Contingency (A Bad Batch Fanfic Book 3)

Jedi Knight Aesaedii "Saedii" Synn is a prisoner. Captured by Darth Vader and the Empire, she's given a choice: serve as an Inquisitor or Omega will suffer the consequences. Any misstep, any failure and Omega's death will be on her head. But serving as an Inquisitor is nearly as dangerous as being hunted by them. Internal rivalries make every brother and sister an enemy. Pong Krell will go to any length to see her fail. And Kalth -- once her friend, now her captor -- seems to have an agenda of his own. Without the Bad Batch and the Clones, survival boils down to a choice: darkness or light. And in order to save her friend, Saedii may have to become what she hates the most. ~~~~~~~~~~ or: the ending of tbb season 2 wasn't sad enough, so i made it much worse first five chapters posted on August 1, 2025. cross-posted on ao3. completed April 3, 2026
