--Building a New life --Tech x Reader Bad Batch

Chapter 22 --The big break | Infiltration --

You turned over as you heard the thump of boots hitting the floor. 'Hmmm' you muttered, rubbing your eyes and getting your hair out of your face. --Wrecker-- you think, hearing the thumping move out the door.

"Good morning" Omega says walking over to your bed, "Hunter wants us to get going soon".

"Why didn't anyone wake me up?" You ask with a Yawn, swinging your legs over the lip of the wall bunk. Your boots were resting against the wall just next to you and you began to slip them on as Omega explains.

"Well, he just spoke with Tech and Rex has requested us to come more urgently".

"Great" you reply, your boots finally on, and your mind beginning to awaken "So when does he want me back on Milovaný?"

"Soon as you get your armor on" Hunter said coming in through the doorway. He had heard Omega speaking with someone and assumed you had gotten up. Rex had continued to contact them about the mission he had for them and the urgency had become more pressing overnight. "Rex has sent us the flight plan we need to follow but there has been another development on his end." Hunter explains "just suit up and we will be flying out shortly".

You nod in agreement even while you stared sleepily in his direction.

Omega helped you a bit with which pieces to put on first and you got dressed quickly. Both of you, as well as the others, were all still sluggish and sleepy but the clones were already waking up and becoming more aware and focused.

Your night terror last night had left you feeling sluggish and you did wonder how they had trained themselves to wake up this quickly. --Guess working in war zones will do that to you-- you decide as you finally close your storage container and pick up your helmet.

"Ready?" Omega asked with a smile on her face. You could see that she was slower to wake up like you were, but her excitement was starting to build.

"Ready as I'm going to get" you chuckle walking beside her into the middle area.

Echo and Tech were already in the cockpit, with the latters coffee cup carefully balanced on the dash. Hunter was standing near them, and Wrecker was eating breakfast on the wall seat.

"Ready?" Hunter turned and asked you. --Just like Omega-- you chuckle and reply "Yes Captain". It had sort of slipped out and it felt odd to not just call him Hunter, but you hadn't been able to stop yourself.

Hunter had smiled with a sly grin at your statement and both Echo and Wrecker grinned. Tech didn't seem to react at all. You felt your face get red, but apologizing for addressing him by his rank would be even weirder than using it.

"Well, here's the coordinates to the exact location we will be flying to and landing" Hunter finally said, handing over your holopad.

"Rex has emphasized an importance on stealth so we will be staggering our ships to help avoid suspicion"

You nod, it makes sense for you all to meet there instead of flying together. Draws less attention, and your ship is smaller so you go through a separate checkpoint when entering the planet.

"Just make sure you meet us there, and you don't get followed. However you do it. The Empire still believes we are dead and I'd like to keep it that way".

"I've got some ideas" you reply, "When do you want me to fly out?"

"We've got a few more diagnostics to check" Echo replies to you.

"Nothing important" Tech comments, turning back to his desk.

"Last time you said that, we crashed" Echo reminded.
