The two were in a saber lock until the assailant used the force to push them back. Ezra and Zalo fell to the ground, as Kanan and Darrel landed on their feet. The assailant striked at Kanan again, but Kanan blocked his attack, then tried to counterattack. Before he could, the assailant grabbed Kanan's arm and threw him into nearby crates.

Darrel jumped and landed behind the assailant, then he quickly turned to the Jedi Knight and the two exchanged blows as they entered another saber lock.

"You show promise and potential, but you have much to learn." He said.

Darrel ignored the comment and kicked the assailant. Then he flipped behind him used the force the push him back. Kanan and Ezra came behind Darrel looked at the assailant slowly approaching then. But then, Sabine and Zeb threw grenades at a few AT-STs near the assailant. Once they exploded, they landed to him. The Jedi sighed in relief and turned around and walked towards the shuttle.

Before the Jedi got any closer to the shuttle, they heard something. They turned around to see the assailant using the Force raise the AT-ST wreckage away from him. It was clear that they couldn't defeat hin, they had to retreat!

"If that doesn't kill him, what will?" Ezra asked.

"Not us. Run!" Kanan replied.

The assailant droped the wreckage behind him and ignited his lightsaber. The Jedi and the rebels ran to the shuttle and saw the assailant slowly approaching them. Sabine drew her blaster and fired two shots at the assailant, but he deflected the shots back at her. The first shot hit her torso armor, and the second shot hit her helmet, causing her to fall back. Then the ship took out, the rebels escaped, leaving the assailant at the Imperial Complex. A surviving Stromtrooper approached the assailant, he turned to face the trooper.
