- As overconfidence always does, Mara's proved costly. Alema dropped her lightsaber and stretched out her arm, driving her sharp Twilek finger talons into Mara's throat and twisting aside so that the short lightsaber slipped past without hitting anything.
- Mara's breath stopped instantly, and she felt herself choking on something wet and warm. She started to bring her arms together, intending to cross her blades through Alema's body, then realized they had dropped to her sides. She started to bring them up, but Alema's eyes had grown dark, and tiny forks of energy were crackling across her blue face.
- Mara did not have the half a second it would take to raise her arms again, so she simply threw herself backward, pulling her throat off the talons and bringing her legs up to either side of Alema's. A bolt of blue lightning crackled past above her face so close she saw it even through closed eyes.
- Mara was already scissoring her feet, catching the Twilek below the knees with one leg and above the knees with the other. The two foes hit the floor in the same instant, Alema coming down hard on the back of her head.
- The Twilek went instantly limp, her arms and body flopping to the floor as though her robe were filled with warm gelmeat. Mara sat up, already bringing her lightsaber around to lop off Alema's head-then stopped the blade just centimeters above the Twi'lek's throat. She could not kill an unconscious foe, even one who had betrayed the Jedi order..even when she was in a hurry to help Luke.
