The column cracked some more from Peter, but still didn't completely budge.
With the persistence of the group's combined power, they were able to continue holding their own against the continuing onslaught of the creatures, leaving just the Sith Lord, with Kirby able to absorb the sonic powers of the creatures. Revan himself continued easily holding off Sarge's repeated shots, and even Kirk's as he popped in to help.
"Stand down! You're out of your league here!" The captain of the Enterprise exclaimed, to which Revan practically scoffed at.
"Fool. Only the Jedi in your party could hope to match me more than the rest of you combined, but even so, I will strike down as many of you as I must," Revan responded, clenching his fist with a calm storm of determination for everyone to see,
"Your powers, unfamiliar as they may be, are still nothing compared to the Dark Side of the Force."
However, before he could go on, something unexpected happened.
When Kumagawa attempted to erase the very concept of the Force, a bizarre result occurred, a product of being in a different dimension where the laws of nature were different, as the boy might have partially expected.
BOOM!
The air exploded like a sonic burst with enough force to knock everyone -- even Revan -- down for a brief moment, though no true harm came to anyone, though Vader, Meceliss, and Mizelia would feel something strange within themselves, their very connections to the Force feeling... off in some way. And more than that, every one of the strange creatures dropped dead without any warning, as though the very life was drained out of them.
Revan seemed to also feel this sensation that the other Jedi felt, looking at his gloved hand for a brief moment, before turning his gaze to Kumagawa, his mask feeling as though it did little to hide the intense anger within, even if it still completely obscured his face.
"You stupid child! This entire system -- of this very atmosphere -- teems with the Dark Side of the Force! And you've created a tear in that space! And with the inhabitants of this world dead... like an artificial wound in the Force..."
"What the hell are you talking about?!" Kirk exclaimed after scrambling back to his feet, still clutching his phaser tightly,
"What's a wound in your Force got to do with anything?!"
Before the Dark Jedi could answer, another boom in the air could be felt. Or rather, a series of smaller, weaker bursts throughout the air. Anyone who looked to the side would see an army of armored soldiers suddenly there out of nowhere, more and more of them suddenly appearing out of thin air, like spirits rematerializing into corporeal form.
"Revan! You and your Republic have been a thorn in the side of the Mandalorians for far too long! This ends now!" One of the soldiers exclaimed, before he and the rest of his allies opened fire on Revan, the Sith Lord forced to go on the defensive against their combined fire as he deflected them all. However, it was far too early to call them any semblance of "ally," as the soldiers also began firing upon the entire group as well, as though believing them to be allies of Revan!
"Die, Republic scum!"
"Replace one enemy with another! Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire," Kirk hissed, taking cover behind some stray debris and attempting to fight off the soldiers that called themselves Mandalorians, his attention forced to diverge from Revan.
"The Mandalorians are among the fiercest of soldiers in the galaxy, leagues above mindless creatures. You would do well to focus your attention on them if you wish to live," Revan said, tentative as he was to give advice to his adversaries,
"They must be appearing because of the memory of the planet... It's going back to that time..." He murmured, mostly to himself, it seemed.
