Star Wars: A New Beginning/Chapter 13: Crisis on Coruscant

As soon as the Venator exited hyperspace at Aqualish, a Star Destroyer followed. On the bridge, Admiral Archer received a message from Admiral Dao.


 * "You need to return to Coruscant as soon as possible. It is under attack by a Jedi Rebellion allied with the Alsakan Militia. The Jedi across the galaxy who survived Order 66 and the ones on Coruscant at the time regrouped and attacked. We need reinforcements." said Dao.


 * "We're on are way." replied Archer.

The Venator and Star Destroyer entered hyperspace once again, and headed towards Coruscant. Alsakan Militia fighters engaged the incoming cruisers, as dropships headed towards the surface with AT-ATs. CC-1010, in one of the AT-ATs, contact CC-2009, who decided to join the space battle. Before he could, they landed, and were attacked by Jedi and Militiamen. The troopers on the ground were quickly slaughtered. Fox took over one of the gunnery positions on the walker, and shot several Jedi coming towards them. As the walkers made their way towards the Presidential Palace, the number of enemies was dwindling.

Meanwhile, in space, Typhuss and his fighter, Shadow Blade, engaged enemy ships. They were highly outnumbered. Many of the Confederate ships were already destroyed. Typhuss steered his fighter towards a Confederate atmospheric dreadnaught. The gunnery platform was under attack by enemy ships. Typhuss blasted them, and held them off for enough time for the crew to turn on the deflector shields. Typhuss then left towards the an enemy skyhook, which is where The commander of the Militia and several Jedi Masters were. He flew passed the fighters exiting the skyhook's hangar, and shot a pair of missiles at the main generator. It exploded, destroying the station and everyone in it. Seeing the explosion, the Alsakan fighters scrambled to the nearest transports, and retreat, leaving the Jedi starfighters to get picked off by Confederate Star Destroyers.

On the ground, Fox and the AT-AT walker battalion broken through the enemy line, as Alsakan soldiers retreated, leaving the Jedi to fight for themselves. CC-2224, Cody, exited his walker and charged at the Jedi, only to be sliced in half. Fox and the walkers blasted the rest of the remaining Jedi and retreated back to the the Jedi Temple, where the few remaining Jedi and Jedi-loyal Alsakan troops were gathering. Fox ordered the walkers to halt, as an air strike started, killing them all. The ground battle was over.

Typhuss was speeding to attack the Jedi strafighters up in space, but was suddenly ambushed and his fighter crashed on the ground on Coruscant. He exited the fighter as a military mechanic came to inspect it, followed by several troops.


 * "Sorry, the fighter isn't going anywhere. It is beyond repair." he said.

Then, Typhuss ran off to join Fox and the other commanders.
