Commander of Wolves

Chapter Ten: Mandalore in Peril

A/N: Thanks to @Ssmith_2005611 for the song suggestion. 

Plo-Koon has been called back to Coruscant for an emergency Council meeting. Leaving Nya and Wolffe to command the 104th. But that arrangement does not last long. Soon after the Jedi Council convened, they called the entire 104th back to Coruscant. Something that the entire legion, as well as its commanding officers, are confused about. After all, since Nya became a general, and since she stayed with the 104th, whenever Plo has needed to go back to Coruscant, Nya was simply left in charge of the legion. And vice versa.

But this time, it's different. While standing together on the bridge of The Cuyan Nya and Wolffe talk to each other in hushed voices.

"I have a bad feeling about this," the Mandalorian Jedi hisses.

"So do I, and I don't have Force magic, so it has to be bad."

Nya gives the clone commander an exasperated look, and Wolffe flashes a smirk at the woman. The entire reason he mentioned Force magic is because it gets Nya to loosen up when she's worried.

"The Force isn't magic."

"Sure. I'll believe you when you stop throwing me off of things."

"For the last time, Wolffe, that wasn't me! Anakin was the one who did that! He does it to Rex too. And Ahsoka does it."

"Exactly. Anyway, I still say it's magic."

This time, Nya only shakes her head at the man. At least before she says, "Cyar'ika, you know you're impossible, tion'serim?"

Now Wolffe gives Nya a large grin. And his grin tells her everything, but he still says, "I know I am. How could I not? You tell me that almost every day."

Nya sighs dramatically. "If you weren't good for a personal heater..."

Wolffe laughs, and gently presses a kiss to Nya's cheek. "You'd love me anyway."

"Would I though?" Nya says with a grin. Which only gets a wink out of the hardened clone commander. Then Nya steps forward, and asks Admiral Coburn, "What's our ETA, admiral?"

"We'll be dropping out of hyperspace in 20 minutes, general. And we'll be arriving on Coruscant in 40."

With a nod of her head, Nya says, "Jate. I'll let the rest of the men know. Vor'e, admiral."

Admiral Coburn, who has been serving with the 104th since after the Malevolence, has picked up on Mando'a, and so needs no translation for what the young Mandalorian said. He only responds with a nod and smile to the woman. If you fought alongside her, it was difficult not to like the woman. Not that it was difficult to like Plo either mind you.

Nya turns around with the slight swish of her robes and walks past Wolffe, leaving him in charge of the bridge. Something that neither Wolffe or Admiral Coburn disliked, as both men worked well together and got along. Well, as well as Wolffe could get along with someone.

After notifying the men of the 104th, it is finally time to dock on Coruscant. Wolffe oversees the disembarking of the troopers from the different ships, while Nya hightails it to the Jedi Temple. After all, her instructions were once she had docked on Coruscant, she was to come straight to the Jedi Temple and to the Council chambers.

Upon arriving at the Jedi Temple, Nya races through the halls and uses the Force to avoid running into people. And when she, on occasion, bumps someone, she can only yell sorry behind her. At such a pace, it doesn't take her long to reach the Council chambers, but when she does, Nya is quite surprised to see Anakin and Ahsoka standing outside of the Council chambers.
