Rex watched silently as Fives threw wild punches and jabs at the punching bag in the training room. Rex watched as the ARC's shoulders tensed up when he threw a right jab and a small shift in his feet when he threw a left hook. Hiding injuries was normally something Fives did due to how stubborn he could be, but as Rex studied the ARC he came to the conclusion that Fives wasn't hiding those injuries because he was hiding something else.

He had promised Cody that he would keep and eye on the ARC after the incident they had not even two weeks ago after Echo had died. Said Commander was back in their shared quarters doing paper work. Fives mumbling that he'd been shot, the haunted look in his eyes every time Rex tried to get him to say more, and the clear pain that Fives hid every time his chest slammed into by something he was glad that Cody was here to help him. This was different that any other injury Fives had hidden before. He loved his vod'ika, but he hated seeing him like this.

Rex sighed quietly shaking his head before he moved out of the doorway making sure to make enough noise so that he wouldn't startle Fives. The ARC paused briefly in his training, but didn't stop to look over at Rex when the captain leaned up against the wall besides the punching bag. Fives glanced at Rex out of the corner of his eyes, but said nothing when Rex shifted lightly.

"Are you gonna get those checked out by Kix or do I need to drag you down to medbay myself," Rex finally spoke up when Fives tensed up again.

Fives threw a left hook and finally stopped what he was doing to look at Rex briefly his left hand ghosting up to his right shoulder. The ARC glanced up at Rex again still silent.

"Fives," Rex spoke meeting the ARC's gaze and the ARC understood giving a light groan.

"Do I have too? Kix will lecture me again and I really don't need that right now," Fives groaned pleading with Rex that made the captain smile lightly.

That was something that hadn't changed with Fives. His light complaining and grumbling when it came to medical.

"Then I'll do it, but you need to get that looked at Fiv'ika," Rex crossed his arms over his chest a light smirk ghosting his lips.

Fives faced Rex and glared at him lightly before groaning allowing his head to fall forward on to Rex's shoulder groaning in defeat. Normally Fives would have argued more than that, but the ARC was clearly too tired to care. Rex moved a hand to grip the back of Fives' neck grounding his younger brother. A pleased groan escaped Fives as he leaned into the touch his tense shoulders relaxing lightly.

"That's what I thought," Rex smiled lightly noticing Fives relaxing lightly.

"Cheater," Fives got out one his bandaged hands going up to Rex's arm.

"C'mon Fiv'ika lets get you patched up. We don't need Cody getting worried," Rex smiled fondly as he pulled Fives away from him to drag him to his quarters.

Fives merely nodded letting Rex drag him to Cody and Rex's room. When they entered the room Cody was doung reports. The commander glanced up seeing the two setting his paper work aside.

"What did he do this time," Cody asked as Rex sat Fives down on the bunk and moved to grab their small med kit.

"I didn't do anything," Fives tried to argue back, but went unheard as Rex sat down next to the ARC and moved to open up Fives' training shirt to get a good look at his shoulder and side.

"Hiding injuries from Kix again," was Rex's only reply as Fives gave out a undignified squawk at the answer.

"Why am I not surprised. How bad are they," Cody asked getting up to grab himself something to drink ignoring the noise that came from Fives.

"Not bad just enough for me to notice," Rex replied not looking up from Fives' shoulder.

"I'm right here you know that right," Fives spoke up not amused about the fact that he was being ignored.

"We know," came the unison reply from both captain and commander.

Fives huffed in annoyance before hissing in slight pain when Rex pressed on his tense shoulder lightly trying to get an angle on where the bundled up muscle was. Rex hummed in response and started working on that area. Cody came over and sat down with his cup of water to continue doing his reports as Rex helped with Fives' wounds.

"Fives what is this?"

The ARC tensed up badly knowing exactly what Rex was talking about when Rex laid a hand over his back where the blaster bolt that had killed him had gone through him. The scar from the shot had also transferred over with him when he woke up in the past in his own body. Cody looked up from his work seeing where Rex had his hand.

"What the hell?"

"Fives answer me."

"When did he get that? Kix should have said something about that. That's a killing shot!"

"Fiv'ika please."

Fives was silent before he let his head fall down lightly a sigh escaping him. Rex pulled his hand away as Cody sat down next to the two. Captain and Commander were waiting for Fives' explanation when Rex's eyes widened in realization.

"Fives you don't have to—"

"Like I said before I shouldn't be here. I was shot Rex I should be in Manda's halls with the others, but no I'm here," Fives answer a hand running up to his chest on the front where the scar was the worst.

Cody and Rex were quiet as they digested the information. Sure they knew something was off about Fives because of what was said that night two weeks ago, but this? Rex opened his mouth to say something, but shut his jaw when he couldn't form the words.

"You said… that night you said you had information that could end the war, but that they shot you. Who was they Fives," Cody spoke up quietly grabbing Fives' shoulders moving to kneel in front of the ARC.

"Cody," Rex hissed at that knowing that this was not the time.

Cody didn't answer Rex as he stared at Fives waiting for an answer. Fives stared at Cody his eyes clouded lightly his jaw clenched tightly. The ARC snapped himself from where ever he disappeared to normally and met Cody's gaze before turning his head away.

"I…I can't right now. Maybe later Cody, but not right now. It still hurts too much," Fives whispered finally and Cody sighed but nodded understanding.

"Alright vod'ika. Alright. How about we talk about that information you had first then. You can't save the whole war on your own," Cody dipped his head in respect before giving Fives' shoulders a reassuring squeeze.

"If there is a way we can help we want to," Rex nodded in agreement still not happy at Cody for asking that question about Fives' killer again so soon.

Fives relaxed into the two a relief filled sigh escaping him.

"I know."
