(Geonosis)

The Battle of Geonosis was under way after the rescue of Anakin Skywalker, Obi wan Kenobi and senator Padme Amidala from the coliseum the clones were being dropped in by gunships. On the second wave a clone battalion was to take out a droid factory east of the main battle and in this battalion was a clone sergeant unlike the rest for you see he was older than all the clone under his command and he was also not from Jango Fett's DNA but an unknown donor as an experiment to see if a clone that was unaltered with accelerated aging. Out of 1000 troopers made for the experiment only one survived, he was able to serve due to his experience and acing every test that they through at him. But he was heavily discriminated against due to not being from Jango's DNA so he keeps his helmet on almost all the time. He had received clone commando training as well as prove himself to be trained by Jango Fett as an ARC trooper, with all this training he was now leading a squad of nine troopers in to combat as the LZ got closer he looked around the gunship at his nine troopers all armed with DC-15 blasters they were ready for anything.

The Gunship touched down with him as the first off landed with another two squads with a lieutenant who ordered the them to move out as to reach the rest of the battalion. They had to go through a narrow mountain pass in order to get there, this would be their downfall as the Separatist had set up an ambush in the pass. Beset by all sides one by one the troopers died thinking quickly he hid under the fallen and waited, the blood from his fallen brothers dripped on to his helmet and armor a dust storm had just started to kick up and clung to the blood on his armor. He could hear the clanking of droids and the rustling of Geonosisian wings , he waited until they were right on top of him and like a vengeful spirit he sprung from the dead blasting anything that moved when he ran out of charge he switched to his viroblades. Three hours later a clone patrol found the sergeant sitting at the entrance of the pass, covered from head to toe in dust, coolant and blood on his helmets faceplate was the form of a skull. That was the day the story of the trooper known as 'Ghost' was born.

(Courasant)

In the lower levels of Courasant filled with low lives, smugglers, criminals and Bounty Hunters was a crime lord with a massive bounty on his head, He thought that he could intimidate anybody he wanted until everyone on the level wanted him dead. Putting their money together for a bounty at a series of secret meetings they were able to hire a Mandalorian bounty hunter, the Mandalorian was dressed in ancient armor with a gold engraved faceplate, two shoulder pads over top a crimson cloak. He was currently carrying two WESTAR-35 blaster pistols and a MEI Viroaxe, he was currently walking to the targets stronghold anybody that saw him immediately got out of the street. Now he was standing ten feet from the main gate to the stronghold not a guard in site, he walked up to the gat and planted a few thermal charges and walked back to his original position. He set them off blowing the main gate wide open as the gang members where regaining their senses they saw him walk through the gate drawing his WESTAR pistols and started blasting, the gang started to drop like flies for they were no match for the highly trained Mandalorian warrior. After dispatching the members outside the main compound he proceeded inside where he was met with more gang members, he smiled under his helmet and once again started his 'Target Practice' again.

A human by the name of Rylon Cric the notorious crime lord was currently sweating bullets, why because a bounty hunter was making quick work of his entire gang as if they were nothing but stationary targets at a shooting range. He was throwing everything he had at this guy he even sent out his elite guard to try and kill him. After a while the sounds of blasting died down to nothing, he waited and waited when all of a sudden the door slide open and showed the bounty hunter. Rylon was now trying to make himself as small but it wasn't working the bounty hunter walked over to him and grabbed him by his collar and slammed him against the wall behind him. That's when he started to beg, "Please don't kill me I can give you anything you want money, women, power anything you want! Just don't kill me please!"

The bounty hunter watched this and said with a tone of disgust, "Funny thing is that when I take a job I don't back out of it, but what makes you think that I want anything scum like you has to offer?" he then pointed his WESTAR pistol at his head. Rylon kept trying to pled for his life until the bounty hunter pulled the trigger.

The bounty hunter looked at the body of Rylon when he got a message on his data pad, He pulled it out to see that he was getting a request by the Republic,

'Dear Naak'Cabur

We request your skills for a series of bounties for Confederation of Independent Systems HVT's these bounties are all Capture if possible but killing is authorized.'

Naak'Cabur looked at this message and smirked before turning and walking out of the now devastated stronghold to collect his bounty, thinking about how this war will turn out.

(Unknown Moon)

A massive ancient temple that was the home of the Knights of Reven sat on a lone peak it was built out of black stones and into the mountain itself. If a Jedi was to set foot in temple they would feel a presence of the dark side of the force as well as the light side the two were seeming to keep each other in balance. As you go into the temple it looks like no one had lived in the temple for centuries that is until you travel farther in, coming upon a room filled with candles on the far side of the room in front of the candles was a figure in all black ancient samurai armor with his helmet sitting in front of him this is the Grandmaster of the knights of Reven Hines Ren he is also currently the only member of this ancient order as well. He was meditating feeling the force to find out what was happening in the galaxy, "So the seeds of war have been sown." he said as he grabbed his helm and stood up.

He turned and left the room but used the force to blow out every single candle in the room, he walked down the corridor until he came up to a massive door that would only open to his input or the force. When it did open a series of light started to flicker on and from wall to wall there was light sabers some looked millennia old while some looked brand new and in the center of the room was two unique light sabers one was a cross guard light saber like most of the light sabers in the armory but this one was one of the only two black Kyber crystals ever found, the other was unique in the form of that it was sheathed in a scabbard in the shape of a katana and had a single strip of metal going down the spine and when the saber is ignited is forms the rest of the katana it has a pure white Kyber crystal in the hilt. This room was the armory of the temple and the resting place of the only katana light saber is located, it belonged to the last grandmaster centuries ago. Hines picked up his light saber as well as the katana saber and strapped both to his hip, He then put his helmet on and walked to the hanger where his own personal starship resided. The starship was an old D5 Mantis Patrol craft he walked in and sat in the pilot seat and powered the ship up and began take off, "War might be on everyone's minds now but I sense a large dark side presence influencing these events from the shadows." he said as his ship broke away from the moons gravity he put the coordinates for Naboo to start his search. After they were in he grabbed the handle for the hyper drive and said, "Well I guess I had to return to the rest of the Galaxy eventually." he then disappeared into Hyper space.
