Star Wars Rebels 3

Chapter 2: Steps into Shadows Part 2

The Phantom flew through the thick cloud, the wind was picking up, and the crew inside held on tight. "Hurry! We're losing ships." Ezra orders as he was now getting desperate.

Sabine just frowns, "Well, Lieutenant, what's your plan to get 'em out of there?" she questions him "Here's what we're going to do--" he starts, "Look out!" Rex calls out.

A probe droid came out of nowhere, Sabine quickly Banks to the right, trying to dodge. The ship gazes at the droid and vanishes back into the clouds. "What was that?" Sabine asks. "Oh, right, right. That is probably the dismantler droid." Hando points out.

Zeb frowns to himself, "Forgot that Terba said there might be some guarding the station." Hando admits, "When were you gonna share that information?" Lasat questions him. "Well, of course, I just did." Hando answers.

The Phantom flew right for the station as the dismantler droids were right on their tail. Then one latches onto the ship. "Chop, get it!" Sabine calls out. Chopper grunts as he turns his head, looking at the droid that was ten times his size, but fires on it, forcing it to detach from the Phantom.

Chopper cheers then continue to fire at the droids as they were giving chase, "Right, I'll handle those clankers." Rex said as he turns back and pulls himself to the back. "Hold on tight!" he calls out.

Zeb and Hando watch him pull to the back, "Where are you going?" Hando asks, Rex opens the door, looking back at him, "Outside." he shouts and turns back, leaning out of the back.

He aims his blaster, firing at the droid, drawing its attention, it lunges its claw at him, then jumps onto the wing. Rex was barely hanging on as he was leaning far out.

Zeb notices then rush forward and grabs hold of his leg and held tight as he kept the clone from falling to his death. Rex aims and fires at the droid, knocking it off the Phantom, but not without damaging the thruster.

Barreling out of control, but it gains it for a moment until taking a nosedive, "We're going down!" Sabine calls out, pulling back on the controls as the alarms went off.

The last of the dismantler droid continued on their tail as they pass the station, "Chopper, get the engines back online!" Ezra orders him. Chopper grunts and began repairs.

The Ghost and the Droid disappear into the storm below, vanishing from the Imperial Scanners.

The electricity sparks at the Phantom, short-circuiting the power. Sabine regain a grip on the controls as she looks over and saw the droid, getting ready the ram them. But it was suddenly struck by lighting, short-circuiting it and it vanishes into the storm.

Chopper waves bye as it flies away, then power was restored as the thruster was back online. Sabine began to pull back, forcing the nose of the Phantom to point up, flying back towards the station, she dodges the gravitational well.

"Brace yourselves! I'm gonna lock on to the station," she calls out, everyone held onto the walls of the Phantom. Steady as she went, she turns the Phantom upside down and latched onto the catwalk, safe from the views of the Imperial.

Once it was safe, they climb out of the Phantom and onto the catwalk, but the cable moved as a Y-wing was placed in the insinuation cell and the starfighter was reduced to scraps and ejected out the back.

"We gotta shut down the conveyor before they're all slagged. Come on." Ezra ordered and the rebels hurried after her.

As they were going to pass through the checkpoint, an Ugnaught pulls himself out of the control room, trying to get fresh air. He turns and notices the rebels running towards them.
