Narration: "Cad Bane, having eliminated one Jedi already in his quest to get Mace Windu after him, now sets his eyes on eliminating Master Stass Allie. Can he eliminate Master Allie, and get Windu after him?"
Stass Allie and Commander Drys stand by their outpost, the only two left from their squad after the recent battle. Nearby, slave I lands, and out steps Cad Bane, Boba Fett and Sintas Vel. "Don't mess up this time!" Bane tells Boba. Boba and Sintas then exchange glances behind Bane's back, and Sintas says "Never miss with the first shot. 'Cause you'll never get another." Boba replies "I'm already on my third chance." Sintas says "You don't like his methods, do you?" and Boba replies "To put it mildly, I thought the worst was over when I left Aurra Sing." Boba and Sintas re-join Bane, who is now standing with a squad of Commando Droids. Bane says "Attack!" to the droids, and they charge at Stass Allie and Drys position. Stass Allie manages to chop up a couple of droids, but Bane has snuck up behind her, and ties her around the waist with a rope, before placing electric shockers on her wrists. Drys attempts to shoot Bane, but Sintas shoots his gun out of his hands. Boba brings up a hologram of Mace Windu, and lets Mace watch as Sintas executes Drys. Boba tells Mace "You better come quickly, Windu. Otherwise this Jedi will be excuted." The hologram disappears. Anakin and Yoda contact Obi-Wan. Anakin tells Obi-Wan "Obi-Wan! You might want to hurry, because Boba Fett is about to execute Master Allie!" Obi-Wan replies "I'm on it." Once the hologram vanishes, Obi-Wan says to the Clone Pilot "Speed it up, double time. We don't know when they will execute Master Allie!" and the Clone Pilot replies "Yes, sir!". The Republic gunship lands on the surface. The gunship doors open, and Obi-Wan and Plo Koon step out. They are followed out by the clones. "Do we even know what we're doing?" Clone Trooper Bolt asks. Commander Cody replies "Yes. Stop Bane at all costs, no matter what." Bolt says to fellow trooper Wire "Some omen!" and Wire says "This should be interesting. Let's get on with it." Bolt, Wire, Cody and the several 212th clones on the mission follow Obi-Wan and Plo Koon to the edge of the cliff...
As the Republic force moves in, they are ambushed and come under attack. Cad Bane confronts them, and shoots at Obi-Wan and Plo Koon, who dodge before igniting their lightsabers. Boba Fett and Sintas Vel, along with the Commando Droids, join Bane. "You're going back to prison, Bane!" and Bane retorts "Says the one who keeps failing to put me there!" Wire is too eager for his own good, and steps in front of Plo and Obi-Wan for a better shot. Sintas attempts to snipe Wire down, but Plo deflects the blaster bolt. Cody, Bolt and the other clones open fire, taking down several Commando Droids. Cad Bane tosses a thermal detonator, taking out a couple of clones, but Bolt shoots one of his pistols aside. Sintas says to Boba "Come, we must move on!" before grabbing Boba by the arm. Boba and Sintas run from the scene of the fight, to try and find cover. Bane grunts angrily, but can do nothing right now to stop them. Bane uses his jetpack to try and retrieve his pistol below the cliff, but Plo jumps down the cliff and attacks Bane, but Bane still manages to recover his pistol. Bane draws his other pistol out, and attempts to shoot Plo with both pistols, but Plo deflects the attack. Up above, Obi-Wan pursues Boba and Sintas, leaving Cody and the clones to finish off the Commando Droids, which they do. "Let's go help Master Plo!" Wire says, and he and Bolt slide down the cliff to help Plo. "Wait!" shouts Cody, but too late. Cody decides to lead the two remaining generic 212th clones around for a better vantage point. Bolt and Wire fire down at Bane with their DC-15 blasters from above. Bane holds off Plo long enough to fire back at them, but can't get a clear shot and misses. "Can't aim well, can you?" gloats Bolt, as he shoots Bane in the jetpack. To Bolt's horrow however, it sends Bane and Plo further down the cliff and out of sight. By this time, Cody has arrived and seen everything. "Next time, listen to your commander, and don't do anything hasty!"Bolt and Wire reply "Sorry, sir." Obi-Wan's pursuit of Boba and Sintas leads him to Stass Allie, and he uses up some time to cut her free. Having recovered her lightsaber, Obi-Wan and Stass Allie continue their pursuit...
Hiding in cover, Boba and Sintas sit alone together. Boba notices Sintas deep in thought, and asks "What's up?" and Sintas replies "It's Bane. I've just realized he is only focused on the job, and doesn't care who gets killed on either side, so long as he succeeds." Boba replies "Makes sense, due to Bane's record stating he only is in it for the money." Sintas asks Boba "Have you ever considered life, away from the war?" Boba replies "Not really. Ever since my father died on Geonosis, it's been all about revenge on Mace Windu." Sintas says "Piece of advice. Forget the revenge. It was a massive battle, in the heat of the moment, anyone could have done anything. So I say forget all about Mace Windu, and lead a life not concentrating solely on him. " Boba asks "What are you in it for then?". "A girl's got to make a living" is Sintas's reply. Boba and Sintas continue to sit there, wondering what will hapenn to them next...
