| Meanwhile, in the Oner system, Separatist forces continue to invade new systems while preparing for their next attack.
| |
|
General Grievous: Attack! Finish him!
| |
|
A single warrior must fight off the droid armies of the CIS…
| |
|
…Magna Guards approach the warrior…
| |
|
…and begin their attack…
CLANG!
| |
|
CLANG!
| |
|
…one Magna Guard is struck down…
THUD!
| |
|
…while the other Guard attacks from behind…
| |
|
…but the warrior is ready, taking the electro staff……the Guard is now defenseless…
| |
|
THUD! CRASH!
| |
|
…for a brief moment…………silence…
| |
|
…but only for a moment…
BANG!
| |
|
…another Magna Guard continues the attack…
| |
|
CLANG!
| |
|
…the warrior quickly disarms the droid…
| |
|
…then begins his own attack…
| |
|
…by slamming the droid against the wall……decapitating the Magna Guard…
CLANG! THUD!
| |
|
…the droid attempts a final attack…
| |
|
…but the warrior terminates the droid, without hesitation…
CLANG!
| |
|
General Grievous: Droidekas!
| |
|
…droidekas roll and disengage their blasters…
| |
|
…the warrior, still holding an electro staff,…
| |
|
…spears one droid…
BUZZZZTTT!
| |
|
…then, using the armor of one of the Magna Guards to absorb the laser blasts,…
| |
|
…approaches the other droid…
CRASH!
| |
|
…and easily defeats it…
| |
|
…but the battle is not over…
Battle Droid: Don’t move!
| |
|
Battle Droid: Hands up—bbbzzzzzzzzzzzzz
| |
|
Super Battle Droid: Terminate target!
| |
|
| |
|
…the warrior is victorious…
| |
|
…not everyone is pleased…
BUZZZZZZZ
| |
|
General Grievous: I’ll finish you myself!
| |
|
Count Dooku: Stop!
| |
|
Count Dooku: Lower your weapon. He has nothing more to prove, General.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Let me be the first to congratulate you, young warrior. Your reputation does not do you justice.
| |
|
Count Dooku: It is my privilege to meet the great Sagev. Allow me to introduce myself; my name is Count Dooku.
| |
|
Sagev: I know who you are, Count. You are known to the Outer Rim as the Hero that will defeat the Republic. And your praise is not necessary. My skills have become a necessary evil during this War.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Indeed……the War against the Jedi has destroyed countless lives. I am but a simple man, trying to bring peace to the galaxy. What are your views on this ongoing struggle versus the Republic?
| |
|
Sagev: My home planet of Utapau resides in the Outer Rim. My people are proud and strong. Yet, the current administrators have allowed Utapau to become weak, concerning themselves with only with their wealth.
Count Dooku: Very interesting.
| |
|
Sagev: Tion Medon does not agree with my views to maintain an army of Utapaun warriors. We MUST defend our home from anyone who attempts to invade! Due to my beliefs, I was labeled a terrorist and considered a threat to his power. Therefore, I was exiled from Utapau, never to return. The War will engulf Utapau, it is inevitable. And my people will die and suffer because of Medon’s ignorance!!!
| |
|
Count Dooku: Your story is similar to that of other Outer Rim worlds. The Jedi do not concern themselves with the safety of systems outside the Republic. Their Armies will invade any planet they feel is necessary to win this War. They cannot be trusted.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Every system that has joined the Confederacy now has the necessary means to defend themselves against the Republic. Perhaps we can offer that protection to Utapau……in exchange for your services. We could also……perhaps……encourage a new government……one……with a strong leader……
| |
|
Sagev: If it will save my people and end the reign of Tion Medon, I pledge myself to you and Separatist movement.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Excellent. With your assistance, Utapau can be spared the destruction of this War. But for now………please tell me more about your home planet, Utapau.
| |
|
…the warrior will serve us well, My Master.
General Grievous: ……Utapau……
