Introduction to Close Combat Operations Module 1B Service Knowledge: The calm before a storm

"Damn it I'm bored..." Hellra muttered as she strecthed.
"Well you'll be quite well soon, just take your time to recover" TK commented.
"What's been happening Sarge?" Hellra asked.
"Well, Shakey's out of the squad and into the reserves, for now at least" TK informed.
"Wha? What happened?" Hellra curiously asked.
"Somekind of problem in her homeland, I don't really know myself" TK answered.

TK looked at his watch and realised that the squad was late. "Where the hell are they..." TK whispered to himself. "What was that Sarge?" Hellra asked. "Err, nothing... Beautiful day today isn't it?" TK swiftly changed the subject. "Well it'll help if I can see" Hellra sarcastically replied.

TK stood up and walked over to the window. He gazed at the sight of an oncoming LAAT. "What the hell..." TK muttered. The LAAT was only slightly recognisable from this distance, it was getting larger at an alarming rate. "Oh crap, it must be them..." TK lazily grumbled. "Sunray! This is Moonbeam over!" Yillis spoke through his wristcom. "Moonbeam, Sunray, go ahead over" TK replied. "Sunray, Moonbeam... Errr, how the hell do you stop a LAAT? over" Yillis sheepishly asked. "WHAT THE HELL!? WHY THE HELL! ISN'T FELTS PILOTING THE AIRCRAFT!?" TK furiously demanded an answer. "Oh heh, hehe, I replaced his energy tablets with sleeping pills" Yillis replied. "What's happening Sarge?" Hellra asked. "Oh nothing, get some rest!" TK ordered. "Sarge! I still need to know how to stop this thing!" Yillis reminded. "Arrr! Shut down all powers and attempt to glide it to land" TK informed.

Suddenly a loud crash was heard, TK looked outside and saw a LAAT parked in the fountain. "Sunray this is Moonbeam, everything's fine, over" Yillis informed. "Moonbeam, Sunray, everything better be fine or else it'll be coming out of your bank account! No get your arse over here over" TK ordered.

Within minutes, the squad was assembled infront of Hellra's hospital room. TK looked at them and sighed, "...I said DUTY UNIFORM! Not CEREMONIAL UNIFORM! See what I'm wearing? No decorations!" TK pointed out. "Can you come in now Sarge?" Yillis sarcastically asked. TK grumbled and stepped aside, as the squad went into the room, Hellra greeted them.

"Ohkies guys, to start us off... Hellen you can't see him, but Darr-Rann has been promoted to Lance Corporal" TK informed. "Ooh, congrats Darr!" Hellra congratulated. "That's not all!" Yillis butted in. "I've decided to also promote you to the rank of Lance Corporal, award you with the Emperor's Shield 2nd Class and give you the callsign of Blue Technical" TK informed.

Yillis then brought out the champagne, "Here's to surviving freak droid crazy-ass stuff".

"I'll drink to that," TK said as he walked over, took a glass, and chugged it down, then held out the glass again, "Come on"

As Yillis poured everyone drinks, TK, being drunk already, stumbled over to Hellra's bed. "Hellra, I have something to tell you,"

Hellra tried to look where TK's voice was coming from, and said, "Umm, sure TK, what is it?"

TK leaned in close to Hellra's ear and whispered, "You...I think you...Your Blue Technical!"

Hellra looked dumbfounded, "Yes that's right TK, and maybe you should sit down?"

"Nah!, I'm perfectly fi-" TK said as he passed out and fell onto the floor. Yillis came over from where he was standing and said, "Well, it seems our Squad Leader, has passed out."

Darr-Rann then comes over to where Yillis is standing and says, "I hope no one gets alcohol poisoning, because I'm WAY TO DRUNK TO BE A MEDIC. WOOOOOOO!!"

Hellra glanced confused around her.
"So much for our Sarge being responsible" mumbled Jennabelle as she gazed at the passed out Sergeant. Knight was trying to slap him awake. Yillis, Vint and Trooper512 led Darr-Rann out of the room. He was only giggling, which was slightly out of his character. A few mintues passed where only Knightwind's futile attempt to wake TK was filled. Suddenly a splash was heard and a long string of words.
"What was that?" asked Hellra.
Jennabelle gazed out of the window.
"Seems they threw Darr in a fountain"...another few mintes passed.
"Guys, isn't TK getting his new hand today?" asked Hellra trying to make a conversation
"Yeah" answered Jennabelle
"I think in about a hour, ah Damn"
"Whats wrong KW?" asked Jennabelle
"NO, TK's commanding officer asked me to send TK to him after the operation, and he is well drunk and I don't this is going to make a good impression, and he is still passed out" said Knighwind.
Hellra smirked; she pushed the cover off from her and got up from the bed.
"Hellra get back in bed!" scolded Jennabelle
"I am just blind nothing to worry about," said Hellra back carelessly.
She walked over to the opposite side of the room where a vase stood with flowers and water. She didn't know who sent it so she didn't worry.  She felt with her hands around the object and gripped it firmly.
"KW, where is Tk's face?"
Knightwind and Jennabelle gaped at Hellra. She wasn't really going to do what they were thinking she was going to do.
"Here" answered Knightwind curious to see TK's reaction. He guided the vase above Tk's face.
Hellra tipped the vase with the flowers inside. The water splashed on his face dripping on the carper underneath him. He groaned. Hellra sighed frustrated, and dropped vase. The sound of the glass breaking jolted TK awake, thinking they were still in Killhouse. He had his pistol in his hand. He glanced around confused. Knighwtind and Jennabelle were snickering. Hellra was sitting with a smug smile on her face on her bed. TK's face was wet with flowers sticking on it.
"What is going on!" the four Lancers looked at the door. A big nurse was standing with her hands n her hip. An immediate fear was shared through them for the nurse. She had a belt with different size of needles, and the fact that she was glaring didn't improve her look.
"My sergeant was admiring the flowers when he slipped. He still isn't used to being one handed so he is unbalanced" lied Hellra with an innocent face.
The nurse's eyebrow twitched.
"You are Sergeant TK?" she asked
"Yes" answered TK still sitting on the floor with a wet-flower covered face and soaked clothes. Flowers were sprayed around him fashionably

"You were suppose to report for an operation over an twenty minutes ago!" scolded the nurse; Knightwind was suddenly very interested with the glass that was on the carpet. She took long strides towards him. Pulling out a protesting TK there was silence in the room again.

"Guys, get in the squad meeting room tomorow at 1500 hours and remember to get Hellra there also, since she can't see" called TK's voice a last time out before he was led away.

    Darr-Rann followed them down to the operations room, his 'Swim' and a few pills of some medication to clear his head having sobered him up. He held his head as he felt the sharp pains of a headache. "Man," thought to himself. "I'm never going to drink again." They entered  the room, a surgery table in its center. The doctor looked at them enter. "Who are you?" He inquired to Darr-Rann. "I'm Lance Corporal Darr-Rann, from his squad. I'm also a Medical Student." The surgeon laughed. "Well, if your going to observe, get into a Surgical Suit. TK laughed "Are you sure you can't just do this later..." He suddenly lost consciousness as the medic administered a drug to knock him out. When They were all ready, the surgeon opened up a container on the floor and removed the robotic hand from it, setting it on the table. "Lets get started!"

    "Pass me the cutter." The surgeon said over his shoulder to Darr-Rann. The trooper responded quickly, exited to be able to see a surgery at such close range. The doctor went to work, cutting down TK's wrist, creating a straight wound to work on, holding his hand up and putting on the metallic cap cover the wound. He quickly went to work, using cameras on tiny wired that he guided into the parts of his arm the corresponded with his brain, to give him control of the hand. He then went to work attaching the cap Permanently to the stub. "Well, there goes the hard part." He noted as he took the rest of the hand pushed the wires of it through small holes in the cap, attaching them too. He then put on the hand, and attached it in. "Now, lets get to work adjusting his body to the new hand..."

    TK woke up some time later. Darr-Rann walked over to him, putting down the Datapad were he was taking notes of the surgery. "So, how does the hand feel?" TK looked down at the new hand, freshly attached. He moved the fingers around, making a fist then opening it again. "Eerily like the old one." He responded. He turned to face the soldier. "What time is it?" Darr-Rann looked at the time displayed on his wrist-com. "Three hours to the meeting." TK's eyes widened. "Oh shi..." He got up and got his stuff together. "We have to go, or we're gonna be late!" TK and Darr-Rann quickly left.

    They started down the hall. Plants and paintings were placed along the walls to lighten the mood, though it didnt work all to well. After a few minutes they met up with Yillis and Vint.
    "Wheres Trooper and Darr-rann?" asked TK.

    "Darr-rann's coming, Trooper is with him," Yillis said. "Trooper is already in the meeting room." They turned the corner. Dane Felts was up ahead.

    "Hey Dane! C'mer!" yelled TK, he was a little confused from the surgery and the "small" drink he had. Dane looked back and walked toward us. He looked at TK's new hand.

    "How's the hand working for ya'? My uncle had to get one of those, but it didnt look so good. Long story."

    "It's..............." TK started.

    "It's fine," Yillis finished for him. "He's just had a bad mix of no sleep, lots to drink, and a new hand. But he should be ok telling us our next mission."

    Dane nodded and laughed to himself. Suddenly Hellra hit the wall making a loud "thump". 

    "Yillis! You did that on purpose! Get her hand and make sure she doesnt collide with any other walls." Yillis nodded and took Hellra's hand.
   
    "You ok Hellra?" asked Vint.

    "Yeah....i'll get Yillis back some how..."
--soon in the meeting--
    The room in which the meeting took place was small with a long table running through it. A holoprojector lay by TK's seat. Everyone sat down.

"What's the holoprojector for Sarge?" asked Dane curiously; he ignored the curious glances the rest of the squad except Hellra threw at him.
"Nothing, it was originally from my commander, but I already went to him." Replied TL, he took his seat at the head of thelong narrow table.  Hellra sat on his left while Yillis was on his way to sit on his right.

TK noticed the mischievous smug that appeared on Hellra's face. Just as Yillis was about to sit, Hellra kicked his chair away from him causing him to land flat out on the ground.
"Just pay back Yill" said Hellra, Yillis grumbled something as he stood up; when he took his seat he gripped the chair firmly in his hand.
"Okay, Hell, Yill, playtime is over" TK lifted his hand as Yillis and Hellra was about to protest.
Hellra folded her arms in anger at being referred to as a child while Yillis continued grumbling. The rest if the squad was snickering at them. Everything turned serious as TK stood up.
"Squad this is our newest addition to the squad, Sergeant Dane Felts, the squad's LAAT and shuttle pilot" TK gestured to Dane to stand up.
"You were the one I drugged?" blurted out Yillis surprised.
Dane smirked,
"Yes, watch your back, Hellra and I as a team may be deadly" Dane laughed as Hellra who was still glaring arms folded smirked at Yillis, Yillis glared at her.
"Okay, like I said, time for business" said TK raising his voice slightly, the squad silenced and looked at him.

"My commanding officer gave us a few days off to recuperate, and to get our stress levels down. He noticed some of you guys still lift your pistol at a sudden noises"
Which was the truth, the squad was still thinking a droid will attack them any moment and always carried their pistols with them.

"So what do we do in the few days of?" asked Hellra
"Well, I was thinking of some light training, you know just aiming and shooting and to get to know each other better," ordered TK
Which means, we are going to meet here for two hours a day and just spend some quality time squad bonding together"

"TWO HOURS!" blurted out Hellra, "I can't even stand TK for 10 minutes!"

The squad all looked around at each other realizing that none of them could stand TK for more than 10 minutes.

Yillis started to speak, "She's right TK. I don't know anyone that can stand you for 10 minutes actually."

"Shut it, all of you, or I'll have you thrown out of Lancer," TK glared around the room at his squad, "That's more like it. Anyways this here is what the 2 hours is for, we need to get to know each other, and how we act."

Darr-Rann spoke up, "Hey, I've got this holochess board, you mind if I bring that in?"

"Sure thing Darr." TK replied, "Anyone else got anything to say or do or anything? Nope? Ok, and before I forgot, I'll be cooking our lunch during this two hour bonding, and if I hear one peep of anyone not liking my food, they will soon find themselves back in Drill, understood? Good."

Yillis leaned over to vint, "I don't know what's worse, the droids or TK's cooking."

TK's cooking wasn't as bad as they thought it would be, though Yillis fell asleep with his head in his bowl. All the Lancers looked at Yillis curiously until they saw Hellra and Dane smirking smugly.
About three days passed where the Squad got to know each other. Long boring afternoons dragged by which they had nothing to do. They weren't allowed to train, only to socialize with each other. It was a sad departure when Dane suddenly had to go. Why he went was a mystery only TK knew.
TK requested another trooper for his squad; he wanted the new trooper to settle in as soon as possible.

TK sighed; he sat tapping his foot on the floor waiting impatiently for his ASL and EL. He heard them before they even entered. Bickering as usual.
"You started it, you made me wa---"
"Well, it was only a jo---"
"I could have be-"
"You can handle --"
"I am a girl, you--"
"I thought you hate being treate"

TK grumbled. A knock broke the silence in his solitary office. Shortly it opened with a soft hiss. Hellra and Yillis came in and plopped them selves on the chairs to continue bickering. Hellra had a small droid leading her, she didn't trust her squad with leading her.
TK blocked the sound out, and honed his thoughts to the new trooper that was coming in today. He picked up the datapad&His scanned swiftly over the small word that lettered its screen,
Hellra and Yillis silenced as Tk gave them the datapad, a small tug war erupted between them which Yillis won. Yillis glanced over it and then handed it to Hellra.
"What about him Sarge?" asked Yillis.
"New trooper, I want you to get him from the Nightstalker Squad, I doubt he knows where out barracks are" TK stroke his left hand unconsciously. A habit he picked up.
"Of course Sarge, bu why don't you just let Yill go?" asked Hellra,
"Well, I was suppose to get the guy, but I am to busy as you can see" TK motioned towards the paperwork or rather datapads.
"I have to sent a full detailed account of what happened in Killhouse, why Shakey left and Dane went, so you two should go"
"You didn't have to call us, you could have just sent us a message" said Yillis. He stretched back lazily.
"Yes I know that, but I wanted to talk about your bickering, for heaven sake's stop it!" cried TK out. Hellra and Yillis looked at him trying to suppress their laughter.
"Out, just get out and find that trooper!" said Tk irritated. Yillis rushed out while Hellra tried to rush out.

Splinter-Seal was impatiently in the north corridor like he was instructed to. He was really excited in meeting his new squad. Splinter's ears picked up the sound of footsteps coming down the hall. He jumped to up from his sitting position on the floor. He glanced at the two figures. He got really confused; he thought Sergeant TK was collecting him.
"His thoughts turned more confused when he saw that one of them was being by a droid, her eyes were covered by white bandages, and her face was expressionless . The other one had a stern expression on his face&Both walking directly towards him&

    Yillis and Hellra walked down the hallway to greet Splinter.
"Welcome to Lancer Squad." He said, shaking his hand. "Humanoid. Male. One. Point. Three. Four. Meters..." Hellra gave it a kick to shut it up. "Yah, I know." Splinter looked from her to the droid, not knowing what to say. Hellra broke the silence. "Yes, he helps me see, at least untill these bandages are off." Splinter inquired further. "Um, how did that happen?" Hellra sighed. "My glasses shattered into my eyes during our last meeting. Our leader also lost a hand." Splinter started to become nervous, causing Yillis to laugh. "Don't worry about it, common, time to meet the squad." They lead him to the room were the squad was hanging out. After they gave quick introductions, TK rubbed his eyes (starteling himself when his metal hand made contact with his face) and looked around to them all. "Well, its 1:00am so we better get to bed. Everyone started to rush out. "Wait a minute! I want everyone back here at 8pm tommarow! Yillis, show Splinter were the bunks are." As they left, TK talked to Hellra and Darr-Rann. "So you guys got training tommorow, so you better get some sleep." He looked down at the droid. "Will that thing get you to the barracks?" Hellra sighed. "Yes, And tell me the bodey temperature and approximate age of every person who gets with thirty feet of me."

    They arrived at 8 (and eight-thirty in Yillis' case) for more "Quality time." TK walked over the the holoprojector. "I have something fun for you today..."

TK let the holoprojector warm up for a few minutes, while addressing the squad, "I think we all got to know each other really good, these past few days, well most of us, Splinter your new that's your excuse, and then there's those two", TK motioned with hand over to Hellra and Yillis were now glaring at TK, "Actually, I'm just not gonna go there."

TK took a long look around the room, every face of the still new squad was looking at him intently. He knew that he was ready to die for any single of one them.

"Ok guys, you're probably wondering why I'm gonna show you on this projector there, what I'm gonna show you on this, might scare you, it might even scar you for life, so I'm just asking you to be prepared."

TK hit a button on the projector and a picture of TK flashed on the screen. Yillis groaned in the back of the room.

"That was me when I first joined the VE," TK hit a button on the projector again, "Ok and this was me when I went to visit the Dark Dragoons base, back when I was an Advisor."

Yillis promptly fell asleep in the back of the room, knowing every single picture that could be on the holoprojector, he'd seen at least once, and probably seen a few of them twice or more.

Hellra grumbled. A hour has passed in which TK just showed pictures upon pictures.
A light snoring to her left indicated that Yillis was asleep.
Splinter sat dumbfounded in his chair looking at the squad. Vint was staring lazily at a window where sunlight poured in. Knightwind was snoring softly in  his chair, on his arms. Tk didn't seem to notice the team's lack of attendance.
Yillis snorted in his sleep. He mumbled something and turned his head to the left.
Hellra smirked and motioned Darr-Rann to come over who was sitting on her other sie. He silently crept to her, not want to interrupt Tk's rather fascinating speech.
"What?" he asked annoyed.
"What is the chance of Yillis answering questions in his sleep?" asked Hellra in a whisper. Darr-rann's face also wore a smirk now.
"Dunno, but let's find out"

The both gazed at Yillis who was mumbling further.
"Yill, are you there?" Asked Darr-Rann cautiously. He glanced quickly at TK to make sure he was stil...preoccupied...

Darr-Rann and Hellra laughed as they questioned Yillis. TK continued to present to Splinter, and the others were also dozing off. "Hey Yillis, what do you think of TK's cooking?" The half asleep ASL muttered an answer. "tastes like crap..." They prodded further. "What did you say?" "I said it tastes like crap!" he muttered louder. TK looked over at him in shock. "What did you just, Lance Corporal?" Yillis, then came awake. Rubbing his eyes, he got up from the seat. "Huh, I didn't say anything..." TK shook his head. "Nobody insults my cooking and gets away with it!" He ran after Yillis, who quickly attempted to make an escape. The two Lance Corporals couldn't help themselves, and broke out into laughter. "Well, you must have put him up to this. Very well, you Can clean up, because we're all leaving now." They sighed and got to work. G7 was happy to assist Hellra in any of her tasks. "Potato. chip., ten. centimeters. to. your. right." Hellra glanced the droid with a swinging swipe. Darr-Rann glanced over at her and laughed. "Well, how would you like it?" She said in frustration. She looked over in His direction. "Hey, It's Yillis' birthday tommarow. How about we get some payback for this. He laughed. "Im listening..."

Yillis ran out the door and down the hallway before he realized that TK wasn't running after him anymore. He looked around to see where he was, and then he recognized that front door of the barracks. He stepped out into the sunshine and took a deep breath in when Darr-Rann came up behind him.

"Nice day eh?" Darr-Rann asked.

"You ever take the time to just drink in the life around you?"

"...what?"

"Never mind...You know, for being a medic, your not very bright."

"Was that an insult?"

Yillis sighed as he went for a stroll in the woods beside the barracks.

Darr-Rann yelled out to Yillis, "Hey, where are you going?"

Yillis yelled back, "Dunno, just going for a walk, collecting myself."

After Yillis was out of sight, Darr called to Hellra who was walking in the hallway near the front door, "Hey Hellra!"

"Yeah?"

"Yillis just went into the woods there, you got any ideas on how to...how shall I put this...surprise him?" Darr started to laugh evilly, but with too much enthusiasm.

    Vint came up behind Hellra and Darr. The sun was shining down. It was nice after the rain they had got the days before.

    "What are you two doing?" Vint asked.
   
    "Just follow me." Darr replied as he ran into the trees. The forest was small but fairly dense. Darr soon slowed down and motioned for them to listen. They could hear Yillis singing. Vint almost burst out laughing, and according to Darr, he had heard worse. Soon they got ahead of Yillis and climbed up a tree. Yillis would come directly under them in a few minutes.

    "What is he singing?" Asked Vint.

    "The Nal Hutta anthem?" Hellra whispered on the verge on laughter.

    "Nah, his voice isnt nice enough to sing that." Darr put in.

    "Whatever it is, it needs to stop."

    Yillis's voice didnt seem to be getting closer.

    "Should we go to him?" Darr questioned.

    "I dont know." Said Hellra.

    ----------------------------------------------


    Yillis sat singing. This was his favorite song; the "Hills Of I'kierath." He thought his rendition of it was quite nice, and pleasant to the ears. But this was just a joke he was singing. He knew that Someone from his squad was trying to play some kind of trick on him. As long as they could hear his voice, they wouldnt bother to keep in sight of him. This left him many choices, many of which sounded good to him.

---Back at Barracks---

TK wondered through the halls searching for something to do. He met up with Dane and asked him, "So, Dane, buddy, pal, friend, what's it take to learn how to fly an LAAT?"

Dane replied, without missing a beat, "Intelligence."

"Funny."

"I know, why ya asking? You want to learn?"

"Yeah I think in case anyone replaces your pills again we need a backup."

"Alright let's go then."

TK and Dane headed out towards the hanger, where the squads vehicles and ships were. They walked up to the LAAT/I and TK jumped in the cockpit.

Dane started to instruct TK on how to fly, "So these are the thrust levers and those control the replusors......"

---20 minutes later---

"......yup, now I think that's all you need, TK."

"Let's get this show on the road then!"

TK started up the LAAT, and proceeded to back it into a wall.

"Whoa, oh well I'll just get Yillis to pay for it."

White-knuckled, Dane replied, "R...r...r...right, just...take her...easy...TK."

TK brought the LAAT up out of the hanger and into the air and started to fly over the forest.

TK started to talk, "This is why I became a cook. You see there is no joy in flying. I wouldn't mind just going and jumping out of this LAAT right now and cooking up some wieners in the wild. Did I ever tell you the story of when I was out back cooking some wieners?"

"Um no, and to tell you the truth, I really don't care." Dane replied

"Sure ya don't thereFelts, but your lucky, I won't tell you the story if you promise to look at some of the pictures I took while on the trip."

Dane started to cough and mumbled, "I wish I could asskick you"

"What was that Sergeant?" TK queried

"Nothing!" Dane instinctively replied

Suddenly over the LAAT com, Yillis' voice rang out, "hey is sunray up there?"

---Back in the Woods---

Yillis was still singing to distract the people following him, most likely Hellra and Darr. He was confused though because when he circled around to get behind them he found three tracks in the woods, not including his own. That is when he heard the LAAT.

He opened a private link on his wristcom to the LAAT, "Hey is sunray up there?"

TK's voice came back, "yeah, I'm flying this beast."

"HOW! DID YOU DRUG DANE?"

"Nah he let me take it for a spin."

"God, we're gonna need to do a mental check on him then. Ok can you do me a favor?"

"Sure"

"I need you to come to my location and pick me up."

"What for?"

"I'll tell you on the LAAT."

The LAAT tracked Yillis through the onboard computer, tracking his wristcom. The LAAT flew over to the position and lower itself so Yillis could jump on. Yillis took off his wrist com and dropped it on the forest floor.

Yillis went up to TK and Dance, "I need you to record this, and play it out my wristcom."

"Sure thing, though I am gonna need a good explanation for this."

"Will do"

Yillis started singing again and after getting to a part were it was about to loop back he stopped and motioned for TK to cut recording.

"There, that will fool them"

---Back to Hellra, Vint, Darr---

Vint started to ask, "Why is our LAAT flying around..."

Hellra answered his question, "Well there could be lots of reasons, you never know. Dane might just be keeping in practice, practice makes perfect.

Darr motioned for Hellra to stop speaking, and listened for a minutes, "Yillis' singing stopped."

"Hmm I wonder if this has anything to do with the LAAT."

Hellra responded, "I doubt it, he doesn't even know we're coming does he."

"I guess not"

Then they all heard Yillis' singing start back up again, "See guys, Yillis is still out here. Now anyone have any ideas what we should do with him."

Darr offered, "I guess we could just kidnap him?"

Hellra rejected that idea, "Hmm not original enough. We need some solid you know?"

Vint sat down on a rock and thought for a bit, "Maybe we could just scare him a bit. Ghosts or something, too bad none of us is one of those infamous Dark Jedi. You ever seen of those?"

"Man, the Dark Jedi Order doesn't exist. Vint you're such a fool."

"I've seen them Darr."

"Yeah and I've seen pigs fly."

"You know a Dark Jedi Knight could make a pig fly."

"Shut up."

TK looked at Yillis as he flew the LAAT, Yillis looked back with curiosity. "What is is Sarge?" Yillis asked. Felts started to stare at Yillis too, Yillis was getting slightly uncomfortable. "What?" Yillis asked again. "Where the hell is your armour?" asked TK and Dane in unison as Dane pointed out to the near naked Yillis. "Oh I left it as a little gift to the -- AAAH! Watch out for that tree!!!" Yillis loudly pointed out.

Vint, Hellra and Darr-Rann looked at the LAAT as it narrowly missed the tree. Vint looked at Darr-Rann and Darr-Rann looked back. They asked each other, "Did someone drugged Dane again?". "Sssh!" Hellra ordered. The other two swiftly and silently moved closer to Hellra. "What is it Hell?" Darr-Rann asked. "Look over there" Hellra told him as she pointed towards the bushes, "An armour". "It must be him!" Vint commented. "Let's charge him!" Darr-Rann sugested. "Ok, let's go!" Hellra ordered.

Thinking it was Yillis, Vint spear tackled the armour only to find himself to be in a lot of pain. "Aaah! what the hell!" Vint loudly muttered. "The armour is being worn by a tree..." Hellra pointed out. Suddenly, Yillis' singing became louder, Darr-Rann looked at the bushes and let out a loud "Ewww!". "What is it?" Hellra asked. "He must be naked behind those bushes!!!!" Darr-Rann scoffed out. "Aaaaah!" Those three loudly screamt as they ran off.

"Hey Sergeant, can you teach me how to fly one of these things?" Yillis asked.
"No" Felts instantly replied.
"Please!" Yillis asked again.
"No" Felts instantly replied.
"Oww come on Sarge!" Yillis begged.
"Lance Corporal, you're lucky that I'm allowing you to board my LAAT after that incident!" Felts angrily replied.
"Sunray what do you think, are you going to let me have a go?" Yillis asked.
"Yillis... Two words... Shut up..." TK replied as he flew the LAAT.

    Vint, Hellra, and Darr went back inside. Darr collapsed onto a bench.
    "What was it?" Vint questioned.
    Darr looked down at the ground, then started laughing.
    "Well..." Darr just got up and started walking down the hall with the strangest expression on his face. Vint and Hellra kept a steady pace behind him waiting for an answer. Darr went into the room where the rest of the squad (except for TK and Yillis) were watching Jenne and Trooper play holochess. Trooper was in the lead, but the leader in a holochess game can change with one wrong move. Darr sat down on a couch that was away from the game, Vint and Hellra did also.

    "So...what did you see? Was Yillis naked that bad?" Hellra joked.

    "It wasnt Yillis naked." Darr blankly said.

    "I cant think of anything else that could do this much truama."

    The game of holochess abruptly ended. Jenne had won. The next game was starting, Jenne VS. Knightwind. Jenne went first. Her move was a simple defensive one. Knightwind did the same. Then Jenne's biggest piece attacked, and defeated one Knightwinds. Knightwind advanced more of his pieces.

    "I saw..."Darr started.

    "You saw...what?" Hellra asked.

    "I saw.."

Hellra snorted, "Darr, the worst thing in the galaxy would be Yillis naked, and I don't think it was that, sow what was it?"

Darr mumbled something beneath his breath which neither Vint nor Hellra could hear.

"Darr what did you say-" Hellra was cut off by Jenny yelling that she beat Knightwind and running around the room in a crazed winning dance thingy.

"Jenny, what are you doing...?" Hellra asked.

"I just won 50 IC's from Knightwind!" Jenny replied.

"But Jenny...I can go down to the local "Best Imperial Fraction in the Galaxy" voting stand (Pay Per Click) and vote for us and make 300 IC's, sometimes you even get 1000."

"So...?"

"Never mind, has any of you seen Yillis or TK or Dane?" Hellra asked.

Everyone in the room said they hadn't seen either of them.

"Hmm, Vint and Darr, lets go check to see if the LAAT actually came back."

Darr replied, "Nah Hellra, I'm just gonna stay here, maybe win some money from Jenny, cause I know that I could annihilate her."

"Suit yourself, vint come on."

"Actually Hellra, I'm going to stay with Darr, you intimidate me..."

"FINE! I'LL GO CHECK MYSELF, "Hellra practically yelled as she stormed out of the rec room. As soon as the door closed activities went back as they were before she entered.

---Hallway with Hellra---

"Now which way is the hanger, was it a left back there, or the right up here..." Hellra wondered out loud.

"BEEP! To get to the hanger, you must travel 37 point 3 meters and make a 90 degree turn in an east direction," Hellra's guidance droid answered.

"I am gonna take you apart as soon as I don't need you, and make you into some useful, like a beverage maker." Hellra muttered.

"BEEP! I am better suited as a guidance droid."

"Shut it."

"Command Acknowledged."

Hellra walked the rest of distance and turned right and walked a bit down the hall, until smashing into a large door reading "Hanger"

"Stupid droid! why didn't you tell me there was a door here."

"Your command has been acknowledged, thus resulted in my lack of guidance."

Hellra growled at the droid and opened the hanger door and walked in.

"Is the LAAT in her-"

Hellra's last words were garbled by the bag that was thrown over her head.

        -- Back to the holochess game --

    Darr moved his smallest piece in the open. Jenny attacked it with a large piece. Darr had set up this move perfectly and attacked the piece Jenny used to destory his smaller one.Little did Darr know that Jenny was expecting it the whole time. Darr had left open his best piece and Jenny took it.
    " Damn, your better than i thought Jenn."
    " Everyone under estimates me. Now you can give me my 70 IC's."
    " I wouldn't giv-"
    Suddenly a large explosion was heard. Then another.
    " What the?" Vint said.
     " All troops, report to your battle stations. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill!" said a voice from com. unit on the wall.
    All the squad members in the room burst out of the room to get to the sleeping quarters.
    " What's going on?" asked Splinter.
    " I think we're under attack by Rebel bombers." answered Knightwind.
     After a few turns and long hallways, they all got to their quarters and got suited up into their uniforms. Splinter didn't know what to do, so he followed Vint, Knightwind Darr, and Jennabelle. They all ran to an assembly area. A SL commanded the Stormtroopers in the area. There was about one-hundred all lined up. Suddenly, there was more bombs exploding and Anti-aircraft lasers shooting up at the Y-wing bombers. The SL leading the group was saying something, but the Lancers couldn't hear him. Then, the large doors opened and there was a small ground battle outside. Darr told all the Lancers to follow him to the right side. They all broke off the line and hide behind some large crates.
    " Fire at anything that moves!" yelled Knightwind.
    They all started to shoot at the woods where Rebel forces seemed to be. Vint shot two down that were running toward them. Splinter shot in the forest randomly, but ended up hitting someone.
    " Lucky shot Splint!" yelled Darr over the noise.
    " Thanks!" he replied.
    " Move to the rim of the forest and try to flank some Knightwind!" commanded Darr.
     " Yes sir!"
    He ran and dove into a small ditch in the ground and shot fast, but accurate. He drove some off for a while. Then, Vint and Splinter joined him in the killing rampage.
    " You two go to the trees, I'll cover you!" said Knightwind.
    Splinter ran first running as fast as he could in the suit, then Vint followed. They shot at a group of six Rebels and they killed four, the other two ran. Jenny soon came to their aid, then the rest of the Lancers(that were there).

Hellra jammed her elbow backwards instinctively when the bag covered her head. She winced in response, her bare elbow making contact with armour. She tried to throw her other elbow back but it was neatly caught.
She felt the cold plastic yet metal loop of a blaster pistol at her head.

The humour that was present in the LAAT a few minutes before was replaced with a tense atmosphere. Dane has landed the LAAT in the forest. Just as it landed Yillis sprinted out of it in the direction of the base to get the squad. Small explosions started raining towards the base followed with two big explosions. They landed the LAAT quickly to avoid any enemy in the sky.
TK was sitting a on moss covered boulder, he was staring at nothing in particular, his thoughts were racing and jumbling, making plans at the new un expected even that just happened. The sound of small doors opening and closing bought him back to the LAAT. He didn't like that they were landed in the forest in the midst of the attack.
"What are you doing Dane?" asked TK in a hushed voice, even hushed, his voice seemed to spread around their surroundings. The natural sound of the bird's music, and even the flowing river seemed to grew silent at the new threat that loomed in front of them. The air smelled dry and crisp, a warm breeze made it's through the forest rustling the leaves slightly. The dull sounds of people screaming and blaster shots reached his ears. TK glanced around him uneasily, this silence, was creeping up around him. He stood up quickly in order to get to the LAAT.

"I am looking for some spare rifles in here, and some armour" TK looked behind him again, his eye darted around trying to detect any suspicious movements. He slowly stepped backwards to the LAAT, his left robotic hand held a blaster pistol firmly in his hand ready to shoot anything that moves.
His nose picked up a burning scent. He turned instinctively towards the source. His eyes widened in surprise. From afar a roaring fire could be seen heading directly towards them, the heat waves emitting from the flames bounced countless times against his face

Darr-Rann leaded the rest of the squad. He was used to these motions of life and death situations. It became just another daily life basis for him. The rest of the squad followed him as he weaved in and out between the trees. They trudged lightly over the ground. Darr-Rann turned around just to double check if anyone was following them. His trained eyes scanned the area quickly before motioning them to continue.

Suddenly a blaster shot passed over their heads, soon followed by more. Instinctively the squad ducked and rolled to nearby bushed and tree's. Darr-Rann held his blaster close to his face; his back leaned against the rough surface of the tree. More shots rang through the sky. Birds fluttered away in fright. Darr-Rann peered from behind the tree twisting his back to gain more view. He jerked his head back as wood splintered in his face in response to the shot that slammed in the tree in attempt to kill him. Darr-Rann closed his eyes. For a second he froze, he just escaped death once again. A memory of Jessica flashed across his memory. A fellow trooper who studdied with him in medic. A fallen trooper killed by the hands of a friend, a traitor. He clenched his teeth in determination.

Seconds, hours, minutes passed. To Darr-Rann it just became another motion. Time had no meaning as the squad covered behind bush and trees fought the rebel shots. Not only were they fighting for their own life, it was for each other, they did it for the Vast Empire, it was expected of them.

Darr-Rann was inhaling deep breaths; he slowly pushed them out then inhaled again. This process kept repeating while sweat trickled down his face in his neck. The amount of rebels that attacked them has died down to only a few that survived the squad furious blasts.

"Looks, like we will have to smoke them out guys"
A gruff voice could be heard above the lone blasts that travelled through the trees.
Darr-Rann's insides turned ice along with everyone else.
"Squad move inside, if we get in the open we are dead" shouted Darr-Rann, he sprinted to the inner rims of the forest, either way, going out of the forest or just going deeper, both would result in death.

AN: TK said i can post.

TK darted across the smoke filled halls and corridors. His eyes burned and watered. Coughs racked through his body, he was inhaling too much smoke. He had to find Yillis and Hellra, the rest of the squad found the LAAT when they tried to flee the raging flames that threatened to burn them.

Hellra struggled to get rid of the ropes. They have tied her tightly and left her somewhere. She wasn't sacred of the darkness she found her self in, she used to it now. But with tied hands? More minutes passed in which struggled fruitlessly to break free.

"At least they didn't tie my feet"
She stood up, her body swayed from one side to the other in attempt to regain balance.
Hellra bent down, to climb through her arms to get them in front of her. With her hands in front of her she could easily reach for her Vibroblade at her waist.
She slipped the blade in between her hands. She sighed in relief as her hands came loose.
"Now to find my damn way"

"So this all was just a simulator?
"Yes, we were testing the new system, and also the squads 's responses to it. I must say Sergeant, Lancer Squad did an excellent job"
TK stared at Major Rizzit blankly.
"Oh, okay, I guess I will assemble them all" Rizzit nodded and strode away through the crowd of confused trooper, some still with their rifles in their hands.

The squad was sitting restlessly in their barracks waiting for Hellra to arrive.
All heads turned to the door as it hissed.
"Where the hell were you!" yelled TK, he gazed angrily in her direction.
Hellra glared at him,
"Wow, you know, nowhere special, I just got tied, and left in some room" came her sarcastic reply.
"Hellra, I am warning, stop your sarcasm, now sit down, and lets get started," grumbled TK. Hellra muttered something, as she tried to hold her temper.
"Hell, you definitely need some anger management" snickered Yillis.
Hellra clenched her fists as she took a seat.
"Just get this started guys"

"What is the reason for this meeting?" asked Yillis, his face directed towards TK now.
"Get to know each other better," answered TK
The squad stared at him curiously.
I want each of you to stand up and say a few things about your self, for example, what you like, your best environment and etc. said TK. He sat down in his chair.
"TK, can't we do this tomorrow?" whined Hellra, her previous angered mood forgotten.
"No, todayt, we had a nice experiment with the simulator thatRizzit tested out and now its back to squad bonding" ordered TK, Hellra sighed and slumped from her upright position back in her chair. Darr-Rann and Knightwind simply got rid of the armour they wore with the simulator, to get more comfortable.
"Guys, you reek, lets get to a shower then we can 'bond' further" suggested Jennabelle.
"I am in" said Hellra happily, she darted from the room to get something to eat. The rest of the squad soon excited leaving Yillis and TK alone.


Hellra was humming happily to herself as she walked down the halls. Even though she didn't have sight, she has come to know the halls and corridors.
"Hell?" Hellra spun around recognizing the voice faintly.
"Em?" she asked hesitant
"HELL!" Hellra felt her self being hugged tightly.

Hellra was walking silently back to the Lancer Squad barracks. She didn't expect to see Emi after all these years. Emi was or maybe still is her best friend. Turns out she came looking Hellra, though she didn't intend on joining the Vast Empire. Hellra scoffed, the last thing she needed was her past. But it was nice seeing a familar face.

"Okay, lets get started, now that we are all freshened up" ordered TK. Most the squad members were wearing regular clothing.
"I got us some snacks, though we aren't allowed to have them actually, but Yillis and Hellra sneaked them in," said TK. He plopped himself in his chair.
"So, who wants to start?"

    No one said anything for a little while, but then Splinter spoke up." Ok, I guess I'll start. My name is Tye Lask. I was born on Coruscant. I seem to have a short temper most of the time. I used to get in a lot of fights at the school I went to. One time I was cut by an inactive vibroblade. That's how I got my scar that run down my right eye. I was critisized of my reddish orange eyes. A lot of people avioded me, when I was in my younger years and I didn't have many friends."

    Most of the squad members were paying full attention. Then, Splinter continued. " I was raised in a caring family. They were strong supporters of the Empire. In my teenage years, I was taught that the Rebels were evil and should not be tolerated, so I joined the Stromtrooper corps in the fight against the Rebels, despite my parents' opinion. I finished basic training rather quickly. I was placed in Nightstalkers for a while. We didn't do much, but it wasn't bad. I then got transfered here, where I filled in an empty spot. That's just a short summary of my life."

    " So, what are your other interests?" asked TK.

    " Well, I've always like to shoot at holograms for fun. I also want to become a heavy weapons specialist and sniper."

    " Do you have any siblings?' TK asked

    " No, my parent didn't want any more kids. Not that they didn't have the income, but because they thought their younger child would get made fun of. They didn't want a child who was mad, because his brother looked strange."

    " It sounds like your parents were pretty protective." stated Hellra.

    " They really were. I can't remember a time where my parents didn't after me exept at school." replied Splinter.

    " Who else would like to share a little bit about them? asked TK." We're a little short on time, so don't make it to long."

    There was silence for a while.

    " Anyone? Come on!" exclaimed TK.

I'll get you... You bastard... I've had more than enough betrayal in my life to have one of my squadmates do something like this...

The ship's hull began to rumble softly. Rizzit's shuttle had just entered Tadath's atmosphere, waking up half of the passengers aboard. Giovanni slowly opened his eyelids and took a look at the fuzzy shapes around him. He rubbed his eyes and had a better look around. Zafo was still sleeping, so was TJ, Squall and Marcus. The rest were patiently looking out the window waiting for the shuttle to touch down on Tadath.

"This is your captain speaking, please fasten your seatbelts. We will touch down shortly." said Rizzit over the ship's com system.

Rizzit sure is enjoying this...

Out of the corner of his eye he could see the rest of the Dragoons wake up and stretch. They were showing the usual signs of a multi-hour nap in a spaceship. Confusion, Crankiness, and above all, hunger. The feeling in the pit of Giovanni's stomach told him the ship was coming to a stop. Sunburnt and battle-worn, the Dragoons were finally home.

The first thing Giovanni did was take his luggage out from the ships interior. It didn't take long for him to recognize his stuff. His posessions were all in the same duffle bag he'd had since he was quite young. The once jet black bag was now a weather-worn dark gray. In a way it reminded Giovanni of his time in the VE Army.

Its too early in my career to be feeling like this..., he thought to himself. He shook off the feeling and remembered how hungry he was. He reached in his bag and pulled out his key card. Before he knew it, he had arrived at his room. He stepped inside and dropped all his things by the entrance. He stepped into the refresher booth. He changed into a fresh pair of slacks and a black shirt. He let his hair fall down in a mess, like he used to back on Coruscant. He looked down at his holopad and noticed an unusual message. It was from TK. It read:

>>>>To: CPL Giovanni Bryden
>>>>From: SSGT David "TK-112" Bowman
>>
>>MSG: LANCER BARRACKS! ASAP!
>>
>>[/end message]

"Well thats strange..." said Giovanni aloud. "...then again, so is TK."

"I just hope he has food..."

"Heh, Interesting" Muttered Zafo as he looked at his datapad. A message from TK flashed on the screen calling Zafo down to the Lancer Barracks. Wondering what his old ASL was up to, Zafo gave himself some time in the refresher unit then changed into a casual pair of clothes.

Zafo was still lost in his own thoughts. The event with the separatist on Cepany had really shaken him up. Only with answers could he fully recover. He decided it was better for him to try and get around, other than sitting in his room lost in his thoughts.

The Dragoon grabbed a sandwich and strolled into the lounge room to eat it.  The room was empty and the only sound was the cackle of the heatless flames in the fireplace. As he munched on his sandwich, Giovanni entered the lounge from the other side.

Zafo waved as he took another mouthful of his sandwich.

"Zafo" Gio nodded greetingly. "What you up to?"

Zafo finished his mouthful before answering "I'm heading over down to Lancer's Barracks for a bit. I got a message from TK calling me over"

"Ah, same here" Gio replied "Let's get going. We don't want to keep him waiting. He might go Nuna Soup on our asses"

The two Dragoons laughed as they both left the Dark Dragoon Barracks in search of the Lancer Barracks. After asking several people, they finally found it.

"Shall we knock?" Gio asked Zafo as they stood in front of the Barracks entrance.

"Probably" Zafo answered as he tried to get through the door. It was locked.

However, seconds later, the door opened. TK stood on the other side and smiled when he saw them.

"Ah! You both got my message" TK exclaimed "Come on In!"

Giovanni and Zafo strode in through the doors confidently.
"Gio!...Zafo!...come join us on our merry squad bonding time, the rest of your squad is also welcome" exclaimed TK. Gio and Zafo looked curiously at the Lancers. Every single one of them except TK and Yillis was a trooper fresh from recruitment.  TK turned to the squad, a big smile on his face.
"Squad, allow me to introduce you to Corporal Giovanni and Sergeant Zafo from the Dark Dragoon Squad" said TK still smiling. The Lancers looked at them with curious glances. Between training and missions they haven't really set out from their barracks to get to know the other squads.

  "You were in DD Squad TK?"
"Why yes Hellra, Yills here also, in fact I was ASL for about two weeks before I got appointed as SL for the Lancers" answered TK, Hellra snorted and muttered something.
"So who is the new guys?' asked Zafo.
"Well, if you really must know, its me and Yillis here, the girl who just talked is Hellra, then two guys sitting on her right side is Vint and Splinter-Seal, the guys on her left is Darr-Rann, the girl sitting beside Darr is Jennabelle, and the guys sitting left of Yillis is Trooper512, and the guys sitting near the corner is Knightwind" said TK in a long sentence barely inhaling a breath.

"Where is Shakey?"  Gio searched through the faces for her.
"There is some problems in her home world, so she retired" answered Yillis.
Silence stretched for a few seconds, before TK broke it.

"Let me and Yillis explain to you how the teams work" TK opened his mouth to continue when he was interrupted.
"TK, ask them if they want a seat, knowing you, you will talk for about an hour non-stop" Hellra was standing arms folded.
"Thanks Hellra, I was thinking the exact thing," replied Gio.
TK mumbled something as he waited for Gio and Zafo to get comfortable.

"Instead of fire team captains, we have Element leaders. We are the only close combat squad, I am the White EL, Yillis is the Red EL and Hellra is the blue EL, you keeping up so far?" TK looked questionably at Gio, he nodded.
"There are two modes, Dynamic and Stealth," continued Yillis.
"In Dynamic we barge doors, and start shouting, in stealth we lock pit it," said TK.
"TK, could we go over this later...there are only two dragoons here at the moment, wouldn't it be better to wait for the rest of the guys to arrive before you explain further?"  suggested Hellra.
"Guess you are right" mumbled TK, he slumped down in his seat looking bored. Though he didn't notice it Yillis gave Hellra a thankful look.

"So what were you guys doing before we came?" asked Zafo,
"Each squad member must give a small speech of his or her own life and past, you can join us," answered Yillis,

"So...anybody?" asked TK again&.

Yillis started speaking, "Fine, I guess I can tell you all about the great, wonderful and don't forget powerful Yillis. Well I guess it all started back when I was one day old. I was one day old and I don't remember anything of that time. Come to think of it...I don't remember what I had for breakfast. At least it wasn't anything by TK."

TK looked up from where he was day dreaming and glared at Yillis, "You know, I'm going to find your stash of food, and then you will finally join the rest of the squad in eating only food made by me!"

"You think I only have one stash? Pfffft. Anyways, well I guess I'll skip the useless part of my life. I was just a kid really, 19 or 20 or something, and I'm out in my X-wing. Just so you know, my parents had got it for me. Same colors as the filthy rebels, I quickly got it painted black with a sweet looking yellow trim. Oh right. Anyone want to come down and look at it after I finish my story?"

Yillis looked up at the squad hoping someone would want to escape from TK, but TK spoke up too soon, "Maybe after everyone finishes, just so you know, Yillis, I know your tricks."

The squad burst out in laughter but as Yillis glared at everyone from the front of the room it quickly quieted down.

"ANY! ways... I was out in my X-wing......

---20 Minutes later---

"......Yeah so that's when I ended up in Lancer"

Gio was the first to speak, "We didn't want you in Dark Dragoons anyways."

Yillis took Gio's joke in stride, "I wouldn't be proud of making people go AWOL."

Yillis and the Dark Dragoons broke out in laughter. TK quickly stepped in, "Ok if no one else starts in ten seconds then I'm docking everyone's pay."
