Star Wars
The Fighting 45th
Dan Sullivan stared out the window. At age 26 he had been the youngest jedi master in the history of the order. He was also the second Mandalorian Jedi ever. A clone turned to him. "Mister…"
Dan gave him a sharp look. "It's commander, son, commander Sullivan."
"Sorry sir." Said the clone. " I'm lieutenant shure shot, sir."
"Well lieutenant, do you have any idea why the h*** I'm being called to meet the chancellor."
"No sir, but what time is your meeting."
"14000 Hours."
" That's same as mine."
Then the shuttle shook as it landed. The lieutenant grabbed an old rusted blaster rifle and jumped out. Dan stepped out and walked through the senate halls. He wore rich clothes, and seemed unarmed. But concealed under his robe was a blaster and lightsaber. He was a Mandalorian. He never went anywhere unarmed. He sighed and stepped out.
He had been summoned by the chancellor a week ago and was now here. He stepped into the chancellor's office and immediately hit the deck.
A round of blaster fire hit the wall were his head had been. Dan sprinted forward in a zig-zag pattern, lunging and bringing his open palm into contact with, a, clone?
Chancellor Palpatine began laughing. He smiled as someone from the back of the room said, "well, do he will."
" Master Yoda? "
" Yes Sullivan, that's master Yoda."
"Master Windu?"
" Yes, now let's get down to business. We need another general."
" Then make another d*** Jedi. I don't care"
" You don't understand. We need someone without the qualms and codes of a Jedi but with the powers of a Jedi."
"Then find one for all I care. I'm out."
" You are a god**** Mandalorian, you are our best hope. Please, if not for the Jedi, for the Republic."
"I'm Mandalorian."
"Then do it for Mandalore. Or do you not forget that the separatists are running rampant in the outer rim. Where your home is."
"Fine, but I don't take orders from Jedi."
"You will not need to take orders from anyone but the chancellor and members of the security council. You will also be on par with Master Yoda."
"Great, who do I have."
"You will lead the first star command in the outer rim. You can recruit whoever you d*** like."
"No clones?"
"You will have 800,000 clones, but you will need more to control the outer rim." You will be given 10 dreadnoughts, 12 praetor class battlecruisers, 16 heavy cruisers, 20 heavy frigates, 28 light frigates, 30 light cruisers, 48 assault cruisers, 2 corellian star shuttles, 62 corvettes, 4 stealth ships, all of the fighters, bombers and shuttles in the republic, 20 troop ships, and 100 medical frigates. Along with multiple tug boats, rescue ships along with others. And 20 blastboats. Multiple tanks and walkers. You will be given 1,000,000 credits to use to fund your army. You also may conscript any one in a planetary defence force into your army. Do you understand the importance of this all."
" I understand why you need me, but why do I need you."
"If saving the Republic and Mandalore isn't enough, we can pay."
"No, I will not do it for money. I will do it for the currency of a true warrior. Honor, glory, and purpose."
