Chapter Two: Back In Action

[Kamino]

Two weeks have passed since my kidnapping and rescue. While my brother looked after my Padawan while on different missions, Master Ti brought me to Kamino knowing that I wouldn't stay within The Temple Walls. I watched as clones trained.

My transmission device beeped making me turn my attention from the clone troopers, I was currently with. Accepting the call, Anakin appeared.

"Hello brother." I greet, with a smile.

"I wish this call was just a normal check-in but Obi-Wan is arriving on Kamino. Prepare yourself for battle, sister cause Grievous is on his way." Ending the transmission, I leave the clones and head through the facility. Unclipping my lightsaber, I don't realise there is a clone in front of me and I bump into him. Losing my balance, I nearly fall but someone grabs me

"Easy there General." Glancing upwards, I see Fives and Echo. "I didn't know you were here."

"Master Ti wanted some assistance out here and since I was off duty, I agreed." The two boys nod and bring me along with them to wherever they were going. Echo and Fives glance at the younger clones and recall the times of their own training, making me smile.

"Hey Ninety Nine!" Echo calls out to a clone. The two soldiers walk ahead of me to greet him.

"Echo, Fives." He says joyfully.

"You actually remember us." Fives says not expecting to be remembered.

"I remember all my brothers." This was my new favourite clone. "Is Hevy here? Where's he?" The two explain what happened on The Rishi outpost and I remember going to the barracks to comfort the new men. It's how we became friends. The clone named Ninety Nine pulled out a medal and I realise that Hevy must've given it to him.

"Why have you returned to Kamino?" He asks changing the subject.

"We've received word of an impending attack here on Kamino." I explain to him and he instantly straightens out at my presence. "At ease soldier."

"How can I help?"

I stood beside Obi-Wan as we looked at a hologram of the planet. Grievous was trying very hard to get past the blockade. Anakin was leading an air strike and I happened to notice that the droid general was playing a risky game. Master Ti mentioned he was sacrificing his transports to protect his command ship.

While Anakin was talking to Obi-Wan, I noticed a lot of debris was falling from space. Somehow the debris was being pulled by the gravitational pull but there wasn't enough weight for the debris to enter Kamino's atmosphere.

"May I suggest going for a swim." I say gaining the attention of the Jedi Masters. Obi-Wan nods and we both leave the room.

We both get into a two seater submarine and drive through the oceans which surround the city. We both notice something out of the ordinary and drive closer for a better view. And it was just like I suspected. The falling debris wasn't debris. Aqua droids were assembling an assault craft. The battle upstairs was a distraction.

"Master, we've been spotted." The droids immediately latch onto our submarine and attempt to break through. One even shot at the window making a crack. The lights turned red and an alarm sounded.

"Follow my lead, Thea." He ejects us from the actual submarine so we were in a small pod but the droids weren't given up. He glances at me, "Are you ready?"

I nod and he opens the window. Water fills and we both ignite our sabers and each slice through a droid before swimming upwards. The aqua droids fired at us and I knew we weren't going to reach the top in time. I was struggling to hold my breath. Obi-Wan grabs my hand tightly before reaching for an aquatic creature swimming above. We were instantly pulled along and soon enough was about the water.
