As the Empire commenced it's assault on the Salvation, Blake fought her way through the Imperial boarding party in a desperate attempt to rescue Yang from Boba Fett. Soon enough, Blake was attacked by a swarm of Terror Droids. The Droids skittered around the room as Blake fought through onslaught of Terror Droids. Once they were cleared, Blake contacts Cal.

Blake: Cal, I've seen these Terror Droids before. Vader is developing them on Kamino. Warn your men! 

Cal(Communicator): Thanks for the heads up, Blake. I've got a lead on Boba Fett. He's taking Yang to the....

Suddenly, the communications were cut. Blake then boards an elevator that takes her to the lower levels of the Salvation. Blake soon fights her way through multiple swarms of Terror Droids. Soon enough, Blake makes her way to the Med Bay where she finds Yang lying on the floor unconscious.

Blake: Yang....

Without hesitation, Blake runs into the med bay to help Yang. Before she could get close, Blake was shot at by an unseen enemy. Blake was able to block the blaster shot with her Lightsabers. Blake then turns to see Boba Fett aiming his blaster at her.

Boba: Quite a mess you've made of the place. I assume you're hear for the woman?

Blake: Leave, bounty hunter. Whatever Vader is paying you, it's not worth your life. Walk away while you still have a chance. 

Boba: Tempting, but no dice, Belladonna. Vader's paying me a lot of credits to bring the woman to her. But since you're here, I might as well try to bring you in too.

Blake: You're making a terrible mistake, bounty hunter. 

As Blake readied her Lightsabers, Boba Fett begins shooting at her while using his jetpack to hover in the air. Blake deflects most of the blaster bolts and attempts to press the attack, but Boba Fett manages keep Blake at a distance. Boba then attempts to finish the fight by firing a rope dart at Blake and wrapping it around her. Blake unleashes a powerful Force Repulse to shatter the rope. She then grips Boba Fett and begins thrashing him around the room. Boba fires a wrist rocket at Blake, forcing Blake to release Boba and stop the rocket. Blake then throws the rocket to the ceiling. Boba then fires a volley of shots to push Blake back.

Boba: Not bad for a Clone. I can see why Vader wants you. 

Blake then unleashes a torrent of Force Lightning on Boba Fett. As the Lightning courses through Boba's body, his jetpack begins short circuiting, causing Boba to fly around the room. Eventually, Boba disables his jetpack just as Blake was about to lunge at him. Before she could get close, Boba uses his flamethrower to push Blake back. Seeing that fighting Blake was going to be a losing effort, Boba decided to cut his losses and escape. He grabs Yang and begins carrying her away.

Blake: You're not going anywhere! 

Suddenly, a swarm of Terror Droids ambush Blake. Blake was forced to fight her way through the swarm. Yang briefly regains consciousness to catch a glimpse of Blake. By the time Blake cleared the room of Terror Droids, Boba Fett head already sealed the room, trapping Blake inside the med bay. 

Blake: Cal, can you hear me?! I found the bounty hunter! He has Yang! Seal off the hanger bay! We can't let him get away!

Cal(Communicator): I can't! Something's keeping me from sealing the hanger bay! Those Terror Droids are swarming the Salvation! Communications are going in and out!

Blake: There has to be something we can do!

Cal(Communicator): I've done all I can do, but this attack is making it difficult to do anything.

Blake: I'm going after him! I'm not letting him take Blake to Vader!

Blake rushed through the corridors of the Salvation in a desperate chase to get to Boba. By the time she reached the hanger bay, she sees that the Salvation jumped out of Hyperspace. She watched as the Slave 1 takes off. 

Blake: NO! YANG!

Blake could only watch as Boba Fett takes Yang away. Knowing where Boba was taking her, Blake contacts Cal.

Blake: Cal....he got away. Send the order to attack or I will go without you!

Cal(Communicator): Already done. Cere and I told the Alliance that we have just this one chance to strike. The fleet is converging on Kamino. But you know this is a trap. You know Vader is trying to lure you back.

Blake: Yes, I know. But he won't be expecting an entire fleet. 

Cal(Communicator): My thoughts as well. Let's hope we're right about this. Otherwise it won't matter. Prepare for lightspeed. 

As the Salvation was about to jump into Hyperspace, Blake spots a large Terror Walker heading in the opposite direction. Blake chases after the Terror Walker until it reaches the Reactor Core. Just as it was about to attack the Reactor Core, Blake fires a torrent of Force Lightning at the Terror Walker, catching it's attention. As the Terror Walker set it's sights on Blake, a swarm of Terror Droids began skittering around Blake. The Terror Walker lets out a powerful wail as it powers up it's shields. Blake fires another torrent of Force Lightning, but it does nothing as it bounces off it's shields. 

Blake: I've got a bad feeling about this....

In that moment, Blake found herself face to face with the Terror Walker. Despite the near overwhelming force that Blake found herself facing, Blake would not relent in the face of this. Too much was at stake for her.
