Star Wars : The Missing Brother
Chapter 7. New Mission
"...picked you up, took you home, and here we are. I'll take one question from each one of you because you four look exhausted."
The eyes of the equines shows how tired they are and there's no denying it. A jumble of "yes, yeah, we are" came from them.
Sev, Kitchit and Arrikata all had small smiles from the astound looks the ponies had. With their facial expressions, this planet have no idea on what they're missing out on and it's best to stay that way. How Sev started with the first sentence, he knew they were riveted. He left out a lot of some good parts with plenty of gore since there was children and a timid adult around.
Scootaloo raised her hoof, "Was the crash landing hard when you came to Equestria? Any bad injuries? Cause Fluttershy could patch you up." "Rule 45: Any crash you can walk away from, is a good one. I'm sure we have non and thank you but we have small bacta tanks for healing wounds." Sev states. The wookies rolled their eyes.
Arrikata: Clones. Always trying to sound cool. Kitchit: Tell me about it.
Scootaloo squees at how awesome the rule sounds.
Sweetei Belle is the next for a question, "So you clones don't ask any questions when it comes to a direct order from your generals whatever it may be?" "No questions, no hesitation to act. Our duty is to the Republic and only the Republic." Sweetie awed at his answer.
"Ooh! Ooh! How many of ya are they in the galaxy?" Applebloom asks waving her hoof back and forth quickly in eager. The other ponies want to know as well. "Really hard to tell. But I believe there's a bout 16 million of my brothers not including K.I.A and M.I.A up to today." Applebloom was lost in her thoughts about his answer.
"Um after two weeks of imprisonment, do you miss your brothers? If y-you're okay with me asking." Fluttershy asks. The question was a good one. "Yes," he says with a missing home tone in his voice, "and I'm fine with you asking." He sighs. "When you've trained, fought, and have some fun time alongside with those who you grew up with, it just makes you homesick."
"I know how you feel." Fluttershy replies knowing what he means. "Fluttershy, with all do respect, you don't look like the type to fight." "Oh I don't like fighting. But if any of my my friends get hurt, believe me that I can get pretty scary."
"Believe her when she means that she can get scary, we've seen it before." Sweetie Belle assures that Fluttershy is telling the truth with the other two fillies nodding their heads.
"Alright I will," Sev slowly gets up to his feet. "it's time for us to get some shut eye."
"He's right, girls, take a shower and go to bed please,"
"But-" "No buts, it's late." They groaned and trot their way up to the bathroom.
Fluttershy turns around to see them heading out the backdoor. "Wait! Don't you want to sleep my house instead of going back to your pod? I can bring you extra sheets and pillows." Fluttershy offers.
Kitchit: We're grown ups and soldiers, we'll be fine. Arrikata: Aww come on. She's offering.
"I sort of understood you two but I think it's best for Sev to translate for me." "Kitchit said that we're grown ups and soldiers, we'll be fine. Arrikata said that you're offering. And I say sleeping outside would be better since we've been sleeping on cold, hard metal for a while."
"Oh pleeeese," Fluttershy begs them, "I don't want you guys to sleep out there after what you've been through." "No."
Fluttershy brought out her her adorable puppy eyes to persuade them to sleep inside. "Pwetty pwetty pwease?" She ask in some way to get the steel hardened soldiers to stay in. Her eyes glistering from the house light and giving a small pout along with it
Arrikata: UGH her eyes makes so hard not to say no! Look at how cute she is! I'm staying in.
He walks to her side and gently lift her up. "yay~" she quietly yells. He joins the puppy eyes with her at the other two.
Sev and Kitchit facepalms at this.
Kitchit: Sev, we could sleep outside by her animals. I also have to look over the rookie before he causes trouble.
"Fine. We'll be sleeping by your animals in the back. Arrikata, don't cause trouble while you're in the house." Sev said leaving to the back.
Arrikata: Gotcha. Uhh.. where do I sleep? Kitchit: Your problem, rookie.
Kitchit said walking out the door.
The night was cool, quiet, and no worries about any hostiles. Is this what the galaxy would be like if we won the war? Sev asks himself .After pondering about the peaceful night on equestria Sev gets comfortable and quickly fell asleep on one side the chicken coup with Kitchit on the other side.

After their mission on Kashyyyk, Delta Squad came back home on their ship. Defending The City of Kachirho, was hopefully the last mission for a while.
Taking off their armor into their comfortable clothes, Delta Squad readies themselves for a nice well deserved sleep.
"It's SO nice to have the 501st Legion and the 41st Elite Corps to come and take the fun." Scorch groans. "For once, I agree with six-two. Carrying all that ammunition and while fending off against Battle Droids? Count me out in a mission like that." Fixer adds in his complaint. "Well if weren't for us, then our brothers in the 501st and 41st wouldn't be able to have the necessities to battle against the droids. I'd call it a job well done." Boss puts his words in. "Well that's one way of looking at it Boss, buut if anyone need me, don't need me. 'Cause I'll be sleeping for a while so good night." Scorch says climbing into bed.
A conversation about how two clones sniped droids on Kachirho front lines passed by them. Scorch was angered by this and starts to go towards them instead of his bed. "HEY YO-" Scorch was stopped by Boss with a hand on his shoulders. The clones turned around, "Who us?" one of them ask. "It'a nothing. Keep it moving." Boss tells them. They continue with their conversation.
The two clones out of site, Boss began, "They don't know, you can't take your anger off of them." "They lived on this ship longer than we have! They should see that Sev's gone!" Scorch replies back.
"That's in the past, six-two, what happened, happened. I miss him as much as you do. All three of us misses him." Fixer joins in with their Squad Leader. "You missing him?! All you care is 'Protocol this' and 'Protocol that!'"
"We're clones! We're supposed to follow them!"
"And we're beings too! Not mindless droids!"
"All right both of you stop this instant! That's in order!"
The two quickly silenced. "Scorch, Fixer misses him. Haven't you noticed how he always talk like a living textbook?" Boss throws in a little joke that made Scorch chuckle. "Fixer, yes we're clone but we have emotions unlike droids. We care for each other and that's something those solegots won't and will never understand."
Scorch and fixer apologize each other and the three climbs into bed. "Like I said before: If you need me," "We get it. Now cut the chatter six-two and please go to sleep." Fixer interrupts him. "Okay, okay mister cranky pants." Scorch mutters to himself.
"Actually he won't be able to keep his mouth shut on this next mission you're about to get.I'm sorry that you guys haven't had sleep in a while but you're asking all the questions, I understand, and I'll answer them. The Clone Adviser's hologram popped up in the middle of their room.
"OH COME ON ADVISER!" Scorch yells. The three hopped off their beds and crowd the hologram
"Six-two, lock it up." Fixer tells him to quiet down. "What's the mission, Adviser? And what do you mean that Scorch won't be able to keep his mouth shut?" Boss said straight to the point.
"We just received an emergency call to the republic, and he's on an unknown planet and I need you three to do a search and rescue mission " Adviser started. "An unknown planet? This has my attention now." Fixer comments. "Forget the unknown planet, is the guy one of us? As in good guys?" Scorch asks.
"Yes he is a good guy Delta 62," "Whats so special about him? Why are we on the mission to get him?
"Because he's one of you. A member of Delta Squad, It's Delta 07. He's alive and not so well at the time we got his message." Clone Adviser told them all the information they need on who the person they're rescuing.
Delta Squad went silent for a while to let what they just heard was correct.
