A few weeks later after the incidents with Maul the Ghost crew was flying through hyperspace while being joined by Rex,Zack,Ahsoka and Mia who was wearing a black leather suit with plates of armor covering her shoulders,shins,and chest.
"So do we finally get to find out what this mission is about?" Ezra asked as Sabine smacked the back of his head making Hunter laugh.
"Hera already told you it's secret" she said.
"Isn't that what we normally do?" Ezra asked
"Somethings more then others" Hera said turning to Ezra than Chopper "Ok Chop put command through"
Chopper than activated a Hologram revealing Commander Sato and...
"Senetor Organa?" Hera asked
"I wanted to explain the mission personally Captain Syndulla, There is much at steak"
"How can we help?" Kanan asked
"Rebel command received your report on the sudden dissappearance of the Geniosion people we decided to take the risk and investigate"
"So we're hunting Geniosions now?" Hunter asked
"No you're looking for the team we already sent,we lost contact with them two cycles ago"
"Do you think it was the Empire?" Kanan asked
"Unknown we lost contact after the team reported an energy source on the planets surface"
"Energy source?" Hera said "When we went to Geniosis there was nothing,no signs of life or power"
"Your primary mission is to recover our people,and any intell they gathered"
"Who is it that were looking for?" Hera asked
"Saw Gerra" Rex replied making the others look at him.
"Rex you knew about this?" Kanan asked
"We all did" Rex said pointing to Zack,Ahsoka and himself.
"We've all known Saw a long time" Zack said
"And we learned when he's concerned about something it's worth taking a closer look" Ahsoka said
"So Uncle Saw is worried about what you found out on Geinosis?" Mia asked
"He's more concerned about what we didn't find" Rex said
Later the Ghost came out of hyperspace and appeared infront of Geniosis.
"The construction and debris we saw last time are gone" Hera said
"Well Im picking up a power source on the surface right where command said it would be" Sabine said "But I can't reach Saw on any channel only static"
"Geinosisans live underground probablywhy Saw and his team can't hear our transmissions" Kanan said
"I hope you're right" Mia said worried about her Uncle.
"Let's take a closer look" Hera said as she entered the planet's atmosphere as a dust storm came and force Hera to land.
"I had to set her down but were in the neighborhood" Hera said
"According to command Garra's team landed two clicks north of our position" Rex said
"Maybe they took shelter there" Ezra suggested
"It's possible" Zack said "Sabine what about the power source you detected?"
"Different location but close and thank to the storm i can't tell where or what it is" Sabine said
"Keep working on it" Hera said "until we found out more about that power source we'll split to two groups Rex,Kanan,Ezra Hunter,Mia and Chopper go and check out the area of Saw's last transmission"
Later the Rebels made their way inside the temple and looked for Saw and his team.
"I can't believe it did the bugs build this?" Ezra asked looking around the temple.
"Oh yeah" Rex replied "They were more clever than you think and creative doesn't mean they're not dangerous as well"
"So Rex how do you know Saw Gerra?" Kanan asked
"Oh we go way back" Rex replied "Zack,Ahsoka and I trained him and his sister Steela during the clone wars they formed their own rebellion against the sepritists they started their own rebel cell after the Empire took over."
"Hey we found somthing!" Hunter called out as he Ezra and Mia found an underground tunnel.
"Looks like an underground passage" Mia said
"This is the entrance to the tunnels" Rex said "looks like it was sealed"
"Not sealed enough" Ezra said
"This must be where Saw and his team went in" Hunter said as Chopper scanned the entrance.
"Chopper's still not picking up anything" Ezra said
"Let's go take a look" Kanan said as the rebels went into the tunnels and looked for Saw's team .
"So what do the Geinosisans look like?" Ezra asked
"Well they kinda look like Battle Droids to tell you the truth" Rex said "Ugly battle droids that smell"
"Over here" Hunter called out as she spotted some Rebel helmets.
"Know these markings" Rex said looking at the helmet "they're from Saw's team"
"But where are the people?" Ezra asked
"They must've been attacked" Rex replied
"By who?" Mia asked
"There's something up ahead" Kanan said sensing somthing "It's moving away"
"What is it?" Ezra asked
"It's gone" Kanan replied "we should go too"
"Go?" Rex questioned
"Why we have to find my Uncle and his rebels" Mia said
"All we found were some sealed up tunnels and some rebel gear" Kanan said "There's somthing working against us I'm not sure what but were out of our element and away from our team."
"We'll just call for back up" Ezra said
"That won't work we're too deep underground so our signal won't reach her" Hunter said
"Someone is down here and I bet they know what happened" Ezra said "I say we go on"
"I second that" Hunter said
"I'm in" Mia said
"Alright we'll go" Kanan said
The Rebels kepted walking through the tunnels looking for Saw until they reached the end of the tunnel.
"It's a dead end" Hunter said
"Do you have to call it that?" Kanan asked
Just then a bunch of Battle droids appeared behind the rebels.
"Hault" one said "you will be eliminated"
"Battle droids!" Kanan said igniting his blade while Ezra and Hunter did the same and Rex and Mia took out there blasters.
"We can do this" Ezra then a destroyer rolled up to them.
"Ok we can probably do this" Ezra said
"Jedi open fire!" The command droid said as the droids started blasting them while the jedi deflected the bolts. All the sudeen somthing exploded from the right wall.
"What was that!?" Ezra asked
"It wasn't the droids!" Rex replied
The Jedi cut down the destroyer droid while the rest were destroyed then the rebels saw a man possiblyin is early 30's with dark skin short beard wearing a full suit of armor and was carrying a blaster.
"Saw" Rex said as he approached
"Captain Rex so you decide to come to Geinosis after all" Saw said
"Yeah to save you" Rex said
"Is that what's happening?" Saw asked as he and Rex grasped hands.
"Uncle Saw!" Mia said as she ran up and gave Saw a hug.
"Mia I'm glad you're safe" Saw said
"You too I was worried" Mia said
"It's good to see you Old friend" Rex said "I want you too meet Kanan,Ezra,Hunter and Chopper"
"So you're jedi?" Saw asked
"We do our best" Ezra replied.
"Never thought I meet another Jedi" Saw said "much less three"
"That's right you've only met Obiwan,Anakin and my parents" Hunter said
"You're parents?" Saw asked looking confused.
"Yeah Zack Archer and Ahsoka Tano" Hunter said
"I see you're their son I've heard so much about" Saw said smiling at the hybrid.
"The galaxy is full of surprises" Hunter said
"Including what's happening here on Geinosis" Saw said
"You found something?" Rex asked as Saw smirked at the old clone.
"A sheild generator" Saw said "Sepritist model not as old as you Rex but someones been keeping it operational"
"Battle droids?" Ezra asked
"These old clankers no way" Rex said kicking one of them "technology's to advance for them beside from the look of them someone's been repairing them too"
"Well we were following somthing" Hunter said "that's how we wound up in this trap"
"It was a bug it had to be!" Saw said "he got my unit using the same tatics i was the only survivor"
"What about mom and dad?" Mia asked
"They didn't come with on this mission" Saw replied while his neice sighed in relief.
"Yeah the more i hear the more I don't like this" Kanan said "we should go back and report to Hera"
"No wait you can't!" Saw said "that bug is the key to finding out what's going on here don't you understand whats at stake? We know the Empire wiped out the entire population of this planet we need to find out why the Empire is hiding somthing important and that bug knows what it is"
"He's right" Ezra said "I say we help Saw"
"I second that" Rex said
"I'm in" Hunter said
"Me too" Mia said
"Ok we can stay and search for the bug but we have to warn Hera about the droids first" Kanan said
"I can help you with that follow me" Saw said as he lead the Rebels down another tunnel.
"I been able to map a fair amount of these tunnels" Saw said
"There's a breeze" Kanan said as he walked until Saw stopped him.
"Watch your step Master jedi" Saw said "Its a long way down"
Then the Rebels made their way to a cavern that had an opening at the top.
"I tracked the bug to this shaft" Saw said "But because of the bridge I've never been able to get across"
"How far down is it?" Hunter asked
"Down I don't know" Saw replied "But it goes all the way up to the surface thats how you can feel the air"
"So we can comtact our ship" Kanan said
"Exactly" Saw said as Kanan whipped out his comlink.
"Spector 1 to Ghost do you copy?" Kanan said "Spector 2 come in"
"Spector 1 I read you where have you been Kanan what going on?"
"We've found Saw Gerrera but his team is gone,Hera listen to me there are operational battle droids here probably on the surface better keep an eye out" Kanan said
"Sabine and Zeb found a shield generator they're out there extracting the deflector core"
"You have to warn them Gerrera said once the storm dies down those droids will be coming" Kanan said
"Alright I'm calling it get back to the surface before these battle droids or anything else wakes up"
"Copy that Hera" Kanan said
"Wait a minute were not going anywhere" Saw said
"We have to help our friends" Ezra said
"If we don't they might be blown to bits" Mia said
"You wanna help your friends? Then find out who's controling those droids" Saw said while Kanan sensed somthing up ahead.
"Ezra,Hunter far side of the cavern directly across from us see anything?" Kanan asked while the teens looked.
"Chopper light it up" Ezra said as Chopper lit up the cavern and the Rebels saw the bug they were looking for.
"Over there!" Hunter pointed
"I knew it!" Saw said as he and the others saw the bug activate some kind of controller while Hera contacted Kanan.
"Kanan we got a problem the droids have been activated!"
"Sabine and Zeb are in trouble let's go!" Kanan said while the bug ran off.
"We're not leaving without that bug" Saw said
"He's not as important as our friends!" Ezra said
"You'll never reach them in time" Saw said "We capture the bug turn off the droids we save your friends"
"He's got a point what do you think Hera?" Hunter asked through his comlink.
"It's a good plan get the bug"
"Hunter and Ezra I'm sending you over on three" Kanan said while the teens backed up for a running start.
"1,2,3!"
Hunter and Ezra both force jumped across the cavern while Kanan lifted them across and they ran after the bug until they hit a fork in the path.
"Let's spilt up" Ezra said
"Right" Hunter agreed as he went left and Ezra went teens kept running down their paths until they ran right smack into eachother.
"Hunter!?" Ezra said "how'd he get past you?"
"I could ask you the same thing" Hunter said
Ezra then tried to sense where the bug was then jumped up and struggled to grab it making the bug drop the remote on Hunters head.
"Ow!" Hunter said rubbing his head.
"Hunter grab the remote!" Ezra said
But before Hunter grab it the bug drop kicked him and took off with the remote the teens ran after it and saw the bug was cornered by the other rebels.
"It's over slimeo" Hunter said
"That's right we got you" Saw said pointing his gun at the bug then pinned it to the wall "Now you're gonna tell us whats going on here what were you building for the Empire!?"
