Not long afterwords, ARC Trooper "Alpha" and Jedi General Sora Bulq were riding toward a mission aboard a Republic Gunship when it was suddenly attacked by the droid armies of the CIS. The gunship crashed and the two Republic figureheads were taken as prisoners. After learning of these unfortunate happenings, Jedi General Roron Corobb immediately summoned Delta Squad, and commanded them to track down and rescue the two heroes of the Republic.
