They soon arrive for the second challenge, where they must escape the room. All the bounty hunters follow Obi-Wan and take no casualties. Obi-Wan correctly deduces that the escape route is beneath them, and using his helmet's filters, discovers the exit. However, the platforms continue to rise, threatening to crush the bounty hunters. The bounty hunters race to the rising platforms, believing that they will be safe from the poison if they stay high enough. Once they have been transferred into the Box, the contestants meet their first challenge: Dioxis gas seeping from the floor. Meanwhile, in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, Anakin Skywalker's suspicions about Obi-Wan are in the meantime confirmed by none other than Master Yoda himself, who apologizes for the deception but also makes it clear that due to Anakin's temper it would become too dangerous for Obi-Wan to involve himself in the mission. Unarmed, all of them are to face a life-and-death challenge in the Box, a huge floating structure designed by Eval and filled with deathtraps and only the first five survivors will be chosen for the task Dooku has in store for them, in return for a handsome reward. The participants already on site include some of the galaxy's most successful-and thus notorious- bounty hunters: Next to Bane and Obi-Wan's disguise template, this includes Embo, Derrown, Twazzi, Sixtat, Jakoli, Mantu, Kiera Swan, Sinrich, and Onca (whose brother was just moments before murdered by Bane for his hat). From the Count, Obi-Wan and Bane learn that a contest is about to take place, and the two of them are invited to participate.
The trio consisting of the disguised Obi-Wan, Moralo Eval, and Cad Bane arrives at Castle Serenno on Serenno, where the Count himself welcomes them, although the latter chastises Eval for his delay. " The disguised Obi-Wan accompanies Cad Bane and Moralo Eval to Serenno, where they enlist in a brutal competition with other bounty hunters from around the galaxy to determine who will participate in a plot to kidnap the Chancellor."
