Mission to Kamino (Separatist Crisis)

Legends Canon version → Linked from 39 articles

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

In 22 BBY, Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi went to the planet Kamino on a mission to find the bounty hunter responsible for the plot to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo. Kenobi was informed by the Prime Minister of Kamino, Lama Su, that a bounty hunter named Jango Fett lived in Tipoca City, the capital city of Kamino. After Kenobi questioned Fett about the plot, Fett attempted to escape from Kamino with his clone son, Boba Fett. Kenobi confronted Fett and engaged him near Slave I, Fett's starship. During the duel, Kenobi managed to knock both twin blasters out of Fett's hands. Kenobi, however, lost his lightsaber, and as he used the Force to pull it back to him, Fett used his whipcord launcher, to yank Kenobi's hands away. The two fought hand-to-hand on the wet surface platform until Kenobi kicked Fett, which caused the bounty hunter to lose his footing and fall off the platform. Kenobi, who was still tied to Fett's whipcord, was pulled off the platform behind him.

Fett disconnected the whipcord that held Kenobi, and the Jedi fell down towards the ocean as Fett retreated back to his ship. The Jedi used the Force to secure himself with the cable Fett released, and swung towards a door below the platform they had dueled on. Fett boarded his ship as his son took off, while Kenobi rushed back out onto the platform. Kenobi located his lightsaber and ignited it, but Slave I had lifted off from the platform. Kenobi took out a tracking device from his belt and threw it onto the hull of the ship. Soon after, Kenobi tracked the pair to the Outer Rim planet of Geonosis, in his Delta-7 Jedi Starfighter and engaged Fett once more in the asteroid field above Geonosis.
