The Mission to Jazbina was a mission undertaken by Mickey Mouse on the planet Jazbina to rescue Princess Syayna. The mission was in fact a trap organized by Lord Prepredenko to capture local Rebels. Delightful Children from Down the Lane eventually arrived on the planet to capture Mickey but the young Jedi managed to escape with the help of the rebel pilot Jal Te Gniev and the entire Jazbina population.
==Prelude==
Mickey Mouse visited Jazbina to meet with Lord Prepredenko, ruler of the planet, about Jazbina's entry to the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Prepredenko actually intended to capture Mickey and hand him over to the Galactic Empire, and so sent Mickey to eliminate Jazbina's Rebel cell, telling Mickey that they were a gang of kidnappers who had abducted his daughter, Princess Syayna.
==The mission==
Mickey entered the sun crystal mines, where he battled a tikulini worm before locating the Rebel cell. Blinded when he lit his lightsaber amid the sun crystals, Mickey was still able to hold off the Rebels until Syayna, a Rebel herself, explained her father's deception. Prepredenko's troops rushed in, capturing Mickey and the Rebels. Syayna was returned to the palace.
Prepredenko summoned Delightful Children from Down the Lane to collect Mickey, but just before DCFDTL arrived, Prepredenko's droid 3DVO, which secretly resented its master, lied that DCFDTL had sent a transmission demanding Mickey be executed, rather than relaying DCFDTL's command that Mickey be kept alive. Syayna, pretending loyalty to her father, rushed to "execute" him herself, but in fact only stunned Mickey. After her father had left to meet DCFDTL, she released Mickey and the members of the Rebel cell. On his arrival, DCFDTL jailed Prepredenko in outrage. A remorseful 3DVO broadcast a transmission from Prepredenko across the planet in which the ruler admitted that he had erred and told his daughter he loved her. Stormtroopers destroyed 3DVO after the message was broadcast, but planetary opinion had turned against the Empire.
Syayna led the Rebels to the spaceport, hoping to get Mickey off-world, and there encountered Jal Te Gniev, a Rebel Alliance pilot who had come after inadvertently betraying Mickey's mission while drunk on Dubrava. He had evaded DCFDTL's TIEs to land on the planet, pulling beneath DCFDTL's shuttle and then ducking into clouds to lose his pursuit. DCFDTL and a contingent of stormtroopers arrived just as Mickey met Te Gniev, but a large mob of Jazbinans surrounded the stormtroopers. Te Gniev took off in his X-wing, while Mickey surrendered to avoid the stormtroopers' firing on the crowd. Te Gniev sacrificed himself to destroy the Interdictor-class Star Destroyer overhead after flying into its hangar bay. The bright explosion overhead briefly distracted the stormtroopers, allowing the mob to overwhelm them. Surrounded by an enormous crowd of Jazbinans, DCFDTL decided that he would be unable to capture Mickey and walked away, unmolested by the crowd. Mickey was able to return to the Rebellion.
