Sup guys? Lighting Wolf here, back with another story, this one about Star Wars. Enjoy the 1100- word chapter. I don't own Star Wars, Lucas Art and Disney do.
(Lah'mu 13BBY Raioballo Sector.)
Young 8-year Graver Britrim continued to walk with his Commander: Saw Gerrera, they walked to a small bunker as Graver drew his DL-44 blaster as Saw knocked on the metal as Graver dropped into the bunker and saw a girl who looked like she was his age and clad in simple clothing.
"Are you Jyn? I'm Graver, we're the good guys."
Graver said as Jyn hesitantly nodded as Graver motioned to the ladder as they climbed up the ladder as Graver followed Saw and Jyn towards the UT-60D U wing that had brought him and Saw to the planet, Glaver made sure to stand besides Jyn to make sure she would feel safe.
He also knew they had to leave quickly as the Empire would probably descend on Lah'mu now that they knew the Ersos were on the planet.
That was 13 years ago and it would the start of his friendship with the young girl.
(Yalvin 4, Outer Rim, Gordian Reach, 0 BBY.)
Graver looked down at the Colonel Badge on his chest he looked off to the side where the rest of Bravo one stood, he frowned upon remembering the memory before he turned to meet a man he had known for a few years after he had joined the main Rebels.
Captain Cassian Andor.
"Captain, did you need something? I was just thinking about something important…."
Graver said as the Captain shook his head, Graver had been on a handful of missions when he was a Corporal and Cassian was simply a Private for the Alliance's Intelligence Division while Graver had chosen army special forces.
"Nothing sir… It's nothing, I just wanted to tell you that Bravo one is ready to head out to Wobani… General Draven sighed off and authorized the mission himself."
Cassian stated as the 22-year-old Republic Colonel nodded, dusting off his red jacket and made sure his boots were tightly secured as were his helmet.
"Let's get going then, Captain… We have a schedule to keep… We don't get Erso, we don't get the path to Saw and the new Imperial Project clear."
Graver stated, making sure to keep his voice level as he walked towards the U-Wing, he wouldn't let Cassian know his true feelings towards the mission as he pulled a faceplate over his helmet, hiding his face as he climbed onto the dropship.
He ignored K-2SO's listing off various tech lists and other minor information and looked at his DL-44 heavy blaster pistol as he sighed and checked the power setting, the U-Wing broke orbit and jumped to Hyperspace.
"Jyn is going to hate me… Then again… Saw hurt us both all those years ago… Well, at the very least… I'm breaking her out of jail… Like I did before…"
Graver said to himself, his voice muffed by the faceplate on his helmet as the U-Wing continued to travel through hyperspace as the Colonel looked up at Cassian.
"Cassian, how much do you know about the mission? What did General Draven tell you?"
Graver asked the Rebel Captain as he leaned back in his seat to look at his commanding officer, Sergeant Melshi and his 2 Rebel Soldiers looked up from their seats in the back.
"We're supposed to retrieve Jyn Erso, a fugitive of the Empire, a former soldier for Saw Gerrera and the daughter of Galen Erso… Not much else to know, slip in, neutralize the Imperials, rescue Jyn and take her back to base."
Cassian replied as Graver cursed and looked at the Rebel Intelligence officer before shaking his head.
"That's close, but not quite, Jyn isn't just some random girl… Least in terms of skill, Captain… Let me handle her once she gets out… No offence to you or Sergeant Melshi and his men… But you won't be able to handle Jyn once you break her out…"
Graver muttered as the Rebel Sergeant was about to respond when K-2SO spoke up.
"The odds of Jyn Erso attempting to escape Alliance custody after rescue is 98.25% percent… Colonel Graver is right, caution is advised…. I shall accompany the extraction team… My assistance is required."
The droid put in as Cassian simply nodded, silencing the Rebel Sergeant as the U-Wing continued through hyperspace as Graver closed his eyes, allowing himself to drift to sleep as the trip through hyperspace would take a few hours due to how far away Wobani was.
The last thing the Rebel Colonel remembered saying was for someone to wake him up when they dropped out of hyperspace.
(Wobani, 2 hours later, Bryx system, Imperial Detention and Labor Camp LEG-817)
Bravo One dropped out of hyperspace and descended towards the planet as one of the Rebel Soldiers tapped Graver on his shoulder as the Rebel Colonel woke up as Cassian and K-2SO glided the Rebel ship down to a small clearing as the Rebel squad cleared out.
"Remember, ill handle Jyn, just take out the Stormtroopers and any other Imperials… She's on a HCVwA9 Turbo Tank… I can't believe they're still using them… Thought we were the only ones using them… Wait, wrong model."
Graver muttered as the Rebels spread out, Graver spotted the Turbo Tank that was transporting his long-time friend as the Rebel squad tossed a pair of Ion Grenades that disabled the tank's wheels as they placed a Thermal Detonator on the door as Graver and K-2SO waited at the door as he turned to the Security Droid and held up a hand.
"Please, allow me Kay…"
Graver asked as the sound of 2 blasters went off as Sergeant Melshi and his men could be heard talking in the cabin before the sound of Binders being unlocked was heard before they both heard the sound of a shovel hitting flesh was heard.
Graver tensed as a figure leapt out into open air before Graver reached up, caught the figure and helped Kay wrestle it to the ground.
"Sorry Jyn… Long time no see, huh?"
Graver asked as the girl looked up at her long-time friend's masked face with surprise.
"GRAVER!? WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!?"
