Star Wars x ATLA Chapter 7:Metamorphisis

Chapter 7: Metamorphosis

Activity Log: Grand Army of The Republic, Doom Legion

Situation: Commander Doom, Battalion Commander of the Doom Legion, now reports to General Iroh, the Assistant Commanding General of Doom Legion (next to Jedi sisters Tiplee and Tiplar) in the war against the Fire Nation-Separatist Alliance. His nephew, Prince Zuko, is still being held as a POW in a secure but humane cell, per his uncle's orders.

Mission: Protecting a strategic river that, if seized, would increase enemy supply lines, and allow for easier passage to the coast.

Location: Medium strength forest outpost twenty-five miles from deserted village of Taku, home to a lone herbalist institute. The sole inhabitant, an elderly lady with a large cat, has proven to be at least friendly with Republic forces but prefers visits only when troopers need urgent healing.

Time: Four weeks since the Battle of the North Pole

General Iroh, who was tired from the previous days work, smiled as he sat down behind his metal desk to drink his daily morning tea before going out to conduct the uniform inspection. He couldn't help but recall his first days as a new Private in the Fire Nation Army, and chuckled as he remembered how his Staff Sergeant had berated him when his gut had caused the armor on his torso to not fit properly.

"Such simpler times those were then," he thought to himself. "I might've enjoyed them more if I'd known what was to come over the world later in my life."

Hearing a knock on the door, he called for the one knocking to enter, and saw Commander Doom with another clone trooper.

"Come in, troopers," Iroh smiled, beckoning them to his desk. Commander Doom and trooper entered, coming to attention at the General's desk.

"At ease, troopers," Iroh said. "What news do you bring to me this morning?"

Commander Doom was puzzled as to how their Commanding General could be so casual sometimes but put that concern aside and delivered the report.

"The troopers on guard duty last night have nothing to report, General," Commander Doom recounted, showing the General the logbook from the previous night. "As of right now, all outpost systems are operating at peak efficiency. The only noteworthy discrepancies are two AT-TEs having joint malfunctions, but I have a team of mechanics attending to that as we speak."

"Very good, Commander," General Iroh smiled. "And you, trooper. What news do you have for me today?"

The other trooper, who was a Corporal, came to attention and stated his answer. "I came to inform you that one of the troopers in my squad, Kenneth, is done with his healing appointments with the herbalist from last week's accident. He is back in shape and ready for full duty again, sir."

"Ah! That's great news!" General Iroh replied happily. "Thank you for updating me, Corporal...what was it again?"

"Corporal Robertson, sir," Corporal Robertson replied, and he saluted the General.

General Iroh arched an eyebrow. "What are you doing?"

Corporal Robertson had a confused expression under his helmet. Wasn't this the proper courtesy to pay to one's superior officer, especially the Commanding General? Just then, he saw Commander Doom clear his throat, and he looked to see Commander Doom pointing at the ceiling above them. The Corporal cringed as he realized his mistake and apologized to the General before about-facing and walking out of the room.
