Battle droids scurry through the base as destroyer droids, B2s and AATs engage the imperial forces in a firefight. The General paces back and forth impatiently as Bat's team and the droids work together to repair the landing craft's engines and to add a hyperdrive quickly before the imperials arrive and blast them apart.
"This is 314. The first team has been destroyed. 1 Walker remains with more imperial reinforcements on the way." A droid says.
"Copy that. Let the vultures and hyenas slow them down." The general says.
"Roger Roger." the droid responds.
"You and some men can come with us in The Lobster." Bat tells the general.
"Thank you but I want to repair the landing craft first." He says.
Bat nods.
"If there's no time to...at least a few of you could come with us." Bat says.
BS-7, Abo and Bat's R4 were helping the droid pilots in the landing craft's cockpit while Bat helped to direct droids into the craft.
"Hey Bat." Ted's voice rings through the comlink.
The droid General looks at Bat.
"What's up?" Bat asks.
"We've almost finished repairing the engines but we still don't know what we're going to do for a hyperdrive." Ted tells Bat.
"Hmmm...I'll see what I can do." Bat says.
"Copy that." Ted says.
A battle droid commander walks over to the droid general.
"Uhh sir...should we tell them about the Venator?" The droid asks.
The super tactical droid turns toward the droid.
"No! No one must know of that!" The general yells.
"What Venator?" Bat asks.
"Oh uh...well..." the General starts.
"I'll be leaving..." the commander says and walks off.
"A Venator cruiser crashed down on the planet surface early in the clone war during the battle over this planet. When me and my forces were stranded here when we crashed we found it. We were able to restore it and repair it, even the engines and the hyperdrive." The super tactical droid tells Bat.
"Where is it?" Bat asks.
"It's hidden." The droid tells Bat.
"Do you want to get out of here or be deactivated by the empire?" Bat asks.
The droid hesitates for a moment.
"Follow me." The General tells Bat and leads him outside.
He presses a button on a datapad and a large snow and ice mound begins to shake as it slowly rises and crumbles, revealing a large Republic Venator-Class Star Destroyer beneath it.
"There is a crew of 160 droids on board as well as another 6 dozen crew maintaining the old clone fighters and tanks still on board as well as our fighters and tanks we moved in there's. There is an additional 5 dozen droids currently charging in there and 20 others guarding the armory of clone weapons and armor." The general says.
"Move the rest of your droids in there. Tell the crew to prepare for take off and to open up the side hangar doors. Also tell the crew of the landing craft to head there with the other fighters and bombers. My ship will dock in the lower hangar." Bat tells the droid.
