Avona: I knew it was time to stop being a pacifist. If traxen wanted a fight I'd give him one he will never forget.

(Morelia Avona POV 12 BBY).

Waking up was not pleasant for me emotionally and mentally.

I was furious no scratch that I was livid. After the fall of the Tetan empire empress Teta ordered a retreat to Sepratist space however several of her generals refused to obey and outright deserted to the rebellion while that wasn't bad I trusted Senators Organa and Amidala I was skeptical of mothma.

And the empire Had declared our actions of selling war material to the tetans to be an act of war and only a threat that I would personally come burn coruscant to the ground caused them to back off.

But I knew my threat wouldn't last long so I had a plan. After meeting with Teta I contacted my top military commanders and the shadow council to my palace to propose my plan.

Throwing on my uniform I made my way to my throne room something I didn't want but the people insisted since it was quite fitting to the grand countess who saved them.

Guards saluted me and I in turn smiled and returned the gesture as two men opened the large doors to the throne room.

As is entered the gathered officials kneeled and I knew immediately who was responsible from the giggling.

"Oh very funny Mila you put them up to this huh." I said while fooling my eyes and gesturing for them to stand.

"Sorry mom I had too." She said innocently from her hiding place behind Satele.

"Oh whatever." I replied with an eye roll as I sat down.

"What's the plan Countess." Revan asks.

"Ok so you all know how the Tetan empire was just taken by the empire right." I asked.

I got a bunch of nods in response.

"I had a thought. The empire according to our spy network is heavily Elitist and therefore the average civilian likely won't know about the truth of the Tetan war till way later.

And since my threat of quote. "Burning coruscant to the ground," probably ain't going to work forever I decided to do one better."

Meetra Surrik smirked having an idea of where I was going along with Bastila and Shak ti and Ahsoka.

"We will throw a massive military parade and showcase the new war anthem while also our navy and armies.

The show of strength may make it harder for the empire to recruit since such a strong force may cause the imperial citizenry to become fearful and serve as a reminder of how the republic forces them to face armies far weaker than that." I proposed.

"Splendid idea Mistress. And if I may the shadow armies will join in as well with the order as a whole.

And a little surprise for you." Revan adds.

"Oh I look forward to seeing that Revan." I replay as my officers leave and make preparations,

(5 days later 3rd person POV).

Everything was set up people were gathered across the galaxy and lined the streets of Raxus, Morelia, Desix, Ryloth and Kynar and many other worlds.

The troops were in position so were the droids.

From the palace balcony sat Avona, Carmiya and Mila.

Seeing everyone gathered and sensing the anticipation avona stepped forward and made her opening speech.

"People of the galaxy as you know our beloved confederacy was accused of essentially declaring war without a proper declaration.

I will say here and now that was a lie it is against the Naboo war accords but as stated in the treaty of coruscant we may trade with anyone we choose and empress Teta appealed to us for aid from a hostile invader.

And it the empire I have only one thing to say. If you want a war you will get it the confederacy is ready to step into the ring so what will it be Emperor Traxen.

Touch gloves or throw in the towel." Avona declared amidst thunderous applause as music began to play.

🎵

(Morelians and droids begin to March and sing).

The sky dots the droids March.
The soldiers stand
The leaders await the command
The war is coming.

From the plains of Morelia to the deserts of geonosis.
We stand side by side with honor and pride.

From the rim to the core to the regions.
Laugh or praise us it matters not.
Our duty is to protect not attack.

From the youngest Morelian to the Veteran Droids.
We say.

FIGHT, WE FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE AND WE FIGHT FOR COUNTESS AVONA.

(Shadow order).

The shadows rise
Above the flame
The force calls
War looms.

We the order of defense and honor
They who fight for what's right and true
Even amidst the storms.

From the shots fired on Morelia
To the charging fleets of Rendili
We the order of shadow and light

Say that no matter the resistance no matter the empires.

WE SAY

WE SAY

FIGHT

FIGHT FOR THE GRAND COUNTESS AND FOR THE CONFEDERACY.

(Morelia Avona solo).

My heart it grieves
I once believed in peace
But now I see that cannot be

A war will come and I will not cower
No I will not fear.

(Jumps into the streets caught by the knights).

Together side by side shadow and light
I will fight and no matter the odds
No matter the army
Hand to hand
Blade to blade
Blaster to blaster

I will FIGHT FOR MY PEOPLE YOU MAY CHEER OR CURSE ME.

BUT I WILL NOT SURRENDER UNTIL PEACE IS FOREVER

(Avona draws her sword raises it while being lifted up by the people amidst her soldiers thunderous cheering).

As she lowers to the ground a massive fleet of hundreds of Frigates and venators with dozens of finalizers and carriers emerges lead by a massive war ship.

"Behold the warship of our master the matriarch Our leaders great power  manifested." Revan declares as the crowd roars with cheers and Avona continues to raise her blade.
