Capítulo 66: Vengeance
"I don't know who it is Brain, nor why not kill them. But I can guess why he is attacking us. He is a mon calamari, as was the enemy commander in the Battle of Kamino."
Dageer knew it had to be a mon calamari, and one who partook into the Battle of Kamino. In two months of war, a lot of living beings died, be it on Geonosis, Kamino, Rhen Var, Alaris Prime, or any other battlefield in the galaxy. But the timing was too close to be any other than a mon calamari.
"Brain, after the ship is clean, I want everyone inside the medical base. Including sentries. He already proved that he can sneak inside easily, a few more guards won't make a difference."
"Yes sir."
Not long after Brain left, Tech came over to Dageer.
"Sir, the corvette is clean. No bombs, almost all functions are good, only the communicators were broken, and there is no one left inside it."
"Only the communicators? He didn't even break the flight systems?"
"No sir."
"Are the communicators repairable?"
"Not in a short amount of time, sir."
"Then get the crew back here, and send them back to Kamino to ask for reinforcements. We have an unknown number of enemies, but they already killed or captured two dozens of clones."
"Sir, are you sure that is alright? Why would they leave the ship intact, knowing that we can ask for support?"
"Think with me Tech. They cut our communications, so the only way we can ask for backup is by this ship. They broke the communicators, which means that only when the corvette land on Kamino that they will be able to know our situation."
"And that will take a few days and a few more for them to arrive back here. Is this a trap sir?"
"Not for us. Our opponent must think that this spam of time is enough for him to kill all of us here on Scarif, and flee. Either that or he wants our reinforcements to arrive, and that would mean that the enemy force is much bigger than we thought."
"That doesn't make sense. If they were strong enough, why bother jamming communications? They could just have let the medical base tell the whole story and then a big group of Republic ships would be sent."
"I agree. I think they want to kill us all and flee before our reinforcements arrive. The reason that they let the corvette intact is that more clones can arrive here and see what they did."
"I am sorry sir, but I am still confused. That too doesn't make sense."
"If you are thinking from a strategic perspective, it doesn't. But this isn't a military operation. He said clones killed his father. This is vengeance."
-----------------------
Deep into the sea of Scarif, where there was so little light that only the weirdest creatures could survive.
A starship as big as a Gonzati-class cruiser laid on the muddy bottom of the ocean. Inside it was a crew of mon calamari, and on the command center was a mon calamari bigger than any other.
The mon calamari was alone on the command bridge, talking to a hologram of a hooded figure. At this moment the mon calamari seemed to be angry, and the calm voice of the hooded figure only made him angrier.
"... it is exactly like yoooou heard Coooount Dooooku! Yoooour pile of metal that yooou calls an army retreated as soooon as they saw that my father died!"
"Young Hiigi, the last order from your father was for them to retreat. He should have retreated too. The death of your father was his own fault."
"He died because of yooou! He believed ooon the Separatist! I tooold him that yooour plan was booound to fail, but he trusted yooou, and nooow he is dead!"
"Hiigi, be careful. What you are saying could be interpreted as treason against the Separatist cause."
"Nooo Dooooku. I still believe in ooour cause. The ooone I dooon't believe is yooou. You ask me tooo return, and dooo what? Stay hidden? Dooo a suicide mission fooor yooou, as my father did?! I can't even return to my hooome planet, ooor I will be charged as a traitor! Nooo, I will nooot return. I will avenge my father, and kill every clooone and jedi ooon this galaxy."
"And after you do that, what will you do, child?"
"I will kill yooou."
The mon calamari, Hiigi, crushed the hologram projector in his hands. Unfortunately, he was too absorbed in his rage to see the smile on Count Dooku's face.
