Moments before Sith Shuttle entered the atmosphere.
Havoc Squad Camp, Falleen.
John was inside his tent, when his planetary scanners went off. He stepped out of the tent and looked up into the sky, only to see a fleet of ships attacking Falleen defense fleet. This wasn't good, he thought, Falleen and us are screwed, if the attackers are either Sith or First Order. John tapped his commlink twice, to signal all members of Havoc to return to camp. Mic was already in the camp when John sent out a signal on the commlink, the first one to return to camp was Zeex, then Daxu. John cleared his throat before pointing up to the sky indicating that Falleen was under attack. "Alright, listen up. An unknown enemy is attacking and most likely will start to send in an invasion force. Our Job as of right now is to make sure that no transports get into the city from this way." John looked at his squad mates and saw that they all nodded their heads in agreement.
So, what's the plan sir?
John thought for a brief moment before answering Mic's question. "We have an anti-air missile, so we'll use it to shoot down any shuttle that comes our way. Once one shuttle goes down the chances of another one coming down the same way is highly unlikely. We will also deploy stationary defense turrets, that we'll activate once any enemy force is within our killzone. Any questions?" As no one said anything, John nodded his head and said, "Good, now let's get ready for some visitors." With that John put on his helmet and grabbed the anti-air missile launcher and prepared to fire the missile, while Mic and Zeex deployed three defensive turrets, Dexu took up a position that would allow him to snipe any incoming enemy soldiers.
The Sith Shuttle now entered atmosphere and was visible to the members of Havoc squad on the ground below.
John saw the shuttle and lined up his shot and pulled the trigger firing the missile at the shuttle, a few seconds after launching the missle John could see that it did hit the shuttle. The shuttle was now smoking and crashing, this was good news for John and Havoc. Shortly after John fired the missile, Mic and Zeex returned and found cover behind nearby rock formations. No one spoke on the comms as to not give away their positions away to the enemy.

Valafar and Raptor squad continued onward towards the Capital. The Commander had three of his men to scout the area ahead of them to ensure that whoever launched the missile was nowhere near them, since he couldn't be certain how many soldiers the enemy had deployed out here. They continued onwards for a few more moments before stopping, the three scouts had stopped behind several rock formations just before a clearing. Commander Piece crouched and moved slowly over to them.
Trooper, why did you stop?
Sir, stopped because of the clearing ahead. It would be a perfect place to set a trap, sir.
I see, doesn't look like any cover nearby either. We'll have to risk it, if we are to complete the mission. Stay here, I'll report back to Darth Verenhimo and see what he wants to do.
Commander Pierce made his way back to where Valafar was standing with the rest of Raptor squad, Piece stood up and began to explain the situation to the dark lord.
You see m'lord, the clearing ahead would be a perfect place for the enemy to set a trap or an ambush. What do you want us to do, sire?
Valafar took a step closer to see the clearing, he took a moment to analyze their current situation and try to come up with a solution to it. He reached out with the force trying to sense the presence of any force users in the area, when he was certain that there were not any, he raised his hand and picked up a rock with the force and sent it flying into the clearing. When the rock landed and nothing happen, Valafar stepped closer again and before he could speak a blaster bolt come from behind a rock and hit his right shoulder sending him backwards. All the while turrets activated in the clearing and proceeded to open fire on their position. Valafar stood up, still kind of dazed and found cover behind a rock with Commander Pierce.
"It would appear that you are correct Commander."
It would appear so sir, are you alright?
"I'm alright, don't worry about me. Just return fire!"
Yes sir, right away sir. Raptor Squad return fire!
With that order the clearing was now a battleground, the sounds of blaster fire could be heard several miles away.

A Clearing a few feet in front of Havoc squad's encampment.
John and his squad had moved closer to the turrets that Zeex and Mic had placed, in order to ambush the invading soldiers that the shuttle that they shoot down. Sargent Daxu was looking down the scope of his sniper rifle when he spotted the enemy soldiers approaching. Daxu recognized the insignia on their armor, it was the insignia of a sith spec ops team. Daxu had heard rumors about these guys and none of it was good, this spec ops team was like a sith version of Havoc squad. Daxu was counting the number of enemy soldiers, he counted fifteen men and women, just as he was about to take his eye off of the scope he saw a zabrak, with pale white skin, black tribal tattoos and blood red eyes. Looking away for a brief moment, Daxu passed a pair of binoculars over to the Major and pointed at the Zabrak, Dexter nodded and moved his hand telling Daxu to take the shot. Daxu lined up the shot and took it, as he took the shot Mic activated the three defense turret which proceeded to fire at the enemy. Mic fired up his heavy repeater blaster and started to fire upon the enemy soldiers hiding behind the rocks, Zeex activated his stealth field generator and proceeded to sneak around the turret and fire at the enemy soldiers from behind. John poked his head out of cover a few times to fire a couple of rounds at the sith soldiers. A few moments later one of the turrets was destroyed by a thermal detonator, now the clearing had flaming debris scatter around and a small crater were the turret was once. John seizing the moment after the turret exploded threw a thermal detonator of his own.

Battleground; Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.
With Raptor squad focused on taking out the turrets, Valafar looked over his armor and made note of the blast mark on his right shoulder. He was lucky that the shot didn't pierce the armor, his right shoulder did hurt everytime he moved it though. He would have to be careful, as it would seem that the enemy has a very skilled sniper in their ranks. Then an explosion went off, just a few feet away from him. Valafar cocked his head to the right, sensing movement coming from behind a group of rocks. He spun around just as an enemy soldier jumped down from a top of one of the rocks. Valafar caught the man in mid-air with the force and held him there, while looking over his would be assassin. Valafar chuckled to himself, at the thought of a Gand trying to kill him. Then out of nowhere Valafar heard a sound of a slug thrower and a sharp piercing pain coming his chest, while looking down he noticed, his blood seeping out of the his armor through the entry wound. Valafar started to concrete the force around the Gand's neck and started to apply pressure to it.

Battleground; Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.After throwing his thermal detonator, John opened his pack and grabbed another one, but before he could throw it the sith soldiers fired upon his position pinning him down. Daxu who was prone started to line up the shots and began to provide covering fire for John. Mic was still spraying down enemy troopers that came into his kill zone, all the while Zeex had sneaked over to the enemy position and was now climbing up a rock. Once he was at the top he looked down at the pale zabrak, while grabbing his Striker projectile pistol from his holster and proceed to jump. Zeex stopped mid-air, it would seem that this Sith had grabbed him with the force and was holding him in place. Zeex could still move his hand that had the Striker pistol in it, which meant that he could shoot this sith and maybe even kill him. As soon as Zeex heard the Sith chuckling to himself, he raised his hand up with the Striker projectile pistol in it and fired. Zeex could see the blood coming out of the wound, then it became harder and harder to breathe then nothing but the sound of his neck snapping. Daxu who was still looking through his scope saw Zeex's body in the air, firing his pistol and his neck snapping. Zeex's body dropped on the ground. Sir, Cipher's been killed."I see, well then we'll just have to avenge him and make sure these sith pay for it." John said with anger in his voice. It had been a long time since he had lost anyone. Every current member of Havoc squad, John himself recruited them into the squad. He had watched them grow as people and as a team, and while John wasn't displaying any emotion either than anger at the moment, Daxu could tell that Zeex's death would have it's toll on John. Mic having heard that Zeex died dropped his heavy repeating cannon and it's ammo pack and grabbed several thermal detonators and started to run like hell towards the sith who just kill his best friend. He once he got close enough, he lunged towards the sith lord, detonating the thermal detonators. Daxu and John could see if Mic had taken out the Sith or not as the smoke from the explosion hadn't cleared. John could not believe that Mic would sacrifice himself to try and take out the man who killed Zeex.

Battleground; Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.
The battlefield was quite as the smoke from the explosion cleared. Raptor squad soldiers stood in amazement as they saw Valafar still standing, and the enemy combatant lying on the ground lifeless. A closer look at the Sith would reveal that his cybernetic left arm was sparking and the hand was twitching, as well as the chest piece of his armor was charred and blackened. The fabric parts of Valafar's armor was melted and clung to the metal parts, Valafar now had burn marks on his throat and his jaw, hiding his clan sigil. His breathing was heavy and sounded like he had stained severe damage to his lungs and his vocal cords. Igniting the lightsaber pike, Valafar mustered his remaining strength and charged at the remaining Havoc squad members. As shots come at him, Valafar deflected them with his lightsaber pike.

Battleground; Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.
With the smoke cleared both John and Daxu made note that Mic died without taking out the lumbering Sith, who was now charging at them. Daxu started to fire shots from his sniper rifle at the Sith, but the shots were deflected. Daxu knew that he and John both couldn't escape turned to John and spoke.
Sir, you have to run. Warn the people in the city. I'll buy you enough time.
"I can't allow you to do that Daxu."
Sir, you have to. We are out numbered and out gunned, plus the people in the capital will need your help to defeat these guys.
"I don't like it, but I do see your point. I'll be back soon, with reinforcements." John then turned and started to sprint away from the battlefield towards the Falleen Capital. He hoped that Daxu could find some way to survive this. Then he heard another explosion, and something in his gut told him that Daxu was gone and that he was all that remained of Havoc squad. Tears rolled down his face hidden by his helmet, he would have to mourn his fallen squad mates later when it was safe to do so.

Battleground; Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.
Once Valafar reach the enemy sniper, he plunged his lightsaber pike into his chest. The Havoc squad sniper dropped to his knees and detonated the last thermal detonator causing Valafar to be caught in another explosion. This time though the Valafar was too close to the blast to avoid it, or to reduce the effects of the explosion. Valafar was sent flying backwards, dropping his lightsaber pike. Valafar felt as though the flesh on his legs was being melted. His back hit a big rock, which caused several bones in his back to fracture. Valafar looked down and saw that was missing his legs, and that the flesh surrounding the kneecaps were still on fire. He let out the most painful howl he could so that every trooper on the battlefield could hear him. Commander Pierce rushed over to him with several field medics and began to administer first aid. Pierce stepped away for a brief moment to contact any Blackguard forces in the city.
This is Commander Pierce, with Raptor Squad does anyone read me. We have engaged the enemy on the outskirts of the Capital and have sustained severe losses. We have severely wounded soldiers, Including Darth Verenhimo. He needs immediate medical attention. Does anyone read me?

We have engaged the enemy on the outskirts of the Capital and have sustained severe losses. We have severely wounded soldiers, Including Darth Verenhimo. He needs immediate medical attention. Does anyone read me? The speeder bike that Venom had commandeered was heading to his clan brother's location as fast as it would carry its rider. Throttle wide open, the wind tore at Venom, rushing loudly around him as he went. But none of that mattered. His brother was severely wounded. And whomever managed to do that to him, was about to pay for it, in the most gruesome ways possible. Venom would guarantee that. Channeling the Force as he sped onwards, he opened a link with Valafar through the Force, doing what he could to keep him alive. As he drew nearer, Commander Pierce's call came through. Wasting no time, Venom opened a comm channel with Commander Dennette onboard the Brotherhood.Commander. Get a medical evac to Pierce's location immediately! I am on my way.Without waiting for a reply, Venom leaned forward and twisted the throttle open as wide as it would go, redlining it. Feeling the ripple within the Force, he rose to his feet and launched himself from the bike, falling towards the jungle canopy below...

Battleground: Site of the Blackguard engagement with Havoc squad.
It wasn't long after Venom issued the commanded that a Medical evac arrived at the formal battleground where Valafar had been critically wounded. Two medics stepped off the shuttle and head for Valafar to try and stabilize him before the worse could occur. The medics from the shuttle along with the field medics spent hours on applying field treatment so that Valafar could be moved without killing him. Commander Pierce stood guard over Valafar while the medics worked away all the while waiting for Darth Wraak to arrive. Pierce had sent a squad of his best soldiers to track the remaining Havoc squad member, Pierce knew that Darth Wraak would want all information regarding the battle and the whereabouts of the remaining Havoc member. It had been a while since the squad reported in and that worried Pierce greatly.

Miles away from the battlefield.
John had been running since his last squad member had died saving him from certain death at the hands of the Sith. John had stopped to catch his breath and then he heard the sound of soldiers marching through the jungle behind him. John left his helmet on the ground and climbed up a tree to catch the soldiers off guard. Once safely in the tree, John noticed the soldiers surround the his helmet and started to radio back to their main battalion. John dropped one of his remaining thermal detonators down into the middle of the soldiers. The blast from the detonator killed the soldiers that had been tracking him, John climbed down and started to run again towards the capital city through the jungle.

Landing on the ground with a THUD, the Zabrak righted himself and strode over to his wounded brother as medics milled about, doing what they could to preserve the life of Valafar. Shock and horror crossed Venom's face. Bending a knee to his brother, he brushed dirt from his brother's forehead. Leaning in closely, he spoke softly."Brother...what have they done to you....? Who did this?"While his brother couldn't physically answer, harsh imaged flashed through his mind. Orange and white armored soldiers. A specific emblem appeared. And then a face. Eyes snapping open, Venom's dark side tainted eyes were ablaze with fury. Rising to his feet, the Zabrak spoke to his brother softly again."Rest now, brother. I will slay this fiend..."Striding over to a speeder bike that belonged to one of the recon troopers, Venom shoved the trooper off the bike and swung his leg up and over the seat. Taking off as fast as he could, the Zabrak was seeing red the more he focused on the face of the man who had hurt his brother to this extent. Using the Force to navigate the jungle, an explosion alerted him to the presence of the man he sought. Altering his course, he stood upon the seat and prepared to leap, lightsaber hilt in his hand. Mere seconds before the speeder bike was to run over the man that was running through the jungle, Venom gathered his energy and sprang up into the air, twisting so that he would land directly in the man's path. The speeder bike, now riderless, careened off into the underbrush and exploded into fiery shards. Landing on his feet, Venom glared at the man as he would come skidding to a halt before him...

John stopped dead in his tracks as an unknown Sith landed in front of him. John knowing that if he didn't act quickly this Sith would kill him were he stood, threw his second last thermal detonator at the sith and then fired his IR-5 Blaster Pistol at the detonator causing it to explode. During the blast John made a beeline towards the nearest entrance of the capital. John would only stop for a brief moments so that he could deploy his Prowler 1000 Exploration droid and have it transmit his iff tag, while having it travel in a different direction then himself.

Before Venom had a chance to react, the man was already moving. With speed honed by years of training, the lone soldier managed to free a Thermal Detonator and hurl it towards the Zabrak Sith. Before Venom could grab the device out of the air with the Force, the soldier fired at it. Diving off to his left, the Zabrak tucked and rolled as the grenade exploded. Shaken, but still relatively unharmed, Venom rose to his feet, teeth gritted. Desperation, born of survival. This man wanted to live, at all costs. Knowing that the soldier would like be at the Capital, due to their proximity to one of the city's entrances, Venom clipped his saber hilt at his waist and began jogging towards the city, intent on murdering this soldier in the most gruesome fashion possible...

Commander Pierce sat beside Valafar as the medical evac shuttle flew back towards The Executioner in orbit. The medics had managed to stabilize the towering sith lord was a good thing however they had told the Commander that the dark lord would require surgery and that there was a high chance that the Doctors would have to amputate his legs, which could be replaced with cybernetic legs and that there was heavy damage to the sith lord's throat and lungs. The medics were unsure what the doctors would have to do to fix the damage to the throat and lungs but a respirator was most likely.

Emergency Rendezvous. - Falleen forest LZ.
The Brotherhood was hovering just above the treetops, as the rest of the Blackguard ground forces were retreating to this location. Having been driven from Capital City, the ship needed to keep a low profile while the collected the rest of their troops. This was an utter failure. Lord Wraak wouldn't be pleased. And neither would the Sith'ari...Commander Dennett was grateful he only had to report to Wraak, rather than the Sith'ari...because he didn't want to be around when that conversation went down.

Scouting parties of both Organization and Falleen soldiers began pushing deeper into the forests surrounding Capital City, in an attempt to locate and possibly even stop the Sith from retreating. So far the scouting parties had only found small pockets of soldiers falling back, and none seemed to be falling back in the same direction, which made tracking them much more difficult. But with the city secured and the fighting beginning to slow in orbit, it seemed as though the Falleen would emerge victorious this day.

Ndlovu Province - Capital
With just under 180,000 inhabitants the provincial kingdom of Ndlovu is not the largest kingdom on Falleen, nor so far as official records are concerned is it the wealthiest or most influential even though its Matriarch, Xiù, has amassed over the course of her 140 year long life span both hidden wealth and influence over other kingdoms on Falleeen as well as organizations of many kinds on other worlds.
The only child of Ndlovu's previous ruler, King Xiaodan, Xiù had succeeded her father upon his death and, so far as the outside world and universe are concerned had not expanded her kingdom, merely preserving it as it had been at the time of her father's death. In truth, Xiù has little hand in the day to day affairs of Ndlovu, having entrusted its management to Hegemons that have proven themselves competent and who were rewarded with wealth and prestige enough to guarantee their loyalty, preferring instead to pursue the interests that she had acquired when taking the pilgrimage most Falleen Princes and Princesses take into the wider galaxy had made her aware of her Force Sensitivity and fostered in her a thirst for knowledge of the Dark Side and the power to be gained from its mastery.
History having taught her that subtlety and keeping one's proverbial and literal hands clean often enables one to enjoy the benefits mastery of the Dark Side can bring without courting the interruptions or end other more overt practitioners of the Dark Side often meet, Xiù has learned the art of acting through others and of concealing her true nature behind the guise of a kindly Matriarch that is perhaps more interested in academic pursuits than in extending her kingdom's power and influence.
As she sits in her office and absently reviews the reports from her Hegemons, Xiù receives an encrypted message from one of her current agents, a Force Sensitive Arkanian Offshoot currently on Arkania and tasked with determining whether the rumors of a previously undiscovered section of Veeshas Tuwan being found and possibly containing artifacts that would increase her knowledge and command of the Dark Side. Xiù, learning from her agent that she is not the only one interested in what may have survived the destruction of Veeshas Tuwan, pauses to consider how best to deal with the Jedi Archaeologist before instructing her agent to merely observe the Jedi's progress from a distance for the time being; the account of the sole survivor from a group of miners that had allegedly stumbled onto the lost section of Veeshas Tuwan suggest that it has traps and other dangers protecting what treasures it contains, and Xiù sees no reason not to let the Jedi deal with them or be dealt with by them before her agent needs to put herself at risk. Should the Jedi make it to Veeshas Tuwan's surviving treasures, the Offshoot can eliminate her then.
Returning her attention to the reports from her Hegemons, Xiù approves their suggestions for what actions they should do about their military and naval forces without paying a great deal of attention to them as the Hegemons have proven their acumen where such matters are concerned in the past, most recently when, while she was offworld to acquire a tome of ancient Sith writings, they had managed to rid Falleen of both the Organization's influence and the most recent forces attempting to occupy the planet.
