My Clone Wars Stories Episode 120: Push Them Back

Characters: King Clakunk, Toydarian Soldiers, General Grievous, Mace Windu, Commander Neyo, 91st Reconaissance Clones, Bail Organa, Padme Amidala, Anakin Skywalker, Battle Droids, Super Battle Droids, Grapple Droids, Assassin Probes.

Narration: "Toydarian population under threat! With increasing attacks from General Grievous, king Clakunk struggles to keep his people at rest! Meanwhile, Republic forces led by Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu, devise a plan to weaken the enemy!"

Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala arrive at the generator. As they stand around the generator, the sounds of battle continue behind them. Anakin says "Here we go" and he pushes the generator switch. The generator turns out to be a trap though once the droids power is switched off, and a tidal wave instantly drenches both Anakin and Padme. They quickly lean in and kiss each other, both counting themselves lucky to be alive. They both laugh at how wet each other is. Had they been up in the courtyard, what they would see would not keep them laughing. Grievous has cold malice in his eyes, and a determination to kill commander Neyo. For now, Grievous makes do with Neyo's legion. "foolish clones" Grievous thinks to himself, as the more the clones charge him, the more clones Grievous slices up. With one squad left, all the clones in the squad charge Grievous, who simply stands his ground, and when the clones are in range, he tosses two of his lightsabers at them. As two clones are speared and the rest reel in what happened, Grievous attacks and kills the last of them. Once done, Grievous cuts his way into the palace. Mace Windu and Neyo immediately confront Grievous upon his entrance into the castle, with Clakunk hovering nervously in the background. Grievous laughs coldly and begins his attack...

Grievous proves more of a challenge this time for Mace and Neyo. Upon realizing their situation, Clakunk signals his soldiers forward, and he and his soldiers attempt to assist Mace and Neyo. Grievous holds off Mace and Neyo long enough to slaughter Clakunk and his soldiers, kicking Clakunk through a window and over a platform. Anakin and Padme meanwhile come under attack from grapple droids, who attempt to grab them. One grapple droid succeeds in grabbing Padme, but Anakin chops off it's hand with Padme still in the hand. The grapple droid attempts to stomp on the prone Padme, but Anakin slices it's legs off, sending it toppling to the ground. Anakin force-pushes the remains off the grapple droid onto the other one, and both become debris. Anakin and Padme continue walking, but get a shock when they come across Clakunk's body. "Clakunk's dead" Padme tells Anakin. "We better get up, and see what is going on" Anakin says. As they head towards the palace, Anakin watches as more 91st clones engage battle droids, but they have no time to help. Outside the palace, they meet up with Bail Organa, who tells them "Windu is dueling Grievous at the moment." Mace Windu chops one of Grievous's arms off, and knowing the battle is lost, Grievous flees, but not before giving Neyo a menacing look. Anakin and Padme inform Bail of Clakunk's death. Bail tells everyone "This it for Toydaria as a whole. I doubt they will ever look for a new king, as they have lost two already in this war." Padme says "Regardless of Toydaria's role in the war from now on, Katuunko and Clakunk's deaths will not be in vain..."
