Just the commander clone, the others just followed anything he barks."
Dark was impressed. As they marched behind the battle, they came towards a turbo tank with other vehicles parked nearby. This was the staging area and where supplied needed to be replinished. The platoon and two jedi's boarded the giant tank. The front had 4 giant laser cannons mounted around the head. The armour plating was very strong and can withstand just about anything that came towards there way. On the roof rested a viewing pod and stood several meters up from the tank. This gave a trooper perfect view of the surroundings, but did not protect him at all. Nearing the rear, was a big laser turret that could rotate 360 degrees to any direction. In addition, the turret supported rapid firing and could decimate just about anything in its path. The tank was approximately 50 meters long with wheels big enough to roll over anything. All along every side of the tank was an assortment of small laser cannons for protection. Holding 27 people was more then enough room.
The tank powered into action and rumbled back towards the battle.
"All systems ready sir." The clone driver told the clone commander.
Eoro interrupted "Whats your name commander?"
He answered "Brody"
Dark and Eoro sat just behind the driver chairs. in the center of the head was the commanding chair, which Brody sat. Every trooper had a position to operate and was more then ready to destroy the droids.
Dark thought to himself, this is going to be easier then I thought.
Exploding into the action, the giant monster of war blazed into the droid lines. Running and hitting whatever was in its path, it made short work of it. There was so many lasers coming from the tank that it looked like it a giant ball of fireworks. The tank was only 200 meters away from the destination, but a droid tank laid in its path.
Brody barked "All main cannons fire on that target."
The 4 main cannons bursted there laser bots into the tank and exploded. The tank laid in a black charred smoke as the tank rolled by it.
"Rear support, keep the vulture droids off our tail." ordered Brody. Dark looked into the rear view screen. 3 vulture droids were flying and strafing them. Penetrating the armour plating, the tank could only hold so much before they were in trouble. Then a rumbling sound came from the rear, it repeated in a thumping action. the tank shook as each sound rang. The intervals were less then a second. Dark took another look at the vulture droids. Two of them has already been shot down and at that moment he knew where it originated from. That massive turret in the rear was the cause of it. Full well, that was one of the power houses that made the tank so deadly.
Sustaining only minor damages the tank had made it towards the objective. Due to the surprise counterattack, even the droids didn't expect to see a giant tank roar away from protecting the landing strip. The battle around the area was not as intense, only a few pockets of fighting. Parking just beside the other tank guarding the hanger, Dark and Eoro ordered Brody to watch there flanks and to make sure that they watch their backs, not the other tanks. If the other tank knew what they were doing, they would be already dead. Entering the hanger, several ARC fighters were laid out in perfect order for emergency launches. Many of them were already out fighting to protect the landing strip.
Eoro and Dark climbed into one of the ARC fighters and started the ignition sequence. But before they could get themselves strapped into the cock pit. As the hanger bay doors opened to let the arc fighter take off. Jenicide stood infront of the ARC fighter. Her pink lightsaber glowing in her one handed stance. Her hair wrapped into a pony tail. Her robes were no longer heavenly white, but a black type of suit that almost hugged her skin. It was tight, revealing that it was some sort of special fabric that gave her additional speed and defense. That was the only conclusion Dark had. Her eyes met both jedi's.
The only way of getting out of here was through here. Dark and Eoro jumped off the fighter, took off there jedi robes and flicked there lightsabers on...
