Cad Bane sat in one of his hideouts, putting on spare clothes while putting away his newly acquired clone armor.

At this moment, he leaned back, adjusting his equipment while talking to a Sith Lord.

"I have delivered what you wanted, but this time, an unexpected situation arose - the Avengers, so the remuneration needs to be changed." Bane said.

"I will make it up to you, Bane."

Bane nodded and leaned forward, "Since you are the one who contacted me, it seems to me that you still need my services."

"I need test subjects. I want you to select five children and bring them to Mustafar," Sidious said.

"Kidnapping innocent children?" Bane said unimpressed. "I may be a bounty hunter, but even I know it's a bit inhumane. Honestly, kidnapping five children seems like a minor crime to someone like you."

"Among the children of the Jedi Knights, none is innocent." Sidious said firmly, "I can assure you of this."

"Of course, of course," Bain said contemptuously, putting on his hat. "As long as the price is right, it makes no difference to me."

-Jedi Temple-

All this time, Anakin, Yoda, Mace, and Pro were sitting in the meditation room. The four of them sat cross-legged on round chairs, closed their eyes, and used the Force to sense Bane's next target.

"Jungle world. I see, um, it's Rodia." Yoda said slowly.

Pro exhaled softly, "I saw a mother and her child."

"There is an ocean planet." Mace began, "Home... the Nautolans."

Anakin: "I feel... a place I've been before. Naboo."

"Yan-Gwa. A village. The southern sector," Yoda added. "Feel it strongly, I do."

"In the future, you see, young Skywalker," Yoda said, "to Naboo, you must go. Cad Bane, you will find it. With you, take your Padawan."

Anakin just nodded.

"There's something else." Plo Koon began. "I sense a force coming from... Jedda."

"Jeda?" Anakin asked confused, the name sounded familiar.

"That planet is very old, for a Jedi," Yoda said mysteriously, "Jeda had a temple. We pulled out the Jedi at the beginning of the war."

"We retreated from the Jedi Temple?" Anakin asked. "Why would we do that? It seemed the most unwise course of action."

"We were thrust into the war suddenly and quickly," Mace replied, "and several of the Temples we temporarily abandoned. Thankfully, no Separatist forces have taken them."

Anakin said. "Should we go there now?"

"The Force will guide us," Yoda said. "Jeda, this is not our first destination. We must go to Rodya and Naboo."

"Then I will go to Rodia," Plo Koon announced, and the group dispersed, with Anakin and Plo preparing to leave.

"It is still possible that Bane could target and abduct more children," Windu said to Yoda.

"Capture and retrieve the holodragon, we must," Yoda said, "and do it as quickly as we can, if we are to stop the dark side's plans."

Anakin runs to find Ahsoka and meets Spider-Man and Quicksilver.

"Ahsoka," Anakin called to her, "we need to act now."

"Master, what's going on?"

"We've managed to learn where Cad Bane will be going," Anakin said, "so we need to head to Naboo now. We have a chance to intercept him there."

"So do we have a plan?"

Anakin jumped at the sound behind him and looked back at Black Widow.

"Where exactly are you from?" Anakin asked in confusion.

"I just got back from my own mission, but it looks like you guys need help now."

Anakin wanted to ask more, but he was pressed for time, and frankly, leaving his Padawan with three Avengers felt like a sure thing that would capture him if they encountered Bane.

"Okay, let's go then. I'll give you all the details on the way."

The Jedi Knights and willing Avengers have sprung into action as a bounty hunter is way ahead of them.

Cad Bane arrived on Rodia long before the Jedi or Republic forces arrived, and he was dressed in Jedi robes.

Cad Bane sat in the living room with the mother of the Rodian baby. "Your son is strong in the Force. He will make an excellent Jedi Knight."

Although the child's mother is proud, she is quite worried.

“Master Ropal said he would go to the temple sooner or later, but he didn’t say now,” the mother said in a concerned tone.

"Master Ropar does not realize the danger your son is in. There is a fake Jedi Master who has been wandering the galaxy, stealing many future Jedi treasures. In order to protect your son, I must take him to the Jedi Temple now."

The mother hugged her son tightly, not wanting to let go, and the disguised bounty hunter reached out his hand.

"But he's my only child."

A Jedi starfighter piloted by Master Plo Kun descended from hyperspace above the planet Rodia. Plo detached from the hyperspace ring and quickly flew to the surface of the planet.

Pro's space mecha made several concerned noises.

"I know about D6. I hope we're not too late." Plough said seriously.

Flying to the ground, Plough quickly jumped out of the ship and rushed out, recalling the home of the force-sensitive baby in his vision.

Passing through the droids and other Rodians, Plo Koon reached his destination, knocking repeatedly on the door.

"Hello? Hello? Is anyone there?" asked Pro.

The door opened, revealing a Rodian woman who glared at Pro.

"If you're looking for my son, Jedi, he's not here."

This made Plo Kun worried, and he asked anxiously: "What do you mean? Where is he?"

The only response he got was the door closing in front of him.

"Please, I'm just trying to help. Your son is in danger."

There was no response from inside the house, and the Jedi Master had no choice but to use the Force to open the door.

Once inside, he was faced with a blaster, the child's mother holding the weapon against him.

"You'll never find him from me."

"I mean no harm to you." Plo waved a hand in front of her, the Force clearing the Rodian's mind. "Tell me, where did the bounty hunter take your son?"

"A bounty hunter?" the mother asked doubtfully, "but he's a Jedi Knight."

Plo called upon the Force to take the blaster from her hands, staring at the weapon and saying, "Jedi do not carry blasters."

Mother Rodia gasped in disbelief, touched her face with one hand in dismay, and wailed in pain, "What have I done?" She began to cry and fell to her knees.

Just then, Pro heard the sound of an engine igniting outside the house.

He rushed outside and saw Cad Bane flying into the air and flying towards an adjacent building. Moments later, a craft took off to parts unknown.

Plough slammed his fist into the fence, blaming himself for his stupidity.

"Don't let me run into you again, bounty hunter!"
