Cody hopped onto the transport, ignoring the men. He had a bad feeling about today, he just didn't know what. He nodded to Hawk as the Jedi hopped on board and they took off. Echo started to hum a little, then Odds began to sing softly.
"We're leaving together, but still its farewell and maybe we'll come back to earth, who can tell? I guess there is no one to blame. We're leaving ground. Will things ever be the same again?"
Cody shivered slightly as he listened, this was quite creepy.
"It's the final countdown! The final countdown!" Rex joined in, his voice low and mysterious.
"We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall," Echo took up the singing now as the others hummed in the background. "'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all. With so many light years to go and things to be foundz1 I'm sure that we'll all miss her so," Echo nudged Rex, smiling a little.
All of them joined in, including the Jedi," It's the final countdown! The final countdown! The final countdown!"
"It's the final countdown, we're leaving together," Echo faded out.
"The final countdown, we'll all miss her so!" Rex faded out.
"It's the final countdown," Odds finished, then silence filled the transport. Cody shook his head. Lack of sleep must be making him go crazy. Above him the red light came on.
"Get ready to go, boys!" Cody yelled above the noise as their transport was fired upon. "We all know our goal, so stick close to your partners and get the job done!"
The men nodded solemnly, checking their equipment. Cody moved to the side of the transport, ready to go. Obi-wan rested a hand on Cody's shoulder," Be safe out there."
Cody nodded," As always, sir."
Obi-wan nodded and as he turned away, Cody caught something in his eyes, but he couldn't place it.
The light turned green and Cody leapt out of the transport as soon as the door opened. Around him was white, on the ground, in the air, even starting to collect on himself. This was Rhen Var, ice planet, barely able to sustain life.
"Clear!" Odds yelled over the com.
"Move out!" Cody called as he made his way towards their target. Hopefully all his men would make it.
