Rogue Knights-Chapter 2

By Princess Raye Fire

*~* At Rogues Base*~*

Wedge watched as the squadron called the 'Rogue Knights' land. They maneuvers were measured and their timing was excellent. They landed in the Three-Diamond position. But each Diamond faced outward in a different direction with a clearing hidden from view in the middle.

He gave his own squadron orders to land.

After his fighter had cycled down, he popped the canopy of his X-WING he saw the Knights. What he expected to be 90 year-old "crazies" were actually no older than 26 years-old.

They were wearing the traditional deep blue flight suits of the Old Republic. With the Starfighter Academy patch on the left side, and a patch he had never seen in any thing but pictures on their right sides. The patches were black with gold border, in the middle were swords, Light sabers- really, crossed. It was the patch given to any Jedi that joined the Old Republic's Armed Forces.

They all had different belt but they all wore flight gear which they shed and left in their cockpits. Before they climbed down, he noticed they put cylinders on their belts. Light sabers.

"I take it your Commander Antilles." It was more of a statement that a question.

"Yes" He turned around to look at the speaker. He saw a human woman about 5'5" with black hair that reached mid thigh and hazel eyes. "And you are?" She had a black leather belt with large silver connections in front and back. The kind of belt its easy to carry weapons on, just add a holster strap and your done.

He saw she carried a blaster on her right hip, set for cross draw and her saber on her left.

"Oh. Forgive me. I am Commander Nightwalker. You can call me Cassie. Most do."

The rest of the Squadrons started to gather. "Let's take this to a briefing room."

They all migrated to the pilot amp theater. A large white room with blue chairs and silver tables.

"First, why do you say you're from the Old Republic? And why do you call your selves 'Rogue Knights'?"

"First we are from the Galactic Republic -if that is what you mean by 'Old Republic'. Second we are Jedi Knights, but we're kind of… outlandish, you might call us rebellious. We don't always follow the rules, but were great pilots so they grouped us together and named us Rogues. So we are the Knighted Rogues or Rogue Knights which we prefer."

Then one of the other 'Knights' spoke up. "Why don't we introduce our selves?"

"Fine idea, Shahara, who will start?"

"OK. Of course you have met Cassie or Commander Nightwalker. I am En-Jay Skee" A green insectoid woman said.

"I'm Byrn Darkstar." He is a man with red/cinnamon colored hair, 5'8", with bright blue eyes. "This is my twin-in-arms Alern Shen." He was the same except an inch or so shorter with black hair.

"Lieutenant Youry Kel'ech." He nodded. He was a Bothan with white, gray, silver, and black camouflage fur.

"Tog Nethel." A guy about 19 with blonde hair and green eyes.

"Prili Jee'an" She's a cheerful young human woman with close cropped blue hair and eyes.

"I'm Shahara Nez." She was a shoulder length red head, with forest green eyes.

"Lieutenant Calin Cha." She was a Twi'lek with the normal pink eyes and 2 brain tails or lekku.

"Salin Castil." A short man with light blonde almost white hair with cobalt blue eyes.

"Niki Ali" Your average Sullust. (A/N: think the guy that flew with Lando in the Millennium Falcon in the last movie!)

"I am Cylar Mynth. It is an honor, surely." She was a Lion-woman with dark brown fur everywhere except her face, which were yellow and bright blue eyes.

"OK." Wedge began. "I'm Commander Wedge Antilles. You can call me Wedge. This is Aril Nub, Asyr Sei'lar, Iella Wessiri, Tycho Celchu, Nawara Ven, Gavin Darklighter, Riv Shiel, Corran Horn, Ooryl Qrygg, Inyri Forge, and Rhysati Ynr." (A/N: If you want to know what they look like…Read the books!)

"How did you guys get in this mess?" Rhysati asked inquisitively.

"So what do you mean 'mess', what's going on?"

"The 'mess' is that…well…uh…we're trying to take down the Bacta Cartel."

"Why do you want to do that?" Cassandra asked, her expression guarded.

"An Imperial has taken control. Raised Prices & made many species Sick so that they will die and rip the Republic apart. Since the Republic can not get involved because into would be interfering with the planets government, we resigned so we can take this monster down."

"What's an 'Imperial'?

"A Dark Emperor had taken over. Rebels fought it. They won and we took back control. Their in the midst of reestablishing a republic. The New Republic. You see the Empire…" Tycho went on to tell the new comers about everything from the Jedi Purge to the Death Stars.

"That's good. How long…" "How long were we in hyperspace?" "How did all this happen without us?"

"First when did you leave?" asked Tycho.

"I don't know. When we left it was 30 years After Organa." Answered Alern the Alderaanian.

"Let's see this would be 100 years After the rise of Organa. That's be 70 years." This answer received gasps of surprise and one "oh".

"If you will allow…." Cassie sighed. An odd, tired sound for the Jedi warrior. She looked at her lieutenants and shook her head. "do you want our help?" she sounded like she was doubting herself.

She got a few puzzled looks. From both sides. "Well…seeing as we have nothing better to do…presently…"

"That would be great!" Rhysati exploded into movement. "We'll give you full histories of what's happened while you were gone and find you suitable accommodations."

"But Cassie what about other Jedi?" Blurted out Shahara.

"What about them? If we are the last, or the first to appear in centuries, there will be no harm in waiting to reintroduce ourselves."

"After we do that we could train some?" Youry finished/asked.

"Yes. But first I suggest getting the rest of us up to Knight Status." Cassie looked at her two lieutenants. "We'll work out training assignments… after we're settled… In my chambers?"

The Bothan and Twi'lek nodded.

"But we can't do that without permission from the Jedi Council…" started Byrn

"Haven't you been listening? There was a Jedi PURGE meaning no more Jedi. We're probably the last." retorted Cylar.

"No you're not" Corran interrupted as he passed the caf. "Master Skywalker is working to reestablish the Jedi. He's finding all he can on training methods and is establishing an Academy."

"Who?"

"Would you be able to arrange a meeting? So we can see if this 'Master' is worthy of your confidence?" Asked Youry.

"Probably. Hey Emetry. Can you arrange a meeting with Masrter Skywalker?" Wedge got up from his seat. "I warn you it will take time to arrange a meeting. You may have to wait till the Bacta War is over and we rejoin the Republic to meet him."

"Fine…and thank you."
