A Jedi's Tale - The Story of Jay Lyon

The First Day of The War

 As the Hidden Leaf continue to rebuild and prepare for war, The troops of The Republic were resupplied with more troops and supplies. The famed Four Female Battalions arrived and reinforced the 1st & the 114th. the 1st Company, now the 1st Golden Battalion, was among them to join in the fight. While the troops settled in, Lyons gathered his staff & The Jedi Generals and went over the plan of attack.

Their formation will be like Pickett's Charge with a hint of Union maneuver from the Battle of Chickamauga. The 1st Militia in be in front with the 114th Regiment in support. The 1st Female Battalion will be on their left with the 2nd Female Battalion in support. The 3rd Battalion would be in the left with the 4th Battalion in Support. The 76th Legion will be behind Lyons in support. This maneuver, which was displayed at the Battle of Chickamauga, was drilled over and over again in the morning. The Musketry Men of the 1st delivered a volley and then withdraw to reload while their comrades of the 20th Century & the Clones covering for them until they are loaded. Then, with the Musketry are loaded, the 20th Century & Clone would load up. During this, Lyons trained as an Assassin and in Lightsaber Combat. But, as he trained, his thoughts were of his friend, Lieutenant General Patrick Dawson. He has been done after Pain's Assault. On the morning of the 25th of September, Lyons's Corps moved out to the Headquarters of the Allied Shinobi Force, at The Hidden Cloud Village. As they marched to The Hidden Cloud, General Lyons thought about Dawson. Along the march, the troops sang the song called the Battle Cry of Freedom to raise the troops' spirit during the march. After the battle, Lieutenant General Patrick Dawson was taken to The Soul Society to be cured of from his nightmare from 2001, The Nine Tail Fox Attack of October 2001. He faced many demons and ghosts of his past, like re-living the attack by learning was was REALLY responsible. He found out it was Obito who used Madara Identity. Then, he faced Kushina as a reanimated shinobi and told her that what happened wasn't his fault. Lastly, he met spirit of his father who told him that he is not his father and he should not try to be him. He passed all three tests and was and found closure, thanks to the careful eye of Captain Retsu Unohana. Rangiku watched the treatment and stayed by his side, most of the time. He was informed of Danzō death and the start of The Fourth Great Ninja War. He drilled for battle when he returns to the World of the Living and battle of his troops. On a break from drilling, Rangiku visited him. Patrick, at the moment, wanted to confess his feelings towards Rangiku. After the accidental kiss, following Pain's death, he could never get experience out of his head.

The 8th of October, Patrick was informed of the opening battle of The Fourth Great Ninja War. A battle is underway with Lyons and his troops. They faced a foe of reanimated Central Power German, Nazi German, Imperial French and Confederate Soldiers, to which The Akatsuki did it to through The Americans off, like The Reanimated Shinobi. As Patrick prepared to return, he turned to face Rangiku, ready to go. She had orders from Captain Tōshirō Hitsugaya to stay by Dawson's side. The Senkaimon opened up and the two traveled to the World of The Living, to the Front. Meanwhile, Lyons and his troops are holding their own. Confederate Troops under the command of Confederate Major General James Patton Anderson put pressure on Lyons's left, where The 1st's Marines and 114th's Marines are. The left flank began to crumble until Dawson arrived and order The Marines to rally and return fire. When the 1st Golden Battalion arrived on the field, They reinforced the Marines and pushed back The Confederates, winning the day. They rejoiced for the day is won and order troops to collect the wounded. Many of Lyons's troops surround Dawson with happiness to see their Lieutenant General again. One soldier said in a journal entry that Dawson's return was 'blessing.'. The fight were in saw minimum casualties from Lyons's troops. The 114th lost five killed and six wounded. The 76th had eight troops wounded & The 1st barely got a scratch, same with The Female Clone Reinforcements. The Reanimated Confederates lost 185 troops before being forced back. The dead and wounded were collected and taken back to the Hidden Leaf. General Lyons gave and order to his corps to regroup and rejoin with the others. Then, Jay sensed a dark presence, coming from the direction that The Reanimated Confederates retreated. It's a presence he dare not wish to meet since that day. Stepping out of the woods was a my crazy admirers, to whom she has a crush on me; a Yandere-type, and an unstable stalker, if you want call it. She wore black robes with no sleeves with black gauntlets and red belt with twin red lightsabers. Her black hair became wavy with her bangs covering her right eye, leaving her left eye showing her Sith eyes. This person was named Gana Vaslo. She had a crush on Jay since his days at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Ever since Jay met Mollbry, and developed feelings for her, Vaslo didn't take the news well. She tried to attack Mollbry and Jay on a mission, over his feelings, and his time, for Mollbry. The Jedi found out about this and expelled her from the order. And, as a precaution, Jay filed a restraining order on her; to which she is not to speak to me and get within multiple parsec of him, his family & his friends at any time. But, that day, she violated the restraining order. Stepping out of the woods in a threatening manner, She greet Jay by calling him 'her love.'. Even her words send shivers down Jay's spine and makes his blood run cold.

"Rocking the emo look, I see." Jay said. "Did you miss me, my darling?" Gana said, putting on a smile. Jay ordered everyone to clear the area and regroup with the others. He told them he will handle her himself. Britt disagreed and said she will help Jay with dealing her. He overruled her, stating that he will mend this old wound. Britt knows Jay was right and she told The 76th and the rest of the troops to pull back. But, Jaysuki stayed behind and hid in the tree. Both Jay and Jaysuki came up with a plan should she appear. When they started their duel, Jaysuki watched and prepared himself for what is to come. He created a shadow clone of himself, who transformed into Jay. Now, they waited for the right moment to act. Just then, Lieutenant Nanao Ise arrived and sat by Jaysuki, who explained to her what is going on. Then, Nanao asked if she can help out, which caused Jaysuki to update his plan. Once Jay landed in the woods after a Force Push, he noticed Nanao with Jaysuki and a Transformed Shadow Clone of Jay, to which he explained everything to her and had to update his plan. Then, hearing Gana calling him, Jay hid further in the trees and concealed his presence. As planned, "Jay" stepped out of the woods "Recovering" from his attack. He gives playful banter before fighting. Once she defeated "Jay", she give him a kiss. But, she fell right into the trap. The Shadow Clone Disappeared, leaving Gana suprised. Then, using Bakudō #4. Hainawa, Nanao wraps it around Gana, taking her prisoner. The Real Jay stepped out of the woods, smirking at Gana's Predicament. He told her it's over and she should surrender. At first, she did. But she broke free and attacks Jay, engaging in a fierce duel. However, Jay eventually countered one of Gana's attack with a physical strike from his lightsaber hilt and seized the opportunity since Gana was off-balance, fatally stabbing the Dark Jedi through the torso. A shocked Gana looked down at her wound. She dropped her arms and dropped her lighters. She dropped to one knee, but Jay caught her before she could fall to the ground and held her. "You do care." She said, in her dying breath. "I don't." Jay said to her, telling her one final time. "I am sorry, Gana. But, I don't have feelings for you. My heart belongs to another; and that other is Mollbry. My heart beats for none but her. You need to accept that. Your version of love between you and me is not going to work." Gana seemed to come to terms with his death, stating with her final breath that she has accept the relationship between Jay and Mollbry and should stop pursuing a relationship. With that, after so many years of suffering, yearning and anguish, Gana finally passed away peacefully in Jay's arm. As a final gesture of mercy, Jay closed her eyes and laid her to rest.

After the battle, he buried her in an unmarked grave. He took her lightsabers destroyed her kyber crystals and sank her lightsaber hilts into the deepest trench in the ocean. After completing his task, he wrote a letter to Mollbry; telling her the Gana is dead and will not bother them again. He added that he is alive and unharmed will see them once the war is over. Later that night, Lyons's Corps settled down for the night before making the big push. Several squads of troops were on picket duty, watching for any seek attack from the enemy. They were instructed to NOT like fires to alert the enemy. Jay walked around, checking on his troops of the 76th and the troops in Lyons's Corps. He saw Lieutenant General Dawson, leaning against the tree. He was gazing at a photo of him with Kushina and Minato. Then, he gaze up to Lieutenant Matsumoto, he was talking to Lieutenant Ise. Then, he sensed strong feelings coming from General Dawson. Those feelings were aimed at Rangiku. Jay felt the same way when he met Mollbry. He agreed to to be a relationship with her, but also agreed to take things slow and not let their relationship come first on missions and their duties as Jedi.

As some of the troops turn in for the night, they prepare themselves for what is to come tomorrow. What will come their way, will bring much surprises and many, many outcomes.
