Nikki stood on the dusty surface of Ryloth, the harsh sun casting long shadows over the rocky terrain. The arid landscape stretched out before her, dotted with the remnants of battles past and the persistent presence of Separatist forces. Rex stepped up to her with his helmet at his side, 

"General Sora,"

Nikki glanced at him and nodded, 

"What is it, Rex?"

"We've scouted the area, General. The droid presence is heavier than we anticipated, but nothing we can't handle."

Nikki smirked, 

"Alright. Good. We'll split into three groups. Rex, take Jesse, Kix, and Hardcase and move through the northern pass. Mixer, you take Dash, Boomer, and Redeye through the southern ridge. The rest of you are with me. We'll approach from the east and meet in the center."

They all nodded. As the squads moved out, Nikki felt the familiar hum of anticipation and the Force flowing through her. She led her group carefully through the jagged rocks, keeping her senses attuned to any signs of danger. The sound of clanking droid footsteps and the occasional blaster fire echoed in the distance, a constant reminder of the war that never seemed to end. She glanced around and held her lightsaber hilts in her hands, 

"Stay sharp. We need to take the droid patrols out quietly."

Nax scanned the area with his macrobinoculars, 

"I've got eyes on a droid patrol, General. About fifty meters ahead, by those boulders."

Nikki nodded, signaling for her troops to take cover. She reached out with the Force, feeling the presence of the droids ahead,

"Nax, Hez, take them out silently. We can't afford to alert the main force."

The two clones moved swiftly, their blasters set to stun as they approached the unsuspecting droids. Within moments, the patrol was neutralized, and the group continued their advance. Nikki smiled at them, 

"Good work, let's keep going,"

As they approached the central area where the three groups were to converge, Nikki activated her commlink, 

"Rex, Mixer, report in."

Rex's voice crackled through the commlink, 

"We're in position, General. No sign of heavy resistance so far."

Mixer's voice followed,

"Same here. We're ready to move on your command."

"Alright. On my mark, we hit them from all sides. Be ready for anything. May the Force be with us."

She got in her stance, Djem So, and smirked, 

"ATTACK!"

Blasters fired as the three groups converged on the droid encampment. The surprise attack caught the droids off guard, and chaos erupted as the clones and Nikki ignited her purple lightsabers and jumped down to start attacking alongside her troops. 

Nikki moved with grace and precision, her lightsabers blurs of purple as she deflected blaster bolts and cut down droids, 

"Push forward! We can't let them regroup!"

Denal and Hardcase took the lead, their blasters laying down covering fire as the rest of the squad advanced. Rex and his group joined the fray from the north, their coordinated attack adding to the pressure on the droid forces. Mixer and his team emerged from the southern ridge, completing the encirclement.

The battle was fierce, but it was clear that the element of surprise and their combined efforts were overwhelming the droid forces. Nikki felt a surge of hope as the last of the droids were cut down or fled the battlefield. Nikki narrowed her eyes as she didn't deactivate her lightsabers, 

"Secure the area! Make sure there are no more threats."

Jesse immediately called Hardcase and Denal to go with him to scout around for any stragglers. Rex walked up to Nikki, 

"That was easy,"

Nikki slowly nodded, 

"Yeah...I don't like it,"

"Neither do I,"

Then their comms crackled to life with Anakin's voice, 

"Sora! Rex! Come in!"

"Sora here,"

"Sora! Some droids got through us, they are heading your way! I called for some backup but they won't be here for a while. You have to hold them off,"

Nikki nodded, 

"Got it. I'll make sure everyone is ready,"

"Good, thank you,"

"No problem, Skywalker,"

Nikki then turned to look at her assigned troops, 

"Everyone, get ready! We have more droids heading our way. Rex, set up defensive positions. I'll warn Jesse, Hardcase, and Denal."

The clones sprang into action, setting up makeshift barricades and finding cover among the rocks. Nikki could feel the tension in the air as they awaited the incoming droid forces. She lifted her commlink, 

"Jesse, heads up for droids, Skywalker told me he let some slip by him,"

Jesse's voice crackled over the commlink, 

"Copy that, we see them. We've got a large contingent of droids heading straight for us. Looks like they're bringing in some heavy artillery too."

Nikki's grip tightened on her lightsabers, 

"Got it. Everyone, prepare for heavy resistance. We hold this position no matter what."

The ground began to tremble as the droid forces approached, the distinct sound of marching droids growing louder. Nikki could see them now, a sea of metallic soldiers advancing with deadly precision. At the front were several tanks and artillery units, their cannons aimed directly at the clone positions. Nikki shouted as the first wave of blaster fire erupted,

"Hold your ground!"  

She deflected the incoming bolts with her lightsabers, moving with fluid grace as she protected her troops. Around her, the clones returned fire, their blasters lighting up the battlefield. Rex took cover behind a boulder, firing his blaster rifle at the advancing droids, 

"Focus on the tanks! We need to take out their heavy weapons first!"

Denal and Hardcase moved swiftly, launching grenades at the droid tanks. Explosions rocked the battlefield as the grenades found their targets, sending debris and droids flying. Nikki used the Force to push back a group of droids that had gotten too close, her lightsabers a whirlwind of destruction. Rex glanced over at Jesse and Kix,

"Jesse, Kix, cover the flanks! We can't let them surround us!"

Jesse and Kix moved to the sides, their blasters cutting down droids attempting to flank their position. Nikki could see the determination in their faces. Amid the chaos, a droid tank aimed its cannon at their position. Nikki's eyes widened as she saw the impending danger. With a swift motion, she reached out with the Force, gripping the tank and yanking it off balance. The cannon's shot went wide, exploding harmlessly against the rocks. Nikki glared as she ducked before a blaster shot hit her,

"Keep pushing! We're almost through!" 

She moved forward, her lightsabers cutting a path through the droids. The clones followed her lead, their blasters firing in unison as they advanced. 

Blaster bolts flew overhead, and Nikki deflected them with her lightsabers, her movements less fluid than before. She could sense the desperation in her troops, the realization that their situation was becoming increasingly dire. The droids seemed endless, their relentless advance pushing the clones to their limits. She narrowed her eyes as she pushed Denal out of the way of a blaster bolt, 

"Thanks, General!"

"Don't thank me yet! We are almost there we just have to keep pushing!"

She felt a presence and laughed, 

"Get ready boys! The reinforcements are here!"

As soon as she said that, the familiar sound of a LAAT/i gunship echoed across the battlefield. Some of the clones cheered, and Nikki smiled as the ship landed. The ramp lowered, and Cal ignited his lightsaber, charging into the fray with fierce determination. His movements were a blur as he cut down droids left and right. Wrecker let out a battle cry as he charged a group of droids, his brute strength overwhelming them with ease. Crosshair took position on a ridge, picking off droids with deadly precision. Tech worked quickly to disable the droid tanks, his technical expertise proving invaluable. Echo provided support, coordinating the clones and directing their fire to critical targets.

Cal fought his way over to Nikki and smirked at her, 

"Would you look at that, you needed my help after all,"

Nikki rolled her eyes, 

"Hello to you too, Ax,"

Cal chuckled and nodded, 

"Let's finish this,"

Nikki nodded in agreement. Together, they moved through the battlefield, their combined force abilities and lightsaber skills creating a deadly synergy. Nikki lifted a group of battle droids into the air with the Force, slamming them into the ground with a powerful push. Cal followed up by slicing through a squad of droids, his lightsaber movements swift and precise. 

Cal and Nikki found themselves back-to-back amidst a swarm of droids. Cal's blue lightsaber danced through the air with precise strikes, while Nikki's purple blades spun in a deadly ballet of defense and offense. They moved in perfect sync, anticipating each other's movements without needing to speak.

A squad of battle droids advanced towards them, their blasters firing in unison. Rex glanced over at them as he felt concern crawl through his skin, 

"Generals!"

Nikki felt his concern immediately and smirked, 

"Captain! Sarge! Get those tanks out!"

Rex and Hunter shared a look but immediately ran to the tanks after getting some detonators from Wrecker and Hardcase. Nikki slowly pushed the droids away from her and smirked when she saw how far from Cal she was, 

"Axel!"

"Sora!"

"Boomerang!"

Cal smirked and immediately threw his lightsaber and she did too. The two lightsabers sliced through all the droids in between the Jedi Knight and Jedi Master before being caught by the other. The exchange caught the droids off guard. Cal and Nikki moved with renewed vigor, their lightsabers blurring as they cut through the droid forces with unmatched precision. Cal's blue blades danced with Nikki's purple ones, creating a deadly symphony of destruction that left a trail of sparks and dismantled droids in their wake.

Tech and Echo provided covering fire from a distance, picking off droids that tried to flank Cal and Nikki. Wrecker's booming voice echoed across the battlefield as he cleared a path for them, his massive frame acting as a bulwark against the droid onslaught.

Nikki felt a surge of adrenaline as she fought alongside Cal, their bond in the Force strengthening their already formidable skills. She could sense his movements before he made them, anticipating his strikes and adjusting her own accordingly. It was a dance of combat honed through years of battles fought side by side.

Amidst the chaos, Cal and Nikki's combined efforts turned the tide of the battle. The droid forces began to falter under the relentless assault, their numbers dwindling with each passing moment. Cal leaped into the air, flipping over a group of droids and landing gracefully behind them. Nikki followed suit, her lightsabers a blur of motion as she dispatched the remaining droids with swift, precise strikes.

As the last of the droid forces fell, Cal and Nikki stood amidst the wreckage of the battlefield, their chests heaving with exertion. They deactivated their lightsabers simultaneously, the blades retracting with a soft hum. The battlefield fell silent around them, save for the crackling of flames and the distant sounds of retreating droids. Everyone seemed to let out a sigh of relief as the fight stopped. Rex slowly walked over to Nikki and Cal with Hunter following next to him, 

"You two okay?"

Nikki shrugged, 

"As good as we can,"

Hunter smirked, 

"I never knew that Jedi use their lightsabers as boomerangs,"

Cal and Nikki chuckled and Cal patted his shoulder, 

"That's cuz they don't, although I think Anakin has been thinking of doing it,"

Rex winced and nodded, 

"He has been trying to get General Kenobi to do it with him but he refuses."

Nikki chuckled and patted Rex's shoulder, 

"Get that blaster wound looked at by Kix,"

Rex took off his helmet and stared at her, 

"How did you know?"

Nikki stared at him, 

"Rex. You are literally limping."

Hunter smirked, 

"She's got you there,"

Nikki and Cal swapped lightsabers again and then regrouped. Kix walked up to the two and glanced them over, 

"You guys okay?"

Nikki nodded, 

"Yeah, don't worry about us, Kix, any dead?"

Kix shook his head, 

"No, fifteen injured and that's all,"

Nikki sighed in relief, 

"Good,"

She glanced at Cal and his squad, 

"How did you guys get here so fast?"

Tech shrugged, 

"We have a fast ship,"

Crosshair crossed his arms, 

"We may have broken some traffic laws getting out of Coruscant,"

Echo shrugged and smirked, 

"I may have cursed some civies when they tried getting in our way,"

Cal sighed, 

"It was a long three hours,"

Nikki's eyes widened, 

"Three hours?"

Rex nodded, 

"Yes, it was a long battle,"

Nikki sat down on the floor, 

"Yeah, it was. Now I want everyone sitting and resting. I'm sure Anakin is gonna need us to save his sheb."

Cal gasped, 

"Sora, watch your language,"

Nikki glared at him and used the force to throw a rock at him but he caught it with a smirk, 

"Nice try, lil sister,"

Then their comms beeped and Nikki was first to answer, 

"Sora here,"

"Glad to hear you alive, I am still a little tied up on my end, and Anakin is coming my way to provide support, can you track down the last of the droids? They should be south of where you currently are,"

Nikki glanced around and Cal, Hunter, and Rex nodded to her, 

"Sure thing, Master, we will tell you when we leave Ryloth after defeating the last of the clankers,"

"Then I await your message. May the Force be with you,"

"And with you,"
