In a galaxy teetering on the edge of turmoil, Widow, a skilled and stealthy operative, found herself working alongside Clone troopers. While she preferred the company of clones over the Jedi, her expertise in espionage and her unwavering loyalty made her the Republic's unsuspected eyes and ears on the battlefield. Widow was entrusted with ensuring the troopers were in strategic positions during battles and was closely associated with the 212th and 501st divisions, particularly with ARC troopers Fives and Echo.

The revelation that Echo was presumed dead during a mission at the Citadel brought Widow and Fives even closer together. Fives, driven by determination, sought to reveal the truth about the inhibitor chips placed in the clones, putting him on a collision course with danger. Widow stood by his side, defending and protecting him, but tragically, Fives' life was cut short in his pursuit of justice.

Captain Rex had been the one to tell widow about fives passing away, obviously upset, aggravated, irritated all the emotions you can think of. That was how Widow was feeling in that moment when she found out fives died. In that moment, she knew she could no longer serve with the 501st.

Without any word to both Captain Rex, nor general Skywalker, widow had requested to be moved to work with a new battalion. She couldn't handle letting her emotions spiral out of control like that, it went against everything she was taught from a very young age. She had cracked once before, when her friend echo had passed away at the citadel.

When she was given her new assignment by the supreme Chancellor himself, she had decided to add a blue ribbon onto her left arm underneath her orange, one as a tribute for her time serving with the 212th at the 501st battle battalion. Little did she know that she would be in for a whole different experience with her new squadron of men.

In the midst of her reminiscing about everything that has happened to her so far, she did not realize that she was no longer alone, and that she had company from her new battalion of 4 men?

"Ahem.." The man with the skull tattooed cleared his throat enough for her to snap out of her trance and forward it to look at all of the four men that stand before her.

As Widow stands to properly meet her new team, She noted all the men in all their different unique appearances. one was a fairly large man, she can instantly tell that he was the brute force of the group, the next man that stood next to him was particularly interesting due to the fact he wore glasses, and was continuously on his data pad, next one that widow laid her eyes on caused her to take in a quick sharp breath to avoid her further embarrassment, this man had a unique half skull tattoo across one side of his face, his hair was in no means standard military regulation but widow instantly knew that regulation was out the window with this batch. Then, lastly, she turned her gaze to the taller, slender man with the silver hair and a cross hair across his eye.

"Sorry about that gentleman it's been a long past few days and normally people can't sneak up on me. I guess there's a first for everything." She chuckled as she stood up from her sitting position.

" well Introductions are in order I suppose, I'm widow. No, I am not here to lead You men. I am more here to offer support in aspects that you guys do lack, which just happens to be the espionage part of the military aspect." Widow said with a slight smirk

The clone with the skull tattoo stepped forward to Widow to get a better look just to make sure there was no deception going on.

He sigh "With all do respect, Thank the maker you're not assigned to us as a General, because we typically just do our own thing, and hardly follow orders."

Widow couldn't help but smile slightly at that remark.

He then walks towards widow more to stop in front of her and turns his body slightly to gesture to all the men in his company.

"That's Crosshair he's not a man of many words, but if you need a precise hit, he's your man" gesturing to the clone who looks like he rather be anywhere else but here.

"Over there with his head buried in his Holo pad is Tech, anytime, you need something to be encrypted, broken into or a shortage, he's the one we go to" the skull face man gestered over to the one called Tech who briefly looked up and with a slight head nod to acknowledge your presence.

As she's acknowledging techs present back, she doesn't realize that the one who is standing beside her with the skull tattoo will lean down close to her ear.

"He's also knowledgeable about almost everything so if you get him into one of his topics that he knows about, he will talk your ear off best to avoid that if you don't want that happening" he whispered into Widows ear.

As he leans way to introduce his last brother, widow, looks up at him with her brown eyes.

"Noted, thanks for the tip" she offers him a small smile showing off her dimples slightly as she follows his gaze to the brute of the group.

The man beside her had to hold back a smirk at her comment, so that way he can keep introducing his team.

"Finally we have Wrecker, as I'm sure you have already pieced together, he's the man that can lift just about anything he can set his mind to" he explained while gesturing to him, the Brute force of a man waves excitedly.

"Huh, I wonder if he could pry out the walker that crawled up General Mundi's ass" Widow whispered to herself, earning a side glance from the gentleman who is standing beside her.

"Lastly..." the man stepped to face Widow "I'm sergeant Hunter, but Hunter is fine."

Widow eyed him up and down closely

"And tell me Sergeant what's your special ability?" Widow asked as she got in his personal space

"Heh well I have heightened senses, I can pick up soil from whatever planet we are on, I can tell if there is a natural disaster coming, what animals are on the planet, if there are any threats coming, I can usually detect if something is to happen before any alarm can come on to the public..." he leans down to where only she can hear him once more

"I also have heightened hearing, so that comment about general Mundi... yeah I heard you..." Widow turned her head sharply, slightly panicking as she eyes Hunters face over with her eyebrows raised in shock, not noticing how close their faces were to each other. Hunter smirks at her and raises an eyebrow at her.

"I couldn't agree more about that Walker comment" he whispered lowly to make sure she was the only one who heard him.

As he stands back to his upright position away from her, Hunter could tell she was taken aback but also amused at the same time as she turned to face her new unit.

"Well gentlemen... Let's get to work!" Widow says as she claps her hands after she's done talking.
