"Hi! You're watching 'Question Corner', and I'm your host, Kale." I said, wearing a blue dress and heels, "Today, we have with us a special guest." I gestured to my left, "And I'm not going ot make you guys wait, so, everyone, please welcome Echo!" The man didn't even have a chance to step on stage before I watched the crowd break out into a series of clapping/cheering. The fan-girls yelled 'I love you's!' and a couple of trouble makers yelled out 'Sorry, you died!' I scowled at them for a moment, but let it be; figuring, Echo probably didn't hear it anyway.

I met him in the middle without a single issue of 'tipping' or 'waddling', and that was due to Mini's brilliant 'heel walking' lessons. It took hours, but I figured heels were meant for special occasions and this was more than special, so I came prepared. While shaking Echo's hand, I gave him a soft smile and it was a comfort to see him return the action. However, getting to finally meet Echo gave me mixed feelings. Having him here, looking so happy, was amazing, but to know that he was actually gone wasn't the easiest thought.

Nevertheless, I pushed the idea to the back of my mind and offered him a seat, but didn't pick up the cards immediately. Instead, I crossed one leg over the other and was about to welcome him to the show when he said, "Thank you for inviting me, Miss Kale. I've heard of your show before, but I didn't actually think I'd get invited."

I paused for a second as I felt my heart just chipped a little. Clearing my throat, I replied, "Well, you know, we were really glad to find out you'd be able to make it. People have wanted you on for sometime now, Echo." I nodded towards the stack of cards resting on the coffee table, "Not to mention the amount of question's they've asked."

He said, "That's a great honor." as he placed his helmet down by his feet.

"Hey," I scooped the cards up and asked with a lopsided smile, "Would you like to hear them?"

"I would."

"Alright then, we'll start our questions off with, 'How close are you and ARC Trooper Fives?'. By 'Ahsokatano191'."

"Pretty close." He nodded, "We've looked out for each other from the beginning."

"Was it always like that?"

"I can't think of a time when we weren't." He added, "I'm sorry it's not more dramatic than that."

"No, no." I held up my hand, "Some questions just have simple answer. Now, let's take a look at whose next. Ah, yes, from, ''Jedi-TARDIS-Chick101'. She asks, 'Do you like the nickname Echo? Because, I think it's an awesome name.'"

He smiled at this, "No, not originally. At the beginning, I hated the name. In fact.." He scratched his lower jaw line as he began to reflect, "I never wanted a name. I didn't even think that any other clone should have one, either."

"Why's that?"

"It was just my shiny point of view coming out. If the Kaminoans thought that numbers were acceptable for us, then I was willing to take it. And Echo," He let out a rough chuckle, "that didn't help my opinion of nicknames either; Considering, I only got it because I was repeating orders in my sleep."

I chuckled as I asked, "Do you regret your name, now?"

"No. Not anymore."

"Good; because, it suits you." I read the next question in line, "'TheDoctorCT-21-0408' wants to know if you like your unique hand print?"

"I do. It's nice having something that's different."

My eyes shifted downwards to see the marking on his armor, and I commented, "It does look unique. Okay, 'Lightsaber12' asks, 'Does Fives have another close brother?'"

Echo gave a faint shrug, "Not of any that I know of, but you'd have to ask Fives that."

After this, I stood up and began to decrease the wrinkles from my dress; saying, "Before we continue on with our show, we'll grant a few requests."

"What kind of requests?"

I grabbed his gloved hand and pulled him up from the brown chair. "Requests from people who want to meet you."

He furrowed his brows. "You know, that's not technically what I asked."

"You'll find out." I replied, before saying to the crowd. "Is Sithlord8665, Jedi-TARDIS-Chick101, TheDoctor-21-0408, and Dogmatup24 with us tonight?" And, as I listed off the names, Echo watched them stand up one by one. When they made their way down the stairs, the young Trooper flashed me a look of curiosity.

"So, I assume you've never seen 'Question Corner' before, then?"

"No."

"You never saw Fives on air?" I asked, but he sent me an amused glance at this inquire, and I could only raise my hands in defeat. "You were away on a mission. Sorry, I didn't think about that." Right then, the group reached the stage and came to stand beside me. I pointed to JediChick101 first, who had on a black blouse and jeans, and gave her the go ahead.

Approaching the trooper, she extended her hand and looked up at him expectantly as her hand waited patiently in mid-air. Echo, glancing from the hand and her face, stuttered to return the gesture. "So, that's what you meant by requests." He flashed me a smile, before turning his attention back to JediChick101. "Hi, I'm Echo."

The audience laughed at his kind introduction; because, everyone already knew who he was. But, after they finished, the young fan said, "I just wanted to say thank you. For everything." Before he could comment on this, she turned around and went back in line with the others.

I nodded towards Dogmatup24, who had on a black shirt and jeans. When He came up to shake Echo's hand, the young trooper again introduced himself, and Dogmatup followed suit. Then he went back to the others.

I patted TheDoctorCT on the shoulder, and she had on a polo shirt, jeans, and riding boots.

This time Echo extended his hand first, half expectantly her to do the same. But, when she reached out and hugged his torso tightly, Echo just stood there dumbstruck. His arms pulled back as he looked down at the young woman embracing him. Then, he stared at me with his mouth agape. After the shock passed, his arms gently lowered around the girl and he hugged her back before she would release him and go back in line.

Finally, I told Sithlord to go forward, and she fashioned a short, sleeved dress, black leggings, and knee, high boots. Walking up to the ARC Trooper with her hands clasped behind her back and her cheeks reddening, she managed a lopsided smile. "Hi." She gushed.

Echo, staring back at her, cracked a smile and extended his hand to her. "I'm Echo. It's-" Without giving him a chance to finish, she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a small peck of a kiss on the cheek. But, she only held him there for a split second before she brought her arms back down to her sides and retreated. JediChick gave her friend a small high-five when she was within arm reach as the audience roared with excitement around them. Echo sent be a shell-shocked expression.

Holding back a laugh, I ushered everyone to go back to their seats. When they were gone, I playfully punched the stunned Trooper in his upper arm. "So-uh...Fives left out a few details here and there, huh?"

He replied, "Well, some useful head-ups would have been nice." as he scratched the back of his neck.

"Now, where's the fun in that?" I teased as we both retook our seats. Picking up the last of the cards, I asked, "You think you can answer a few more questions? A lots been thrown on you." When I saw him nod, I smiled and read, "From, 'Emerald the Warrior Princess' to Mr. Echo, 'What was it like in the Citadel?'"

He began to list off with his fingers, "Lots of droids, over heated rooms, electrified walls, too many closing doors. I don't suggest you vacation there." The crowd laughed outright.

I chuckled before reading, "'Ahsokatano191' asks, 'Would you ever defy orders?'"

"I've learned not be obnoxious with orders, but I don't think I'd ever disobey them."

"'Jedi-TARDIS-Chick101' asks, 'When you were on Rishi, did you ever wish to be on the front lines, like the others?'"

"Not at the beginning." Echo smiled, "I was perfectly fine with the silence and my rig manual; However, when I finally got a taste of the front lines, I found it hard to sit down and read a manual."

I asked, curiously, "So, which do you prefer? A rig manual? Or a day on the front lines?"

I caught him smirking as he answered, "A day on the front lines suits me more these days."

"'Sithlord8665' wants to know what your reaction was when you had to work with Captain Rex and Commander Cody?'"

"It didn't sink in until after it was all over, but working under their command was an amazing experience."

"And lastly, 'Dogmatup24' asks, 'Do you miss your Domino Squad? Besides Fives, that is."

After I asked this, he began to drum his fingers against the armrest before he laminated, "As cadets we were told that, statistically, a third of our squad would either die or be too injured to ever fight on the frontlines again. But, when you hear that, you don't believe it'll happen to you; because, the people standing around you is your family." He sighed, "My only silver lining is that they didn't die in vain." The audience gave a soft 'aw' at this, and it was a shame to end on a sad note, but I really should have organized the cards better.

When I stood up, he followed suit and picked his helmet as he did. Immediately, I reached out and shook his hand one last time. "May I say, Echo, you are an amazing soldier." As I shook his hand, I said, "May I also say, Fives in backstage ready to talk to you. About the mission, of course."

"Thank you." He nodded once, "It meant a lot that you invited me to your show, Miss Kale."

"It meant a lot to us that you came. Thank you." After we gave our exchange, I watched him go backstage before I turned to face the crowd once more. "We're coming to the end of the Brotherhood week, but not after one more important guest. Waxer!" As everyone began to clap, I turned and gestured Ashley to come on stage, and then handed her the 'thank you' card.

"On behalf of 'Question Corner'," She read, "we'd like to thank: Lightsaber12, CreatorsCasting, Rexorz, Darth tyrone, TheDoctorCT-21-0408, Grace, Dark Angel and Dark Star, Jhinx1, Emerald the Warrior Princess, Rogue 2k8, Sithlord8665, AngelAxexinf, Dark Brother 16, Jediclonecowgirl, Comrade, TripleThreat123, Weathergirl17248, Dovahkiin154, Dogma23, Rexsgirl123, Purplewillowtrees, NobelMeta, Kickincupcakebutts6, Glabierules, Ahsokatano191, JediChick101, Hazardous By Instinct, Celtice and Dukakis 2016, AaylaKit, Bookreaderninja, Yaya The Elf, AaylaKitofNiflheim, Dogmatup24, Spikala, Shadowclanwarrior, Snip1212, Captainrexbest35, Rex133668, Monsterhuntergod-Ratholas Mkl, TolkienGirl052, Nat13cat, AaylaKit, Avalonyx, AL0LT0, Just another fanfic author, Angel's anthem, Anakin Ahsoka, Azalea, Rose, Tessika 14, Queen, Thearistacats, Skywalker02, Onryo, KitFisto'sGirl, Alex Tsukino, Lady gaga, Lefty blondy, Ahsoka33, and TCTrent45!
