Fun and games in the 501st

Injuries (kixshot)

The Republic were losing. Losing hard.
(y/n) was fully convinced she was going to die.
For the first time in her life her layed there and accepted it.
"GENERAL!"
Headshot ran in front of her and fired a round of shots destroying multiple droids. He then grabbed (y/n)'s lightsaber and slashed a magma guard in half completely unaware about what was going on.
That'll be One story to tell. Headshot, Jedi extraordinaire. A shuttle containing the other members of Creshda came down behind Them. All of them seemed rather stunned at what the hell he was trying to do.

Headshot then decided to ditch the glorified glowstick and continue firing blaster shots.
"GET HER OUT!" he shouted, as Rex and Kix ran forward to drag the Jedi back.
"HEADSHOT COME ON!" Kix shouted.
Headshot stayed rooted to the spot. No one had ever seen him this serious before. And Kix didn't like it.
"HEADSHOT, NOW!" Rex tried shouting but it was no use.
"You'll get blasted out of the sky before you get anywhere!" he shouted back, "I'm staying!"
Kix tried to grab him.
"YOU'LL DIE!"
"THEN LET ME DIE!" He shoved his foot into Kix's crutch and kicked him back into the shuttle; this medic was too kriffing attractive to let him die.

The pilot reluctantly started ascending the ship.
The others didn't really know what to do. Kix was kneeled over and they had to leave.
"not on my watch" Kix muttered through gritted Teeth.
He grabbed a sheild smashed his fist on the door button and jumped out.
"KIX NO!" (y/n) screamed but it was too late. The door was shut.
"LAND THE SHUTTLE!" she screamed while still in Rex's arms.
"GENERAL WE CAN'T!" Fives shouted back.
The Jedi was getting hysterical now, "I DON'T CARE LAND THE SHIP"
"(y/n) SHUT UP!"
Everybody went silent. Rex hated shouting at her but he had no choice. As the girl turned her hear Rex tried to keep a solid expression but he couldn't.
"NOT EVERYBODY WILL STAY ALIVE IN THIS WAR! I JUST LET MY BEST MEDIC JUMP OUT THERE WITH NO GUARANTEE HE WILL COME BACK! NOT JUST A FRIEND MY BROTHER! RIGHT NOW YOU HAVE TWO BROKEN LEGS AND A DISLOCATED SHOULDER AND WE CAN'T LAND THIS SHIP! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME!"
(y/n) gave no answer. She couldn't.
Rex discreetly held her hand tighter as some sort of apology. She was too much of an idealist. If Rex had his way she wouldn't be out here at all.
It wasn't easy for anyone to swallow but they had no choice.

It wasn't long before the defiant half clone was shot in the shoulder. Then he heard:
"KIX NO!"
He couldn't believe it. Not even a kick in the balls would get this medic to stay put.
"KIX YOU KRIFFING IDIOT"
Kix put the shield in front of them, "I won't let you die here alone!"
"Did all the heat of being hot go to your head?!"
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!
"ya didn't answer the question." he smirked.
Kix didn't even bother to look confused.
He got shot in the side of his chest. This was truly meant to be a last stand.

It didn't take long for the shield to break and Headshot got hit a third time. He fell to his knees and continued to wildly shoot. This wasn't how this was meant to happen. He wanted to grow old and stay with Kixy.
And Kixy wanted to stay with him.
In a split second decision, Kix set his blaster to stun and shot him in the back. However it was him who felt suddenly numb and dizzy. His head connected with Headshot's almost lifeless body and the world closed up into darkness.

----

"When is he gonna wake up?!"
"give him time! Kriffing hell!"
"You said he would be awake now!"
"Yes he will be! Chill out!"
Kix opened one eye to see the familiar seven faces of his squad.
"See? He's awake."
As Jesse and (y/n) started bickering Kix tried to backtrack. He was currently in a medbay bed, he passed out while fighting, he was trying to protect-
Kix's eyes widened and he tried to bolt up. A searing pain ran down his Spine.
"nanananana you lay down," Rex pushed Kix back into the bed, "a droid shot you in the spine. You need time to heal from it. Thank Hardcase. He stress ate a bowl of sugar and he became so vigilant he saw you breathing from ten metres away."
"ya welcome! :D"
"What about headshot?"
The rest of them stopped their talking.
"he got shot three times," Tup looked down, he couldn't give him eye contact, "we don't know if he's going to make it..."
He didn't hear the rest of what Tup said, the world started spinning again. He couldn't be dead he couldn't be dead he can't be dead he needs to be alive he left the transport to save him he let him down.
Jesse grabbed his face "Kix Kix stay with me! Look Headshot is fine he's fine he's on life support currently but he's fine! Kix!"
They all knew what was actually on Kixs mind. And ther was no hiding it anymore.
"We know Headshot is a changeling," Rex broke the Ice, "his body had reverted back to its original form. Don't worry. Sky walker is keeping it under wraps the best he can."
"Thank you..." Kix was barely able to get out.

Kix pretended to sleep. The others would clear out if they thought he needed beauty sleep. He had already eyed up a pair of crutches at the side of the room. He just had to wait.
So naturally Jesse fell asleep in the chair next to him.
Perfect -_-.
He layed there staring at the clock, trying to figure out what stage of sleep he was in. During this time he was sussing out what he could move. His legs and lower back were a no go, the only thing he could control was his arms. Moving was going to be difficult, let alone dumb. But doable.

After a few more painstakingly boring hours, Kix attempted to make a break for it. He pried back the covers and squished his way along like a newborn baby; he also flopped into the floor like one.
Maybe that's why Headshot was so off the rails. Getting dropped out of a growth tube would be a logical explanation.
Jesse was a heavy sleeper. He may as well had been dead to the world, even with Kix's loud "FEK IT!" as he smacked his perfect nose across the bed bar. He managed to prop himself up onto the crutches and he dragged himself to the door. The nerve pain was horrific but he didn't care he was a medic on a mission.

Thanks to the obnoxious bleeping of the life support equipment, Kix found his clone in very little time. He hobbled into the room and pretty much fell on the seat next to him. It was scary to see him so still and silent. He would usually fidget around in his sleep and fall out of the bed; his high score was twenty seven. But what was stranger was seeing his true form. It was like seeing the real him.
"You're gonna be okay right? You ain't giving up on me now are ya?" he pushed his hand down the covers to hold his hand. To his surprise, his hands were still presenting as human. It makes some sort of sense, he's been masking for so long his body would make it habit to revert back.

Much calmer than before, the medic pulled the blanket back up and collapsed back down.
"You're gonna be okay, you loonatic." he quietly giggled and rested his head close to his cheek. Even if he was himself or a decoy clone he still had the softest little face you would just want to-
"Kix!" Jesse burst through the door angry, "the hell are you doing?!"
He shot his head back up and shouted in pain.
"ow 😭😭😭. Don't scare me my neck is painful enough!"
"then what the hell are you doing out of bed?! Get back in now!"
Like a stroppy little child Kix slobbed out of the room. Little did he know there was a grinning little changeling watching him as he left.
Sleep well little Kixy boi.

- quick note. I'm thinking of taking the kixshot stuff in a different book after someone suggested it to me. Also dya wanna actually see the man?
