Notes: Just as a quick note. The story won't differ much from cannon until the fall of beacon. Just a heads up.
"Flight squadron six requesting permission to deploy"
A voice came on over the intercom "Flight squadron six permission to deploy granted, have a safe flight"
"Alright boys, let's go blast some clankers!"
"Yea!" Numerous voices shouted over the intercom
The starfighters blasted out of the hanger, leaving a gust of wind in their wake.
"General" Said a man dresses in grey, operating one of the terminals
"Yes?" Replied a man wearing standard full set of, grey and dark blue, Mandalorian armour, except for the grey executioner helmet. Two Westar-35 blaster pistols in thigh holders, one grey and blue, single bladed, lightsabre attached to his waist, one double bladed, golden and silver, lightsabre attached to the back of his waist, a grapple hook attached to his right wrist and a typical jetpack on his back, lacking any weapons.
"Fighter squadron six has been deployed"
"Good, prepare fighter squadron seven"
"Yes sir" The man quickly went back to work at his terminal
"General"
"What is it?"
"Were getting a distress communication from attack cruiser two"
"Wait! What?! Send it through immediately" A hologram quickly appeared in the middle of the bridge, revealing a clone taking cover by something while taking shots.
"Who is this?" Asked the clone
"This is General Marec Kar, who is this?"
"I'm commander Rex of the five hundred and first legion, were being overrun here, we need help!"
"What?! Aren't you meant to be the best of the best?"
"Yes! But there are to many clankers for anyone to handle" Rex replied, poison dripping from his voice
BOOM
A loud bang came from the hologram, then it cut out leaving everyone in the bridge in shock. Marec stood there, silently.
"General, what are we supposed to do?"
"We need to rescue them, we can't afford to loose all those men. Assemble a small team of clones from my battalion and send a message to evacuate their ship" At the order everyone quickly went into action, sending messages and preparing ships. "Admiral Aloo"
"Yes?" At the mention of her name the admiral looked away from her terminal.
"Your in charge while I'm gone"
"Thank you for the honour sir" She quickly stood up and saluted.
"Just don't screw up, ok"
"Yes sir"
"Come on Freyu" Marec said to female pantoran, with pristine white hair, a bright orange undershirt, a brown robe going down to her knees, an DC-15 carbine attached to her hip and a silver lightsabre, with a pitch black handle, also on her hip.
"Well this sounds like fun" she said sarcastically
They both quickly left the bridge, heading towards one of the hangers.
They quickly reached the hanger, which was packed with pilots and assistants rushing around doing there various jobs.
"Good to see you general" Said a clone wearing a perfectly white airborne armour, except for the numerous stripes lining it.
"Ah, good to see you Stagger"
"And who is this unique soldier?" Marec said as he pointed towards the clone standing ten meters behind stagger, wearing phase one pitch black armour, which were only interrupted by the red stripes lining it. He also a DC-15 carbine blaster attached to his hip and a DC-15A rifle, that he leaning on.
"That's Ace, he's one of my new, and best, soldiers and he will be accompanying us on this mission. He can be a little... antisocial at times" Stagger said cautiously
"Well, as long as he's a good soldier, that doesn't matter"
"I guess your right" Stagger took a quick glance behind Marec to see Freyu standing there, trying to herself "And who's the little pipsqueak?"
"Please to meet to you, I'm Freyu Unasawe. And please don't call me pipsqueak" She said timidly, while reaching her hand
"*sigh* I'm sorry" Stagger said, reaching his hand out
"It's fine"
"Now that's done with. Let's go and save some clones "
With a loud clank the LAAT landed in the hanger. At that moment a blaze of blaster fire filled the air, hitting the hull of the LAAT. The doors slowly opened as clones, wearing white armour covered in red stripes came rushing out, releasing a flurry of shots, and many quickly dropping dead.
"Advance quickly and find cover!" Shouted Stagger, activating his Z-6 rotary blaster cannon
Then a loud clank rippled through the air, as another LAAT landed in the hanger. As it's doors slowly opened a new wave of clones filed out alongside Marec and Freyu, with their lightsabres activated and a westar-35 blaster pistol in Marec's other hand.
"Ah, Stagger nice to see you're still alive. You having fun here?" Marec said sarcastically
"Good to see you to. Yea, it's been nice" Stagger said as he dived behind a crate
"Master, not the right place for a conversation!"
"Fine, we'll deal with the droids" Marec groaned. He threw his lightsabre at the crowd of droids, cutting a handful of droids "Well, that wasn't helpful" He dived behind the same crate as Stagger, with Freyu closely behind him "Well, what now?".
"All that we can do is slowly grind them down" Said Stagger
"That won't work, they took down the five hundred and first. we need a quick way to destroy all of them"
BANG!
A loud bang filled the air, nocking everything over and kicking up so much dust that everyone became temporarily blind
"CRAP! What just happened!" Marec screamed as he scanned his surrounding. As he found an absence of Freyu he panicked "Freyu! Freyu where are you?!"
"Master, I'm here. Where are you?" Freyu responded, through the dust cloud.
Marec crawled around, searching for Freyu, but due to the vast amount of dust he couldn't even see his hands. As the dust settled everyone's vision returned, to see half of the roof had fallen, crushing all of the droids.
"Crap! What was that?!" Ace exclaimed, with a face of pure terror that could be felt through his helmet.
"Freyu?"
"Yes, master?" She responded leaning against one of the many crate lining the floor.
"Are you ok?!" Marec shouted as he rushed over
"Yea, I'm fine just a bit exhausted"
"Oh, thank the force" Marec sighed
"Well?"
"Well, what?"
"Aren't you going to thank me?"
"Wait, was that you?!"
"Yep"
"Hold on!" Ace shouted " That pips-" Ace was interrupted by an audible pout coming from Freyu coming from Freyu "Um.. so little one caused all that?" Ace pointed at the wreckage that lay before them.
"yep, that was all me" Freyu said proudly
"Ok... remind me not to get on her bad side"
"Don't worry… " As Freyu said as she made a threatening look towards Ace, a gulp could be heard from Ace as he started fast walking away from Freyu.
"Is she ok?" Stagger said rushing over and taking a knee ,while placing his Z-6 rotary blaster cannon to his side.
"yea, she just pushed herself to far"
"Wait. You're telling me that she was the one who did that" Stagger pointed to the roof lying on top of an army of droids
"Sure, that was me" Freyu exclaimed with a pride all over her face
"Captain" A voice came on over Staggers coms "I believe we've found the clones"
"What? Where are they"
"There right by the escape pods, but there's a problem"
"What is it?"
"There trapped by a group of droidekas"
"Wait there, I'm coming to help" AS Stagger ended the communication both Marec and Freyu looked at him, their faces saying everything "We've found the clones but there are a couple of droidekas blocking our path. We need to destroy those clankers if we want to pass"
"Yeah, yeah. I know" Marec said as he helped Freyu back up "I already have an idea, so don't worry"
Blaster shots flew through the air, as a group of droidekas unleashed an unholy fury of shots on the clones, leaving them pinned. They were unable to even run away without being shot. As Marec, Freyu and Stagger arrived they received a hopeful looks from all the clones
"General, what are we going to do?" Asked one of the clones
"You got any EMP grenades?"
"We had some, but they belonged to 'electric' squadron"
"And where are they now"
The clone quickly popped his head over their cover and pointed to eleven bodies lying on the floor, behind the droidekas.
"Well crap. You guys got any ideas?"
"Wait, General you really don't have a plan? But you said you had a plan?" Asked Stagger
"That was my plan. So apart from charging them, I don't have any ideas"
"I think I have one" Commented Freyu
"Well, let's here it"
"Since 'electric' squadron has the EMP grenades we just have to get to them and get them"
"But how do we do that?" Asked Stagger
"You and your men will provide covering fire and I'll make a run for the EMP grenades, while someone draws their fire"
"But who's drawing their fire"
"I don't know. We need someone who is experienced with theses kind of situations an has a weapon that can easily deflect blaster shots"
"Fine" Marec sighed as he started to stand up
"Wait, master are you sure?"
"Do you see anyone else fit for the job? So let's just get this over with" Marec said standing up from his cover, and activated his double bladed lightsabre with two yellow blades came out of it. The droidekas changed their attention from the clones hiding towards Marec. They immediately began a hell storm of shots, with Marec in its way. Marec prepared himself and then spun his lightsabre around like helicopter propellers, deflecting the shots onto the walls and the droidekas shields.
Then while the droidekas were distracted Freyu jumped up over here cover and made a b-line towards the clones lacing the floor. The droidekas tried to quickly readjust their aim, towards Freyu. But they weren't quick enough. within a second she had force jumped from her cover towards one of the bags, all over the floor, and then forced jumped back behind cover. With the EMP grenades now in the hands of Freyu Marec dived back behind the safety of his cover.
"Stagger, pass theses to you're men. Only one per person"
"Yes mam" Stagger said grapping a handful of EMP grenades "Alright men, we got some droid poppers. you know what happens next"
"Well, now you're welcome" Marec said pride filling his voice
"Oh, real mature" Freyu snarled back
"Oh. Don't be so mean. You know you love me" Marec said exaggerating every word
Freyu responded by sticking her tongue . Marec gave loud gasp and grabbed his chest, as to act shocked. Which was quickly followed by the sound of circuits frying and the loud clank sound of the droidekas collapsing onto the floor.
"General!" Shouted Stagger "We've found the clones"
"Well, let's introduce ourselves. How about Freyu?"
Freyu responded with a simple "Fine" and a sigh.
"So, you're the infamous five hundred and first legion. You don't look like much of a legion to me"
"Sorry to disappoint, but this is what is left of us. The rest have already evacuated" replied Rex
"What?! We risked our lives trying to rescue, and you didn't even need help!"
"Yes?"
"Uh... well let's just get the rest of out of her-" Marec was interrupted by the ships alarm going off and red lights flashing
"Master what's going on?!"
"Everyone get in the escape pods, NOW!" At the command everyone started scrabbling into the escape pods lining the walls. But just as Freyu and Marec started to get into one of the escape pods the ship started to rock.
"Crap!" Screamed Freyu
Marec and Freyu started tumble backwards. While Ace and Stagger fell out of one of the escape pods.
"What the-" Ace started shouting, but was cut off by the ship suddenly leaning right, forcing each of them in to escape pods. As they tumbled in the escape pods activated, sending all of them flying out of the ship.
With a loud thunk Marec's escape pod hit the ground, and started skidding across the floor. This resulted in the dirt being uprooted, leaving a clear path of where the escape pod crashed.
"Well, crap. That hurt" Marec groaned. He reached for the escape pod's hatch. He looked at the sky, it was full of sparkling stars and a shattered moon.
