The Rising

Leadership

Hunter glanced at Damali as the ship docked in General Plo's hanger.

"Is all space travel like this?" Damali asked as she gripped the arms of her chair. Hunter smiled slightly before he reached next to him and held her hand, "it will be better once we land" Hunter whispered.

Hunter caught Bly's glance who gave him a thumbs up, He resisted the urge to shoot the reg as the ship set down rather harshly causing Damali to let out a slight scream as she gripped Hunters hand tightly.

He winced slightly before he caught sight of Omega who was shaking like a leaf. Infact most of the ship was shaking not just the people, Hunter glared at Bly who was hanging on for dear life as well.

"Hang on" Alya yelled from the cockpit.

"No kidding" Hunter replied as he hung on for dear life as well.

No more than a second he said that the ship hit the hanger floor harshly causing a loud screeching sound to be heard as it skidded to a stop.

"That's twice we almost died because of her flying" Tech grumbled before he caught the glare from Bly, shutting him up instantly.

Hunter chuckled slightly as he undid his restraints then helped Damali with hers before helping Omega.

"Are we alive?" Omega asked clutching her stomach.

"Yes we are alive...... barely" Hunter replied as he ruffled her hair before he went to help the women get off the ship.

Once everyone got off the ship Hunter spotted Wreaker and Tech talking to the pink Twilek sisters who giggled at their conversation.

"Oh great, first I have kids on the ship now I have a bunch of force sensitive women," Wolfe hissed at Bly who shrugged "what's the matter vod, nervous because they are women or because of what they are wearing?".

Wolfe blushed hard as he caught sight of not only the women but also his men who were heavily distracted by them.

"HEY GET BACK TO WORK!!!!" Wolfe yelled making the clones jump out of their skin before getting back to work.

Bly laughed at them before Wolfe fixated his glare on him, "get them away from my men" .

"Relax vod, your men are some of the honorable and most trust worthy there are" Bly replied.

"No they are trustworthy but after the Tano's kid trashing almost every astrometric on the ship they have a heavier workload than normal" Wolfe muttered.

"Whoa.........which one?" Bly asked

Wolfe glared at him not amused "shut. Up"

Hunter smiled at their conversation before he almost ran into a familiar form.

"Sorry" Damali muttered blushing hard as Hunter smiled slightly larger than before as she moved past him.

"You like her?" Asked a small voice behind him.

He turned around in time to see Omega smiling at him as she and Alya helped Nat off the ship.

Nat looked grim as she looked only at the ground, her hand over her heart with a small piece of paper in her hand. The weight of what happened fell on his shoulders a thousand times when he remembered why she had that look.

"Hunter?" Bly asked as Hunter tried to make his way out of the hanger.

Hunter ignored them as he found his way to a corridor that had a viewing window. His head pounding as he tried to block out his environment and the scream of his brother as he passed away.
