Maddie and Danny arrived in Dimi and landed their ship outside the town. The two began searching for any news about Crash and their search lead them to a cantina. Maddie and Danny went inside and made their way to the bar. An old man with white hair and wrinkled skin eyed the newcomers.
"We're looking for an old friend. He fought in the Clone Wars." Said Maddie.
"We got a bunch of people in these parts, who either fought in the Clone wars or claimed to have fought in them." Said the old man.
"The one we're looking for is a clone named Crash." Said Maddie.
A human waitress, who had been delivering a bunch of empty glasses to the bar stopped to look at Maddie and Danny.
"I know who your talking about."
"Can you tell us where he is?" Asked Maddie.
"That depends, is he any kind of trouble?" Asked the waitress.
"No his not. Were a couple of friends of his and we wish to talk to him." Said Maddie.
The waitress eyed Maddie, before she spoke again.
"The guy, your looking for lives outside of town in a little canyon to the South. A few hours ago Crash saved me from a group of Stormtroopers that we're getting a little rowdy. Crash did like what was going on, so he came to my rescue and beat the Stormtroopers up. I thanked him, before he left." Said the waitress.
"Thank you for the information." Said Maddie with a bow.
"Please help Crash and get him faraway from here. The commander of the Stormtroopers and, his log aren't to keen on people standing up to them and soundly beating any member of their group." Said the waitress.
"Don't worry, will get him and take him away from here." Said Maddie.
Maddie and Danny left the cantina and rented some speeder bikes to travel outside of town. Several minutes later Sullivan and Brenner pulled up to the cantina, went inside, and started asking questions.
"I'm not telling you bounty hunters anything." Grumbled the old man behind the bar.
Sullivan and Brenner exchanged a look and then Sullivan grabbed the old man by the head, slammed it into the bar, and then he stabbed a knife into the bar a couple inches from the old man's head.
"Now you can give us the information old timer and will be out of your hair or things are about to become very unrighteousness." Said Sullivan.
The old man whimpered in fear before he gave the bounty hunters the information. Sullivan released him and he and Brenner left the bar. The two bounty hunters were fixing to hop on their speeder bikes, when suddenly six Stormtroopers came charging in and surrounded them. Bullet then arrived with Ricky, Dash, and Kwan behind.
"Hello bounty hunters." Said Bullet with a smirk.
Sullivan and Brenner gritted their teeth as they recognized Bullet. The agent waved his hands and the Stormtroopers lowered their weapons. Bullet approached the bounty hunters.
"Now normally I would have you two arrested for that incident at Arok's palace, but I know the Rebels had a hand in that little incident. So I'm going to ask you what your up to and decided what's going to happen." Said Bullet.
Brenner told Bullet what they were after and Bullet seemed to smile at this news. Bullet turned to Ricky.
"Assemble half you forces and prepare to move out. We have a clone to catch and maybe if we're lucky, will catch some Rebels."
Ricky saluted and went off to gather his forces. Bullet turned to Sullivan and Brenner.
"As for you two, you can come along and if you help us capture any Rebels I'll be sure to reward you both."
The bounty hunters nodded and took off on their speeder bikes.
Meanwhile outside the town, Danny and Maddie had entered a canyon and dismounted their speeder bikes to walk towards a large hut like building. They were a few yards away from the building, when a blaster bolt slammed into the ground a few feet in front of them.
"That's far enough! State your name and business!" Ordered a loud commanding voice.
Danny and Maddie looked up to see a man crouched on a ledge with a big laser rifle in his hands. The man wore a cloak the same color as the canyon walls, so he nearly blinded in with his surroundings. Maddie took a deep breath and removed her cloak and looked up at the man.
"Hello Crash, it's been a long time. It me Madeline, though I go by the name Maddie these days."
The man let out a gasp as he scaled down from the ledge and stood before Danny and Maddie to study them. Danny got his first real good look at the man and he saw that he had a white beard, a nearly bald head, with a small scar on the right side. This man was a clone.
"So...it really is you." Said Crash as he starred at Maddie and lowered his blaster.
"It is and it's good to see you Crash. I came to ask for your help to fight by my side once more." Said Maddie.
"Well count me in." Said Crash as he suddenly moved forward and embraced Maddie.
Maddie returned the embrace and then they stopped.
"I'm not going to lie to you about what we're fighting. Will be fighting the Empire and will be on the side of the Rebels." Said Maddie.
"You don't say. Well good, I hate the Empire and everything it's done. You and I have fought against impossible odds before, so it'll feel like old times." Said Crash with a big grin on his face.
"Like the old days." Said Maddie with a smile.
"Thanks for agreeing to join use." Said Danny.
"Whose the kid?" Asked Crash as he looked at Danny.
"That is my son, Danny." Said Maddie.
"Son, eh? Sounds like you've been busy these past years, why don't we head into my place and you can tell me what's been going on with you." Said Crash.
The three of them headed into the hut to talk.
To be continued.
