The entire base was running around to gear up for the rescue of the padawans. BID soldiers and other clone troopers loaded up in fighter pilots and set off to scout for where the padawans could be held at.

Echo Squad was still there, general Sabra walked up.

"Bring my padawans back safely." General Sabra said.

Volta looked over at general Sabra.

"To get them back we will need better gear to charge head on." Volta stated.

"What are you thinking of Volta?" General Sabra asked.

"We need a juggernaut tank." Volta replied.

"Granted, on one condition." General Sabra agreed.

"And that is?" Volta asked questioningly.

"I'm coming with you." General Sabra stated.

Volta nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, the two padawans woke up in a cell. Mimix looked around then at Cariko in fear.

"C-Cariko? Where.. w-where are we?" Mimix asked, her voice trembling.

Cariko looked around the cell. He didn't speak for a few beats. As if trying to figure out if this was real or a trick of the force.

"We've been captured... Mimix I fear we've been taken by the separatists. Whatever they do, you mustn't cave in to their demands." Cariko stated.

Mimix was now even more concerned. What was Cariko talking about with not caving into their demands?

"Cariko? W-what are they going to do to us?" Mimix asked.

"My best guess, either try to get information from us. Or, try and make us join them.." Cariko would answer.

"And if we refuse either?" Mimix asked.

"They'll kill us." Cariko said plainly.

Mimix looked scared.

"Mimix, you can't let them see you're afraid they'll use it against you." Cariko said.

The sounds of clanking was heard snapping the attention of both the padawans to the ray shield trapping them in the cell. A tactical droid was there with a couple of B1s. Cariko glares at the droids as they enter the cell.

"You're friends won't come for you. However, if you tell us what we want to know, you both can serve a higher purpose." The tactical droid stated coldly.

"Ha as if! You'll see they are coming for us and when they get here, you'll regret taking us you bucket of bolts!" Snapped Cariko in a fiery manner.

The tactical droid didn't like how difficult Cariko was being. He made a motion to the B1s with him and they shot a stun bolt at the two padawans then dragged Cariko out.

Hours passed before Mimix finally regained consciousness she slowly sat up and looked around. Her eyes widening in fear as she saw Cariko laying motionless, bruised from the torture he was forced to endure. His breathing was ragged and uneven. Mimix quickly rushed over to him the best she could in her state of fear.

"C-Cariko?" Mimix called out her voice trembling.

He groaned in response before looking up at her.

"I-I-I'm ok Mimix..." Cariko's voice was raspy.

Mimix was still worried trying to make sure Cariko stayed awake. Time ticked by for an unknown amount of time before the tactical droid and B1s once again appeared outside of the cell. Once again entering the cell. The B1s had their blasters aimed at the two padawans incase they tried anything funny. The tactical droid stepped forward towards the two. Looking at Mimix now.
