We were sending the Padawans away to heal.

"Sorry to leave you both here Rex, Cruiser. There's still a lot to do." Ahsoka says to the two Captains.

"You two have done enough destroying that factory." Cruiser replies.

"Go get some rest. We'll let General Kenobi take it from here." Rex agrees with his brother and Crasher nods in agreement.

"We'll be back before you know it Captain Rex, Captain Cruiser, Captain Crasher." Barris says before the two Padawans turn to get into a gunship.

"Ready, sir!" A Clone says before the Padawans get onto the gunship, heading to get some healing and rest. Krux and I walk away, heading toward Master Luminara to stand beside her on the cliff. I hear the gunship carrying Obi-Wan arrive, landing not too fat behind us.

"A hard won victory." Obi-Wan says, making us turn to see him and his men coming out of the ship.

"Indeed." I say in agreement with him.

"And a costly one. We suffer a great many losses in these battles." Luminara says we look back over our men.

"Too many." Krux agrees with her.

"The battles do appear to be coming with growing frequency." Obi-Wan says in agreement.

"No sign of Poggle then?" she asks.

"Nothing. We have Clone squadrons spread out all over the area, but no hits yet." Obi-Wan says.

"I'll go out and find some clue as to where he went." she says as she walks to a speeder bike that was parked not too far from us on the cliff.

"I'm sure the Clones can handle-" he says before Master Luminara interrupts him.

"Poggle has too much information about the Separatists to let him get away." she says.

"Very well, Master Unduli." Obi-Wan and I say carefully.

"Just make sure to leave a bit of strategic planning for me when I get back Master Kenobi, I would hate to feel left out." she says before she zooms off. I chuckle softly.

"Wow. You have such a way with women, Obi-Wan." I say to him.

"And you have such a way to control Anakin." he teases back.

"Hey, you had no better luck than when he was a Padawan." I say as we walk.

I walk into the command room of a Cruiser before I see Master Mundi.

"Master Mundi." I greet.

"Master Shan." he greets back.

"What's this? I didn't expect you to be up and about." Obi-Wan says to Master Mundi.

"After enough time in a bacta tank, one longs for the mundane comfort of star charts." Master Mundi replies with a smile.

"Too true. Just ask the 125th when I get out of a bacta tank." I say with a smirk.

"Seems like it did you some good, your wound looks almost healed." Obi-Wan says to him.

"I wish I could say the same for most of my men." Master Mundi says as we look out the window over the men of Master Mundi, Master Unduli, Obi-Wan, Anakin and my battalions.

"We all do Master Mundi, believe me, we all do." I say, feeling regret that I can't help my men heal when they were so badly hurt.

"Well, let's make sure we don't have to take Geonosis a third time." Obi-Wan says.
