The Bad Batch: Book 3

Part 25: Wrecker's Luck

Luna's POV 

Lyana: "I wish you didn't have to leave." 

Me: "Me too. But Hunter is right. We should leave. I do not want any trouble for the people of this island." 

I said making her turn her body towards me. 

Lyana: "What do you think of this place?" 

She asked as I saw an empty place on the museum shelf. 

Me: "It's perfect." 

Lyana: "What tresure did you bring?" 

I opened my bag and took out Tech's googels. 

Lyana: "Luna...are you sure you want to leave those behind?" 

Me: "Pabu, was the first place that felt like home. This way the piece of us and him is still here." 

I said as I placed the goggles on the shelf. Deep down I felt like leaving him behind. But I also know that this planet would be his forever home. He loved it here even though he never said it. I could see it in his eyes. He was happy here. I turned my body towards Lyana and offered her Lola. 

Me: "This is for you." 

With a sad smile, she took it and looked at it. 

Lyana: "I'll keep it safe until you come back." 

I wanted to nod my head and smile to show her that we would come back soon but I couldn't lie to her. 

Lyana: "You will come back right?" 

Me: "I am sorry Lyana. But I do not know. Maybe one day. So in the model time, I ask you to keep....to keep Tech safe." 

I said as I looked at his goggles. 

Lyana: "Of course Luna. Always." 

She stepped closer and hugged me. I hugged her back. 

Me: "I am sorry I will miss your proposal. But I am so happy for you two." 

Lyana: "Thank you." 

Hunter's POV 

A bad feeling came over me making me stop walking so I could look around. 

Crosshair: "What is it?" 

Me: "Not sure, but I don't like it." 

I said as I saw birds flying around in panic. Pressing the comm device I placed it close to my lips. 

Me: "Luna, time to go." 

Luna: "Copy." 

Crosshair and I waited for a few minutes when Luna came with Batcher and Lyana. 

Lyana: "Hunter." 

She approached me and gave me a quick hug. 

Lyana: "I know you don't like Crosshair, so I wouldn't even try." 

Crosshair: "Good." 

She came to us and stepped next to his daughter. 

Shep: "We're sorry to see you go, but you're all always welcome here anytime."

Me: "Thanks for everything, Shep." 

I offered him my hand and we shook it. Lyana and Luna hugged each other. Lyana's eyes looked at me. 

Lyana: "Look after her." 

I nodded. She then whispered something into Luna's ear. Then we began to walk away and as we made a few steps a loud explosion was heard. It was so hard that it made the grounds shake and people began to scream in panic.
