Kayen swore as he poked his arm around the corner and fired blindly a few times before he pulled his arm back. The corridor wasn't very large so his bolts should have hit something. He then lowered himself to the ground and grabbed the foot of the dead soldier and he pulled him towards him quickly. Luckily the soldier had died holding his weapon and Kayen took it and then he lifted up the body in one arm as a shield and he came out of the hole to fire again but this time he was able to aim.

The soldiers fell back towards the door, firing in pairs as they went. One of them dropped from a shot to the chest. Another one took a shot in the arm but continued to fight. They were genetically engineered to feel stunted pain in order to keep fighting.
When Kayen turned around again to fire on them, they had fallen back several feet and into inlets themselves. They're firing rate dropped slightly as they stopped to reload their rifles.
One of them took the time to remove a grenade from his harness and pulled the pin. It was a puck shaped grenade, the kind that slid or rolled across floors. He opted to slide it. the black colored explosive slid across the smooth floor towards Kayens cover.

Kayen looked at the grenade and grinned as he quickly dropped the dead soldier and then he ran forward, lucky they were reloading because he was wide open as he yelled "FORE!" and swung the droid arm like a golf club. He figured the grenade was timed and it could have blown him apart, but he sent it flying right back toward the soldiers and then he dove sideways into another inlet.

The Grenade exploded, showering the corridor with shrapnel and smoke. The soldier who had sustained the arm injury caught a bit of it in the leg but again he ducked behind cover and reloaded his weapon.
Mr. Blue watched the firefight through the helmet cams of the soldiers. They were putting up a good fight, and Mr. Blue was confident the single intruder they were against would be killed.
Dr. White, Black and Green had begun their evacuation. The techs had started moving all the portable equipment into their escape vehicle. How their location had been compromised was a mystery, but right now they didn't care, they were on their way out. Jor was on a gurney being wheeled along to take his place on their escape vehicle. He was the latest and greatest project they had yet but they hadn't had the time to being the mind wiping and reprogramming process.
Jor however was waking up. The sedative they had given him to keep him under was quickly being counteracted by the BlackBlood, which bonded with the chemical and flushed it through his system.
Dr. White and his team had boarded their escape vessel, Dr. Black was working with the techs on loading the portable equipment. Dr. Green was the one pushing the gurney. Unfortunate for him, which Jor woke up and in a fit of cybernetic insanity induced anger broke from his restraints. The gurney flew down the hallway, Dr. Green with it, slamming into a sliding glass door and into one of the smaller side laboratories. Dr. Green looked down at himself, the edge of the gurney had impacted his abdomen so hard it broke his spine. He couldn't feel his legs, which was good because there was a large jagged edge of glass sticking from it.
Jor bounded down the hallway, his powered suit and abnormally strong legs carrying him fast and with wide strides. Soon he was towering over Green. A scream emanated from his mouth, which in turn was filtered through the speakers on his helmet. His head, probably the only thing that hadn't been touched by surgery was still plugged into nearly a dozen different computer systems.
Green would remember that scream for the rest of his life, even if the rest of his life had been longer then the 3.692143 seconds Jor had aloted him. Jor's fully robotic left hand plunged right through Green's neck and brain stem like slicing through bred, severing his skill from his spine. After a sickening sound of flesh being torn from flesh Jor was holding the doctors head in his hand like a bowling ball.

As the smoke and shrapnel flooded the corridor, Kayen felt something, like an emotional explosion but he didn't have time to worry about it. He quickly swung the soldier's enhanced blaster from his shoulder and started to walk through the smoke, firing repeatedly at the soldiers. But when he was not hitting very much, Kayen turned his shots at the lights. The first light blew up sending a surge of energy through the wiring and they all went out. In the total black of darkness, Kayen's eyes adjusted quickly because he had been in the dark a lot lately, or perhaps it was just a sixth sense, either way he had a momentary advantage and tried to take out as many of the men as possible.

Being engineered, the soldiers were quick to adapt to the light change as well. Their weapons flared in the dark as they fired. Mr. Blue was on the move, headed for their location though, and the soldiers knew it. It was only a manner of time before Kayen was trapped between them and the invisible cybernetic warrior.
Jor on the other hand was on a rampage. If it had lights, he smashed it. If it had a door, he made his own. If it looked like it could break, he broke it. If it looked like it could be fixed, he made sure it couldn't. He picked up a computer chair and used to crush the body of a tech who had been sent back to retrieve the computer backups.
Glass littered the hallways and it wasn't long before the remaining B2 battle droids were rerouted from their march to the door and sent to deploy in the lower levels to try and contain Jor, alive if possible. Jor however was ready for them. He heard their communication traffic as if it were from inside his own head. Like a thousand rose barbs inside his mind he heard the droids intranet link as they communicated with eachother wireless. Somehow the strings of ones and zeros were translated and Jor knew what they meant, he knew what they were saying, he could feel it, hear it, taste it.
Jor needed to silence it. He needed to quiet the horrible sound in his head. He broke though a drywall partition and into a group of B2's. His fists and legs were blinding in speed as they lashed out, denting their plating, digging into their photoreceptors, ripping out their electronics. In moments there were 4 B2 battle droids on the ground, twitching and sparking.

Kayen cursed as a blaster bolt passed a little too close to him and he quickly dropped to one knee and fired his blaster right into the chest of one of the soldiers as he peeked out and then Kayen dodged into the inlet with the dead soldier. Kayen dropped to a knee and unhooked the entire belt of grenades from the corpse and then he pulled the pin on the first grenade and lobbed the entire belt into the hall between him and the rest of the soldiers. He hoped the huge explosion would collapse the hall and get the soldiers off his ass so he could keep going.

The roof did more then collapse. The explosion tore into ceiling and the the wooden supports above the cinder block ceilings were pulverized by the shockwave. The corridor began to cave in hundreds of pounds of bricks and dirt, collapsing outward from the explosion towards the soldiers and Kayen too.
Jor was just about to pass out again. The wireless networks in his brain were like nails digging into his gray matter. He closed his eyes but that offered little peace. behind his eyelids all he saw was scrolling data.
it was almost to much for him but in a last fit of insanity he reached down to the base of his helmet and pulled the release. The hiss sounded of pressure being released and the pulled the helmet free. He felt himself being unplugged from some of the noise, he couldn't hear the signals anymore, he couldn't feel the droids talking in his mind.
He could still feel the systems within the suit plugged into his brain, but at least the psychosis in his head had subsided enough that he could actually think. He could remember himself, who he was. Then he passed out.

Kayen saw the cave in coming and he turned and ran as fast as he could, yelling "HOLY SHIT!!!" When he got to a turn in the hall, he spun around the corner and kept hauling ass until the collapse stopped.

The tunnel stopped collapsing just short of Kayen. the soldiers on the other side were buried under the dirt and debris except for one. One of them had managed to jump back from the collapse through the door. Coughing the soldier tried to make his way to the surface.
Down the hall from Kayen however, was Mr. Blue. he retrieved his weapon from his back and held it out in front of him. The sound of a force pike extending to full length echoed down the corridor to Kayen's ears.
Jor awoke again, the cramped feeling of the helmet placed back on his head. The nanobots in his blood had woken him back up once the suit had automatically replaced the helmet on his head.
The computer systems of the suit were not used to being interfaced with an active human mind and were adjusting to the level of input. The suits primary goal was the survival of the subject grafted to it's interior and it had unknowingly almost caused that subject's brain to fry by overloading it with data.
The suit toned down the data being fed to the biological parts of the body and filtered out the nonessential information to be processed by the suits computers rather than Jor's brain. Jor blinked his eyes and almost felt human again. He could think without the pain of needles being driven through his mind. The inhuman data wasn't in his mind anymore and things were beginning to clear.
Jor got up to his knees and saw that he had thrown up on the floor. It wasn't food or bile however, considering he didn't have a stomach. It was a black ooze substance. He wondered what it was for a moment and the suit responded by feeding his brain data on the substance. Jor suddenly knew, as if by instinct, that the substance was the nanobot solution that was running through his veins now. He had regurgitated some of the dead, inert machines that had finished the reparation on his surgically altered digestive tract.
Jor looked left and right down the hall. He focused on specific objects trying to ascertain his location but he was having difficulty because as soon as he focused on an object his helmet would single it out, zoom in on it, feed his brain information on it and list text information on his HUD.
The whole experience was disconcerting. Even his movements were fast and more pronounced. He was having trouble just crawling because every move he made was like he was exerting the strength required to move hundreds of pounds and moving so fast that he found it hard to follow his own movements.
finally he gave up and collapsed on the floor. He rolled over on his back and looked at his hands. they were encased in cold mechanical gauntlets now. He knew what they were, he knew he could never remove them. as soon as he focused on them his suit told him exactly what they were, which led him to figure out exactly what had been done to him. If he could have cried he would have, but now wasn't the time for that. Now was the time for thinking rationally to get him out of here.
Jor steeled his resolve and tried to get up again, accidentally punching a 4 inch dent in the stone floor and pushing himself over on his back again. he laughed, mostly to himself but a little at fate. He rolled over and tried again.

Kayen heard the sound of the force pike and he muttered "what now....?". He lifted the modified blaster ahead of him as he walked carefully down the corridor, blue eyes darting around as he listened for anything else and then he decided to try something a little stupid that just might work, he yelled "Jor! If you're still alive I'm going to kick your ass when we're safe!"

Mr. Blue remained cloaked, his padded feet making silent footsteps as he walked, almost with a feminine like gait. The spear like force pike held in front of him vertically.
He almost couldn't resist the urge to spook him out by chatting with him while invisible. To erode his confidence by taunting him from the shadows. But Mr. Blue wasn't engineered to be stupid. He was intelligent and calculating.
He kept close to the wall, slinking along it like slime, like a bead of mercury sliding across a smooth surface. After he had circled he withdrew the blaster from it's shoulder holster and pointed it at Kayen, stun setting on. He squeezed the trigger and fired.

Kayen's mind flashed and he didn't know how to explain what happened next, but he sensed danger and dove to the floor. A split second later a stun bolt sailed over him and Kayen didn't hesitate, he rolled over to one knee and lunged at the source of the stun bolt, his arms wide opened hoping to embrace the invisible attacker... and even if he missed him, Kayen hitting the ground would kick up A LOT of dust... enough to make the invisible visible again.

Mr. Blue swung the but of his force pike left to right, striking Kayen in the head while leaping over Kayens tackle. His padded feet touching the ceiling, brushing lightly as he side flipped over Kayen and landed behind him.
He deactivated his cloaking device to reveal himself to his adversary. He didn't know how this one had even managed to find the Staff, but it didn't matter now. He'd be dead in a few minutes anyway, and Mr. Blue would follow his master out.

Kayen hit the floor and rolled over quickly to his feet to face Mr. Blue and then he blinked softly. The back of his head had been grazed by the blade and he had a little blood coming down his neck but he ignored it. Kayen grinned slowly as he lifted his lightsaber hilt from his belt and ignited the purple blade. "Let's see how you can fight when you're not invisible... ew you're an ugly son of a bitch! So what do I call you after you're dead? How about Dr. Evil?" Kayen smirked slightly as he tried to get into the head of the man.
