Fox (novel)/Chapter 12: Coreillian Resistance

The gunships landed and the clones pilled out, and got to their regular positions. CT-1138 and CC-2011 came up to the two clone commanders. Then, the clone troopers rushed back in the gunships.


 * "What's going on?" Fox asked CT-1138 and CC-2011.


 * "The siege we abandoned at Ryloth. We were ordered to go back." they said and ran.


 * "Aww, come on." said Fox, running back to the gunships.

They got in and the gunships went back towards Ryloth. As they were on their way to the capitol, the clones discussed a battle plan.


 * "CC-2009 and CC-5859 will attack from the back of the city, while me and CC-4477 will attack form the front, distracting them." said Fox.

The gunships split up, and headed their separate ways. Fox, Thire and their troops received heavy artillery fire. Several gunship went down, but there were survivors. All the sudden, the gunship shacked, and red lights came on.


 * "We're going down!!!" yelled the clone pilot.

The clones braced themselves for crash landing.

Meanwhile, Typhuss, Stone, and their troops weren't in danger. They landed quietly behind the city and saw artillery cannons on the wall pointing and shooting in the opposite directions. The troopers ran towards the wall.


 * "We have to wait till Fox gives us the signal" said Stone.

The troopers waited, and then it came. The clones shot cables up to the top of the wall, and climbed up. The Coreillian Resistance members saw them, and alerted the others. The clone troopers were surrounded on the wall by countless armed Coreillians.

Fox and Thire and the clones continued fighting. Where are they? thought Fox. They should of taken out the front deflectors by now. They continued fighting and they fell one by one. Soon only Fox and Thire were left.

Typhuss and Stone finally broke through the enemy lines on the wall, with barely any troops left. They climbed up the towers and took out the forward deflectors. Fox and Thire's gunships then fired on the artillery and troops on the wall, and killed them all.

Hours later, Typhuss was guarding the gunships as they were getting prepared for the trip to Coruscant. Thire came up to Typhuss.


 * "I think there is something you need to see." he said.

The two clones came up to the list of the MIA (Missing In Action) and the dead. Typhuss scanned the list on Thire's request, and Typhuss's wife, Leeta Heron, was on the list of the dead.


 * "I'm sorry." said Thire, from behind Typhuss.

The two clones left to the gunships, where everyone else was waiting to leave. The gunships took off towards Coruscant.
