Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith Page #9

The elevator stops. The door opens.

22.

INT. HANGAR

The Jedi are now back where they began. Both of their

starfighters still intact.

ANAKIN:

Here we are.

The three of them exit the elevator.

OBI-WAN KENOBI

It simply can’t be this easy.

ANAKIN:

Try and keep a positive outlook, Master.

(comlink)

Artoo, we’re here.

Artoo moves out into the open, rolls towards Anakin’sStarfighter.

Obi-Wan and Palpatine jog towards his ship when...

The main blast door opens, revealing General Grievous and

his two Bodyguards.

GENERAL GRIEVOUS

Leaving so soon, Jedi?

Anakin ignites his lightsaber, moves towards Grievous.

OBI-WAN KENOBI

Anakin, wait.

PALPATINE:

Is he always this forceful?

OBI-WAN KENOBI

I’m afraid so. Wait here, Chancellor.

Anakin is almost upon Grievous

GENERAL GRIEVOUS

(to his Bogyguards)

Kill him!

The Droid Bodyguards whirl their electro-staffs as theycharge Anakin.

Anakin grins, waits for them to get closer, then flips

over them.

ANAKIN:

Master!

23.

Obi-Wan is in front of the Bodyguards now.

OBI-WAN KENOBI

I’ve got them!

Obi-Wan fights the two Bodyguards.

Anakin is free to challenge Grievous.

ANAKIN:

You’re all mine, General.

GENERAL GRIEVOUS

(coughing)

Pitiful Jedi!

Grievous ignites two lightsabers and engages Anakin.

They take the fight inside the hangar.

Obi-Wan destroys the Droid Bodyguards within a few moves.

Anakin and Grievous are locked in mortal combat. The

Cyborg General is the weaker of the two, but he’s filledwith tricks.

As Anakin forces him against the wall, Grievous uses hisfeet claws and scales the wall.

ANAKIN:

Coward!

GENERAL GRIEVOUS

Come and get me, Jedi!

He gets his wish. Anakin uses the Force to toss a crate

at Grievous, knocking him down from the wall.

Grievous lands on top of a Vulture Droid, smashing it topieces.

ANAKIN:

You keep on running, Grievous...

Grievous scurries away like an insect using his four armsand two legs.

Anakin catches up to him, cutting off one arm.

Grievous doesn’t want to fight, he’s looking for an

escape.

ANAKIN:

There’s nowhere to run. I’m gonna take

the rest of your arms now!

24.

Grievous scales the wall again, this time squeezing intoan Exhaust Port, where he disappears.

OBI-WAN KENOBI

He’s gone, Anakin. We’ve got what wecame for, so let’s get out of here.

Anakin is frustrated, wanting so badly to finish off thedroid General.

OBI-WAN KENOBI

This ship is on its last leg. We best be

going.

Obi-Wan climbs into his Starfighter, taking Palpatine

with him. Anakin and Artoo get into their Starfighter.

Both Jedi take off as a random EXPLOSION rattles the bigCruiser’s hangar.
