I rushed through the hallways of the Resolute. Euphoria, Kara and Naz had begged the generals to let them go with me to Kamino and they had approved. So I dragged them behind me. All of us were already in our new armor. Kara and Euphoria had painted theirs in a grey color. Like Woffle, Sinker and Boost they had somewhere on their armor a wolf painted on. I wore the typical orange markings which indicated my belonging towards the 212th Attack Battalion and to Cody.Apart from that my armor stood out from their normal clone trooper outfits because of my kama around my hips and the double pauldrons around my shoulders. On my right shoulder pad I had painted the aubresh number 99 as a symbol to my heritage and to honor my dear friend.
My sisters were surprised at my marking at first but quickly followed suit. As a homage to our brother all of us had the number 99 on our right shoulders now. Just one in blue, one in orange and two in grey. But apart from that our armor was completely different.
On my left shoulder flaunts the symbol of the Jedi. And I was proud of wearing this symbol. It may be true that I was a soldier of the republic but my devotion and everlasting respect was with the Jedi. And I was sure that it will forever be. A long time ago Master Ti had protected my sisters and me when we were just babies. Skywalker gave me a change to become an ARC trooper and Master Kenobi even gave me a place in his battalion and a new rank. They all had trust in me to become what I was destined to be. What we were destined to be.
As we walked through the hallways of the Resolute I noticed their proud smiles over their new armor. Kara and Euphoria laughed as they haven't laughed in a long time and something lifted from my shoulders.
Seeing them achieving everything they had always dreamt about made me feel so proud. And that's what I was. Proud and Happy. And very tired.
The last night we hadn't slept at all. We had laid on my bed and had talked till the morning. We talked about everything and nothing really. But Kara and Euphoria had explained to me their tranfer to Woffle's battalion and how it all came together.
When I had laid in the med bay on Coruscant Kara had befriended the fellow clone troopers and even apologized to them. And after a while she had brought Euphoria along with her. General Koon was impressed with Karas flying and Euphorias excellent bombing and heavy weaponry skills. So he had talked to them and Skywalker about joining the Wolfpack. At first Woffle wasn't that thrilled but when was he ever. So he accepted them and they had already even joined them on missions.
After I had woken up they didn't want to confront me like that and so they had waited for a good opportunity to tell me. And after Cody had wanted me in his battalion they had decided to do the things properly and get transferred as well and even painted their armor grey.
We made it to the hangar where Cody, Boil and Waxer already waited for us. Cody noticed the dark circles under our eyes from the sleepless night prior but he didn't say a word.
"Finally! We waited half an hour for you!" Boil exclaims and looks me up and down. "Nice armor!" Waxer winks at me and I smile back at him. "I'm sorry that you had to wait!" I apologized. Naz leaned lazily next to Kara and reverse. They seemed to fall asleep any minute and even Euphoria had troubles keeping her eyes open.
"Punctuality was never one of your strong points." Cody laughs and looks towards me. "Hey... I am punctual all the time. When was I not punctual?" I demand to know and tap with my finger on his chest.
"Oh, how about the seven weeks you slept and didn't come to training?" Cody smiles at me and raises an eyebrow. "You can't count that, I was ill!" I defended myself. He rolls his eyes and smiles about my little outburst.
