After Order 66, few Jedi dare to venture outside the shadows—rumors of the dark and terrible Darth Vader haunting even their waking moments. Yet, some Jedi find this life of fear unbearable. The Empire is always watching, and Vader himself is eager to confront any Jedi that might bring him closer to the whereabouts of his betrayer, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

As Uri attempts to strike at the mysterious figure, it provides an opening for Shoshannah. The Jedi grabs her DC-17 hand pistol and fires at the dark armored, red blade wielding warrior engaged with Janos, Uri, and Granite. The dark warrior quickly brings her blades to block the incoming blaster shot and does so avoiding any injuries, but at the cost of acting too quickly. Her grips on the red bladed lightsabers weaken causing her them to fall to the floor and extinguishes.

Undeterred by her wounds and being disarmed by Shoshannah's blast, the warrior quickly kneels to retrieve their lightsabers and re-ignites them once more. Sizing up her opponents, she spots Granite still laying prone, Janos standing off against her wielding a lightsaber, and the Padawan Uri holding a lightsaber to her other side. Believing Janos is her greatest threat at the moment, she focuses her anger versus the Jedi Knight.
Her quick strikes are initially held back by Janos, but her forceful and anger powered strikes eventually overpowers the Jedi Knight knocking his lightsaber out of his hands. With her blade raised over the weaponless Jedi Knight Janos, the two Jedi Knights Granite and Janos ...
Any Jedi, Any Jedi, Sister, Any Jedi, Any Jedi
Granite and Janos hasn't went yet this round, so they are last two in the init for this round

Granite - 2 strain, prone, in melee with sister
Janos - 3 strain, in melee with sister, lightsaber on ground
Shoshannah - short range to sister
Red Blade Sister - 5 strain, 16 wounds (yes she's a nemesis)
Only Granite's pride has been harmed so far. He got in a good punch, but overextended and ended up on the floor. He picks himself up and draws his vibroaxe, ready to fight on.
Maneuver to stand up. Action: Draw my Vibroaxe.

There's 1 triumph to spend here. Lots of options on how to use it. Let me know how to spend it.

Crit 95:(ppp) At the Brink: The target suffers 1 strain each time he performs an action.
Jedi Knight Granite pulls himself up from the floor and engages with his former friend alongside Janos and Uri. With his Vibroaxe in hand, he lands a solid blow with the axe, but the former Jedi Knight Rikros Batu stands tall as she blocks the strike with her forearms and pushes the blade away.
Round 2: only Janos left
Uri - 7 wounds, in melee with sister, gloves moderate damaged, Guarded Stance
Granite - 4 strain, prone, in melee with sister
Janos - 3 strain, in melee with sister, lightsaber on ground
Shoshannah - short range to sister

Glad as he was to have capable warriors at his side, Janos believes it is up to him to put a stop to the threat before them. Scooping up his lightsaber, Janos blends the action into an upward strike.

As the Jedi's attacks begin to surmount the dark figure's defenses, Janos ends the contest with a quickly placed lightsaber attack. His attack knocks the red bladed warrior unconscious causing her to drop her lightsabers.
Knowing their battle may have given away their location and with Uri moderately wounded, this brief moment gives them a chance to catch their breath and ...
"Good job," Shoshannah whispers to the others, then kneels down beside the unconscious Inquisitor. "Quick, help me search her. And then we can bind and gag her, so she can't easily come after us when she wakes up. Our mission to find out what was happening with the stones may be a bust, but there might be some valuable intelligence on her person!"
Cunning 2/ Perception 1 seems like the most applicable skill.
"I wonder if we shouldn't take her with us," Janos suggests, scooping up the fallen lightsabers. He had no intention on using the blades (save perhaps for parts) but they were better off not in enemy hands.
