The commando

Clone commando sergeant Collern was relaxing inside his squad's ship, a Nu-class shuttle. Collern was the leader of Trident Squad, a squad of four. Collern liked using his vibrosword in combat along his blaster pistol a dc-15s (commando pistol from republic commando) and his dc-15c. His squad found it strange that he used the standard issue blaster but Collern liked to keep it simple and light and dc-15c was that if anything. His commando amor had a black pattern similar to the 501st over the white armor but he had put tick marks on the white armor. This was for won duels with his sword and he had many tick marks. On his bracers he had sword brakers along his shock gauntlets (the shock ability from battlefront). He also had a rope launcher on the other arm.

The technical expert of the group was Swank the name said a lot about him as he had many female "friends" on Courusant. He had only two dc-15s pistols but his armor was more unique over the white armor he had painted with dark red paint a similar pattern to his squad leader, but he had written every name of every female "friend" he had. He also kept his hair long witch in a standard unit would have gotten him into trouble.

Sharpe the sniper of the squad preferred dc 15a blaster rifle as he had a similar mindset to his squad leader when it came to weapons but he was a fanatic Palpatine supporter. He also kept to regulations so his armor was pure white but he had several ponchos stored on the ship for different foliage or lack of to help with camouflage.

The final member of the squad was Metts the explosives expert of the squad with a motto of "there is no such thing as to much force". He was the only squad member to use the dc 17 carbine but that was with a great number of explosives and other toys. His armor had a cyan pattern with a lot of scorch marks and other dirt and grime. He was calm soldier and not much more.

The ship was in hyperspace on the way back to Corusant from a relatively standard infiltration mission to gain some intel. Sharpe was sitting on his bunk cleaning his rifle while Metts was reading some sort of hollobock, swank was meanwhile flying the ship.

Collern asked through his commlink "Swank what is our ETA?"

Swank responded "about two hours to Corusant, and some leave"

Collern asked "do you have an appointment planed with one of those so-called friends of yours".

Swank responded "no comment sir".

Collern smiled and said "whell then you take us safely back home, and I will get some sleep".

Swank simply said "roger that, goodnight, sir".

Collern was happy to get some sleep as him and his best friend swank were going to celebrate as the war was ending, general Kenobi had just gone to capture general Grevious. He just wanted to be well rested, for there night out.

Collern removed his helmet showing his face, he had browner hair than his brothers and he had short hair on the sides but just a few centimeters on top but that was slicked to his right.

He lay down on his bed and instantly fell asleep.

Swank called over the intercom "wakeup we have problem, we are being sucked in to some sort of an energy field".

Collern threw himself out of bed and shouted in his commlink "then jump back into hyperspace"

Swank said "I can't that thing sucked us out of hyper space in the first place"

Collern ordered "alright boys strap in this is going to be a bumpy ride we are going thru"

Swank said worriedly "the energy field is bringing us into hyperspace, we are going along for the ride".

The ship violently shook and knocked everyone out then jumped to hyper space.

Collern woke up on a planet with huge trees similar to Kashyyyk he was still strapped to his chai. He went to his locker and grabbed his gear and some rations. Metts and Sharpe were doing the same Collern then saw Swank come out of the cockpit.

Swank said with a serious tone "sir we are no longer in our own galaxy and we are stuck the ship is also royally busted".

Collern and the rest of the squad were shocked by what they heard.

Collern seeing his squads despair said "this, changes nothing we have our mission, to bring that intel to Corusant this is just another battle to win".

Sharpe said "then how are we getting of this rock, if this is just another battle".

Metts said "yeah I have to agree with Sharpe on this one, it's a long way home".

Collern looked to Swank and said "any settlement nearby that could help us".

Swank responded "yes sir, there is some sort of military base five clicks away they might help".

Collern said "whell boys then we have plan, hike to that base and request help, if they are unfriendly, we will deal with them then take a ship". The squad responded with a "yes sir" they then started to download the ships navigation data and placed charges to destroy it, so that nothing could be gained from the ship be it intel or weak spots. The squad left their beloved ship that had caried them thru the war and when they were clear they set of the charges.

When they got within sight of the base Collern ordered Sharpe to climb on of the trees to get a good overview of the base. Sharpe used a grappling hock to climb the tree after a few seconds he had a good perch, from where he could see the base entrance.

Collern ordered Swank and Metts to stay back Metts was also told to prepare smoke grenades if the negotiations went south. They were also to remain hidden while Collern went to speak to the owners of the base.

Collern stod up and walked towards the base (about 150 meters) he saw a symbol everywhere it was orange on a white background and the entire base had the same colors as the symbol. He stopped 30 meters Infront of the main door

The base was large and had huge walls around it and several landing pads on the main structure there was also huge aa guns on top of the wall.

The door opened and six white clad soldiers rushed out and surrounded him. Collern thought that the soldiers locked strange but they seemed to be human, that was confirmed when what seemed to be an officer walked out. He was a human with black hair and small beard.

"What is your business" the officer asked with a rough tone.

"My squad and I crashed on this planet and we simply require help to get home" Collern said calmly.

"So, you are a soldier who do you serve and what is your name" the officer asked.

"I am clone sergeant CC-1401, Collern I am the commanding officer of Trident squad, we serve the Galactic Republic" Collern said proudly.

"That is the worst lie I have ever heard, but some of the best acting, terminate him" the officer said casually.

The second he had finished the sentence a blue blaster bolt tor into his chest the officer stumbled back and fell. Those few seconds felt like an eternity for Collern, the strange soldiers were in shock and were trying to locate the sniper. But in that instance several smoke bombs exploded. Collern grabs his sword and blaster and starts to ruthlessly slaughter the soldiers. The first soldier got beheaded, Coller kicked the knee in of the next and finished him with blastershot to the head. Collern used his shock gauntlet to knock three soldiers down he killed them with his trusty blaster, the last soldier wisely surrendered.

Metts and Swank ran to the side of their brother and pointed their blasters at their new captive.

Collern told the soldier "If you want to live you will bring us to the nearest hangar, got it?".

The soldier said with a fearful tone "I got it"

Swank said with a sarcastic tone "sorry my squad leader gets grumpy when he doesn't get his after-mission nap".

Collern sighed and said "anyway, get this door open, and get Sharpe down here"

Collern brought up his arm and spoke into his com "Sharpe we are stealing a ship, get down here"

Sharpe responded "right away sir, what the hell, come on you bastard"

In the next moment the clones saw their brother fall down from the tree lacking a head.

Metts and Swank where shocked and froze were they stood.

But Collern stayed calm and told the soldier to "get this door open right now you bastard".

The four entered the base with the Metts in the back with swank and the prisoner in the middle, Collern was in the lead. They did not meet any resistance which Collern found verry strange.

Collern told his squad "This is a trap keep an eye out for hostiles".

They kept sneaking thru the base and they were getting close to the landing pad. Then when metts was in between two rooms the door closed and shut him in.

Collern went to the door and tried to pry it open but it had been locked. In that moment they could hear screaming from there brother as he was killed by what sounded like a sword. Collern felt great sadness as two of his brothers had died within twenty minutes at the end of a three year long conflict. But he needed to stay focused to keep his best friend alive.

Collern said "we need to keep moving, or we will join our brothers".

Swank with his voice breaking "roger that sir".

Collern asked the prisoner "How far until we get to the platform"

The frightened prisoner "yeah this next door is the last one, its unlocked you can get out".

Collern said coldly "thanks and good luck kid" he then stunned the soldier with his pistol.

Collern holstered his pistol and equipped his carbine. Then the remaining clones ran to the door and opened it, they saw no ship. But they had no choice and needed to get better sightlines, to deal with this stalker, they ran out on the openair landing pad, finding cover behind some crates.

When they had reached their new cower Collern told his friend "Keep your eyes peeled".

Swank responded "roger that sir"

They found and prepared their firring positions. Collern was not scared of death he was frightened of the loss of his brother.

Then the air raid sirens started blearing loudly. Collern found this very strange as they had been here for a while. But it did not matter as they were still caught like womp rat in its burrow. In the next moment Collern looked over his shoulder to see his brother, his best friend be impaled by a sword wielded by a dark clad man with strange tech over his eyes. Collern let out a scream of rage as a blue shuttle appeared in the sky, and making its way towards Collerns landing pad. The man that stabbed Swank had disappeared however twenty of the strange soldier's came out of the base and started firing towards Collern.

Collerns instincts kicked in and he returned fire with pinpoint accuracy, the two first soldiers got a blaster bolt each. Collern kept fighting for his life, and he just kept killing them they tried to push, they fell. As this happened the blue shuttle had made its way to the platform and three people jumped out of the ship. Two men one in black armor and one in blue the third was a blue female alien. Collern kept fighting for his life killing five more soldiers. Then the blacklead soldier ran to Collerns side and asked him "are you our guest from another galaxy" Collern responded "yeah that's me and my squad, but they are dead". The blacklead soldier said to Collern "if you do not want to join them, il give you help getting home". Collern considered the offer but he did not have a choice so he agreed to the offer he said "lead the way". The blacklead soldier ordered his team to get on the shuttle, Collern ran towards the ship when he got hit in the side of his armor and he passed out.

Collern felt himself laying on comfortable bed, he thought that he had just had a nightmare and he would open his eyes to see his brothers inside their ship. But no, he woke up inside a medbay that belonged to his rescuers. He sat up in his bed noticing that his armor was gone but he still wore his under suit. He locked around the room and saw an older woman.

Collern said "where am I, and who are you". The woman responded "I am doctor Chakwas and this is the Normandy SR2, how do you feel". "Doc I just lost my entire squad, my brothers and I could not stop the man who slaughtered them, so not so good" Collern said with anger and sadness. Chakwas answered "im sorry for your loss, however the commander wants to speak with you, do you feel well enough to answer some questions". "Yeah, I can do that"

A few minutes later the commander walked in with a smile with the blue alien at his side, Collern saw that this was a military man in the way he walked and carried himself.

The commander said "welcome, I am Commander Shepard and this is my ship the Normandy and to my right we have DR Liara Tisoni, what is your name"." My name is CC-1401 Collern" Collern said coldly as he was trained to do when someone wanted his designation. "That is a strange name and what is your last name" Liara said before Shepard could ask the same thing. "I am a clone the number is my birth number CC is for clone commando, Collern is a nickname my trainer gave me". Liara and Shepard were surprised at how cold he sounded but Shepard ignored it and asked "so you are a commando but what happened to you and your squad". "You saw one of my brothers' corpses, my squad was killed by an assassin with a sword, he split us up and killed us one by one" Collern said with anger. Shepard got an idea maybe this lone survivor could be recruited to his team? "This assassin most likely works for Cerberus, and they are no friends of my, if you want vengeance, you can join me and take those idiots down" Shepard said. Collern considered the offer, he had no way back and he could get revenge maybe even make up for his failure to protect his brothers. "I will fight for you commander but I get to kill the assassin" Collern said. "Great, I think that you will make a nice addition to the team" Shepard said happily, he shook Collerns hand. "I have to tell you that Cerberus is not our only enemy nor the main one that would be the reapers, they are trying to eradicate al forms of life, do you mind fighting them to" Shepard asked. "No if they are trying to kill al forms of life, they might kill the assassin and I can't let that happen" Collern said with a grin. Shepard could not help but to smile as he had found a true soldier.
