Second battle of Christophsis

At least two years after the Battle of Christophsis, a second battle took place on the planet Christophsis during the Clone Wars. After deducing that the Jedi Master Quinlan Vos had fallen to the dark side of the Force, the Jedi Council sent him on a mission to kill the Separatist leader Count Dooku in order to test his loyalty. From Vos' lover Asajj Ventress, the Jedi learned that Dooku's dreadnought would be visiting Christophsis. Together, Vos and Ventress traveled to Dooku's flagship where Vos managed to engage in a lightsaber duel. Unknown to Vos, the Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker tailed along.

When Vos failed to kill Dooku and instead demanded that the Sith Lord lead him to his master Darth Sidious, the Jedi were presented with irrefutable evidence of Vos' collusion with the Separatists. Kenobi and Skywalker arrested Vos and Dooku but the duo managed to escape following a confrontation aboard the Venator-class Star Destroyer Vigilance. Together with Ventress, Vos and Dooku attempted to flee aboard Dooku's dreadnought but were shot down.

After crash-landing their starship, the Banshee, on Christophsis, the trio trudged to a local Separatist base there were Dooku contacted Darth Sidious to secure passage offworld. Kenobi and Skywalker subsequently launched an attack on the fortress. Ventress was seemingly killed during a duel between Vos and Dooku. Following a climatic confrontation, Vos managed to reject the dark side by refusing to kill Dooku. Vos was taken into Republic custody and subsequently pardoned. Meanwhile, Dooku escaped offworld with the help of Darth Sidious and General Grievous.
