A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
STAR WARS
THE MASTER'S APPRENTICE
War!
The clone wars are nearing it's end,
With heroes on both sides winning victories for their
cause, the Jedi lose numbers more than ever
Planets fall to the greed of the CIS and perish under lack
of supplies.
On a mercy mission to deliver supplies to the planet of Adaill V
led by Jedi padawan Jayce Adar and a squad of clone troopers
disaster strikes for Jedi master Obi-Wan Kenobi.
The CIS forces have let the group past their blockade to deliver
Supplies to the people, even though suspicious, the group continues
Tensions are running high, Obi-Wan and his former padawan Anakin
Skywalker, who now has his own padawan, Ahsoka Tano, have just
defeated the CIS forces on Tythe and are now preparing to return to
Corusant to rescue the Chancellor, who has been kidnapped by the CIS
cyborg leader General Grievous, but what is coming up will change the
Galaxy for good, nothing will ever be the same…
CHAPTER ONE: PROLOGUE
"We request permission to land on Adaill V to deliver our cargo, may we proceed?" the captain of the red with white consular-class cruiser approaching the CIS blockade said, the low trembling in his voice betraying his nervousness .
"State your cargo and business," the droid said with a dull voice, of course, he didn't realize they had already told their business on the planet, but droids were dumb, Fence, or RT- 1174, thought, it was the first thing you learned as little clone on Kamino.
"Our cargo is food and medical supplies, we are here to deliver it to the people of Adaill V," Fence waited and blinked, the HUD in his clone-helmet suddenly displayed the ships schematics, he blinked again, concluding that the ship, the Runner, could handle a possibly needed sprint to the planet's surface in case the CIS was going to try and stop them.
"Eh, it checks out, you've been granted permission to deliver food and medical supplies to the inhabitants of Adaill V, but only that, no weapons or anything like that, a group of droids will join you to see to it," the Neimoidian that had taken the droid's place broke the transmission.
"Well then, they let us through, I didn't see that coming," the clone commander said to the padawan behind him.
"Weird, I couldn't feel whether he was tricking us or not, I guess we'll find out though," Jayce let his hand glide over the metal cylinder hanging on his belt as to relax himself.
"Or maybe they were just afraid of the commander, maybe the T-shaped helmet scares them," Jagi, one of the clones, said joking.
"Droids don't feel, or think, that's why they lose, Jagi, of all the people, you should know," Atin, another one of the clones said ignoring the way Jagi had said it and obviously disapproving the joke.
"Commander Fence, see if you can contact master Kenobi, I have a bad feeling about this, thing is, I don't sense any danger," everyone looked at Jayce, not understanding what he meant.
"Wha?".
"Someone once told me, the danger you don't sense, is usually the most dangerous,".
"See, that's smart, unlike you," Jagi said to Atin while Fence bowed over the control panel to contact the Jedi master.
Fence rose up again "Weird…".
"What's weird?".
"I can't reach him, he's only two parsecs away,… they're jamming us!" he then cried out.
"Relax commander, the blockade might just be interfering with our signal because of the number of ships,"Atin said as serious as ever.
"Well, it's possible, just be on alert guys, it's always dangerous on forest planets, I've learned that over the last years," Jayce said with a fain smile coming from Fence, he had been with Jayce on Felucia, Endor and Kashyyyk.
"Get that food to the villagers first, the diseases here are not that bad, medicines can wait for now," the clone with green and white armor, Fence, nodded and yelled something at the clones who were taking the supplies off board.
"Sir?".
"Yes?".
"I am slightly worried about this…".
"Me too, the CIS would never let this happen, Grievous would go crazy," Jayce held his lightsaber firmly in his hand and looked up, of course he couldn't see the blockade, but it did feel like it.
"It would be nice if those bugs didn't keep bothering me," Fence waved his hand annoyed to force the bugs away but it didn't help.
"I have no problem with them," the bugs left him alone.
"Well they don't come crawling up your helmet,".
"Why don't you just seal the suit, if gas doesn't breach your suit then I don't see how bugs can,".
Fence sighed, the kid was right, he hadn't thought of that, it was just too simple to think of.
After a while Jayce left the Runner and went for a walk with the commander.
"And, have you been able to reach master Kenobi yet?" Jayce asked while stepping over a fallen tree.
"No, I'm relatively sure we're being jammed, no channel works,".
"That's not good, those droids are really working on my nerves,".
"My trigger finger is eager to go to work, I'd simply love to shoot one right now, but I guess that wouldn't work to good for us now…".
"Yeah, they'd be chasing us all over the planet, stupid though, we destroy lots of them on the battlefield and now they do nothing, but if we destroy one here, we're dead," another tree blocked their path and they turned around.
Suddenly Jayce stopped "It's a dead end, let's go back to the Runner," he already turned around.
"It's not a dead end, it leads to the village, don't lie to me," Fence hated it when people lied to him.
"But I'm not lying, the Force tells me that it's a dead end, that we should go back," no, the kid was definitely not lying, he was serious, judging by the padawan's face.
"Well, always listen to the Jedi I say, let's go back then," an uneasy feeling approached Fence.
"Admiral Talzel, what are your orders?" the droid in the hologram said to him.
Talzel looked at his two green hands and shook his head, gesturing something at another Neimoidian on the bridge.
"Set up a trap, after nightfall an explosion will occur in the village near them, they will have to go through the forest to get there, place mines, set up snipers, rocket launchers will also take care of the Jedi, but snipers are the best in this, do not underestimate the Jedi, he may yet be a padawan, but lately those have become very good to," Talzel remembered his encounter with Anakin Skywalker during the first battle of Geonosis, and then a few days before on the planet Kaismir.
"Yes sir, it will happen,".
"T-8975?".
"Yes sir,".
"Wipe them out, all of them…".
"As you wish, sir," the hologram faded away.
Talzel watched the bridge satisfied, the line made him feel invincible, it gave him the strength, and made sure the droids understood their task.
The sun was seconds away from disappearing from the horizon, Jayce blinked while watching the beautiful scene and relaxed.
It would go under in
Three…
Two…
One…
Zero-BOOM!
Jayce's mental shield rose up immediately in response to the explosion that had occurred.
The timing was perfect, almost too perfect, he stood up and ran back to the ship.
"Sir, are you okay?" Fence yelled at the padawan that came running.
"Yes, but you need to st-".
"Some of my men already left to the village," Fence said almost apologizing.
"No, we need to get them back, it's some sort of trap!".
"And that's exactly why they went there…" again almost apologizing.
Jayce started running in the direction of the village.
"Wait, where are you going?" Fence started running to.
"Maybe we can catch up with them, they just left right?".
"Yes, but…".
"Then they can't be far!" he shook his head, Jayce, just like any kid, was too quick for him too follow, they'd be walking right into the trap.
"And I know we are going right into the trap, I just don't want to lose any men!" only thing worse than an seventeen year-old kid is a seventeen year-old kid that can read minds, Fence thought shaking his head.
"well, if you say so sir!" he would follow Jayce anywhere though, his master had taught him well.
They then arrived at an open spot in the forest, surrounded by hill, and three clone corpses lying in the middle.
"This is the trap, I bet there are snipers everywhere, I was a fool to trust the CIS, of course they wouldn't let us bring supplies here without trying to kill us,".
A typical Jedi response, Fence thought, a Jedi blames himself for whatever had happened and would then try to repair the damage done.
Good thing too, most Jedi were capable of doing that, but he'd never seen Jayce without his master and thus didn't know what he'd do on his own.
Fence grabbed his blasters and started shooting to the top of the hills while Jayce activated his lightsaber.
