The Republic also launched a new superweapon , an electro - proton bomb , which was capable of deactivating mechanical objects like speeders , computers , and droids , but had no effect on organics . The bomb worked and all the droids present were deactivated . However , as a side effect , a huge sinkhole was created in the center of the Droid Army . In addition to the Separatist forces , the sinkhole also trapped some clone troopers from the Republic front line who fell into it . Jedi Master Mace Windu formed a small group to investigate including Hawkeye , Trapper , Ponds , and some other clone troopers to form the search team that went down into the sinkhole . When they managed to find some of the lost clones , the search group learned from them that something else was down in the sinkhole with them . General Windu then led Hawkeye and the other searchers to investigate the area further . In their search , he and the rest of the squad found themselves on a hard surface , which they discovered was actually the back of a giant and ancient creature known as a Zillo Beast . The clones tried to shoot at the beast , but its hide was too thick for their blasters to penetrate , leaving them no choice but to flee from it . While the rest of the team barely escaped to a gunship with the help of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker , Hawkeye fell behind and was crushed by the feet of the beast as it chased the rest of the group .
