General Grievous, Supreme Commander of the CIS Droid Army, stalks over to edge of the landing pad, towards Obi-Wan Kenobi. He holds his electrostatic, ready to kill the Jedi Master, when he sees an object fly towards Kenobi. In that instant, Grievous remembered the blaster that he had dropped, and feels his blood run cold. Before he can do anything, he sees Kenobi fire off round after round, and feels a searing heat in his chest. He looks down, and sees his heart literally exploding. In a futile effort, he tries cover the wound, but it's too late. He feels his cybernetic body failing, and his vision goes black.
—————
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
Grievous groans, and opens his eyes. He finds himself strapped to a medical and table, and sees a medical droid operating on his chest. He attempts to move his head to get a better look, but feels his head be restrained by another droid. Grievous growls, and aims a venomous glare at the droid holding him down. It's none other than one of his MagnaGuards. Grievous suddenly feels a searing pain in his chest, and he lets out a howl of agony.
Grievous looks down, and sees a black box where his heart had been. He realized what was happening. He was alive! He would be able to continue the war against the Republic, and he would have his revenge on Obi-Wan Kenobi for doing this to him. Grievous waits for the medical droid to finish installing the box, and then he swings his legs over the edge of the table. He stands, and flexes his hands. He had been fully repaired, down to the last duranium plate.
Grievous chuckles darkly, and walks out of the medical bay. He begins marching towards the bridge of the ship, and takes note of the sparse amount of droids onboard. As he reaches the bridge; Grievous is greeted by a Tactical Droid. "Welcome back, General. I see your repairs have been completed. I'm pleased to report that despite our meager numbers, the fleet managed to escape Utapau." Grievous eyes the droid, and gestures to the viewport. "Where are we, droid?"
The droid is silent for a moment, no doubt getting the answer to Grievous's question. "We have just arrived in the Mustafar system. Your shuttle is ready, and your Lightsabers are aboard." Grievous would have grinned if he had a mouth. He chuckles, and turns to head to the hangar bay. He is escorted by four MagnaGuards, and when he gets to the hangar, he finds six commando droids waiting. He gestures to them, and the group boards the shuttle, then heads down to Mustafar's surface.
—————
Grievous's shuttle lands on the facility's landing pad, and finds a silver ship next to his shuttle. Narrowing his eyes, he spots the fallen body of Padme Amidala on the ground, and he growls. Something wasn't right here. He stalks into the facility, and he hears the unmistakable sound of Lightsabers clashing. Grabbing two of his own Lightsabers, he rushes into the conference room, and his eyes widen. There was Obi-Wan Kenobi, dueling none other than Anakin Skywalker. 'What is going on here!?!', Grievous thinks. He activates his Lightsabers, one blue and one green, and stands tall. "Well, well. What have we here?"
Grievous would pay any number of credits to have Obi-Wan's expression engraved in stone. The look of shock on his face was a sight to behold. Skywalker; on the other hand, was wearing a look of outrage. Grievous notices something, though. His eyes are a nasty shade of yellow. 'What- is it possible... Skywalker is the apprentice of which Sidious spoke!?!'
Grievous raises his Lightsabers in front of him, and summons his droids to the conference room. Before they could arrive, Grievous looks towards Skywalker. "So, you are the apprentice that Lord Sidious spoke of?" Anakin's expression changed from outraged to confused. In that moment, so I-Wan seems to recover from his shock of seeing Grievous, and takes advantage of Anakin's confusion to slam the pommel of his Lightsaber into the back of Anakin's head. Skywalker's eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he crumpled to the ground.
Grievous quickly looks towards Kenobi, and growls. "You fool, your Republic will fall before the night of the Separatists. With Lord Sidious's new apprentice, I will destroy your precious Jedi Order!" Obi-Wan's face shows sadness, and he lowers his Lightsaber. "Grievous, you have been being used! Sidious and Palpatine are one and the same! The Jedi Order is destroyed, and an Empire has been established. The Republic and the Separatists... they are no more." Grievous's eyes widen at this, and his mind reels. A thousand thoughts rush through his mind, but he doesn't let this distract him. He raises his Lightsabers to a form II stance, and just as his droids rush in, he growls, "Your lies will not save you, Jedi. You will pay for your attempt on my life!"
Before he can attack, however, several laser bolts streak into the room. Spinning to face this new threat, Grievous sees a squad of clones rush in. He growls, and prepares to fight when he notices the clones firing on Kenobi as well. Realizing that Kenobi had been telling the truth, he calls out, "Kill the clones, and assist the Jedi! We need to get to my shuttle!" Kenobi nods, and rushes forward, following the MagnaGuards and Commando Droids, who killed the entire squad. Grievous quickly follows, and they rush to the landing platform. As Grievous moves to his shuttle, he looks towards Kenobi. "Get your ship up to my fleet. We need to leave, now!" Kenobi nods, and takes Amidala aboard the silver ship.
Boarding his shuttle, Grievous grabbed the controls, and flies up into Mustafar's atmosphere. Checking the shuttle's sensors, he saw that Kenobi was following him. The two ships managed to get to the fleet just in time to see three Republic, or rather, Imperial Star Destroyers battling his fleet, which was losing. A couple vulture droids escort the two ships to Grievous's new flagship, the Malevolent Raider.
As the ships land in the hangar bay, Grievous leads Kenobi, who is carrying Amidala, to the same medical bay he had just left hours ago. Several droids give them confused looks, but they continue on their way. When the enter the medical bay, Kenobi places Amidala on the operating table, where the medical droid begins examining her. Satisfied that she was safe, Kenobi looks at Grievous. "We need to contact Senator Bail Organa. He is with Master Yoda, they will be able to help Padme." Grievous didn't really care about the Senator, but it wouldn't do to have the Jedi as enemies, not now. Grievous looks to his tactical droid. "Get us out of here, now!" The droid nods, and gives the order. The ships jump to hyperspace, escaping the Imperial Star Destroyers.
