In space, an fleet of Republic cruisers were preparing to jump into hyperspace to the planet of Hypori. Inside the main Republic cruiser, Jedi Master Ki-Adi Mundi was talking with his fellow Jedi.

"And, as you can see," said Mundi, showing his companions his plan. "With this, we'll be able to make an surprise attack on the Separatist forces that will be in this area." He moved his hand to the planet of Hypori.

"This'll definitely work," an female Jedi, named Shaak Ti, agreed with the plan. "Thank you for telling us on how to defeat the Separatists on the planet, Ki-Adi."

"No problem," Mundi gave only an single nod, announcing the end of the conversation. The Jedi Master turned around to face the controllers of the cruiser. "Prepare to jump into hyperspace!" He pointed to the darkness of space with his closed hand.

"Yes, General!" The clones responded, pressing on a couple of buttons as the fleet began to jump to hyperspace, disappearing from where they originally were.

Near the planet of Hypori's atmosphere, an fleet of Separatist force was waiting for the Republic to come forth.

"General," an droid said to the white caped figure. "The Republic is coming out of hyperspace now."

"Good." The caped figure replied, pleased. "Good. When they have just arrived, prepare to fire at them."

"Yes, General." The droid nodded in understanding, just as the Republic fleet came out of hyperspace.

In the main cruiser of the Republic fleet, Mundi was surprised to see an entire fleet of Separatist forces. But, before he could say anything to alert his fellow Jedi, the enemy fleet began to artillery fire at the Republic fleet line, destroying some of the white cruisers other than the red and white coloured cruisers.

"Fire back!" Mundi shouted. "Now!" The Republic fleet started to fight back the Separatist fleet, but only managed to destroy a couple of enemy cruisers before vulture droids began to fly right at the Republic fleet. Republic starfighters began to fly out of the cruisers, and started firing at the vulture droids as the vultures began to fire at the clone starfighters, destroying many and making massive casualties on the clones.

As the fighting became more fierce and intense, the main Republic cruisers began to be the main attention as the seven Jedi was in them.

"Fire at the cruisers!" The caped figure yelled to his forces.

Vulture droids and cruisers redirected their attention to the red and white Republic cruisers, and immediately began to fire at them, causing an crossfire in the process. The seven red and white cruisers then began to fly down to the planet's surface as their engines was hit by a couple of vulture droids, bringing them down.

"How is this possible?!" Mundi yelled in shock just before his cruiser crash landed on the planet's surface as did the others near the main cruiser.

Much later, after killing many clones in their white Republic cruisers and destroying the entire fleet of starfighters, the B2 units of battle droids descended to the planet's surface at the command of the caped figure as the figure personally came down as well.

Coming face to face with the first Jedi, the caped figure took out its two lightsabers as it ignited them as did the Jedi, as the tension grew more intense.

The Jedi Master ran to the caped figure, but the figure foreseen this coming. It blocked the strike from the of the Jedi, before striking fiercely back at him.

The B2 super battle droids began to surround the fallen Republic cruiser as they artillery fired at it immensely while the caped figure fought the Jedi, who was trying to call for help.

"General Kenobi? General Kenobi!" The Jedi blocked another strike from the caped figure as his device began to work.

"Yes, Master Barrek?" Kenobi asked.

"We're in need of immediate assistance." Barrek told Kenobi. "There's only...only a few of us left." He ran a few meters from the caped figure, but it jumped in front of him again as it attacked fiercely again. "New droid general. He is unstoppable. General Kenobi--We--" He was finally taken down as the caped figure struck him in the belly, causing his communicator device to fall to the ground.

"Come in." Kenobi tried again. "Master Barrek. Come in." A clawed foot stepped and crushed the device.

The super battle droids continued to fire at the fallen Republic cruiser, until the figure's clawed hand was raised to the air and told them to stop with an sign.

Inside the wreckage of the fallen cruiser, an figure was running to another wreckage as it peeked around the wreckage, seeing the droids had stopped firing.

"Why have they stopped?" Mundi wondered quietly.

"Master?" His Padawan questioned lowly.

"Go. Go." Mundi signaled his Padawan, and they both sprinted towards the entrance of where the other Jedi was at. Mundi found his fellow Jedi resting, with one of them panting for little breath.

"Unstoppable." A Jedi, K-Kruhk, said breathtaking. "He is unstoppable."

"Never have we been out-manipulated by droids." Shaak Ti added, giving an sigh. "His strategies is without flaws."

"This is the end." Another Jedi said. "We're all doomed."

"Our predicament is dire, but do not despair. Focus. We are Jedi." Mundi reminded them. The five other Jedi nodded in agreement.

"Jedi," a voice called, surprising them.

The five other Jedi, other than Mundi, ran over the place to prepare.

"You are surrounded. Your army is decimated. Make peace with the Force now, for this is your final hour. But, know that I, General Grievous, am not completely without mercy. I will grant you a warrior's death. Prepare!"

Then, the six Jedi heard footsteps all around t hem, making Mundi to raise an brow in wonder and confusion.

"I can't see anything." One Jedi said, looking out into the open area.

"That noise." Ti added, looking through an hole of the wreckage.

"He is coming, alone." Mundi noted finally, taking in this Grievous character's footsteps is his own.

"We can't face him!" One Jedi called out.

"We must try, Padawan!" Mundi told him in an exclaim.

The footsteps came closer, being heard all over again.

"He's close...but, where?" Tarr, an green lightsaber Jedi, wondered.

"He's all around us!" The same Jedi said in fear.

"Calm yourselves." Mundi calmly told them as the footsteps came to an stop. "Steady." He began to sweat. "Steady..."

The nervous Jedi Padawan couldn't take it, he let out an scream as he ran for the outside of their hiding place.

"No!" Mundi ran after him, but it was too late. The figure, Grievous, jumped on the running Jedi, crushing him right underneath the cyborg.

Grievous stood up, spreading his cybernetic arms wide as his body parts opened.

"Head back!" Mundi told his companions, igniting his lightsaber. Grievous jumped back up again, disappearing from view.

Mundi and the other four Jedi slowly walked back in again, whilst having made an circle to look in all directions.

Above them, an shadowy figure slowly took out two lightsabers quietly. Its clawed feet loosened grip, as it made an noise that made Mundi look up in shock. He and his fellow Jedi managed to get away from the landing Grievous and started to attack the cyborg from all around.

The cyborg, though, hold his own strength against the Jedi. He attacked back, before spinning his torso around wildly as his attention was at Mundi, threateningly walking forward as the Jedi Master walked backwards, with the cyborg continuing to attack the Jedi Master with his lightsabers.

The other four Jedi ran for the cyborg, but Grievous held his strength against them as he attacked them with his two lightsabers. He began to hang upside down while dueling against the five Jedi, before jumping at Mundi, who jumped backwards to an wreckage that was above them.

The Jed Master used the Force at the ground under Grievous, who managed to quickly jump away just in time as he got up to the top of the wrecked cruiser. The Jedi looked above them, just as Grievous jumped back down towards them, creating some smoke around him, blinding K'Kruhk as the Jedi Master tried attacking the cyborg, who blocked his strikes before slashing one time before finally cutting K'Kruhk down with his second lightsaber, bringing the Jedi to his death.

Shaak Ti was shocked, before using the Force to grab some of the fallen wreckage to send them towards t he cyborg. Grievous, though, just blocked and destroyed the wreckage with relative ease. Seeing that Tarr was running towards him, Grievous grabbed the Jedi by the head, throwing him down to the ground, breaking his neck. Grabbing the second Jedi, Aayla, that came at him, Grievous threw the two behind him at the wreckage that was at the wall.

Mundi and Shaak Ti was the only ones left, as they ran up to the cyborg. Grievous blocked their strikes with his lightsaber, before spinning his cybernetic arms around wildly, shocking the two Jedi Masters greatly. Raising one clawed foot, Grievous kicked Mundi back to the wreckage behind the Jedi, before gaining his attention to Shaak Ti.

Attacking her wildly, Grievous got Ti to a corner as the cyborg continued his fierce strikes.

"Ki-Adi!" Shaak Ti shouted to the Jedi, grabbing his attention as she added in a shout, "Hurry!" She managed to use an Force-projection on her as her lightsaber was thrown out of her hand by Grievous, before being sent to the wreckage behind her, wounding her.

"No! Shaak Ti!" Mundi, unfortunately, grabbed Grievous' attention at him. The Jedi Master tried to use the Force to take his lightsaber to his hand, but Grievous' clawed foot grabbed it instead, surprising Mundi when the cyborg had three lightsabers. Two in clawed arms, and one in one cybernetic leg.

Mundi used the Force to grab one of the cyborg's lightsabers in his belt, grabbing it in his hand as he ignited the green lightsaber.

The two opponents stared at each other for a long moment, before Grievous jumped at Mundi.

On Coruscant, in the Jedi Temple, Yoda opened his eyes as he sensed something dark approaching.

"Mmm," he hummed. "Darker, the coming storm grows. I fear the dark clouds of the Sith shrouds us all."

Back on the surface of Hypori, an single modified gunship with the face of an rancor in the front, was flying through the air above the ground.

Inside the ship, the ARC troopers loaded their weaponry as the clone captain loaded his pistols.

"Commander, approaching target." Fordo said. "Begin jamming signals."

"Yes, sir." The pilot pressed an button, as an sound wave came from the gunship.

"Open doors." The doors of the gunship opened at Fordo's command.

"Approaching droid perimeter. We are undetected." The pilot told his captain.

"Gun it!" Fordo ordered.

"Sir!" The pilot pulled the thrusters forward, as the gunship sped forward towards the droid army that was surrounding the Republic cruiser. It hit one droid behind, before hitting another just before dropping off a lot of explosives that beeped as the super battle droids looked at the explosives before firing at the gunship that dodged behind an wreckage.

The gunship fired two missiles to the fallen cruiser, breaking up an hole as it flew in it. The gunship descended to the ground, as clones jumped onto the ground.

"There are three life signals." Fordo told his men. "One in the rubble." He pointed to the rubble, as an ARC trooper ran for the rubble. "Another in the rafters."

"Yes, sir." An second ARC trooper launched an cable to the ceiling.

"Every one else, with me." Fordo said. "Move out!" He started to run forward, with his men behind. After the last trooper got out of it, the gunship flew up to the hole it flew through, before facing the massive droid army approaching the wrecked cruiser.

It began to artillery fire at the droids, firing missiles as well, destroying many of them in the process.

Back in the cruiser, Fordo signaled his two of his men to hop on to the wreckage, they did so as the ARC troopers got into the open area where Mundi was fiercely fighting Grievous.

The cyborg was striking against his own lightsaber that was being held by the Jedi Master, before disarming him by striking the lightsaber out of his hand and prepared to finish him off...before finally noticing the clones that was looking at them.

The ARC troopers began to open fire at the cyborg, with Mundi managing to evade being fired at, as well. The cyborg ran through te wreckage and onto the wall as well as the ceiling. The ARC troopers followed his run as they continued to artillery fire at the cyborg.

"Shoot him down!" Mundi ordered them. "Shoot him down!" Three clones launched three missiles from their guns, but missed the cyborg as Grievous jumped back down to the ground as two metal parts fell to the ground also.

Grievous began slaughtering four clone troopers, before the captain called through his communicator.

"Echo, now!" The gunship came bursting in the area, with Grievous looking at it as the gunship faced the cyborg while the tension grew.

The gunship began to artillery fire at the cyborg, who ran away from it into the wreckage, jumping up and back down from the rubble before slashing an metal part open so he could run through. The gunship continued to fire at the cyborg.

The cyborg stopped at the next part of the area, before running again as the gunship fired a couple of missiles at him.

"Everyone, out!" Fordo ordered.

"No we must pursue!" Mundi ordered himself.

"General, we can't." Fordo began reminding the Jedi Master. "The survivors will die . We can no choice." Mundi looked unconvinced, but followed him to the gunship, hopping inside as did Fordo and the last ARC trooper that fired at where the cyborg could be hiding.

Inside the gunship, Mundi looked shocked to find Aayla and Shaak Ti receiving medical treatment. Medical cables was on them, giving them life support.

"Aayla," Mundi whispered in shock, before kneeling down to Ti's bed. "Shaak Ti."

"They're stabilize, sir." Fordo assured him. "They just might make it."

"And the others?" Mundi asked, holding Ti's hand.

"They're all dead, sir." Fordo sighed.

Inside the wrecked cruiser, Grievous took the lightsaber from the fallen K'Kruh.

Back in the gunship, Fordo pressed an red button, just as the explosives laid on the ground exploded, destroying hundreds of droids in the process.

Walking out of the wrecked cruiser, Grievous began to speak seemingly to himself.

"Run, Jedi, run. You have only prolonged the inevitable." The cyborg cackled evilly afterwards.
