==Moral==
Most powerful is he who controls his own power.

==Plot==
Once alerted of Nute Gunray's escape, Jedi Master Kit Fisto and his former apprentice Nahdar Vebb follow the tracking beacon of his stolen ship to Vassek, but soon find that he is not there. They attempt to sneak up on him, but all they find is a gloating hologram. It turns out to be a trap for them and a test for Grievous, who has received a holo message from Count Dooku telling him that Darth Sidious wants more results — more dead Jedi.

Upon his arrival to his lair, Grievous is confronted by Fisto and Vebb, along with their squad of clones. A lightsaber duel breaks out, and Grievous ends up having his legs chopped off just above the knees. However, Grievous escapes to his control room where he undergoes repairs from his medic droid. Grievous then orders his MagnaGuards to blow up the clones' transport to cut off escape. They attempt to destroy Fisto's starfighter and his droid, R6-H5, also, but Arsix manages to pilot the fighter away from danger.

Meanwhile Fisto, Vebb and the remainder of their clone squad follow Grievous, finding many booby traps along the way. A trapdoor opens beneath them, and one of the clones is killed in the carbonite vat below. Fisto and Vebb force jump above the pit, and Clone Commander Fil uses a cable to cling to the side of the pit and climb up. After this debacle they meet Grievous' pet roggwart, Gor. After a short battle, Gor is eventually killed by Fisto. Unfortunately, Fil is killed, which enrages Nahdar. While Grievous is watching this all-playout, he is contacted by Count Dooku. This time the message confirms to Grievous that this is a test for him. He decides to play along, and he and his guards go hunting.

When the two parties meet, Vebb skillfully defeats all five of Grievous' guards. During the fight, Fisto is locked into the control room, unable to help Vebb. He found A4-d and cut him in half. Vebb proceeds to attack Grievous, but is shortly shot and killed. Fisto calls for R6-H5 to meet him at the south landing platform. After a brief but intense battle with Grievous, Fisto starts to gain the upper hand, but some of Grievous's battle droids arrive, and Fisto, seeing how the odds were changing, escapes and returns to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, where he tells Yoda and Mace Windu about the confrontation. He tells them that, "Nadhar's heart was in the right place, but he tried to match Grievous' power with his own." Yoda says that in the war, there is a danger of loosing who they are. Meanwhile, Dooku informs Grievous that there is room for improvement, seeing that he was unable to kill Master Fisto.

Redirect to:

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:
  • To an embedded anchor: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to an embedded anchor on the redirect's target page.
    • An {{anchor|(anchor name)}} or {{visible anchor}} template, a HTML element with id="(anchor name)", or an |id=(anchor name) parameter might be installed at the beginning of a paragraph, in or near a section header or within a table. The anchor might also be an old section header that has been edited and is anchored within or near the new header to prevent broken internal and external links.
    • Even though section headers of the general form ==(Header name)== are themselves a type of anchor, use {{R to section}} instead.
  • With possibilities: This is a redirect from a title that potentially could be expanded into a new article or other type of associated page such as a new template. The topic described by this title may be more detailed than is currently provided on the target page or in a section of that page.
    • When the target page becomes too large, or for any reason a new page would be an improvement, this redirect may be replaced with an article, template or other project page that is carved out of the target page. See also {{R to section}} and use together with this rcat when appropriate.
    • If the topic of the redirect is not susceptible to expansion, then use other rcats such as {{R to section}} or {{R to list entry}} when appropriate.
    • Since a new page may be created, links to this redirect should not be replaced with a direct link to the target page. To make redirects to this page, use {{R avoided double redirect}}.
    • {{R printworthy}} should be used together with this template when applied to a redirect in mainspace.
    • When used on a template redirect, it will automatically populate Category:Template redirects with possibilities.
When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
