Hello there. Sorry about the wait. Here is the next chapter! Hope y'all enjoy!


CT-5711 was unpacking his kit in his barracks. It had been about three hours since the General had been reported missing and most of the clones were out searching for him. The commander had ordered all of the shinies to report to their assigned barracks until further instruction.

So that is what the newbie was going to do. He was very excited to be out in the field with his older brothers and wasn't going to mess up on his first day.

After putting away what little possessions he had, CT-5711 pulled out a pair of needles and a ball of black and white yarn.

Buzzer noted the supplies and let out a groan. "You seriously brought your knitting supplies! Kriff, little bro! We're in a war!"

"Knitting makes me happy! And it calms my nerves…"

"Right…" Buzzer facepalmed. "What are you nervous about this time?"

"Well, our General is missing-"

"I've been told he does that. A lot. It's a weekly occurrence."

"-and I promised you a scarf, remember?" CT-5711 grinned at Buzzer, who shut up real quick. Scarfs made by the clone were considered a thousand credits in the eyes of any of his brothers back on Kamino. They were soft, warm, and gave some sort of comfort to them.

CT-5711 went back to knitting as his fellow brothers finished unpacking and slowly exited the tent. He shrugged and mumbled to himself, "Maybe I should get some orange yarn for some color…" It would match the 212th nicely.

He hadn't been five minutes alone when a small ball of fur sprinted into the tent and dove under the clone's bed. CT-5711 fell back in shock, tumbling off his bed and on the ground. He looked up and found a trembling puppy with bright blue-gray eyes. The clone got on his knees before calling in a soft voice. "Don't be frightened. I won't hurt you…"

The puppy crawled on his stomach, poking his head out from under the bed.

"That's it. It's all right." CT-5711 smiled and put out his hand. He let out a small laugh as the dog began to lick his hand and let out playful and cute barks. He wagged his tail and pounced on the clone, sending him on his back.

CT-5711 laughed and scratched the little dog behind the ears. "Aww… ain't you the cutest thing?" He picked up the dog and cradled it in his arms. "Don't you worry, little guy. Everything is going to be alri-"

The door to the tent was flung open and in sprinted Commander Cody with a frantic look on his face, "Have you seen-?" His voice abruptly cut off as he caught sight of the shiny with the dog in his arms.

Waxer and Boil filed in behind Cody, Waxer grinning broadly.

CT-5711 looked up, his smile dying slightly. "Um… I didn't bring the dog in. It came in by itself. Please don't be mad."

Cody was vaguely reminded of a tiny child pleading to not be in trouble. "Don't worry, I believe you." His gaze turned to the dog. "General, do you want to get the shinies in trouble?"

The dog started to whine softly. CT-5711 looked down at the dog, scratching him behind the ear. "Is that his name? General? Do we have a dog in the 212th?"

Cody pinched his nose. "No. Apparently, General Kenobi got turned into a puppy…somehow."

The scratching stopped and the shiny froze. He looked up, his face turning into horror. "You mean… this is the General? As in General Kenobi?"

"Apparently so." Cody felt a little guilty as the shiny's face fell.

"Oh." The clone put the dog on the ground, trying to hide his disappointment and embarrassment. He had just been petting his General. That was weird on so many levels. To his surprise, the puppy turned back around and placed his paws on the clone, whining and barking to be picked up again.

Cody stared for a moment, before sighing. "Go ahead, soldier. He seems to enjoy you."

CT-5711 picked up the dog again and hesitantly cuddled against him, "He's so cute! I know he's the general, but look at him!" The clone grinned at his commander, who just shook his head.

This was the scene that Captain Rex, Anakin, and Ahsoka found a few minutes later. All were confused, but none were willing to tear the tiny puppy from the clone, as both appeared to be enjoying themselves.

Anakin leaned over to Cody and mumbled, "The Jedi Council wants to see the General. We're being ordered back to Coruscant until further notice."

"I'll tell the men."

"We leave as soon as possible…" Anakin glanced over at his barking master. "I think the Council is going to be very surprised."


GAH, the fluff! Honestly, I don't know how this idea popped into our heads. It's a little of the wall and is in no way canon-compliant, but whatever. It's about having fun, right? Please leave a review to tell us what you thought!
