Characters: Count Dooku, General Grievous, Battle Droids, Mother Talzin, Nightsisters, Nightbrothers, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Commander Cody, ARC Trooper Rex, Clone Trooper Boil, 501st Clones, 212th Clones, Commander Appo, ARC Trooper Wolffe, Savage Opress.
Narration: "Dathomir is under severe threat! War rages across the home of the nightsister and nightbrother clans, with a terrible war spreading across the planet. As Separatists look to eliminate Mother Talzin, we find Anakin Skywalker and the 501st attempting to finish off the nightbrothers!"
Outside the final nightbrother village, one nightbrother calls out "They are coming." Once the words are out of his mouth, Anakin Skywalker appears at the top of the hill, and he charges towards the nightbrothers. A couple of nightbrothers confront him, but Anakin slices their pikes in half, before impaling the nearer nightbrother. The other nightbrother takes several blaster bolts in the back, as the clones appear on the hill. Appo makes to shoot again, but Rex holds him back, and tells Appo "We can't do this, Appo. Skywalker is taking a route we cannot follow." Appo, Rex and the rest of the clones watch as Anakin continues to mercilessly slaughter what is left of the nightbrothers, until there is not a single nightbrother left on the surface...
Meanwhile, Cody, clone trooper Boil and the 212th sneak into the nightsister camp. Cody waits as Boil sets explosives around the nightsister camp. As they make to smash their way into Talzin's main building, several nightsisters come out to ambush them. Immediately, several 212th clones are taken out by bows and arrows. Cody yells "We can't hold 'em. Men, fall back NOW." Cody and several other 212th clones turn around and run. Cody waits as the several clones rush past him, but Cody notices Boil is missing. Cody heads back into the camp, and finds Boil on his knees, with the nightsisters dead. Cody calls "Boil?" and Boil replies "You need to leave, Cody. This is the only way." Cody asks "Boil. What are you talking about?" and Boil responds "I have to do this, sir. I need to be with Waxer, my time here is done." Boil raises his blaster and aims at one of the explosives, forcing Cody to shout "Boil, no." Boil turns and puches Cody away, and out of the nightsister camp. Boil raises his blaster again, and shoots the explosive, killing himself immediately. Inside the building, Talzin is buried dead underneath the wreckage. Cody and the 212th clones walk sadly away, intent on finding Obi-Wan Kenobi...
General Grievous punches Obi-Wan viciously in the face, forcing Obi-Wan to spit blood out of his mouth. Grievous says "Haha! You will die a painful death, one day!" and Obi-Wan retorts "One day, but not by your hand." With that, Obi-Wan re-ignites his lightsaber, and starts dueling Grievous again. Grievous kicks Obi_Wan, and flees. Obi-Wan mutters "Always running." Obi-Wan makes to move on, just as Cody and the 212th clones find him. Cody says "Are you alright, sir?" and Obi-Wan replies "Could be better. Where is Boil?" and Cody says "I'm sorry, sir. Boil is dead." Obi-Wan looks saddened by the death of another experienced clone, but Obi-Wan holds it in, and says "Let's move on. You never know what Anakin could be doing." Obi-Wan, Cody and the clones head onward. Meanwhile, remaining nightsisters look to take revenge on the clones. ARC trooper Wolffe says to Rex "Look Rex. Incoming speeders" and Rex replies "Round up the men. Get some barc's, we'll attack them head on." Wolffe, Rex and Appo, as well as several 501st clones, leap on a squad of barc speeder's. Rex and Appo take on the nightsisters from one side, while Wolffe attacks from the other side. While the clones deal with the nightsisters, Anakin Skywalker is force-choked from behind, before brutally being tossed against a hard tree, before having force-lightning used on him. A severely weakened Anakin looks up, to find Savage Opress standing above him. Savage says "Jedi" and Anakin replies "Oh, hello there." Savage ignites his double-bladed lightsaber, and says "Duel, and die." Savage immediately attacks Anakin, before the latter can ignite his lightsaber, but Anakin narrowly avoids the attack. Anakin ignites his lightsaber, and starts to duel with Savage, but Savage bashes Anakin with the hilt of his lightsaber, sending his lightsaber flying. The injured Anakin collapses against a tree, with Savage looming above him. Savage prepares to finish Anakin, but he is force-pushed aside, and Obi-Wan, Cody and the clones arrive. Obi-Wan says "You should be dead" and Anakin adds "We...will make sure you die now!" Savage attacks Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan uses the force to bring Anakin's lightsaber to him, and Obi-Wan begins attacking Savage with two lightsabers. Obi-Wan slices Savage's lightsaber in half, destroying Savage's blade. Savage turns and flees, jumping down hills to avoid Obi-Wan using the force on him...
Meanwhile, Rex, Wolffe and Appo have finished off the nightsisters. Obi-Wan says to Cody "Cody, reckon you can snipe that Sith scum?" and Cody says "I'll give it my best shot." Cody tries to get a sight on Savage, but turns to Obi-Wan and says "It's no good, sir. He's too fast, and I can't get a good sight or shot at him." Suddenly, out of nothing, a single shot rings out and with a perfect head-shot, Savage is sent flying, well dead. Obi-Wan looks at Cody, who shrugs. Obi-Wan looks across, to see Wolffe holding a sniper rifle, which is smoking from the blaster bolt that killed Savage Opress. Wolffe says "You did request him dead, didn't you, sir?" and Obi-Wan says "Yes, well. How did you know where to shoot him?" and Wolffe says "I've seen that armour before. Lightsabers don't affect it, which is why I aimed for his big head." Up in space, Grievous is talking to Dooku via hologram. Dooku says "Congratulations on a job well done, Grievous. The people of Dathomir are now devastated, and it will be a long time before the nightbrother and nightsister clans will prove a threat to us again." Grievous coldly nods his agreement...
Once the Republic is prepared to leave Dathomir, Obi-Wan walks up to Anakin and says "Rex has told me something interesting, Anakin. I hear you slaughtered all those nightbrothers, when I clearly told you to disarm them, and take them prisoner" and Anakin replies "It was easier to kill those savage's. The killing of people is all part of the war." Obi-Wan angrily says to Anakin "You are a Jedi, Skywalker. Not a merciless beast like Maul!" and Anakin says "Perhaps, sir. But there's always exceptions." Obi-Wan looks stunned at Anakin, and says "Since when have you called me "sir"?" and Anakin replies "Since when you called me "Skywalker"?" Anakin turns around, and leaving Obi-Wan standing there, Anakin marches into a Venator-class star destroyer, with an ugly expression on his face. Rex notices Anakin's expression, and Rex wonders whether Anakin truly cares about the people of the Clone Wars...
Next-time: "A stealth mission! The return of the stealth ops clone troopers, including Blackout & Spark! Ahsoka meets a Jedi her own age? See it all, in the upcoming "CIS Prototype Death Star" arc!"

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 134: Dathomir Decimated
Characters: Count Dooku, General Grievous, Battle Droids, Commando Droids, Talzin, Karis, Naa'leth, Nightsisters, Nightbrothers, Viscus, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, ARC Trooper Rex, Commander Appo, Commander Cody, Clone Trooper Boil, 212th Clones, 501st Clones, ARC Trooper Wolffe, Savage Opress.
Narration: "Dathomir is under a terrible crisis! Both the Separatists and Nightbrothers want revenge on the Nightsisters for different reasons! The Republic aims to bring peace to the planet, but in this crisis, will the enemy prove too powerful for the Republic forces?"
Inside the Nightsister camp, Mother Talzin is approached warily by several nightsisters, including Karis and Naa'leth. Naa'leth says to Talzin "We have a plan, mother. We want to attack the Separatists, and give them something to think about" and Talzin replies "This could prove dangerous to your lives, but if it is what you want to do for our people, then I will not stop you." Karis says "Thank you, mother. We will do what we can, or die for our people doing it." With those words, Karis, Naa'leth and the other nightsisters head off to confront the Separatists. Viscus meanwhile, struggles to keep his people under check. One nightbrother steps up to Viscus, and says to Viscus "I'm sorry, be we cannot accept your plan. Myself and several other warriors would like to side with the Separatists against the nightsisters" and Viscus replies "You can't. Grievous would kill you rather than aid you." The nightbrother tells Viscus curtly "That's what you think." The nightbrother and several others join him in walking off towards the Separatist lines. The nightbrother turns to Viscus one last time, and says "This is what we think." They continue heading on, while Viscus watches on in despair...
At the Republic position, Obi-Wan Kenobi is joined by Anakin Skywalker, who says "This is it. We can't wait any longer. All the other sides are ready to fight again" and Obi-Wan replies "Yes, I quite agree. Take the 501st and attack the nightbrothers. I will handle the nightsisters." Before Anakin can make a joke out of Obi-Wan's last line, Wolffe joins them and says "I'd like to assist Skywalker's attack, if you don't mind?" and Obi-Wan replies "Very well, Wolffe. We better move out." As the Republic forces move their seperate ways, the nightbrother's approach Grievous at the Separatist lines. The curt nightbrother clears his throat, and says to Grievous "I was, um- thinking. Maybe we could attack the nightsisters, um- together?". Grievous pretends to think about this for a moment, before saying "I have a better idea." With that, Grievous ignites a lightsaber and slashes the nightbrother down, and his commando droids shoot the other nightbrothers lifeless. Grievous says happily "That was fun! Now for the nightsister brats." As Grievous finishes, Karis, Naa'leth and the nightsisters appear, brandishing their weapons. The nightsisters bring up their bows and rain arrows upon the Separatist lines. Several droids are knocked off their feet, but Grievous successfully slices the arrows directed at him. Karis and Naa'leth lead a nightsister charge at Grievous, who swiftly ignites three more lightsabers, bringing all four out. Naa'leth attacks Grievous first, aiming a arrow for his head, but narrowly misses. Grievous grabs Naa'leth by the neck, giving Karis the chance to boot Grievous in his metal unmentionables. Grievous groans in pain, dropping Naa'leth. As Naa'leth prepares to boot Grievous too, a powerful force sends her, Karis and the other nightsisters flying. A mysterious figure with a hood stands among the trees. Before Grievous can ponder who it is, Karis and Naa'leth attack again. Grievous kicks Karis in the face, but Naa'leth draws a dagger and slices Grievous in the eye with it. Grievous growls angrily, and stabs Naa'leth through the heart. This fuels Karis's anger towards the war, and she throws herself in her fury at Grievous, drawing a sword and vibroblade. Karis swipes relentlessly at Grievous, who easily dodges the reckless attacks, before stabbing Karis too, before maneuvering around to stab her through the back too. Karis crumples, but with her dying breath, she says to Grievous "You may have killed me, Kaleesh. But trust me, you will not destroy our people." Grievous looks up to see the remaining nightsisters looking on with shocked faces. Grievous looks at his droids, and orders "Kill them." Grievous watches with no pity whatsoever as the nightsisters are brutally cut down. Grievous tries to catch his breath, but can't, as the mysterious figure with the hood approaches. The figure removes his hood. Grievous can't believe who he is looking at, and says "You?" and the figure replies "Me." Grievous stares in shock at Savage Opress, whom he, and the rest of the galaxy believed dead. Grievous says "I thought Maul had killed you?!" as he menacingly brandishes his four lightsabers, and points them directly at Savage. Savage replies "You thought wrong. What my brother Maul didn't know, and the Jedi, and anyone indeed before you now knew. My armour is impenetrable to lightsabers. That's how I survived." With that, Savage Opress ignites his double-bladed lightsaber, and attacks Grievous...
Elsewhere, Viscus leads his men back into the nightbrother village, as AT-TE and AT-AP walkers stomp toward the village. "Open fire!" orders Rex, and the walkers launch a massive assault on the village, blowing up many nightbrother homes. Anakin, Rex, Appo, Wolffe and the 501st rush the village, attacking the nightbrothers aside. Rex pauses his firing, to watch as Anakin storms Viscus, kicks Viscus in the stomach, and slices Viscus's head off from behind. Rex has no time to think about this though, as a building almost collapses on him, leaving Appo to pull Rex out of danger. Anakin starts placing explosives around various buildings in the village. Wolffe approaches Anakin and sates "Skywalker, we do not have orders to blow the village up. Never mind that, we did not have orders to kill the nightbrothers, just subdue them!" but Anakin retorts "Shut it, ARC- 3636. I'm the one in charge of this attack, and I'll be the one who decides what to do." Wolffe joins Rex and Appo. Rex seems to read Wolffe's mind, and says "I know what you are thinking. Something is definitly up with Skywalker." Rex, Wolffe and Appo watch from an elevated position as Anakin leaves the village, before blowing it up, killing any remaining stragglers inside. Meanwhile, Grievous and Savage Opress continue their ferocious duel, smashing their lightsaber blades against each other. Commando droiuds surround Savage, who kicks Grievous aside, and flees back into the trees. Grievous spots Obi-Wan and his clones heading for the nightsister village, and prepares to ambush them...
Grievous confronts Obi-Wan and the clones. Obi-Wan says to Cody "I'll handle this, Cody. Take the clones, and find another way in." Cody, Boil and the other 212th clones head a different way, as Obi-Wan and Grievous start dueling once again. Cody, Boil and the clones find a secret passageway. Cody says "Boil, bring that rocket launcher up here. Blow a entrance" and Boil replies "Yes, sir." Boil loads the rocket launcher, and blows a hole into the secret passageway. The clones climb into the secret passageway, wondering what they will find on the other side...

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 133: Planetary War
Characters: Count Dooku, General Grievous, Battle Droids, Commando Droids, Mother Talzin, Talia, Karis, Naa'leth, Nightsisters, Viscus, Nightbrothers, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, ARC Trooper Rex, Commander Appo, Commander Cody, Clone Trooper Boil, 212th Clones, 501st Clones, ARC Trooper Wolffe.
Narration: "Revenge on several sides! The Nightbrothers want revenge on the Nightsisters for taking Savage Opress away from their kin! However, the Separatists also want revenge on the Nightsisters, for Asajj Ventress's actions! Count Dooku plans to create a gigantic war on Dathomir, but what will happen in this soon to be terrible event!?"
The massive Separatist droid army stands ahead of Count Dooku and General Grievous. Dooku says to Grievous "You must start a decimating war on Dathomir. I want revenge on the planet's inhabitant's for tricking us" and Grievous replies "It shall be done, Count. We will leave no survivors." Dooku marches off, but turns to give the order to Grievous "Kill them all." Dooku walks off, and Grievous barks to his army "You heard the count. Get your weapons ready, and prepare for battle." Battle droids and commando droids march into Separatist landing craft's ready to leave Sullust for Dathomir. Once the droids, along with Dooku and Grievous are on board, the many Separatist ships head for Dathomir.
Unknown to the Separatists, there is also anger against the nightsisters on the planet too. Viscus steps in front of many nightbrother warriors, and gives a speech to his people, saying "It is time we stood up to the witches that rule over us. We must fight, and put the nightsisters in their rightful place. And, we must avenge our fallen brothers, Savage & Feral Opress. The time has come, to rid Dathomir, of the nightsister clan." The rest of the nightbrothers yell out in agreement, and get into a formation, with weapons such as spears and spikes prepped. As the nightbrothers move towards the nightsister village, they are spied upon by several nightsisters, including Talia. Talia signals, and they bring up their bows and open fire. Several nightbrothers are hit and killed immediately. The nightbrothers soon recover, with a strong leader in Viscus, who yells "Take 'em." Nightbrothers immediately rush the nightsisters cover, and it becomes a bitter struggle to stay alive. Talia calls "Buy me some time!" and she attempts to head back and tell Talzin what is happening, but Viscus spots her, and yells "Oh no you don't." Viscus doesn't have time to aim, and swiftly tosses his metal pike at Talia. Luckily for Viscus, it buries itself in the side of Talia's ribs, sending her into a tree, and down, mortally wounded. Viscus looms over Talia, and snarls "Tell me any information you have on the nightsister defense plans" but Talia replies "I*cough* refuse to tell you anything. I would sooner *cough* die, than give in to your demands." Viscus bends down, and puts his hand on the pike impaled in Talia's ribs. Viscus says "That can be arranged, you know." Talia gasps "I refuse." Viscus prepares to tweak the pike a little bit to give Talia excruciating pain, but before Viscus can torture Talia, a roar comes from behind him, and his fellow nightbrothers launch themselves at Talia. Viscus can only watch in horror as a number of pikes and spears are stabbed by his brothers into the wounded Talia. In the blink of an eye, Talia is mercilessly slaughtered. Viscus grumbles "We could have got some intel out of her" but one brother replies "Look, all we want is revenge like you said. We don't want any of this strategic planning garbage." Viscus glares angrily after his brothers, feeling a lack of planning could lead to their downfall...
The Separatists make their arrival just then, landing their landing craft on the surface of Dathomir. Grievous steps out first, immediately stops and says "What the-?" as the nightsister and nightbrother sides recklessly charge each other, with plenty of killing and screaming. Dooku joins Grievous, and says "This is a most unexpected turn. But perhaps we can turn this to our advantage." Grievous asks "How?" and Dooku replies "While they are distracted, we can eliminate Talzin." As Grievous prepares to move his troops out, more ships land on the surface nearby. Dooku says "The Republic is here." Republic tanks move out of the venator-class star destroyers, and many clone troopers walk onto the surface, followed by Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. "There's a terrible conflict here, all right" says Anakin. Obi-Wan replies "Indeed. This is definitly a battle we should not be involved in" and Anakin replies "This is where the fun begins." Cody steps up to Obi-Wan and Anakin, and says "Generals. It seems both the Separatists and nightbrothers want revenge on the nightsisters, they could well join each other" and Anakin says "We cannot allow that. I'll lead an attack on the Separatists now." As Anakin and the 501st move out, Cody joins clone trooper Boil by the AT-RT's. Cody asks "You okay, Boil?" and Boil replies "Sir, yes sir. Just thinking about Waxer, that's all. He was a great brother, and an even greater friend." Cody nods in agreement, but as Cody prepares to move on, he notices something different about Boil's helmet, and asks "What is this, Boil?" and Boil replies "I had Waxer's drawing of Numa imprinted from his helmet to mine, in order to remember both Numa and Waxer. I know it's against orders, but I felt it was something I had to do." Cody takes off his helmet, sighs, and says "It is against orders, but I won't tell, as I know why you did it, and how much Waxer meant to you." Cody and Boil join Obi-Wan, as they watch the major battle between the nightbrothers and nightsisters...
Grievous and Dooku move off to an observation post to overwatch the battle. Squads of battle droids head for the major conflict between the nightbrothers and nightsisters. At the sound of a crack, one battle droid says "What was that?" as the droids stop. There is silence for a moment, before Anakin jumps in front of the crowd of droids, and ignites his lightsaber. Anakin swings at the droids, slicing several of them apart. Before the droids can react, they come under attack as Appo, Rex, Wolffe and the 501st join Anakin in taking out the droids. The attack is so swift, the droids don't even manage to kill any clones. At the nightsister camp, Mother Talzin is joined by Karis and Naa'leth in overlooking the fighting. Karis says to Talzin "The nightbrothers have retreated for now, but they'll be back." Talzin says "Yes, they shall. It is only a matter of time, not debate, until they come here." Karis and Naa'leth turn around to rally up a nightsister army, while Talzin watches the other forces from above...
Narration: "Revenge on several sides! The Nightbrothers want revenge on the Nightsisters for taking Savage Opress away from their kin! However, the Separatists also want revenge on the Nightsisters, for Asajj Ventress's actions! Count Dooku plans to create a gigantic war on Dathomir, but what will happen in this soon to be terrible event!?"

Dooku marches off, but turns to give the order to Grievous "Kill them all." Dooku walks off, and Grievous barks to his army "You heard the count. Get your weapons ready, and prepare for battle."

"There's a terrible conflict here, all right" says Anakin. Obi-Wan replies "Indeed. This is definitly a battle we should not be involved in" and Anakin replies "This is where the fun begins." Cody steps up to Obi-Wan and Anakin, and says "Generals. It seems both the Separatists and nightbrothers want revenge on the nightsisters, they could well join each other" and Anakin says "We cannot allow that. I'll lead an attack on the Separatists now." As Anakin and the 501st move out, Cody joins clone trooper Boil by the AT-RT's. Cody asks "You okay, Boil?" and Boil replies "Sir, yes sir. Just thinking about Waxer, that's all. He was a great brother, and an even greater friend." Cody nods in agreement, but as Cody prepares to move on, he notices something different about Boil's helmet, and asks "What is this, Boil?" and Boil replies "I had Waxer's drawing of Numa imprinted from his helmet to mine, in order to remember both Numa and Waxer. I know it's against orders, but I felt it was something I had to do." Cody takes off his helmet, sighs, and says "It is against orders, but I won't tell, as I know why you did it, and how much Waxer meant to you." Cody and Boil join Obi-Wan, as they watch the major battle between the nightbrothers and nightsisters...
Grievous and Dooku move off to an observation post to overwatch the battle. Squads of battle droids head for the major conflict between the nightbrothers and nightsisters. At the sound of a crack, one battle droid says "What was that?" as the droids stop. There is silence for a moment, before Anakin jumps in front of the crowd of droids, and ignites his lightsaber. Anakin swings at the droids, slicing several of them apart. Before the droids can react, they come under attack as Appo, Rex, Wolffe and the 501st join Anakin in taking out the droids. The attack is so swift, the droids don't even manage to kill any clones. At the nightsister camp, Mother Talzin is joined by Karis and Naa'leth in overlooking the fighting. Karis says to Talzin "The nightbrothers have retreated for now, but they'll be back." Talzin says "Yes, they shall. It is only a matter of time, not debate, until they come here." Karis and Naa'leth turn around to rally up a nightsister army, while Talzin watches the other forces from above...

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 132: Promotions
Characters: Lama Su, Bric, Plo Koon, Commander Wolffe, Wolfpack Troopers, Kendal Ozzel, ARC Trooper Rex, Commander Appo, ARC Trooper Fives, Anakin Skywalker, Roblio Darte, General Grievous, Aqua Droids, Corporal Comet, Shaak Ti, Count Dooku, Darth Sidious.
Narration: "Kaleesh peril! General Grievous, the Separatist leader that strikes fear across the galaxy, is close to taking the Clone homeworld of Kamino! With the Republic desperate to stop him, will Grievous prevail?"
Underwater on Kamino, aqua droids race for the surface to join the battle above water. However, several blaster bolts head their way and distract the droids. From the other side, several aqua droids are sliced up by Shaak Ti. "Hit 'em!" yells Fives, and he tosses a thermal detonator which blows up the aqua droids, creating lots of bubbles. As a trident drill zooms past, Shaak Ti says "We need to get on that" and she grabs onto the trident drill. Appo says "This may not be such a good plan" and Rex replies "Come on, Appo. Let's get moving." Rex, Appo, Fives, Wolffe and Comet grab onto the trident drill, which jumps onto a Tipoca City platform. With the trident drill landed, Comet plants explosives over the trident drill. With the explosives planted, Comet joins the others well clear from the trident drill. The trident drill begins to unload aqua droids, just as Rex detonates the explosives, blowing up the trident drill and decimating the aqua droids. Elsewhere, Plo Koon stands alone outside a hangar with Republic gunship's and V-wing's. A noise of large feet sounds above Plo, and Plo ignites his lightsaber, just as General Grievous jumps down in front of him. Grievous says "Well hello. Welcome to your doom, Jedi!" and Plo retorts "You will not kill me, Grievous." Grievous ignites his four lightsabers and charges at Plo Koon, sending Plo flying. Grievous knocks the lightsaber away from Plo's clutches, and into the cockpit of a prone V-wing. Plo hops into the V-wing, but before he can fly away, Grievous grabs on and the V-wing smashes into a wall, blowing it up, sending Plo and Grievous flying in opposite directions. Both wounded, they draw their lightsabers, and attack...
Lama Su turns around, and to his horror finds aqua droids attacking the analysis center. Several Wolfpack clones defending it are killed. With only Lama Su left standing, the aqua droids easily shoot him down. Oblivious to Lama Su's death, Anakin Skywalker, Roblio Darte and Bric come under fire from aqua droids in the hallways and try to repel them. Anakin and Darte slice up several droids, while Bric shoots down droids with his pistol. Shaak Ti comes across Plo Koon and Grievous dueling. Shaak Ti force pushes Grievous, and she draws her lightsaber. Shaak Ti and Plo Koon join together to duel Grievous, who struggles to block their attacks. Rex, Fives, Appo, Wolffe and Comet help Anakin, Darte and Bric. Rex says to Darte "We can handle this, sir. You go help master's Ti and Plo." Darte races off, as Anakin and the clones handle the droids. Grievous, with a lucky swipe of his feet, tears Plo Koon's breathing mask off. As Plo struggles for breath, Shaak Ti struggles to hold Grievous off. As Grievous attacks, Darte arrives and slices off to of Grievous's arms. Grievous is forced to flee, escaping in a trident drill. Darte helps Plo get his breathing mask back on, and Plo gasps "That... was not good." In the hallways, Anakin, Wolffe, Comet, Rex, Appo and Fives finish the last of the aqua droids...
ARC trooper Rex goes to Plo Koon, having been summoned by Plo Koon, Rex says to Plo "You asked for me, sir?" Plo beckons Rex forward, and whispers something in Rex's ear. As Rex pulls away, Plo adds "Tell them." Rex joins the clones in the hangar. Wolffe asks "What did Master Plo want, sir?" and Rex replies "You are not going to believe this, Wolffe." Wolffe asks "What is it? A demotion?", causing Rex to chuckle and say "No. Quite the opposite. You, ARC-3636, are now officially an ARC trooper." Wolffe asks "You are not serious? Who is going to be the Wolfpack commander?" Rex turns to Comet and says "Commander Comet, think you are up for the challenge?" and Comet replies "You can count on it, Rex." Wolffe says to Comet "You will do a great job, Comet." Nearby, Ozzel is grumbling, saying "Come on! Why do those expendable men get a promotion, and I don't." Roblio Darte, who is also neaby, snaps at Ozzel "Why should you get a promotion? These men showed courage and loyalty, while you just cowered as good men died for you! Your atrocious plan for the underwater mission would have failed, if not for the brave actions of ARC-3636 and the other clones, we would have lost." Ozzel mumbles his innocence, but even he isn't fooled by his poor tactical decisions. The news of Wolffe's promotion has gone around all the clones, and the Wolfpack yell out for their past commander "All hail ARC-3636! Long live ARC trooper Wolffe."
Unknown to everyone except the two of them, Count Dooku and Darth Sidious hold a urgent meeting. Sidious says "This battle was all wrong. Grievous should not have acted without orders" and Dooku replies "I know, my lord. Apparently, his actions were to win favour back from us." Sidious says "Still. Should General Grievous fail to win another battle, I am afraid he will need to be disposed of. You would be better off planning Grievous's death immediately" and Dooku replies "Yes, my lord." Once Sidious's hologram has faded, Dooku mutters to himself "I will be better off planning Sidious's death rather than Grievous's death. He has also been the reason for the death of one of my accomplices, not another. And the fact is, the Sith usually end up betraying one another anyway." Dooku leans forward in his chair and begins to think, about the future of this war...
Next-up: "A four way conflict on Dathomir? This should get interesting! The Nightsisters and Nightbrothers return for battle! How does Boil feel about Waxer's death? Find out in the "Battle of Dathomir" arc!"

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 131: Main City
Characters: Lama Su, Bric, El-Les, Plo Koon, Commander Wolffe, Corporal Comet, Wolfpack Troopers, Kendal Ozzel, ARC Trooper Rex, Commander Appo, ARC Trooper Fives, Anakin Skywalker, Roblio Darte, ARC Trooper Drowne, General Grievous, Aqua Droids, Shaak Ti.
Narration: "Kamino under threat! General Grievous, looking to seek favour from Count Dooku alone, lays siege to Kamino! However now that the Republic has regrouped, Grievous has a tough task on his hands!"
Fives walks into a Clone barrack, where he finds Appo, Rex and several clones slipping into scuba gear. Rex points Fives to his gear. As Fives pulls his scuba gear on, he says "This is really not my kind of gear" and Rex replies "Nor mine, Fives. But you heard Wolffe, we are the best men here, we must take this mission." Wolffe and Comet join them. Wolffe says "We know what we have to do. Not just defeat the clankers, but show Ozzel we clones are better than cowards like him." As Wolffe moves away, Appo whispers to Fives and Rex "Wolffe definitly wants to put Ozzel in his place." As they talk, Shaak Ti walks in on them, already in her scuba gear. Shaak Ti says "Now that you are all ready. Let us begin." Once Shaak Ti walks out and the clones follow her, Comet jokes to Wolffe "I thought the best men were being chosen for the mission, sir?" and Wolffe replies "General Ti was the only available Jedi, masters Plo and Skywalker are busy with the main invasion." Shaak Ti is joined at a platform by the clones, and she says "Follow me, clones." Shaak Ti jumps over the platform and straight into the water. "This is it" says Rex, and he jumps next. Fives, Appo, Wolffe and Comet swiftly jump too, and they join Shaak Ti underwater. As they prepare to make a plan, trident drills swoop towards them and attack. Shaak Ti lands on a trident drill, and breaks her way through with the lightsaber, and destroying it from the inside. Appo, Rex, Fives, Wolffe and Comet open fire on more trident drills, but the majority of the trident drills begin to break through. The trident drills begin to leap onto the Tipoca City platforms, and unload aqua droids. Grievous climbs out of a trident drill, and he is confronted by ARC trooper Drowne and several clones. "Hold it right there, clanker!" yells Drowne, and Grievous retorts "I am a cyborg." Grievous ignites all four of his lightsabers and attacks. One Clone charges Grievous, but the Clone is casually sliced across the chest and across the platform. Drowne pulls out two DC-17 blaster pistols and attacks, but Grievous grabs Drowne by the helmet with his foot, crushing the helmet, before knocking the pistols out of Drowne's hands. As Drowne tries to catch his breath, Grievous gives Drowne a big kick, sending Drowne over the platform and into the water, as Grievous finishes the clones, before moving on...
As Shaak Ti, Rex, Appo, Fives, Wolffe and Comet look for droids underwater, Wolffe spots a body and calls "I've spotted something." They all crowd around the body, and Wolffe says "It's Drowne. He is dead." Fives adds "Based on the marks. Grievous probably killed him." Shaak Ti says "We must make sure his death will not be in vain." On the platforms, Anakin Skywalker and Plo Koon watch through binoculars as more aqua droids advance on the Clone positions. Plo says "The droids are advancing. It's time to launch the attack." Anakin says "Indeed. We must not allow the Separatists to get at Lama Su." Anakin and Plo Koon ignite their lightsabers, and join the clones defending the factories. Aqua droids open fire on the clones, Anakin and Plo. Anakin and Plo Koon deflect blaster bolts right back at the aqua droids, while clones return fire. The aqua droids retreat for now. Inside the factories, Kendal Ozzel says to Roblio Darte "This is mad. The battle is going badly. We must leave this system." Darte says "Is all you ever do whine and complain? Zip it, we don't need no chatter from you" and Bric adds "Cut out the uneccessary chatter, Ozzel." As Bric turns away from Ozzel, El-Les whispers to him "I thought you didn't care for clones, Bric?" and Bric replies "That Domino squad changed me, there can be good clones around. We need to be able to give them a chance to show whether they are good or not." Before El-Les can reply, General Grievous bursts through a neaby doorway, killing two Clone sentry's. Roblio Darte ignites his lightsaber, while El-Les and Bric draw pistols. As for Ozzel, he chooses to cower behind them. Grievous attacks Darte first, but Darte blocks the attack. Grievous kicks Darte into El-Les. As they tumble, Grievous slices down and strikes El-Les dead, leaving the Arconan bounty hunter down by his feet. Grievous grabs Darte by the throat and chokes him, forcing Bric to bring his pistol up and shoot Grievous in the eye. Grievous groans in pain, relieving his grasp of Darte. Roblio Darte takes his chance, force pushing Grievous far away with major power. Roblio Darte looks at the dead body of El-Les, and says "Bounty hunters. They're one in a million." Bric, who had been loading his pistol, says "And yet it was a bounty hunter that saved you, Jedi." Darte says "Grievous was distracted, it was a shot you couldn't miss." As Darte walks off, Bric furiously follows him, leaving Ozzel to tremble at the sound of firefighting around...

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 130: Kamino Bombarded
Characters: Lama Su, Bric, El-Les, Clone Cadets, Plo Koon, Commander Wolffe, Corporal Comet, Wolfpack Troopers, Scuba Clones, Kendal Ozzel, Anakin Skywalker, Commander Appo, ARC Trooper Rex, ARC Trooper Fives, Roblio Darte, ARC Trooper Drowne, General Grievous, Aqua Droids, Shaak Ti.
Narration: "Grievous plots! Having already failed to take Kamino, and having suffered many losses since, General Grievous plans to win back favour by capturing Kamino by his own hands!"
General Grievous says to his aqua droids "Prepare for plan A. Let's get those landing craft prepared." As the trident drills lie underwater on Kamino. In Tipoca City, a squad of young clone cadets is going through a tough training excercise, when Shaak Ti's voice booms out and says "Attention, everyone! This is an urgent announcement. The Separatists are here, we must cut short this excercise. Get yourselves to the barracks." As the disgruntled cadets head for the barracks, Shaak Ti walks down a hallway, followed by Bric and El-Les, El-Les says "We are in trouble, what do we do?" and Bric says "Trust El-Les to worry about a mission that requires brave men." Shaak Ti interrupts their argument, and says "El-Les is a bounty hunter too, Bric. As for what we do, I have contacted Master Skywalker. His forces will be here soon." As Shaak Ti finishes, a large rumbling sound echo's, and Shaak Ti says "They are here." El-Les and Bric aren't so sure though, and a giant drill pummels into the hallway. Around Tipoca City, the same thing happens to other parts of the city, aqua droids are able to kill clone cadets without weapons, who are forced to flee to the armoury. Kamino is under heavy threat, and the Separatists have caught the Republic out...
General Grievous steps out of the trident drill in front of Shaak Ti, El-Les and Bric, and says "Hello there." Shaak Ti ignites her lightsaber, as Bric and El-Les draw pistols. Grievous draws out two lightsabers, and attacks. Shaak Ti holds off Grievous long enough, and a big explosion hits the Kamino waters. Republic gunship's race to Tipoca City, and begin unloading forces. With Grievous distracted, Shaak Ti force pushes Grievous back into his trident drill, as Shaak Ti, Bric and El-Les flee. Grievous growls and starts to chase after them, but decides against it and heads another way. Aqua droids pour out of trident drills, but the Republic is ready for them, ARC trooper Drowne leading a Clone counter-attack against the droids. "Push them back so the gunship's can land!" yells Drowne, as he smashes up a aqua droid. The doors to a gunship open, and Anakin Skywalker force jumps onto the platform, slicing up a couple of droids that were advancing on Drowne. Rex, Appo and Fives use jetpacks to join Anakin. Fives tosses a thermal detonator into a squad of aqua droids, blowing them over the platform and into the water. Elsewhere, a gunship lands on another platform. Plo Koon, Wolffe, Comet and the Wolfpack charge into the facilities, and attack aqua droids already inside. With one squad of aqua droids defeated, they are joined by Kendal Ozzel and Roblio Darte. Ozzel barks out orders to anyone listening, saying "Round up all the troopers, send them into the waters. Let the clones sacrifice themselves against Grievous, these men are expendable after all." When Ozzel finishes, he finds himself smashed against the wall, with someone holding him by the throat, and a hard pistol pressed against his head. Commander Wolffe had reacted angrily to Ozzel's orders, and decided to take action. Wolffe pulls his helmet off, and yells angrily into Ozzel's face, saying "Us clones are not expendable. We are loyal soldiers, we follow orders, but we will not follow orders from someone who does not know what they are doing, we will follow orders from Plo Koon, any Jedi, not YOU! I haven't forgotten how you cost us the lives of MANY good men on Khorm. You will not be the death of any more of my men. We will not do as you say. After what you've done to my legion, I would rather die than follow your orders." Ozzel looks downright frigtened, and Wolffe is sorely tempted to execute the trembling officer on the spot, but knows he can't in front of Plo Koon, Roblio Darte and his men. Wolffe let's go of Ozzel, and puts his pistol away. Roblio Darte says to Wolffe and Ozzel "You two need to put past differences aside, and help win this battle. Ozzel is correct, we need to send some clones down there. Some will be doomed, but we must do it." Wolffe is aghast at this, and walks off angrily, joined by Comet. Wolffe says to Comet "Make sure we only send our best men down. Any less and we could have some very needless deaths." Comet says "Yes, sir." Comet runs off to look for Rex, Fives and Appo. Lama Su, Shaak Ti, Bric and El-Les join Roblio Darte in preparing a plan. Wolffe looks down into the waters from a platform, knowing of how suicide this mission could be...

Aqua droids pour out of trident drills, but the Republic is ready for them, ARC trooper Drowne leading a Clone counter-attack against the droids. "Push them back so the gunship's can land!" yells Drowne, as he smashes up a aqua droid. The doors to a gunship open, and Anakin Skywalker force jumps onto the platform, slicing up a couple of droids that were advancing on Drowne. Rex, Appo and Fives use jetpacks to join Anakin. Fives tosses a thermal detonator into a squad of aqua droids, blowing them over the platform and into the water. Elsewhere, a gunship lands on another platform. Plo Koon, Wolffe, Comet and the Wolfpack charge into the facilities, and attack aqua droids already inside. With one squad of aqua droids defeated, they are joined by Kendal Ozzel and Roblio Darte. Ozzel barks out orders to anyone listening, saying "Round up all the troopers, send them into the waters. Let the clones sacrifice themselves against Grievous, these men are expendable after all." When Ozzel finishes, he finds himself smashed against the wall, with someone holding him by the throat, and a hard pistol pressed against his head. Commander Wolffe had reacted angrily to Ozzel's orders, and decided to take action. Wolffe pulls his helmet off, and yells angrily into Ozzel's face, saying "Us clones are not expendable. We are loyal soldiers, we follow orders, but we will not follow orders from someone who does not know what they are doing, we will follow orders from Plo Koon, any Jedi, not YOU! I haven't forgotten how you cost us the lives of MANY good men on Khorm. You will not be the death of any more of my men. We will not do as you say. After what you've done to my legion, I would rather die than follow your orders." Ozzel looks downright frigtened, and Wolffe is sorely tempted to execute the trembling officer on the spot, but knows he can't in front of Plo Koon, Roblio Darte and his men. Wolffe let's go of Ozzel, and puts his pistol away. Roblio Darte says to Wolffe and Ozzel "You two need to put past differences aside, and help win this battle. Ozzel is correct, we need to send some clones down there. Some will be doomed, but we must do it." Wolffe is aghast at this, and walks off angrily, joined by Comet. Wolffe says to Comet "Make sure we only send our best men down. Any less and we could have some very needless deaths." Comet says "Yes, sir." Comet runs off to look for Rex, Fives and Appo. Lama Su, Shaak Ti, Bric and El-Les join Roblio Darte in preparing a plan. Wolffe looks down into the waters from a platform, knowing of how suicide this mission could be...

My Clone Wars Stories Episode 129: Maridun Turmoil
Characters: Wag-Too, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Aayla Secura, Commander Bly, 327th Clones, Commander Appo, 501st Clones, Lurmen Villagers, Nuvo Vindi, Battle Droids, Super Battle Droids.
Narration: "Turmoil upon the planet Maridun! hAving just seen their leader, Tee-Watt-Kaa die, the Lurmen people of Maridun struggle to hold back the Separatists. To make matters worse, Nuvo Vindi prepares to kill everyone with his blue shadow virus..."
Commander Bly joins Anakin Skywalker and Aayla Secura by the AT-RT walkers. Aayla tells Bly "Hold them off while we are gone, Commander Bly. The village must remain intact" and Bly replies "Don't worry, master Secura. My men will handle our part of the job." Anakin and Aayla ride the AT-RT's away from the village. Bly watches them go, before going to round up some clones. Inside the labratory, Ahsoka Tano and Appo spot Nuvo Vindi as he heads towards the hangar. "We have to stop him!" says Appo, and Ahsoka replies "Let's do this." Ahsoka takes out her lightsabers, while Appo brings out his DC-15 blaster rifle, and they appear behind Nuvo Vindi. Vindi says "I've been expecting you. Droids, take them" and Vindi runs into the hangar, as five super battle droids appear in front of Ahsoka and Appo. "We have to get past 'em" Ahsoka tells Appo, and she attacks. Appo shoots a super battle droid several times, knocking it down, while Ahsoka easily slices up the rest. The hangar doors start to close, but Appo holds them open long enough for Ahsoka to run in. Appo let's go of the doors, and joins Ahsoka inside the hangar. Nuvo Vindi takes out a blue shadow virus container and says "If this spills, you both, along with the planet, will die. HAHA!"...
"Here they come, Get ready" Bly whispers to several 327th clones, as Droid forces walk by their cover. "Now!" Bly shouts, and they rise from the cover, and shoot at the droids. Battle droids crumple, and fall. Once all the droids are dealt with, Bly says "It's up to the Jedi now." At the village, Lurmen villagers tie up attacking droids, allowing the 501st clones to easily take care of the downed droids. With the droids turned away from the village, all the village forces, including Wag-Too, head for the labratory. Back in the labratory, Ahsoka and Appo scaramble up the platform and confront Nuvo Vindi. As Vindi prepares to chuck the blue shadow virus he is holding away, Appo charges into Vindi, sending them both over the platform. Ahsoka grabs the other container of blue shadow virus's, just as the bombs start ticking. "This isn't good" Ahsoka mumbles. Over the platform, Appo and Vindi fall towards the ground. Appo attempts to kick Vindi, who screams "Help MEEEE!" but Appo succeeds in punching Vindi in the stomach, grabs the virus and says "No, it's the virus I want." Vindi plummets to the ground, and dies upon impact. Appo lands on his feet however, just as the platform arrives beside him. Ahsoka hands the bombs to Appo and asks "Know anything about this?" and Appo replies "I did a bit of work on bomb-workings, I'll give it a shot." Within a few minutes, Appo succeeds in defusing the few bombs Vindi had prepared. Once Appo is done, Ahsoka says "I'm glad that ordeal is over" and Appo asks "Was it pretty bad on Naboo?" and Ahsoka tells Appo "It was more than pretty bad. I could never forget that moment. The blue shadow virus almost killed me on Naboo." Appo notes how Ahsoka looks downcast at the story, and doesn't pursue the subject...
Ahsoka and Appo place explosives all over the labratory, before heading outside. Anakin and Aayla arrive on their AT-RT's. Anakin tells Ahsoka "We've mopped up all the droids now. Just need to detonate this labratory." Bly hands Anakin the detonator, but as Anakin clicks the detonator, Wag-Too jumps into the labratory. "Wag-Too? NO!" shouts Ahsoka, and Wag-Too shouts back "I want to be with my father. bye!" and the labratory explodes, blowing up the labratory and killing Wag-Too. Ahsoka, Anakin and all the other Republic forces, as well as the Lurmen, look sad at this uneccessary death. The Republic leave in gunship's soon after...
Next-up: Another battle of Kamino? Commander Wolffe has anger issues? And, what's this about another ARC Trooper death? Ozzel is on the Clone Wars? Find it all revealed, in the "4th Battle of Kamino" arc!
