The snow was falling like always on the temple of Ilum, the Jedi masters, were on the council chambers. The war was raging outside of the system, the separatist were attacking the planet with the hope of destroying the Jedi temple. The space battle was going bad the Republic fleet were almost destroyed.

"We have to do something, the separatist are not holding this time. Our communication were cut off, if they take this enclave the Jedi's will not have more kyber cristal's" said master Voez Okel, a Mon Calamari.

"The system is almost captured, if we loss the space battle all is lost. We should prepare the resistance in the temple." Said this time, Uyid Crele, a Twilek Jedi master.

The door of the council chambers opened, a young Padawan was entering the room. A blue nautolan, with he was the clone commander of the Jedi temple.

"Masters, the droids have penetrated the blockade. We will have company in a short time" said the padawan.

"Thanks, young Rong Ulu, commander Triz, prepare the clones, we will meet you shortly" said Okel.

"Yes, General, we will meet you on the front doors." Said the commander taking his leave.

"Master, I don't know why, but I feel a disturbance on the force. Like if something is about to happen" the padawan said.

"I know that I have told you to listen to the force, young padawan, but now you need to concentrate on the present battle" Uyid told him.

The master were discussing battle plans, the padawan knew that something was not right, it was if like thousand of voices called him and it was like a pound on the heart. The commander was preparing all his troop for a resistance on the temple. If the temple falls the separatist will have another planet on their ranks. It was supposed to be the end of the war, count Dooku was dead, General Grieavous was found and their leaders were being followed. But somehow the separatist managed to attack more system.

"The droid army is close, we need to go with the clones." Said Okel.

The Jedi masters and the padawan ran down to the front doors. The clones had organized themselves on defensive positions. The armament of the temple was weak, there were no tanks and no turrets. And there were no more than two hundred clones.

"We don't have the numbers to defeat them, but we will need to use the high ground of the temples if we want to have a chance" said the Master Uyid to the commander.

"I have prepared our defense, we will need your help master to ensure our victory." Said Triz.

"My padawan and I would be on the frontlines. Master Okel, would be with the rest of the clones, if we fail, he would be our last hope." Uyid told him.

The wind was strong and the snow was falling like usual, the vision camp of the clones was weak. They were preparing them self's when a blaster was heard, one of the clones had open fired to something he thinks he had seen. When the army was quiet again, they saw when hundred of spider droids emerged from the floor. They were caught in a trap, the droids began attacking, the clones we'd unprepared. The battle began, the clones were trying to hold them off at the same time that the jedis began the attack. Master Uyid was swift with her lightsaber, she moved rapidly between the droids destroying them. Rong Ulu was behind her trying to keep her pase. Thanks to his tentacles he could sense the movement of the incoming droids. Triz was fighting beside Okel, they knew that it would be a matter of time before they were overwhelmed by the enemy.

The battle was lasting longer that the clone expected, thanks to the clones on the high grounds, but now there were coming more droids and tanks with them. The clones and jedis could not hold the combined army of the droids and the tanks.
