Chapter 5
-9:00pm King's Row-
"Easy now Rex, we are in unknown territory, maybe an uncharted sector of space." One of the voices said. The other man, now known as Rex, "I know what to do sir, you just worry on our way back." Rex retorted. The other man chuckled "You know me Rex, when have I ever got us out of trouble?" Rex stared at him with his helmet on. "Really? With all due respect, Anakin, last time you tried that, we had almost a battalion of droids attacking us." Rex replied. The other man, now known as Anakin, laughed. "You got me there Rex." "Alright, let's just find Knight eh?" Rex retorted. "Ok, let me sense him." Anakin raised his hand and eventually got a lock on of Knight's aura. "That way." Anakin said pointing Northwest. "Alright, let's go." Rex responded. They set off at once on the aura of Knight.
-Watchpoint Gibraltar- -Knight's POV-
I was awoken instantly by Lena shaking my arm. "KNIGHT, KNIGHT, WAKE UP!" she shouted at me. I woke up groggily and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes with Lena still shaking me. "Yes, yes, I'm up. What is it?" I said to her. "Quick, turn on the news!" she told me. I turned on the TV and switched to the news channel and I nearly choked on the air I was breathing. The TV showed a picture of…"General Skywalker, Captain Rex!" I said a little too loud. "Who are they?" Lena asked. "My commanding officer and my clone brother." I said to her. "How they got here, it's completely unknown to me." "I need to find them, now!" I exclaimed to her. I heard Winston say into the intercom "That's not going to be a problem Knight, come to the mess hall." 'Hmmmmm' I thought. I got dressed into my armor and placed my helmet at me side. Lena came up and we walked together holding hands. But I was so concentrated on the task at hand. We made it to the mess hall and I saw General Skywalker with cock-eyed grim and he saw me come in. "Hello Knight, it's good to see you again!" Rex came up and hugged me. "It's so good to see you brother!" he said. "I'm glad you're safe Rex, and it is good to see you too General Skywalker, I take it the commander is being frantic as usual?" I said amusingly. "Hahaha, yeah she has been pretty frantic." Anakin replied. "That's the commander I remembered." I laughed. "Don't you want to introduce us to the lady?" Anakin asked. "Oh, I'm sorry, General Skywalker, Captain Rex, this is Tracer." I said introducing Lena to my brother and commanding officer. "Please, call me Anakin, and I do believe you know Rex." Anakin said to Tracer. "The name's Lena." Lena said shaking Anakin's hand then Rex's. "It's an honor to meet you, Knight has talked highly of you." Lena said. "Did he now?" Anakin and Rex said looking at Knight. "Yeah, do you guys want to have a tour of the base?" I asked. "Why not, could be fun." Rex replied. Me and Lena had walked around the base and met some of the other agents so Anakin and Rex could get better acquainted. We then went back to the mess hall to talk about what happened after I left. "The Jedi Order decided that one lost clone wasn't going to hurt the Army so they stopped looking for you." Anakin said. "So they gave up on me?" I said with horror. "Yeah, I tried all in my power to change their decision, but they were stubborn." Anakin replied. I sighed and realized they did have a point, one lost clone wasn't going to hurt the Army tactically. "I see, so you took it upon yourself to find me?" I asked them. "You think I was going to leave my friend behind?" Anakin said. "I appreciate you coming to find me, I truly do, but you might as well go back. I have decided to stay here." I said to them. They were both taken aback. "Why?" Rex asked. I held Lena's hand and they must have understood. Anakin nodded "Don't worry about the rest of the 501st, I'm sure they will understand." Anakin said placing a hand on my shoulder. Rex had a few tears in his eyes. "Don't cry Rex, I'll always be with you." I said placing a hand on his shoulder. Rex nodded, the moment was short lived as what felt like a bomb shake the building. I looked at Lena and we nodded as we raced outside. I placed my helmet on when we got out side. I looked and saw 6 Talon ship's opening fire on the base. The other agents came out and prepared to fire. I drew the lightsaber as the first Talon dropped the first battalion of Talon soldiers. I ran and slashed their guns and the agents opened fired. I jumped into a small ship and flew to the warships. I eject out and smashed through the glass and sliced anything that looked important and jumped out to the next. As I was doing this I happened to glance at the battle on the ground, I saw Lena fighting Widowmaker, Anakin slicing the droid talon soldiers in half, Rex was fighting Reaper. I continued until there was one left. I jumped into the last warship and slashed all the driving instruments and ran to the core slashing anyone who got in my way. I overheated the core and ran for the hangar and saw all the planes where gone. I stood in horror as I had no exit off the almost destroyed ship. I pressed a button on my helmet, "Lena…I think I bit off more than I could chew." I joked. "Knight! What are you doing?" She yelled into her earpiece. I laughed a little. "I don't think I'm coming back." I said to her. Hana must have been listening in because she said "What do you mean bro? You are coming back!" She declared. I chuckled lightly "Lena, whatever happens, know that I love you now and forever. I want you to watch out for Hana, make sure she doesn't do anything reckless." I said to her. I took my helmet off and tossed it out the hangar. "Knight what are you doing?" Anakin yelled into the earpiece. "My job sir." I said to him. I ran to the controls hoping I didn't destroy it too much and guided it to the ocean. "KNIGHT DON'T DO THIS!" Lena screamed into the earpiece. "I can't do that love, just know that I always had a plan to marry you one day." I said to her.
-Lena's POV-
I was taken back from what Knight said. I covered my mouth and bawled my eyes out. The battle was over and Widowmaker and Reaper where in custody. Hana ran and hugged my side and cried with me. I embraced the hug and we both cried as we held each other. Anakin and Rex came to our side and comforted us. "Are you sure about this Knight?" Anakin said in his earpiece. I heard his voice say "Yes, I'm sure about it sir. It's been an honor to serve with you all. I love you Hana and my beautiful wi-"His voice cut off. "Knight? KNIGHT!?" I screamed. Silence was all that was left on the channel. I continued to cry as I now know my fiancée had died.
-3rd POV-
As the Talon ship exploded, a piece of metal and a human figure on it seemed to fall into a forest.
A/N: This part of the story was really cool to write, I had this story in my story. I hope you all enjoy it even more. Knight signing off.
