"Escorting the civillians remains our top priority." Came Davith's reply. The words 'Take no prisoners' briefly passed through Merryn's mind, despite the Jedi code. It would make things easier... It would be difficult enough to protect the Durese as well as prisoners. Luckily, the enemy they fought today was not usually the type to surrender, "Leave incapicitated enemies where they are." It was a vague answer, and the Twi'lek did not deign to delve any deeper into the issue...<br/><br/>Meanwhile... Almost a dozen blue-armored neo-crusaders rushed out into an open hallway, no more than ten feet wide, to take up positions of cover as they readied their rifles. Those closest to the door knelt down while those behind them took aim over their heads and shoulders, weapons readied.<br/><br/>A noise echoed through the chambers, of assault ships attaching themselves to the spacedock. The Mandalorians looked up and around as it shuttered through the hall. They finally turned their gaze back upon the airlock. It sizzled as the Republic ship burned an entrance for the troops within... After a few moments, the door blasted open and the inexperienced Neo-Crusaders averted their gaze from the sparks. Instantly, they shot into the smokey darkness, their bolts finding only the blade of one veridian lightsaber that glowed through the smoke.<br/><br/>Merryn leapt forth out from the obscuration, blade whirling as she ducked and weaved through the blaster bolts and deflected them harmlessly off to the side. She made her way to what would be her first kill of the war, a kneeling Neo-Crusader who took aim as his comrades fired over his head. In one fluid motion, the Jedi knight cut through from under his arm all the way through diagonally to his shoulder blade. He fell backwards and his weapon dropped to the ground.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://s4.postimage.org/2k9hwy2hw/Duro_Docks2.jpg) (http://postimage.org/image/2k9hwy2hw/)<br/><br/>Place yourselves anywhere within your respective ships.

One of them rolled a 1.  :P<br/><br/>Send me a PM when you're ready, Carni. And I'll whip up a map for Shaala and Merryn's sections as well.<br/><br/>On a related note, that map took way too long.  :o</div></div>
