Sapphire walks down the hallway when she heard a clank come from Tup's room. Nala-Se, who didn't notice Sapphire say "It came from this room."

Nala-se walks in and Sapphire walks up to the door to hear the conversation, one of the medical droids say "Hello, Doctor." Nala-se glares at him and says "What do you think you're doing?"

Sapphire then looks shocked when she sees Five's begging her to be quiet, she quickly looks around before signaling him to get out of the room, he nods and runs out of the room and too his original medical bay room.

Sapphire's gut was telling her to record the conversation so she pressed a button on her comm and the droid says "I was only following protocol. "Save the patient." Doctor, I have found something unusual in this scan. It appears to be a tumor. Perhaps you should take a look."

Sapphire let's out a small gasp the doctor says "You performed a second scan without my authorization!?" The droid raises it hands and says "As I stated, I was following my programming."

Nala-Se glares at the droid and says "Then you are like this clone, defective! You will be put on report for deactivation." The droid protests though and says "But the tumor...This tumor seems to be blocking neuro-impulses from communicating within the brain. We should scan the rest of the clones to see if this is a problem with their base genetic model or a mutation with the current models."

Nala-Se shakes her head and says "There is no tumor. Your scan is incorrect. This clone clearly has a virus that remains undetected, but I will find the cause once he's terminated."

Sapphire gasps and Nala-Se says "who's there" and before Sapphire even has a chance to run, Nala-Se pulls her into the room. Sapphire glares at Nala-Se and says "your a liar doctor, you rather kill an innocent life form then figure out the truth."

Nala-Se glares at Sapphire and says "You don't know anything padawan, and I will make sure it stays that way. Droid, gag her and lock her up."

The droids hesitates and says "but" the doctors snaps and says "Now!" The droid sighs before Nala-Se and the droid gets out a piece of cloth and before Sapphire has anytime to react, the droid stuffs the cloth into her mouth.

Sapphire was about to take it out and ignite her lightsaber but then the droid quickly takes it from her belt and grabs her arms and Nala-Se cuffs her hands before she shoves her into the closet and locking it.

Sapphire starts fighting against the restraints but that only made her cut her wrist a little so she stops, she started yells but it was muffled because of the gag.

The doctor ignores her though and warns the droid that she will destroy him if he tells anyone what they did before walking out, Sapphire slams against the door but it doesn't budge.

She then starts crying because she felt like the walls around her were closing in on her, she cries harder and hopes that Shakk will find her, eventually she falls asleep from exhaustion and shock.

Meanwhile with Shakk

Shakk was walking around the base looking for Sapphire, she hasn't seen her for quite sometimes and was starting to get a little worried. Alarms then start going off and her comm then beeps and the head doctor says "Master Jedi, status report?"

Shakk says "Scanners have picked up an intruder in section C-6, but we have no visual confirmation." Nala-Se says "It could be the enemy looking for our patient." Shakk nods and says "I'm on my way, oh, one more thing, have either of you seen my padawan?"

The head doctor shakes his head but Nala-Se stays quiet, Shakk glares at her and says "Nala-Se, do u know where my padawan is?" Nala-Se shakes her head and says "No Master Ti, I do not."

Shall glares at her before she hangs up,

Shakk then walks into the command post and says "I want a report." One of the clones says "It appears to be a false alarm, triggered from the medical bay." Shakk looks down and says "Medical bay? It's Fives! Come on!"

She and the clones then start running to the medical bay and they see Nala-Se and Fives holding onto some kind of case, Shakk says "Stand down, Trooper."

Fives says "General. I have evidence, it's right here!" Tup then starts waking up and whispers, I'm free. The mission... Free...The mission... Free. The mission..."

Shakk, the clones, and Fives go closer to him and Shakk says "What is he saying?" Fives moves closer to Tup and says "Brother, what mission?"

Tup whispers, "You... You know the one. The mission, the one in our dreams, that never ends. The one in our dreams...
Oh, Brother, this is the end. Forget the mission. Oh, the nightmare... I'm free."

The heart monitor then flatlines and Fives says "No. No. I thought I saved him." Fives hands his head in grief and Shakk and the clones lead him out of the room.

Shakk Ti and Nala-Se then call the Chancellor and Shakk says "Sir, the clone CT-5385 has died." Palpatine puts a hand to her heart and says "Such a tragedy."

Shakk nods and says "I recommend we do tests on this tumor at the Jedi Temple, to see if it's the cause of the problem." Palpatine says "Even better, have the tumor sent to the Grand Republic Medical Facility, here on Coruscant."

Shakk protests though an says "The Jedi Council requested the clone..." Nala-Se interrupts her though and says "I think the Chancellor is correct. The Grand Medical Facility is state-of-the-art. If we are to find an answer to this puzzle, we will find it there."

Palpatine nods and says "We are in agreement then?" Shakk sighs and says "Yes, sir" before hanging up.
