บท 73: Kalee
The screech was so loud that all of them, be it Dageer or the mon calamarians, stopped. Dageer turned and looked at the darkness behind him, only to see a pink tentacle shooting out of the darkness and winding around him.
The tentacle swung him, smashing into the walls a couple of times. The impact was so hard that Dageer actually spat blood, leaving a small and red mist on the water. The scent of blood seemed to stimulate the owner of the tentacles, and it came out of the darkness.
A giant monster. That was the only way Dageer could describe it. It was at least fifteen meters long, with a pink body. It was covered by a dark grey shell, and the only uncovered place was its face, from where the tentacles came. Five long tentacles, ending on suckers and starting at the sides of its beak.
The monster went closer and closer to the entrance of the cave, and the mon calamarians there seemed to be paralyzed. Even when the tentacles reached out to grab them, there was still no resistance from their part.
The monster kept dragging Dageer, and luckily for him, decided that it was one mon calamari, not him, that would be his dinner. The scene was... gruesome.
The monster, however, was not satisfied after just one mon calamari, and this time, Dageer was the unfortunate one.
As the tentacle pulled him closer and closer to the curved beak, Dageer had to think fast. When the monster opened its beak in anticipation, Dageer used another of the electric grenades, launching it directly inside the monster's mouth.
Blue arcs of electricity filled the monster mouth, and it let another horrifying screech before its tentacles twitched and let go of Dageer and the mon calamarians. Without worrying about the fact that they were enemies, clone and mon calamarians swam as fast as they could to get out of the cave.
Once they were out in the ocean again, Dageer was instantly surrounded by mon calamarians. There were at least ten of them, lead by the one who chased Dageer on the well. They entered a stalemate, both sides pointing their weapons at each other, but too worried with the monster to actually try and kill each other.
The mon calamari on the lead, the one with the tattoos, looked viciously at Dageer.
"Clooooone. Yoooour kind killed my father."
"We are at war, mon calamari. Your father was amongst the one who attacked my home planet. How would you feel if we attacked Mon Cala?"
"Mooooon Cala? Hah! I despise Mooon Cala. They tooook yoooour side, and betrayed my father and I. Listen clooone. The name of whooo will kill yooou is Hiigi, soooon of Merai."
So the mon calamari was the son of the enemy commander. Now it made sense why he had such hate for the clones.
"And I am Dageer, son of Kamino, a pleasure to meet you. Don't you think that we have more immediate problems? Such as this creature right there?"
Dageer pointed at the cave, from where the tentacles of the monster were already emerging.
"I can kill yooou first, scum!"
Hiigi spat those words, and was almost pulling the trigger. But Dageer was already expecting that, and sent his last electric grenade. The grenade exploded, once more paralyzing the mon calamarians, and knocking some of them unconscious. Dageer obviously would not wait for them, and swam as fast as he could to the tunnel. When he arrived there he looked over his shoulder, and saw the monster grabbing mon calamarians and stuffing them on its mouth.
----------------------
The clone threw another one of the electric grenades, catching Hiigi and the other mon calamarians out off guard. With a numb body, Hiigi could only look while the monster used its tentacles to capture his men and eat them.
Hiigi hated himself for not being able to move, he hated the clone who caused so many of his men to die, and he hated Count Dooku, who started it all. As the tentacles reached for him, the only thing he could do was watch and wait.
At that moment, when he was almost being captured, Tart, his father right hand, pushed him out of the way.
"TART!!!"
Until the moment that his body was crushed by the curved beak, Tart said nothing, but only looked at Hiigi, his eyes telling him to run.
-------------------‐--
Later, on the bottom of the ocean, Hiigi's ship.
Hiigi was once more on the control room, facing Count Dooku's hologram.
"Hiigi. I see your vengeance didn't go as well as expected."
Not caring about how Count Dooku knew this, Hiigi faced him silently.
"Child, you come to me for my help, even after you said you will kill me. Good. I will show you the path on which you can destroy all clones. Go to a planet called Kalee. Someone there will teach you how to exercise your vengeance."
Hiigi turned off the transmission, and not much later a ship left Scarif.
