229. Sith Saga: Proving Grounds - Trychon

Noises started to come through from the doors at the rear of their section.

Tyrrazapon knew what was happening and reacted. Projecting his voice once again, he spoke to the crowd around him, who were all obviously in a bit of shock... but were behaving fairly well considering. "Alright everyone! We all saw what sort of bad things can happen if we allow our guests to come in and try to do what they will... so we need to stop them. Here's what we're going to do..."

-----------------

Rawwk 11 looked at Rawwk 12 and signaled that he was about ready to go. They had spent the past minute trying to get the passengers in this section to be quiet... not that he could blame them.

They'd heard some very brief yelling and attempted comm chatter from Rawwks 17-20... before losing contact, which meant that the targets should be in the section right ahead of them, on the other side of the door that they were now perched, waiting.

-----------------

Trychon watched as the people got in place for Tyrrazapon's rather sadistic plan.

As they moved, one middle aged man got sucked out of the gaping hole on one side of the section.

"Please watch your step, everyone." Trychon commented.

-----------------

Group three of the Rawwks were poised and ready to go, with the knowledge that they should have groups one and two still making their way forward to help as well.

Rawwk 9 hit the button to open the sliding door between the sections. He got back into his crouch as the light turned from red to green and the door moved out of their way. All four were ready.

They were greeted by a wall of civilians. Rawwk 9 saw the others drop their weapons only slightly before adjusting. This wasn't exactly a new tactic, although having the parents in the back with children raised on their shoulders was an interesting twist.

-----------------

When the door opened, Trychon smiled at Tyrrazapon. If nothing else, this plan did suit his humor. The soldiers would undoubtedly push through the barrier they'd made, but they were at least restricted for a moment.

Then, they both made a mistake by turning to look at the source of the clanking noise on the floor in front of them.

The Flash grenade exploded, blinding both of the Sith and with just enough of a concussive element to make their ears ring as well. It was hard to concentrate, and next to impossible to discern what movement the force was telling them.

As the smoke cleared, the Rawwks did indeed begin to push through the crowd.

Raezyr opened the door from the control station to see the passengers, Trychon and Tyrrazapon attempting to regain their sense of what was happening, as well as the soldiers making headway.
