Alora ducked the swing of a wicked looking halberd, then swept off the droid arm that held it before swirling and deflecting a blaster bolt.

-Well, this has got to be one of more honest receptions we've gotten,- she mused, watching as another bolt went through the edge of her swirling robe. -They didn't even pretend to be glad to see us. Master! Protect her! ...Thank You.-

She clenched her teeth as Tiji turned just in time to meet the droid that had intended to attack her from behind, then whirled with a slight creak of armor to meet her own next opponent.

Her husband nodded, then looked at his lady, who gathered the three babies into her arms and offered them to Carth, the only man with empty arms.

"We'll get everyone out, but the babies might get hurt," he rumbled. "Please, will you...."

"Yes," whispered Alora, sighing.

"Oh, uh," Carth said, staring at them. "Actually, it might be better if you carried them. We can escort you to our ship. You'll have to wait there while we get the other hostages out, though."

"We can help." The man's eyes flashed.

Alora sighed as her Master's light swelled around her, then pushed away from Jolee and sat up.

"Still it- Alora!" Carth turned.

Atton blinked as Tiji sighed and moaned again.

"Alright. You're alright," he said softly, smiling, then looking up. "Yeah. This pest will be up in a few. So, what's the game plan?"

She leaned over and gave her husband a quick kiss, hand resting on his shoulder as she turned her head to survey the blood pooling in the wreck of her armor.

"Tiji, will you take the babies to the ship?"

"Whoa, no walking yet," Atton admonished, picking her up and then Force lifting the babies up and into the girl's lap, gathering the babies close. "Yeah, alright, I've got them," he said.

"Come on," Carth sighed, lifting Alora carefully while Jolee took point. "Let's go."

"No." She wriggled free. "We don't have time for everyone to go back to the ship."

"Then what?" Carth said, letting her down but not letting go.

She handed the Togorian man her comlink, then turned to Atton. "Will you help Tiji take the little ones to the Hawk and send Juhani and Bastila? Jolee, will you go with the Togorians and clear the west side of the complex? Where's Canderous?"

Carth frowned.

"Still on board with Laka," he said, nodding to Atton, who gathered the bundle close and took off, dissappearing almost immediatly.
