I was helping Anakin, Admiral Yalarin, R2 and R5 brief the men taking part in this counter strike against the Separatist ship the Malevolence.

"This strike force has been commissioned by the Senate to hunt down the enemy's new battle ship. As the bulk of our fleet's are engaged on the front lines, we'll be on our own. Generals Skywalker and Shan have prepared our attack strategy." Admiral Yalarin says before he lets Anakin and I have the floor to tell the men the plan.

"Thank you Admiral." I say to him and he nods in reply.

"While our capital ships are vulnerable to the enemy's attack, I believe a squad of bombers can outmaneuver their ion weapon. Our target will be the bridge." Anakin says as he motions to the hologram of the enemy ship.

"And General Grievous." I agree with him, noticing the Clones whispering to each other.

"The head Clanker! Skywalker and Shan are getting ambitious." Matchstick whispers to another Clone, who smiles and nods slightly in agreement.

"Our bombers will attack at high speed to evade the enemy's ion weapon. We'll concentrate our firepower on the bridge superstructure. Here." Anakin says as he motions to the hologram of the bridge of the enemy ship.

"We destroy General Grievous and the ship will fall with him." I continue.

"Any questions?" he finishes before Matchstick stands up.

"Just tell us where that metal head is, sirs." he says before another stands up.

"Yeah! We've been waiting for a chance to take him out!" Another agrees, making the other Clones still sitting agree with them.

"Alright men, settle down." I chuckle with a smile, making them take their seats again.

"This is an important mission. We destroy Grievous, we can bring the war to a quicker end." Anakin says.

"Pilots, prepare your bombers!" I say, sending them off to do so.

"Skywalker, Shan, this is an aggressive plan. Are you sure your squadron can complete this mission?" Master Plo says to us.

"Let's ask them." Anakin says before i turn to the squad.

"Matchstick!" I call making him turn toward us.

"You think our boys can pull it off?" Anakin asks as I nod in agreement with his question.

"Yes, sirs! There hasn't been a mission Shadow Squadron couldn't complete!" Matchstick replies as he stands at attention.

"That's right, minimal causalities maximum effectiveness! That's us!" A Shadow Squadron member agrees, making the others nod.

"I admire your confidence, pilot. Even so *turns to the Admiral, Anakin and I* minimal casualties may be enough to prevent you from breaking Grievous' defenses." Master Plo says, Ahsoka walks forward.

"Master Plo is right. With Grievous on that ship's bridge, it's bound to be well protected." she agrees.

"Don't worry Ahsoka, we'll destroy that bridge." Anakin says.

"And Grievous along with it." I agree before we walk away to prepare our own fighters for battle.

Anakin, Ahsoka, R2, R5 and I were walking to the fighters.

"Which one's mine?" Ahsoka asks.

"Ahsoka you're with me." Anakin replies, making her look at him I disbelief.
