Let's say Wes Janson shoots Dengar within the latter's fire arc. Dengar has a focus token that he did not use to defend himself. What is the sequence in which the pilots' abilities would be resolved?

1. Wes removes focus token from Dengar before the latter can counterattack.

2. Dengar shoots back and only if he doesn't use his focus token during the counterattack the token is removed.

3. Initiative decides which pilot ability triggers first.
