Rett sprinted out of the communications center heading as fast as he could to the medical bay. As he ran he spoke hectically into the comm-link on his wrist."Vale, I need communications with that shuttle established now! And sound the alarm, if that shuttle goes down we need to send a rescue team immediately!"

"I'm on it Admiral, the base security team has been alerted but there's no response from the med-bay!" She replied frantically, worry in her usually calm voice.

"I'm heading there now anyway, tell the security team to prep the Lambda, we need to be ready." He said as he turned a sharp corner, rushing down a set of stairs finally reaching the medical bay.

I/I/I/I

CT-7713 lay in his bunk, staring at the plain grey ceiling above him. He lay as he usually would in his bunk above the Rookie he was training. The room was a bland grey like the rest of the station and tonight like most nights he was struggling to sleep.

CT-7713 or Charmer as his old brothers had nicknamed him was, as usual, unable to sleep. He wasn't sure why he was so restless but ever since his arrival on Eadu he had restless nights and tiring days.

He had developed noticeable bags under his eyes that didn't suit his handsome yet aged features. The clone ageing process was getting to him now. His hair was greying but he kept himself shaved. He still had the deep brown eyes he shared with many of his brothers. He was also one of the last clones created on his homeworld of Kamino, a home he knew he would never see again.

Well, at least he still had his silver tongue even in his later days. He had, afterall, earned his nickname for a reason.

Suddenly there's was a loud and intrusive beeping, making Charmer jump, smacking his head against the ceiling of his shared quarters.

The loud clang that was created by this incident had the unfortunate affect of waking up his bunk mate and cadet Eno Phyte. The boy was young, Charmer would argue too young. And in the name of the Force he would swear he would never meet a more annoying person.

Charmer could hear the groans of the waking rookie behind him as he leaped off his bunk, reaching for the comm-link in his locker. His pristine white armour, perfectly laid out he quickly activated the comm-link.

"This is Cha- I mean, this is CT-7713, what's all the fuss about?" He quickly asked, rubbing his eyes with his free hand.

"Heya Charmer, better sleep tonight?" Vale asked. Before he could answer she spoke once again. "We've got an emergency on our hands, a Zeta-class transport shuttle is coming in through dangerous weather, if it goes down we need to be ready!"

"Sure thing Vale, be up there before you can say parsec." he said as he pulled on his black body glove. He grinned with excitement, finally he would see some excitement on this bland rock.

He pulled open Eno's locker, pulling out his helmet and throwing it at the lump that was currently covered by a blanket. He heard a slight oof as the helmet made contact.

"Get up nerfherder, we've got an emergency!" He said more jovially than perhaps he should have.

"Yeah yeah old-timer, finally retiring?" Eno groaned as he sat up, his brown hair a mess on his head. He had what could only be described as sharp features, he was thin with sharp nose and chin and his eyes were an icey blue.

"Not quite yet, shiny. We could be making a trip planetside. A shuttle has gone missing, now get your armour on!"

Charmer stood proudly as he lifted his helmet, his final piece of armour. At least he hadn't lost his touch quite yet. He looked into the blackened eyes of his helmet before turning it and sliding it on over his head.
