Hey everyone here are the three new chapters for today of Brothers in Arms. As I mentioned yesterday, some of the characters were inspired from Batman Begins but this is not a crossover. Batman Begins belongs to Christopher Nolan while Star Wars is owned by Disney. I own my OCs.
Chapter 13: Meeting Fixer
Apartment (Anthony's POV)
After Adam and I left the Jedi Temple, went to the nearest speeder dealer so that we could find a speeder that would help us get to our jobs and our apartment. After we got to the dealer it wasn't the long until we found a speeder to our liking and what made it better was that it was at a cheap price. Once we had a speeder it was time to find a place to call home. After searching for hours, looking for the an apartment that was close to me and Anthony's job and was comfortable to live in, we finally found the perfect apartment.
It was only 10 minutes away from the Jedi Temple and was 20 minutes away from the location of Anthony's job and that was only the location of the apartment. Once we got in our apartment we saw that it was perfect for us. It had 2 bedrooms, with 1 bathroom, a living room, and a kitchen. The price was a little bit high but realizing that the Counsel was paying for our rent meant that we had nothing to worry about. After we finished unpacking our things, Adam said, "Well looks like we're done here."
"Yeah finally." I said.
Adam looked at the empty living room and said, "All we need now is a couch, and a TV."
"Yeah I'll say." I said to him and then added, "So what do we do now?"
"Now we're gonna call it a day." He said and continued, "We've been through a lot today. And tomorrow we we're gonna pay this guy called Fixer, a visit." He said as the both of us decided to call it a day and decided to get some sleep.
Applied Sciences Department (Adam's POV)
After Anthony and I got up and had some breakfast in our new apartment, it was time to take a look at Anthony's new job. After driving in our new speeder for about 20 minutes we followed the coordinates to where Anthony's job was located. The coordinates lead us to a small building in between 2 larger buildings. We then walked inside we saw a female protocol droid standing behind a desk and asked, "Can I help you two boys with something?"
"Yes I'm here to see Mr. Fixer about a job." That sounded weird when Anthony said it.
"Are you two the Amor brothers?" It asked us.
"Yes we are." I answered.
The droid then escorted us to a small closet where it turned out to be a small elevator that took us down to an underground warehouse that looked the ending of Raiders of the Lost Arc. After looking at the warehouse we saw a booth that had a tan man with white hair and a white beard and mustache who looked liked he was in his sixties. The old man walked toward us where we asked, "Mr. Fixer?"
"Nobody calls me that." He responded. "You two can call me Fixer."
Anthony reached out his hand to shake him and said, "Hello my name is Anthony Amor and this is Adam Amor. The Jedi Council told us to come here for a job in applied sciences."
"Ahh yes. They told me you two were coming." He said to us and then said, "So what interests you in applied sciences?"
"I don't know." Anthony said but asked, "What do you got here?"
"Military and science projects, and products. All not into production." He said to us.
"None?" I curiously said.
"None. Now come on. Let me give you a tour and show you some of the things." He said as he showed us around the warehouse. After walking for a few minutes he explained, "When the war started, scientists and weapon manufactures created hundreds of projects to help them win the war. Every failed project was put into this warehouse to keep it from falling it into the wrong hands. Ah here we are." We then stopped as the floor in front of us began to open where two suits of armor began to rise.
One suit of armor was black and light purple with armor plates covering its legs, arms, and had a helmet that had two v visors that were over each other. The other armor was white and blue with a lot more armor covering it the body because the plates were attached to each other as one suit, unlike the other suit were the plates were separated. The helmet resembled most to a fighter pilots helmet from our world. Mr. Fox said to us, "Arc trooper survival suits, for advanced infantry. This armor carries small thrusters that allow the user to jump higher, run faster, and hit harder."
"Bullet proof?" I asked.
"This suit can take a shot from a powerful sniper." He answered.
"Lightsaber proof?" I asked.
"Unfortunately not." He answered.
"How come they didn't put this into producrtion?" Anthony asked.
"Because the Republic didn't have enough money to make enough suits for an entire army of clones." He said, "Now come on."
As we walked around the warehouse I asked Fixer, "So how when did you started working here?"
"I started, when I was still young but as I started to age and the Republic didn't need clones, I transferred my self to this department." He explained.
"You were in the Clone Army?" Anthony asked.
"Oh yeah." Fixer said. "I helped some of the younger clones train for their missions before they were sent to the battlefield." We then continued our tour until we saw a large black ship that was 50 yards long with large wings. Mr. Fox then said, "This baby here is the Nightstalker. She was designed to bypass enemy lines by activating it's cloaking device, allowing it to be undetected by any ship. We never could get the cloaking device to work, but this ship flies just fine."
He then pointed at a couple of small fighters with small wings that were small enough to fit one person. "These two fighters are called Prowlers. The reason why they're so small is that they were designed to out maneuver any fighter, but it wasn't put into production because the Republic wanted bigger ships."
After he said that we continued our tour as her showed us all kinds of projects that weren't put into production such as guns, grenades, and even a lightsaber that was designed for the survival suits. I couldn't believe that the jedi and the Republic didn't want these projects in production. Before he was going to show us the last thing on the tour he said, "Here is the last thing I'm going to show you on this tour and it is the crown jewel of this warehouse." He then took out two microchips. One was glowing green and the other was glowing blue. He then said, "Adam, Anthony, I'd like to introduce you two Zeta and Theta." And then two little holograms of a small blue glowing human girl, her name was Zeta and a small green glowing of a human boy showed up, his name was Theta.
"Wow...what are they?" Anthony asked.
"They're A.I.s that were developed for the survival suits to help aid them in combat." Mr. Fox said. "But when the Republic denied the production of the suits, every project that was related to them was put out of production and these were forced to live inside this warehouse." I was shocked to here this.
"So does the Republic really care if some of this equipment goes missing?" I asked.
"Nope. Everything is checked by me and if anything goes missing I notify the Republic. Why?" He asked.
"I want to borrow something. To help me out at my job at the Jedi Temple." I said to him.
"What did you need?" He asked.
"I want to borrow Zeta. As my personal assistant. If you're not comfortable with this then I compl-" I was then interrupted.
"Adam the way I see it, you and your brother can use some of this stuff because nobody is really gonna care if any of this goes missing." He said to me. After our conversation everything went well as me and Anthony wondered around the warehouse for the rest of the day.
Well it looks like Adam and Anthony have made two new friends. It looks like Fixer got a long with them well but how will Adam's students think about their new teacher? Keep reading and find out.
