3rd Person POV

As all the men get aboard the ship they notice after a few moments that both Widow and Omega are in Omega's 'Bedroom', Hunter makes his way to tell Widow what the plan is but before he is able to make it he see's Omega climbing down, he notices behind the curtain Widow is watch the girl leave with a curious expression. Hunter notices Widow pull aside the thin fabric that is the door and watches with amusement. Everyone else watches with curiosity to their own expressions, wondering why Widow herself hasn't come down yet, Fives will occasionally glance towards his long time friend that is held up on the gunners seat, things didn't go as he planned back at Cid's, he needed to pull her aside and actually talk to her.

"No" Omega starts as she stands in front of Hunter with her arms crossed in front of her chest, Hunter kneels down to be eye level with Omega encouraging her to go on "Widow doesn't want to be bothered right now" Omega finishes, Widow couldn't help herself "Hey now I nev-" she tried to explain before Omega turns back to her with her index pointed up in the air mimicking Tech "I said no and that's final" Omega says sternly with a small pout on her face as she climbs back up and moves to sit next to the woman she is protecting.

Widow couldn't help but look taken aback, with her mouth slightly gaped open, she scans everyone just to see the shocked and stunned looks on all of her men that stood before her. She looks to Hunter and breathes out a laugh as they are making eye contact with each other "Oh dear, shes a mini me" Widow chuckles out and amazement as she once again looks towards everyone, Echo couldn't help the small smile that formed on his lips as he saw her climb back into Omegas room "So that's where the kid stays?" Fives ask "Yeah, thanks to you none of us can go see her now vod" Echo playfully but seriously remarks to him as he goes up to sit in the cockpit to assist Tech for take off.

Widows POV

A few hours pass by as were in hyper space, and once omega is asleep, I climb out of the gunners seat, so that way I can stretch my body for it was stiff being so cramped up for so long, gazing around noticing the slew of men that are resting in various parts of the ship, Tech was asleep on his work bench looking like he was tinkering before he fell asleep, Wrecker is in the corner with his head draped back against the wall with a loud snore that is coming from him, Hunter was no where to be seen in here but the door to the Navi room was closed so it was safe to assume he's in there to get away form the sensory overload out here. Then my attention falls to the cockpit, both Fives and Rex are sitting at the controls, making my way to them my confidence is beginning to return as I enter into the room.

"Alright men spill it" Smiling as they were caught off guard with my appearance, as I took a seat in the cockpit. Fives clears his throat "W-we-" his throat clears once more "Long story short, I had a blaster resistance vest under that armor and Rex helped me get to safe house off world to keep low" Fives explains to me, my arms are crossed while I have my left leg bouncing signaling my anxiety "I tried to get ahold of you in out private comm channel, I left numerous messages for you. But I can see why you didn't check it" I look to him with one of my eyebrows sending him a questioning look "You know since you thought I was dead and all" he finishes trying to lighten the mood with a chuckle. Looking over to him I couldn't help the small smile that appeared on my face when he tried to make light of the very dark situation, "I had also tried to use our private comm channel to let you know that he was okay, but someone decided to leave without telling me." Rex interjects with a smirk, looking over to him, I couldn't help but let out a chuckle " yeah I guess I deserve that, again Rex I'm really sorry I didn't stay listen and talk to you" I gave him a sincere look and helps that he knows that I am being very serious about this.

"If I'm being quite honest, I'm more relieved you weren't with us when everything happened" Rex explain softly to both Fives and I as he stands up. "By the way, how did you wind up with Cone Force 99?" He questions before he started to make his way out of the room. Chuckling to myself "It's quite a simple story. I was just assigned to them after the 501st" I explain calmly to the captain. With a sad look he glances back my way "So you were their newest member who had to go on a side mission when I worked with them" he states "Yeah... that would be me" I smile softly at him noticing he looks down but smiles softly at me again "My statement still remains so I'm more glad that you weren't with us when everything happened" he pauses as looks to me "Besides Hunter sounded like a lovesick loth cat when we would ask about his new teammate" Rex finishes with a playful smile "Wow Wid you really know how to make a first lasting impression with people" Fives pops off, in the distance we hear from the Navi room, a small clatter followed by muffled groans of irritation "huh is that so Rex?" I smile back playfully knowing Hunter can hear us loud and clear, with that last statement, the Navi room opens to reveal Hunter who is avoiding eye contact with all of us as he makes his way to the mini refresher that is on the ship.
