Passing the Torch

Samantha Pov, before the Explosion

After I checked in with the others, I decide to stop a top of a Sand Dune. I stop and began search the area with my Binoculars.

Sand... sand... and even more Sand, I can see why Ani hated this place. It is similar to Ryloth other than the Tidal Lock that it's in. My mind then drifted to them, the girls, sure they are bred for war but what will happen to them after the war.

Breed for battle, ment to die for a Republic they never seen until now. Sure some of them can get jobs form Pilots to Communication Officers but most of them are Soldiers. I remove my Binoculars form eyes and let out a sigh.

Samantha Thoughts: I hope they find a future in which they can be happy, all them.

I raised my Binoculars back up and spoted a Floating sphere in sea of Yellow. Sure enough it was what I expected, an Separatist Probe Droid.

Samantha: Found you.

I put my Binoculars away and got on my speeder. I also turned on my Comlink to inform the others.

Samantha: X2, I found 1 of them.

X2 (coms): Roger that. I'm heading your way now, Ma'am.

Samantha: Negative, find the other 3, I got this one.

X2 (coms): Yes Ma'am

I press the throttle down pushing the speeder faster to catch the Droid. It didn't take long for me to catch up and for it to notice me. It began to fire at me as I return fire, Blue and Red Bolts beginning exchange between us.

1 of my bolts founds it's mark, hiting the droid causing it to fall on the ground. To which I stop close by and got off my speeder.

Samantha: X2, Anya, (Y/n), I got-

I notice that my Comlink was hit by a stray bolt that graze it. However the hit was enough for it to put it out of commission.

Samantha Thought: Great

I walked to the droid and sure enough it was a CIS Probe. Form the look of it, I disable it in a way.

Nava Pov

I watch the fleet prepare to get underway form my Command Chair on the Providence. I was called by Terra, 1 of the Communication officers. I am aware that Droids can fill thier role but I am heavily find them useless.

There Dum, annoying, and useless in any situation even Janitor duty. Which is one of many reason behind the creation of the 12th Guards Legion. I was then called by 1 of my Communications Officers, Terra.

Terra: Ma'am.

I walked over to her and she pointed at the screen.

Terra: 1 of our Probes was intercepted.

Nava: Seem so.

I looked at the screen. However a sinister smile came to my mouth.

Nava: Get the ship ready to jump.

Terra: Yes Ma'am. 12th Fleet pre-

Nava: No... Just get my Cruiser Ready.

Terra: Ma'am?

Nava: Form the looks of it, she is th Jedi of the Base. Which means with her dead, the Clones have no leader. And no leader-

???: They will be disorganizedn a Saluaghter Practically.

Nava: Exactly Ashely, you got the fleet until I get back.

Ashely: Aw~... I want to be there to Massacure these Republic Dogs.

Nava: I know but later, I'll take my Compament of droids and... 8th Regiment.

Ashely: Yes Ma'am *leaves the Brigde*

Terra: What about the Probe?

Nava: Blow it.

(Y/n) Pov

After the Explosion happen, I got on my speeder and sped for the Site. While doing so I got on my comlink and called the others.

(Y/n): X2, ANYA!

X2 (coms): I THINK THAT WAS THE GENERAL! WE LOST COMMUNICATION WITH HER. SHE FOUND 1 OF THE PROBE DROIDS AND PURSED IT. SINCE THEN WE LOST CONTACT WITH HER!

(Y/n): Meet me at the Explosion.

Anya (coms): Departing now.

X2 (coms): See you in a few.

As I speed to the site, my heart race.

(Y/n) thoughts: Please... PLEASE!!! NOT HER, NOT HER, NOT MY SISTER!!!

As I race through the Yellow Desert, the Promise Ani, Samantha and I made echoed in my head.

Samantha: We are family, and like Family we will watch each other back.

It was the promise we made 8 years ago as they were only family I know. I near the explosion and my worest fear was realized. Black scorch marks covers a small crater with a ruined Speeder Bike is smoking on the ground.

I look around trying to find the Remnants of my Master/sister. I began to panick as I couldn't find her until I felt her calling me. I quickly run in the direction she was calling me form and found her.

What I saw left me silent and sick. There layed my Master Body, or rather half of it. Form her waist down her legs were gone and you can see her insides. Her cloths cut, burn marks everywhere, and I could feel her barely cling to life.

Samantha: (Y/- n).

I quickly snap out my trance and ran to her side. I brought her into my lap trying my best to hold back tears.

(Y/n): Don't worry, master, I'm here. We can get you back base and-

Samantha: N-no.

(Y/n): Wha-

Samantha: I- it's too l- late.

She slowly lifts her hand to my check.

(Vision)

I found myself in a Dark Place, emptiness and darkness. I then see a Older version of myself.

Future (Y/n): They may look the same... but they are so much more.

Present (Y/n): What do you me-

I get cut off by multiple voices yell at me.

???: HEY DEAR

(Vision ends)

I was snapped out of it as my tears came down my face. She noticed this and wiped them away as a smile comes to her face.

Samantha: Pro-t-tec-t T-h-em...

Her bodies goes limp as her hand that was on my cheek, falls. I couldn't hold back my tears as I let it fall form eyes.

???: GENERAL! COMMAND-

I turn to the voice and there stood Anya. She see me and the Samantha's body, she slowlys walks to us before falling on her knees.

Anya: I... *crys* I...

(Y/n): It's *sniffs*... It's alright....

I got up and walk back to my speeder. I then hear a 2nd Speeder noise coming my way. I looked up and saw X2 just stop not to far form me. She got off her speeder and looked like she was about to ask.

However, she didn't say anything but I can tell form her face of she is saying. I just shook my head as to tell her what happened. I looked back my speeder pondering of what to do next before I crunch up my hand.

(Y/n): Get her body ready to move, We'll bring her back to base.

3rd Pov

As tbe Trio were preparing to bring the General's Body back to base, the 3 remaining probes snuck up on them. The 3 decide to stowaway underneath the Speeders seat.

(Y/n) Pov

As the ride back to base began, all was silent except the wind. I was between X2 and Anya as the trip back was moving along.

X2 (coms): Sir... I'm sorry... she informed me she found 1 of the Probes and I was going to join her, but she told me to continue my Patrol. I shouldn't had listen to her-

(Y/n): Don't blame yourself X2. Even if you did disobey her, you probably... wouldn't be with us.

X2 (coms): But Sir-

(Y/n): Drop it. As much as I hate to say it, this is what War is, some of us die and some of us live.

Anya (coms): And I guess we are the ones to die?

(Y/n):... No. If someone is to die it will be me, it's a Jedi Duty to put thier life before others.

Anya (coms): Yet we are breed and grown in a Lab, doesn't that makes our lives disposable? I mean some of the other Jedi think we are disposable.

(Y/n):... No. Even if your breed in a Lab and ment to be the same, your not. Each of you have your own personality, likes and dislikes, and well... each of you give off a different presence through the Force.

X2 (coms): Oh really? What are we like?

(Y/n): Well... Anya is giving the Presence of a... Older Sister, wanting to protect her Sisters... and brother. Yet your also the one that will do anything to finish Mission with the Minimum of Casualties.

Anya (coms): True That. What about the Others?

(Y/n): Dimitra is the "Tough Girl"... cause she is the one that is willing to put herself in danger for her Troopers. Don't start spreading this question to the others please, I don't want them to kill me.

Anya (coms): *laughs* No Promise.

I whip around looking at Anya with a look of "you better not".

Anya (coms): Fine I won't.

X2 (Coms): What about X1 and I? I mean we spent most of the day with each other.

(Y/n): Well... both of you are the ones willing to help all the new gu, er- Troopers.

X2 (coms): You don't have to call us Troopers, call us Girls.

(Y/n): Let me guess you got form Samantha didn't you?

X2 (coms): Well... she calls us that and since your her Former Student.

(Y/n): Alright, alright, I get it. Any request she made is still fine with me.

Anya (Coms): Sir... you do know that with the General Dead...

(Y/n): I know, I'm next in the Chain... Anya I need you to help me out once in a while, note my Plans may be "Optimistic" cause I never had-

Anya (Coms): I get it, Sir. The Others and I will be able to help you out.

(Y/n): Thank you.

X1 Pov

I haven't heard back form the patrol that went out. I was wondering where were they until I got my answer.

FCT: Sir, I'm picking something up on the Senors Sensors.

X1: What is it, Charlotte?


Charlotte: 3 Targets coming in fast.

X1: Luna, figure they are.

Luna: Already Done, Sir. It's the Recon Team, Sir.

I nod as I pushed a button on a Console.

(Y/n) (coms): X1, this is Commander Rose, we are coming in.

X1: We read you Sir. *notices only 3 marks* Sir, where is the General?

(Y/n) (coms): *sighs* Dead... I'm assuming command for the time being.

X1: Oh... What's your orders than, Sir?

(Y/n) (coms): Inform Fleet Com about our situation, have 4 other patrols ready to move out. There are still 3 other probe droids out there and expect an Attack to be coming soon. I'll give my briefing on what they are to do in the Command Center.

Everyone that was with me in the Command Center was surprise.

Luna: An Attack?

X1: Sir, Are you sure?

(Y/n) (coms): I'm sure of it. Aren't Probe Droids scouts for a large force?

Anya (coms): Sir, you forgot to mention they are Separatists Probe Droids?

(Y/n) (Coms): Oh yeah... forgot that detail, thanks Anya.

I nodded when Anya said "Separatists Probe Droids".

X1: Roger that Sir.

Nava Pov

As the last of the C-9979 Dropship was loaded with MMT and AAT. The MMT load with droids and AAT filled with The girls maning them. Along with them, Modified HMP Gunship, Rogue Class Starfighters, and C-9979 that have Pilots and hyperdrives.

???: Ma'am, do you think your underestimating the Republic Forces?

I turn to see Akira, Captain of the of the Ship, Thorn.

Akira: I mean-

Nava: Go ahead.

Akira: We only have half our Complament of Vulture Droids in exchange for 10 more C-9979s. Plus what if the Republic Fleet responds? It is only us that are going forward.

Nava: Which is why we are going catch them surprise.

Akira: How Ma'am?

Nava: We are going to exit Hyperspace early in order to prevent them form noticing our Arrival.

Akira: Alright but on the ground-

Nava: I know we are out number but note, we also have the backing 1.5 Million Droids.

Akira: I know but are we just going to throw the Droids lives away?

Nava: Akira, these droids are a Credit a Million. Plus thier lives I can care less about.

Akira: But wouldn't the higher up be angry at you for wasting thier Money on more droids?

I looked at her with an unamused look.

Nava: Look... if it makes you feel better, if I had a Choice to save 1 of you girls vs 1.5 Million Droids? I save you. A Veteran Soldiers is worth more than a Droid.

Akira:... Understood Ma'am.

Nava: Get the Ship underway, lets go kill these Dogs and show those Cheapskates that Organics are better than these Machines.

3rd Pov

A lone Providence Class, Thorn, is seen breaking formation of a fleet. It stop at a point waiting before the engines glow brighter as the ship enters hyperspace. Unknown to either side, this will be there first encounter and certainly not thier last.

Zara Pov

We got back form our Reconnaissance Mission Commander (Y/n) made us go on. He wanted us to tag possible landing zones for Separatist ship and made us set-up "Net" around the base. He wanted us to set up a Senor field to give us an Early Warning of Droid Formations.

We weren't the only ones though as 3 other teams went out to do the same thing. He had Recon Teams sent to hunt down the Probes Droid that were still out there.

Some of us were shock when the 3 of them return back to base with the General missing half her body. Most of us never seen combat but we did hear story form our brothers. It isn't great to hear about the people you trained with die right in front of your eyes.

I got off my bike and began to guide it to the vehicle depo.

FCT-7363: The Commander is going to be alright?

Zara: Don't know Yuki. Usually watching your Best Friend die is something hard to comprehend, even for Jedi.

FCT-1014: You sure about that?

Zara: Skye-

Skye: I mean this could be a ploy by him to make us feel sympathy form him. We feel sympathy for him until, he can do what he ever wants with us.

FCT-1954: What do you mean?

Skye: You know Elena, "sexually" moves on us.

Elena: Oh... He wouldn't do such thing, would he?

Skye: I mean, X1 get's a pass. Yet... He isn't-

Zara: Just stop, he wouldn't do that to us. Beside form what Samantha said "Jedi are Forbidden form getting into Attachments" cause it might lead to the dark side.

We brought our speeders into the Vehicle Bay. We had them parked and head out to the mess hall. We ran into Dimitra and some of her friends, April FCT-4599 and Sylvia, FCT-9099

Dimitra: Hey Zar, how it go?

Zara: Well, we tag couple of potential Landing Zones that are cloest to base but... no Probes. You guys?

Dimitra: Same, no Probes.

We shook our heads in annoyance form these results.

(Sylvia left, April Right)

Sylvia: The Commander say an Attack is coming, neverous?

Zara: Somewhat.

Skye: We should be nervous, our General is dead and our Commander is in-expierance.

We all looked at her with mixed feelings at what Skye just said.

April: Whats your Problem?

Skye: What? I speaking cause it is the truth, X2 said he usually only been on Diplomatic and Relief Mission. Sure he did see fighting but mainly police work.

April: You speak as if you seen action.

Skye: I know I didn't but form what our brothers told us about, most if not all of us are going die.

I saw April looked ready to fight Skye but I quickly got between them.

Zara: Hey, hey, we all are Sisters her, no need to fight.

Dimitra: She right, come on Troopers, lets go get some grub.

The 2 share 1 last glare before they follow Dimitra to the mess hall. I shake my head in disapproval as the ones left behind, Elena, Sylvia, and Yuki notice.

Yuki: Something Wrong Zara?

Zara: Nothing, lets go.

We followed them to the mess as I thought of what just happen.

Zara Thoughts: This isn't what they wanted form us. At each other Throats but to fight side by side for the Republic. But... We never seen the Republic, only Stories and Propaganda, yet they expect us to die for them? We couldn't even see the Republic if it weren't for Jango.

(Flashback)

???: We found another defect.

2???: Wow that is 36,864 Members. Thats an entire Corp of the Army.

3???: What should we do?

2???: We must exterminate them.

???: But that would set us back a couple Thousand, Might I suggest we keep them?

2???: NO! If the Republic were to find out about this unexpected Mutation then our Reputation will be Damage. We should-

Then a Male Voice came over head.

Male: They are no different form my Son, there is a saying in Mandalorian Culture, "Trains your Son to be Strong but Trains your Daughters to be Stronger"

???: But Mr. Fett-

Jango: They may not what you envision but they still are warriors like the others and I have the perfect Trainer for them.

(Flashback Ends)

We were trained by Jango's adopted Sister, Jayla in fighting a War. However, the reason why we are here on Tatooine training is that our training was slower than our brothers. Mainly due the Kaminoans doing experiments on us in such we had days off much to our disappointment.

Yet, it wasn't all that Bad, we became close with Boba, Jango's Son. All of us became like an older Sisters to him as we spent our time together on Kamino. Some, if not all of us, wanted to know what happen to him after they left Kamino cause it never felt the same without him. The Memories we made were great, but all of us miss little our Little Brother.

As we continued to eat our food and chat about this attack that may come. We notice Anya enter the Mess Hall of which she came over to me.

Zara: Something up?

Anya: Yeah. The Commander is having a Funeral for the General

Zara: Seriously? When is it going to take place?

Anya: In a few mins. His droid, "Ren" told me about it.

I then notice the ENTIRE Cafeteria was listening in on our conversation. Thier faces varied form worry, concern, or anger.

Lara: Your Shitting me right? Why would we attend the funeral of an Jedi when there was no Funeral for our brothers?

She was followed by others agreeing with her and those trying to counteract them. I looked back at Anya and saw a Massive Tick markon her head.

Anya: ENOUGH!!!

This gets everyone quiet. I know why she was made the Leader of us. Calm and Caring but when shit hits the Fan, she will bring her authority Side out.

Anya: THIS ISN'T UP FOR DEBATE! WE LOST SOMEONE CLOSE TO US, EVEN IF SHE WASN'T A CLONE LIKE US, WE BEST BE HONORING HER DEATH.

She calms down before making her way for the exit.

Anya: If you want to join the go to the East Gate.

She walks leaving us in the Mess hall.

(Y/n) Pov

I looked at the Torch in my hand as I know what must be done. I know this can be done at the Jedi Temple but it is a time of War. However, I feel it is the only way I can Honor her death.

I should had told the Girls this as it represents what happens to thier Brothers. However, with the hatred some have against Jedi, I doubt they'll see this as "Fancier" Funeral for the Jedi.

I walked towards the makeshift mound that took a while to build. Had to gather various plants and stuff to properly burn. As I was about place the torch with the mound I heard footsteps behind me. I turn around to see Anya walk up to me.

(Y/n): Anya? What are you doing here?

Anya: Paying my respects to General Samantha.

(Y/n): Oh. Who told you?

Anya: Your Droid.

(Y/n): *sigh* Ren loves snitching on me.

Anya: What is this?

(Y/n): I'm cremating her body.

Anya: Why? I heard that our brothers recieve the same treatment.

(Y/n): I know but do you know the meaning behind it?

She just shooks her head.

(Y/n): Well... they are becoming 1 with the Force, more specifically the Cosmic Force. You know how I said each of you may look the same but your different. Each of you have your own Personalities, likes and dislikes.

Anya: Still doesn't explain why your burning her body?

(Y/n): I'm burning her body cause she is going the Force, acting as a Silent eye watching over us. The same can be said about your brothers, even if you want to deny it, they are watching you.

???: So your saying they are with us?

We turned around to see the rest of Legion joining us. I spoted the one ask as Lara to which she had her arms cross. Her expression on her face though didn't look earlier today's hate.

(Y/n): Yes... Always with you, just like Samantha... lossing your Brothers and my sister aren't that different.

I sudden look down at my feet realizing what I said.

Aprils: I thought Jedi weren't allowed to have attachments?

(Y/n): I know but... it is in our Nature, all of us. Wiether that be the brothers you grew side by side with or a Master, that you see more as an Older Sister for many years. It is hard to say goodbye to them, but all things, no matter how good they are, must come to an end. *Arms forms a Fist* If you have anything bad to say... then leave, I'm saying goodbye to my sister, as you would to your brothers.

Anya: *puts hand on my Shoulder* It's alright, Sir. We understand.

I nod before turning towards the Make Shift Grave.

Lara: You... wouldn't mind... if we join you.

(Y/n): You can.

The girls nod and formed a Circle around the grave. I then start walking towards the grave and placed the Torch. As I stepped back and joined them I watch as the fire engulfs her. I lower my head in respect as did the girls. I then begin sing a Verse of a Song I once heard form her.

(Play 2:34 to 3:22)

When it feel's like there's nothing,
Worth Living For,
Everything is broken,
The Lights not there Anymore;
And the story,
Takes an unexpected turn,
A Friend is suddenly Gone,
We can Cry our Lives away,
But if they'd were here they say,
Go forward you must keep moving on

3rd Pov

It was followed by Silience as the only thing heard was the Fire. In that very moment in the Desert of Tatooine, thier future has been set for them.

As the 69th Mourns the lost of a Friend, outside the range of the Republic Scanners a Ship exits Hyperspace. A lone Providence with Nava, sitting in her chair looking out at the Vacum of space.

Nava: How long will it take for us to arrive?

Akira: In Half a Rotation.

Nava: Good. Make ready to land our Troops, time to slaughter some Republic Dogs.
