Star Wars: A New Beginning/Chapter 4: A Rival Returns

The base's garrison was resting after the heated battle with the bounty hunters led by Cad Bane. But soon, another problem occurred. Typhuss, CC-2009, was standing in the tower-like control room, when an operator came up to him.


 * "We have an approaching fleet in Sector 5." said the operator.


 * "It's probably a fellow Confederation fleet." replied Typhuss.


 * "We tried contacting them, but they wouldn't respond to any of our attempts to make contact." continued the operator.

Typhuss walked over to the com, and the operator followed. Typhuss called the unidentified vessels again.


 * "Unidentified vessels, do you copy? Identify yourselves, or we will open fire." ordered Typhuss.

The ships continued their current course without a reply. A few hours later, they passed and the problem was over. Suddenly, WHAM! The front part of the base was blown to bits as a laser blast hit it. Typhuss ran over to the radar screen.


 * "What was that?" he yelled over the firing lasers.


 * "It seems are friends have returned." answered the operator.

Several dropships came down, and black armored skeletal creatures came out, and entered the control room.


 * "We have come back to take revenge on the Galaxy!" said the leader.

Then, Typhuss remembered. They were the Yuuzhan Vong, an alien race from another galaxy that previously tried to invade this Galaxy, but failed. The troops opened fire and a gunfight began as Typhuss contacted Leeta, Fox, and Theeda in the hanger via hologram.


 * "We are under attack! Lock down the command room and get all troops ready for battl- [static]" Typhuss had time to say.

The three set off an alarm, and Theeda tried to contact Coruscant.


 * "This is Lieutenant Marson of Confederate Intelligence on Ryloth. We are under attack by the Yuuzhan Vong and require immediate assistance!" she said.

The message got through to the the Confederation of Free Planets Special Operations Command. They sent out several ships to retrieve the garrison.

Meanwhile, Typhuss managed to get down to the rest of the garrison, who were holding out in the hangar bay. Several gunships came down, and the garrison got in, and several black armored troopers got out.
