Disclaimer: I don't own anything this is just a story for fun.
Things were heating up a little in Goza. It was nighttime and there seemed to be a few more Stormtroopers patrolling the streets then usually. Four Stormtroopers passed an alleyway and as soon as they were gone Tucker and Wulf poked their heads out to see if the coast was clear, before they snuck out and headed down the street. The two Rebels were a bit on edge, they had never seen the Stormtroopers so determined to find them. Tucker held a small blaster in his hands, while Wulf carried a bowcaster in his. The Rebels soon reached one of the market places where they saw two Stormtroopers on speeder bikes talking to a group of five other Stormtroopers. The Stormtroopers on the bikes were Dash and Kwan getting a status report from the other Stormtroopers.
"Squad Captain Dash, we've searched all of Sector 8 and we have seen no signs of the Rebels." Reported one of the Stormtroopers.
"We'll keep searching then, I don't care how long it takes, were not going to stop until we find these Rebels." Said Dash.
"Yes sir." Replied the Stormtrooper before he and the others marched off to continue searching.
Dash and Kwan rode their speeder bikes away and Tucker and Wulf snuck through the market and continued on looking for a good place to hide. The Rebels made their way down some backstreets and they ended up in an alley between FentonWorks and another shop. Tucker and Wulf were fixing to move on, when they heard the sounds of Stormtroopers heading their way. Wulf raised his bowcaster and growled a little. The big Shistavanen was ready to fight, but Tucker quickly calmed his friend down.
"Look Wulf I know your tough and you hate the Empire, but if we attack now, will get overrun and caught. Everything you and me worked for will be for nothing." Said Tucker.
Wulf calmed down and lowered his weapon. Tucker then noticed an empty dumpster and headed towards it beckoning Wulf to follow him. They reached the dumpster, jumped into it, and closed it. At that moment Danny walked out of the side door of FentonWorks for some fresh air. Then teen felt the anger of the Stormtroopers and the fear of the locals as the Stormtroopers patrolled the area. It looked like it was going to be a rough night for everyone in general. It was then Danny picked up two feelings of anxiousness close by. Danny looked around, but all he saw was a dumpster. The teen decided to take a look inside the dumpster. Danny took a little breath and opened the dumpster and let out a startle shout as a look of surprise appeared on his face. Tucker and Wulf starred up at Danny equally surprise. A teenage boy was the last thing they expected to find them in the dumpster. The two Rebels looked up at Danny not quit sure what to say or do.
"Hey what's going on down here?" Barked a voice from the end of the alleyway.
Danny turned to see three Stormtroopers at the end of the alleyway looking at him. The boy glanced at the Rebels in the dumpster, who looked like they were fixing to leap out and start shooting and then back at the Stormtroopers. Danny knew what he had to do.
"Oh I just saw a Loth-cat eating a rat and it startled me when I came to take the trash out." Said Danny quickly.
The Stormtroopers looked at one another before one of them spoke.
"Ok. Go back to your business."
The Stormtroopers walked off and Danny let out a sigh of relief as he turned back to the Rebels, who has lowered their weapons.
"Nice save man. I thought we were going to have to take you hostage and shoot our way out." Said Tucker in a half joking voice.
"Thanks. Now if you don't mind me asking...are you guys Rebels?" Said Danny.
Tucker and Wulf exchanged a look, before they turned back to Danny.
"That depends. We could be Rebels or were not, depends on what you would do if we said we were Rebels." Said Tucker.
"Well if you were Rebels and if you were looking for a place to hideout, I would let you hide in one of my dad's garages. I don't trust the Empire and I believe what Chaos said about the Empire killing Governor Desman being was true." Said Danny.
Tucker and Wulf were surprised by Danny's response. They knew that the people of Casper heard Chao's message and they figured that would begin to question the Empire and eventually rise against it's rule, but they figured that it would take more then a day for anyone to want to side with the Rebels.
"Alright good answer. We're Rebels." Said Tucker as he and Wulf climbed out of the dumpster.
Danny led the two Rebels into his house and took them to one of the garages. The teen then told Tucker and Wulf to stay put, before he walked off to go get somethings. Danny went to the kitchen and was grabbing some water, when Jazz walked in and startled him.
"What you doing?" Asked Jazz with a yawn.
"Just having a late night snack, before I do a little cleaning up in the garage." Said Danny quickly.
"Ok, well don't stay up to late." Said Jazz as she shuffled off to her room.
Danny let out a deep breath, before he grabbed some food and water and then he grabbed some pillows and blankets, before heading back yo the garage. Danny handed Tucker and Wulf the supplies and they greatly thanked Danny.
"Thanks for letting us rest and hide here. Your taking a great risk for us and we appreciate it." Said Tucker.
"It's no problem, but don't let my sister see either of you, she's a steward who works at the Capitol and she greatly believes anything the Empire says and supports them." Said Danny.
"Your sister works and supports the Empire, but you don't." Said Tucker as he eyed Danny with a little suspension.
"I know it sounds odd, but hear me out. For the past few years...I've been able to sense the emotions of people around me. All the emotion I've sensed so far is fear and anger at the Empire. It's like there's this...big shadow hanging over everyone and it's causing all these negative emotions. I don't know how I'm able to sense other peoples's emotions, but maybe there's a reason. I was able to find you two guys by sensing your emotions." Explained Danny.
Tucker and Wulf exchanged a look. This did sound odd and it made the Rebels more curious about the teen.
"Well I'm Tucker by the way and this is my pal Wulf." Said Tucker as he introduced himself and Wulf.
"I'm Danny Fenton." Said Danny as he introduced himself.
Wulf walked over to Danny and starred at him for a few seconds, before he scooped him up in his big arms and began giving him a big bone crushing hug.
"Friend!" Growled Wulf in a big growly voice.
"That means he likes you!" Laughed Tucker as he watched the hug.
Wulf put Danny down and stopped hugging him. Danny rubbed his back a little and gave Wulf a small smile, before turning to Tucker.
"I want to join the Rebels."
"Look...Danny you seem like a good guy, but it's not my decision to make. I'm just an agent and the things we do are dangerous and life threatening. I'll mention you to my superiors, but I can't guarantee anything." Said Tucker.
"I know what the Rebels are doing is dangerous, but I just feel like I need to join them." Said Danny.
"I'll see what I can do, but no promises. Me and Wulf will be gone by morning and if the Rebels do need you, will come looking for you." Said Tucker.
"Alright. Thanks." Said Danny before he walked out of the garage.
A great encounter had happened that night and little did anyone know, they would be seeing a lot of each other soon.
