Chapter 4:Escape
She woke up in a cell, chained to the wall. She tried to free herself, but could not find the strength to do so. She wondered what happened to the others. Have they completed the mission, or have they failed. Would she ever see any of them again, or would she be forced to serve the Empire until the day she died? Those two questions were the only things on her mind. Then, she heard footsteps outside of her cell. She listened carefully. "... shall be pleased" said a voice. Her cell door opened, and a figure entered. She realized it was the inquisitor that she fought yesterday. "So, you are awake, Jedi" said the inquisitor. She remained silent. "I am aware that you killed one of my colleagues. We found him spread out on the ground, a lightsaber wound through his torso. He was one of our best. You must be skilled to have survived against him. But no matter. My master will break you soon enough" the inquisitor said. Lurana reached out to the Force, and searched for anything she could use as a weapon. She felt the power close, but could not use it. She realized her foe was blocking her access. "None of that now. Your weapon is tucked safely away, out of your reach. And now, my masters are generous. If you join us, you could be a great asset to our efforts." "No. I shall find a way out of here, and complete my mission" Lurana replied, reaching out to the power again. The inquisitor pulled out a blaster and stunned her. Lurana slumped back against the wall, and her foe exited the cell, closing the door shut. What she didn't know, however, was that Lurana only feinted, but managed to create a shield around her just as the stun bolt hit her. She opened her eyes and reached out with the Force, unlocking the restraints. She stood up, feeling somewhat wobbly. She breathed in, and braced herself against a wall, and, once she felt better, opened the cell door with a wave of her hand and rushed out, moving silently. She then sensed several familiar life forms. She rushed to the cells and opened them. Three of the Rebel soldiers with her had been captured as well. "General" they said, and saluted. "Come on. We'd better go" she said, and they rushed out of the prison. They stopped as an inquisitor appeared before them. "It appears I have underestimated you, Jedi" the inquisitor said, inclining her head, and attacked, her lightsaber drawn. Lurana grabbed her hilt, and kicked her in the shin, as her foe pushed her into a wall, pushing her lightsaber toward her. Lurana ducked and the inquisitor slammed into the wall, stunned. She spotted her lightsaber hanging off her belt and called it back to her hand, closing her fingers over the familiar hilt, relieved. She and the Rebel soldiers rushed to the base, managing to evade the stormtroopers and the remaining inquisitors. She took out her com link and contacted Lieutenant Vanrees. "Lieutenant, we are on the way to the rendezvous. I an three others" she said. "What happened?" he asked. "We encountered two Imperial inquisitors and a few stormtroopers. Three of the soldiers were killed, I and one of the survivors were injured, but we are fine otherwise. We are on our way to objective location" said Lurana. "Alright. Master Judeor and his squad is here. Your master is not far" the lieutenant replied, and the call cut off. They hurried to the rendezvous point.
