I would like to take this time to thank every veteran of this great nation for their service. Without you we wouldn't be here now, thank you for your service and have a blessed day.

Chapter 1: Induction

Ten Years before the battle of Geonosis

The broken bottle bit at his neck as his father hit him with it, Naruto's eyes stung with tears as the bottle cut and scraped at his flesh. "Shut up quit your fucking crying." His father Minato raged at him. Naruto tried to get away from the enraged man only to be pulled back by the collar of his shirt. He tumbled and hit his head on the corner of the coffee table. Minato grabbed Naruto by the arm and shoved him outside. "Get out you little shit." Said Minato as Naruto landed on the sidewalk outside of his house. Naruto ran as fast as he could away from the hell that was his own home. He headed towards an abandoned apartment complex a few blocks down from his street.

He reached it in minutes, the boy climbed the stairs. The place was rotten and infested with rats and other vermin, but Naruto didn't complain in the slightest. This place rotten and broken as it was, it was his sanctuary. Naruto had discovered it when his "father" was drunk enough to kick him out; which most days he was. Coming to the top floor Naruto folded into himself, and held his knees. The boy looked at the scars on his arms and thought back to when he was in the academy. Iruka the only teacher that he liked asked about the bruises, Naruto said that it was from training to hard. In hindsight Naruto thought it was a bad decision as the beatings had gotten worse.

Naruto would have kept reminiscing but was interrupted when he heard quick footsteps. He looked up to see a man running down one of the halls. Thinking it was another attack on his person Naruto ducked behind an overturned desk, and prayed. There was a great crash as the ceiling fell in, then a yell and finally a cold voice spoke "Dead or alive Razz?"

Rav Bralor crashed through the roof of the building, knocking her target to the ground. She was on him before he could blink, and before he moved from his position she raised her boot and brought in down crushing his knee cap. Razz yelled and reached for his blaster but Rav stomped on his arm and pointed a scatter gun at his face. Her fury was made evident in her voice "Dead or alive Razz?" she had been tracking Razz from Coruscant before being caught in an ambush on Hutta, where she was knocked out and…. Her features hardened even more, she picked up the beaten man by the collar and slammed him against a wall. Rav then raised her fist and prepared to beat the worm to death when she heard a startled "Gahh" she looked over to the desk to find a small boy.

She was stunned that a child would be in this decrepit building, then she saw the wounds. Her eyes widened at the sheer number of wounds that covered his arms, face and the front of his neck. While she was inspecting him her captive tried to escape from the Mandalorians iron grip to no avail however. She looked back at the worm and punched him lighter than first intended knocking him out. The kid looked scared as if he expected her to attack him. The well-built woman crouched down, took off her helmet, and smiled at him. "Come out from there kid I'm not going to hurt you." she said as he tentatively he stretched his arm out to her and grasped the woman's hand.

Naruto came out from his hiding spot slowly, watching the woman carefully for any threat. Once out of his hiding spot she sat down with her legs crossed, she motioned to herself and said "My name is Rav Bralor what's yours?" Naruto answered "Naruto…" he looked away, afraid that after she discovered who he was she'd be repulsed. She smiled again then said "that's a nice name. Tell me why you are here in this building?" Naruto thought about telling the truth, on the one hand his father was still an influence on people and Rav wouldn't believe him, on the other a sliver of hope glimmered and maybe just maybe she would get him out of the reach of his father. He decided to risk it.

"My dad b-beats me, he drinks something that gets him mad and…." Rav hugged him lightly as he started to cry. Her face contorted into a mask of fury as she saw even more scars on the back of his neck. Then she whispered into his ear "I could adopt you if you want." Naruto froze then said "I'd like that but what about my…." She covered his mouth with a finger and said "He did bad things to you, he doesn't deserve to be called your Dad. And don't worry your new mother will take care of it." Naruto nodded knowing she was right she stood, replaced her helmet and picked up Naruto then rocketed off into the sky but not before tying up her target and gaging him.

Rav arrived at her ship which was parked in the forest a few minutes away. She opened the hatch and led Naruto into it "This is the Mantis my ship." Then an electronic voice spoke "Madame welcome back oh I didn't know that we had guests." Naruto hid from the droid Rav gave a slight laugh and said "114d meet Naruto Bralor my adopted son. Naruto this is 114d a droid that I use to make sure that my ship is running smoothly. He will watch over you for a while until I return." At Naruto's dejected face she said "I just need to make sure everything for the adoption is taken care of." Naruto accepted that answer with a nod of his head. Then she motioned for 114d to come over when it did she whispered to him "keep him occupied and feed him then put him to bed in my quarters." The droid answered "affirmative but how will I keep him occupied?" Rav smiled at her droid "Teach him about blasters, if that doesn't work tell him that joke you know." Then she left her son and her droid to have a chat with Naruto's father.

Minato Namikaze former fourth Hokage of Konoha had just purchased more beer from the convenience store about a block from his home. He was reminiscing about how his life had gone south, how when he sealed the nine tails into Naruto it stripped him of his ability to mold chakra, and how his wife died at the hands of the demon 'that little shit stain cost me everything.' He thought darkly he had nearly reached the door to his home when someone said "Who is Naruto's father?" he looked around then a wire wrapped around his wrist and jerked him into the sky. He held the wire as he was pulled screaming into the black of the night sky. He saw a fire in front of him and there seemed to be a person attached to it.

Rav Brelor touched a button on her gauntlet and the wire that she was using to carry the man was detached from her. She watched him crash into the building that she and Naruto first met. She rocketed into it after him. She then punched him in the gut sending him into the wall, the man brought his fists up but to no avail Rav continued to rail on the alcoholic. He tried to punch her back only to stumble as he missed, Rav had ducked down below the punch and brought her leg up kicking him in the chest knocking the drunk back. The blonde man lay on the ground as the woman got on top of him and began punching him in the face.

"How do you like it Hu'tuun?" she said as she bruised his face, she continued to do this until she felt his nose break. She grabbed Minato by the collar and spoke in a menacing tone "For beating your son and not taking care of him I would kill you now, but I'm not going to. I think that death is what you want, so let these bruises be karma. And I'm adopting Naruto, you don't deserve to be a father." And with that said Rav punched him one more time knocking the man out.

Rav returned to her ship after re-knocking out her target. There she tied him up and put hin into her cargo hold. She returned to find Naruto laughing at the joke that 114d had told about a bartender and a zombie. "I'm back." She said to the pair. Naruto rushed at her and hugged her, which she returned earnestly. She then instructed the droid "Take us to Coruscant."

After about thirty minutes of giving Naruto the rundown on the galaxy at large and the species that dwelled within it, Rav made a bunk for him. Then she changed into pajama's and went to sleep in her own bed, only to wake up a few minutes later to Naruto standing beside her bed "Naruto, you ok?" she asked concern filled her voice. His answer came out with a shiver "I'm cold, can I sleep with you… mom?" she smiled tiredly and nodded making the blonde smile as he climbed in after her.

The ship made it to Coruscant in a few hours, Rav got redressed in her armor and told 114d to watch Naruto until she dropped her target off at the designated point. It took about ten minutes and when she returned Naruto was just starting to wake up. She smiled at him while she checked her bank account which was sitting at two hundred thousand credits. He rubbed his eyes as he walked toward her "Morning Naruto, how did you sleep?" He gave her a foxy grin and said "Better than before." She chuckled then said "we're going for breakfast at an old friend's restaurant."

They ended up eating at Dex's diner, where the two ordered breakfast. She had to help naruto order as he couldn't read the menu. Then Naruto asked questions about aliens, such as how many were there and she answered as best as she could. When the meal came Rav got a call on her comlink. She turned to the side and answered it, a man's voice was heard "Rav are you there? It's Jango." She answered in an icy tone "Jango Fett what could you possibly want with me?" Jango responded "I need you for a job, if you're interested. I can't talk about it over the com's come to Kamino if you want it." Rav huffed in annoyance and said "If you don't give me a basic summery of what I'll be doing then no." At this Jango growled "I'm in need of a competent PT/ hand to hand instructor that's all I can tell you."

She paused and considered it 'It must be important, for him to contact me personally about this says a lot. But I can't go on assignment with Naruto with me, and I certainly can't leave him alone with 11-4d.' she spoke to Jango again "If I'm going to do this, I need a room with two beds. And a favor from you if I'm right about what you have planned." Jango grew impatient and said "Yes. Yes whatever you want. just be here in four days." Rav agreed "Four days copy that." She looked back at her plate and began to eat her food when Naruto asked "Who was that mom?" she swallowed the food that she had in her mouth and answered her son's question "A man that owes me a favor, a big one." he seemed to accept the answer and they continued eating.

Four days later

Jango Fett stood in the Kaminoan main hanger, the rain had started three minutes ago and he was already soaked. Not that he really cared as he wanted to greet his Cuy'val Dar personally when they arrived some like Kal Skirata had arrived in a few hours after he called them and they were in an assembly area waiting to be briefed on the job that required so many Mandalorians. When a ship arrived in front of him, he recognized it, it was the Mantis; Rav Braylor's ship. His eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets as the woman and a small boy departed from said ship. 'When did she decide to have a kid?' he thought to himself. He went to shake her hand when she grabbed him by the breast plate of his armor and hoisted him into the air "Jango you better remember that favor you owe me, or by Mandalor you'll be sorry that our paths crossed on Deveron." He nodded and said "Yeah I remember, please join your fellows in the auditorium." She set him down gently, and motioned for the blonde to follow her.

Naruto waited for his mother in a waiting room while the adults were talking. He was quickly getting bored and decided to listen in. He pressed his ear to the door and heard the conversation inside. "Now I know you're wondering why I asked for you here well the answer is; you're the finest in your respective fields. Trackers, sappers, and survival experts just to name a few. I picked you personally because I want you to train the finest soldiers and commandos in the galaxy. You'll have whatever you need, and whatever you want. Save for one thing, home as this is a top secret project. As far as your friends and family are concerned you're all dead. We'll go over who's training what in a few hours to give all of you a change to see the facility and to settle in." said Jango and with that the meeting adjourned. Most of the Mandalorians left while Rav stayed behind to talk with the man "Jango I'm calling in that favor." He raised an eyebrow at her when she called out to the hall "Naruto can you come here please?"

Within moments a boy with a mop of blonde hair stood in front of Rav. She then made introductions "Naruto this is my friend Jango Fett. Jango this is my adopted son Naruto." Jango nodded to the boy who said "Hi." Rav then looked Jango dead in the eye and said "I want my son to be in this army that you're having us train." Jango was shocked to hear that Rav wanted this to be her favor, he quickly gathered himself and sighed "Well there are two places where we can put him, either the Commando squads, or the ARC's." he then looked at Naruto and said "That choice is up to you small fry, you think your brave enough?" Naruto adopted a determined look and said "I can handle anything." Jango smiled at this, not a pleasant smile but a sly one "Is that so? Then which will it be, brat?" the blonde questioned him back "What's the difference?" Jango mentally grinned 'Kid's smart, wants to know what he'll be in for.' He answered "Commando's work in groups and handle secret missions while ARC's are one man armies, the best."

Naruto thought for a moment, weighed his options then he spoke "I pick ARC." Jango's grin somehow got wider as he stuck his hand out to Naruto for him to shake, the blonde took the offered hand and gave a squeeze the Mandalorian said to him "welcome to the GAR boy, I look forward to hearing about you." Naruto gave a determined nod.

Ten years later

Naruto age 18

Rav marched down a hall of the training facility in Tipoca city. She headed towards the citadel training course to watch Naruto perform the exercise. She smiled as she fondly remembered the training that made him into a man. As much as she would like to say she brought him up herself she knew it would be a lie. It was a combination of herself, Kal Skirata, and surprisingly Walon Vau. They had each rubbed off on the young Mandalorian by teaching him Mando'a. Rav had shaped him up from a small boy to a wall of toned muscle, not only that she had taught him Mandalorian martial arts and how to use blasters and explosives. She walked into the observation room and found that her son was about to begin his test.

Naruto entered the elevator to take him down to the citadel, he breathed easy. Even though this was to be a part of his graduation exam he wasn't nervous he had ran through the simulation many times and had passed with flying colors. He glanced up and spied his mother in the control room, their eyes locked and she gave him a warm smile as a form of encouragement. The alarm blared and the test began, naruto rolled to cover as the training simulation hurled hundreds of blaster bolts at him. As he came up he lobed a grenade into a squad of droids. It detonated sending shrapnel into the units. Then the blaster turrets were on him, the blonde looked up and fired a burst of three bolts from his DC-15A rifle. All three hit the droid and the cannon went silent. He then turned his attention to the other rapid firing cannon. The droid manning it knelt down so that it was firing while keeping itself safe from returning fire.

Naruto moved up so as to get a better angle on the turret, the blonde pressed his back against the duracrete and took a mirror out from his utility belt. He then carefully held it up so as to get a safer view of his objective. He saw three droids left counting the one that manned the turret along with blasters fixed to the back wall which his objective was on top of. The teen leaned out of his cover to slot the two droids who were firing at his cover. He pulled the trigger twice, and both targets fell in a heap. Then he used his last grenade to take out the last turret. He sent it sailing through the air but was hit in the arm in the process. It detonated delivering the desired effect the turret being knocked out. He looked down at his arm, and grimaced the rounds that hit it were rounds that numbed limbs. It too had the desired effect. His arm hung limply by his side. Naruto growled in annoyance at his own carelessness, he resolved to never make the same mistake twice.

Then he bolted from cover to cover inching closer and closer to his objective until something happened. The canons on the wall slowed the rate that they were firing. Naruto dove for cover at the same time so he didn't notice right away, then the hairs on his neck stood on end. Naruto then heard a grinding noise like stone sliding on stone. He half turned and he paled behind his protective helm as a trade federation tank made its way onto the training ground. The tank aimed its cannon at him. As soon as he saw it move its main gun at him he did the unexpected he ran towards it. When it fired the round slammed into the wall cannon formation neutralizing them. Naruto jumped onto the turret and opened the hatch. He brought his DC-17 pistol to bear while retaining his balance on the turret, and fired inside disabling the driver. To his dismay however the droid pressed the accelerator making Naruto fall off and land on his arm.

The bone broke earning a yell from the blonde. After getting to his feet he broke into a run towards the objective. When he reached the wall the blonde reached for the cable launcher on his belt. He aimed it and fired the cable stuck to the edge of the platform, then he hoisted himself up. When he reached the top he used his feet to spring himself onto the top of the structure. There he shakily got to his feet, jogged to the flag and he hoisted it from the slot ending the test. The alarm blared again and the maintenance crew cleared the debris while Jango, Kal, and his mother came down to meet him. The blonde stood at attention while his commanding officer and instructors came up to him. "ARC trainee, well done. Your result score was a ninety eight you lost one point for getting hit and another point for the arm. You pass, but don't get cocky di'kut" jango finished with a smirk and left Kal and Rav with the teen.

The duo both congratulated naruto on his success then it was Kal's turn to leave. Naruto and Rav then headed to the medical wing next door. A clone wearing scrubs took off the armor that was on the broken arm and shook his head. "Broken arm again eh? Well at least it's not your leg this time." the doctor proceeded to put a cast on it then went back to his rounds helping injured clones. Naruto and his mother decided to head to their apartment.

"Naruto, you did well today. Needless to say I'm very proud of you." Rav said as they got back to the apartment. He smiled and hugged his mother and said "Thanks mom." Then she said "but pull another stunt like that I'll kick your shebs." This made the blonde pale, and after assuring his mother that he'd never be as reckless again he fell asleep.

The following morning was one of slight confusion apparently there was a Jedi who visited the night before and Jango Fett had left Kamino for parts unknown. When Naruto learned the news he was shocked but accepted it. After all Fett could take care of himself. The rest of the day was spent learning different dialects and customs which Naruto found to be tedious and boring as he cared little for other cultures. It was a few days after that things got interesting. Naruto sat within the mess hall dressed in red fatigues with his arm out of the cast. When CT-7567 aka Rex came up to him. "Hey Naruto, you hear what's going on?" Naruto turned and regarded his friend "No, what's going on?" Rex explained that a group of Jedi had come to Kamino. That they rounded up seven legions of clones and that the troops were shipping out. "But they didn't include us, did they?" Rex paused his near rant about how unfair it was that he didn't get picked to look at the blonde and say "No, they didn't. You have any idea why?"

Naruto looked at the ceiling as if the answer was written there before saying "Maybe there was an emergency. Or maybe something else is going on around here but you can bet it has something to do with the jedi showing up yesterday." Rex would have responded but the PA system blared "All ARC troopers report to the assembly area. I say again all ARC troopers report to the assembly area." They looked at each other briefly before setting off to the assigned location. When they got there all of alpha company, Naruto himself, and the nulls were assembled in a semi-circle. Walon Vau stood at the podium. The aged Mandalorian commando gazed at each of them before he said in a loud thunderous voice "You have all been called here for your assignments, some of you will be spec ops. Others will be given command positions in various fields." Then he read off the clone's numbers starting with the alphas who were all given spec ops duties save for Rex "CT-7567 you will be in command of an infantry company in the five hundred first legion."

Last but not least the aged Mando stared at Naruto "Ah Naruto Brelor, the only non-clone in the GAR. I can think of no one more qualified to lead the five hundred sixth airborne infantry company attached to the two twelfth attack battalion." Naruto stood at attention and said "Thank you sir." After assignments they were told to grab their gear and wait for their generals to arrive. Naruto reached his apartment to be greeted by his mother. "Team assignments came in." he told her Rav replied with "Yes I know, naruto I have a surprise for you." He raised an eyebrow when Rav went to a closet. She pulled out a large trunk that was on a repulse lift for ease of transport. "Naruto, I wanted to give you this." she said as she opened the trunk, and Naruto's eyes widened. Inside was the perfect combination of Mandalorian and clone trooper armor it was white with an orange trim to it. Then his gaze was drawn to the right, next to the set of armor was a sword. He slowly walked up to the trunk as Rav spoke again. "Yes I thought that you'd like that, it's made of a potent mix of cortosis and Mando iron, and the sheath is made of nerf hide so it's durable."

Naruto turned to her and hugged his mother again and said "Mom, thank you so much for everything." Naruto donned his new armor and noted that his helm was mandalorian not GAR standard issue. Then there was his pauldrons on one side there was a symbol of the republic and the other a Taung skull; the symbol for mandalor. Rav held her son's helm within her grasp and when she saw that he was in his new armor she offered the helm and spoke the words that her father used when he sent her off to battle for the first time "Naruto, on this day I send you into battle. I have taught you everything I know, may your friends and allies stand strong while your enemies tremble and flee in your wake." She then handed him the helm and hugged him again as she spoke "Kal asked me to watch his house on mandalore, so if you need me I'll be there." he nodded and said "I will contact you whenever I can." Rav nodded as a tear fell down her face and watched him join the other troops to board the cruisers and pack their bunks.

Naruto boarded the cruiser and quickly found his bunk coincidentally right next to Rex's, being an organized man he had everything stowed away within two minutes. After he was done Naruto made his way to the bridge to announce when the airborne would have a meet and greet. When the blonde entered the entire room snapped to attention "At ease." Naruto said without so much as breaking stride as he got onto the PA system "This is Captain Naruto Brelor to all troops within the five hundred sixth airborne report to the hangar at oh five thirty hours tomorrow attendance is mandatory." Then he strode from the bridge to the hanger when he arrived the blonde heard the yelling of an angry captain Rex.

Naruto could tell most clones apart when they spoke, not by differences in sound but by how they talked. He quickly found the area where the chewing out was taking place and saw that Rex was angry at a private whom had the 'privilege' of mopping the deck clean. The private had made the mistake of not paying attention to his surroundings and went over Rex's boot with his mop. "Stand at attention when an officer addresses you. Now explain why wasn't this done fifty minutes ago when we weren't boarding?" The private looked terrified as the arc trooper bared down on him verbally. Naruto had seen enough and decided to intervene. "Rex." His startled friend spun to face him then Naruto spoke again "It was an accident, we all sometimes get caught up in doing our tasks." Naruto didn't need to say to leave the private alone Rex had gotten the message loud and clear.

Naruto turned to the private and said "What is your name and your unit?" the private stuttered out his numbers but not a name then he said his unit "I'm w-with the f-five hundred sixth airborne, s-sir." Naruto responded with "Well, today is your lucky day your CO just saved your shebs. …So you don't have a name?" the private shook his head meekly but raised it when Naruto said "From now on your name is Stammer, and in return for my intervention you have to be here tomorrow earlier that the others." The newly christened stammer nodded and said "Yes sir." Then Naruto retreated to his bunk after an hour of checking the riggings for his company's parachutes, from what he was told they were made from a bio degradable material so that no environmental damage would occur. Then the ship reached its destination; the world of Geonosis. In the hours that followed they received many wounded clones and a few jedi. He took part in getting the medical bay ready by making room for the injured and helping plug wounds. Then a stretcher came by carrying a young Jedi who'd had his arm severed.

The boy was writhing in pain as the team carried him to the infirmary which was packed. Then a Jedi in a tan tunic and a woman clad in white followed after the stretcher Naruto saw their worried faces and guessed that the boy was the older ones charge. He regained focus and continued to tend to the wounded for the rest of the day.

Naruto woke up at zero four thirty hours and went to the mess hall where he found out from Rex that they were on Coruscant and that they had received orders to head to the planet of Bakura. When Naruto had finished his meal he went to the hanger to check the rigging on the parachutes again and met the lead pilot that would take his troops and himself into combat. "Captain Naruto I take it?" the man asked with a grin on his face as he saluted then stuck out his hand "Name's Screwball sir, I'll be your taxi out of here and to the drop zone." Naruto shook Screwball's hand and replied "Good to see you, I figure I owe you a drink." The man raised an eyebrow and asked "How do you figure that sir?" Naruto grinned and said "Considering that you volunteered to drop us you deserve a drink. I'll get you one after the first drop." Screwball smiled and replied "I knew that I had a good feeling about you."

They chatted for about a half an hour until Stammer showed up at five o'clock exactly. Naruto eyed the private who looked as if he didn't get a good night's sleep "Stammer, go get yourself some chow the systems automated so you don't need to wait for the mess sergeant." Stammer gave an enthusiastic "Yes sir." and hurried to the mess. Fifteen minutes later he returned looking better, Naruto motioned for the private to check the chute rigging while waiting for the rest of the clones to join them. After another fifteen minutes clones stood in formation in front of him. Naruto's intimidating gaze roamed through their ranks as he spoke to them "Airborne, I am Captain Naruto Brelor. The only non-clone in the GAR, and your commanding officer. Now, go through the elements and give your name and rank." Each clone did so as Naruto marched through the elements to fix them with a blood freezing stare. When he got to the last trooper he was in for a shock, standing before him was not exactly a clone of Fett. Brown eyes stared back at him as Naruto tried to mentally process what he was seeing. In front of him stood what could only be described as a female version of Fett.

The she-clone saluted and sounded off "Sir, private Janga reporting as ordered sir." Naruto saluted back with a well hidden dumbfounded look on his face then he returned to the front of the company to address them again. "Airborne, we carry the weight of this war on our shoulders, each of you were handpicked by Jango fett himself to be in this outfit. To me that says a lot, some of you are demolition specialists, others are support gunners, while most including myself are riflemen. While we are for the most part the same in our upbringing compared to other groups we have a certain madness about us, to the normal everyday soldier we are crazy idiots for being perfectly willing to jump from high altitudes into combat. That we rely on drugs to be able to literally throw caution to the wind. But in truth we rely on a kind of inherited madness." He paused to take in their faces and to his approval they grinned at the thought of putting the other clones through the grueling training program on top of the regular schedule.

He spoke again "We see the man in front jump and decide to follow because everyone is in the same boat. We all have the ability to die, the airborne just adds a little flare to it. I am not a man of many promises as if I'm some kind of love sick child, but I will promise all of you this. The very first one out of the gunship in every operation will be me, and I will most certainly be the last off of the ground when the operation is complete. We will be landing under fire people so when I receive orders to ship out I expect everyone to be ready, that means weapons prepped and ready to go. Dismissed." As soon as he said that the PA system came alive "This is admiral Yularen to all officers of the GAR your attendance is requested on the bridge."

Naruto was on his way immediately, he walked briskly as he exited the hangar and headed to the aft section of the ship. He was about to round a corner when he bumped into someone. He looked up to apologize when he noted that he bumped into the Jedi that was limping from the day before he looked down to see that the Jedi was knocked on the floor. He smiled sheepishly and offered a helping hand to the Jedi. "Apologies sir, I should have heard that there was someone else coming down the corridor." The Jedi took the offered and brushed the apology off "No, no it was my fault. I should have sensed you coming down the hall…. Wait I thought that this was a clone army." Naruto responded by saluting then saying "Sir, Captain Naruto Brelor, sir. The only non-clone in the GAR." The Jedi nodded then bowed and said "Jedi knight Obi-wan Kenobi pleased to meet you."

Naruto then said "Feelings mutual sir." He tried to be on his way when Obi-wan stopped him by asking "You wouldn't happen to know where the bridge is do you? I've seemed to have lost my way." Naruto looked back and simply said "Follow me sir, we'll be there in no time." They walked to the bridge and made small talk on the way, obi-wan asked the occasional question about where was what in the ship and Naruto asked about the Jedi order itself. When the two did make it to the bridge four others were waiting for them, three Naruto recognized which were Rex, Cody, and Admiral Yularin the youngest seemed to be a Jedi and upon a closer look Naruto recognized him as the one in the stretcher.

"Ah general Kenobi, Captain Brelor good of you both to join us. Now for the reason that you all are here, the trade federation are planning an assault on the world of Bakura. The government has asked for protection via the GAR, we will be there in approximately one day so be prepared." Admiral Yularin said with a stony expression as he motioned to a holomap. Obi-wan was the first to speak "Well, the best way to defend the capitol city is by holding the Telaan valley to the south of it and funnel the droids in." the younger jedi wanted to say something but stopped when the older one said "No padawan, the troopers can handle this. Captain Brelor, how long do your men need to be ready for combat?" Naruto shot the bearded man a grin and said "To prepare, sir? Two minutes." The jedi master nodded, setting Naruto to the task.

One day later

Naruto stood on top of a few crates as he addressed his troops. "Soldiers, keep your wits about you. These droids seem dumb but they are not. They will shoot to kill, so I expect you all to do the same. Good luck, may Mandalore be with you." The paratroopers cheered and boarded the gunships, while Naruto caught stammer and said "You're with me." The young captain boarded the gunship last as their engines roared to life as one by one they departed from the hangar, and dived to the world below.

A/N this story goes out to Unnatural Reader for voicing his concerns with me killing Rex off in the dominos fall. There are a few things that I would like to address this story's plot was based on a Sir Chris Orr story called Band Of Brothers. Now before you cry plagerism I had asked is permission to base off this story off of his and he kindly granted me permission to do so. On another note my OC Stammer is based off of a real life WW1 soldier who had the same nick name. his name is in no way shape or form making fun of people who stutter. Onto a final note I am going through a bitch of writers block so please be patient with my other stories, thank you for reading and have a nice day.
