Hello all, I'd like to welcome you all to my first story on fan ficiton. There is one thing I would like to point out before the story begins so that there is no confusion. the story is entirely written in third person but will follow Ignacio "Iggy" Scruggs. Thanks for reading, write a review if you liked it, and write a review if you hated it!

Iggy was not particularly worried even though no one was ever called down to his squad leader's office since she was someone who liked her privacy. He thought maybe she finally accepted his romantic advances on her and was going to confess her love to him. Although she was a Twi'lek and he was not usually attracted to alien species she was an exception, he wasn't sure what it was but something about her screamed for his attention. The numerous rejections only encouraged him to try harder and since she never showed any emotions other than the hardened veteran look she always had, he thought that he was beginning to make progress. The second he walked through the door and saw her standing next to an older man in a crisp gray uniform and a small grey goatee, he knew his assumptions were wrong. The two senior officers stopped their small talk when Iggy walked into the office, he remembered his etiquette and threw a sharp salute and stood at attention with his hands clasped behind his back. His squad leader was nearly scowling at him and the older officer motioned for him to take a seat. Iggy cautiously took a seat, feeling like he was getting set up for a trap.

TheOfficer with the goatee looked down at a clipboard he was holding and then back up at Iggy.

"Ignacio B. Scruggs." The officer said with an inflection that made it impossible to tell if he was asking a question or whether he was merely stating a fact.

There was an uncomfortable moment of silence before the officer went on. "I am Gunnery Sergeant Stays, I assume you know why you are here."

Iggy was caught off guard. "No sir, I have no idea why I was called down, sir"

GSG Stays raised an eyebrow and glanced over at his squad leader. "Senior sergeant Agol'ra here," He motioned toward his squad leader "She tells me that you sexually harass her nearly every day and it has come to a point where it is beginning to interfere with her missions."

Iggy was taken aback. "I don't know what you're talking about sir, I wasn't aware that I was harassing anyone. "

His squad leader, who had been silent and sitting at her desk up until that point suddenly burst out of her seat, grabbed Iggy by the collar of his uniform, lifted him out of his chair and pushed him back again a wall face.

"You know damn well you've been harassing me, how dare you lie about it in the presence of two senior officers."

GSG Stays spoke up. "Take a seat Agol'ra."

She didn't loosen her grip. "If I ever catch you coming on to me again, I will personally break your jaw so no other woman has to listen to the shit that comes out of your mouth."

"That's enough!" Shouted the gunnery sergeant.

His squad leader let go of him, smoothed out his uniform with a politeness that only instilled fear into him. He stood against the wall for a moment longer before realizing that gunnery sergeant Stays war waiting for him to sit back down.

"Senior sergeant Agol'ra has suggested you be removed from Crater squad."

Iggy just nodded furiously, not looking up because he could feel the cold stare of his squad leader's eyes on him.

"Then that is all, I expect you to get your things packed from the barracks and we will send a datapad shortly informing you of your new accommodations, you are dismissed corporal."

Iggy jumped up and threw a hasty salute then shuffled out of the office, he could hear the gunnery sergeant scolding his old squad leader for being so violent. He leaned back against the wall, people gave him quick glances as they walked by but he didn't mind. His heart finally began to go down to its normal rate and his head began to clear, he had never been so intimidated by a woman in his life. He began the short walk back to the barracks, hopefully if he got there early enough, his squad mates would still be out, finishing up their training so he could pack his things and go in peace.

When he arrived, he immediately began to pack but with each thing he put into his boxes he felt more and more crushed. The gunnery sergeant had not mentioned a transfer and he had not said that he would be relocated to another barracks. Iggy's dream was to make it to the top of the army, and he realized now that his dream may have just been crushed. Furthermore, his father would be furious. It took years of convincing since his early childhood to let get his father to allow him to join the army instead of joining the successful family trading business. If he ever got word that he was kicked out of the army for sexual harassment he would never live it down and would always be a failure in his father's eyes.

He kept packing, moving at a quicker pace, thinking that the sooner he finished, the sooner the feeling would pass but even after he had gotten his things and left the barracks he felt like a weight was sitting on his shoulders. As he was about to leave from the front of the barracks a young boy came running up to him and handed him a datapad.

"From gunnery sergeant Stays." The boy saluted and then ran off.

Iggy was almost afraid to look at the datapad, but did so since the daylight was beginning to fade. When he read the first two lines he felt the weights leave his shoulder and he let out a sigh of relief and exhaled. He had been unaware that he was holding his breath.

"You have been transferred to Phalanx Squad. Please familiarize yourself with your squad mates, they are preparing to embark on a mission in a week's time. The sooner you create a bond with them the better. "He read on, his punishment was stated out. "You have also been put on probation, any bad reports from any of your superiors and you will have to go to court and we will determine at that time whether you are going to be held responsible and whether or not you will be court-martialed. The administration takes things like this very seriously. . ."

Iggy didn't bother reading the rest, it was all crap he had heard and read before while he was going through the academy. He did make a mental note to watch his behavior, not wanting to repeat anything that had happened with Crater Squad. He followed the instruction on the datapad to the location of the barracks and when he swiped his ID card, the doors opened with a silent gush of air. The barracks looked nearly identical to his old one other than a chessboard and a pool table in the corner.

Out of the shadows a hand grasped his shoulder, Iggy jumped and nearly punched the man in the face. The man laughed, "Whoa there, I'm , master sergeant Briggs, your new squad leader. The others should be returning soon so make yourself comfortable."

Iggy saluted his new squad leader, "I'm corporal - "

"Ignacio B. Scruggs, but you go by Iggy right? I've read your whole file." Master sergeant Briggs cut in, smiling.

Iggy nodded, and then began to wonder if he knew everything about him. As if reading his mind master sergeant Briggs began talking again.

"I know about your little run in with Akol'ra, but between you and me, she's a hot head, you wouldn't want her anyways." He said with a wink.

Iggy was taken aback by the informality of his new squad leader, but he couldn't say that he was complaining. Iggy smiled and thanked his new squad leader for understanding. He took a seat on the couch in front of the holonet and turned it on after master sergeant Briggs left the barracks to return to his own personal room. Iggy nervously waited for his new squad mates to arrive as he flipped through channel after channel, using the noise to fill up the emptiness of the room.
