Romeo Foxtrot, shall we dance? [D5, LA]

[Remmington Thalalas]

The comment doesn't pass Remmington. "Oh? You fought kill droids before?"

A short pause. "I think we are being watched by the way." He takes out his saber and the white core with red surrounding aura comes to life.

The nearest droid leaps into air and lands attacking Layne with its energized blade! The two engage in a vicious duel of blades but the Kill-Droid breaks through her defenses and strikes true and says in a cold metallic voice, “The Emperor had hopes for you, Layne. Your weakness will be revealed.”

[Layne Hoshin]

Layne managed to angle her lightsaber so that the incoming damage was slightly reduced, then with a quick jab of her free hand inserted a stimpack into her leg before proceeding to return the droid's greeting with some saberwork of her own.

"The emperor? Huh?"

[Jo'ren Rath]

Jo’ren moves into melee with the Droid assaulting Layne whirls his double bladed saber with cold fury the Kill Droid bringing the saber up to deflect some of the massive blow as the Kill-Droid states, “Jo’ren, the Emperor wonders if you are Sith… or just pretending.”

The feint works as Jo’ren buys Layne a moment of distrction with a powerful disarm but the Kill-Droid does not relinquish the weapon.

OOC: Miss but uses 3 to disarm, 1 to boost next PC, 2 to boost Rem, 1 to heal strain! Kill-Droid suffers two strain to avoid Disarm. It is now at 13 wounds.

The next droid says, “The Emperor watches you even now. He is the End of all things. Let us show you!”

The two engage in a duel of crimson blades slashing her and there along the causeway until the droid finds purchase!

The next leaps towards Remmington and says, “You think you go unnoticed fallen scion. Your house is not worthy of redemption, it shall burn.” The two clash energy blades the droid backhands Remmington and then spins slashing the Sith with a precise strike!

The final Droid pauses and says, “May the Emperor be pleased by this offering in his name!”

It leaps forward into combat versus Layne but over calculates the strike and lands in a disadvantageous position granting it’s enemies an opening.

[Layne Hoshin]

"The fuck!?" She just managed to exclaim her confusion when the knee went into her gut followed by a saber almost piercing into her shoulder. Instead she just barely managed to deflect it, though the heat still seared her flesh. Again, she stimpacked herself in a follow up, and her lightsaber tried to assault the droid. Unfortunately it was too fast for her, and the knee to the gut had made her slower.

Lightsaber/Brawn, Boost from Remmy, ignore setback, increased difficulty: 3eP+1eA+1eB+2eD+1eC 1 failure, 1 advantage

The second Kill-Droid continues the assault and says, “Your ignorance will not deny the End.”

Jo’ren parries multiples attacks before the Kill-Droid strikes his chin with a metallic elbow and then follows that with a powerful kick sending the large Sith sailing onto his back some distance away.

“Your weakness is insulting,” it says.

The next droid is unphased by Remmington and strikes with vicious stacks that ends with a combination of powerful slash followed by a kick to knock the Sith prone! The fourth droid seeing Remmington on the ground strikes at the prone Sith!

Remmington is able to defend himself even at such a bad position.

"Come on people, let's do this."

The droid is neatly bisected by Jo’ren and falls into two peoples. It ceases to function.

OOC: Droid #3 is done.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Woaw," Layne said as she almost went flying off the ledge entirely. Things were starting to look a bit dire here.

Fortunately, Layne was pretty strong, and easily managed to lift herself up from the edge and back into a standing position again. At which point she reached her hand out toward the darksaber she had been separated from, willing the force to return it to her.

[Dapper Dog]

The first droid says to Layne, “Your life will feed his power.” It leaps through the air and lands with a powerful strike which she avoids but it continues the assault resorting to all out reckless attack which is successful but leave it open for the Sith…

Sadly the blow to her face from the Kill-Droid’s metallic fist dazes her.

Droid #1 vs. Layne Crit: 1d100+10 32 - Stunned: Staggered until the end of her next turn. Cannot take Actions, can do Maneuvers.

[Layne Hoshin]

Layne saw Remmington fall just before she saw the metal face head for her face. Things were really not going well. The blow hurt like hell, and she was too dazed to focus on a counter-attack...

...so she didn't, instead ducking out the way of another blow and heading for Remmington. Fortunately she'd come equipped with a ton of stimpacks, one of which she pressed into Remmington's leg,

Meanwhile, she took a quick glance around the battlescene and closed her eyes. This was not a moment to think. This was a moment to let the force flow through her. Maybe she'd figure out a way out of this situation. Or maybe the force itself would respond to her plight and help her out somehow. Stranger things had happened.

((1 maneuver to get engaged with Remmington, 2 strain for another maneuver to stimpack him for 3 wounds. Spending Destiny to have something helpful occur!))

wounds: 14/17
strain: 7/17

[Dapper Dog]

Daz was never one to listen when he sensed trouble and he senses trouble. He had a training saber… well he stole the emitter but hey they should not have just left it sitting there, stupid Sith.

And maybe he didn’t stay where he should but there was something here… calling him.

Then he saw the fighting and it was… scary but super awesome and then Layne got stabbed again! So he charged in… it could not be that hard just do what Vera Hawke does… right?

Well the attacker he went for was way more nimble and he stumbles and falls backward hitting another droid and sending the second Droid sailing over the edge!

“Did you see that Layne!” Daz shouts.

OOC: Daz knocks Droid #2 over the side because he is insufferable.

Daz vs. Droid #1: 2eA+1eP+1eB+1eC+1eD+1eS 0 successes, 3 advantage

[Jo'ren Rath]

Dad's arrival was turning the tide. "Great job kid! Don't get cocky."

He looked at the killbot that was right in his face and unleashed a torrent of violence that would surely destroy it.

Was engaged with Rem and two killbots. Only one left so maneuver to aim, destiny upgrade, attack killbot #4.

The droid is destroyed by the savage assault but as it falls it swings it's lightsaber striking Jo'ren's and damaging it!

OOC: Jo'ren's weapon is now damaged and grants a setback to his rolls. Droid #4 is gone.

[Dapper Dog]

Remmington rolls to his saber but for the moment is just taking stock of the scene. The final remaining droid says, “You are not worthy of his presence. He is infinite.”

Then it charges Layne and tries to end her! The lightsaber strikes true once more! Daz shouts, "Hey metal-sleemo leave her alone!"

OOC: Deals 9 wounds Layne.

Droid #1 vs. Layne: 3eP+1eA+2eD+1eS 2 successes

[Layne Hoshin]

"Goddamnit Daz! I told you to stay on the ship!"

And then she got charged by a killbot. But Layne had recovered, and in one smooth fluid motion both sidestepped the assault and disabled it. It seemed like maybe it could be salvaged? Maybe?

"Well, since you're here!" She yelled at Daz, "Come make yourself useful with this scrapheap!"

Combat Ends

Cue the music.

There is a darkness building in your breasts and the doors to the central chamber open and there is blinding light and then a figure is visible in that sliver in light… and terror wells up in your breasts.

A single world rumbles through the chamber, "Kneel."

OOC: Fear check versus Daunting with 3 Challenge die, so 3 red and 1 difficulty dice. This is a Cool or Discipline check. A droid can be salvaged for later if you survive.
