Chapter 1: "Lets Show em Who's Boss!"

"This Song goes out to the clones working in the Coruscant system, keep that planet safe boys." Said the Holographic Disk Jockey.

"Bah, those Coruscant clones have all the fun, there is more action there than out here." Complained Joker.

"Shut up already Joker, The Sergeant doesn't like whiners." Replied Nine.

Joker sighed and looked back at the Door, all he wanted to do was be on the Front Line, fighting the clankers. Not out monitoring Location after location, it was peace and quiet, something Joker always hated.

"SERGEANT ON DECK!" Yelled one clone Spontaneously, Startling Joker and Nine.

"At ease Soilders, Joker, may I have a word with you?"

"Whatever." Joker said with an annoyed Tone.

Joker and the Sergeant walked out onto the landing pad, where the Deck Sergeant was.

"CT-0956, why don't you head inside, I gotta speak to Joker."

"Yes Sir." Replied CT-0956.

"So, what's on your mind oh high mighty sergeant?"

"Very funny Joker, listen some of the boys have been complaining about you, saying things like "At this rate, the clankers are going to win." and "I could do Rex's Job better than him." Why are you saying these things." asked, politely, The Sergeant.

"Because I wanna be on the frontline, I wanna fight the droids! Not sit here and moniter this cold barren rock!" Yelled Joker.

"Calm down soldier." The Sergeant said, calming Joker down.

"Im sorry, its just, im not being used to my full potential, and I want destroy some droids is all."

"You know your orders Soldier." Said the Sergeant, patting Joker on the back.

The Sergeant looks up, and notices a meteor shower, in a panic, he orders the shield to be raised, and orders Joker inside.

<><><>

"Looks like the shower is letting up boys, CT-0956, do your job and scan for unknown life forms." Ordered the Sergeant.

CT-0956, nicknamed "Know-it-all" doesn't hesitate, He walks onto the deck platform and scans the area, and, as he thought, Nothing.

"Bah, im starting to agree with Joker, this is boring, ugh." Complains Know-it-all until something catches is eye.

"Now what is that?" Said Know-it-all.

Know-it-all scanned the area of where he saw a glistening light, and to much of his surprise, a droid Sniper who has him in his scopes, Know-it-all panics and runs into the building, right when the droid took his shot.

"Haha ya missed me Ya dumb clanker!" yelled Know-it-all.

Know-it-all runs into the building and immediately smashes the "Alert" button,   sirens blare, red lights flash, and the clones are annoyed.

"Know-it-all, whats going on now? The cold giving you shivers?" asks Nine, Nine laughs.

Before Know-it-all gets to answer, they hear an explosion.

"CT-0529 and CT-1865, go and check it out." Orders the Sergeant.

The clones rush downstairs, only to be cut down by blaster fire. The word "Droids" Echoes through the building.

"We are under attack soldiers! We need to defend this outpost! Get to the armory now, ill hold them off!" Yells the Sergeant.

"You heard him! lets move!" Yells Joker.

"This is what you wanted right Joker? To fight droids?" Asks Know-it-all.

The seven clones rush to the Armory, and grabs thermal detonators, Blaster Rifles, and even Sniper Rifles. The rush back to Reinforce the Sergeant, who himself has already killed 3 Commando Droids.

"Its 'Bout time you got here, they wont let up!" yells, jokingly, the Sergeant.

The clones and droids exchange fire for about 10 minutes before the droids inflict 2 casualties. The droid commando captain charges with his Vibroblade.

"Look out The droid is rushi- Ahhhh!" Yells CT-0372, right before getting his head sliced off.

"We need to fall back! Move move!" Franticly orders the Sergeant.

"Chase the clones down!" Orders the Droid Captain.

"Roger Roger." The other droids say in unison.

<><><>

The 5 clones retreat to the Starfighter Port. All the Fighters are being repaired. But a Fully operable Prototype LAAT Catches Jokers Eye.

"Alright men, we make our stand here! Lets Show em Who's Boss!" Yells the Sergeant, who is desperately trying to keep morale high.

As if on cue, and explosion hits the door, bursting it open, the clones rush for cover. Blasterfire rings out, CT-9751, Nicknamed "Noobie", the newest member of the Rhen Var surveillance team, just Blindfires, not wanting to get hit.

"Im out of ammo! " Yells The sergeant.

The sergeant stays in cover, and the when the Droid captain gets close, The Sergeant attacks, using his fists in melee combat. The Droid stabs him, and leaves him to bleed to death.

"The sergeant is down!" Yells Know-it-all

"There's too many of them, we gotta get out of here!" yells Noobie.

"This isn't good, this isn't good!" Yells Nine.

Joker looks back at the Prototype LAAT. He then Remembers that they have a Hyperspace Drive and Noobie, being the pilot he sorta is, knows about it too. Joker motions Nine and Noobie to run for it. Without hesitating, they run towards the LAAT, and then Noobie motions Joker and Know-it-all to follow, knowing Jokers plan. Noobie and Nine cover the Retreat, and when Joker and Know-it-all is onboard, they take off. Noobie, having been trained in the pilot Simulation with the intentions on being a pilot, Flies the Soldiers out of the base, and jumps into hyperspace, away from Rhen Var.

"Oh no, the Clones have Escaped." Says one Droid Commando.

"General Grievous is going to deactivate us." Says another.

"Don't worry, I have placed a Tracking Beacon on the Republic ship, we will be able to find them before they report the attack!" Says the Droid Captain.

<><><>

The LAAT comes out of hyperspace, light-years away from Rhen Var.

"Ugh, it feels like we have been in hyperspace for 5 years, where are we?" Complains Joker.

"I believe we are in space." Replies Know-it-all. Causing Nine to laugh.

"Ah hell, you two are hopeless. Noobie, where are we?"

"Hell if I know, but uhhhh. I see a planet in the distance, no separatist or Republic fleets surrounding it. Should I take us there?"

"Why not? I mean we just escaped a bloodbath and left our Sergeant to die, of course fly us there, that we can get eaten by Giant Womp Rats, or Rancors, or something."

"So is that a yes or no?"

"YES FLY US THERE!"

"Ok Joker calm down." Nine speaks up.

For 5 minutes the ride is silent, the clones saw their brethren die in front of them. None wanted to talk, Joker took his helmet off and shot a look at Nine, the look told Nine that Joker wanted to shoot himself.

"Uhhhh, Joker?"

"What is it?"

"Im getting close to the planet, but im losing control of the piloting, I think we are going to crash on the surface!"

"Ah hell, All right men, brace for impact!" Joker yells franticly.

The LAAT plummets to the surface, and just like that, Darkness comsumes the vision of the 4 clones.

<><><>

Celestia sits in her throne room, reading a letter Twilight sent to her about Friendship. When her sister calls her.

"My sister! I need  you up here immediately!" Calls out Princess Luna.

Celestia gets up and trots up the observatory tower, where her sister spent most of her time. Hearing the tone of her voice, Princess Celestia knew is was urgent.

"What is it Luna? Is something wrong?"

Luna hands a telescope to her sister and points at a specific region in the sky, right over Ponyville. Princess Celestia looks through the Telescope, and what she sees befuddles her. A white and red metallic object falling from the sky, heading for the Everfree Forrest.

"Luna........What is this? Is this your doing?" Asked Celstia.

"No sister, it is not, for I would never pull....whatever that thing is, out of the sky for no reason." Luna Answers.

"We better send word to Twilight Sparkle about this, no doubt when it lands, she will investigate. Luna, send a battalion of Guards to Ponyville." Celestia franticly orders.

"Yes my sister."

<><><>

"Well, what did you find?" Asks Grievous, after coughing.

"We found a Republic base, we nearly killed all the clones, but 4 escaped." Reported the Droid Captain.

"You incompetent fools!"

"Sir, wait! We placed a Tracking Beacon on the Ship they escaped in, after we take Rhen Var, we could go after them."

"Hmmm, maybe you aren't  a waste of credits after all....*cough cough*.....We will destroy them after we take Rhen Var. hehehe"

With that, Grievous Turns of the Holographic Communicator, and Prepares for the hunt...

Chapter 2: "What the....?"

Heavy breathing fills the now destroyed LAAT. Sounds of Anguish echo through the forest. Joker is the first to wake up, his vision is blurry, and blood is splattered on the inside of his helmet. He looks around, and sees Nine Suspended upside down by hanging wires, Know-it-all is lying on the floor, helmet cracked, and Noobie somehow managed to get himself stuck behind the pilot seat, the door to the cockpit is nowhere to be seen.

"Ugh.....Nine......You ok? Joker asks while trying not to cough up blood.

No answer. Joker puts on his helmet, the blood impairs his vision. Joker gets up, and coughs 3 times, he starts walking towards Nine, but he trips on Know-it-all.

"Ahhh, ow." Pain fills Jokers body. The crash must've chipped his bones.

After getting up and kicking Know-it-all, Joker walks over to Nine and cuts him down, Nine falls and upon hitting the ground, Nine wakes up.

"Uhhh,oww what the hell!" Yelled Nine.

"Sorry Nine, had to get you down somehow."

"hmph."

Joker, instead of worrying about Know-it-all, walks over to the cockpit, and immediately starts trying to pull Noobie out from behind the Seat. Noobie is already awake.

"Hi, you mind not ripping my arm off? Thanks." Noobie said, oblivious to any pain he has.

"Ahhh shut the hell up Noobie."

After 3 minutes of pulling, Joker finally frees Noobie.

"So Noobie, how did you get stuck." Joker asked.

"I...I don't know just woke up here." Noobie said, causing Nine to laugh.

"Well, are you injured?" Asked Joker.

"No, I don't feel any pain, but are you alright, I see blood on your helmet."

"Im, Ugh....Fine." Joker says, right as a sharp pain hits him in his side.

Noobie looks over Jokers shoulder, and sees Nine trying to revive Know-it-all.

"Joker, maybe you should go help Nine, Know-it-all is still unconscious." Suggests Noobie.

"Oh him, id rather drag him then listen to him." Joker admits.

"I got him up!" Yelled Nine, oblivious to what Joker had said.

"He...Hey! We're alive!" Joyfully said Know-it-all.

"No duh." Said Nine.

Joker tunes out his comrades, and looks at the damaged LAAT door. He walks over to it, and pushes on it.

"Hrrrgh, Noobie....Nine...  Hrruuuuu.... Help me push this.... Hrggggh... Thing out of the way!" Ordered Joker.

"Since when did you become Commander Cody?" Asked Nine as he walks over to the door.

After five minutes of pushing, the door finally becomes loose and falls off, revealing what Joker had feared, a forest.

"Great. Just great! Lost in the middle of nowhere, on some neutral planet that could be hostile to outsiders. Can our lives get any better?" Screams Joker.

"Never seen Joker this mad since he was turned down for Delta Squad, heck Sev nearly gave Joker a bloody nose when he went on a rant about how useless they were going to be without him." Know-it-all said to Noobie.

"I CAN HEAR YOU, BASTARD!"

Know-it-all and Joker start arguing and finally, after a half hour, finally come to an impasse.

"Fine, fine, can we just get out here, this forest is menacing."  Know-it-all submits.

"Hmph, fine, grab the blasters Noobie, if they are salvageable, and grab some Communication Devices if you can, these LAAT's always have spare parts." Orders Joker.

"Yes sir."

<><><>

"Sooo, how far is this...flying object?" asks Rainbow Dash.

"I can still see the smoke, so I have to estimate its in the Everfree Forest. Not far from the edge id wager." Twilight replys.

"I  wonder if its aliens, ooooh maybe they would like a party, maybe I should go and buy cake, ooh no, CUPCAKES!!!!!!!!" Exclaimed Pinke Pie, who somehow managed to appear on the top of a chimney, she was standing next to Twilight three seconds ago after all.

"I highly doubt its aliens, probably just a fallen star or something." Twilight says.

Twilight, having already received a letter from her mentor, Princess Celestia, and a violent explosion that followed it, has gathered her friends, and currently waiting for the battalion of guards to arrive.

"Are ya sure what she said was true? A red and white metallic object fallin' from the sky? Unless it was a Pegasus, then it is probably nothin." Applejack questions, not sure of  what the princess had saw.

"She wrote that she is pretty sure of what she saw." Twilight said, very sure of what her mentor had written.

A loud noise breaks the conversation into silence, scaring Fluttershy into cowering behind some bushes.

"Fluttershy, its alright, whatever it is, we can take them!" Rainbow Dash said, trying to calm down Fluttershy, as she is shivering uncontrollably.

"Come on ponies, we need to investigate, Fluttershy, if you wanna stay behind go ahead." Twilight decides.

"N...No...Its alright... Ill come with you girls."

"Ok."

"As much as I would love to walk around in a....forest, but shouldn't we wait for the guard?" Rarity said, as if trying to avoid walking into the Everfree.

"We should go anyway, the guards will catch up. We need to see if it is evil or not, if it is anything." Twilight said.

With that said, the 6 ponies begin their foray into the Everfree Forest.

<><><>

"Ha..haha Sir, I was able to salvage 2 DC-17 Hand Blasters and 1 DCA-15A Blaster Rifle. I was also able to get a Message of Rescue into the LAAT communication, amazingly, they still work! The message should reach Republic space in 5 days." Noobie reported.

"Good Job soldier, ill take the DCA-15A Blaster Rifle, Nine can have one hand blaster, and Noobie, you can have the other one." Joker decided.

"Hey what about me?" Asked Know-it-all.

"You can go to hell." Joker remarked.

Know-it-all trys to say something, but all that comes out is a grunt. Strange Noises, and howling catches the ear of the clones.

"What the hell was that?" Noobie asked, worrying for his own safety.

"I don't know, Soldiers, remember training? Bravo Formation Code 45G19...NOW!" Ordered Joker.

"Joker I gotta talk to you about your leadership problem, but for now, lets escape death...ok?" Know-it-all said as he hid in the LAAT.

"I GOT MOVEMENT!" Yelled Nine.

"They are Surrounding us!" Noobie said as he panicked.

"Stay in formation." Joker ordered.

The clones could see green eyes, and wolf-like shapes in the darkness, the got closer, and closer, till they attacked.

"CONTACT, LIGHT EM UP!" Joker yelled!

Without second thought, The clones shoot the figure charging at them, Noobie overheats his Hand Blaster within three seconds. The creature drops dead within 4 seconds.

"Ha, got him!"

"Don't get cocky yet Nine, I see 3 more!" Yelled Joker.

The creatures just watch the clones, and the clones watch them, they exchange looks for 2 minutes before the creatures charge.

"FIRE FIRE!"

The clones fire with out end, dropping the wolf-like creatures instantly.

"Ha, we are alive! WE DID IT!" Celebrated Joker.

"It seems you have." Know-it-all said, as he cowered.

Noobie investigates the creatures.

"Hmph, Joker, you wont believe this, but these creature are made out of wood."

"Hmmm, I guess that explains why they broke into pieces."

"Well they didn't scare me." Nine said as he walks over the corpses.

Nine looks over at Know-it-all, Nine, and Joker, who seemed to be looking up.

"What are ya looking at guys?"

"That."

Know-it-all points up, and Nine looks up,revealing that those creatures, with there wooden parts, created a much larger creature, that is staring down at him.

"Hmmmm, right.... ummmm.... Boy uhh... RUUUUN!" Nine yelled, and with that, the clones take off, with the wooden creature in full pursuit.

"What the Hell is that thing????" Nine yelled as he ran.

"For once, I DONT KNOW!" Yelled Know-it-all, Know-it-all, with a crack in his helmet impairing his vision, runs into a tree.

"Know-it-all!" Nine yells.

Nine and Noobie and stop running, causing Joker to stop and help Know-it-all as well, as much as he hates him.

"Nine, help Know-it-all up, Noobie, shoot that thing!"

Joker and Noobie fires at the Giant creature. Noobie gets a lucky shot and a blaster round hits the eyes of the creature, blinding it, and knocking it to the ground, breaking it into pieces.

"KEEP YOUR SIGHTS TRAINED ON IT!  IT MIGHT REBUILD!"

"I got Know-it-all up! Watch where ya going next time!"

"Sorry, my helmet is cracked, probably from the crash."

All four clones look at the at the supposedly dead animal, but the wood was gone, not a trace of it.

"Its...Gone?" Know-it-all asked.

"I think we either killed it, or chased it off, either way, we need to return to the LAAT wreckage, make sure Noobie set up the SOS beacon properly, and get out of here before those things return." Joker said.

"Agreed." The other clones said simultaneously.

<><><>

Twilight and her friends are walking towards the smoke, when loud noises, and yelling catches their ears.

"Whats the noise?" Rainbow Dash asks.

"FIRE FIRE" is heard in the distance.

"Sounds like fighting, maybe the guards are already here?" Twilight suggests.

"Ah don't know, doesn't sound like anypony ive ever 'eard." Applejack says.

"Lets check it out, MAYBE IT IS ALIENS, im telling you they would love cupcakes." Pinkie Said, rushing towards the smoke.

Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, and Rarity chase after Pinkie, and when they catch up to her, what they see is astonishing.

"Woah, that looks cool!" Rainbow Dash says as she gets closer for a better look.

"I...is it D-d-dangerous?" Fluttershy inquires.

"I don't think so, OW... Look out for broken glass." Twilight says, after stepping on tiny pieces of glass.

Twilight and her friends investigate it. Finding nothing dangerous about it, aside from broken glass everywhere.

"Whoever, or whatever was here is gone now. We should head back and get the guard to further investigate this....thing. Its too dangerous here." Twilight decides.

<><><>

Joker, Nine, Noobie, and Know-it-all, rush back to the wreckage. Joker, knowing Noobie, has to make sure he set up the SOS properly.

"Hey, men hold up!" Joker said quietly.

"What is it?" Asked Noobie.

"I see something moving around the wreckage." Joker said.

"Must be another one of those things." Know-it-all said.

"Ok, on the count of 3, we rush them."

"1"

"2"

"3...GO!"

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!" Yells the clones, except Know-it-all, who instead just watches, seeing how he in unarmed.

Joker leads the charge, Nine and Noobie follow. But instead what they find are six equine-like colorful creatures.

"What the....?" Joker Said.

Chapter 3: "I must be in a Simulation."

The Guards are standing at the entrance of the Everfree. Wondering where Twilight and her friends are.

"Bah, where the hell is Twilight?" Asks one guard.

"I don't know, but the Lieutenant is getting impatient." Says another.

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!" echoes through the forest.

"Republic? whats that?" Asks the Medic.

"Something you wouldn't understand, you slow witted maniac," Lieutenant Iron Gut says.

"Well, whatever. That voice didn't sound like pony though." Private Spear Point says.

"Your right, we have to investigate that voice, What if Twilight and her friends are in there right now?" Lieutenant Iron Gut said.

"Well, what are we waiting for? LETS MOVE!" Yelled one guard.

The guards rush towards to smoke. Hoping that Twilight is already there.

<><><>

The clones just stare at the Equine-Like creatures in front of them. The clones exchange glances with each other. Know-it-all steps out from behind the bushes.

"This is....Interesting. Colorful Horses with Horns, Wings, and OH! Look at that one, it has a hat on!" Know-it-all Gleefully Says.

"Know-it-all stay back, those things could be dangerous." Joker orders.

"I don't think they're dangerous, In fact, they look adorable! Ahahaha!" Nine Laughs.

"That's just you Nine, Noobie, what do you think." Joker says, turning to Noobie.

"Can we just check the SOS and get outta here! They are just alien horses." Noobie yells.

"Your right, Nine, keep an eye on them, Know-it-all, I don't care what you do. Noobie, your with me." Joker orders.

"I must be in a Simulation." Joker quietly says to himself.

<><><>

Twilight and her friends just stare at The creatures in front of her. three aliens. Now a fourth one just popped up out of some bushes.

"This is....Interesting. Colorful Horses with Horns, Wings, and OH! Look at that one, it has a hat on!" An alien says, this alien was different because it has Red Stripes on its skin. Twilight cant bring up any words to say on whats happening, and from what she sees on the facial expressions on her friends, Rainbow Dash looks ready for a fight, same as Applejack, Rarity is just plain speechless, Pinkie Pie is Happy, but that's normal, and Fluttershy is scared, Buts that normal too.

"Your right, Nine, keep an eye on them, Know-it-all, I don't care what you do. Noobie, your with me." The alien in the middle, whom Twilight Suspected to be the leader, said.

'How are their mouths not moving? You need a mouth to speak.' Twilight Thought. The one whom she assumed to be "Nine" was standing right in front of her. Look down at her, holding a small metal log, or was it a stick. Howls surround the area.

"Ahhh HELL! JOKER! THOSE THINGS ARE RETURNING!" "Nine" Says.

"What? They must be in larger number! Hold them off we are almost done." The one Twilight assumed to be "Joker", said.

"Know-it-all, do you think we could ride those horses out of here?" One of the aliens said, the only one that's different is the one with an extended face, and red stripes on its skin.

"No, they look too small, we could crush them!" The one whom Twilight suspected to be Know-it-all.

"Great, the one time I depended on your Thoughts." Says one alien leaving the Metallic object.

"What in tarnation is goin on Here?!!!?? What are ya?" Applejack spontaneously yelled.

The four aliens look at Applejack.

"What the hell!!! Did that one just speak?!" Yelled the lead alien.

<><><>

"I THINK IT DID! BUT WE DONT HAVE TIME FOR THAT, WE GOT WOOD PREDATORS TO FIGHT!" Yelled Noobie, wanting to save his own skin.

"HELL, KNOW-IT-ALL, GET THOSE HORSES IN THE LAAT WRECKAGE, I NEED TO TALK THOSE HORSES, IF THEY DO TALK! THE REST OF YOU, WHISKEY FROMATION CODE 56D98 SPARK!" Joker yelled.

The clones get in formation, but after the last encounter, Noobie is shaking uncontrollably.

"Joker, through my scanner, I see 20 of those things! They are circling around!" Know-it-all reports.

"Alright men, fight to your last breath!" Jokers orders.

As if on cue, the creatures attack. Joker gets tackled by the first one.

"Ahhh, BASTARD!" Yells Joker.

Since the creatures are made of wood, Joker trys a new tactic. Joker starts ripping away at the face of the predator, tearing it to pieces within seconds. It wont stay like this for long though. So he starts throwing the pieces in different directions while trying to stay alive.

"IF THEY POUNCE ON YOU, TEAR AWAY AT THEM!" Joker yells.

"Joker, Im reading 15 other creatures entering the area, they are similar to the these horses!" Know-it-all says through the radio.

"THANKS FOR THE INTEL, BUT IM DEALING WITH MY OWN PROBLEMS KNOW-IT-ALL-BASTARD!" Joker Yells through the radio.

Know-it-all looks towards the 6 horses who look worried, probably for their own safety. He remembers what the one with the hat did. 'Speak' thought Know-it-all.

"Listen, I don't know if you speak, maybe it was a delusion me and my friends and Joker shared. But what the hell are these things?" Know-it-all asked.

The Rainbow mane one looked confused about all this, then spoke up.

"What are you?" It asked in retaliation.

Know-it-all couldn't concentrate, there was blaster fire, yelling, etc. He looked at the Purple Horned Horse. Know-it-all learned back in his childhood simulation days, about the mythical unicorn. He was quiet excited to speak to one himself though.

"What the hell are these things I reiterate." Know-it-all, says.

The purple unicorn looks hesitant, but it knows that it doesn't have much choice, it speaks up.

"They are Timber Wolves, deadly creatures of the Everfree Forest." It says

"An Explanation, finally!" Know-it-all says.

"Know-it-all, need you out here! NOW!" Joker yells

Know-it-all crawls out of the LAAT and notices immediately that the attack has halted.

"Sir, Joker, these things are called Timber Wolves." Know-it-all says.

"Yay, now I know something ya damn bastard!" Joker retaliates.

Joker looks back at a set of trees. The so called "Timber Wolves" are staring at the top, and one by one, they run off.

"Know-it-all, quit boring me and scan those trees, those, what did you call it? "Timber Wolves"? Weren't scared by us, but something scared them off." Joker orders.

"Sure thing Our great champion of droids, Savior of the republic, Hero of all clonekind, Killer of count doo-" Know-it-all gets cut off.

"Spare me the sarcasm and MOVE!" Joker brushed off.

Nine just snickers at the whats going on. Nine turns around to see those alien talking horses watching Joker and Know-it-all. Nine smiles under his helmet, such cute animals, and a hostile world. Nine wonders where their owners are.

"Anything?" Noobie asks.

"Yeaaaahhhhh, ummmm there are armored horses in those trees, they are watching us right now, maybe about to ambush us." Know-it-all says very loud while looking through the scanner.

<><><>

Knowing their position has been compromised. Lieutenant Iron Gut orders the soldiers down, and in defense formation. They heard the white creatures talking their language, which was a surprise that the ponies never saw coming.

"Don't try anything alien, do anything stupid and you wont leave the Everfree alive!" Yells Lieutenant Iron Gut.

The aliens look at each other, then laugh.

"I guess im not crazy, the horses do talk." the alien in the middle says.

"Heh, im still wondering how are they going to kill us with their spears." The alien on the right said.

"Lets just get out of here, those "Timber wolves" might return.....again."Orders One clone with a bloody head.

"Your friends are in the LAAT, why don't you go and get them outta there." Says one alien towering over them, which red stripes on its skin and an extended face.

The soldiers look at each other. The aliens are obviously not attacking them yet, so they might be friendly. But best not to take any chance. Lieutenant Iron Gut motions the Medic to go and help Twilight and her friends, and run to intercept the aliens.

"Halt!" Yells Private Spear Point.

"Uh, these alien soldier horses are getting annoying, why don't we put a blaster round in their heads and be down with it." Asks one alien. This intimidates Spear Point.

"Do you wanna be the start of another galactic war? I didn't think so. We can barely handle the droids, we don't need to fight horses." Bloody Head said.

<><><>

"Lets just play along for now, maybe we can meet the owners of these alien horses. Maybe the tail-heads, or Biths." Joker said.

"Yeah, I like the idea of peace." Nine said.

"I don't." Noobie says.

Know-it-all doesn't say anything, but he knows, that for now, Jokers word is law. So he slowly raises his hands.

"Bastard." Know-it-all says to Joker.

Chapter 4: The fate of the Sergeant.

"Lets Show em Who's Boss!"  Yells the Sergeant, who is desperately trying to keep morale high.

As if on cue, and explosion hits the door, bursting it open, the clones rush for cover. Blasterfire rings out, CT-9751, Nicknamed "Noobie", the newest member of the Rhen Var surveillance team, just Blindfires, not wanting to get hit.

"Im out of ammo! " Yells The sergeant.

The sergeant stays in cover, and then when the Droid captain gets close, The Sergeant attacks, using his fists in melee combat. The Droid stabs him, and leaves him to bleed to death.

"The Serg-"

The Sergeant, nicknamed "Sarge", can watch as the clones retreat to a Prototype LAAT. Then, Nothing.

<><><>

The Sergeant wakes up, in the same place where he was stabbed, amazingly, he hasn't died from blood loss yet. The Sergeant looks around, No droids, No Prototype LAAT, the Sarge then remembers.

"The lucky bastards escaped." Sarge says.

The sound of clanking feet catches the ears of Sarge, they get closer, Sarge gets up and limps towards the door, they get closer, hoping he could take out the droid and grab its blaster, they get closer, The door opens, revealing a Commando Droid.

"Nothing to report here." It says.

The Droid looks around, before noticing the missing body of Sarge.

"Hey, where did that body go?" The droid says.

Sarge sneaks up behind the droid, and then, after a couple minutes of struggling, rips its head off.

"Heh, I could use a souvenir." Sarge says, Picking up the blaster, and, for better or for worse, takes the head with him.

The Sarge starts down the Hallway. Sarge hopes that he can sneak past the droids that most certainly patrolling the now Sith outpost.

<><><>

After avoiding 5 Droids already, Sarge finally comes across the Medical Bay. He enters and looks around, Sarge knows he doesn't have time for a Bacta Injection, so he looks around for the ingestible substitute. After looking around, he finally finds it, Bactade, the new type of Bacta, Bad taste, but great at healing wounds. Sarge, after a bit of hesitation, gulps down the Bactade.

"Bleh, chalky." Sarge silently complains.

Sarge feels the pain of the stab wound fading, then the wound itself fading.

"Ahhhh, muuuuuch better." He says.

"-eah, your right, lets just go check on Unit 627. His wont respond to the captains Communications." Says a deep, droidy voice.

Sarge realizes that the commando droids are realizing that they are missing a Unit. The clanking of feet goes past the medical door. After 2 minutes of hesitation, the Sarge walks into the corridor, Sarge looks around to make sure the coast is clear. Sarge makes his way to the exit, hopefully with no encounters. Sarge looks at the droid head he is holding. All he can feel is satisfaction.

After five minutes of avoiding, hiding, and walking, Sarge finally arrives at the exit.

"Hey! Stop right there!" Yells A voice.

Sarge turns around to see two droids aiming their blasters at him.

"We heard of a missing clone body, you must be that body, or you will be!" Yells Droid 1.

"Hey, why are you talking to me like that?" Sarge says, hoping to trick the droids into thinking he is a droid.

Know-it-all told Sarge about commando droids, it was boring, but looks like its paying off. Commando Droids can fit in Clone Armor easily, and they can Change their voices to sound like clones.

"Ummm, because your a clone."

"No, im a droid."

The droids look at each other, and lower their weapons slightly.

"Whats your Unit Number?" Asks Droid 2.

"I don't remember, my data file is corrupted." Sarge says.

"Oh, ok, but why are you holding Unit 627's Head?"

Sarge looks at it. Then looks at the droids.

"Oh him, I found him like this, I was looking for the captain, see what he was going to do with his head."

"Hmph, Unit 627 was always clumsy. The captain is in the Armory. Come on Unit 256, lets get back to patrol."

"Roger Roger."

The Droids walk off. Sarge sighs with relief.

"It worked." Sarge says.

With that, Sarge walks out onto the Platform, where a droid transport has landed. The Droid Pilot Is walking around the platform. Sarge sneaks past the droid and boards the transport. Sarge walks into the cockpit and sits down. Droid Technology was always more complex than Republic, But Noobie taught Sarge about Piloting ships, was boring as well, but now its going to pay off.

"Ok the basics, that's all I need to know. What was it again?" Sarge asks himself.

Sarge starts clicking random buttons. After hitting 5 buttons, The Ship takes off.

"This will attract attention. Okay, now steer with the? What was it!!!!???" Sarge Panics.

Sarge finds the controls and steers the transport out of the atmosphere.

<><><>

"Sir! Sir! A clone just stole my ship!" Yells the droid pilot.

"You morons. That was a clone, not a droid!" Scolds the Captain.

"We thought he was a droid, he had Unit 627's head, we said he was coming to you to talk about what to do with it"

"He Didn't Show up!" Yells the captain.

<><><>

"Hmmmm, this isn't as hard as it looks. This is kinda fun." Sarge Laughs.

"This is CT-9751, Im part of a Rhen Var Surveillance team. It was attacked by droids and there are four survivors. We are trapped on a unknown Planet, We need Evac. This Message Repeats." The Com blurted out.

"CT-9751? Noobie!" Sarge joyfully says.

Know-it-all Taught Sarge how to track signals, by signal strength. That wasn't boring. Sarge started steering left, Signal Strength lowered. He steered right, Strength Returned.

"Hmmm, Looks like they are nearby. Alright guys, don't worry, Evac is on the way." Sarge says.

Chapter 5: "Ok, Fine."

The clones walk down a path, following whom they assume to be the leader of these armored horses, occasionally getting jabbed by a spear. Know-it-all looks over to the six not-in-armor horses. Colorful, something that gave Know-it-all peace. A pink horses that's bouncing up and down as it moves. A rainbow mane Pegasus flying a few meters off the ground. And a Orange Horse with that hat. 'Fascinating.' Thought Know-it-all.

"So, how far until we are out of this deathtrap of a forest, talking animal?" Asks Joker.

Joker gets a glare, not only from the horses, but he can also feel glares coming from his fellow clones.

"Not much farther, hopefully though I wont have to listen to some alien who understands our language. Now if you would please shut your non-existent mouth." Says the Lead Horse.

"Ugh, don't need to be hostile." Nine says.

"And we have mouths, you just cant see them." Know-it-all budged in.

No response. The Armored horses Let the clones keep their blasters, but they don't know what they do, so its kinda understandable.

Although the Spear Horses kept their spears mostly trained on Nine, Noobie, and Joker, Know-it-all was unarmed, so he had one spear trained on him.

<><><>

Finally, after hours of walking, the clones and horses finally come to the exit of the forest. Joker cant help but think what they are going to do when they ever get where they are going. Or what their masters are going to do. Joker looks over to Know-it-all, expecting an answer for whats going on. Know-it-all looks over at Joker.

"Your the one who said we had to go back to the crash, you got us into the mess, you get us out." Know-it-all said.

"No talking, your giving me a headache." Orders the leading golden armor-clad horse. Joker and Know-it-all gets jabbed by a spear

Joker looks over at the horse, then back at Know-it-all.

"When we get to where we are going, your dead." Joker whispered.

<><><>

Lieutenant Iron Gut led the way, the aliens behind started talking.

"No talking, your giving me a headache." He orders.

They listen. For the next 15 minutes, all Is silent. Private Spear Point decides to speak up, being the open minded pony he his, he wouldn't mind speaking to aliens, especially if they speak his language, and haven't wounded him in any way yet.

"In regards to your last question, we are going to Ponyville, there you will wait for the princesses to arrive, and they will deal with you, and stop calling us horses. Were ponies, and we would like to be called tha-"

"Private Spear Point SHUT THE HELL UP!" Iron Gut yells.

Silence again, Iron Gut turns around and looks at his battalion, and the six mares, and four aliens. They are all staring at him, the timid looking yellow Pegasus is cowering behind the medic. Iron Gut sighs.

"And this was to be a simple recon mission." Iron Gut mumbles under his breath.

<><><>

The group of aliens, soldiers, and civilians, excluding Twilight of course, approach Ponyville. The streets are bustling with activity, but, no bipedal aliens. Joker is confused

"Where are your masters?" He asks.

"You mean "Princesses"? They are up in Canterlo-" Replies a soldier, he gets cut off by Joker.

"Never mind, forget I asked, ill learn sooner or later wont I?" Joker says.

As they approach the town, the activities, including chatting, buying/selling, and reading a plaque on a statue, ends. And a new activity of staring at aliens and soldiers begin.

"What a lively town, Oh how I wish I could be a ghost, then I could spectate these ponies and their daily chores and the like all day long." Know-it-all thinks out loud,

"Yeeeeaaaah, lets keep that between you, me, Joker, Noobie, this battalion of ponies, and the string of Kamino Simulations that wont be able to help your thoughts now." Nine says.

The ponies, and aliens walk up to a big tree. Joker is close enough to knock on it, so he knocks on it, hollow.

"So what are you going to lock us up in there?" Joker asks.

"Kinda like that, Iron Gut, you sure you wanna do this?" The pony who was called "Spear Point" said.

"Im sure, Twilight and her friends can look after these things till the Princesses arrive." "Iron Gut" Said. Joker wondered why all the stupid names. He dared not to ask though.

"Alright, then Twilight, you and your friends are responsible for these aliens till the Princesses arrive." "Spear Point" said.

"Umm ok, what are you guys gonna do?" "Twilight" asked.

"We are going to bring the princesses here, should just be a couple hours. Insult these things, we don't care, just make sure they don't go on a rampage and take over the world. Ok?" Iron Gut said.

"Seems easy enough." Twilight said.

With that, the soldiers leave, Joker, Nine, Know-it-all, and Noobie, walk into the hollowed out tree. Know-it-all immediately collapses from what he sees inside.

"Books! BOOKS! hahaha! and I thought this place would be boring!" Know-it-all yells, Know-it-all immediately  stands up and grabs a book and starts reading.

"Umm, make yourself at home I guess?" Twilight says.

"Oh I WILL!" Know-it-all exclaimed.

"Well, this is too weird for me, I'm gonna go, someplace not here." A cyan Pegasus says.

"Yeah, I got a party to plan for the White Skinned aliens." A pink pony runs up to Nine and somehow grabs onto his armor.

"What type of cake do you like, ooooh or how many cakes would you like? WAIT NO LEMME GUESS, IM GOOD AT GUESSING. Uhhh, Strawberry, 17, Chocolate, 9? Ooooh how about Red Velvet, Negative 15? IM GONNA GO BAKE ONE RIGHT NOW. After I feed Gummy." The pink pony jumps off of Nine, knocking him to the ground, the Pink Pony flies through the door, smashing into a distant ponies cart. A "Hey, you break it, ya buy it." is heard.

Nine sits there, on the ground, the look on his face in something Joker would like to see.

"Don't mind Pinkie Pie, She always like that, just don't be expecting no cake though." Twilight says.

"Well, that whole experience was.....something.... If you'll excuse me, I've got to go and take a bath now." Says a prissy White unicorn.

"Yeah and ah am pretty sure ma family is worried sick 'bout me. So if you'll excuse me" Says the Orange Pony with a hat.

"And...ummm.... Im pretty sure angel Is errr, hungry. So I gotta go, that is if you want me to leave, I could stay a bit longer if you want." The timid pony says.

Joker cocks his head and looks at Twilight.

"Yes Fluttershy you can leave." Twilight says.

Fluttershy darts out the door. Then Twilight shuts the door.

"Heh, sorry about Pinkie Pie knocking over your friend." Twilight says.

"Who were those ponies?" Joker said. Ignoring what she said.

"Well, of course you know of Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie. The other Pegasus was Rainbow Dash, the Other Unicorn was Rarity. The Orange pony was Applejack. Now you know, now please make sure your friend is alright, I think he is dead, heheh. Uh heh." Twilight Nervously said.

Joker looks at Nine, he is still on the ground, frozen in place. Joker thinks he is traumatized.

"So anyway, your being a nice "Hostess-" Joker said as he was cut off by a voice.

"Twilight, whats going on down here, im trying to sle-" A little baby dragon says as he trudges downstairs. He stares at Joker.

"Umm Twilight. What is that Thing?" The dragon says as he points.

"Spike, its not nice to point, especially at guests. This is uhhhh." Twilight says, basically asking for Joker name.

"I am CT- 8750, Nicknamed "Joker". This is CT-7934, Nicknamed "Nine", This is CT-0956, Nicknamed "Know-it-all". And this is CT-9751, Nicknamed "Noobie". Joker said.

"Umm, this is Joker, Nine, Know-it-all, and Noobie." Twilight looked back at Spike.

"Right.... Im gonna go back to bed...." "Spike" said. Spike slowly walked, backwards, upstairs. Not taking his eyes off of Joker.

"Well, since we are here, I would like to be the first to say thank you." Twilight said, after an awkward silence.

"For what?" Asks Noobie.

"Yeah yeah, Ill get on it in a minute, I just wanna finish this book on.... Stuff." Know-it-all said.

Everyone in the room, excluding Nine as he is still traumatized, looked at Know-it-all.

"Right, now.. Thanks for what?" Noobie asked again.

"For, saving our lives earlier, If you aliens didn't come by, we would be Timber Wolf chow." Twilight said.

"Please, those soldiers would've saved you." Noobie said as he sat down next to Know-it-all. He started reading what he was reading, though at a slower pace.

"Hmph, well, the Princesses will be here in a few hours, so just get comfortable, I gotta go and talk to the others." Twilight said as she left.

"Ok, Fine." Joker said as he knelt next to Nine, who was still traumatized.

<><><>

Several hours pass as they wait, Know-it-all has made 5 piles of read books, and Noobie is sleeping next to the piles. Nine sits in the exact same place where he fell, but this time awake, and staring at a Red Velvet, Strawberry, Chocolate mix cake. Joker sits there, patting Nine on the back, occasionally getting the end of an elbow to his helmet, When the door opens, Revealing Twilight and the other five ponies, Know-it-all took time out of his reading to Tell Joker, Noobie and Nine what gender of the Ponies they are, four golden armor-clad Ponies with raised swords, and Two Winged and Horned Ponies.

"Now, lets discuss what you are." Asks the White pony with a Sun on her Flank.

Chapter 6: Reunion

*Cough cough cough*

"So...*cough* Whats the status on tracking down those clone survivors?" Grievous asks.

"Well, uhhhh, we haven't made any progress yet, we have hit a................setback." The captain says.

"What?! What setback? What has happened!?" Grievous furiously asks.

"Ummmm, during the battle, I stabbed a clone. Long story short, He wasn't dead and Unit 627 is, and we are down one transport." The captain nervously said.

"You stabbed a clone and you DIDNT MAKE SURE HE DIED? HE KILLED ONE OF YOUR MEN AND STOLE YOUR TRANSPORT?" Grievous asks with much rage. Grievous smashes the droid next to him.

The droid captain knods.

"Tell me the good news." He asks.

"Well, we can track the ship, as well as the tracking beacon we placed on that LAAT." The droid says.

"Hmph, when you get up here, I will deal with you." Grievous says.

"But sir! WAIT!" The droid manages to say before Grievous turns off the holoprojector.

<><><>

Sarge clicks several buttons on the ship. Hoping something would tell him about that Planet he is heading for.

"Hmph, Nothing." He says.

"Well,  whatever that planet is called, the Signal is coming from there, time to land." He said.

As he gets closer to the planets atmosphere, the controls start to shut off, then, Falling.

"Whaaaaatttt theeee Heeeeeelllllllll!!!!" Sarge yells.

Darkness.

<><><>

Lieutenant Iron Gut and his Squad begin to carry out their orders. Orders given from Princess Celestia herself.

"You two! Secure the Perimeter, I don't want any Timber Wolves or, Celestia forbid, Ursa Majors getting through. Once you've secured our perimeter, Report back. Spear Point, Head into that....thing and see what on inside, me and the others we will keep an eye out." Lieutenant Iron Gut orders. Spear Point, and the other 2 Guards Salute and start moving.

Just after 2 minutes, a loud Explosion is heard. The medic ducks for cover.

"ITS THE APOCALYPSE, EXPLOSIONS FALLING FROM THE SKY!" He yells.

After 10 seconds, he looks over to see Iron Gut smirking, and Spear Point Rolling all over the ground, laughing like crazy, the other soldiers are laughing like there was no tomorrow. The medic grunts and gets back up.

"Ok settle down soldiers, so the medic freaked out, we can laugh behind his back later, which we will do. For now, lets go check out that explosion." Iron Gut says.

The soldiers listen, and start trotting in the Explosions Direction.

"Can this day get any worse?" Iron Gut mutters.

<><><>

Sarge wakes up, five feet from the cockpit, and the ship. His vision is blurry. Surprisingly, his helmet, and armor, has not sustained any damage. After a couple minutes, he regains his eyesight and hearing. He gets up and looks over at the ship.

"Huh, I must've somehow went right through the hull, how the hell. Whatever, weirder things have happened to me." Sarge says. He walks over to the Ship.

"Man, my souvenir, destroyed." Sarge, disappointedly said. He Looks over at the blaster.

"At least its intact." He said as he picked it up.

To make sure its fully intact, Sarge fires it into the sky. Nothing. Again. Nothing. Sarge fires 10 more times before realizing.

"Damn, must be something internal. If I can find Know-it-all, he can fix it." Sarge thinks out loud.

Sarge hears a snap of a twig behind him. He instinctively turns around, and what he sees, makes him laugh.

"Awwww, what little cute....Armored Horses!" Sarge says. He walks up to the one that's in front.

"Aren't you a cutie? Yes you are, yes yo-" Sarge says before he gets bucked by one of the horses.

"Owww, what the hell!" He says, holding the cracked part of his helmet.

"Spear Point, Get behind him, you 3, get on his sides." The lead horse says.

'What the hell, did that horse just speak?' Sarge thought. The one he assumed to be "Spear Point" Gets behind Sarge, as the other 3 get on his sides, the third one next to "Spear Point". Sarge looks at the horses, spears raised. The Golden armor Clad Blue Colored  Horse in front of him seems to be giving the orders. He looks at the Droid Blaster he still has in hand.  'The one time I need to use a blaster.' He thought.

"So im guessing I need to surrender now?" Sarge says as he gets up and raises his hands.

"Yes, follow me, you got guests eager to meet you." Goldie Blue said.

'Guests?' Sarge Thought. Sarge starts walking behind the Commander in Gold, spears concentrated on him. Occasionally getting jabbed.

"Can this day get any worse?" Sarge mutters.

<><><>

"So that's why were here." Joker said.

"An attack? By......Mechanical beings?" Princess Luna asked.

"Droids....Built to serve the Sith Confederacy." Know-it-all said.

"Hmm, it seems that its....errrr.... Noobie is it? Its seems that its Noobies fault you, errr clones crashed." Princess Celestia said.

"Yes, it seems." Joker said, slowly turning to Noobie.

"Hey im sorry if im not that good of a pilo-" Noobie says before the door opens.

The princesses, the mares, the guard, and the clones look over to see Lieutenant Iron Gut and his battalion, and with them. Another Clone.

"What the hell? CT-1930?" Joker says as he gets up.

"The one and only." He says as he is pushed in.

"Princess Celestia and Luna, Ma'ams, we found another one, he fell from the sky as did the others. We figured to bring him to you." Iron Gut says.

"Yeah and he way a trouble maker too, he pushed over the medic and tried to run away, luckily Ol' Corporal Trail Breeze was here to catch him." Private Spear Point said.

"Couldn't let him get away." Trail Breeze said.

"Yeah and now im actually glad you caught me." Sarge said.

"Very good work, Lieutenant, why don't you and your men have the rest of the day off." Princess Celestia said.

"As you wish." Iron Gut said. With that, they leave, closing the door behind them.

"Hmph, so Joker, whats with Moonbutt and Sunbutt here?" Sarge says after he looks at them, then chuckles.

Sarge feels energy enveloping him, he looks down to see a blue aura lifting him off the ground. Next thing he knows, he is slammed into the second floor, his head gets stuck in the floor while his body hangs from the bottom of the floor.

"You ok Sarge?" Nine asks.

"Yeah im fine, its just that im stuck in the floor up here, and a scaly purple green thing is staring at me." Sarge yells.

"Don't mind Spike, he doesn't technically know what you are yet." Twilight says.

Nine, Princess Luna, and the guards start laughing.

"Haha, laugh it up, when I get down, one of you are going to lose a lot of blood." Sarge says.

"Ok, well, I think I have to cut this meeting short, this is very important I know, but we have other important things we have to attend to back in Canterlot. Guards, Luna, Lets go." Princess Celestia said. Before leaving, Princess Celestia and Twilight wave to each other.

"Ok she is gone, now, GET ME DOWN!" Sarge orders.

Nine rushes upstairs, where Spike was poking Sarges helmet. Nine tells Spike to move.

"Hey what are you doing?"  Sarge asks as Nine raises his boot over Sarges head.

"Don't, DOOOONT! Ahhhhh!" Sarge yells as Nine stomps on his head. Sarge falls to the ground. Nine laughs.

Sarge gets up and dusts himself off.

"Sarge, you gotta admit, you deserved all of that." Noobie said.

"No I didn't.......Ok maybe a little." Sarge admits.

"Well that's dandy and all, but who is going to fix that hole In that floor." Rainbow Dash said as she pointed up.

Everybody in the room looked up, Spike was poking his head through the hole.

"Ill fix it, im handy with tools." Know-it-all said.

"Yeah, because your a damn idiot who reads all day." Joker said.

"Speaking of fixing, Know-it-all, Can you fix this?" Sarge says as he picks up the blaster.

"Woah, where did you get this?" Know-it-all asks when he sees the Commando Droid Blaster.

"Yeah, and I've been meaning to ask you this. How did you escape." Joker asked.

Sarge starts telling of how he escaped the now Sith Surveillance Outpost.

<><><>

"And now im here." Sarge says.

"That sounded Awesome." Rainbow Dash said.

"Darling, that sounded like a nightmare." Rarity said.

"Ummm, yeah." Sarge says.

"Joker your going to have to tell me who these uhhh, ponies was it? Who these ponies are." Sarge whispered to Joker.

"Yeah, so anyway, we thought you died." Joker said.

"I didn't, and I had a Souvenir, but it was destroyed in the crash that was caused by Noobies bad advice!" Sarge yelled.

"Hey!" Noobie yelled.

"Well this was interesting. But, we have to go and discuss....whats going on." Twilight said as she and the others left the house.

"Hmph, from what we fought in that forest, they think we are weird." Joker said.

"Well, Joker, I know you have been leading Noobie, Know-it-all, and Nine, but now I want their opinion on something." Sarge said.

"What?" The other clones ask.

"Who is the better leader?" Sarge asks.

The clones look at each other.

"Joker." Nine says.

"Joker." Noobie says.

The clones look at Know-it-all, he has a lot to think about, Joker has always been a jerk to him. While Sarge was always nice. Joker always kept giving life threating decisions, hell he said they HAD to go back to the LAAT wreckage. Sarge would've said "Lets keep moving." and would have not gotten them almost killed. Know-it-all looks at Sarge and Joker. They get ready for his answer.

Chapter 7: Socializing

"Who is the better leader?" Sarge asks.

The clones look at each other.

"Joker." Nine says.

"Joker." Noobie says.

The clones look at Know-it-all, he has a lot to think about, Joker has always been a jerk to him. While Sarge was always nice. Joker always kept giving life threating decisions, hell he said they HAD to go back to the LAAT wreckage. Sarge would've said "Lets keep moving." and would have not gotten them almost killed. Know-it-all looks at Sarge and Joker. They get ready for his answer.

"Joker." Know-it-all said.

The clones stare at Know-it-all in surprise, this is the last thing they would've ever expected. Joker starts smacking the side of his helmet.

"Umm, i'm sorry Know-it-all, could you repeat that? I'm afraid I had something in my ear."  Joker said.

"Yeah, same over here." Sarge says.

"I said Joker, Unlike what you would've done, Joker worried more about getting us off this planet, even if it risked our lives. He cared, you would've just said "Keep Moving.". Oh and you said you found us by a signal? Noobie didn't set it up right, if Joker didn't order us to go back so we could check it out, you would've never found us." Know-it-all said, Patting Joker on the shoulder.

"Hmph, alright then, Joker I wanna make a bet. If everyone of us gets off this rock ali-"

"QUIET PLEASE! TRY TO SLEEP UP HERE!" Spike said.

"Uhhh right the little purple green thing?" Sarge says, realizing that he and the others were speaking loud.

"Dragon." Joker said.

"Uhh right, dragon. Sorry little dragon! Now as I was saying, I wanna make a bet with you, If you can keep us alive and get us off this rock in one piece. Ill give you the Droid Blaster that Know-it-all will be working on, and 60 credits." Sarge said.

"Hehehe, alright your on. I don't wanna know what ill lose, because I wont lose hehehehe." Joker said.

"Don't get cocky now. Though I would like to go back to Kamino in one piece." Noobie said.

The door opens, Revealing Twilight Sparkle.

"Ok, uhhhhh, Clones, Many of the ponies here have been talking about you, not all of it was positive, I think its time you met and socialized with the locals before a Run-you-out-of-town Riot starts." Twilight said.

"Ehh, agreed. Guys, stay within the town, and be nice." Joker said.

"I don't wanna hear about a dead pony, an injured pony, unless it attacked you of course, or a missing pony." Joker whispered.

"Your first order in my eyes. Good Job." Sarge said.

<><><>

The clones walk out of the building, Know-it-all stays behind. Admiring the library, and the archite- A hole in the second floor makes Know-it-all sigh. Sarge is an idiot.

"Aren't you going with your friends?" Twilight said, interrupting Know-it-all's Thinking.

"Brothers, and no." Know-it-all said.

"Ok, brothers. Why not?" Twilight inquired.

"Someone has to fix that floor. Right?" Know-it-all said.

"Somepony, and I guess." Twilight said. Chuckling at the time , and closing the door.

"We say "Someone", but whatever I guess." Know-it-all said.

"How long will it take for you to fix that hole that the clone one of you called "Sarge" caused?" Twilight said as she looked at the hole.

"A four hours with scrap materials. I could get it done in one hour with fresh materials." Know-it-all said.

"Fresh material costs a lot, besides I think you will be here for awhile so scrap material is preferable." Twilight said.

"I concur, you might wanna get Spike out of here, he will probably engulf me in flames or something with the loud noises the repairs will make, and you might wanna occupy yourself with something outside of this house for four hours, or so. As the loud noise will also interrupt the books I assume you will be reading." Know-it-all Explained.

"Uhhh. Ooook." Twilight said.

With that, she trots up stairs.

<><><>

The clones walk out of the building, Joker and Noobie start walking down the road towards The statue.

"Ya know, Joker this might be a good time to tell you, but the Republic might get our SOS sooner than we thought." Noobie said.

"What do you mean?" Joker asked. Ignoring the stares they are getting from some ponies.

"When we were fixing the mistakes I made with the SOS Beacon. I accidently wired one cord with another, and clicked a few working random buttons. Now that I think back to it, the Republic might get our SOS in three days." Noobie said.

"That's a good thing." Joker said.

"It might not be. See your not......Your not looking at every possibility with the SOS Beacon be able to reach Republic Space in three days. You see the Si- Oh never mind." Noobie yammered.

"Ok...." Joker said.

Joker and Noobie looked up at the Statue. Then they look at the Plaque. It Reads. 'Forever our Ruler, Princess Cel-'.

"Wow, cool!" said one voice behind Joker and Noobie.

"Yah, Ah told you there was Aliens here!" Said another voice.

Joker and Noobie turn around to see 3 small Ponies looking at them in awe. A Orange Pegasus Filly. A White Unicorn Filly, and a Yellow Regular Filly with a bow in her mane and sounds like Applejack. Joker chuckles.

"I really thought you were lying Apple Bloom. But, for once, you aren't pranking us." The White Unicorn said.

"Yah, Ah told ya! Ah told ya!" "Apple Bloom" said

The Clones look at each other while the Fillies yammered to each other. The Orange Pegasus filly turned out to be "Scootaloo". The White Unicorn filly named "Sweetie Belle", and of course the Yellow filly is "Apple Bloom". After five minutes of questions, Joker and Noobie decide to end the questions, with no answers.

"Well, aren't you an easily exited bunch?" Noobie said.

"Hahaha, Exited doesn't even begin to explain it." Joker said.

Joker, Noobie, and the Fillies begin a Loooooong conversation.

<><><>

The clones walk out of the building, Sarge looks over at Joker and Noobie, they seem to be discussing something, but nothing can be heard. Sarge looks over at a bench next to the Hollowed out Tree and feels like he hasn't taken a nap in 60 years. He sits down on the bench and quickly dozes off.

"Snnnnnngggg.... Snnnnnnnggggg." Sarge snored. Earning more stares from ponies who weren't already staring at him.

<><><>

The clones walk out of the building, Nine looks over to a house that looks like it was made out of Sweets. He sees a Bouncing Pink Pony going inside. Nine decides its time to say Thank you to her for the cake he didn't need.

Nine walks inside the building called "Sugarcube Corner". Once inside, if he didn't have any stares before, he does now. Every Pony inside, including the Ponies that looked liked the owners, stares at him. Then a Bouncing Pink Pony bounces down stairs. She immediately rushes to Nine and stars bouncing around him.

"Oooooh! Its one of the Clones. Lemme guess... Sarge?... Noobie? Nine?" Pinkie exclaimed.

"Nine, and by the way, I wanted to say thank you for the cake." Nine said.

" Come up stairs, Nine! I want you to meet my Pet alligator, Gummy." Pinkie said as she ran upstairs.

Nine, seeing nothing else better to do, decides to follow her, he looks at the nervous ponies, and waves at them. Nine walks upstairs, and follows Pinkie. They go in her room.

"This is Gummy, say hi Gummy!" Pinkie says.

Gummy walks over to Nine and starts nibbling his knee.

"Aww, he likes you!" Pinkie said.

" Haha, that's actually really cute. Anyways, I wanted to say thank you for the Cake." Nine said, petting Gummy.

"It was no problem, oh and I wanna ask you something." Pinke said.

"What?" Nine said, not wanting Pinkie to somehow appear in his helmet and exclaim the question in his ears.

"Joker, was he named Joker because he tells funny jokes?" Pinkie asks. Thankfully, not appearing in his helmet.

"No. We named him that ironically, he doesn't have a sense of humor all the much." Nine said.

"Oh, ok." Pinkie said, her ears drooping in disappointment.

"Its ok though, he's a good leader." Nine said.

"I guess thats good" Pinkie said.

For the next few hours, Nine and Pinkie tell jokes, and play board games, all of which are new to Nine, some which are new to Pinkie.

<><><>

The clones return to the Hollowed Tree, and see Sarge sleeping on bench.

"Really?" Joker said.

Chapter 8: "Thats great news!"

The clones look at Sarge. Sleeping on a bench when he was supposed to be socializing with others so they don't get kicked out. Joker and Noobie, who still have 3 fillies that call themselves "The Cutie Mark Crusaders", The name that made Joker ACTUALLY laugh, following them, asking them questions and when they get their answer, they get excited.

"Yep we flew here in a spaceship that we call an LAAT, it was a prototype though." Noobie said, smiling under his helmet.

"Whats a "LAAT"? Whats a "Proto-?" Scootaloo said.

"C'mon Scootaloo, its getting late!" Applebloom Interrupted.

"Yeah, it is, I guess we can ask them more questions tomorrow." Scootaloo said.

The CCCs run off, towards a farm. Noobie focuses his attention on Sarge, every other clone was looking right at him.

"What?" Noobie asks, shrugging while asking.

"Hehe." Nine chuckled.

The clones then look towards Sarge. Joker debates on kicking him awake, but it seems loud noises coming from inside the Tree already woke him.

"Snnnnng... uuuhhh, huh?? Whats.... Where am I?" Sarge sleepily asked.

"Ponyville, your sleeping on a bench you lazy slob." Joker said.

"Im not lazy, or a slob. I used to give you orders! Also, where are those noises coming from?" Sarge asked.

"The Tree. Know-it-all must be hard at work on either the hole, the blaster, or both." Noobie said.

"Well he better be working on that blaster." Sarge Says as he gets up and stretches.

The clones walk into the building to see that the loud noises have stopped. And that Know-it-all is working on the blaster and chatting with Twilight. Spike is nowhere to be seen. The hole in the 2nd floor is also fixed.

"Yeah, Yeah I've only been here for......a day I think? Maybe six hours. And I already like that that book, I think I read it while waiting for.....Princess Celestia? Yeah her." Know-it-all says as he fiddles with the sights on the Droid Blaster.

"Yeah the "Stories of the Constellations" is really good. Oh, seems like your friends are back." Twilight said, noticing the Clones.

"Brothers. Anyways, Know-it-all, I see you have been busy." Nine said while Twilight left the room.

"Yeah, the hole is fixed, OH and Sarge, this blaster you got here is a E-5 Blaster Rifle." Know-it-all said.

"Is that good? Im a little behind on my Blasters." Sarge asked.

"It is very powerful, its light, but its also very inaccurate. You better aim down the sights when you use this." Know-it-all said.

"If I ever use it." Sarge mutters.

"Well, speaking of technology." Joker said as he sits down on a pile of books.

Joker takes his helmet off, then looks at the clones, they stare back.

"Noobie, I am pretty sure you got something to say." Joker said.

"Sir, I told you already that it isn't necessarily a good thing." Noobie said.

"When did you become me?" Know-it-all asked.

"Yeah, I think we deserve to know whatever your hiding." Nine said.

"Im not hiding anything!!!!" Noobie yells. Noobie glances over at the window to see ponies outside staring at the house/library.

"Then tell us." Sarge calmly said.

"Fine Fine! You bastards wont listen to me afterwards, and you wont leave me be now so I might as well. Back at the LAAT, when Joker said "We have to go back" or whatever, I don't remember exactly what he said, but I don't care. Now anyways I clicked a few buttons, and connected a few wires in the SOS beacon thing and I probably should not have done that. But when Joker left the LAAT, I checked to see what I did, so it turns out that the SOS beacon will reach Republic space in about three days rather than five. But see, the thing is-" Noobie explained, but got interrupted by Nine.

"Then that's good!" Nine celebrated. His helmet wasn't on firm enough and when he jumped, his helmet fell off.

"Uhhhh.... No....No no no no that's not good." Noobie said, shaking his head and looking down.

"What are you talking about? Thats great news!" Know-it-all said.

"NO IT ISNT! If that beacon could reach Republic space in three days, it COULD reach Separatist space very soon as well, I cant estimate that." Noobie said. Taking off his helmet to take a breath of fresh air to calm his nerves.

Nine's celebrating ends abruptly when he hears those words. Know-it-all just stares. Sarge is off in dreamland as he isn't even paying attention to the clones, he is just staring into space. Joker sighs.

"I tried to tell Jok- Sarge are you even listening?!" Noobie raises his voice.

"Huh? Oh yeah yeah you said a bunch of vowels right?" Sarge said, snapping back into reality.

Silence fills the room. A good 5 minutes of awkward silence passes before Noobie continues.

"No...What? No no, well maybe yes I DONT KNOW! Again, I tried to tell Joker, but he brushed me off. Now you all know, now you all know the severity of this situation. And its all my fault! We will be bringing harm to these ponies. A-" Noobie says as he starts sobbing.

"Noobie, start acting like a man. And we will be bring harm to these ponies? DID YOU NOT SEE THOSE THINGS CALLED TIMBER WOLVES BACK IN THE FORREST? THE PONIES ARE ALREADY IN A DANGEROUS WORLD! WHAT WOULD WE DO TO BRING MORE HARM?" Nine yells.

"THE MARCH OF THE CONFEDERATION!" Noobie retaliates.

With those words, silence again fills the room. Joker's eyes are widened. Sarge's mouth is wide open, possibly realizing what could happen. Know-it-all's expression cant be seen as his helmet is on. And Nine is just looking at Noobie.

"The Confederacy will march on Equestria or WHATEVER THIS PLANET IS CALLED, and they will kill.....EVERYTHING!" Noobie says.

"And if the Confederacy got here before the Republic. We would be the only REAL defense to these creatures. I don't think those damn goldie guards could even take one droid down, let alone a Sith acolyte or master or whatever! AND....And.... AND-" Noobie bursts out. Joker tries to calm him down.

"Noobie, Noobie, calm down, take a moment to breath. Now why didn't you bring this up earlier at the crash site? This would've been useful to know." Joker said, getting up and putting his helmet on, but not before Twilight and her friends walk in.

"Well FIRST OF ALL, WE WERE UNDER ATTACK BY TIMBER WOLVES, DEFENDING PONIES. AND TRYING NOT TO GET STABBED AND FORCED TO KILL GOLDIE GUARDS. WHY DO YOU THINK I DIDNT MENTION IT AT THE TIME?!!!?" Noobie yells, before noticing the ponies that just entered.

The clones realize they have a lot of explaining to do....

Chapter 9: In another part of the Galaxy....

Delta Squad.... Known for the Battle on Geonosis, Known for investigating the Acclamator-class assault ship, "Prosecutor", and many other missions. Departed from the Acclamator II-class assault ship, "Rancor", Under the command of General Liam, for what seems like 2 hours to investigate the Quietness of the Rhen Var outpost, flying the G9 Rigger freighter, "Outrunner", RC-1138, RC-1140, RC-1207, and RC-1262, A.K.A. "Boss", "Fixer", "Sev", and "Scorch" are on route to find out why the Rhen Var Outpost is quiet.

"Sev, I don't care what you think... If it wasn't for me, The battle on Geonosis would have been a failure." Scorch Boasts.

"Hmph." Sev Replies.

"Will you two be quiet, you have been talking about that battle for the WHOLE ride." Fixer interrupts. Fixer returns to piloting. Boss stands up.

"Alright Commandos, listen up." Boss says. Everyone but Fixer looks at boss.

"The Rhen Var Surveillance Outpost has gone quiet, and we have been tasked to investigate what has happened. I have been told though that the clones stationed there are young and not well trained. Meaning that they are probably irresponsible. So whether they are irresponsible, or they disappeared. We are going to check it out." Boss briefs.

"Hey the Rhen Var Outpost? My buddy Nine is stationed there." Scorch says.

"Good for you then." Sev says.

The clones continue to keep themselves busy as they make their way to Rhen Var, after what feels like 3 hours, they pick something up on the communications.

""This is CT-9751, Im part of a Rhen Var Surveillance team. It was attacked by droids and there are four survivors. We are trapped on a unknown Planet, We need Evac. This Message Repeats." The com blurted out.

The clones look at the coms.

"Was that on?" Scorch asks.

"Yeah, its on." Sev says.

"This is CT-9751, Im part of a Rhen Var Surveillance team. It was attacked by droids and there are four survivors. We are trapped on a unknown Planet, We need Evac. This Message Repeats." The com's repeats.

"Hey, im picking up a beacon, it looks like its outside the planet." Fixer says.

Boss Immediately contacts the Clone Advisor to Delta Squad via Holoprojector.

"What is it Delta Squad?" CC-01/425 asks.

"Advisor, listen for yourself and you will see what." Boss and Scorch say simultaneously.

"This is CT-9751, Im part of a Rhen Var Surveillance team. It was attacked by droids and there are four survivors. We are trapped on a unknown Planet, We need Evac. This Message Repeats." The com repeats.

The clone advisor is silent for a few minutes. Then finally speaks.

"Well...... Objective Accomplished? New Objective." CC-01/425 informs.

"Hehehe, funny. Whats our new objective?" Scorch asks and laughs.

"This "CT-9751" is a survivor from the Rhen Var Outpost, put together with four survivors, including him, they may have information on how attack was made." CC-01/425 informs.

"Why cant we go and take back the Outpost, then look for the survivors?" Scorch asks.

"Yeah I wonder that too." Sev adds.

"The outpost went Silent eight hours ago. By now the Outpost is infested with droids and ,unlike Geonosis, you wont be having a Clone Invasion force diverting the bulk of the droids." CC-01/425 advises.

"Adviser, A beacon came with the message." Fixer said.

"That beacon should lead you to the Clones, follow it. Report back when you have made progress." CC-01/425

The Holoprojector shuts off. Leaving Delta Squad to their mission.

"Ok Commandos, Get to it!"  Boss says as he sits back down in the Co-pilot seat.

"This is CT-9751, Im part of a Rhen Var Surveillance team. It was attacked by droids and there are four survivors. We are trapped on a unknown Planet, We need Evac. This Message Repeats."  The com repeats.

"SOMEONE SHUT THAT OFF ALREADY!" Scorch yells. Scorch returns to his pazaak game with Sev.

<><><>

Another CIS Transport ship deploys 10 more Battle Droids.  200 Droids patrol the halls of the Outpost, 20 of them being Commando Droids.

"Ok so now we have our reinforcments. Now what?" The Droid Captain asks.

"Do I have to explain this again? Unless you wanna end up like the Droid Commando Captain who led the attack, you better listen good. Find the Clones, and exterminate them! *cough *cough *cough*" General Grievous commands.

"Got it sir, they wont stand a chance against our might." Unit 969 says.

The Captain shuts off his Holoprojector and looks towards the other Commando Droids. Being Droids, they have no Expressions.

"Ok guys, we have but one mission: Exterminate All Clone Survivors. Fortunately, our kind General Grievous has told us of a beacon and a message being picked up by his ship. For some reason he cant go after them....yet. So we are the lucky ones. Get to your respective transport and prepare to take off." Unit 969 says.

3 transports launch into space, Unit 969 starts barking orders through the coms.

"Ok, im picking up a beacon, anyone else picking up the beacon?" Unit 969's asks.

"I am." One droid says.

"I am too" Another reports.

"Good, follow that beacon. It will lead us straight to the Clones." Unit 969 says.

Unit 969's Holoprojector vibrates, then a hologram of Grievous appears.

"Yes Sir?" Unit 969 asks.

"My ships have detected three transports leaving the planet, I assume *cough* *cough* assume these are yours?" General Grievous asks.

"Yes Sir, we are carrying out your orders sir." Unit 969 says.

"I thought as much. When you find the beacon source, report back to me." General Grievous orders.

"Roger Roger" Unit 969 confirms.

Chapter 10: "Well, i dont think that will happen."

"What do you have to report?" General Liam asks.

"Delta Squad has made progress, they have discovered the fate of the Rhen Var clones." CC-01/425 reports.

"What happened?" General Liam asks.

"The outpost was attacked by droids. Delta Squad is following a beacon leading to the survivors as we speak." CC-01/425 replies.

"Ok, you there!" General Liam says. General Liam points towards a Clone on the Communications.

"Yes Sir?"

"Send out a message to any and all Republic ships in the area. You there, what is the closest ship?" General Liam commands, General Liam points at another clone.

"The nearest Ship is a Consular-class space cruiser, "Waning Fire". It has 15 Clone Troopers and General Obi-wan Kenobi aboard."

"Wherever they are going, it will have to wait, How far are they?" Liam Asks.

"I estimate seven hours. But if they activate their hyperspace, they could be here in three."

"Ok, You there, send a Message to the "Waning Fire" tell them we need reinforcements. Send the same message to any other Republic Ships in the area you can find!" General Liam commands the Com Clone.

"Yes Sir."

<><><>

The Ponies sit down in front of the clones as they explain why they were yelling, after all, the ponies were in front of the house when the yelling began.

"Sooo...What is with all the yelling, on our way back, we heard it, and ponies were staring at the library." Twilight inquired.

Noobie, having rage building up inside of him for 5 year now, answers first.

"Well, it was just something about the war going on between the Republic and the CIS."  Noobie says, clearing any sadness and anger from his system immediately.

"That...It feels like the yelling was about something more." Fluttershy timidly says.

"Im pretty sure that's why he freaked out. I mean there I no other reason." Sarge adds.

"What? You seriously have not been listening? You....BASTARD! THIS IS WHAT I MEAN! Ok you want to know why I was yelling? OK Fine! I was telling them something that could mean the compromise of this planets neutrality. AND THEN I told them how I heavily worried for the safety of this planets inhabitants! BUT THESE BASTARDS DONT EVEN LIKE LISTENING!!!" Noobie yells. The ponies get up and back a few feet away, except Fluttershy, she ran and hide under a table.

"You do know that IF THE CIS GET HERE FIRST, WE WILL ALL DIE! AND YOU BASTARDS DONT LIKE TO LISTEN, HEY SARGE, IF YOU DONT LISTEN TO ME, THEN HOW DID YOU BECOME A SERGEANT? OH BECAUSE YOU KISSED UP TO YOUR HR. ALL OF YOU ARE JUST BIG...Snnnnnnngggg." Noobie begins before he falls asleep. Twilight had just casted a Sleep spell on him.

"Wow. he has a temper." Rainbow Dash says.

"He is not normally like this, he is usually quiet." Joker said.

Fluttershy comes out of hiding.

"Is....Is it over?" She asks.

"Yes Fluttershy, its over." Twilight says, trying to encourage to her to come out.

Fluttershy comes out of hiding, reluctantly. Rainbow Dash brings something up.

"You know, I have to ask this. What is up with your faces, they are the same. So Is your voices." Rainbow Dash asks.

"We are clones. We are all made the same, some of us though have our hair colored and styled differently, some even go bald." Nine answers.

"Yeah, Noobie here is one of them." Joker said, pointing at the now fallen over unconscious Noobie.

"Ok, so what does Know-it-all look like?" Rarity asks.

Know-it-all Shakes his head.

"No, no ive never shown what I look like, and im not about to." Know-it-all says, leaving how he looks...A mystery.

<><><>

"This is the Consular-class space cruiser, "Waning Fire". We have received your message. We are on our way to your Location. ETA 3 hours!" The Coms Clone says.

"Roger that, I will let General Liam know." The Rancor Coms Clone says.

<><><>

"So what is this about invasion from a enemy Military force?" Twilight asks.

"The CIS. They invade planets to gain their allegiance. That's a bad thing too." Know-it-all said.

"Yeah, Well, I don't think that will happen. Or at least not here." Joker said.

Twilight and her friends look at each other.

"We need to let Princess Celesta and Luna know about this. This could be a bad thing." Twilight whispers to her friends. They all nod to her.

<><><>

"The is the Acclamator I-class assault ship, " Ringer". We are Five-Thousand strong. We have received your message and are on our way to your location, ETA one hour."

"Roger that, I will inform General Liam."

After Five Minutes, The "Rancor" Com Clone gets 3 new Com Requests.

"This is the Acclamator I-class assault ship, "Jinx". We fifteen-thousand strong. We have received your message and are on our way to your location. ETA four ours."

"Roger that, General Liam shall be informed.

"This is Acclamator I-class assault ship, "Raining Death". We are ten-thousand strong. Captain Rex is aboard. We have received your message and are on our way to your location. ETA two hours."

"Roger that, General Liam will be happy with this."

"This is the Acclamator I-class assault ship, "Triple Blaster". We are seven-thousand strong. We are on our way to your location. ETA six hours."

"Roger that. The General will be pleased."

The last of the Ships detected in the nearby area have been contacted and are on there way.

"General Liam sir!"

"Trooper, what is it?" General Liam asks.

"I have contacted every ship in the area, Captain Rex and General Obi-wan Kenobi are on their way and we, with a force of three-thousand combined with the forces of the other ships, have massed a big invasion force to take back Rhen Var."

"Good, how long till the reinforcements get here?" General Liam inquires.

"Various times, one will be here real soon as they were very close."

"Good, prepare for the assault."

<><><>

Twilights Friends had just left. And its nighttime.

"*yawns* I am tired." Joker said as he stretched and yawned.

"Well,i have sorta decided that letting you sleep outside would be...Not hospitable or something.. So, if you like, you could sleep in the basement." Twilight says, hoping that she didn't seem mean.

"Don't have to tell me twice, G'night." Nine says as he walks down to the basement.

"You... You don't need blankets?" Twilight asks befuddled.

"No, our clone armor is enough. Good night Twilight." Joker says. The other clones walk downstairs, while Sarge carries Noobie downstairs.

<><><>

3 droid landing party ships land inside a forest. Landing around a LAAT. The droid captain Contacts General Grievous.

"Sir.....We have landed."

Chapter 11: The Assault on Rhen Var

General Liam, looking very smug, has, not only General Obi-wan Kenobi and Captain Rex aboard, but 4 Acclamator I-class assault ship with over 20,000 troopers following behind, is on his way to attack Rhen Var, and take it back from the CIS. Rhen Var is in sight, and a CIS fleet is holding position over the planet, small transports coming and going from the ships.

"Sir, Rhen Var is in sight, shall we commence the attack?" General Liam asks Obi-wan Kenobi.

"Well, I think so. Launch the Star Fighters and Landing Parties." Obi-wan Commands.

General Liam salutes and gets on the communications to tell the other 4 Acclamator I-class assault ship, in addition to his ship, to launch their landing parties and star fighters.

"All ships, launch your star fighters and landing parties. The star fighters have to protect the LAATs. When the all landing parties are clear, star fighter pilots must focus on keep reinforcements from the CIS ships at bay." General Liam orders.

The launching bays open, star fighters and LAATs carrying Clone Troopers launch into space. The battle has just begun.

<><><>

"Sir." A droid says, trying to get the attention of General Grievous.

"What is it?" General Grievous asks.

"We have detected star fighters and LAATs launching from five different Republic assault ships. Shall we prep our star fighters for launch?"

"Yes, we shall crush this retaliation!" Grievous commands.

<><><>

"Blue Squadron, Check in!" The Blue Squadron Leader commands.

"Blue two checking in."

"Blue three checking in."

"Blue four checking in."

"Blue five checking in."

"Blue six checking in."

"Blue seven checking in."

"Blue Eight checking in!"

"Alright, our job, along with the other star fighter squadrons, is to protect the LAATs, you know what to do boys!"

"STAR FIGHTERS INCOMING!" Yells Blue 2.

"LETS DO THIS LADS! SPREAD OUT! GO GO GO!" Commands Blue Leader.

The star fighters collide into a dogfight, while Blue 7 was kamikazied by one of the vulture droids, the rest of the squadron fights on. Another Republic squadron joins in on the dogfight, then another CIS squadron joins, then another Republic, then another CIS, then more and more Republic fighters join in, then more and more CIS fighters join in. Now there are about 160 fighters, from both sides,  in the fight. The LAATs are going right over the dogfighter frenzy.

"This is Blue Leader, Blue two, and Blue three, protect the LAAT Squadrons, they don't have many fighters protecting them."

"Yes sir!"

"Gladly!"

Blues 2 & 3 join Yellow Squadron as they escort 5 LAAT Squadrons. More fighters are incoming.

"Incoming, Yellow Squadron, Defend us! Blues two and three, destroy any stragglers!"

"Ha ha, we are the best, lets go Yellows!"

"Blues, you heard Green Squadron!"

The Yellows engage in a dogfight with 15 vulture droids. 3 vulture droids have already been destroyed. The LAATs are about few minutes from the atmosphere, and already 3 LAATs have been destroyed, Blues 2 & 3 are doing their best trying to keep the stragglers at bay, but 1 was able to get 2. Turning back to the dogfight that is now down to Republic with 90 ships, and the CIS with 110 ships. Red Squadron from the "Triple Blaster" was already destroyed, Eagle Squadron was maimed, with only 4 ships left and 6 ships destroyed, Blue was nicked, with Blue 7 down, and Blues 2 & 3 off protecting the LAATs. The rest of the squadrons was at full strength. Explosions and Proton Torpedoes going through spaces where star fighters were, star fighter remains smashing into unwary pilots and droids.  Every second a ship is hit, and either is destroyed or fights on. Turning back to the LAATs, they are not having a pretty day, they are going through heavy fire from stragglers as Blues 2 & 3 helps the LAATs tank through the battle, Yellow squadron is still at full strength, having destroyed 8 fighters already. LAAT squadrons have already lost 4 ships as stragglers continues to come through, reinforcements arrive to assist the vulture droids who are fighting Yellow Squadron.

"This is Green Leader, we are nearing the objective, ETA 20 minutes!" Green Leader reports, they are now in the atmosphere, Yellow and Blue have done their job.

General Liam looks at the battle before him, the LAATs have already reached their objective, and the rest of the deployed star fighters are battling to keep the reinforcements at bay. The rest of the star fighters under his command waiting to be deployed.

"Sir, the battle is going well." General Liam tells Obi-wan.

<><><>

The LAATs land, or at least, what's left of them. 20 troopers from each LAAT jump out, including Captain Rex. The Outpost is now Fortified with 500 droids, this battle will be a tough one.

"GO GO GO!" Yells Captain Rex.

The 200 clones find cover behind crates, barrels, and some just charge. The droids, having been alerted about the attack before the LAATs, have already 60 droids defending the doors to the Outpost. Blaster fire rings out, killing 20 clones immediately, and only 10 droids as well.  1 droid and 1 clone are engaged in a melee battle. Trying to smack each other with their blasters, the clone is able to break the guard of the droid and smacks him with the butt of his rifle, then blasts him. He finds cover behind a crate next to Captain Rex.

"Good Job trooper!" Captain Rex manages to say over mega blaster battle.

"Thank you sir." The clone responds.

Destroyer droids arrive on the battle scene, killing 25 more clones. The clones have received 80 casualties while the droids, being dug in where they are, have received 30 casualties. Some clones toss EMP detonators at the Rollies, disabling their shields, the clones with blaster repeaters step out of cover and start blasting, killing 2 Destroyer droids, in 2 short bursts. The clones cheer as the remaining droids are cleared up from the outside. With 120 Clones left, they blow open the doors to the Outpost, killing 20 droids immediately.

"Alright boys, split up and kill any droid you come across! FOR THE REPUBLIC!"

"FOR THE REPUBLIC!" Every clone yells at the top of their lungs.

The 120 clones split up into 4 squads, Card 1, Card 2, Card 3 and Card 4. Captain Rex leading Card 4.

<><><>

"This is Blue Leader to the "Rancor", we are suffering too many casualties, Eagle, Red, and Company squadrons are destroyed and we need reinforcements!" Blue Leader asks.

"Roger that, Incoming Reinforcements." General Liam replies.

General Liam, passing Obi-wan as he watches the battle unfold, walks towards the coms, ready to launch the last of the star fighters. He speaks into it, with a smug voice.

"All remaining fighters launch immediately, win this battle." General Liam orders.

All the remaining Fighters launch, reinforcing Blue, Grey, Wild, and Yellow squadrons, now the ratio for the star fighter battle is Republic 250, CIS 80. The Launching bays open for the CIS ships...

<><><>

"Sir." The droid says.

"What is status of the battle?" General Grievous asks, with anger in his voice. Obviously expecting bad news as the LAATs has landed.

"We have detected more Republic star fighters entering the battle, our droid are outnumbered, shall we send reinforcements?"

"YES, YES SEND THE REINFORCEMENTS!" Grievous commands angrily. After sighing angrily he speaks up.

"What is the status of the outpost?" He asks calmly.

"Uhh, we actually just received a holographic message, here ill play it." The droid plays the holographic message, a Commander droid appears in front of Grievous.

"Keep firing! Sir, we need reinforcements! The clones have breached the outpost and--" The holographic droid reports, blaster rounds flying behind him. The droid gets cut off by a detonator blowing up by his legs.

"MY LEGS!....My legs!" The holographic droid whines off screen. The holoporjector shuts off.

General Grievous boils with rage, smashing the droid next to him. He gets up and looks towards the destroyed droid next to him, and gives another order.

"FIRE ALL CANNONS AT THE REPUBLIC SHIPS!" Grievous orders.

"Roger Roger.".

<><><>

General Liam and Obi-wan watches the battle before them, with 230 Republic fighters left, and now 202 CIS fighters engaged in dogfighting, the battle is going well. As commands from different Squad Leaders come in on the coms, more and more ships explode in space, from Obi-wan's view, for every 10 droids destroyed, they lose 3 fighters. More and more explo-. *RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLE*Obi-wan and General Liam, with the other clones on the bridge, stumble around as the ship is hit with heavy lasers.

"Sirs, The CIS ships are firing at us, shall we return fire?" A clone asks, panicked.

"Raise the shields and open fire on the opposing force." General Liam orders.

General Liam walks over to the coms, the coms clone is still on the floor. General Liam begins his orders for the other ships under his command.

"Raise your shields and fire at the CIS ships." General Liam barks into the coms. Immediately after the order, the Republic ships are open fire with all their heavy cannons. General Liam frowns, this battle is getting worse by the second.

<><><>

Captain Rex, being followed by 25 clones, 5 of them being killed in a battle with 50 droids, is walking down a corridor, with clone bodies filling it. They already lost communications with Card 2.

"This must be Card Two." Captain Rex says.

"What a waste." A clone next to Rex says. Rex remembers this clone being the one that was in a melee fight with a droid back when they landed.

The clones hear Cards 3 & 1 on the coms, obviously cheering. Captain Rex sighs, down to 65 clones left in the outpost. 85 droids were still running about. Captain Rex is tackled by a clone, a rocket soars over where Rex was at.

"SUPER BATTLE DROIDS, TAKE COVER!" Yells a clone.

"Thanks." Captain Rex says to the clone that tackled him. No response.

The 25 clones that are still standing, including Rex himself, open fire behind some crates. The Super Battle Droids as advancing slowly, firing Wrist Rockets and blaster rounds. The Supers fire a wrist rocket that hits a crate dead on, it explodes, killing 5 clones immediately. After 5 more minutes of exchanging fire and advancing, a loud noise is heard, the clones and the droids stop firing to listen. It gets closer and closer and closer until it hits. A clone star fighter from the battle in space crashes into the building corridor, smashing and killing the Supers. A clone pilot, bloodied and torn from the crash, gets out and limps towards the clones by the crates, he collapses and the star fighter explodes.

"You, check to see if he is alive!" Rex orders.

"Yes sir."

A clone steps out of cover to check on the Pilot, he is alive. The clone looks towards Rex and gives a thumbs up. The captain sighs with relief.

"Pick him up and lets go, the other Squads should almost be done wiping out the droids." Rex says.

The clone picks up the Pilot and carries him down the corridor with the others. This clone, is a lucky clone.

<><><>

The battle has been raging for  2 hours now, so many pilots and droids have died. The battle is becoming hopeless for both sides.

"Sir."

"What now?" Grievous asks with anger.

"We are receiving a holographic message. Shall I play it?"

"Why not?" The general says sarcastically.

The Holo Projector shows a Commander droid, unlike the one from earlier. But this one is missing an Arm.

"Sir, me and my droids are all that are left. There are twenty of us, and-!" The droid gets interrupted by a droid in the background.

"Here they come! *BAM* Noooo!"

"We need help! Please send-!" The last thing the holo projector shows Is the commander getting hit in the head with a blaster round. It shuts off. General Grievous gets up and smashes the droid next to him again.

"RAAAGH! THATS IT, PULL OUT! ORDER OUR SHIPS TO PULL OUT AND TAKE US SOMEWHERE THATS NOT HERE!" General Grievous angrily orders.

"Roger roger."

<><><>

The CIS ships warp into Hyperspace, leaving their remaining Vulture droids to be destroyed by the Republic Fighters. Sounds of victory emanate from many clones on deck. Captain Rex barks from the coms "We have taken the Outpost, mission accomplished.". The star fighters return to their respective ships. The battle has been won. But now its time to chase down Grievous.....

Chapter 12: The Beginning of the Final Battle

The morning shines high in the sky, but not in the basement, as Noobie is propped up against a wall, still sleeping from the spell casted on him, Nine is sleeping comically on the floor, Know-it-all sleeping in as serious way, Sarge sleeping in a chair, and Joker awake. Joker has been awake since dawn, its now morning, 9:30 tops. Joker has been pacing back and forth, wall from wall, worrying about Noobie's words. 'The SOS could reach CIS space first! Could that happen? I don't want any of these ponies to die.' Joker thought. His pacing woke Nine.

"Huh, bactade discs?" Nine says as he wakes up from his dream.

"No such thing." Joker said as he continued to pace.

The pacing continues for 5 minutes. Nine just looks on, chuckling. Its obvious Joker has something on his mind. The pacing continues. Joker is beginning to breath heavily, the pacing speeds up. Nine decides to stop this.

"Ok ok slow down, your gonna make a trench deep enough that even Jabba's rancor cant get out of." Nine says.

"Im sorry, just caught up in a thought." Joker says, finally ending the pacing.

"So, what's on your mind, Paco?" Nine asks.

Joker sits down uncomfortably. Nine begins to ponder at why Joker is beginning to freak out. ' Could it be that we are on a planet that is populated by ponies? Or the fact that we might never get out of here? Hmmmmm' Nines train of thought gets interrupted by a word, a word uttered by Joker.

"The CIS." Joker says, that word even made Know-it-all shift in his sleep, Sarge slaps the air, and Noobie fall over. Noobie still doesn't wake up.

"How?......How do you not wake up from falling over?" Nine asks, befuddled.

"Noobie is a fortress of clone stone, Back during training days, I punched him in the side as hard as I could, no bruise." Joker admitted.

"Huh, learn something new everyday. Now what about the CIS?"

"I've been pacing back and forth, thinking about Noobie's words. About the CIS getting our SOS first." Joker said.

Those words made Nine quiet, for the first time.

<><><>

"DAMMIT! Why do I always lose at Pazaak? Why?" Scorch asks.

"Because you suck at it, now give me your credits." Sev coldly demands.

The G9 Rigger Freighter, "Outrunner" comes outta hyperspace near the SOS Planet. Its oddfully colorful, and looks as if it has not seen conflict within centuries. Fixer sighs at this, as that will change really fast. Boss stands up as the SOS beacon is lost.

"Commandos, we have lost the SOS beacon, we will have to pi-" Boss is interrupted by Fixer.

"One step ahead of ya Boss, I've already pinpointed the location of the SOS beacon. Im actually heading there now." Fixer says.

"Ah, good job. Well Commandos, prepare to land, I don't know what we will encounter, and I don't think whatever lives on this planet will be friendly to outsiders, lets hope our clone buddies down there are still alive. GEAR UP!" Boss orders.

Sev loads his DC - 15x sniper rifle, checking it twice to make sure it doesn't jam. Scorch fiddles with his Thermal Detonators, luckily not blowing up the ship. Fixer looks at his DC - 15A blaster rifle and knocks it over, chuckling silently. Boss readies his DC-17 hand blaster, and looks towards the planet, sighing deeply. He has a bad feeling about this.

<><><>

"Get that SOS beacon down! We cant have any Clones following this signal!" The Droid Commando Captain orders.

"Roger Roger."

3 droids walk into the destroyed  Prototype LAAT, while the other 3 stand guard outside, strange noises surround them, eyes watching them from the darkness.

"Sir, I have a bad feeling about this." Unit 083 says.

Blasting noises come from inside the LAAT, the SOS beacon and message has been destroyed. Howling surrounds the droids.

"Get out here Units 555 439 and 723, we got contacts!" Unit 969 orders.

The three droids rush outside to see a creature made of wood with yellow eyes looking at them. Then 3 more appear, then more and more appear, totaling into 12 wolf-like creatures circling them.

"WELL WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? BLAST THEM!" Unit 969 orders.

The 6 droids open fire on the Wolves, killing 2 immediately as the blaster rounds hit the eyes. The wolves attack, pouncing on Unit 555, tearing him limb from robotic limb. Unit 328 goes into a panic, overheating his Blaster Pistol in 2 bursts. Unit 969 pulls out his Vibroblade, and charges the nearest creature, and thrusts the sharp end into the head of the tree wolf, disabling the brain activity of the creature, killing it. The remaining wolves retreat into the forest, receiving 4 losses to the pack.

"We....We lost Units 555 and 439, sir. We need to leave this forest before those things come back...." Unit 328 says.

"I agree, lets get a move on." Unit 969 orders.

<><><>

"You sure about this? You sure that the CIS could get here?" Nine asks.

"Yes I'm pretty sure, I didn't think it could happen before, but after thinking, it probably can, and will. And I don't want it to happen." Joker says.

"I...I don't know what to say to all this." Nine says.

"We need to remain vigilant, if the CIS do find us, we are the only defense, I don't even think the princesses and their Goldie guards, and from what I've learned from Ms. Luna, her Darkness Guards, could take even a Battle Droid down." Joker admitted.

"I'm inclined to agree with you." Nine added.

"Well, im gonna go take a walk on the outskirts of town. I will be back later." Joker said as he got up.

"Alright, ill just sit here and think about playing pazaak."

Joker got up and walked upstairs, leaving Nine to think about nothing at all.

<><><>

The "Outrunner" lands outside a dark forest. Delta Squad exits the transport, and surveys their area. Colorful, just like the exterior of the planet.

"Sir, the area looks clear, and, from my scans, there is a settlement two klicks from here, should we start our search their?" Fixer asks.

"Yes we should. But we shouldn't make contact directly, lets move out." Boss orders.

Delta Squad goes into defensive formation as they walk the edge of the Dark, scary looking forest. Always alert, always having the feeling someone is watching, or something.

<><><>

The droids come out of the forest, and the first thing they see, are 3 small animals, with different colors, White yellow and orange. Unit 969 walks over to the orange little winged creature and picks it up. Fear takes over the face of the small creature, the droids laugh.

"What...What is that thing captain? Bwahhh hahahaha!" Unit 328 asks. Laughing like a wampa when it gets it meal.

"I don't know? Its a living thing...It isn't posing a threat, but its so small is probably on the bottom of the food chain here... Wanna blast it?" Unit 969 asks.

The droids raise their blasters as the captain holds the little winged orange creature in the air, the creature begins to struggle, while the other small creatures stare in fear. A Blaster round hits Unit 969 in the head, immediately destroying him.

<><><>

As Joker leaves the library, he hears loud noises coming from the Everfree forest, but brushed it off as creepy things call that hellish place, their home. With a DC-17 in hand, Joker walks towards the outskirts of town, hoping for a small, nice walk, in exchange for memory's of war. Joker and his friends, and his new friend Know-it-all, have almost began to become native. Liking the fact where there is no war, only happiness. Where civility reigns, not blasters and strong words. But their duty as clones in the Grand Republic calls to them, War is built into a clone, where a clone is, war will be, that's what got Joker scared for these ponies. A clone is made for war, and half the clones he met, have met a grisly and sad death, which sometimes were just coincidental, but some were just overkill. Jokers train of thought was interrupted by a robotic voice.

"I don't know? Its a living thing...It isn't posing a threat, but its so small is probably on the bottom of the food chain here... Wanna blast it?"

Joker grabbed his Blaster Pistol, he knew what it was....Droids...They have found the planet. Being a little ways from the town already, Joker doesn't worry about firing his blaster and causing a panic, as a panic in Equestria has already been caused by the arrival of the clones. Joker takes cover behind a tree, and looks at the droids, the captain-looking-droid is holding....Scootaloo?! In the air, and the droids are about to blast her, Joker acts fast, and takes aim. Joker fires a single round, saving Scootaloo and her friends. The droid captain falls over dead, and the CMCs run, escaping the impending battle.

"Captain! Look there is a clone! Blast him!" One droid says.

"There is one of our objectives!" Another blurts out.

Blaster fire rings out, nearly killing Joker. Panicking, Joker gets on his radio, which is still intact, hoping Nines radio is still intact.

<><><>

Nine sits there, playing "Smack-a-clone" with Noobie, who is still snoozing. *SMACK* Nine smacks the helmet again. *SMACK SMACK*  Nine smacked Noobie again, for some reason, he is having fun.

"Numph....Nine.....Erph.......Outnumbered.....Need........help.......Droids.......Everfree forest......Leplh....." Nine listens to his muffled radio.

Nine takes out his radio to listen to whats left.

"I will repeat! Nine, wake up the others and help! The droids have found us and are attacking me! I am near the Everfree forest! HURRY!" Joker yells on his radio as blaster fire rings out in the background.

"Noobie wake up already!" Nine yells, smashing Noobie's helmet with his fist, waking up Noobie. Noobie wakes up with a grudge.

"HIT ME AGAIN AND I WILL SHOVE YOUR FIST UP YOUR ASS!" Noobie threatens. Nine is taken back by the threat.

The yelling woke up Know-it-all and Sarge. Sarge gets up and kicks Noobie's helmet.

"Shut up you bastard...I was having a wonderful dream of bactade!" Sarge said.

"Me too! But that's not important! Hurry grab your weapons, Know-it-all, you don't have a weapon, so just follow us!" Nine ordered.

"Your not Joker!" Sarge said.

"I've been hit! Help!" Joker said over the radio.

"Wha? Joker...Where is he!" Know-it-all asked.

"UNDER ATTACK BY DROIDS! LETS GO!" Nine franticly yells.

The clones panic and grab their weapons, Know-it-all cracks his knuckles, which are still under his armor. They start up the stairs and open the door to the house, Sarge runs over Spike, who was opening the door to check on the clones. Know-it-all jumps over Twilight, who stares at the clones till they leave her sight. The clone sprint towards the loud noises coming from outside of town. As the outskirts near the Everfree forest get closer, the blaster fire becomes more clearer, they see a droid firing at Joker

"You only live once buddies! HAHA" Yelled Know-it-all, charging towards one droid.

"Never seen him excited before. Hmph" Nine murmured.

The clones takes cover at nearest cover they could find, except Know-it-all, who is struggling trying to rip an arm off of a droid while said droid is trying to fight off the attacking clone. Nine kneels next to Joker, who is behind a tree, holding his shoulder.

"'Bout time you got here! I'm bleedin', kill those damn droids!" Joker ordered.

The droids, not being in cover, are hit once and twice and over and over, yet they still don't fall.

"Aim for the head! I killed one of them that way!" Joker said.

"Im being suppressed over here!" Yelled Sarge, who is holding his Droid blaster.

"Damn it! Me too!" Noobie said. Know-it-all is still fighting the same droid he was fighting 2 minutes ago.

"Hell! That one grazed me!" Nine said. All clones are either suppressed or in Melee combat.

"Blind fire! DO SOMETHING I CANT SIT HERE ALL DAY!" Joker complained.

The clones blind fire when they are sure they wont get hit, minutes pass as the droids continue to load, and fire, load and fire, reload 'n' fire. But then a blade goes through one of the droids head. A blade belonging to a commando gauntlet.

<><><>

Boss leads the commando squadron through the field, they have already covered much ground between the landing point, and the village, Yellow eyes have been watching them, putting Boss on edge. As they advance towards the town, the sounds of blasters becomes clearer and clearer.

"Sir...Do you hear that?" Sev asks.

"Yeah....Blaster Fire.....There are droids here somewhere." Fixer concludes.

"You sure it isn't because of the yellow eyes watching us? Are you sure the clones are not shooting one of them? Or is it a droid shooting pretty eyes over there?" Scorch asks, pointing at they yellow eyes.

"Shut up." Sev says.

The clones continue along the edge of the forest, before something catches their eyes. A dead droid on the ground, they move towards to investigate, before they realize, this is where the blaster fire was coming from.

"Hey Fixer, you were right." Scorch said.

"Naturally."

"Ok commandos, we have found the clones, and they don't look so good. Lets get these damn droids." Boss rallies.

Sev runs up behind one of the droids and thrusts his gauntlet with a blade through the droids head, killing him instantly.

<><><>

As the last of the droids were mopped up by the clones, Joker, Sarge, Noobie, Nine and Know-it-all stare at who rescued them.... Delta Squad, Joker frowns at Sev. Know-it-all walks up to Sarge with a droid arm.

"Here you go . New souvenir." Know-it-all tosses Sarge a droid arm.

"Oh.....Thanks?" Sarge says.

The clones and Delta Squad all exchange glances before one finally pipes up.

"Hey hey Nine! How you been?" Scorch asks Nine.

"I've been better. Sir" Nine replies.

"Ok ok no need for the formalt-" Scorch begins, Boss cuts him off.

"Ok Scorch, quiet. Now first things first. Which one of you is in charge?" Boss asks.

The clones immediately point towards Joker, who is still bleeding.

"Yeah, its me. But back before we got here, Sarge was in charge, and he almost got us killed, with his "Lets show em Who's Boss!' stuff." Joker says. Delta squad looks at Sarge, Scorch walks up to him and swats him in the back of the head.

"Bad Sarge! Bad!" Scorch says disapprovingly, Nine chuckles at this.

"Hey! Bloody clone over here dying. Needs bacta." Joker says.

Fixer walks over to Joker and injects his wounded soldier with a bacta injection. Jokers bleeding ends and the strange sensation of feel-good that comes with a bacta injection starts.

"Thank you Fixer....Im just gonna sit here for a minute." Joker says, sounding like he is unaware of his surroundings.

"Ok....Anyways." Sarge says, punching Scorch in the face after a few seconds of staring.

"Hey! OW DAMMIT!" Scorch says.

"Calm down the both of you. There is not sense in beating each other up." Fixer says. Scorch and Sarge grunts.

"Hey check it out!" Know-it-all says, showing off a droid blaster he found.

"Yeah cool, same one I have." Sarge retaliates for no apparent reason.

The little reunion is ended as a small purple animal walks up to Joker.

"WOAH WOAH, What the hell is that?" Scorch asks, pointing his blaster at the thing. Boss, Sev, and Fixer does the same.

"Lower your weapons, its just a Unicorn, her name is Twilight and-" Sarge says.

"Huh...Whats going on? Oh hi Twilight." Joker says, recovering from his ecstasy state.

"You both know this Unicorn?" Sev asks.

"Long story, just lower your weapons and we will explain it to you, Twilight you might wanna sit down." Noobie says.

<><><>

"So.....These things can talk....And they are ruled by two Princesses?" Boss recollects.

"Kinda like the Chancellor." Sev says.

"Yeah. Now Twilight, I bet you have been wondering who they are. This is Sev, Scorch, Fixer, and Boss. Delta Squad." Know-it-all says.

"I've noticed their armor is different than your plain white armor." Twilight says.

"That's because they are commandos. They are more important than us." Joker says, glaring at Sev.

"Right..... Well anyways, I've been looking for you five, and seeing as how there are now more of you, this might be of concern. Princess Celestia requests that you all come to Canterlot, it seems urgent." Twilight says.

The clones look at each other. This cant be good.

<><><>

"Uh that train ride was terrible. All those ponies staring at us." Joker says.

"Hmph." Noobie grunts.

Delta Squad remains quiet as they enter the Royal Palace. Princess Celestia is sitting on her throne, Princess Luna nowhere to be seen. The Princess looks worried, and the sight of more clones increase her look of worry. Delta Squad, although it cant be seen under their helmets, their mouths are wide open. Twilight Sparkle and her friends, whom joined the train ride when Twilight and the clones arrived at the station, bowed to the princess. Joker, Know-it-all, Sarge, Noobie, and Nine kneels to the Princess, and Delta Squad kneel when they see what the others are doing.

"No need for the bowing, as there is something I must talk about. Guards, leave us please." Princess Celestia orders.

"As you wish your highness." One of the guards says.

"Before I say anything else though, I must ask why there is more clones." Princess Celestia says after the guards leave the Throne Room.

"We will explain it to you later. You had something urgent to tell us?" Joker says.

"Yes... Princess Luna said she had spotted something large in our planet's space, something that is similar to what you have told us about the CIS ships." Princess Celestia says.

The clones look at each other.

"No." Mutters Sarge.

<><><>

The CIS Fleet comes out of hyperspace near the planet.

"Sir."

"What?" General Grievous asks angrily.

"We have detected a planet near us, and the Republic ships are nearing our position." The droid reports.

"How long till they come out of hyperspace?" Grievous asks.

"Five minutes? They are hot on our trail."

"Grrrr... Take us close to the planet and prepare for landing." Grievous orders.

"Roger Roger."

At that moment, five Republic ships comes out of hyperspace, battle-ready.

"You incompetent fools! LAUNCH THE STARFIGHTERS *cough*" Grievous orders.

"Roger Roger."

Renegade Paragraphs

                      A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.

                                                         STAR WARS

                                                         EPISODE ?

War Spreads across the galaxy, as numerous planets pledge allegiance to the Separatist Alliance. The outer rim territories are receiving the worst of the war however, as Count Dooku orders the death of Republic Allies. Under the command of General Grievous, the Separatist Flagship "Worthy" jumps into hyperspace, on route for Rhen Var.

With the intent on capturing it for strategic advantage, General Grievous sends out Boarding pods filled with Commando Droids to land on the Surface of the planet and search for signs of republic bases or anything to do with the Republic.

A small Republic Surveillance Crew is stationed on Rhen Var, bored out of their minds. But the Commando Droids Find them, and an Evacuation Ensues....
