The Clone Wars
Devils Defeat
Part 1
/
This takes part in what was thought to be the end of the war.
The Sith lord Dooku is dead.
Master Kenobi killed general Grievous.
Also Master Windu and Anakin Skywalker killed the chancellor as he took a swing for power.
They found out he was a Sith lord and Anakin pulled himself together long enough to see what he really was.
_Ohia Prime_
In a white room with red furniture. Three red and soft armchairs around a small round table, a large red double bed. A large mirror stood in a corner by a white high cabinet. A balcony led out with a view over a city with many tall and beautiful buildings. On the balcony leaning of the railing a young blond woman stood.
She wears a long white dress. Her hair is blowing in the wind. The city is called Hawa. A man followed by a Tactical droid entered the chamber. He bowed slightly.
"Dear Duchess", he greeted her.
He had brown hair and a small beard. The black robe touched the floor as he bowed. It was no answer from the female.
"The droid general Grievous has been slain", the man said.
He looked to be around 40 years old.
"Dead"? The duchess finally replied. "How"?
"Killed by a jedi master", the man said. "Kenobi I believe".
"So the Confederacy is finished soon without Dooku and Grievous to lead the droids", she said.
Her voice was without emotion. She hadn't even turned too looked at him yet.
"Not yet duchess. The Parliament seeks three new generals to take up the leading positions", he said.
His name was Qira Hall. He was an Ohia Prime senator and a parliament member.
"Your vote weighs heavily", he added.
"So"? The duchess said.
"If you proposed a few generals they would most likely get the job", Hall said.
"Please leave Senator Hall", she said.
"Duchess Valencia", Hall said, still trying to convince her.
"I said leave", the duchess said.
She raised her voice and sounded annoyed at him. Two large creatures with metal masks, black thick and long dreadlock hair entered the chamber. They wear barbaric pants of skin and no shirt. They had some kind of long blade on their back which they reached for.
The creatures are called Vedaccian's. The Vedaccian's are an old race with a warrior culture.
"Very well duchess", Hall said and turned around and walked out.
The tactical droid followed him.
"Whoever are choosen will have almost unlimited power", Hall said to himself and the droid.
"Yes sir", the tactical droid replied.
_The 37th Republic Fleet_
At a holografic table over a planets space defense stand a man with a black mask. He breathed slow and heavy. He have red pants, a brown belt and a dark brown jacket. Obi-wan joined him.
"Obi-wan", master Radicus addressed his old friend.
"I take it that's Lamha your looknig over", Obi-wan said.
Radicus nodded.
"The CIS have placed 47 Cuisers and three Ohia long-range Battery Cruisers in our path", Radicus said. "Most of their forces in this sector is there".
"So", Obi-wan said. "What's your plan"?
Radicus looked at Obi-wan and turned to the door to the main bridge.
"We use our superior numbers to win", Radicus said.
Obi-wan shook his head.
"You should spend less time with Anakin", he said smiling.
He became serious again.
"Those Long-range Battery Cruisers will be a problem", Obi-wan said.
Commander Cody was on the birdge.
"Generals", he greeted them.
"Cody", Obi-wan said and nodded. "What's our status"?
"We will soon arrive at Lamha general", Cody said.
He turned to Radicus.
"Sir all pilots are awaiting orders in the hangars", Cody said.
Radicus nodded.
"Good work commander", Radicus said.
"If I may add general", Cody said. "It's an honor working with you".
Radicus looked out through the main window.
"The honor is all mine commander", he said.
_The planet of Haash_
The CIS headquarters near Lamha at the planet Haash. In a large Cruiser in orbit is a woman sitis in the command chair on the bridge. The woman is young and have long black hair. Her skin is grey and almost insect like and her eyes red as blood.
Her skin is hard like if it was several layers. The head was much softer. The bridge are filled with droids.
"General", a droid officer said.
She glanced at him.
"Eh, our long range scans of Lamha have located a large Republican fleet moving in", the droid said.
"How many"? The female asked.
"Almost 60 Cruisers general", the droid said.
"Ready the Long-range Battery Cruisers to jump into position behind our fleet at Lamha", she ordered.
The females name is Nadijak. She is from the race of people called Vedaccian's. After a few minutes a droid commander turned to her.
"General the Republic fleet have left hyperspace and are firing at our fleet. They have launched fighters", he said.
"Get the Long-range Battery Cruisers into position", Nadijak ordered.
"Roger, Roger", the droid commander replied.
Nadijak was personally hand picked by count Dooku two years ago. She was horrified to hear about his death. For almost all her career she had met Radicus is many space battles. The commander turned back to Nadijak.
"Eh, general"? He asked.
"What"? She asked without intrest.
"What's the chance our Long-range Battery Cruisers can turned the tide at Lamha"? He asked.
Nadijak sigh.
"We have upgraded the main cannon so the Republic's shield are no match to them", Nadijak said. "Now move us to the battlezone".
"Roger, roger", the commander droid replied.
_Lamha_
"General the LRBC /Long-range Battery Cruiser) main battery is tearing through our shield like paper", Cody told Obi-wan.
"They weapon system is upgraded", obi-wan said and almost fell as the brideg shook.
Radicus saw another Curiser enter the enemy lines. It was big and pitch black. It was an Ohia Command Cruiser. Also the color told him who was on it.
"I be damned", Radius said.
He crossed his arms.
"I should have known it", he said.
"Orders Sir", Cody said.
The Republic Cruisers was being ripped apart by the LRBC.
"Call back the fighters", Obi-wan said.
"What"! Radicus said surprised. "Retreat"!
"We have no choice", Obi-wan said.
An explosion threw everyone to the ground. As he lay on the groudn Radicud looked at Nadijak's Command Cruiser.
"Commander, Pull our fleet back to Republic space", he calmly said.
"All fighter are back in their respective hangar", a trooper said.
"Hyperspace", Cody said. "Take us to hyperspace"!
"Next time my old friend", Radicus said.
Obi-wan helped him up.
"Are you okay"? Obi-wan asked.
"Yes I'm okay", Radicus said. "This is nothing but a setback. "Yesterday master Skywalker and Windu each took a system".
Radicus left the bridge and Obi-wan and Cody looked after him.
"Is he okay general"? Cody asked.
"I'm not sure", Obi-wan said.
_Ohia Prime 30 years ago_
30 years ago the Republic order sends soldiers, voluenteers and supplies to the Raak Federation after the civil war ended. The war went on for 20 years and destroyed most cities of the three planets in the system. These three planets are Ohia Prime, Ohia II and Ohia III.
The government was based on Ohia Prime. Duke Naal the Ruthless lost and was hanged as an old man and father to the current duchess took over. The Ohia Union replaced the Raak Federation. But the the new Union was in chaos.
A young girl moves slowly through the ruins of the once great Capital. She is a Vedaccian. It was raining heavily and it was dark. She watches as Republican ground Transports move through the street. Seeing the Republic felt her warm and a little happier inside.
A grenade launcher hits the first one and it goes up in flames. Republic troops exit and meet a terrorist group of both humans, some Vedaccian's and a dwarf like blue skinned race called Netulian's. Nadijak throw herself to the ground as Republican troops was fired at by a terrorist group.
As the blaster fire ended Nadijak felt a hand on her back.
"Are you alright child"? A male voice asked her.
The voice was friendly and she looked up. First she was afraid of him but she saw he held a deactivated lightsaber in his hand. Nadijak sat up and the jedi smiled at her while another man in brown clothes gave orders to some troops.
"Are you a jedi mister"? Nadijak asked as she wiped tear from her eyes.
"Yes, I am actually", he said and smiled.
He helped her to her feet. He held his hands on her left shoulder as he sat in front of her.
"Have you met any jedi before"? The jedi asked.
Nadijak shook her head.
"General, we need to get moving", a trooper said.
He wears a brown armor with a helmet and a blaster carbine in his hands.
"The sergeant's right master", the other jedi spoke.
He walked over to his master and the Vedaccian girl. Also he kneels by her.
"In a moment Qui-Gon", the master said.
The master stood up.
"Maybe I'll meet again child", he said.
Nadijak smiled at that thought.
"What's your name master jedi"? She asked.
"My names Dooku", the master replied.
