Chapter 27 - Dark Reaper (1/2)
”You two will stay here, defend the ship and stop any Separatist ship who tries to escape. My pilots were almost all shot down on Rhen Var.”
Dageer had an objection, as he couldn't see a reason why he should stay on the ship.
”Sir, I understand why Steel Company stays here, as they are an air force. However, Hell Squad is an infantry unit. We will be of no help up here.”
”Are you sure? Six men would not make any difference down there, but here, if we discover that the Separatist are escaping with prisoners you are the best choice to board the enemy ship.”
”But... Ok sir!”
”While you are here you are under Admiral Yazeb.”
General Kenobi left, and went to tell Hell Squad their new orders.

On a closed, dark room, General Kenobi was facing an hologram of General Di.
”Obi-Wan, what I am about to tell you can be known to you and by you only. You can't tell anyone, not even your padawan.”
”Alright Master Di, don't keep me anxious.”
”Many years ago, as a padawan I came across a piece of information. This information was so terrifying that I told my master, and he decided to tell only Master Yoda and Master Windu. He gave me repeated warnings not to tell anyone.
Not too much later he died, and Master Yoda called me to make sure I wouldn't say it to my own padawan. The information is about a Sith weapon, known as the Dark Reaper.”
Kenobi felt a chill when he heard the name. It seemed as if the Force got disturbed only by mentioning the weapon.
