Narrator:Freedom. Following a bold rescue executed by Selene Avona manages to escape republic custody.

Morale continues to drop in the republic as Jedi and senators begin to question and protest the war.

(Coruscant).

Glass is shattered as people charge through the streets bulldozing over troops or any republic official trying to stop them from protesting the war they demanded an end to teh forced conscription of Young men to the TK Program and many were disgusted by more details about the war being exposed by Avona's spies in the senate.

In his office seeing the chaos once again unfold Palpatine is forced to call more troops from the front to maintain control and stability on Coruscant but he knows secretly this isn't just damaging the senate and Jedi's reputation in teh eyes of the people this was seriously affecting his own reputation as well

He was furious beyond comprehension. He had just spent 2 hours talking to the senate reassuring them that the war is still under control and that victory will be theirs.

further more high command was not so easy to calm down they were livid and demanded Tarkin get court martialed and executed for the lose of over 1 million men on Morelia It took Palpatine 6 hours to calm them down.

And finally he learned Avona the only bargaining chip they possessed had escaped and he knew there was no way Avona was going to show them mercy after being captured and Tarkin taking her Daughter and sister hostage.

Looking out his window he struggles to maintain his sith disguise as his eyes turn yellow in fury.

'Avona mark my words you will pay for going against me and you will be destroyed.' He thought bitterly.

Meanwhile the Jedi were in panic about the shadow order and the return of Darth Malgus one of the most powerful Sith in history.

"Calm down everyone." Windu called to the bickering group of council members.

"Calm down are you mad mace." Fisto says annoyed. "One of the most dangerous sith are out there and is helping the confederacy there is no telling what could go wrong now in the war."

"I agree with master Fisto we must not take this rising threat lightly." Plo says in agreement with Fisto.

However Mundi stands up. "It matters not it is probably a Sepratist trick anyway and besides we are Jedi we outnumber this shadow order over 200 to 1." He says confidently.

The other council members nod their heads in agreement and the discussion ends there but plo and Fisto along with Depa bilaba cannot shake the feeling that something is going to happen to the Jedi soon.

(Morelia).

As The ship landed Shak was quietly going over the last few hours and realizing juts how far Avona's reach was. She deduced two things.

1. she was still alive so she never killed her enemies while they weren't actively attacking her because Shak was not prepared for Selene and she knew Avona was infamous for her skills with weapons even if she was injured so they could've killed her.

2. She also noted that Avona also clearly cared for her family and people given how she was so willing to become a prisoner to save her sister and Daughter from republic custody.

Eventually the ship's ramped lowered and Avona was helped by Selene.

Shak Slowly followed them and as she stepped into the clearing she was met by the 6 Beskar Knights standing at attention in front of the ship. Holding her arms in front of her Shak was prepared to be made prisoner.
