Vanelli’s eyes turned upwards at the sound of a jetpack and watched the bounty hunter touch down behind her. Neither the Nautolan or the human had opened fire on the bounty hunter, so she assumed that he was on their side.
The trooper turned to the bounty hunter and gestured at the Nautolan working on the access panel, letting him know that the Nautolan was trying to get the gate open.
Vanelli felt the presence of an approaching Sith and spun on her heels to face the oncoming threat. Blaster fire erupted from behind her as the quick-fingered trooper unleashed on the Sith. Just as suddenly the blaster bolts were sent flying back, exploding into the area surrounding the trooper. The trooper was thrown back into the blast gate by the Sith.
Vanelli turned to check on the fallen trooper. Luckily, it didn’t look like any of the deflected blaster bolts had come back and hit him. The trooper’s injuries didn’t appear to be too severe, but it didn’t look like he would be rejoining the battle anytime soon. Vanelli looked over her shoulder to see another Jedi dueling the Sith. The other Jedi and the Sith appeared to be fairly evenly matched, but the Jedi seemed to be slowly coming out on top, having disarmed the Sith of his lightsaber.
Just as sudden as it started, the fighting stopped and the two stared each other down. The Jedi drew another lightsaber as the Sith drew back his hood and retrieved his own lightsaber with a tug with the force.
Vanelli drew her saber and ran at the Sith’s back. Vanelli used a force jump, her lekku trailing out behind her as she came down on the Sith with a double-handed chop. The Sith turned and deftly parried the Twi’lek’s attack and countered with a flurry of his own. Vanelli parried the flurry and spun to her left, sending a backhand swing at the Sith’s weapon arm. The Sith blocked the backhand and returned the favor with a kick to the Twi’lek’s abdomen, sending her stumbling back a few steps.
