Galaxy of War || A clone wars fanfiction

Chapter 18

"We are decrypting the audio, sir." one of our clones informs us, as we are standing on the bridge of The Negotiator.

"The clone planet of Kamino will be a dangerous target," a female voice says. Her hood is up, so we can't see her face. But the voice matches our description of Count Dooku's newest apprentice, Ventress. 

"Just make sure you hold up your half of the mission. We must stop the production of new clones if we are to win this war!" General Grievous says before the transmission breaks off.

"Kamino," Anakin states.

"They're going to attack our home planet," Rex says. I can see the panic on both his and Cody's face, the same with all the other clones in the room.

"The Separatists are taking quite the chance even considering this," Obi-Wan says. He's right, it would be an incredible win for them if they managed to do so, but it's a planet filled with clones and Jedi.

"With all due respect, General, if someone comes to our home, they better be carrying a big blaster," Rex tells us.

"I concur with Captain Rex, sir." Cody agrees. "This is personal for us clones."

"We'll make sure Kamoni is secure. Tell your troopers in the 501st and 212th, that they are going home," I reassure them.

"Yes, sir."

"I know you said it was going to rain, but couldn't you have warned me to take my robe on?" I ask my master frustrated as we walk out of our cruiser and into pouring rain.

"Don't worry, it will dry as soon as we get inside," my Master tells me. I sure hope so, if not, I'm going to be soaked and annoyed the entire day.

"Masters Kenobi and Skywalker, Padawan Caran, welcome to Kamino," Master Shaak-Ti greets us on the landing platform. I give her a respektfull bow. 

"Greetings, Generals," says a native Kaminoan by her side.

"I wish our arrival wasn't under such circumstances. We believe Grievous is planning a Separatist attack on Kamino." Obi-Wan explains our visit.

"But the Republic blockade is far too strong. They would not dare." The Kaminoan says. My Master takes a second to let the thought settle before we start walking again. Thunder booms from above, making me jump a bit in shock as we walk into the facility.

"Not a big fan of thunderstorms?" Anakin asks me.

"My mother always said thunderstorms means something bad is going to happen" I explain.

"And you believe that?" He asks with a hint of amusement.

"Well, I used not too, but the night before my entire people was killed, there was a thunderstorm" I shrug, even as he stops walking in shock, I keep going. 

I sigh deeply as we enter our room designated to us if we are to stay for a longer period of time, if the battle won't happen today. I grab my braid and twist it, making all the water leave my soaked hair. 

"You couldn't have done that somewhere else?" Anakin rolls his eyes after he's about to slip in the small puddle of water. 

I open my mouth to respond, but the sound of alarms blaring takes up our attention. I guess we won't be using this room today. Obi-Wan is the first one out of the door, and Anakin right behind him. The two of them have some different level kind of reaction time that doesn't compare to any attempt that I've made to be the first one out of the door.
