I'm working on it as much as I can. Darth RL is giving me hell as of now.

EDIT: However...

Chapter Five: Mélee

Saul Karath swore as the Leviathan's bridge rocked. "What the hell was that?"

Morvis looked up from the tactical console. "Mandie missile barrage, Sir! Shields are down to 75---" The bridge rocked again. Morvis winced, "70 percent efficiency!"

Karath growled. "Dammit! Revan, your plan is getting us torn to shreds!"

The hooded Jedi, flanked by Malak, shrugged. "No, it's not. It's actually going to win us the fight."

The comms officer shouted, "Admiral Karath, Admiral Sommos on the holocomm!"

Karath pinched the bridge of his nose so hard he drew blood. "Great. Put her on."

Sommos's holo crackled to life. "Karath, where the hell are you?! We're being blown to smithereens!"

Karath gritted his teeth. "Admiral, we're trying to push through the Mandie lines, but they've cut us in half!"

"Well, do something, and do it fast, Saul! We're dead if you don't!"

Karath ignored the fleet admiral's use of his first name (it was not because she was an attractive woman, Karath assured himself, it was not). "Admiral, we're doing the best we can, we're---"

Revan, who had been standing off to the side, seemingly meditating, suddenly perked up. "Is my General there?" he inquired of Sommos.
"Yes, but---"

"Put her on."

The same woman who had appeared during the fight soon stepped on. "What is it Mast---Sir."

"General, in fifteen minutes, the time will have come. You know what to do."

The Jedi's eyes widened, and she paled. "Sir---"

"There is no alternative. Do it."

"Yes Sir."

As the holocomm faded out, Karath swivelled to face Revan. "Alright, General, what the hell is this plan you have?"

The ghost of what might have been a smile played over Revan's face. "You'll find out soon enough General. You'll find out."

***

On the bridge of the Kote, Mandalore the Ultimate gazed out at the Republic fleet, only half-hearing Cassus's report.

"We're cutting Sommo's fleet to pieces, Manda'lor. It won't be long until Karath's follow suit." said the warrior. "The battle's ours, Manda'lor."

"No. Karath's won't follow suit." Mandalore's mask swivelled to face Cassus. "Revan is there."

"What does that mean you'll do, Manda'lor?" Cassus's voice actually sounded worried.

Mandalore was actually touched by his longtime second's concern. "I'll link my HUD's camera feed and life signs over to your helmet. If I go down...you have command."

"Roger that, Mand'alor. Die proud."

***

On the bridge of the Leviathan, Carth Onasi yanked hard on the joystick that controlled the ship. Some might have said that flying a capital ship was nothing like flying a fighter, but Carth disagreed. It was simply a matter of knowing your limitations.

The Leviathan heeled about up and hard to starboard. "Cardlo!" Carth shouted at the gunnery officer. "Two Mandie pickets, starboard!"

The gunnery officer, a veteran of the batteries, grinned. "Roger that!"

Pulses of green light leapt from the Leviathan. Lieutenant Cede, the tactical officer, barked out, "Scratch one Mandie! Wait, scratch two!"

"Alright!" said Morvis from the tactical console. "Keep it up, people!"

"Onasi!" interrupted Karath, "bring us about hard to port!"

"Admiral?"

"You see that cruiser, Carth? That's where Mandalore lives. What say we remind him of that?"

"Sir! Yes Sir!"

***

In the troop bay of the assault shuttle assigned to Kex's squad, a small clanking could be heard. "Someone's knocking on the hatch," remarked Sherruk.

"Way to go, mir'osik. Xarga, pop the hatch," replied Kex.

The soft spoken warrior clicked an acknowledgement over the helmet comm, and did so.

Kex saw who it was, and barked, "KE-SHUSH!"

Mandalore waved him down. "Forget it, warrior. We're in a battle now, I don't need that garrison osik."

"Aye, Mand'alor. Do we have an objective?"

"Yes. Karath's cruiser seems to be making a charge on the Kote. What say we remind Revan and Karath we know where they live?"

"Sounds good to me, Mand'alor."

"That's what I thought. Pilot, hit the engines. Oya!"

The cry of "OYA" nearly deafened Kex. It was finally time to take the fight to the enemy.

"Entered hyperspace?" interrupted Revan. "Yes. We know. Admiral Sommos is already arraying the fleet, Admiral. You should be receiving your orders around---"

The comms officer interrupted. "Admiral Karath, Admiral Sommos wants us to head up the vanguard of the fleet!"

"---Now," finished Revan, a small, self-satisfied smile on his bland face.

"Roger that, Mand'alor. Die proud."
