As the clones started recovering from the chrio they also started getting ready to fight the empire. Clone took the ships out of mothballs and cleaned the rifles, the clones did physical training and learned the imperial tactics but as all of this happened brian ventured into zootopia to scout everything out
Brian was wearing a grey sweatshirt, jeans, his jump boots and his black fox baseball hat. He walked with his head lowered watching the movement of the stormtroopers. He watched as they terrorized shop owners and arrested anyone they suspected of being against the empire. Brian walked through the crowd buying random things as he made his way into the ZPD precinct 1 building. Looking up he could see stormtroopers walking on walls as if they were all imprisoned in the city. As brian walked across the street to the ZPD everyone everyone was as orderly as possible, the trams even stopped for pedestrians. When brian entered the ZPD it was pretty quiet except for the occasional phone ring. When he walked over to the desk he was met with a familiar face.
"Welcome to the ZPD, I'm Sergeant Benjamin clawhauser how may i assist you today." ben asked obviously having performed it many times and brian saw ben die a little inside whenever he acted all cheery.
"Is Chief Wilde in by chance?"
"The Chief is in would you like me to see if he is available to meet you?"
"Please." brian said surprised ben had not recognized him but then again it had been 22 years. Ben phoned the chief and after a few seconds hung up. "The Chief is available… what's your name?"
"Brian…. Brian Smith."
"Well Mr. Smith please go upstairs it's on the right." ben said writing down brians name. Brian looked at ben puzzled then walked over to the stairs, up them and then into wildes office.
"Hey Judy what's all going on arou…" brian said stopping mid sentence when he saw a red fox sitting in the chair instead of a gray bunny.
"Sir Judith Wilde hasn't been the Chief here since the uprising 7 years ago…. Now what do you want?" nick said without looking up
"Nick it's me….. Brian…" brian said and nick stopped reading and looked up a shocked expression
"Brian? What the fuck are you doing here?" nick asked angered
"Trying to figure out what the fuck is going on now you gonna tell me?" brian asked. Nick sat down and brian sat down as well
"Brian as you can see the empire has not been kind to us at all. When the empire took over it was ok but then after 12 years the empire became very oppressing we had our rights stripped from us and anyone who didn't comply was killed. Judy and myself along with everyone who was left from the wars tried to be a shining example for zootopia…. That was until a riot broke out in the middle of the city. The Empire raised taxes and it caused many families to go bankrupt, the riot got violent and stormtroopers fired into the crowd and killed several…. Judy arrived just as the troopers opened fire but what she didn't see what that the crowd was throwing rocks and it had actually killed 3 troopers already. After the troopers stopped judy was filled with hatred and instead of trying to make the world a better place she insisted on making a rebellion to fight the empire. Her, Kirito, Asuna, sally, everyone left started talking about the rebellion as i watched the imperial presence get stronger. For weeks she never showed up to work and for weeks I was in charge. One day I came to work and found judy's badge on the desk, she quit her job and put her entire time to fighting the empire and pushed everyone away, even me." nick said looking at the gold wedding band on his finger. " 2 months after she resigned I got word that there were Armed civilians amassing outside of the city digging trenches and such. I drove there as fast as i could but the empire arrived before me. After repelling the first attack they marched through the streets asking all those who would fight to fight and for 3 days they held off the empire but…. On the 4th day they sent their entire army and killed all who resisted. Judy never left. I pleaded for her to leave but she didn't. I was running through the back wall trying to get her to come with me back home but she stopped as she heard blaster fire. She ran back as i pleaded and the last thing she said to me was 'i love you nick and may the force be with you.' a week after the troopers came to me with her in a casket, i buried her beside rachelle and have been ZPD chief since."
"Nick i'm sorry i… i didn't know."
"Brian we are the last remaining… and i don't know how much longer the civil rest will last we have had the highest crime rate since even before predator and prey were friends. Prey have mostly sided with the empire and predators are trying to survive."
"What about hiccup and astrid?"
"I haven't heard from them since they left the planet but sonic was executed last week for spying on the empire."
Brian got up and looked out the window
"Brian the galaxy no longer has any hope… it's madness."
"Then we need to give that hope back."
"What are you talking about?"
"My troops are ready to fight but we won't be able to hold out against the entire army….. I have a plan but your going to need to meet me here at this grid at 1900 hrs tonight."
"Got it brian I'm at your service." nick said. Brian heard commotion from down stairs, he pulled nicks blinds to see a imperial officer and imperial security troopers talking to clawhauser.
"We may have a problem. Is there another way out of this office?"
"Always." nick said opening up a small hatch brian climbed in then stopped
"Remember nick be safe."
"I will be. May the force be with you"
"And with you" brian said shutting the hatch and falling to a garage where dust covered bikes lay. He found his 1000cc and quickly started it and took off. The door automatically opening and brian jumped out of the door and skidded onto the street stopping as the door's close and sped away past the security officers. When the security officers saw brian screaming past they quickly got into there transport and sped after brian. Brian watched as the imperials chased him and he made his way towards the base. As they entered the back roads brian gun it out running them and getting off to go inside the base quickly.
Brian pulled his bike into the base as clones went about doing whatever needed to be done to prepare them for the fight against the Empire. Brian pulled the kickstand out and put the bike by the wall walking up the stairs to the war room were thorner and echo were standing by a hologram table.
"So general what do you have to report?" thorner asked
"The imperials are strangling all hope out of the civilians, the people are afraid to do anything and the empire is ruling unopposed."
"Well that just great sir. We are supposed to find a way to start a rebellion but with the empire having a stranglehold we can't especially since everyone who fought with us is dead."
"Hiccup isn't… hiccup isn't dead." brian said in sudden realization, brian then started typing in the holo board and it zoomed out of the galaxy and then to a planet in the galaxy. " Commander thorner assemble the men I have a plan."
"Sir yes sir." thorner said walking away
10 minutes later in the assembly room
The clones all sat in there seats hoping they were going to be given permission to fight the empire. They conversed until brian walked onto stage and they all stood at attention
"At ease Gentlemen, as you all know the empire has ruled for 22 years and in that time they have destroyed all hope that the people have. We are going to win that hope back gentlemen and we will defeat the empire. The 123rd will leave earth, join hiccup and the remaining soldiers from the dreamworks war and bring the fight to the empire" brian said as the clones shouted there approval but brian's face became somber. "Gentlemen I hate doing this, after all the fighting we have been through all the death we have seen i don't like asking you all to fight but this time is worse. The empire controls the skies here on the planet and in order to have most of the 123rd get off planet and get to hiccup we will need a small portion to stay behind with me and hold the empire, basically distract them while the others are able to get away to hiccup and the others. I wont lie its very likely that those who say will die in the process along with myself so anyone who will stay please stand." brian said
For a couple seconds no one stood then echo did, then fives, then another clone and another, clone after clone stood up until they all stood up and brian smiled
"Sir i Volunteer my squad to stay Behind." echo says
"Mine too sir." fives says
"The 501st is with you until the end general" captain rex said. Brian stood there and was proud of his soldiers, the men he had fought and bled beside for years were staying beside the cause they all believed in. brian smiled as these soldiers stood strong.
"Well Arc trooper fives, echo, General Rex, we will all defend earth while everyone else goes and joins up with hiccup and the others." brian said with a cheer from the clones. Just as they started to cheer a door opened and in walked nick walked in. He was wearing his old pinks and greens uniform with every award he had been awarded on his chest, his crusher cap in hand and jump boots nice and shiny. The uniform looked amazing but showed worn on the elbows and such from being used so much, nick walked over to brian and all the clones saluted nick who saluted back.
"Troopers good to see you all." nick said
"General Nick is going to help us make a map of the entire city and then outlying towns, we will win gentlemen and we will kill the empire." brian said
