When it all goes to shit

Some background info:

AKA what happened when Talla and Alaia met

Previously on The Clone Wars:

"Echo. Tech. We got to get him out of here. Figure out how to unplug him from... from this mess."

Echo heard voices. Voices that were coming from above him.

He's used to this.

Except the voices don't sound like the scientists. No, no, they sound like... clones?

"What have they done to you?"

Was that Rex? 

"We... We have to get to the shuttle to escape the Citadel." 

"Echo, it's Rex. I'm here."

It was Rex.

"Rex? Y-you came back for me." The older clone smiled.

"Yes. Yes, I did," the clone captain said.

"What? What happened? Where am I?" Echo started to struggle. Rex tried to calm him down, to no avail. 

"It's okay, Echo. You're safe now," he said, trying to calm his brother down. "Just sit tight, trooper. You're going home."

And normally, this is where Echo's story really begins. But here, that isn't true.

Here, there's still one more person to complete the set.

"Alaia."

This stopped Rex in his tracks.

"What?"

"Alaia," Echo repeated. "She's here. You need to find her."

"Who's Alaia?" Talla asked.

"My sister." 

Echo turned his attention toward Rex. 

"They did things to her. She's in pain, Rex. Y-ou-" He coughed.

"Take it easy, Echo. Slow down." He didn't listen.

"You need to find her."

Crosshair stared at Echo and Rex.

"You realize that this is gonna take longer if we rescue her," he said.

Rex shook his head.

"We need to get her."

Alaia looked around. She was in a hospital.

Next to her was a bed. And on that bed, looked like a very cyborg-ed version of her brother.

"E-echo?"

"Y-yeah. It's me, Laia."

"It hurts."

"I know."

"Hate to break up this very touching reunion, but who exactly are you?"

Alaia looked over at the doorway. There stood a group of 4 people who she assumed were clones who didn't really look like clones. Also with them was a female in clone armor.

"Alaia. The female clone."

The female with them raised an eyebrow.

"So I'm not the only one," she muttered.

Alaia raised an eyebrow.

"You're a clone?" She asked.

"Yep. My name's Talla," the other female said. "This is Hunter, Wrecker, Tech, and Crosshair. We rescued you from Skako Minor."

"Thank you," Alaia said. "And thank force that the stupid long-necks created a person that understands the pain of living with only brothers!"

"Finally!" Talla exclaimed, smiling. "I love these idiots, but they can be really annoying sometimes."

The two girls grinned. 

This seemed like the start of a friendship. One that would cause a lot of chaos, migraines, and paintball. 

A/N:
