| - Ty and the other acolytes disembarked the carrier at the docking bay. She ran into the facility, which was now barely standing. A squadron of Sith bombers destroyed the carrier and killed other other acolytes seconds later. Ty ran into the command center to the base's commander, a young man named Colonel Heron. Upon seeing him, she recognized who he was. She remembered seeing him on Nagui and Yavin IV. He was a Special Forces team member. Heron turned and by the look on his face he must have recognized Ty also. He snapped out of the shock. "Joined the Imperials, huh? Well if you want to make yourself useful, Sector 11 is losing badly." said Heron. Ty nodded and walked down a nearby corridor that lead to the outside Sector 11 area. She turned down another hall when she saw several Special Operations troops getting killed by someone skilled with throwing knives. Then she recognized it was her old friend, Mai. Mai finished off the other Special Operations team soldiers and then turned to Ty. "Just because we were friends in the past, I still won't hesitate to bring you down." said Mai in a cold voice. Ty ignited her lightsaber and Mai lounged at her. John couldn't believe that the former Head of Government of the Sadow Empire was now an Imperial. He didn't have time to think about it now. Then, he heard a scream from a nearby corridor. John drew his blaster pistol from his holster and ran down the corridor. "I'll be right back!" he yelled to the Stormtrooper lieutenant in the room. John turned a corner and saw another girl, same age as Ty, throw a throwing knife at Ty's arm, which she cut in half with her lightsaber. Mai was facing at Ty, with her back to the hallway, and John blasted her with his pistol. He then recognized the girl as the one he saw with Ty on Negui and Yavin IV. Ty got up and continued on her way to Sector 11. John thought he heard a 'thanks' yelled back from down the hallway. He returned to the command room to see that the stormtroopers were crowding by the corridor entrance and blasting inside the room. He saw that the command center was overrun with Sith troopers. John took out his blaster and fired back, killing some troopers. Lieutenant Frost, a stormtrooper, looked at John. "Colonel, Sith troopers broke through Sector 5 and took the control room, as you can see. They have almost taken the storage facilities 1-3, but Storm commandos have just arrived in time to stop them from taking Facility 4." said Frost. "All right, just keep fighting." replied John. "We can push them back to the facility entrance, and flank the troops in the facilities 1-3." Ty looked at the surviving defenders of Sector 11, who were outnumbered badly by Sith heavy troopers. She forced pushed several squads of heavy troopers off a nearby building top, and joined the battle. Several minutes later, the Sith were forced to retreat.
