CC-5869, nicknamed "Stone," was a clone trooper commander in the Grand Army of the Republic. His unit was the Coruscant Guard, the protectors of Republic capital planet Coruscant. Around 22 BBY, Stone, some of his troops along with Gran Senator Kharrus and Gungan Representative Jar Jar Binks were sent to bring a ransom in form of spice to Weequay pirate leader Hondo Ohnaka who had captured Separatist leader Count Dooku. However, they were betrayed by one of Ohnaka's henchmen, Turk Falso, who let their shuttle shot down over Florrum, the planet of the Weequay pirates. The impact killed Senator Kharrus, along with the two pilots. Shortly after burying Kharrus, they were attacked by the pirates and retreated into one of the geysers. After the pirates left with the ransom, Binks suggested chasing the Weequays with help of the native Skalders. They were able to kill most of the pirates and recover the spice. The group then followed some energy lines to the pirate base. On the way there they encountered some pirate tanks and managed to subdue the gunners with the help of Binks. When they reached the pirate base, the count had already escaped and Stone his troops, Binks and Jedi Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, who were captured by the pirates too, left Florrum in the Twilight, the ship of the Jedi.

[edit] Biography
Stone was the nickname of one of the many clones born on Kamino to fight for the Galactic Republic. A clone trooper commander, Stone was part of the Coruscant Guard, a unit to protect the capital city of the Republic Coruscant.[1]
Around 22 BBY, Stone, along with some of his troops, Gran Senator Kharrus and Gungan Representative Jar Jar Binks was sent to the planet Florrum to bring a ransom in form of spice to Weequay pirate leader Hondo Ohnaka, who had captured Separatist leader and fallen Jedi Count Dooku. Unknowingly to the Republic, Jedi Knights Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker who were sent to proof the authenticity of the Count had been captured as well. However one of Ohnaka's minions Turk Falso wanted the spice for himself and cooperated with Barb Mentir, who was tasked to shut down the Republic shuttle.[2]
After contacting Chancellor Palpatine on Coruscant about the advance of their mission they entered Florrum's atmosphere. There they were ambushed by a Flarestar-class Weequay ship, piloted by Mentir. Also through Binks interference, the shuttle was shot down and they crashed in the Doshar fields. Surviving the impact, Stone, his troops and Binks began to search for Senator Kharrus. One trooper reported that the pilots were dead. Another one found Kharrus, who was also dead. While Binks and a clone trooper sergeant buried Kharrus, Stone ordered the other two troopers to repair the homing beacon. However they were unable to do this, and the geysers all around them were spitting out acid.[2]
