Three Jedi cruisers made their way cautiously into the Abregado System, which was dominated by a giant dwarf star. In the lead was Master Plo Koon's command ship, Triumphant. In the distance, silhouetted in front of the star was a massive, mysterious shape they were following : General Grevious's warship, Malevolence.
On the bridge of the Jedi cruiser, the atmosphere was tense. Clone Captain Wollfe walked up to Master Plo Koon and together they looked at the distant ship through the front viewports.
"The enemy's ship has reduced its speed, General," said Wollfe.
"They must have realised we are tracking them." Master Plo Koon responded.
He gazed out of the window thoughtfully.
"The fleet is holding its position, sir," Wollfe reminded him.
"I think its wise to report our position before we attack," said the Jedi Master, walking towards a communication console.
"Skywalkers fleet is nearby," Wollfe went on, "in the Bith System."
"Good," Plo Koon commented. "Perhaps he can reinforce us."
"From what I hear, Skywalkers always ready for a fight," Wollfe remarked.
"So I've heard..." said Plo Koon.
