Luxeria watched as the two remaining Jedi changed their approach, switching to a single blade on their staves. they were just as ready to end this as she was and, as far as she could tell, wasn't expecting her feint. Still, she couldn't get overconfident. She had to approach this carefully, time it just right. Otherwise, it could still be her head well all was said and done.
Suddenly, she felt the storm above them disperse as the remaining seventeen Jedi quelled the storm with their power. far from an easy task, one that involved quite a few over a solid few minutes. It showed just what her master had been capable of conjuring and what it took to dispel it. And with the task done, they all fell. At least she wouldn't have to worry about being pursued from behind. All she had to do was finish the final two. And the storm's end meant nothing at this point. They had made land fall and caused chaos within the temple. Even now the Jedi weren't fully prepared to defend their borders, of that she was sure. She could only hope that their frontal assault made a clear path for Vasari's insertion.
Not a few moments more passed before she felt the Force bare down on her, pushing her to the ground. It was strong no doubt, though it'd take a bit more to fully immobilize her. Still, fighting it was a wasted effort. It still bore on her, slowing her down. Attacking would still end her if she tried pushing through it. Instead, she chose to use it. She let her body shake a bit, before growing as she dropped to a knee, playing the idea that she was too weak at this point to resist their assault on her. Then she let her left hand slip from her hilt to the ground to brace herself from being pushed completely into the ground with her saber hanging low a bit out to her side.
As she underwent this facade, she watched as Viox's assault proved successful, bursting through the door and clearly opening the way inside. Yet, it wasn't a moment or so later that the door came flying back out. Any Sith who were in the way dodged it with aid of the Force while some of the soldiers were flattened by its force. There were those at the door, waiting for the battle to enter its halls. The question was, were they ready for them all?
Needless to say, it meant she had no more time to waste. She had to end the duo and rejoin her master.

And just like that, the door was spent. Inward, the door crumbled. And then there was a twinge within the Force. Closing his eyes and focusing on the space directly in front of his person, the remains of the door rained back towards him. Those less fortunate were flattened by the sudden change. Others managed to leap aside or shield themselves. Viox merely allowed it all to flow around him, standing there as everything washed past him. Climbing up the last two steps and proceeding forward, the Zabrak shrugged off his cloak and stopped in the threshold as blaster fire rang out around him. Eyes slowly scanning, he spotted the white saber held defensively. Instinctively, he knew that was the target he wished to engage. While the corners of his mouth twitched upward in a small smirk, the Zabrak extended his right hand, channeling the Force. Electricity crackled between his fingertips as he directed the Force-fueled lightning across the room to his intended target. The blue-white arcs dancing through the space between them, connecting with pillars, walls, people and whatever else stood in the way...

Luxeria smirked inwardly as with each action she took, they moved closer. Either she was a good actor or they were completely stupid, convinced they had succeeded in bringing her to her knees. A lesson they’d never get the chance to regret.
Suddenly, she could feel the two blades close to her neck as they stood over her. Even still, they didn’t want to take the chance she’d make a move against them. With their weapons so close to her throat as well as the pressure they continued to bare upon her, it would be easy to end her if she attempted to resist. She looked up at the before giving a forced looking smirk, like someone trying to be defiant in their final moments before dropping her head again. Giving a deep breath, she did as they asked, opening her hand and letting her saber fall to the ground.
But that was when she made her move. She wasn’t out of gas yet and she had so much at her disposal this time around. With all the fallen Jedi behind them, she had quite a few weapons to take from their person. With a sudden surge of the Force, six of the saberstaves flew up from their dead wielders and came to life as they flew at the backs of the Jedi, three for each. If they didn’t react in time or together, they’d fall by the blades of their comrades. If they did, their attention would be redirected from her, letting off the pressure. From their, a single wide strike across their backs, deep enough to cut them through, would be their end. Two sides, two attacks. The question was were their senses strong enough to prepare them for her attack?

The Sith lady had opted to choose to seal her fate, the duo now felt they had no choice but to incapacitate her through more physical and likely harmful means, they would work to debilitate her with the minimal amount of suffering, but of course that was now relative to her compliance and she had shown that when downed she would not lie down and be counted out. |

By jumping to the sides, they had avoided both the attack from the backs by the six saberstaves and her attack when they would have turned. She let herself stand straight, her lightsaber humming at her side. The six had passed her and began to circle around her as she called them back. Even now, their senses were good and it seemed they wouldn't be easily fooled by deceptive attacks. And they now knew she was playing with them with her exhaustion. She gave an agitated sigh.
"You are only delaying the inevitable. You cannot win this."
Suddenly, her eyes opened wider, her green eyes now a burning orange color. The darkness began to swell around her, as her presence began to feel like a burning fire. If she a Force-sensitive were to give off an aura when focusing on the Force, her's would appear as a raging flame. With a swift motion, her hands came up from her sides, lifting to reside just above her shoulders. In this action, she drew on the Force, pulling at their legs to send them to their backs and pulled them towards her. After a second, she'd send her hands outward, three of the the saberstaves heading at each of them, spinning quickly in attempt to make it difficult to deflect them all.

"There's no better time to prove oneself as a Jedi," the Master had said. That was all well and fine in concept, but in reality Cao was ill-equipped as he currently stood. He had defended bases against the Sith, to be sure, even single-handedly holding the defense of Haruun Kal until the Temple's ultimate and mutual destruction. He had faced impossible tasks before, stared death in the eyes, walked forth into the swirling dark and emerged seemingly unscathed.. all while having his weapon at his side. Right now, he had nothing.
As he darted through the halls, making his way towards the base's armory and simultaneously hoping that the Sith invaders hadn't made it there already, he could almost hear a voice saying something about a Jedi needing only the Force. Sure, that was true in most cases, but in the event of a full invasion? Cao would feel much better with his lightwhip planted firmly in his hand.
So he ran through the corridors, the sounds of combat and security personnel forming a constant background ambience. All around him, darkness had gathered, and it was still gathering; he could feel it pulling at his senses, resonating with so many here..

As the door shattered and splintered, so did Eruestan's concentration on his Battle Meditation. Luckily, the Grandmaster had caught the door and sent it back at the enemy. Eruestan stood and drew his golden bladed saber. Looking to his apprentice to make sure she was still alright, he gave Maggy a nod before turning his attention back to the approaching darkness. And not a moment too soon as an almost wave of lightning speed toward Aerandir, rather indiscriminate of what or who it hit on its way. Throwing up his hand to block the lighting from himself and Maggy, Eruestan stood his ground. The energy absorbed from the lighting helped him recover from his use of Battle Meditation, giving him more confidence as he stood his ground and waited for his own challenger.

Maroth stood his ground as the Sith Lord casually walked through the rumble that had once been the door, then threw an indiscriminately large Force Lightning at the Jedi holding the white-bladed saber. Behind him another Jedi holding a golden lightsaber blocked the remaining lightning.
Immediately upon assessing the reactions of the Jedi, Maroth threw his saberstaff at the Sith. It made a curving arc that was as beautifully executed as it was lethally precise. If the Sith did not in some manner evade the staff, it would cut him down from his left side. Maroth was not done however, if the arcing saber was a hammer, then he was to be the anvil. All the Force energies coursing around and about him disappeared as he compressed himself in a manner like that of an athlete getting ready to start a race. Those energies hadn't vanished; however, Maroth had pulled and focused everything inside his body. To his perception, everything slowed down as the synapses in his brain began firing several times faster than normal as his very cells were buffered by the Force. While this would allow him speed rivaling that of Mach 2, it was something he could only use a few times a day, only in straight lines, and only for short distances.
The stone beneath his right foot cracked and then it appeared as if for a moment he disappeared. His speed greatly exceeded that of eyesight and only his Force-assisted Sithspawn body allowed him to stop just behind and to the left of the Sith. Maroth pivoted clockwise by stepping back with his right foot and twisting his upper body allowing him to add even more velocity to a backhanded strike made with his closed fist. He had essentially given the Sith three options. Either move forward into the room and avoid everything, focus on the saberstaff and take a powerful strike full on, or to block the strike and get hit by the saberstaff.
This positioning was not by chance. According to his tactics, if the Sith didn't somehow slippery his way out, he would have made the Sith move into the room to engage the Jedi already there. It would allow Maroth to put his size, speed, and ferocity to best use in holding back the invasion seeking entrance into the Temple.

*The stage had been set. It seemed fate had already brought an opponent to Aerandir personally, the apparent strongest of all those who stood outside the door. A Zabrak, large, imposing... and unflinching. The Sith reached out, lightning dancing through the air towards the Jedi. Aerandir lowered his saber hand and extended his left, palm outward, a Force field forming and catching the blasts aimed directly towards him. Quickly realizing the attack's spread was even wider, the field grew, catching and absorbing the last of it, but not before it could strike an unfortunate few.
Then the Sithspawn engaged. Aerandir waited. It was on the apparent lead Sith to respond properly. The Jedi would pick up afterward...*

*The arrival of the Grand Master and his calm response to the onslaught gave Maggy a strange sense of peace. The way he approached the situation, completely ready to defend, and even readily countering the enemy's attempts to bust the door down... Briefly, her mind flashed back to that day so many years ago, when her would-be assailants towered over her, only for this very same man to come to her rescue. To ensure her safety.
To give her the gift of studying at the Jedi Temple.
The crackling lightning snapped her out of her reverie, threatening to shatter the peace she had found... but again, Aerandir Calmcacil rebuffed the attack. So too did her new Master. The peace returned, strengthening her determination as her hands tightened on the hilt of her saber. She took a breath, exhaled, and waited for the true fight to begin.*

It would prove difficult and possibly fatal to fend of the force assault in conjunction with the assault that followed, so the duo did not move to waste energy, time and focus, but rather use the attack to their joint advantage.
The duo slid, notably since they were both being simultaneously pulled from their ankles they were pulled toward the Sith Lady, one from the right and one from the left, sliding along the ground on their backs however proved advantageous since being half dragged across the ground gave the spinning staves a smaller target area or more accurately it presented the front of their prone bodies as the target area, as they had half fallen, half proppelled themselves the Jedi had brought their hilts to be held at chest height, a snap hiss announced the reawakening of the second blade, then they drew their knees up towards their chests and rotated their hilts so they span in front of their moving prone forms creating a whirling vortex rotor blade of energy which was sufficient enough in that moment to reflect the incoming assaults.
The duo whilst prone and having slid sufficiently across the ground by the joint combination of their own efforts and her helpful force assistance they were able to simultaneously slice at her with lateral strikes that were a fluid continuation of their already windmilling blades. The Jedi to her left slicing low at calf height, the Jedi to her right by lifting her hands upward raised the level of her strike to slice at just below waist height.

The test of focus and will continued on between the Jedi pair and Sith. However, the prolonged battle was beginning to irk her, mostly for the fact that the door had been breached and it was time to invade the Jedi's home. But despite this, she kept herself focused on the battle. She couldn't afford to let any of her emotions get the better of her. Passion, anger, and hatred all fueled a Sith's power, but if not managed properly, if allowed to fester due to an opponent's abilities and capabilities, it would only spell doom for the practitioner of the dark. She had to remember that, had to remember how her emotion on Mustafar had taken hold of her,made her a slave to her own craving of power. It was a mistake she'd make sure to never repeat.
Even while being pulled towards her and three saberstaves coming at each of them, the duo had still proven to be capable of staying focused as well as alive. It only further seemed that her attack ended up aiding them. But their next attack seemed far less effective than before. the attacks prior had left her little room to maneuver free, always putting her into another position to be attacked. this was not the case this time. The height of the attacks were too low to be of true benefit as even a simple jump, without aid of the Force, could easily clear the blades. Not even a flip was needed. Their flow of momentum was as well a boon to them as well. As the first blades came at her, she suspected they had enough focus to angle their hilts to try and strike at her as she attempted to dodge.
A risk, but one she felt confident she could overcome. As the first blades came, she jumped up into the air, pushing herself forward so that she'd land further behind them. Not only was this in attempt to gain a bit of ground, but to keep the second blades from reaching her. As tuned as their senses were, there was a point, she discovered, where it meant nothing and balanced out when facing another opponent that was equally tuned to what was happening. Propelling herself forward as the first blades made their slash would cut down the time they could adjust their hilts as well as the distance, letting her missing being attacked as she let her legs fold up underneath her to ensure extra clearance.
But that wasn't all she did. As she jumped and folded her legs, she let herself spin in the air to face her opponents so to be on the assault the very instant she could. And that instant was the moment her eyes caught sight of the enemy. Not even waiting to touch down, she focused the Force around the two Jedi, gripping them with it. It wouldn't be anywhere tight enough to crush their bodies, but enough to hold them and move them with a quick movements. And that was what she did. Reaching out her her hands, she dropped her lightsaber and lt it fall to the ground as she closed her fists before shoving her hands hard into each other.
Her goal was to slam the Jedi hard into each other's backs. The force of impact wouldn't cause any real damage, but aimed to disorient them long enough for her to finally finish them. If she was lucky, their heads would meet, only further disorienting them.

The attacks missed, for that was half of the purpose after all, the duo had only attacked in such a fashion to force the Sith Lady to indeed leap, as she leaped they began to rise to standing positions once more. There was a sudden spike in the force, one of malicious intent, both sensing danger, then they felt an invisible hand ensnare each of them, upon feeling the tightening sensation they were both quickly thrown, both toward the other. There was little chance to defend against such an attack, yet as before this wasn't necessary, for upon feeling the tightening around them, the Jedi were already moving, reacting, the force flooding through their bodies allowing synapses and muscle fibres to work faster. The athleticism, speed and agility of each amplifier and at the start of the pull they jumped into the air, twisting as they leaped, the duo pirouetting, one leaping more forward the other to the back, at the point they would have collided they passed one in front of the other and landed knees bent onto the ground. Then reaching out with the force the right most Jedi launched the dropped hilt towards her, activating the blade with the use of telekinesis the blade traveling spear like toward her chest, this was accompanied by the bursting forward of the duo, still flooding the force through their bodies in a final burst of speed they accelerated toward her, quickly covering the distance. They sprang into action the right most Jedi (Luxeria's right) holding her staff in her right hand alone made as if to slice diagonally at the South's right shoulder, the blade whizzing from left to right in what appeared to be a diagonal slice, of course the movement was one of deception, for as soon as Luxeria would move to meet the incoming strike the path of the blade would alter, a simple flick of the wrist could orientate the saber to strike at a section Luxeria may leave open. Simultaneously the left Jedi performed a lateral strike from right to left and attempted to drive her right leg around so as to circle around and get behind Luxeria in a psuedo matador fashion.

It could be safe to say she underestimated the Jedi before her. Such swift abilities utilized in mere seconds and they still somehow seemed to avoid them. But they underestimated her determination, her will.
She landed as the Jedi took to the air to avoid her grip in the Force. She guessed her hold on them wasn't as strong as she intended. It wasn't a mere push of the Fore to shove them into each other, but a grip as if using a Force Choke, yet, the suddenness of it must have rendered it much weaker than she anticipated. Something to take note of for the future. It was quick and faint, but as they took to the air, her eyes caught the glint of gold and black. The Felucia sun that was starting to shine from the remnant clouds above reflected off her own hilt. That and the flow of the Force around her and not around the Jedi alerted her to their attempt to kill her with her own weapon. She tilted herself to the side, turning her left shoulder to let it pass by. From there, she watched as the duo made a quick attack against her, using the Force to speed their actions, hoping to overpower her reflexes.
She had grown tired of this little dance between them. She was growing more and more frustrated, yet, at the same time, she was losing interest in the fight. Clear enough was what needed to be done. These two liked to stay on the move, used their movements to keep ahead of her attacks. Then all she needed to do, was render them unable to do so. As they came in for their attacks, Luxeria didn't move, or not in the way they would have imagined. Her hands came up, one pointed at each of them. From previous attacks, they could assume her to use Force Lightning on them. Such a thought could possibly alter their attacks to more defend themselves and disrupt where their slashes fell, though their momentum would have kept them moving forward. But that wasn't what she did.
Once again, she extended her reach into the Force around them. But instead of gripping them as she had before, she commanded the Force to freeze them in place, to arrest their movements completely. Their actions had led to her changing mindset into how to bind them, just as it had in altering her mindset into finally allowing her to use Force Flight. And so, she had utilized Force Stasis Field on them to freeze them both and stop their attacks and movements dead. It would bind them in place, holding them until Luxeria released her sway over them. They could resist, use the Force to push back, but from here, they'd see how strong her mind was, how hard she worked to enact the control she held.
While being held, he would take steps back away from them, not letting her eyes drift away. She wasn't about to let anything disrupt her control, not even turning around. After a few steps, her foot brushed against on of the hilts that laid behind her. One of the saberstaves she had been using. Bending down to pick it up, she kept her eyes focused before moving back to them, saber lit. One at a time, she'd kill them by taking their heads.

The force acted on them in a manner they had not experienced, nor were expecting. It was like when one watches a holodrama and puts it on pause to make a cup of caf, their bodies were there's, they could feel them, but it were as though they had been dipped in carbonite. They were fixed, their minds raced to find a way to repel the attack, but this power was not an aspect of the force they were familiar with, this was not just control, but mental manipulation, it was by her sheer force alone, a single resolute thin needle like thought, indomitable in nature. Their eyes could do naught but watch as she slowly, playfully cruelty moved to take the first head, Luxeria's eyes moving to watch the remaining Jedi as she slowly sliced through, the saber blade cleaved through the neck before she approached the last Jedi defender, with a playful smirk on her lips, she came so close to her face the final remaining defender could feel her hot breath on her cheeks, then searing pain and nothing but darkness. Releasing her control the bodies dropped to the ground with a thump.

And like that, the fight was over. Her breath began to grow heavy as she let herself relax a bit now that she didn't have a number of Jedi on top of her trying to end her life. Letting the saberstaff slip from her hand and fall to the ground, she let herself fall to a knee. She was starting to grow a bit tired physically, though she still had more than enough to keep her going, not to mention the adrenaline that would come from those that would come next.
But the fight had taken a greater toll of her Force reserves than she would have liked. Then again, what was she expecting. She didn't know the significance of the Jedi Brute, but she saw that they were strong, capable, and extremely practiced when working in tandem with each other. Ten had fallen due to her skills in deception and using the distractions around her to her advantage. And now she had eliminated three more all at once. It was indeed one of her hardest fights. Guess that was the price she paid for desiring stronger opponents and tougher fights. With her reserves low, she needed to take a moment to try and restore them a bit and hope she could manage without it if needed. It was too bad the Dantari crystal in her left bangle had yet to be tuned and given life like her lightsaber crystals. It would have done well to help keep her reserves up a bit better. She'd have to crack down on that task and get it done.
But still, she had gained new insights through this battle, new mindsets in which to use her powers. She had awakened Force Flight and Force Stasis Field. Those two powers alone had done a number on her but she was stronger for it. New avenues for defeating her enemies had been revealed to her. Looking back toward the doorway, she saw that Viox had already entered and the glow emitted from his lightning barrage could be seen flashing inside.
Taking a nother deep breath, she steadied herself before standing to her feet and running over to where her lightsaber had been sent. Knowing they'd be a burden to her, she left the saberstaves on the ground for now, but made a mental note to return and grab a couple for trophies. Looking back to the bodies of the Brutes that laid upon the ground, she took off to rejoin her master.

*The landing had been rough, the mere effort necessary to sustain their own landing seemingly expending unnecessary energy that could have been better served against the defenses of the planet. Nothing regarding the landing plan sat well with Sobrius, who preferred a more direct approach; which, as he soon discovered, would have varied little from their attempt at a surprise. For he had felt the presence of Aerandir Calmcacil even before Savage began his assault upon the door. In a feat Sobrius would have found surprising were he not aware of the ability the Jedi had displayed upon Caamas, the door simply reversed and fell upon the Sith forces.
Sobrius held his position, watching. Between the defenders of the entrance and the Grand Master himself holding off the Sith'ari, direct entry here would be difficult. But all fortresses had some kind of hangar... and, right on cue, he saw the additional forces of Lord Bladeweaver descending on the base. Smirking, Sobrius knew where he would be better served and disappeared from the forces throwing themselves against the entrance, making swift pace towards the secondary insertion point...*

With the aid of the Shuko Vasari made it over the wall moments - her natural strength hardly even challenged even without the assistance of the force to grant her strength. The Quey'tek meditation kept her shielded from any form of detection through the force, at the expense of her calling on its power. Crouched at the top of the wall shrouded in her black cloak she quickly surveyed the base before her, her eyes moving from building to building searching for her target. Leaping from the top of the wall she hit the ground tucking her legs beneath her and rolling into the shadow of a building near the wall. Her hearts were beating quickly now but she fought the urge to accept the rising excitement of the situation. She took a slow deep breath before skirting her way along the backside of the building and deeper into the Base structure.
Disconnected from the rest of the strike team she had no way of knowing how the rest of the mission was fairing - but she pressed on focusing on her task and trusting the rest of her team to accomplish theirs. If the readout from Viox' AI had been accurate the Archive building would be just on the other side of the armory nestled near the center of the base - typical of the Jedi to protect knowledge above all else. Moving around the Armory building giving that place a wide berth she kept her eyes sharp for sentries and other guards - people moving about in the confusion. As she neared the center of the base she found it harder to avoid casual contact with passers by and the army that had seemingly quickly assembled to fight them. Once more using her Shuko she scaled the building nearest her - deciding to go the rest of the way out of sight - on the rooftops - at least that is what she had hoped.

Howls and screeches would be heard from behind the Jedi forces coming from a hallway leading toward the Hangar Bay of the Jedi base. Moments later, 20 vornskr sized creatures appeared from the hallway, fangs bared as they raced for the defending forces flank. Hoping to catch the Jedi defenders off guard and provide an opening for the rest of the Blackguard forces to make their way into the Temple. They would be no real match for any of the Jedi and their lightsabers, but they would prove distraction enough that the bottleneck might be broken
