I own nothing except a few characters and the plot.
STAR WARS REBELS
The New Spectres
Noah's Sister
STAR DESTROYER CHIMAERA
"All bodies recovered are Remnant personnel. As for the other ship our prisoner told us about. It crashed on Gratha. IDF sent a fleet to check it out. They have the captain in custody on board a ship called the Yonathan." Reige said as he entered the room that Thrawn had taken over.
"I wonder if Captain Canady knows anything about what happened to General Rodgers' shuttle." Thrawn said.
"I've already informed them and General Felth of what happened. They are planning to interrogate the captain as soon as he recovers from his injuries." Reige told them.
"Thank you, Commander." Hera said.
"We have to find Noah's sister." Lucy said.
"Does anyone want me to take these kids to the galley?" Reige asked.
"I don't know about Darius, but this is normal family dinner table conversation for me and Lucy." Josh said earning a punch in the arm from Darius.
"We're definitely growing on you." He said to Darius.
"That was the whole idea." Ezra said to Hera who simply smiled.
"Reige to the bridge. Set our course for Earth."
"Yes, Sir." Came the reply.
NEW YORK
Reige's report had reached New York long before the Chimaera arrived. Tevin was sitting in Michael's office discussing it with him and Admiral Piett.
"I asked the acting CO out there if he was given anything regarding Noah's sister and who else was on that shuttle. As soon as they find the files, they'll let me know." Tevin said.
"What about this other incident on board the Chimaera? The internal problem, not the Varox?" Michael asked.
"Captain Plye is being removed from his command and will face court-martial. Michael is considering putting Commander Reige up for promotion as per Grand Admiral Thrawn's recommendation." Piett said.
"Next part. Who wants to tell Noah?"
"Tell me what?" Noah asked from the doorway.
"How much did you hear?" Tevin asked.
"The Chimaera's getting a new Captain."
"Sit down." Michael said and used The Force to close the door as Noah sat down next to Tevin.
"Where do you and your sister stay when your parents go to those yearly conferences?"
"Last time, they left us home alone."
"No surprise there." Tevin said.
"Why? Is it true? Did the First Order attack their shuttle?"
"Who told you?"
"Josh, he told me their shuttle was attacked about an hour ago when he told me another bigot came out of the closet and Darius was hitting him. I was eating cake when I heard someone say my name."
"Did he tell you that they didn't survive?" Michael asked."
"He didn't tell me that. But, I think he was trying to soften the blow."
"I hope your sister wasn't left home alone again." Tevin added.
"Dad said if someone had a problem with us being home alone, he'd send us to LA and leave us with Erik." Firmus opened the door.
"Radar, get General Gonzalez on the telephone."
"What happens now?" Noah asked.
"We're going to bring your sister to New York and Michael's going to take care of both of you."
"In other words, nothing except that my sister joins us."
"I already told him what was being planned before all of this and don't use my stare on me. Only Kelsey is allowed to do that." Michael said as Tevin gave him a look.
Two Death Troopers escorted a handcuffed Plye off the Astro Megaship while the bodies were offloaded from the Ghost and loaded into a van. Tevin showed up soon after and went straight to Josh.
"Thanks for telling him. It made things a lot easier."
"It was Lucy's idea. If he knew most of what happened, he'd take the worst part of it easier. How is Noah?" Josh said.
"To him, nothing is changing other then his sister joining him and you." Darius, Lucy, and R9 came up beside Josh followed by Reige.
"Commander Vitor Reige."
"General Tevin Felth."
"I understand Admiral Piett wishes to see me about the incident with my former superior."
"He does." Something caught Reige's eye causing him to make a face.
"What is that?" Tevin turned to see Klinger in a new outfit complete with purse and shoes.
"Oh no. Klinger, what are you doing that is absolutely not happening?" The Corporal ignored Tevin and walked straight to Thrawn.
"Grand Admiral Thrawn, sir. Corporal Klinger. I'm unfit for service from head-to-toe. I'm wearing a bra. I play with dolls. My last wish is to be buried in one of my mother's gowns. I'm nuts. I should be out." Tevin signaled for a pair of Stormtroopers to take Klinger away.
"Fascinating." Thrawn said.
"I should just have him bunk in the brig since he spends so much time there." Tevin said to himself as his phone rang.
"Radar, this better be important. Shuttle? From where? How long? I'll have someone meet them here. We're on our way back. Get the Death Troopers to throw them out of the building again and fumigate that men's room. We'll discuss how they got in later."
"Something?" Hera asked as Tevin hung up.
"Shuttle coming in from LA with Noah's sister and Colonel Jensen. Where's the wreckage?"
"Still on the Chimaera. I thought it was better left there until it was processed as evidence of a crime and to keep the scavengers away from it." Reige said.
"I'll send someone up to document it." An hour later, everyone had returned to Manhattan where Admiral Piett took Reige's statement about Plye's hate-filled comments. The kids had been left in the kitchen as usual where they found Noah had eaten half of a chocolate cake..
"You know if you don't stop eating that cake, I'm gonna have to start making fun of you and calling you a manatee or something." Josh said to Noah. Lucy promptly smacked him.
"Don't even. You have to go home to that." She said.
"Besides, I haven't cleaned out a Chinese Buffet yet." Noah said.
"And all my fat jokes are about women anyway. Ow!" Josh added causing Lucy to kick him.
A shuttle landed at Floyd Bennett Field next to a group of TIE Fighters. Landon pulled up a minute later as its passengers exited.
"You must be McKnight. Colonel Erik Jensen and this is Noah's sister Tori. I was expecting Corporal Klinger." Erik Jensen said.
"He's in the brig for no-selling his crazy act to a Grand Admiral." Landon told Erik.
"This First Order must be getting out of hand if Pellaeon's here."
"Not him, Thrawn."
"I'm hungry. That ride was a nightmare." Tori Rodgers said.
"The Mess Hall is right where it was when you left." Landon said before turning to Erik.
"Everyone's in Manhattan." After an hour and a half of eating and driving, the three arrived at the office.
"Colonel Jensen and Tori Rodgers are here. He's meeting and greeting, she's in the kitchen with the rest of the kids. He expected Klinger." Landon said to Tevin and Michael. Tori walked into the kitchen and gave Noah a hug before moving onto Lucy.
"Where did you get that outfit?" Tori asked looking a Lucy's clothes.
"Him." Lucy replied pointing at Darius.
"Not what it sounds like. I work at a clothing store." Darius said.
"She's more of a tomboy." Josh added.
"I just don't feel comfortable looking like a prostitute. Beaches and pools are another story." Lucy said.
That night, Tori went home with Noah and the Myers.
"I'm guessing that someone is going to get the rest of our stuff." Tori said.
"Colonel Jensen said he was making those arrangements personally." Michael told her as he drove.
"I'm guessing that means he's doing it himself." Noah told her.
"I wouldn't trust the rank and file to do things like that. Their idea involves throwing everything in a dumpster." Josh told them as Michael slowed down and pulled into a driveway.
"Us, Felths, Doyles." He said and pointed at three houses.
"The guy on the other side of the Felths is also okay. He might seem strange, but just think of Wilson from Home Improvement." Noah added.
"As for the Felths themselves, the only big changes relate to Lucy. Darius is her boyfriend and the droid that was next to her at the office is hers. Also watch out for the assassin droids hidden in the bushes. You don't want to know how many Jehovah's Witnesses they've gotten over the years." Josh told her as they got out and walked inside.
"I left those in Haddonfield. That's why the Marshalls put Jacen in our old house there. As for the Jehovah's Witnesses, they stopped coming around this neighborhood for some reason. I think it was either the old man on the other side of the Felths or the Felths themselves. One too many lectures from C-3PO about disturbing the kids over there." Michael told him. Inside, Michael showed Tori to her room.
"It's not much until your stuff arrives, but Kelsey's probably on a shopping spree to get more stuff for you. Anything else?"
"I should be good."
"If you ever need to talk to someone, someone is usually around. Kelsey's lab is always a good place to start. She very seldom leaves it." Michael said and started to leave.
"Did Tevin ever get rid of that hairy guy in a dress who does all those shows on the plaza?"
"Klinger? He's in and out of the brig these days. I think he's the one letting Sylvia and Morty into the building and letting Radar get in trouble for it." Michael chuckled to himself as he went to the kitchen to see what he had to feed the kids while Tori went to visit the boys. She found Noah awake while Josh had passed out.
"Something?" Noah asked.
"Just missed having you around. Dad got worse after you left. He started doting on me like he was afraid I was going to take his shuttle for a joyride too."
"Having the crew do wallpaper and tile in bathrooms didn't help. They probably would have taken you on a ride too." The two looked at the sleeping Josh as if expecting him to wake up and say something. Tori eventually took Josh's shoes off and covered him up.
"He's so peaceful when he's asleep." She said.
"The only time he's not making wisecracks or insulting people." Noah added before getting under his blankets himself. Tori turned off the lights in the room and went back to her room before collapsing into her bed and falling asleep. A couple of hours later, Kelsey Myers checked on the three kids and found them all sound asleep.
"They're asleep. Ours too." She said.
"Ours had a long day." Michael said as he read a e-mail from Michael Piett.
"As Thrawn hoped, Vitor Reige is being promoted to Captain and given command of the Chimaera. Plye is up on charges, the Varox that attacked the Chimaera is locked up, and the First Order captain that attacked the kids last week looking for his leader has joined his leader in an Israeli jail." He said to a now sleeping Kelsey before putting the tablet on a nightstand, using The Force to shut off the lights, and falling asleep himself.
The next morning, Landon took Josh, Noah, Lucy, and R9 to school as usual while Michael and Kelsey took Tori to the office.
"It's so late in the school year that the paperwork to get you in wouldn't be done until July, besides all of this is a good reason for you to miss a month anyway. I went through all of this with Josh when we moved here."
"I figured that. It was a nightmare when we moved out there. Noah and I didn't start until October." Tori told him as Jacen brought Noah into Michael's office.
"Sloane and Fanes said he could miss as long as he needs to. That entire base heard what happened to their parents. Some Star Destroyer captain locked in the brig has a big mouth" He said as Tevin walked in.
"Jacen, tell your mom she's allowed to throw Plye in the bay if he doesn't stop calling her a prostitute and other nasty names and tell them that they can let Klinger out and put him on the next bus up here."
"Will do." Jacen said and started to leave.
"What's that smell?" He asked Tevin and Michael.
"Morty, there's no smoking allowed in here and how did you get in the building again? Radar, we need a men's room sprayed down with Glade again." Tevin called forgetting what he wanted to talk to Michael about. Noah and Tori looked at each other.
"I miss this place." She said.
"Welcome back to the Insane Asylum." Noah added causing Michael to grin.
