Sup, guys? Lighting Wolf here, back for another story, this one about Star Wars. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I do not own Star Wars Lucas Arts, and a few others do.
Anakin would never call himself a very focused person. He was a Jedi; they were not the most emotional brand of people and they did things that they could barely understand. Work came first to a Jedi and anything else was more to them than anything.
Such was why he did not like things like meditating… He was not very much like a Jedi; he was more and more like a soldier than anything…
And it bothered the other Jedi, it bothered them because they could not handle or fathom it. They were not perhaps used to such a thing when it came down to it.
Something like what he was dealing with for now was why Obi-Wan was with him. He and Ahsoka seemed to be the only ones who could have kept a lid upon him being like this as such things were beyond what the Jedi could deal with.
He was too amused by his work to consider dealing with it… And too unused to such a thing that it had cut deeper and deeper into him.
Granted? Being a Jedi tended to make him question just what he was doing but it would be harsher to deal with for now at the time being when it was all said and done.
It was something else to deal with for now… All of it was curious as it came down to it as he relaxed. He would not become too much to deal with.
The clone trooper finally lowered the pair of macrobinocluars, turning towards the others.
"Looks like at least 500 clankers… Plus armor, intel was right." He stated, passing the object to his partner.
"Eh, 500 or 5000. They all break the same." The first Clone heard as he snorted.
"You ain't the one who fights these things… Tell General Skywalker. He asked us to recon." The first clone stated with some interest in his tone.
It was just odd to him what he was doing here, they had no real reason to be fighting here but orders were orders. General Skywalker had to know more than he did now… Lest he be wrong?
His commander was many things but not wrong about this… Not about what they were currently dealing with.
That and he knew the coming battle was something… Most of the 501st and 212th were here which meant there were even more droids than he believed there were.
If so? It was a hard pill to swallow even for him. The 501st would continue to relax, they would continue to fight once more. All of it was too much for now.
He hummed and then distracted himself by looking up and into the sky. There was a storm coming and there was a battle to deal with either way.
He was all too distracted by such a thing to focus on what was occurring. They would need warriors and they would need to answer the call of battle… To do nothing was something he could not allow. His brothers asked for aid and he would give it.
It was only then he felt sorry for what they would have to do for them to win. Then again? They were fighting droids and those droids had neither the same morals nor the same desire to handle such work now.
Granted? It was more than they wanted for now, and always… They had much work to deal with for now and it would continue to grow faster and faster with each new second at the end of the day.
It was too much to deal with for now… It was all too beyond their means now. It was too beyond them for now, had to be done.
It had to have been done for the time being and that would not change, it was going to be hard for them to watch. Even then it would not change things for them all when push came to shove now and good… It had to have ended it all for now and for a good reason. Something about it all had to be ended now and good.
It was enough for them all and it would not have helped them much when it was all done and dusted for the time being when it was done.
It had to be done.
Author Notes
Phew. The first chapter is done! I want to point out that the next chapter will be in 2-10 months and it will end up being 900-6500 words. It will also show most of the battle and set up the jump into either Halo or Mass Effect. Anakin and Obi-Wan will be the main characters. As will the clone. Until then? Lighting Wolf out!
