Closure of two brothers
Chapter 8: Launched, and never to be seen again.....
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAdmiral Trench watched as the ten commando droids, along with three clones, boarded the ship. They each carried standard republic blasters (yes, the ones they used in the clone wars), with the exception of three of the commandos, which wielded vibro-swords.
"Sir, your ship is ready for launch. But you've been ordered to wait, as Lord Vader would like to say goodbye to you personally." Admiral Trench stroked his fangs and made his unusual clicking noise, looking to the clone.
"Tell Lord Vader that salutations can wait for later. Appo has already prepared our IDH.... (IDH stands for interdimensional hyperdrive)." The clone saluted.
"Understood sir. I will see you after we execute those..... traitors." Trench stroked his fangs, shaking his head.
"They aren't traitors. They just found the..... simple way out of this new war, against the Jedi." The clone nodded, walking away from Trench, who was looking at the ship.
"It is time to go......" Trench said, walking towards the entrance of his ship. He stepped onto the platform, which slowly closed as he finished walking in. He opened the door to the passenger area, seeing ten droids and two clones, fully strapped in with their weapons.
"Kix, hand me my medications." Trench said, Kix grabbing his backpack from the ground. He pulled out a syringe.
"Sir, should I inject it for you?" Kix asked, Trench nodding. Now, let's pause for a moment. Why would Trench need medications? Well, his cybernetic parts are..... Harmful to his body. It's like eating..... copper, yet just more harmful. Now, back to the story. Kix injected Trench's medications in his neck. Trench shivered, feeling the syringe going into his neck. The bacta flooded into his neck softening his muscles. The syringe slipped out.
"Thank you, Kix. Not, get yourself ready for this. We may not make it back......" Trench said, walking up to the door of the cockpit. The door automatically opened, revealing two seats, Appo in one of them. Trench sat in the empty seat.
"Well, Appo? How is... Progress?" Appo looked to the screen of his holopad.
"The Lightsaber Crystal seems to be stable at the moment, sir. I can't say the same for when we launch...." Appo said, looking to Trench, who pressed the communications button.
"Permission to launch, CS-4198?" He asked the starboard crew.
"Sir, you have specific orders from Lord Vader to NOT launch. Seeing that you are a higher rank than him, are you going to override those orders?" Trench stroked his fangs, making his usual clicking noise.
"Yes, override those orders." He said, hoping that Vader was not on the bridge.
"Okay, you are cleared for launch, IDS." The clone said from the other side. Appo proceeded to take the ship outside of the day shields. After he left the hangar, he spoke in the intercom.
"Okay you guys. We're clear for hyperspace in 10.... 9....." The Admiral closed his eyes during the rest of the countdown, hoping that they would survive.
"2..... 1...... And here we go!!" Appo said, pulling a lever. The Admiral sat down as the Lightsaber Crystal glowed. Soon, the ship disappeared from the dimension of the Empire, not knowing that they would never return.
Cody and Rex snuck into CHS when everyone left. Nobody watching, they opened the door to the school.
"I say that we grab a drink after this, eh?" Rex nudged Cody, who chuckled.
"As long as we're not getting drunk. That wouldn't be too good...." Cody said, chuckling. Rex took off his helmet.
"First, we smell like a herd of bantha. Let's head to the showers." Rex said, pointing to the nearby door.
"Alrighty then. Let's go." Cody said, taking off his armor pieces one by one. Rex did the same. When they walked into the shower rooms, all they had left were black full body suits.
Fluttershy sat in her pajamas, a notebook in hand. She was staying at Rarity's house for a sleepover, which means that she.... and the other girls got a makeover. Rarity already cleaned off her back and put alcohol on it, ensuring that it wouldn't get infected.
"Is everything alright, darling?" Rarity asked. Fluttershy nodded as she clenched the book in her hands, hugging it to no end.
"Well.... Why don't you tell us about your... ehem... Experience?" She asked. The girls payed close attention to Fluttershy.
"Well.... Let's just say that I found my knight in shining armor....." She said, opening her notebook. She stroked her hand against a picture of her and Cody, who were holding hands.
"And that would be?!" A huge grin came across Rarity's face, as she shook her head.
"It's sort of a.... secret thing." She said, closing the notebook. Her friends looked to each other.
"But.... Can't you tell us a LITTLE spoiler, please?" Fluttershy giggled.
"He's a really nice person." She said, blushing, yet smiling.
Fives stood in the shower room behind a wall, where the sinks were located, hearing the conversation between the two other clones. He put his pistol in hand, preparing to strike at any moment.
"Hey, Cody?" Rex said as he turned off his shower. Cody did the same.
"I have a feeling that we aren't..... Alone in here." Rex said, opening the curtain of this shower. He was fully dressed.
"What do you mean? Did you take anything before we left?" Rex held his head.
"No.... I'm feeling that there's...... I don't know. I'm not a Jedi, but I can tell that we aren't alone, Cody." Rex said, a serious look in his eye. Cody walked out of his shower, fully dressed.
"Come on, brother. Why don't we go get a drink?" Cody said, walking by the wall. He looked over, seeing that the space was empty.
"Yeah.... I guess I'm just thirsty. Let's go." Rex said, opening to door to the shower room. After he left, door closed, Fives turned his cloaking device off.
"I'm afraid that this is gonna be your last drink, boys......"
