| As the 212th Battalion begin post-battle operations, Commander Cody and Anakin Skywalker await contact from Obi-Wan Kenobi.
| |
|
Clone Trooper Pry: I don’t remember ’Battle Cleanup 101’ in basic training, do you?
Clone Trooper Fraz: General Skywalker issued the order to salvage whatever is left of the Droid Army for intelligence.
| |
|
Clone Trooper Wark: I say we melt them down…make dinnerware out of them. It would serve the entire Grand Army!
| |
|
Clone Pilot Ratchet: So that is the “great” Droid Commander OOM-12, huh?
Clone Trooper Zank: Nothing more than scrap now. But if he is carrying any recent transmissions in his database, he may yet be of use to us
| |
|
Clone Trooper Pry: Or maybe we should prop them up for target practice!
Anakin Skywalker: ………
| |
|
Never good with patience, Anakin’s mind begins to wander…
Watto: It don’t matter how long it takes! Wait here until the customer arrives. And make sure they pay in advance! No funny business……Wha? Wheres everyone goin’?
Anakin Skywalker: Something is coming this way.
| |
|
Jawa: Eeeecccchhhheeeeee!!!
Yakface: Raiders!!!
| |
|
Watto: Raiders?? Quick! Take cover! You’re no good to me if you can’t race!
Anakin Skywalker: Tusken Raiders?
| |
|
Tusken Raider: Rrrooaarrr . rrrroooaaarrrr!
Graga: (in Huttese) Nooo!!!
| |
|
Graga: Uugghh…
Tusken Raider: Rrrroooaaarrr . roooaar!
| |
|
Tusken Raider: Rrroooooaaaaaarr!!!
| |
|
| |
|
Jawa: EEE-CHEE-YYYIIII!!!
| |

Anakin Skywalker: ……sandpeople……
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: Stay with me, mom…
Shmi Skywalker: ……I…love…………….
| |
|
Tusken Raider: Rrrroooaaaarrr!!!
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: NNNOOOOOO!!!
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: ANIMALS!!!
Tusken Raider: Rrrroooaaaarrr!!!
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: I HATE YOU!!
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: I wasn’t strong enough to save you, Mom. But I promise……I won’t fail again.
| |
|
Padme Amidala: Annie, are you just going to sit here and let him die?? He’s your friend… your mentor…
Anakin Skywalker: He’s like my father……
| |
|
Commander Cody: General? General Skywalker?
| |
|
Anakin Skwalker: What is it, Commander?
Commander Cody: Still no word from General Kenobi.
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: He’s alive……I can feel his presence.
Commander Cody: We do have several reports of a speeder leaving the field of battle.
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: Dooku…
Commander Cody: And we’ve scoured the area, but can find no signs of the mysterious warrior.
| |
|
Central Command transmission on comlink: <bing bing> We have found the homing beacon of General Kenobi’s BARC speeder. It is coming from an area known as the Crystal Mines.
| |
|
Anakin Skywalker: Set course for the Crystal Mines!
Commander Cody: Yes, sir!
| |
|
Meanwhile, back at the Crystal Mines…
Count Dooku: I hope your saber skills have improved since our last meeting, Master Kenobi.
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You’ll soon find out!
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Ugh……
| |
|
Count Dooku: It’s a pity that the previous battle has weakened you. Otherwise, this contest might actually be challenging.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Perhaps now you understand the true power of the Force! The power that even Master Yoda fears!
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Yoda doesn’t fear you, Dooku……and neither do I!
| |
|
Count Dooku: You can say that……you may even believe that…
| |
|
Count Dooku: But I can feel you tiring……doubt entering your mind……fear of failing to end this War……
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You won’t break me the way you did Master Bulq.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
Count Dooku: Who said anything about “breaking” you…
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Ugghh…
| |
|
Count Dooku: Your attack lacks imagination, Master Kenobi. Your stance……off balance. No style at all.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Yet another sign of the continuing decay of the Jedi Order.
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: ……ugghhh……
| |
|
Count Dooku: Perhaps I was mistaken……a true Jedi would not be so easily defeated.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Disappointing to be sure……but not unexpected.
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You won’t kill Anakin so easily, Dooku.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Hmph……indeed……
| |
|
Count Dooku: However, I don’t plan to kill you, Master Kenobi.
| |
|
Count Dooku: You serve another purpose. You may proceed, Utapaun.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Wha???
| |
|
Obi-Wan Kenobi: UUGGGHHHH……
| |
|
Sagev: Die Je-edi!
| |
|
Count Dooku: STOP! You will soon get your revenge, Utapaun.
| |
|
Count Dooku: Prepare for Skywalker’s arrival.
Sagev: Yes, Count Dooku.
