"Your dad?" Echo questioned as he raised a brow at the girl. She opened her mouth to respond but she was quickly cut off. "I heard about what happened!" Anakin said as he approached the injured girl. The battle was over and the 501st was beginning to load up the ship to return to Coruscant. "Everything alright, earth girl?" He asked with a slight grin as he crouched down to her level. Kira forced a laugh. "Oh yeah I'm just peachy, dingus." Anakin rolled his eyes playfully. "She took a shot to her arm but I think she'll be alright. It wasn't too bad when I finished with it." Kix informed the general. "You're a tough girl. I'm sure you'll be fine." Anakin added . Kira groaned as she tilted her head back and rested it against the cold metal wall of the ship. "Hey," Fives said as he approached Echo who had been standing with Kira ever since she had been shot. "Me and some of the other boys were thinking about heading to 79's tonight when we get back to Coruscant. Are you in?" Echo looked at Kira and then at Fives. "I'm not sure." "What's 79's?" Kira asked as she rested her eyes. The boys looked at each other. "It's a bar. It's usually mostly clones but other people will show up from time to time." Fives told her. "Is there alcohol there?" "Yes. It is a bar." "God yes. I'll go with you if you're okay with that." She said. Echo and Fives shared a look again. "But Kira, you're injured." Echo replied with concern. "So? I wanna get wasted after a mission. Sue me." "She's got a point." Fives said with a shrug. "Fine. If she goes I'll go too." Echo finally said and Fives grinned as he playfully punched his brother's arm. "Alright. See you both then."

Kira managed to stand with the help of Echo as the gun ship soared back to Coruscant. "I'm okay." She muttered, signaling to Echo to let her go. "I got this." She added, trying to stand on her own. Hesitantly, Echo removed his hands from her. She took in a deep shaky breath as she stabled herself. That's when Rex's com link lit up. "That's odd." He muttered. "What is?" Anakin asked as he looked over to Rex. "It doesn't say who this transmission is from." Rex replied, signaling to the illuminated com. Anakin shrugged. "Answer it. Maybe it's just someone on the council or something who got a new com." Rex hesitated but answered the call, waiting to hear the voice on the other end. "Uh, hello?" He called out. No answer. Instead it was just radio static. It grew louder and louder until it was the only sound the men on the ship could hear. "What is that noise?" Fives asked as he covered his ears. "Rex turn it off." Anakin ordered. "I'm trying sir, but it won't turn off." Rex replied. Slowly, the static faded and music could be heard. None of them recognized the music except Kira. But she didn't looked fazed. Her stare was blank into the wall. Everybody Wants to Rule the World played almost clearly with the occasional static interruption. Suddenly a loud crack was heard and the music stopped. There was silence for a bit as the men exchanged glances and then a voice, clouded by static, but still clear as day spoke from the com link. "My name is cadet Chelsea Anderson and I'm assisted by Captain Cameron Beckett. Where is Kira Stacey? The woman who flew this plane." Rex opened his mouth to respond to the voice but someone else replied for him. "Chelsea you may want to calm down." Another voice answered, this one young and male. It was like they were all listening in on a conversation clouded by radio static. "Where the hell is she. She's my best friend and I know you know where she is" the female voice, Chelsea, came again. "Ma'am." There was a new voice now, older and male. "I'm sorry to tell you this, but miss Stacey didn't make it. She was pronounced dead as soon as we found her."

"Kira." Rex said as the mysterious transmission cut out. All the men turned to her. "What the hell was that?" He asked or more of demanded. Kira looked up to face him, she had been staring at the ground. A stream of crimson blood ran down her face from her nose. It trailed over her lips and down to her chin. It dripped onto her clothing, staining it. "Chelsea Jane Anderson" she replied, her voice was low and raspy like she needed air. "Captain Cameron Steven Beckett." She added. She was naming everyone in the transmission. "Officer Nicolas Bill Wheeler." "The hell is she doing?" Fives asked as he watched her. "I- I don't know." Rex replied as he watched her closely. "October third, nineteen eighty seven. Twelve twenty six pm. Three miles due south of Edwards Air Force Base, California, United States of America. Earth dimension three point one one two zero." "Do you have any idea what she's talking about?" Rex asked Anakin who seemed to be just as concfused as everyone else. "Not a clue." Kira's eyes met Anakin's. She blinked once before she spoke once more. "Goodnight." Was all she said before she fell to the ground, unconscious and out cold yet again.
