Datian Guus kept careful watch over the damaged section. He was wary of the exposed decks below him, and the gaping hole leading out into space, protected only by a force field. It was his task to sound the alarm if someone attempted to bring down the shields in that section, as it could expose other Jedi to the vacuum of space.
He heard a sound in the distance, and sensing danger, he ducked into one of the nearby collapsed rooms. There was a lot of wreckage inside, and he was able to mask his force signature and remain silent.
After several heart-pounding minutes, he thought about looking up.... to see if someone had found him, but he remained perfectly silent. He concentrated and created an echo of himself a few decks away, hoping to distract whoever was searching for him.
A half-hour passed, and Datian made the echo disappear. He heard a loud roar of frustration, far away, and it was then that he decided to flee the scene altogether. He made it out alive.

Jenn Gon Rui was looking for someone. After shadowing their movements for a couple hours, they turned a corner and Jenn lost track.
Sensing danger, Jenn Gon Rui ignited her Gold Lightsaber.
"Who is there?" Jenn asked. Then, a cloaked figure came around the corner. Jenn stood in a classic Ataru stance, ready for anything. The cloaked figure said nothing.
Reacting instinctively, Jenn Gon Rui reached out with the force and gripped the cloaked figure and lifted the stranger up off of the ground, preventing escape.
Jenn Gon Rui: "I asked you a question. Who are you? Why are you following me?"
The figure struggled to escape, but it didn't work.
Jenn Gon Rui: "You're not going anywhere! You will answer, or I will call for reinforcements!"
The figure did not respond, but reached out with both hands, and began choking Jenn Gon Rui using the Force. This attack worked, as Jenn could not concentrate on keeping her opponent elevated and also prevent the attack. The hands tightened their grip, and Jenn's windpipe and lungs began to collapse. She struggled to breathe, but went down on her knees, trying to keep her opponent away. She couldn't continue the hold, and released the unidentified stranger, who landed softly on the deck plating, and continued to wound Jenn Gon Rui. The figure lifted her up, and sent her flying towards the blast doors on the far end of the corridor. Her body went completely through the solid duranium, but what remained was not all in one piece, or very recognizable. She was killed instantly.

Ushi Makoth was also near the damaged section of the ship, busy with repairs, when she heard a noise. She got up and began to investigate, her lightsaber at the ready. When she turned the corner, and saw the torn apart section, where three decks were exposed and the deck plating had been torn apart above where she was standing, she also noticed a cloaked figure on the far side of the corridor. She ignited her green lightsaber, and stood in a Makashi stance.
She assessed the situation and thought quickly what the most likely threats were. The figure did not have a lightsaber ignited, or visible, and was standing on the far side of the corridor. She quickly realized that there was going to be an attack from a distance, and she had just the remedy.
Without waiting for her opponent to move, she used the Force to leap high above the deck plating, performing a backward somersault in midair, and landing on the exposed deck three floors up. She sprinted down the corridor and used the Force to close the blast door behind her.
Her opponent wasn't quick enough to follow her, but she heard an awful noise, sounding almost like a scream, but this time it was more like a sonic boom. The deck plates underneath her feet shuddered from the vibration. She didn't look back. Somehow, she had survived the encounter.

Rian-ban Fo stood in the Engineering section, keeping watch over one of the Engine Reactors. His keen senses alerted him to the presence of a figure walking down the corridor, heading for his location.
Rian-ban ignited his lightsaber, and stood in a classic Soresu stance.
The cloaked figure entered the room, and saw Rian-ban with his saber ignited, and followed suit, also in a Soresu stance.
The two combatants stared at each other, wordlessly. They stepped forward, onto the metal scaffolding which was narrow and didn't provide much room for maneuvering except forward or backward. Their sabers met, and they clashed swords for several moments. The match was not even, as the figure holding the purple lightsaber easily deflected all of Rian-ban Fo's swings.
The cunning warrior with the purple blade used a mind trick to distract Rian-ban, and was able to get under his guard and deliver a glancing blow. But Rian was not quite human, and was able to continue fighting. Rian countered with a blast of blinding light, stunning the unknown attacker momentarily and causing the figure to be unable to see. Now was Rian-ban's chance, and he lunged.
The unknown attacker countered this move with a sudden Force Push, knocking Rian-ban to the deck and causing him to lose his grip on his lightsaber. The saber disengaged and clattered onto the deck plating far below. With Rian-ban's defenses gone, the unknown attacker delivered the finishing blow, and ended the young one's life. Deed done, the cloaked figure put away the purple lightsaber and exited the scene.

Ana Riya was guarding one of the security rooms, where the weapons were stored. It was not too long into Beta Shift before she was alerted to the sound of a turbolift stopping on her level. She quickly ignited her orange lightsaber and stood in a Makashi stance.
The cloaked figure stepped off of the turbolift, and began speaking.
Unknown: I thought I'd find you here, Ana. It is good to see that you're manning your post.
Ana Riya: Why are you here?
Unknown: There's no need to point that lightsaber at me, unless you intend to use it. Is that your intention?
Ana Riya: If you don't explain why you're here, I may be forced to.
Unknown: Yes, I see... those aggressive feelings you have, they make you powerful. Why do you hesitate? Why not use this moment where I am unarmed and attack me?
Ana Riya: There's no aggression here. Merely vigilance. What are you implying?
Unknown: What I'm implying is that you would be wise to either strike me down, or kneel before me, young Ana Riya. Learn to use the Dark Side of the Force, and become more than the pathetic shell that you are. Isn't that what you really want?
Ana Riya: *flatly* No. And if what you're saying is what you really want, then you are a Sith Lord.
Unknown: Am I? Not quite, Ana.... But perhaps you're not capable of being persuaded in this fashion. Maybe you'll show your true colors when you are at death's door....
The figure ignited a blue lightsaber.
Unknown: Defend yourself!
Ana Riya advanced on the unknown figure, lightsaber raised. Before their sabers could even meet, the cloaked figure unleashed a force wave which threw Ana across the corridor, causing her to drop her lightsaber. As she quickly rushed to grab it, her attacker charged forward and prepared to deliver the killing stroke. Before the figure was upon her, she used the force to leap over the attacker's head and rush toward the turbolift.
Without a moment's hesitation, the cloaked figure unleashed a torrent of electricity from his fingers, stopping Ana in her tracks. She turned to try to deflect the incoming lightning, but her Makashi training never dealt with this kind of attack. The lightsaber was blown out of her fingers, as she lay writhing on the ground, screaming in pain.
Unknown: It's all over, Riya.... it is useless to resist....
Ana Riya could do nothing but lay there screaming, trying to defend herself but there was nothing she could do. She pleaded with the unknown figure to stop, but the lightning continued. She experienced agony beyond her wildest imagination, and went unconscious.
When it was all over, the unknown figure checked the body. She was dead.
Disappointed, the cloaked figure exited the scene.

Sol Jade- Grandmaster of the Jedi Order
Sol Jade called a meeting of the Jedi Council in the morning, and played back the holographic recordings for all to see.
"Our efforts seem to have been in vain. I was almost sure we would have accomplished something useful last night, but I was mistaken. From the look of it, the same murderers are still at large, and we've failed to stop them. However, the good news is that two of us survived attempts on their life, so we must be thankful for these small blessings.
We must also remember the sacrifices made by those who have fallen in battle. Never forget the images you have seen here. Honor their memory by bringing me a Sith Lord today!"
The Jedi seemed discouraged by the losses. Sol Jade could do nothing to comfort them.
"Be of good cheer, fellow Jedi. We have new Masters and Knights ready to take the place of the fallen, ready to defend the Order. Dwell not on our failures, focus only on our future successes. That is the path Nomi would have you follow."
