Always ( An Anakin Skywalker & O.C Fanfic)

Shadow of Hoth

With their backs to the wall and not much time on their hands. Vidarr and Kome struggled to come up with a plan. One that could perhaps get them out of this alive. Though the first thing they would need to do was see exactly how many drones they were dealing with. Then find an opportunity to strike, but it would all come down to Vidarr. And his ability to adapt to the situation. His shoulder still burning with the constant sting of the blaster bolt. The wound now gaping, once outlined in crimson yet now was the hue of burned flesh. Though even injured Vidarr would not back down. He had a duty to his fellow Brothers and Sisters; and swore that he would not fall here. With the constant sound of blaster fire in the air; Vidarr centered himself. His left hand upon Kome's shoulder, while he concentrated. Felt the familar presence that was the force flow through him. Pulsing through his very veins to such an extent that Vidarr could hear his very blood pumping loudly in his ears.

Eyes remained closed Vidarr reached out through the force, it's vibrant amber glow flooding around him. Retreating from his touch and collecting before Vidarr and Kome. Twisting before taking the shape of both Kome and Vidarr. An after image some would say. A simple illusion. But they would be wrong. For Vidarr's illusions were so much more than that. While Kome watched the act a small smile of confidence forming on her lips. Impressed by Vidarr's quick thinking and ability to create two duplicates. Opening his eyes Vidarr turned his attention to the only exit. Where a single perpetrator stood bearing dark purple and gold armor. Heavily worn, and similar to that of the Mandalorians which only made Kome's heart quicken. "Bounty Hunter." Kome thought to herself before observing the exit as well. Already well aware of what Vidarr had planned. Bidding the illusions to rise, the copies of Kome and Vidarr stood. Dashing in the opposite direction of one another. Immediately drawing the blaster fire of their enemy. And giving Kome her only chance. Run.

Slinging her tote over her shoulder, Kome ran. The purple armored enemy away from Kome as she barged through the door. Her gaze lingering upon Vidarr who soon arose from his hiding place. His expression calm as the young man now with his yellow hued pike lightsaber. Now effortlessly diverting the oncoming blaster bolts thanks to Vidarr's skill with his pike. The slim weapon twirling about in his grip. A act of skill on Vidarr's part as the young man then ran towards his attacker. The Mandalorian armored Bounty Hunter now turning his attention to Vidarr. Now shooting a relentless amount of blaster bolts at Vidarr. Who now dove to the ground, his body low before bounding out of the oncoming fire. Still twirling the pike in order to maintain his ground. Though that did not stop stray blaster bolts to graze Vidarr. Burning his flesh greatly, but he did not stop. Pushing past the blatant pain thrust upon him, Vidarr released a vicious battle cry from his lips.

Charging towards the Bounty Hunter, thrusting his pike upward. Forcing the Bounty Hunter to surrender his weapon, but that did not stop him. Without wasting anytime the Bounty Hunter clamped his hands upon the Vidarr's weapon. And with all his might the Bounty Hunter slung Vidarr over his shoulder before slamming Vidarr into the ground below. The immense amount of pain coursing through Vidarr. His left hand still clutching onto his pike,refusing give up. Even as the Bounty Hunter kicked Vidarr repeatedly in the stomach causing him to double over. Struggling to catch his breath, but the Bounty Hunter was not satisfied. Seeing this and unable to leave her fellow apprentice or brother behind. Kome sucked at her teeth before turning to attack the Bounty Hunter. Kome's right hand upon a rather small hilted lightsaber tucked upon her person. One she had hoped to end the vile one who dared to harm her brother.

Quietly drawing near with the back of the Bounty Hunter to her. His attention upon Vidarr and his excruciating pain that the Hunter seemed to throughly enjoy. And it made Kome's stomach twist in disgust. This person was a monster. Drenched in the pitch blackness that served as the dark side of the force. Kome sensed it. Felt it through every fiber of her being. It was there a forboding darkness that even Kome was unsure was indeed true. But it did not come from attacker. No. Something else was there. Someone. Laying in wait, and Kome couldn't find them. Even with her many years of knowledge and experience on the battlefield. This person evaded Kome's very senses. It angered her to no end. Lit a fire within Kome that had been dormant for quite sometime. But they were there, emotions raw. And weakness bare for all. Gritting her teeth with the Bounty Hunter mere centimeters from her Kome drew her hidden lightsaber. It's low hum filling her ears as Kome slowly raised the blade overhead seeking to end the Bounty Hunter quickly. And silently.
