Mission to Numidian Prime

The **Mission to Numidian Prime** was a mission undertaken by Jedi Master Dooku and his apprentice Qui-Gon Jinn to locate and capture the bounty hunter Shenda Mol on Numidian Prime.

## Prelude

##### Previous: ...

For 2 years Dooku and Qui-Gon Jinn had worked in an apprentice and master partnership, growing to work together with ease. Years prior during his own apprenticeship, Dooku had connected with the darkside of the force for the first time while on a mission to Asusto. While there he connected so deeply that he was able to unleash force lightning for the first time. Dooku continued to use this practice in secret however in moments of great anger.

Shenda Mol had grown to become one of the most notorious bounty hunters of her time, causing the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent individuals as collateral damage across 50 worlds. She would release bombs, viruses or use virtually any means necessary to capture her targets without thought of those who got in the way. By 66 BBY, Shenda had grown a small following who had followed her to Numidian Prime.

## Recount

##### Dooku attacks Shenda Mol

Qui-Gon and his master Dooku were both called in to help a strike team finally apprehend Shenda Mol while she was on Numidian Prime. The strike team was quickly able to apprehend her followers, bringing them into captivity. Shenda however escaped. Qui-Gon entered a pursuit on a speeder, telling Dooku to track him as he followed the target through the woodland. He dismounted his speeder, moving silently through the jungle to where he anticipated Shenda would be hiding. He was however caught in a trap where Shenda had been waiting for Qui-Gon. She caught him at the end of her rifle, telling him that she aimed to kill one individual from each age group up to 200, and was yet to kill someone who was 14. Qui-Gon was 14. Before she could attack Qui-Gon however, Dooku was overcome with anger and hatred to Shenda, unleashing his force lightning upon her, sending her into the underbrush. Dooku pushed into the bushes, hiding his attack from Qui-Gon's view. He then unleashed further force lightning onto Shenda, who was immediately brought into submission by the pain. Qui-Gon eventually brought himself to his feet, standing between Dooku and Shenda and ending the attack. Dooku found his senses, leaving to find the communique that had brought them to the planet while Qui-Gon guarded Shenda's shivering but alive body.

## Aftermath

##### Next: ...

Shenda Mol was arrested and brought into custody. Ultimately she was placed into capture on Stygeon Prime. The capture of the bounty hunter became a well known event. As a result of the violent acts his Master had performed, Qui-Gon contacted Rael Averross who had been residing in Maz's Castle on Takodana asking about his masters actions and his seeming obsession with prophecies of late. Rael's message to Qui-Gon was essentially a message to tell Qui-Gon to calm down.
