"Well, I never was one for big and flashy introductions but I guess I can give it a shot!"
Sakura: "Well now, is that a fact?"
"And just what is THAT supposed to mean Sakura?"
Sakura: "Nothing, it just sounds kind of cheesy; that's all."
Sasuke: "Just as clueless as ever..."
Naruto: "Oh great, Sasuke's here! Now he's going to show me up!"
"Oh boy, let's just start ok?"
Episode II: The hunt for the X-wings begin! Shikamaru has a new jutsu?
It was all quiet as Raymus and the Rebels approached Wayland. "Captain!" one of the pilots said. "Yes, what is it?" Raymus asked. "We're coming upon the planet Wayland just as you planned." Raymus was indeed happy to hear this. "Very well, but we can't go just yet." "What? Why not?" one of the Rebel commanders asked out of pure curiosity. "I don't know if you've noticed, but we don't exactly have a good land force to fight the remaining Imperial troops on the surface." was the reply from Raymus. "Well then, what do you suggest?" Raymus thought for a moment and merely said, "Well, we will just have to gather up what troops we have from nearby planets we control." "And then what?" "Then, we go down to the surface and by using the hacking abilities of R2; we disrupt the communications link near Fresia so that we can get by the Imperial blockade." And then after that, they gathered up what troops they could and left for the surface of Wayland.
Meanwhile, back in the Leaf Village...
"Now then, the first match; Sakura Haruno versus Shikamaru Nara, BEGIN!" Genma said signaling the official start of the Chunin Exams. "Shikamaru, don't underestimate be or you'll get burned!" "Oh man, what a drag!" Shikamaru complained. "No way around it, guess I'll have to fight!" "Hmm, I better be careful; Shikamaru can snag his opponents with that Shadow Possession jutsu and I don't have many long-range techniques I can use. But maybe..." Sakura was thinking as she readied herself for Shikamaru's jutsu. "Shikamaru, don't think I will fall to your jutsu so easily!" Sakura cautioned while looking a bit uneasy herself.
Back on Wayland...
It was quiet on the planet surface of Wayland as the Rebels landed their troops, taking care not to be spotted by the Imperial turbolasers defense grid that was protecting the comm. center. "Okay now, here's the plan you two." one of the Rebel field commanders said addressing R2 and C-3PO. "You must gain access to the central computer matrix located on the northernmost tower. Once you do that, hack the computer to make it seem like that we have clearance to land on Fresia." "Pardon me sir, but what will you do?" 3PO asked nervously. "As for us, we will land our T2-B tanks to intercept any Imperial vehicles. And then to cover the troopers, we have a few infiltrators to help us out so don't worry; you won't be harmed." "Oh, I feel so much better." 3PO said while R2 beeped in agreement.
Meanwhile, back in the Leaf Village...
"Shadow Possession Jutsu!" Shikamaru said while trying to ensnare Sakura in his shadow. But predictably, Sakura jumped out of the way and readied her own attack. "Ok, Shikamaru. Let's see what you think of this!" She then pulled out a bag, threw it at him and slashed it open with a kunai. I see, so she's going to try to trap me in an explosion... Shikamaru thought as he retracted his shadow back to him. "Sakura!" he said suddenly. "Huh?" she asked. "I'm sorry, but that won't work on me because after all; if you can't SEE... then what good is your trick?" Hey wait a minute; is he actually going to try to blind me? She couldn't help but wonder. "Because after all, what good is a person's aim if they can't see well?" he said as he readied his newest jutsu. What does he have up his sleeve this time? After all, he always was the tactician in battle... she thought as she prepared for his attack. "And now, this is considered 'Shogi' checkmate!" Shikamaru said, throwing a giant flash bomb up in the sky. "!" was her surprised reaction as he did the attack. "CHECKMATE!" Shikamaru yelled as he held up his hand. "Shadow Style: Shadow Crushing Palm Jutsu!" Wow, *gulp* that's going to leave a mark! She thought while having the "blank eyes" look that's seen in various anime.
Meanwhile, back at Wayland...
"We're under heavy fire! We need assistance!" was the alarmed call from one of the Rebels as they were trying to protect the two droids from enemy fire. "It's no good, we need more time to hack into the central computer!" They knew that the Empire had a small garrison on the planet but what they DIDN'T know was that there was a secret AT-ST manufacturing complex a little ways into the forested area of Wayland. And apparently the Imperials had made a decently sized squadron of AT-ST walkers to assist the little troops that they DID have on the planet. "Come on R2, aren't you done yet?" 3PO cried in a panic as the walkers drew closer. "Sundered Arrow, do you copy?" suddenly came from one of the comlinks the soldiers had. "Base One? Is that you?" one of the soldiers answered back. "What is your current situation, Sundered Arrow?" was the reply. "We're under attack from AT-ST walkers on Wayland, we need assistance!" said the Field Commander calmly as his troops continued to defend the area. "Copy that, we're sending a Y-Wing squadron now." was another reply.
"So this is it; the X-Wing. With this, the Empire doesn't stand a chance!"
"You're finished! Ninja Art: Snow Sakura Dance!"
