Operation: (Broken) Promise- Principal Authors: Crystaall (list)
- Who can post on this thread: Crystaall(list)
- I want to receive critical responses: Y
- I will be using standard Universe rules here (e.g., canon-only, fleet limits, etc.): Y
Location: Starts in the Underworld of CoruscantTimeframe: 2 months after the Battle of Contruum*The utter silence in the Dragon Hawke sent a chill thrrough many of the crew member's spines.. All but Crystaall's. She stood there, in the small Corellian YT-1300, with her arm resting on the right wall, closest to the ramp. Her crimson spartan armor sparkled with the dimmed lights within the ship. In both her hands rested her most precious lightsabers. Across from her, stood her daughter Lauara, in green tinted mandolorian armor. She held a long handle, with emitters on both sides, an average saber staff. On the opposite side of the ship, four men, reffered to as Squadron 99, suited up into their old clone trooper armor. John, Max, Rick and Thomas looked at each other and nodded, checkkng their E-11 rifles. The pilot, a rodian smuggler named Gergkast (Grey-cast) began to lower the Hawke into the depths of Coruscants Underworld. He stopped it close to a wall at its entrance and lowered the ramp. The four soldiers approached the two women, and John nodded toward Crystaall.* =Crystaall= "Alright people. This might be our last fight. Make any sacrifice that gives the rest an advantage and don't die for anything stupid.. Operation: Promise is a go. See you on the ground!" *Crystaall saluted her squad and nodded toward her daughter. She then ran off the ramp and began to sink into the depths of the criminal underworld.*

*The air almost felt like a cushion, making her feel safe, but she knew better. Crystaall was free-falling to the base ground of the Underworld. Her reflexess and awareness within the force helped her glide down with ease, avoiding the many starships. She could hear Lauara's screams of joy and Rick's foul language through the deafening wind. She could see the ground now. Pressing the button on her wrist, a schute popped out and let her slow down. Once she was 10 feet from the ground, Crystaall let go of the paraschute and fell, boots smacking the ground and making the ground almost tremble. One after another, each did the same and followed her lead. They trusted their lives to her. Trusted her too much in her own opinion.*
*Darkness was everywhere. 'To be this far down and not know how to kill a man gets yourself killed.' Her teacher taught her that. A wise man, but never on his guard.*
=Crystaall= "Night vision! You're no use to me blind. John, go thermal and give me an outlay."
*John switched his clone visor to thermal and began to construct a holographic outlay using a miniature holo-projector. The outlay was a town with numerous guards and a highly defended building with the old Sith Empire logo. John pointed to many areas where they could get spotted from.*
=John= "I know I have no right to speak, but this is suicide. Your brother has too many guards and outposts. We'd never get through."
=Crystaall= *She smirked at her friend.* "This is a cake walk troops. Thomas, take first outpost and cover with sniper fire. John, take the rest of the squad to sneak around the left while me and Lauara go for the right. Go."
*Everything was executed in a timely fashion. Thomas' assassination of the first outpost guard was perfect, while Rick and John snapped and broke necks of unaware soldiers. Crystaall and Lauara beat the hell out of their side, leaving the troops unconscious, bleeding and in lots of pain. Thomas took out all five duty guards without a twitch, they guarded the most important building.*
=Rick= "He's still hiding after this chaos? This is a trap..."

*Crystaall patted John on the shoulder. She gave hime a serious look and all he did was nod. Crystaall and Lauara both walked to the doors that ultimately sealed their fate. She looked back and smiled at John.*
"I promise, we will stop his dark reign. Just wait here for me."
*After saying this, both women stepped in with no thought of turning back.*
*Once inside they looked around and saw they stood in one big room. It was filled with computer consoles. And about a hundred troops stood in their way. They were all clad in black Imperial Dark trooper armor. They held modified E-11 blaster rifles.*
=Lauara= "So are we doing a 50/50 thing, or you want to rampage it."
=Crystaall= "Be my guest, but I do remember beating you in everything else count wise."
*Both women ignited their blades and began to annihalate the enemies in front off them. Crystaall's two purple blades, spun around and struck each opponent down with brutal force. Men flipped, fell and crashed to the floor with her powerful strikes of Juyo. Lauara's dual-bladed saber with yellow blades, striked the troops in her path left and right. Her flips and strikes at limbs left her enemies in pieces, which showed how quick she mastered the form of Ataru. Each troop was taken down with lethal force.. The room was filled with the smell of burnt rubber and an indescribable scent of death.*
*Only one door was in the room that led to a new area. Crystaall hesitated, to let Lauara stay behind, but decided to allow her company. She was family after all.*

*Crystaall opened the door and looked inside to see a massive complex with long walkway, barely fit for two people. Looking down, she saw only water, and no means to escape if one fell down there. It would waste a person's energy to even try and use the Force for such a height. As she looked around some more she saw towers that held energy crystals in them. Crystaall looked at Lauara and both took off their armor, revealing matching blue pants and boots made out of phrik. Lauara styled a white tank top, while Crystaall only wore a red bra to keep her chest stable. Lauara looked at her mother, shaking her head and sighing.*
=Lauara=
"Mother... you're such a slut. I mean come on! Who are you trying to impress? Most men already look at you."
=Crystaall=
"I don't expect you to take pride in your body. Your so focused on finding your darker self you dont notice the things you can do with a little combat training."
=Dreshkahi=
"Such bickering will get you nowhere! Face me now, dear sister. Or will your daughter humor me with tricks of lightning?"
=Lauara=
"You mocking bastard!"
*Lauara's anger rose as she pushed passed her mother, putting Crystaall off balance and nearly falling. Lauara ran at Dreshkahi who was cloaked in a black cape, and she opened her left palm, allowing bolts of lightning to spark out of her hand and strike at him. Dresh simply smiled and threw the cloak down and putting his right hand out to absorb the lightning. He stood there with shaggy and wild black hair, in a simple shirt with cargo pants, both in simple black. His eyes were wide and sparkling red, the sign of one who has lost control of himself. He laughed at Lauara as he pulled out his own saber and ignited it. Its red blade revealed his scarred face. He used the Force to push her back, her body slamming into the side of the door. Crystaall activated one of her purple blades and charged at her brother. He backed up after each strike, chuckling as he did so. Left to right, right to left, up then down, down then up; Dresh was blocking every blow she dealt, all with his annoying laughter pissing her off even more.
"You've truly lost it my dear brother. Father's anger has corrupted you!"

*Dreshkahi continued to laugh at his older sister. He grinned widely, as if he was confident he was doing right in his work.*
=Dreshkahi=
"Corrupted!? I'd say his spirit has made me a better man. His anger has improved me, and he helps me complete my goals!"
=Crystaall=
"You arrogant fool. Let his spirit go. He will not help you anymore. Not when your fate is intertwined with death."
*Dreshkahi engaged Crystaall in a saberlock, which she happily obliged. Both blades sparked up and they pushed back and forth. Crystaall jumped back and stood still, like a man frozen into shock. Dreshkahi took the oportunity and amplified enough of the Force into his palm to push her away, which succeeded with ease as Lauara took her place, igniting one of her yellow blades on her saber staff. She struck with an amazing combination of hatred and power. She wanted him dead, and he knew it. Dresh coughed as she began to strike recklessly. He dodged each blow with the direct intention to study his opponents own recklessness. It took only moments for him to calculate and execute his counter-attack. He took his opening with lightning reflexes and grasped Lauara by the throat. He pulled hard enough to force her lightsaber to fall into the water below. She scratched at his hands, his arms and tryed to take his hands off her neck. Nothing worked and Lauara had no time to do anything desperate, but she heard the faint sounds of her mother running toward her. During this moment, Dresh dropped her and she felt something pierce her in the heart, and everything went black. Crystaall awoke to seeing her daughter striking at her uncle with a killing intent. She slowly got up, grabbing her lightsaber and looked back to see her brother choking Lauara. Crystaall reacted on instinct, and began running with the force flowing around her giving minor assisstance. She was inches away and lunged her blade forward, lost in the moment to stop Dreshkahi. But what she struck was not who she expected. Her blade went through Lauara's back and straight through her heart, and an inch from Dreshkahi's face. Crystaall imidiately dropped her weapon on the ground, and slowly rolled near Dresh's feet. Crystaall held Lauara and held her head next to her own and cried into her daughter's hair and did this for a while until Lauara's left hand reached for her mother's chest. Lauara looked at her mother and laughed.*
=Lauara=
"There are people worse than him. But only those who have the determination and will to fight, can stop them."
*Lauara's hand fell and Crystaall caught and watched closely as the body began to disappear. She stood up and gasped. She knew her mother was a spirit for a short time, but never did she imagine her daughter to join the force. Dreshkahi kicked Crystaall's weapon into the water and sighed.*
=Dreshkahi=
"Dear sister, you will join her soon."
*Crystaall looked down at the floor and then slowly lifted her head, staring into the eyes of her brother. A familiar feeling began to punch her heart. Beat after beat, the feeling got stronger. The urge for revenge. To avenge those friends she lost in the temple, the buddies in her bounty hunting days, her mother and everyone who gave their life to help her. She succumbed to the anger and hatred, letting it flow within her. Crystaall's hair began to turn white, and her crystal blue eyes turned into a burning red. Dreshkahi stepped back in horror.*
=Dreshkahi=
"No...no.... you shouldn't be doing that. You took the AI out of your head. You can't be doing this. Its impossible!"
=Crystaall=
"The fires have been reignited. Have fun in the afterlife my little brother!"

*Crystaall struck with lightning speed, succumbing to her anger and urge for revenge. She could no longer resist the darkness that rose in heart. Her blade ignited mid-swing, taking Dreshkahi, his horror still keeping him in shock. There was no possible explanation for this unspeakable peak of power that has erupted from his sister's soul. He went to scream, but nothing came out as he saw his own body fall to the ground and his vision blur the moment his head landed in the water. He closed his eyes and waited for it to end. Crystaall breathed heavily as she dropped to her knees and began to cry on the boots of her brother's corpse. She wiped the tears from her eyes, and slowly stood up. She pulled out a lighter and flicked it a few times to spark it up and dropped it upon the black robes. She turned around, seeing John stand there holding helmet in one hand and pistol in the other. His short black hair and beard made another tear fall from Crystaall's face as the body of Dreshkahi caught fire and began to burn. She casually walked over to him and hugged him tight. More tears came from her eyes as she put her head on his shoulder, watching her tears drip down from her chin onto the bridge they stood upon. John slowly put his arms around her, droppig his helmet and putting his right hand on the back of her head, stroking her hair.*
=Crystaall=
"Why am I cursed to carry so many burdens? I never wanted this. Everyone I keep close to me dies before my eyes, and all I can do is stand and watch them fall as anger and hatred consumes me, taking over control, destroying my enemies. And now I not only possess a dangerous weapon, I hold the spirit of my father inside me. Am I supposed to be a ruthless killer?"
=John=
"If you were a ruthless killer, you'd be an agent of the Empire, more dangerous than your brother. You'd have never brouht Lauara into the light. The squad, and me specifically would never had saved you from your arm dilema and make good friends along the way. You'd never be the hero you were destined to be."
=Crystaall=
"But why have the burdens piled up?"
=John=
"Some are to show you your recklessness and survival instincts, and others are to make you stronger within yourself. Realize that you have always stopped any evil placed in front of you. Your path will not be easy. And I will follow you to its end."
*A day after Operation: Promise, Crystaall stood at her mother's grave in Naboo's capital of Theed. She stood there in a black dress with roses in her hand. John stood behind her, still in his yellow striped, clone captain armor.*
"I have broken my promise to you mother. My promise to stop the darkness within our family. And I now promise to never lose control of my emotions. I can never lose anymore. Come Hell or Heaven I will fight by the Jensaarai and keep the peace, for you and for myself. Give Lauara my regrets."
*Crystaall threw the flowers next to the headstone and felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked to see John smiling and she nodded smiling back at him.*
=Crystaall=
"Operation: Broken Promise is a go. And it will end when we have given our last breath fighting the Sith and evil that this galaxy hides within its darkest shadows."
