The Invasion of Rendili

Narrator: Rendili a world renowned for its spaceship building technology is now under threat. Avona having gained a new ally set her sights on the vital Rendili star drive.

(The calamity Rendili moon).

The calamity floated just ahead of its fleet the pride of the Raxon Drive yards.

Avona had more than one reason though for being her at Rendili than just military conquest.

(Flash back Young Avona).

Young Avona happily skipped the halls looking at all the massive ships.

"I see you like the ships Miss Gozanni." An older man asked bending down to her eye level.

"Yes they're so cool I hope one day I can fly one of my own." Avona responded eagerly.

"I'm sure you will miss Gozzani." The man says ruffling her hair.

Avona's father had taken her for a tour of the Rendili star drive yards. However her father got tied in a meeting so the grandfather of the local minister had to watch her.

After 2 hours of running the halls her father finally summoned her.

Being led to a large ornate office by a guard little avona was picked up by her father.

"And so minister Rin I will begin to send that donation program in two days to help woth the lack of employment due to the recent shortage of star ship jobs."

"Thank you minister Zoram Gozanni your help is most appreciated your ship is ready for departure." Rin says with a smile on her face looking at little Avona who just waved ahpoily.

(Flash back end).

"We are now approaching Rendili." A B1 reports brining Avona out of her thoughts.

"Very good prepare the fleet attack formation." Avona commanded.

'Soon the people will be free and the republic will learn what happens when you oppress the population into doing what you want.' Avona thought as her ships began to engage the Rendili home defense fleet.

(Surface political chambers 1 hour later).

Word of the impending separatist fleet approaching had spread like wildfire.

All over the world citizens rioted many cheering at the prospect of separatist liberation from the republic.

"Sir the enemy is breaking through defense line two of the home defense fleet and the capital is in an uproar." A colonel informed the lord General with a bow.

"Prepare all ground defense cannons we must be prepared to repel them Or else everything we've gained will come crumbling around us." The lord general commanded fear evident in his voice.

His thoughts soon wandered to the recent history of his planet as he watched the streets erupt in flames.

'In the year 22 BBY just 4 months after Geonosis. A revolutionary government seized control of the planet and swore allegiance to the confederacy.

Before this the great planet Rendili renowned for its legendary ship yards had been overshadowed by Kuat and this caused great resentment among the planet's population.

But they tried to cooperate with Kuat but constantly the republic would ignore Rendili for the next best thing it seemed.

More salt was rubbed in the wound when the republic Choose to make Kuat its primary supplier of ships for the ongoing conflict.

With public support for the republic at an all time low the revolutionary army seized control and proclaimed their intentions to join the confederacy.

However a Jedi led task force under orders to prevent the Rendili drive yards from falling into separatist hands managed to win over the defense fleet.

A short war was fought where the revolutionaries were imprisoned and executed.

Now under republic jurisdiction the military enforced a near dictatorship over Rendili to stamp out support.

However now the confederacy was here in force and people were rallying to them.

And now everything the republic wanted to protect was at risk and the power the military had was now in question.'

(Separatist fleet 3 hours later).

The battle was not in the republics favor. They may outnumber the separatist forces having 45 ships instead of the enemy's 28 but most of the Rendili defense fleet was made up of hammerhead corvettes.

To make matters worse there was only 5 venators with this fleet a formidable number true enough.

But with the Omega, The Devastator and The Calamity all of them had improved shields and weapons and so the lines were pretty even.

"We are routing the last of the hammerhead corvettes and the venators are heavily damaged mam." TX-1943 reported.

"Good. Prepare all landing craft to make preparations for the ground invasion at once and send the Hyena bombers to hit all targets on the ground that could hinder the invasion." Avona commanded firmly.

"Yes mam."

(Surface).

Air raid sirens were blaring all over the major cities and towns causing citizens to panic and scramble for bunkers as the military struggled to bring down the screaming bombers.

"I'm afraid sir that the bombers are hitting our barracks and are targeting the AA batteries my guess is they are parting for a ground invasion." Marine Commander Velocity reported grimly.

"You must deploy your division at once and you are to repel the incoming ground invasion." The lord general ordered harshly impatient with the failures.

"Yes sir." Velocity reported with a bow.

All over the planet cheering was heard as separatist landing craft began approaching the cities under heavy fire.

"UP TO THE FRONT." A clone lieutenant yelled as he and his company raged forward to meet the approaching droids and Morelians.

"Wipe them out." Alson ordered her division as she began to fire on the advancing marines.

Clone marines were formidable but Morelian elite soldiers were a gray counter along with commando droids.

All over the planet droid and Morelian di ions landed being led by one of the Beskar knights while general Andor was bringing up the rest with a larger force to wipe out any stragglers.

(Rendili Palace 1 day later).

"The enemy has seized the cities of Arxa and Ovara. Further more the main ship assembly complex has been taken but we do now know who's leading this attack."

"Who." The lord general asks hoping for good news.

"General Avona the demon of the republic." The Admiral replies grimly.

The room fell silent at that name. Avona was considered a legend among the core worlds as the separatist best tactical General and her ability to win victories even if she's beaten.

"It's fine move the 3rd battalion to reinforce the fortress city of Stover and fortify the capitals...-." He was cut off by explosions erupting all over the whole of the capital.

"WHAT IS GOING ON." The lord General Demanded.

"Sir black Gunships are headed our way and droid landing ships are approaching the capital outskirts."

"No Impossible. Mobilize the remaining marines at once we we'll stop them." Velocity says running out of the room dawning on his helmet.

(Courtyard Rendili Palace).

Clones rushed to makeshift Barricades as they watched tensely as Black Gunships landed in the courtyard.

Almost immediately they were attacked By Morelian elite Troopers Charging Their Meager defenses. Soon the courtyard was filled with the dead bodies of Clones and Morelians.

Similar scenes were all over the planet as the conflict raged on. However the republic was losing. Their fleet had been routed or destroyed IN comparison Avona had been informed she was receiving fresh reinforcements that would be on the way in 2 rotations.

"COME ON MEN TEAR THEM APART." Velocity yelled as he charged a squad of Droids killing them with his bare hands.

However his rampage was soon halted by an elite trooper who tackled him After wrestling on the ground struggling to grab his knife he was eventually stunned By Avona.

"Cuff Him." She commanded.

Nodding the elite soldier immediately called for one of his companions as they dragged velocity off the battlefield.

Looking at the chaos around her Avona was impressed a she watched her soldiers press onward.

"Ah I'm so itchy." Selene whined scratching her wrist.

Avona smirked knowing why.

"How about we fix that." She replied gesturing with her pistol to the Marines.

Smirking Selene ignited her lightsaber while Carmiya grabbed her staff and rifle duel wielding.

The clones were soon horrified to see a female confederacy officer tearing through them like they were nothing. Avona simply danced over the Battle Sweeping the clones feet out from under them and blasting them.

Selene and Carmiya worked in synch blasting anyone who got too close while Selene used the force to hold them at bay while occasionally going in for a quick attack. 

Eventually the last of the Marines were eliminated.

"Courtyard secured General." Her commander informed her.

"Very good form up and sweep the pace take whoever you can prisoner but kill any who resist." Avona commanded.

Blowing up the entrance the Troopers charged into the building. Many officials surrendered while the few guards tried to resist only to be cut or shot down.

Eventually Avona Approached the main throne room.

"Selene lets make this entrance dramatic." Avona says her tone becoming darker while gesturing to the door.

Smiling Selene throws the door open with the force shocking the lord General and his advisors. Who stare in horror as Avona guns down the few soldiers in the room before fixing her glare on the lord General

"Well well well. You made yourself Comfortable Uncle." Avona growled.

The lord general was horrified as he stared at the facial features of Avona. "Violet." He breathed in horror.

"NO Uncle Its Avona Know and I'm here to free Rendili from you.' She growled stunning him.

"Lock him up and ship him to Morelia." She orders facing Carmiya and Selene. 

Carmiya Nodded while Selene looked stunned at what just happened. But Avona's glare told her to drop it.

(1 week later).

After flushing out the last of the republic forces Avona decided she wanted to address the people.

So the word was spread for a mass gathering that would even be broadcasted on the wide holonet. Approaching the balcony that overlooked a massive crowd down below Avona began her speech.

"People of Rendili I am General Avona of the confederacy of Independent systems and now I am glad to tell you all that you are officially free from the cruel dictator ship of the republic." Avona declared loudly followed by roaring cheers.

"Brothers and sisters for too long the republic has Cast you aside in favor of Kuat simply because they have grown contempt and lazy. The senate believes that firepower is greater than efficiency but I ask you this. What was a key to Rendili's great fleets that fought the Mandalorians and the sith.

It was your great star drive that led the republic into its golden age. But now all because of some upstart company who promised the republic bigger ships Rendili has been cast aside." Avona continues as roars of agreement are heard down below.

"Well you shall be neglected no longer. We of the confederacy vow that Rendili will be restored to its prime as the creator of the Mightiest fleets in the galaxy The republic will quiver at the mere sight of our great fleets and our mighty armies and the galaxy will be freed not by the blaster but by the will of you the people.

so I ask. WILL YOU STAND BY US UNTIL THE FINAL VISTORY." Avona yelled raising her fist into the sky.

Soon millions more fists were raised as Rendili civilians were galvanized against the republic.

In the palace Dungeons and elite trooper makes his way down to the cell of Commander velocity.

"Very Ironic isn't it Velocity You a Physical prisoner to us as opposed to a psychological one of the republic." The soldier mocked him.

"How do you know my name." Velocity demanded.

"I'm hurt that you don't recognize me brother." The soldier continued mocking him as he lifted his helmet up. Velocity's eyes shot up at the Sight before him.

"C-Commander Jet." Velocity stuttered.

Jet simply smirked. "Miss me." 

(Coruscant).

The underworld of Coruscant was in an uproar. Avona's speech hadn't just rallied the people of Rendili it made many low class civilians on Coruscant more eager to flee to Separatist worlds to destroy their hated senate.

The Jedi already had to break up 9 riots and protests and at one point 500 civilians were charging towards the senate building violence filling them and a desire for vengeance.

It took half the Guard and 5 Jedi to calm the rioters down with 20 of the rioters being killed.

In The temple there was chaos half the council wanted to Re take Rendili while the other half wanted to focus on the internal crisis the republic was suffering.

"We must take Rendili and stop Avona from harnessing the Power of the Rendili Ship Yards." Mundi argued.

"NO we must calm the people or else another military failure will surely send more than just Coruscant into a uproar." Plo argued back calmly.

"If we don't Take the initiative now. The Rendili ship yards will turn the tides of war and with Rendili Avona will have an open door for future campaigns into the core worlds." Windu argued back.

"No We could be walking right into a trap and besides our forces are already spread thin too much of a concentration on single planet will cripple us." Master galia argued firmly backing Plo.

Eventually it was Mundi, Master Rancisis, Windu, Tin, Master Koth, Even Piel, IN favor of retaking Rendili while opposing them was Kenobi, Galia, Fisto, Shak ti, Plo Kon. in Favor of focusing on internal Affairs.

Eventually Yoda gave approval for a new Campaign and The Jedi began planning as windu and Tin went to speak to Palpatine about their decision. 

(Unknown regions).

On a crystal Ball a man with a hood watches as Selene slices clones and leads droids into Ryloth.

"Master." Comes a raspy voice.

"What.' the man questions coldly.

"We have word that your daughter has recently Aided in the Capture of Rendili master."

The man has no face except for a metallic mask.

"hehe he heh. Good Prepare the warriors it is time for a new order to rise in the shadows and my daughter will help us strengthen it." The man declared with a wave of his hand.

'The shadow Order is done hiding soon we will revel ourselves to you our one true leader The one who will unite the dark and the light.' The man thinks to himself as the image shifts on the Crystal to Avona raising her fist into the air.
