After their stop on Tython, Blake and Cal travelled to Yang's location. The Stinger Mantis soon arrived at Nordra where a EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate was stationed. As the Stinger Mantis approached the battle cruiser, two X-Wings flew by the Stinger Mantis's sides. Blake opens up communications.
X-Wing Pilot(Intercom): Stinger Mantis, pleas transmit landing codes.
Cal: This is General Cal Kestis requesting to board the Salvation. Authorization Talus Haroon 10-11-38.
As Cal transmits the landing codes to X-Wing pilots, a moment of silence was heard.
X-Wing Pilot(Intercom): Code checks out. Good to have you back, General. Prepare for docking.
As the Stinger Mantis was given permission to dock the Salvation, Blake looks upon the Rebel Cruiser with concern.
Blake: There's no sign of attack.
Cal: Be on your guard. A powerful glimpse of the future like you experienced is rarely wrong. If Master Tapal taught me anything is that we should always be mindful of the future.
Blake took note of Cal's words as the Stinger Mantis docks on board the Salvation. As the two exit the Stinger Mantis, they were greeted by a happy BD-1 who jumped on Cal.
Cal: It's good to see you too, BD. Sorry I was gone for awhile. Ran into some....trouble.
As Cal says this, BD-1 glances over Blake. Blake remembers BD-1 in her past life as a happy and excitable Droid. Cal then led Blake through the corridors of the Salvation. As they walked through the corridors of the Salvation, they boarded a rapid cargo tram which would take them towards the Salvation bridge. Cal could sense Blake's uneasiness.
Cal: You're nervous.
Blake: I'm worried about Yang, Cal.
Cal: Even if something happens, Yang can take care of herself. You'd be surprised at how much she's changed since the last time she saw you.
Blake said nothing as memories of her time with Yang began to flood her mind. The vision she saw on Tython deeply worried her.
Cal: The Alliance Leadership can't agree on our best move. We don't have the firepower to take out a meaningful target, but no one wants to risk lives making small hit and run attacks either. Yang keeps pushing them to do something, anything, even if it's only a symbolic victory.
Blake: Have....have you told her I'm with you?
Cal paused for a moment as the cargo tram picked up speed.
Cal: No. Better that she sees you first, knows that you're really back.
Blake: You still don't believe I'm a Clone, do you?
Cal: I don't know. But I'm beginning to think that it doesn't matter. Clone or not, you're back. You're Blake Belladonna. Deny it all you want, the Force says otherwise.
Blake smiled as her cat ears point up as she pulls a cylinder out of her pocket. She then hands it to Cal.
Cal: An encrypted code cylinder?
Blake: Nav coordinates and schematics for the secret cloning facilities on Kamino. It's everything the Alliance needs to launch a successful assault.
Cal: Even with this information, we still need your help, Blake. How about it, Blake? Like old times?
Suddenly, an explosion was heard. The cargo tram suddenly ground to a halt as the ship was attacked.
Cal: We have to reach the bridge!
As Blake and Cal drew their Lightsabers, Yang's voice was heard on the intercom.
Yang(Intercom): All hands, we've lost power to several areas of the ship.....
Blake: Yang! Damn it! I knew this was going to happen! We should have warned her!
Cal: We can still save her, let's go!
With that, Blake and Cal began running for the bridge. As they rushed to the bridge, explosions rocked the Salvation. When they reached the door leading to the bridge was sealed shut. Without hesitation, Blake grips the door with the Force and forces it open. Once the door was forced open, Blake and Cal rushed to the bridge. Reaching the bridge, they found it in shambles, most of the personnel dead and Yang missing. As Blake and Yang reached the bridge, they heard moaning in the distance. Blake turned around and saw a wounded Cere. Upon seeing Blake, Cere and Merrin was shocked.
Cere: I...I sensed a familiar presence in the Force. It was you....
Blake: Where's Yang? What happened?
Cere: I...I don't know. It all happened so fast. I....I sensed a disturbance in the Force. But before I could react, the bridge was attacked. I...I tried to stop them but....
Without hesitation, Cal has BD-1 toss him a Stimpack. He then injects the Stimpack onto Cere.
Cere: The Imperials....they...they must've taken her towards deck seven.
As Cere says this, Blake and Cal rush over to the holoterminal where they accessed the Salvation's security footage. They soon saw Boba Fett escorting Yang through the corridors of the Salvation.
Blake: No....
Cal: Boba Fett....that's not good. Looks like he's taking Yang to the hanger bay. Communications are down so we can't send a squad up to the hanger bay.
Blake: I'm going after them!
Cal: It could be a trap.
Blake: I know, but I don't care! I won't let that bounty hunter take Yang to Vader!
Cal: I'll stay on the bridge to try and coordinate the troops. With hope, we'll beat them back.
With that, Blake sets out on her quest to rescue Yang from Boba Fett. In that moment, the Salvation was under attack from Imperial forces led by Boba Fett. Blake knew that this attack was meant to capture Yang in an attempt to lure her back to Vader. But it didn't matter to Blake. All that mattered was recuing Yang.
