Sal had switched targets onto the incoming soldiers and noticed that her bursts was being taken considerably well by the soldiers, they were obviously well equipped. Sure enough however, a few shots hit their mark well and knocked down a couple of soldiers, that was just before a stream of laserfire enveloped the window Sal was crouched against. To avoid this laserfire, she decided to spin to her left, taking cover against the wall to the left of the window place and giving her time to reload. She did so and then spun back out again, crouching but giving herself enough time to fire a few shots before spinning back into cover again. After that, she decided to use up the rest of her ammo by simply blind-firing from behind the wall at the incoming soldiers.

The Reapers crouched as the hail of shots came in. Most of the shots were taken by the armor or missed, but a few hit, and the hit Reapers went down. "Sir! She's behind cover! What should we do?" a Reaper asked Don Azul. Don thought for a second. "MORDRED launcher?" he asked. A trooper with one equipped came over. Don pointed. "That part of the wall there." The trooper nodded, got down on one knee, and fired 2 shots. The rods shot towards the wall and hit, punching through and causing the wall to crumble.
At that point, the 2 squads coming in from the other side burst through the new hole in the wall, and caught the assassin with a hail of stun bolts before she had a chance to move.

Delona struggled as she staggered back, deflecting several bolts before taking in her situation. She then turned to see that Sal was struggling to hold back the approaching soldiers so with a quick grab with the force, felt the detonator and squeezed the trigger, igniting the explosives either side of the door. With that, Delona continued onto the offensive, to try and keep Talia from getting herself together again. It was too late however, the explosives had only managed to keep extra reinforcements which were now unnecessary from entering the room and Sal had taken shots. Delona knew that soon Talia would back away from the duel and the soldiers would pierce her flesh with a dozen bolts, that was until however she felt Sal's pain. It was different, she had cut up enemies to tiny pieces in the past and they hadn't suffered this way. That was when she realised stun bolts must have been used, the pain was only in specific areas and not deep wounding. Delona finally locked blades before stepping back and turning off her lightsaber, her hand moved forwards, offering it to Talia.

"That won't be necessary" Talia said with a wave of her hand, "We know who you are working for, and that is why we are here" she said, turning off her own lightsaber. Although she had done this, there was plenty of weapons targeted at Delona if she did make a move. "The Empress was kidnapped, we think we know who's done it, but don't know where... you can help us".

Delona kept quiet for a few seconds, knowing that making excuses would be fruitless. Hearing the news of the kidnapping however, was a surprise. Taking into consideration that she was now surrounded and it would be suicidal to attempt escape, she placed the lightsaber back onto her belt. "You don't know why she was taken then do you?" she asked, seeing little reaction. "Well, the Black Guard found intelligence on a group that was forming, attempting to stabilise the unification under one government, no matter who or how this was done by. These people are in every government in every region of space, most in positions of power. They don't know who else is on the list, but know they are everywhere. The Black Guard saw this as a threat, indeed it was, while so many people were not dedicated to a side, no faction would achieve the upper hand truly, corruption would take order over events. When they connected up several identities to one person however, they saw the person who had led them to such information had also being behind it. Jalua intended on using the Black Guard to see the destruction of possible rivals, so that she would be able to rid the corruption from the list of those who would support a single government and with that, have an advantage which nobody else had. If she ever encountered a threat, she could use these people, so could she if she gained the upper-hand and had a chance at getting into a position like the Empire's done. Once the Black Guard realised what she was doing however, I imagine they wasn't too pleased. That head of security was actually on the list, someone who was willing to get rid of the current administration and help form one in support of a unified government. That is what this is all about, the wars your facing aren't that important, its the intelligence that is the key to all this. With that, anyone could shape things how they wanted to, especially the Sith".

Talia didn't respond for a while, the Black Guard had obviously taken the Empress, but where? "So where would we find them and this list?" Talia asked, knowing that was going to be the next question.

"I can't tell you," Delona said before pointing at Sal, "But she can".

"I can't give you coordinates" Sal said, now that the pain was wearing off. She limped over to the others, surrounded herself by soldiers. "There isn't any coordinates that i know of for the place, you get there using the plane of the galaxy, distance and angle. Once i get to Salanda i can find the course we need to take".

"That may be a problem." said Dan. "We have Imperials over the planet, so we're a bit stuck at the momment. The best I can do for now is get us spaceside."

"Well let's get up there and do the best we can" she said, beginning to walk with the others out of the room and towards the transport.
