Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

This attack occurred after the Trade Federation invaded Naboo in 32 BBY, when the Royal Naboo Security Forces were in desperate need of allies. Captain Kael and Lieutenant Gavyn Sykes of the Security Forces had joined together with Borvo the Hutt, who betrayed them and killed Kael. The Hutt planned to sell as slaves the Naboo civilians that Kael and Sykes had previously rescued from the Federation. Sykes and fellow Bravo Squadron pilots Vedd Deviss and Lutin Hollis, flying N-1 starfighters, split up and pursued the Hutt to his base on Porso Hill. Deviss saw the Hutt heading to Porso Hill and informed Sykes, who moved ahead and began his attack. After fighting through opposing starfighters, Sykes joined with the mercenary Kol Kotha, who led the Naboo pilot to Porso Hill but withdrew after receiving damage to his starfighter. Sykes engaged the Hutt's personal transport while his newly-arrived wingmen provided cover and forced the Hutt to flee.
