Chapter 22: Battle of Mercia (Arc 1)
Within the deep forest of Mercia, we see a Clone jungle troopers marching through the forest. We see them along with a few AT-RT up ahead as scouts, four AT-TE's in the middle with the Clone gunners looking around for any ambush, two AT-OT at the back and finally we see the Republic HAVE A6 Juggernaut tank as their main mobile base as we cut inside the Juggernaut tank to see Lieutenant Ink within the Juggernaut command centre as he open a hologram call to Zack as a hologram of Zack and Shark appear as Ink saluted to them and tell them.
Ink: General, commander, we're making our way through the forest as we speak. Everything is going well so far.
Zack: (hologram) Excellent new Lieutenant Ink. Remember your mission, you need to join up with another group of freedom fighters that request aid.
Shark: (hologram) Princess Sally has told us about this group and how they have been fighting against the Separatist for sometime. If we give them some Republic back up, they will be glad for that.
Ink: Understood sirs, we'll get there as soon as possible.
Zack: (hologram) Understood Lieutenant. I have Noble Squad to come by and assist once you found their base. May the force be with you.
The transmission ends as Ink make his way to the driver seats and ask the two Clone Juggernaut drivers.
Ink: Any trouble?
Clone Juggernaut driver: No trouble sir, we'll all Green.
Ink: Good. Let's just get there in one piece.
They agree as they kept on moving through the forest. A few Clone jungle troopers who were on the ground look around for any Separatist forces when they see something up ahead.
It looked like a cloaked mobian who is on both knees as they stopped and stare at him and seeing he's not moving.
Clone jungle trooper: Sir there is a citizen in the middle of the road. Looks like he's hurt.
Ink: (radio) See if he's alright.
Clone jungle trooper: Yes sir.
The two Clone jungle troopers approaches the Mobian as they get close to him and one Clone jungle troopers gets close enough that he shake on his shoulder.
Clone jungle trooper: You alright? Are you alone?
He then look up at them and his eyes looks like he was mind controlled. But then he immediately pulled out a blaster pistol and shot the Clone Jungle trooper as one Clone on the AT-RT sees this and called out.
Clone AT-RT driver: Sir its a ambush!
Immediately he get shot follow by a huge explosions that hit the Juggernaut and a few walkers. Then a few cloaked Mobians came out amd open fire at them along with Separatist battle droids as they came out of the bushes and trees and open fire at them.
The Clone return fire with a few get shot while Ink opens the hatch above the Juggernaut as he stood on top of the Juggernaut and called out to his men inside.
Ink: Get on the turrets and defend our walkers!
They node while Ink fires his DC-15S blaster rifle at the Separatist attackers while he dodges a few bolts. He then leap down and lands onto the ground while he fire more bolts while he drag the injured clones to safety.
He drag them behind the wheels of the Juggernaut and gets cover as bolts fly by him and then he return fire. The Separatist forces surrounded them on both sides as the Clones were standing their ground. One od the cloaked mobian aimed a rocket at one of the AT-TE and fire and the rocket hit the walkers and it goes down.
Ink: Damn it! Someone cover those walkers!
Clone jungle trooper: Sir were getting out numbered, we need to fall back!
Ink: We're not falling back! We need a mission to complete!
He peak out only for to be tackled by the cloaked Mobian as he was thrown onto thr ground. The cloaked Mobian rasies his blade to stab him but he move his head and the blade stabbed on the ground next to him as Ink headbutted the Mobian and kicked him off.
The cloaked Mobian land hard onto the ground as Ink gets up and immediately stun the cloaked Mobian. Helets outba sigh and looks over to see Separatist battle droids marching towards him. He ready himself but then a arrow came by and lands in front of the battle droids as they look down and see it.
Battle droid: That can't be good.
Immediately it goes off, blowing up the battle droids while we see a Mobian sparrow on a tree branch as he called out.
???: It seem our fellow nee allies need aid! Mercia Freedom fighters, assist our new allies!
We see a Clone jungle troopee get knocked back by a Supee battle droid as it about to blast them when a sword slash the super battle droids arm off as the Super battle droid turn and immediately get stabbed by a Quail Mobian as he sing while the Supee battle droids fell.
??? 2: (singing) Fear not our friends, we have come to help, together we shall, defeated out foes!
Battle droids 1: Where the heck did they come from!?
Battle droid 2: And why is that one sin- Wait what the?!
Then the second battle droids was lifted and immediately break into two by a Mobian rat as he turn to the other battle droid and growled, costing the battle droid to run away while let out a chuckle.
??? 3: (smirk) Tch, stupid bots.
A few battle droids tr to fall back only to be blocked a Deer Mobian which they immediately aim their blasters at him which he tells them.
??? 4: I suggest you all stand down. For though I am a man of peace.
Battle droid 4: Well this is gonna be easier to take you down.
??? 4: We, I'm afraid my conpatriots are less restrained.
Battle droid 4: Wait what?
Immediately a Rabbit Mobian came out of the bushes and immediately took them all out as she kick them and sending them flying with one land in front of Ink as he look over to her as she smirked and look over to Ink.
??? 5: (smirk) Looks like you could use some help.
Soon the Separatist battle droids fall back after the attack and after that most Clone Jungle trooper help out the injured while Ink walked over to the five Mercia Freedom fighters.
Ink: Thanks for the assistance. They give us hell from that ambush.
Bow: (smile) It is our pleasure Lieutenant. The names Bow the Sparrow. We have gotten world our new allies are gonna be here to aid us in this battle.
Ink: That's correct. My name is Lieutenant Ink. I'm here to aid your Freedom fighters in your battle and taking back the Kingdom of Mercia.
Bow: (smile) That would be very helpful for you Lieutenant. Please, let us company you and take you to our leader.
Ink: Thank you.
(Sometime later)
They arrived at the Mercia Freedom fighters bass which I'd called Hideaway which contains treehouses above them with lifts and staircase to take them up to the Mercia Freedom fighters civilian. Bow and Ink enter the large tree house where we see what looked like Sonic but with a hood over his head while having a bow on his back as he turn to see Bow and Ink.
Rob: Ah, i see you have brought out new allie Bow. Greetings, my name is Rob o' The Hedge, leader or the Mercia Freedom fighter.
Ink: (saluted) Lieutenant Ink, ready to aid you in battle.
Rob: (smile) I'm pleased to hear that. You know I was surprised when I heard of Clone troopers fighting along side Princess Sally and hee Freedom fighters.
Ink: Well we're the best troopers of the Grand Army of the Republic.
Rob: Indeed. However, enough talk, you must be wondering our objective.
Ink: I might take a guess and its coning about taking back your Kingdom.
Rob: You are correct. Come, let us show you.
They show Ink a map of the Kingdom and red circular around the Kingdom as Rob points at them and tells Ink.
Rob: Our enemies have blocked off our kingdom by building a huge wall that surrounded the whole kingdom. Blocking us from every breaking into the Kingdom and taking back out Kingdom.
Bow: Not only that but our poor friends are trapped within the Kingdom and be interrogated by our greatest enemy, Lord Mordred Hood.
Ink: What's the information about this commander?
Bow: He sides with Dr Robotnik along side many others who is apart of the Dark Legion. A group of followers who served as Dr Robotnik high commanders of his empire. Hoods is one of them.
Rob: What makes him dangerous is his ability to brainwash anyone to his own will. He has brainwashed others to work along side him as troops for his army.
Ink: Those cloak Mobian that attacked us, they were brainwashed as well correct?
Bow: Indeed. They are victims to Hoods control and not truly their fault.
Ink: Well it's a good thing I stunned one of them.
Rob: Still our citizens are captured and brave at this point. Therefore, we must find a way to break through these walls and help our citizens.
Ink: And the Republic will help you. In fact as Squad of Clone commando are on its way here to aid us. They are the best of the best.
Rob: (smile) How exciting. I can not need wait to see them.
Bow: We'll we wait, perhaps we show you around and get to know Hideaway more.
Ink: Sure thing.
(Meanwhile)
At the Kingdom of Mercia, we see Separatist forces patrolling the streets and the gate as we cut inside the castle to see Hoods interrogation a Mercia Freedom fighter by brainwashing him.
Hood: You will tell me where Hideaway is and your gonna tell me now.
Mercia Freedom fighter: It's.....Its......N-No!
Hood: The Location of Hideaway, Now.
Mercia Freedom fighter: In......In....Deerwood....forest.
Hood: (angry) This whole blasted country is covered in the forest!
Tactical Droid: Commander Hood.
Then the Tactical droid came down the steps while Hood reply with annoying tone.
Hood: What is it now? Can't you see i am busy.
Tactical droid: Sir, I regret to inform you that Republic reinforcements as made contact with the Mercia Freedom fighters.
Hood: (angry) What?!
Tactical droid: Our ambush squad has failed to eliminate the Republic forces and now the Mercia Freedom fighters has extra aid with the Republic reinforcements.
Hood: (growl) This is just great. Soon they will think of a plan to attack my kingdom and ruin everything!
Hood leaves the dungeon along with his Tactical droid as the two walk through the castles hallways as the Tactical droid ask Hood.
Tactical Droid: Shall I request reinforcements from Dr Robotnik to double our forces?
Hood: No! We will sort things out ourselves. We must not allow the Republic forces to punch through.
They soon enter the throne room and immediately they were met by a hologram of Dooku as he turns to them.
Dooku: (hologram) Ah, Lord Hood. I was waiting for you.
Hood: Count Dooku, forgive me, I was busy with some things.
Dooku: (hologram) I can see that. I am currently at Robotropolis, over seeing the project. I have noticed you have some Republic trouble.
Hood: The Mercia Freedom fighters has Republic back up and I have a feeling they are planning to attack my Kingdom at this moment.
Dooku: (hologram) I see. Luckily for you, I've sent someone to aid you on this battle.
Hood: Who?
Then a large, Armor and hulking beast appear out of the darkness which shocks Hood as walk up ans stood next to the hologram Dooku as he introduce him to Hood.
Dooku: (hologram) His name is Durge, he is a contract Bounty hunter who is very skilled, Immortal, immune to any bolts, stabs or explosions and shown to have a deep hatred towards Mandalorian which the Clones have DNA's from a Mandalorian Bounty hunter. He will aid you on taking out the Republic forces and your Mercia Freedom fighters.
Hood: (smirk) Thank you Count Dooku.
The transmission ends as Hood turns to Durge and tells him.
Hood: (smirk) I'll be looking forward to see you in action Bounty hunter. Take most of my forces and find Hideaway!
Durge comply and heads off to do his job. We see him exiting out of the kingdom of his speed along with a company of IG-88 assassin droids ams a fee commando droids as they ready up theie speeders and Durge and the others head off to find Hideaway and kill some Clones and Mercia Freedom fighters.
