Bad Reputation: A Bad Batch Fanfiction Story

ℙ𝕖𝕣𝕗𝕖𝕔𝕥

Note: The good ending is finally here! Thank you to everyone who read and voted for Bad Reputation. I love seeing your comments on my writing, and it makes me happy to know you all enjoy it. I'll start writing the bad ending soon since I know that was also requested. I hope you all like the good ending. The ending is very cheesy, but it's honestly super hard to write an ending to this story. I may end up editing this ending later if you all would like me to do that/add anything. :)

F/C = Favorite color

You and Omega eagerly wait by the door as Tech lands the Marauder on Ord Mantell.
"Come on, come on!" You say.
"I'm opening the door now." Tech states.
The door to exit the ship opens and you and Omega run down the steps and to the cantina.
"You won't be able to get the credits without us there!" Hunter reminds you as you run.
"We know!" Omega yells.
You haven't felt this excited to be on Ord Mantell for... well, forever. You and Omega push open the door to get into the cantina and bolt into Cid's office.
"Take it easy, girls. What did you do with the others?" Cid says, a surprised look on her face. You two catch your breath.
"They're... on their way..." Omega pants.
You and Omega jump around as you wait for the rest of the squad.
"Hey, don't break anything!" Cid warns you.

The rest of the squad walks into Cid's office. Wrecker sets the crate down on Cid's desk.
"Careful, Muscles." Cid tells him.
"What?" Wrecker responds. "I am being careful!"
Cid opens up the crate and inspects the materials.
"Good job." She says, closing the crate.
Cid gets a briefcase and hands it to Hunter. Hunter opens it and counts the credits.
"This... this is it." He says happily.
"I can finally get rid of all of you..." Cid mutters.
"The relieved feelings are mutual." Tech says.
Cid looks a little offended, but seems to understand. Omega walks up to Cid and hugs her.
"Thank you, Cid." She tells her.
Cid looks quite taken aback, but embraces her. "Sure, kid."
You and Omega turn to the rest of the squad.
"Y/N, can you come here for a second?" Hunter asks you.
You nod and follow him and Dara outside Cid's office.

You sit down at one of the tables with your parents.
"Is everything alright?" You ask, the tone of your voice slightly nervous.
Hunter nods. "We were talking about what you and Lucian asked us about, and we agreed that he can come with us for a few days."
You gasp. "Really?"
Dara smiles. "I know you've told us that he hasn't been off world. We'll go talk to his parents."
You get up from your chair and hug both of them. "Thank you! You have no idea how much this means to me."
Everyone else leaves Cid's office.
"We'll be back." Hunter tells all of them.
"Omega and I are getting Mantell Mix for the trip!" Wrecker says happily.
"Just don't use the credits in the briefcase. We're giving all of those to Shep." Hunter reminds him.
"Got it, Sergeant!" He replies.
You walk out the door with Dara and Hunter and make your way towards Lucian's market stall.

As soon as Lucian sees you, he runs over and hugs you.
Lucian pulls away from you. "Are you hurt? Did anything happen to you?"
"I'm okay, Lucian. I promise." You reassure him.
He holds your hand. "I just wanted to make sure."
You smile, barely able to contain your excitement. "How would you like to come to Pabu with us for a few days?"
Lucian gasps. "R-Really?"
You nod. "Yeah! Well, that's if your parents say yes."
You two look over at Hunter and Dara. They seem to be talking to Lucian's parents.
"I'm nervous... I really hope my parents say yes." Lucian says quietly, pacing back and forth.
"Whatever happens, I promise it'll be alright. If it doesn't work today, we'll find some other time." You smile.
"Yeah. We will." He replies.
After you two chat there for a while, your parent and Lucian's parents walk over to you.

"I'm assuming Y/N already told you about the plans we had in mind?" Hunter asks Lucian.
Lucian nods. "Yep!"
"We've decided that you can go with Y/N and her family for a few days. We'll tell your siblings." Lucian's mother tells him.
Lucian's eyes widen and he is beaming. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
He hugs both of his parents.
Lucian's father looks at him. "Be kind, use your manners, don't do anything dangerous-"
"I know, Dad. I won't. I promise." Lucian reassures him.
"We should probably leave Ord Mantell soon." Dara suggests.
"Yeah." Hunter replies.
Hunter shakes Lucian's parents' hands and thanks them.
As you walk away, Lucian waves to his parents. "Bye, Mom! Bye, Dad! I love you!"
"We love you too!" His parents respond.
Lucian holds one of your hands as you follow Hunter and Dara to the Marauder. As you walk back to the ship, the same familiar way you've always gone, it feels weird to know visiting Ord Mantell won't be a weekly thing anymore. You'll have a home, a real home, with your family. Far away from the Empire, with people you love, you can't wait.
