Well there is a first for everything, much like this cringey piece of shit you're going to read. I will give a fair warning, if my typing seems to have sexual connotations in, then it's all flying over my head. And while body parts may be mentioned it would only be for the design of story, although due to the fact that I'm a cringey motherfucker there will likely be scenes of mature content in the future. But until I get the gaul to do so I'll just stick to what I do best, I sure do hope you enjoy. Also question for you guys, what the fuck is 'plox' my friend Gia told me she uses it, then I saw it on the "Welcome to " video. Anyhow this fanfiction is supposed to be set just 5 months after the Battle of Endor, stretching to 2 months before the Battle of Jakku. So 5 months duration.
Chapter 1: From the beginning, you know the end.
"Specter Six, Ezra, I think we should have Juggernaut, and Crimson sound off, it's been 10 hours." Sabine advised turning to him through her sniper veil. Her partner slowly lifted from his prone position, arm pushing the camouflage netting back.
Looking to her he nodded lifting a communicator, "Juggernaut, Crimson, it's been 10 hours. Sound off and give sitreps." After finishing Ezra looked to their positions, they had created a triangular perimeter around the last imperial compound for the region.
"This is Fireteam Juggernaut sounding off, situation is moderate, just tired and hungry as all hell." A small reflective flash came from their position situated near a set of waterfalls across the valley.
"You right now are speaking for us all Juggernaut, Fireteam Crimson sounding off sir, situation moderate." Another flash from the far end of the valley facing the gate.
"Wilco guys, just wait for nightfall and we'll make our move." Ezra stated giving Sabine a quick glance. Slide the netting back over himself peeking through his rangefinder, studying the imperial troops for irregularities or changes in their routine. None. He sighed clearly beyond bored with the tedious tasks.
"What's up Ezra?" Flicking her eyes slightly to view him in her peripheral vision and still have her rifle zeroed on a target.
Ezra pulling the remains of a protein bar from his BDUs and slowly slid half of it into Sabine's hand, thumb gliding over her fingers softly. Seeming very exasperated Ezra replied to her "Bored, tired, and hungry. We've been here for three days watching them do the same thing with little change in their routine; and yes I know that's good and makes them predictable" He gnawed on the stiff protein bar with little effect.
Sabine nudged Ezra with her arm playfully "I'm bored too, just a little longer before we take this last compound down. The fleet should be arriving here in 2..days..." Sabine shifted sliding her left hand beneath the stock. "Ezra, tap their comms, somethings going on."
"Already tapped, and-Gahh!" Ezra quickly ripped the comm piece from his ear looking to the compound. "Shit, secret's out!" He began signalling to the two other teams, quickly getting an extensive response from the other teams.
Sabine flicked the safety off on her blaster rifle, "Forget the rangefinder Ezra, use the A280." Sabine declared, a slight tone of urgency under her calm tone. She found her first target, and imperial officer coordinating his troops around the compound. She inhaled her finger sliding over the trigger. One round is all she needs and all she'll get from this blaster. DLT19X, one shot, one kill. The trigger clicks once...twice...
"KA-CHOW" Watching the blaster bolt arc slightly then hitting her target square in the chest, center of mass as always. Two troopers look back to see their fallen officer, as more troopers arrive to drag his body away. Sabine clicked the cooling lever and witnessed a quick steam flash followed by a quick whistle.
Ezra fired two to four round bursts at the compound, intending to hit his targets without much success, as they fired a green heavy blaster bolt struck one of the speeders that were about to be deployed, Juggernaut is using their Pulse cannon to great effect. Troopers while pinned by unknown hostiles, being surrounded in a scalene triangular pattern by the 3 teams, they continue to form up against the walls hoping to any higher being that their attackers miss. Ezra slides his finger up the receiver to the blaster selector switch, clicking it to the semi-auto function. His finger slides down to the trigger again, he inhales and begins to slowly exhales and slowly eases the trigger back shutting out all the other noise concentrating on an NCO, he's coordinating the troopers. Was handing out orders, Ezra watched as his head snapped to the right, and fall limply. Ezra watched a second more watching the troopers stewed brains and blood seep out of the entry hole in the side of his helmet.
"POP!" the resonates throughout the small valley a second after another trooper gets nailed, this time by Crimson, they're widely known for utilizing projectile based weapons, not energy based weapons. Ezra peeks over to Crimsons position noticing that troopers were pointing to their area, 'Dammit Crimson' Ezra thought to himself as he started sending signal flashes to them, telling them to, 'reposition and re-engage with different weapons"
A reply quickly follows...not to Ezra's liking or having any tactical viability "Negative ghost, we have them pinned" Sabine fired another round bringing Ezra out of his issue with Crimson and concentrated on shooting again.
"It's alright Ezra just keep fighting." Sabine said as she took a pot at the compound bunker bulkhead.
"Something's not right there's no trooper replenishment, thought's Sabine?" Ezra fired at a trooper making a run for a turret, dropping him.
Sabine tunes everything out looking around her field of view, one thing garnered her attention, the compound gate...it was wide open, a tactical mistake not even rookie bucket-heads would make. She studied that for a second more until she saw a rock randomly move and kick some dirt up, then it dawned on her, the imps were sneaking Dark Troopers behind their asses. That was when this Op fell to pieces...Sabine, Ezra and Juggernaut heard it, Crimson felt it, the imperials had called in an orbital and Sabine were in utter shock momentarily until something felt tense behind him. Ezra spun around throwing his blaster rifle into the gut of a shadow trooper. Sabine didn't have time to gather herself, she twisted around with her blaster rifle only to have it grabbed by a shimmer. Ezra got tackled by another shimmer, Sabine her left arm forcibly moved to the ground beside her, she was struggling against these guys, but putting up a fight until she pulled the trigger, a blaster bolt blew a hole in the side of the Dark troopers head, his limp body collapsing on the top half of Ezra while another continues to punch him just below his ribs. The Dark Trooper holding the muzzle of Sabine's rifle stomped her upper right arm, she groaned in pain, the trooper slammed the butt of the rifle into her helmet five times before flipping it around. "Rebel scum."
Just as he was about to pull the trigger killing Sabine witnessed a blur tackled him...to the ground, there was a loud crack. Sabine felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, although ignoring it she swung her right leg another Dark Troopers helmet and pushing him over the cliffside, he held to her arm for dear life. More pain, a searing pain. She grabbed her Westar from her chest rig that was sitting next to her and popped a round in the troopers face his grip loosened immediately and he made a rapid descent down the valley. She was feeling weak, in excruciating pain, as she got up to help Ezra, her gear belt slid off, only the belts around her thighs that secured her holsters to them kept the rig on her. She tried to clip it back on only to see the buckle was completely destroyed and the ends drenched in blood...she looked down and saw it, that bastard trooper had shot her and was beating Ezra with the help of another trooper. She grabbed her carbine off her equipment pack and fired, but she missed, this gave Ezra the opportunity to retaliate while the troopers had their attention divided.
Ezra pulled his lightsaber to him activating it, sliding it into the gut of the trooper he tackled and kicking the other over the cliff. He looked to Sabine and the world shut down...she stood there her left hand over a bloody wound and her grip and stance losing strength quickly, he ran to her. "SABINE!" he slowly moved her hand out of the way quickly examining the wound before glancing to the compound, there was an entire battalion moving to out. He scrambled to his gear bag and grabbed a bacta injector and a bacta patch. He knew it would be more painful without the anesthetics but they ran out weeks ago, he slid his hand in hers and he addressed her wound. She squeezed his hand with ferocity as the pain tripled itself, she released an excruciating scream that echoed the canyon.
He wrapped her lower abdomen in bacta wrapping, not caring about how much he used. Ezra scurried over to collect their gear and equipment, sliding a comm piece into his ear and re tapping their comms. "All troopers pursue and destroy, bring their heads to me." Ezra helped Sabine up, sliding his arm around her back and pulling her right arm over her shoulder grasping her hand tightly. They began their trek back to their speeder bike. Going as fast as possible, with stormtroopers hot on their heels.
