Summary: Tech discusses ideas for your wedding with you. After that, you and the squad go on a mission together (where Tech gets protective of you).

Warnings: Some violence

Note: I just love this picture of Tech! It makes him look like he's smiling. :)

     You're sitting next to Tech in the cockpit of the Marauder as the ship flies throughout hyperspace. It's the evening right now, and some of the others have gone back to their rooms to relax for a while. You listen to Tech mumbling to himself, his mind probably racing.

"Are you okay, Tech?"

Tech nods. "Yes. I am just thinking through some ideas I had for our wedding."

Your face immediately lights up when Tech mentions your wedding. "Well now I'm curious. What are your ideas?"

Tech turns towards you, showing you a list of ideas he's written down. "I believe that Pabu will be suitable location for our wedding."

"That sounds wonderful." You agree. 

"Who would you like to invite?"

"Well, the squad of course, to start."

Tech laughs. "Well, I thought that was obvious."

~

     Tech goes over to Hunter and asks him about who he'd like to invite to your wedding. 

"Rex, of course. I mean, it's your wedding, Tech. You can invite anybody."

"I know, I just wanted your opinion."

Tech walks over to you. "I'm sorry. Am I talking too much about this?"

You shake your head. "Not at all. I think it's cute that you're so excited about planning our wedding. Maybe we can invite some of the clones that are part of Rex's team."

"Good idea." Tech responds, adding a few names to one of his lists.

"The next time we go to Pabu, you and I can talk to Shep about planning a date for our wedding."

Tech smiles. "I would enjoy that.

     You can tell that Omega has been eavesdropping on your conversations with Tech today. You know that she's excited about your wedding, and she seems to want to help. She eventually walks up to the cockpit where you and Tech are sitting together.

Omega turns towards you. "Have you picked out your dress yet?"

"Not yet, no. I haven't thought that far. Besides, I'm not sure if we have the credits for that."

Omega pauses for a moment before speaking again. "It's alright. We've been going on more missions lately. Besides, we can always have Lyana help us make you a wedding dress. She's made some of my clothes." 

Omega points to the current shirt that she's wearing. It looks crocheted or knitted.

You smile. "Thanks, Omega."

"Of course."

     After you and Tech have been discussing different ideas for your wedding all morning, it's finally time to go on your mission for the day.

Crosshair slowly walks over to you and Tech. "Hunter says it's time for the mission."

Tech nods, spinning his chair around so he's facing the controls for the Marauder. He presses a few buttons, then takes off of Ord Mantel. 

Tech turns to you once you are off of the planet, gesturing to the hyperdrive. "Would you like to do the honors?"

You shrug. "Sure." 

You push the lever forward, launching the ship into hyperspace.

~

     You notice as you land that it's nighttime on this planet. You're surprised by how desolate the planet looks, but it's also not the first time you've been on a sketchy looking planet before. Everyone except you puts their helmets on and gets their gear ready. You're the first one to exit the ship, the others following you.

"What exactly is this mission?" Crosshair asks.

"We're recovering an asset." Hunter responds.

Echo tilts his head. "An asset? What kind of asset?"

Hunter sighs. "It's an artifact."

"Don't tell me this is a mission Phee sent you on..." Crosshair groans.

"It'll get us credits. Relax, Crosshair."

All of you follow Hunter through the desolate planet.

~

     "We are approaching the city, Hunter." Tech states. 

"I know. The artifact isn't in some ancient building this time. It's in a warehouse."

"A warehouse. Great. Not concerning at all." Echo remarks.

You start to get an uneasy feeling as you approach the city. There aren't very many people around, and the people that are here look at you all suspiciously. Tech look down at his datapad. 

"Continue heading East. We should arrive at the warehouse soon." Tech tells Hunter.

"Got it."

All of you walk in silence for a while longer until you reach the big warehouse. There are two main garage doors that will lead you into the warehouse. Wrecker walks over to them, attempting to lift one of them.

"It's locked." Wrecker tells you all.

"Since when has that ever stopped you?" Echo responds to him.

"See the lock for yourself!"

You walk over to one of the garage doors and inspect the lock. Wrecker is right- it would be incredibly hard to break it. Not only is it locked, but it has heavy chains around it to. The chains are made out of a hard metal. 

"Can you use your lightsaber, Y/N?" Hunter asks you.

"There are people near here. What if they see?"

"Then we'll fight back." Hunter says firmly.

You finally agree with him, igniting your lightsaber and cutting the chains and locks.

     Once you're done, Wrecker is now able to lift the garage door, holding it up just in time for the rest of you to get through. After everyone is through, Wrecker shifts so he's on the inside of the warehouse with the rest of you. He drops the garage door, making it hit the ground with an echoing thud. 

"Nice, real nice, Wrecker." Crosshair whispers sarcastically.

"It's not my fault!" Wrecker whispers back.

"Shh- both of you." Hunter tells them quietly.

Tech scans the room with his datapad. "I have identified two heat signatures here."

You look at his datapad and see where the asset is marked. The warehouse is nearly pitch black. You're surprised that anybody is still here at this hour.

"I'll get the asset. I can get over there and use the Force to get it." You tell the others.

"I don't like that you're going over there alone, but... fine." Hunter agrees. "We'll back you up from over here."

You nod before stealthily making your way over to the crate where the artifact is being held.

~

     As you're finally about to reach the crate, you're put in a chokehold by one of the two people in the warehouse. You use the Force to temporarily get yourself away from them, but the person catches up to you, this time holding a knife to your throat. You can't do anything. The person takes you to the middle of the warehouse. You see the vague figures of your squad point their blasters at the person holding you.

Tech steps forward, slowly inching closer to you and the person holding you. "Put her down." He says sternly.

"Why?" The person responds. Although you can't see them, you can tell by the voice that a woman is holding you. "I could just kill your Jedi friend right here. Or, better yet, I could turn her in to the Empire for some credits..."

You can't see Tech clearly because it's so dark, but you can hear his breathing getting faster and heavier. You hear the footsteps of the other person in the warehouse getting closer until you can tell that they are standing right next to the woman.

The other person laughs. "Don't try anything."

You see two blaster shots fire one after the other at both of the people. They're both stunned unconscious and you're finally free.

"That's what you get for messing with my fiancé." Tech says.
