Star Wars The Clone Wars:Revan's legacy

XXIII: In the path of Revan

The drive down into Manaans waters was more beautiful than the two Jedi and clone could've imagined. Marvelous schools of fish and massive creatures roamed the ocean world as Fog drove them further down towards the sea floor they all held their breath the underwater temple was covered in CIS markings and metal the structure barely intact. As fog docked them into the temple Bastille stepped out looking down at the veteran pilot,"Just wait here if something goes wrong leave quickly find Bishop and try to contact the Republic " Fog nodded knowing this was out of his control. As the Bastille and carmine made their way towards the temple doors it automatically opened for them. In front of them a stone room with a raised monument in the center emitting blue light in front of it stud a figure in dark robes his back towards them an all to famillar voice rang through Bastilles ears,"Beautiful isn't it The infinite empire waisted their time conquering world's when their art was so much better... But that's another subject entirely for another time. " The figure faced them Vex donning a new set of armour now his arms behind his back. Bastille stud infront of Carmine staring down Vex her hand inching closer towards her lightsaber," Enough Vex you're times up whatever you want with these ruins stop I'm bringing you in" Bastille stated giving Vex a warning. The sight laughed and grabbed his two lightsabers ," Unfortunately you're not bringing me anywhere and you won't be leaving this place either" the two stared each other down waiting to see who would make the first move. Vex didn't have all day quickly activating his red saver throwing it at Bastille while igniting the second and charging towards her. Bastille with lighting like reflexes pulled up her lightsaber blocking the incoming saber throw and dodging Vexs second blow. Carmine quickly stepped back nervously pulling out his own saber. Bastille retaliated swiftly her hand extending to force push the Sith away. Vex stumbled back giving Bastille enough of an opening to land a blow against his heavy armour. As her saber practically slid off his armour Vex kicked Bastille away giving him time to recenter himself,"He he he you've gotten better... But not better enough" Vex mocked as he forced his second saber back into his hand deflecting a strike Bastille swung towards his neck. Ducking down he the counter attacked aiming for her leg. Bastille extended her double blade blocking his strike ,"I've learned enough" Bastille stated. The two continued to match each other's blows neither of them getting the upper hand until Vex tired of the fight as Bastille stoked against Vexs new armour he snarled each strike caused a significant amount of pain enough to send him into shock had he not enhanced himself,"You can't win Bastille you'll tire out eventually even after myself I'll cut you down then you're Padawan" Bastilles eyes widened and she grinded her teeth closing her eyes she turned off her lightsaber taking a step back Vex simply laughed as he went for the killing blow Bastille opened her eyes slightly tilting toward the side causing Vexs attack the swing wide her sabers emitter pressed up against his chest plate activating and piercing through his chest she quickly turned the saber off again Vex falling to his knees his own sabers turning off," No no..." He gasped his hand quickly dropped his weapons and went to hold the hole now in his chest,"You....I ....you can't win......not like this..." He fell to the ground a pound thump echoed through the temple. Bastille sighed and looked over at Carmine who stud there his saber shorting into its hilt,"I didn't want to get in the way" he stuttered out Bastille simply nodded. The two walked over towards the projector that emitted a blue galaxy map," Why'd Vex die over this?" He asked looking over this master"I don't know Carmine I'm sure the Jedi masters will have an answer her hand reached into her robes pulling out a data map which she recorded the map . The two set off quickly leaving Vex behind. The travel back to the surface was quite Fog didn't mention anything knowing the two needed some time to breath . As they reached the surface it seemed the droid army had been overwhelmed by the citizens Bishop helped Bastille out of the submergible." Mark another one off for the Republic" Bastille smiled brightly"Not just the Republic captain but for the people of Manaan they now can live freely with Vex defeated and it seems the droid army on the run I think the war is finally coming around.

The citizens of Manaan were happy to help with the republics repairs sending them off as heros. Crasher sighed in relief as they flew off the planet,"Phew im glad off that planet... I swear I'm not going on another water world ever again" Fog rolled his eyes"what so you mean you didn't even step foot off the ship" Crasher pointed towards Fog"Doesn't matter the ship was touching the dock which was touching the ocean which is closer than I'd like" Bastille rolled her eyes at both of them." Let's just get the 225th back in one group we still have a war to win boys"
