INT - REPUBLIC FIGHTER - NIGHT
The PILOT flies around the radio station as it burns to the ground, General Dameron is inside the cockpit looking at the scanners
DANE
Anything?
PILOT
Nothing sir, I would advise we leave soon the lava is reaching dangerous levels and we've already picked up all the insurgents
The General sighs and paths the pilot on the shoulder
DANE
Very well, fall back
PILOT
Wait, there's a life sign north of the station, looks like he's holding a Lightsaber
DANE
Go
The fighter moves towards the life sign and they see Rhys swinging his Lightsaber with a figure beside him
EXT - MUSTAFAR PLAINS - NIGHT
The fighter lands and the ramp opens up, General Dane along with his soldiers exits the fighter,
The soldiers secure Weylan and Rhys runs inside with them but the General stops him
DANE
Where's Kyra?
Rhys shakes his head and the General lets him in, he follows him inside and the ship flies back into space
INT - PERCIVAL - DAY/NIGHT
Rhys is inside with a cup of water in his hand and a blanket around him, the General walks in
DANE
You did well Rhys, thwarted a genocide and captured the leader, or what was left of him
RHYS
Thank you sir
DANE
Pity about Kyra, had she not disobeyed orders she would be here
RHYS
She was sorry for missing the drinks you promised and hoped your meeting with the king went well
DANE
Fortunately, that bounty hunter stopped us before we even landed not bad for a Mandolorian
RHYS
She was a good friend sir
DANE
Was she now?
The two look at each other in silence however Rhys breaks it with a cough
RHYS
Sorry General, but I must contact the Jedi council
DANE
They are already waiting for you, after I submitted my report they immediately called, I will leave you to it while I make sense of the rambling mess down below
Dane leaves the room however he stops midway and turns back to Rhys
DANE
Look them in the eyes when you tell your lies
Rhys looks at Dane who walks off smiling
INT - PERCIVAL COMM ROOM - DAY/NIGHT
The room begins to darken and the table in the centre lights up as Haru Bolin and Haloran appear in the centre
HARU
Well?
Rhys holds out Cale's ID tags and drops it on the table
RHYS
It's done, master
HARU
And the body?
RHYS
Destroyed
HARU
You should have brought it back to us if you had any idea
HALORAN
Calm Haru, Rhys has held up his end surely
Haru looks at Rhys and takes a breath
HARU
Very well, however, I will require a detailed report of the events before we move forward and once that is done...Rhys Al Khar will be inducted to the Jedi Order
RHYS
Thank you master
HALORAN
Your father would be proud Rhys, and as soon as you are ready we shall begin your training
HARU
Rest well padawan, you will need it
The Jedi turn away however Rhys does not
RHYS
Master Bolin?
Haru turns back to Rhys
RHYS
You said you would tell me about Cale, will you still hold up your end?
Haru looks at Rhys with a scowl on his face
HARU
Very well, I guess you deserve to know that much
The transmission ends and Rhys looks down at his Greatsaber and grips it tightly
INT - REN FIGHTER SHIP COCKPIT - DAY/NIGHT
Kyra is sitting in the cockpit while the ship is travelling at warp speed she looks beside her at Weylans Lightsaber on the seat
She takes the Lightsaber, presses some buttons on the console and heads to the main body of the ship
!INT - REN FIGHTER - DAY/NIGHT
She moves to a bunk where Cale is fast asleep, she pulls the blanket over him and smiles at the boy
Kyra moves to the middle of the room and presses the switch causing a black light to emanate, she grips it in both hands and takes a stance
