Summary/disclaimer: It is time for another chapter of Jolt of Metal. Enjoy the 2200-word chapter. I do not own Star Wars or Halo. Microsoft, Disney, and 343 do.

He had not the foggiest clue as to how this was going to go, he did not know how it was going to be. The cloners were good at putting a lot of thoughts in his head, but they were not good at seeing them through to the end. If anything? He had not the foggiest clue as to how this was going to be before now.

If he was honest? The idea had not yet coursed through the ARC's brain. There was a lot more on the brain than that, something else that had not been there before now.

There was a lot more to question… A lot more to do before now. If nothing else?

They had a longer mission to focus upon, one which could not be further from the truth, there was something that had not yet been answered and he wanted some answers.

Good answers for now. She had not the possible ideas, for now, ones that would be easily stopped.

There was something here. Something that had not yet been able to have been fully realized. It hurt more than anything, but he knew more than to let this get the best of him… He would be damned if it did.

Such measures did not kill him, only served to get him to a state where he was able to fully enjoy himself.

This was not a problem, it had all been so odd before he questioned when it hammered when it was all over.

It had been something that had to be over, it had to be exactly the way it should have been. Jolt knew he focused more and more on the smaller details when it came down to it. He looked around, slowly looking over the rest of the valley.

"We're going to need to get going before the clankers get on marching," Jolt stated to which he sighed. "Someone contacts command and tell them we're going to get going," Jolt stated before he sighed and slowly started to march forward.

"And what about the damn clankers?" Jolt heard before he sighed before he looked around. "I'll contact them soon; we need to get going anyway." Jolt heard before he rolled his eyes.

"All of this is coming crashing down on the seppies' heads," Jolt stated.

He hummed and then paused before looking to the side which was followed when he rested his rifle on his shoulder.

They had a lot more details to iron out at this moment for now. It was not to be easy nor would it be quick and painless. All their planning would have been for nothing as they tried and failed to remind themselves of what had been happening and how it would have gone.

Then again? Jolt was a soldier, a part of the republic. A gear in the damn cog that churned the republic.

It was something else that needed to have gotten worse and could be a lot worse. Much worse for now at the time.

What else was going on here? They had a lot more to see and do next, a decision at the end of the day that had to be done, something that continued to bother them at the end of the day, a lot more to see and do for now, a decision to grow far beyond.

What else could be done to fix it? What could be done about it all as of now? They had a lot more to see and do at the end of the day, something that kept bothering him for now, a decision to be beyond this for now, a desire to grow beyond it for now, a lot more than usual… Way more than usual.

They had a lot more to fight than usual, and they were willing to all grow beyond it, so much that it hurts for now, a decision that he truly is for now, a desire to try and understand it all.

They had a lot more to this, a lot more they could see and deal with for now, something that could grow beyond it for now, they had a lot more to see and do now. It had to end again and again for now, something that continued to bother them for now, a lot more to try.

Jolt sighed and leaned on his rifle. It was timed in such situations that it bothered him to be a clone, Jolt was good at shooting things, VERY good at it, and yet at the same time? Well, such problems only began to cut loose more and more, slamming free until they ended more and more.

Jolt did not have the wisdom of a Jedi. The patience of one either. He was very good at fighting and scrapping Droids, all and all his talents were used only to cut down the enemy, never to combat them on a scale unseen or even unheard of.

Did it hurt Jolt to know he was a soldier and little else? Yes…. But it was a very good thing in his mind, something that could be spun out of control more and more.

"We need to get going soon, Shinies, or else this is going to end sometime soon and it will need to focus upon. They had a lot more to deal with and you know it. We cannot try and focus with all the clankers in the way." Jolt said before he clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth.

They had a lot more to understand, something that could get to a level now while it was all over. He had a lot more to fathom as he looked down at the rest of the droids, unsure if he rained down droid poppers and what would come next, he was all too ready for a moment and he would be able to deal with what was left.

They had a lot more to fight even if they cut through dozens of droids. He would not be prepared for it, all too of it all, not eager to find out.

"How many of them do we need to take out before it ends? I do not think we can take them in a fair fight, sir." Volt said before he looked to the side.

They had a lot more to try and figure out and this was a lot more to try and deal with than it was possible to and could be dealt with within a reasonable time.

Volt looked at the massive rows of droids as he did so, he did not even know what to try and deal with before he honestly seemed to be relaxed once more. All of it seemed to be unfathomable at the end of the day.

Volt seemed to be able to relax once more as he looked down at the ground before he cracked his fingers.

How many droids did they throw at his friends? How many of them seemed to be thrown at his group? How many of them were thrown at the rest of the Republic? He seemed to try and figure out how many soldiers the droids would send against them.

All of it only made him scream, unsure of what to try and figure out for now and he did not at all know what to do next.

He would be able to relax more as he hummed and clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth. There was a lot more to try and end as he sighed before slowly yet surely gasping to himself.

The ideas running through his mind would be impossible to deal with for now. Something about it all seemed to keep growing, especially at the end of his morals with an idea that would need to keep blooming for now as he hummed.

This was not something that needed to end for the moment to try and deal with it all. They had the effort to put in.

Jolt was utterly able to try and figure it out for the time being as he clicked his fingers before aiming it to the side with amusement.

This would not be done, an idea that it would end for now before she seemed to keep growing more and more with such an idea that would be dealt with for now as he seemed to be utterly to try and deal with.

He seemed to be relaxed… Relaxed more and more with something to be thrown off as she seemed to be thrown off for now… She would not be utterly thrown for now.

Jolt was too tired, unsure of what to try and figure out what to do again and again with something to be dealt with for now.

This was not going to be thrown for now, this would not be something that could be relaxed for now at the time being as she relaxed for now… An idea that could be done with for the time being.

There was just too much to try and cut through, something that would be dealt with for now, an idea that seemed to be thrown for now while it seemed to try and figure something.

He hummed, pausing more and more for now. This was chaotic enough to try and deal with it for now, again and again with every little moment as he paused to think of what was going on with each passing second of the day.

He was too thrown as he cracked his fingers and then continued to look over their warriors, he would not be too trying to keep thinking of it, to try and fight through more and more soldiers.

He would not be willing to go to war, to fight through them again and again, he wanted nothing to have been kept off the table, too interested in the next move he made.

Perhaps he would be willing to fight if he was too relaxed for now, he cracked his fingers as he seemed to be too interested in what was going on.

He would be too interested in the next move even if he went to war, he would be too disturbed even if he acted in such a way to have put it all down for now. He was too bothered, too tired for now to keep fighting in the way he had at the time which would not change for now for good reason at the end.

He had been too interested in what he would keep growing more and silent at the end.

She had been unable to deal with it again and again in ways which it could have thrown itself to the ground.

Such was life, that was all it was that would happen once again. He had not been able to deal with it as she seemed to try and think of what came down to it.

Perhaps much was fun, it made them allow themselves to help, it was fun enough to taste and yet relaxing enough to try and fix it, something was shimmering under the surface. Such was life and yet it was clear more and more to it.

There was a lot more to their plans than this and all of it simply pushed him to relax for now as he clicked his fingers.

This all seemed to be dealt with for now and for no real regard as it came to it before now. All such things were coming to an end sooner or later.

All of it made him ready and revving to sleep and relax.

There was a moment of peace, of acting like he held no idea how to act…. And it bothered him in ways he could not have done so. He held no real idea as to the future.

He held it in his grasp that if they did survive it all the way. Arc Troopers as he wished to try and figure it out once more as he wished to let himself as he wished to try and figure it out once more.

He had been too eager to try and think of what was going on before he seemed to try and figure it out once more.

The Arc Trooper was silent, he would be done when it came down to it as he wished to try and figure it out once more. He sighed to himself and then looked to the side before he ended it for now and good.

He seemed to be done and figured out as he clicked his fingers before he looked to the side as he thought once more as he wished to be done and figured out.

He was all too interested in it before he looked to the side.

He had to know it for now and always.

Author Notes

Phew. Another chapter is done! I want to point out that the next chapter will be delayed. It will be longer for now and will be 900-6500 words. The next chapter will be in 2-10 months and will show more and more of both the ARC troopers and their allies…. Until then? Lighting Wolf out!
