"Training continues! As the war and struggle wages on along endures to find a way to end, padawan Ahsoka Tano and the Wild Force have been training for weeks upon Kamino under the training of the Bad Batch. A mutant like group of clones that are only brought in when a mission requires a 'unique' brand of soldier work. With how the weeks of brutal training have come underway, the Wild Force have now learn the ways of being a soldier."


Outer Rim-Kamino

Traveling across the system, Captain Rex as well Cody were given orders to give a check up on the progress of the training. While the Jedi would look into this matter, they had their hands full with tracking down Evil and Dooku during the chaos. Both senior clone officers looked upon their home world amazed of how it's been a while coming back here.

"I still can't believe that the animals wanted to learn our means of combat. Thought they be getting it from the Jedi since they've been living in the temple."

Cody suggesting that whenever they took a moment of air from the droid battles. Most of the clones wondered about where the animals reside, which was in the temple and would learn from the Jedi. However in this moment of disaster during Mandalore, they decide to come here to their home world and learn from their tactics of how to fight.

"Well none of them use that force stuff, and always fight by our side. So I believe that fighting like us and getting training will get them better in ending this conflict."

Rex responding since when the broadcast from Mandalore happened, was where both Rex and Cody were on another planet taking down droids. In which it was a disturbing sight seeing Evil strangle Palpatine and showing his true colors. It made people think about it, more or less question about their position in the war. Especially that if Palpatine was behind making the clone army in the first place.

"But why? Palpatine was governing whole galaxy in the Republic, as well doing the same with the Separatists possibly using Dooku. Why would he turn two armies against each other?"

Questing more about the purpose of creating the clone army as Cody felt rather frighten that him along the hundreds and thousands of his brothers dying on the battlefield. Felt like a twisted joke for the old man, Rex. Hearing the tone within his words question that as well, along how there seemed to be no answer behind it.

"Confusion. To try and turn against each other and then have him swoop in and take control when the fighting stopped. Meaning that now, people might start waking up."

Giving a answer to Cody about how with this revelation of who the chancellor really is, it could lead to peaceful negotiations across the galaxy as well end the war. Though as the two clones continue their talk, they soon got to the landing pad. Heading out of their ship, they were soon greeted by a Kaminoan scientist as she saw them walking to her.

"Greetings Captain Rex, Commander Cody. It has been a while since you've come back to the planet."

Greeting the two clones as they bowed their heads to her in respect seeing that the scientists has always shown consideration for each clone that has come back from the war. Walking with the scientists, they noticed down the hallways seeing there fellow brothers continue their training.

"How's the training with the Wild Force and Bad Batch is going?"

Rex questioning the scientist seeing that while he wouldn't mind training the animals as well Ahsoka since they've worked together on the battlefield. However they requested to get training in the most unpredictable manner, which lead to working with the defective clones.

"Quite well actually. They seem to bond in a strange manner such as discussing stories about their missions and lively hoods, as well practice daily against the combat droids."

Explaining to them as well showing the two clones a holopad of their progress. Each of them have had individual training with the clones such as learning to operate clone weaponry, mobility tactics when it came to avoiding getting shot. As well working together on the field when retrieving items without losing any members during the trials.

"Interesting. And have they used their 'abilities' to help progress threw the trials?"

Cody asking seeing how that when the Wild Force was with the clones and aiding them on the battlefield, they would immediately turn the tide and make it easy. However this was training they requested, meaning that they had to take it serious without using their abilities and rely on actual skills and put the work into training.

"When they first started, Hunter informed each of the Wild Force that while themselves may have unique aspects. They relied on teamwork, meaning they could not use their powers."

Informing them that under the training of Hunter, none of the Wild Force members used their powers whenever they trained with the Bad Batch. As well showed the recordings how it was a bit rough when they were training with the Bad Batch. Especially how when Speed tripped and fell right into one of the trenches when he wasn't using his enhanced running.

"Damn it!"

The cheetah called out on the recording of how it was hard for him to not use his speed in avoiding bolts so easy. Everyone else dealt with troubles of their own acting like normal soldiers, but it made them understand the hardships of being a clone soldier.

"You either die stumbling or die moving. Either way, don't do either. You get me?!"

"Yes sir!"

Hearing the young adults response to Hunter as he was acting like a leader to the Wild Force as well having his men guide each member. Seeing this type of hard work the clones were doing for the animals made Rex smile since it's been a while seeing good old fashion training.

"The group is right now in the mess hall talking about strategy in facing aerial threats and avoiding explosive impacts when they hit the ground."

Explaining that while they were eating, they were still listening on lessons of trials about how to handle enemies attacking them and crashing onto the field. The three continue to walk until they arrived at the mess hall, where they saw both teams looking at the wall where Tech was. Who was talking about different kinds of aerial enemies and the different outcomes of their crashes.

"Now most ships have a suppressed about of fuel that would lead to a stable crash, however when clones shoot a spot upon the ships. Will lead to a different crash when they hit the ground."

The intellectual member of the Bad Batch explaining to the Wild Force of how whenever a average clone shoots down a ship. Will have a different impact, along how they could avoid getting blown away and not get killed.

"Best thing is to use a droid's body as a shield. Or a battering ram."

Wrecker making a suggestion as the group chuckled at the comment seeing how he would use brute force to avoids getting blown away. Though as they continued to mutter around and eat, Ahsoka noticed behind her that of Rex and Cody standing by the scientist.

"Sparky?"

Asking softly by him seeing how she didn't want them to notice the two informed him about the clones being here. The masked dog nodded as well whistled to his crew about the arrival of Rex and Cody being here.

"Seniors on deck!"

Sparky quickly announcing as he and the others made sure they looked presentable as well at attention. Standing upwards as well acting like clone soldiers, the clones could see that the Bad Batch had did a number on them.

"At ease."

Cody telling them as most of them relaxed as well got comfortable due to how they had been working on being presentable to other clone commanders. Rex, smiled at Ahsoka as he didn't expect to see her acting like a solider.

"Don't let the look fool you, they only get like this when they see their friends."

Crosshairs stating behind them as the young adults merely groan towards the sniper of the Bad Batch seeing how he called out on their stature. Rex, merely nodded as well was glad to see them trying to be like soldier.

"Much like you when you want to show off to the Kaminoan's whenever you shoot some droids by yourself."

Ash responding back as the two glared at one another seeing how there was a bit of tension between the two. Both Sparky and Hunter stopped them seeing how they were in front of visitors seeing that they wanted to know the progress of the training.

"We wanted to step by and tell you that the message from Evil has effected not just Republic senators but also Separatist forces. Most of the droids are being called back to protect their owners planets."

Rex briefing them on the current events that have been happening since while the Wild Force have been here on Kamino. They haven't been on the news about what has been going on so hearing about droids being pulled back was a surprise.

"Standards of war I believe, with how the tides change and no protection. They'd have to retreat in order to protect whatever profits they have left. And of Dooku?"

Quackers questioning about with how the leaders of the droid army now having no type of protection from Palpatine. It would mean they would either give up and find that of peace, or retreat with whatever credits they had left in the war. However for Dooku, the Jedi haven't found him or saw him visiting the droid factories. He was still hiding, in which there had to be more to this mystery.

"No but the last droid factory that we visit had one of the master's hitmen, Durge. He gave a warning to commander Skywalker. 'Dooku's death is near, and even if I die. You'll see the world burn again'."

Cody informing them that during the last droid factory assault, they encountered the rather unkillable Durge who possibly came as a trap for them. They all begun to talk trying to figure out what might be going on, Ahsoka felt something wrong. The voices around her slowly went silent like if a terrible force had silence a powerful object that was standing in it's way.

"Ahsoka?"

Sparky asking her if she seemed alright as he noticed the expression on her face due to looking alarm about a possible problem. The Padawan shook her head that there was something wrong, and it was already happening. During the conversation, Cody felt rather woozy as he was losing focus.

"Hey are you alright? You don't look exactly all well there commander."

Zena asking as noticed how the yellow armored clone was barely focusing on her words, however he nodded his head trying to assure them that he was alright. However before he could assure them he was fine, but soon collapsed onto the ground completely passed out.

"Get him up."

Hunter telling his team as they helped the clone commander up and try to place him on a chair to try and wake him up. However as they tried to get him to wake up, Kizaemon was hearing that of more people collapsing on the floor all around the complex.

"It's not just here."

The hamster stating as he walked out of the mess hall to get a better look at the situation. As all around the hallways was clone troopers dropping on the ground like dominos and passing out. Back in the mess hall was Rex who was starting to feel the effects as well, however Echo was able to catch him before he could pass out like Cody.

"Oh no you don't. Your not passing out on us."

Stating to his old friend about how he didn't want to see Rex passing out with this strange condition happening. Meaning that if it was happening here on Kamino, then was it happening across the galaxy?


Later on in the Medical Bay

It was a mad house within the clone base as several clone troopers were being treated by the scientists and doctors within the facility. All the men had passed out in different areas such as the training grounds, bunks and even ready to take off. Both teams were helping out the Kaminoan's into finding out the matter of this situation, meanwhile on the side was Sparky and Ahsoka talking with the Jedi council on Coruscant as the clones were beginning to pass out and became unable to awake from their transparent slumber.

"All across the planet the clones have begun passing out. There were no signs of sickness or even that of a disease. It happened simultaneously."

Plo Koon informing them of how this wasn't happening just on Kamino but there on the Republic planet. It resulted in numerous reports of accidents as well people to not knowing what was happening.

"There has to be a link within the facility. Have you noticed anything going on during your training session?"

Mace asking them that while they had been at the facility there had to be something going on. Though apparently nothing, it had been the standard arranging of having troops sent out to bases and regrouping with republic cruisers.

"Nothing. It's been rather quiet since we've been here. More or less that none of the clones were acting weird or anything."

Ahsoka informing the council that there was no sign of any type of sickness happening during the past week. This sounded peculiar that it happened out of nowhere more or less that it effected all the clones. Sparky taking a second to think about the moment looked at the Bad Batch group, as they weren't effected by this strange occurrence.

"Do clones get annual check ups in the head?"

Getting curious about how whenever there was any kind of injuries done to their head it would get examine. Leaving the dog to rush over to Cody's side where Quackers was checking on as the duck was trying to figure out what was wrong. Taking one of the devices from the side, tried to activate it showing a x ray mode as he used it over the commander's head.

"Sparky I don't think that whatever your doing will work. We have enough technology to locate what might be.."

Before his teammate could advise another way into looking what was the problem, Sparky managed to find it. Within the central nerve of his brain appeared to be a organic chip. In which was connect to most of his body as well forcing him to go into this unconscious state.

"This is the thing, that's what causing the clones to pass out. Where's Lama Su? He's in charge of the overlook of clones right?"

Asking any of the Kaminoan's if the one in charge was still around in which none of them could respond due to how many of them were treating the clones. He was about to inform some people about finding Lama before they heard some grunting outside of the room, checking out the sight was both Crosshairs and Ash who apparently had Lama Su in bonds and brought to them like if he was a prisoner.

"He was trying to make a run for it. Apparently when we were checking out the rest of the clones, Su here was looking rather peculiar and head to his personal ship."

Crosshairs stating as both he and Ash brought him over to the center of the medical room in which everyone took a look at the leader of the facility. In which they had different expression about why he decided to leave during the moment.

"I guess there's a explanation needing, otherwise Wrecker here as well Zena make you due to how they have a thing for betraying on people they care for. Along Echo who has a problem with modifications."

Hunter stating to the scientist as the three individuals walked over towards him in a threatening manner due to how he had to be involve in this situation. The animals and clones gave him a cold glare waiting for a explanation, which left Lama Su to stand up as well admit to his cowardly retreat.

"It was because a code has been activated."

Staying to them in one sentence making them rather concern of how this sounded serious. More or less that whatever he was talking about had to deal with the clones passing out.

"Long before the clones were used in war, the benefactor that aided us in the cloning of the men. Had me placed a organic chip that had a set of codes if anything would happen during the war. The behavioral one was set to adjust the clones emotions, to be used for anything such as adrenaline boost to that of rest."

Informing them that during the creation of clones, he had placed a organic chip within them so they act different then the soldiers that they are. Well except for the Bad Batch as it seemed due to their 'deviant' creations it seemed unable for them to work.

"And let me guess, Palpatine? The same mad man who started the war?"

Echo stated as Lama nodded, in which there was a reason behind this seeing how he believed that the Chancellor would protect them and aid their place by his side. However with the death of Sidious upon Mandalore, it seemed that someone would have activated the code. Seeing how they didn't have time for this, Hunter had his men take Lama Su somewhere for holding while they handle this matter.

"Is it possible for a way to wake them up? Without possibly killing them?"

Ahsoka asking them seeing how there had to be a way of getting the clones to reawaken. However both Quackers and Tech continued to look into if there was a way to get them awaken without damaging any vital brain lobes within them.

"This is a very complex procedure. And that it has to be carefully removed, others there might be brain damage."

Tech giving a explanation that while it was possible to remove the chip, the real problem was making sure that it didn't damage the brain which could cause either a complete shut down or possibly worse. It seemed like this was dangerous matter, in which that this was possibly happening across the galaxy. As this problem was going on, Ash was getting a call from his communicator in which he answered.

"What's up?"

The hellfire rabbit asking who was calling him, however on the other side it seemed like engines going on and off. In which something was going on as he didn't say anything but ran out of the medical bay in a rush.

"Where's he going? Clones across the galaxy are dropping like fly's and he's heading out?"

Speed questioning that out of all the times for him to be leaving, it be now under these circumstances. It had to be now to be on his own, however Ahsoka was sensing wrong with him as both she and Sparky followed him seeing how there had to be a problem if Ash was leaving in a hurry. The two followed him trying to figure out what was happening, in which he ran all the way outside to the landing pad where there were outside.

"Buddy? Mind telling us what's going on? Because this seems serious but we can't get scared we've handled much more dangerous assignments."

Sparky telling Ash seeing how this was extreme, but Ash wasn't listening as he was looking upwards at the sky. Leaving the couple to do the same they upwards at the sky curious about what was happening. Ahsoka, felt a strong presence from what was coming from the sky as well noticed a object coming at them.

"I think this is a urgent matter honey."

Ahsoka responding to the dog as suddenly they noticed that it was ship, SS 54 assault ship coming down with it's engine half on fire. Coming at them fast and hard, Ahsoka tried to use the force and steady the ship as they saw how it was trying to steady itself.

"Throw me!"

Shouting to Ash as the hellfire rabbit hurled his red scarf towards him and hurls the robot dog upwards to the ship. Ahsoka steading from crashing, Sparky got right forward to the face of the ship and place his feet forward. Moving away from impact, the dog was able to land on the landing pad and stop the ship from going off the pad. Using his strength to stop the ship, he was able to keep the ship at bay and unable to head into the water.

"Is everyone alright?"

Asking concern as whatever had attacked the ship had to be serious, in which he rushed to the door where he found a way to open it. Though it was nothing but smoke seeing how it was Sugi and her crew who were coughing from the crash as well came from a fire fight.

"No! We are not! Ok!"

Latts Razzi announcing as she along Sugi came out, plus Embo who had Anooba in his arms as it seemed serious. Ash and Ahsoka came into notice Sugi injured along having half of Highsinger with her. Coming out of the entrance was several Kaminoan's with medical beds going to help the injured get looked at, leaving the trio confused about this sudden arrival.

Later on

Getting treated after by the doctors, the three bounty hunters had to have their equipment taken away for safety. Sparky, Ahsoka along with Ash and a hologram of Obi Wan and Anakin we're interviewing the group about what happened.

"We were heading back to a small outpost after a bounty. No problems or anything, but then we got a message from some woman, Bo Katan. Then suddenly out of nowhere we got jumped, some ships came out of no where and attacked us."

Sugi explaining her story about the attack on them, more less that they had gotten a message from Bo Katan. The same woman on Mandalore who was with Deathwatch when they tried to take the planet.

"Put it threw."

Skywalker requesting for the bounty hunter to present the message in which she gestured one of the current people in the room to play the message. However it was on Highsinger's body, leaving Sparky to come forward and play it. They heard nothing as they soon heard that of blasting sounds coming off the droid's systems.

"Requesting assistance, overrun by Maul's Deathwatch. We had them on the run before with the clone troopers but they passed out. Now suddenly their regrouping and getting help from the Masters!"

The recording announced before suddenly getting cut off. Just right after the civil war broke out on Mandalore, the republic was able to send a cruiser over to the planet where it could try and help out the people. Though now this strange condition was effecting a planet that had already been threw troubles already.

"We can't send anyone right now, not without getting our troops to wake up."

Obi Wan stating due to how with the troops passing out on Coruscant. No one could be sent to Mandalore. While Sparky, merely lowered his head seeing how he couldn't believe what he was about to suggest. Seeing how now after they had done several weeks of training with the Bad Batch, they had to now put it in a proper situation.

"Then we have to, we have to go back to Mandalore."

Suggesting them that if there wasn't going be any help coming due to this effect happening to the clones. The Wild Force would have to travel to Mandalore and see what exactly was going on, as well if Evil was behind making this happen.


"Happy May 4th everyone! As well sorry for the late entry but there other stories needing updates and I like to share them with everyone. Hope everyone is enjoying the Star Wars Holiday and celebrating it in their own ways. Thank you for reading, more will come soon. May the 4th be with you all."
