The Bad Batch: Book 3

Part 32: Where Is My Sister?

Crosshair's POV 

Wrecker: "Ugh...I don't see 'em. Should we break the comm silence?" 

Me: "No. We continue towards that base. Hunter will head that way too." 

I said as I walked past him. He began to follow me. 

Wrecker: "A-A-Are you sure we're headed in the right direction?" 

Me: "I've been here before. It's not a place you forget." 

I said as I let go of the blaster with my right hand so I could shake my hand a little. The memory of us running threw this jungle was playing on my mind. 

Wrecker: "You broke out of here once. At least this time you are breaking in." 

He said as a chuckle left his mouth. 

Me: "I'd rather not do either, but Luna didn't leave me behind when she could have." 

Me: "If I get the chance to escape, I wouldn't think twice about leaving you behind." 

Luna: "You're lying. I know you Crosshair."

Me: "I am not them Luna."

Luna "I know. But from inside you are like them. More than you know." 

Me: "I own her." 

Hearing something I pointed my blaster at the back thinking it was the creature. But there I saw standing Hunter pointing his blasters at us. Seeing that it was us he removed them and stepped to us. 

Me: "See? He found us." 

Wrecker: "Did Rampart make it?" 

Hunter: "Unfortunately, yes." 

Rampart: "I heard that. You three truly are defective clones. If you had any common sense, you wouldn't have come here. You won't come out of this alive." 

He said as he stepped next to Hunter. Hunter turned his body towards him and took a step closer. 

Hunter: "We'll take our chances. Incoming." 

He took hold of Rampart and pushed him down behind a rock. Wrecker and I quickly stepped next to him just as two shuttles flew above us. 

Luna's POV 

Eva: "Why haven't our vitals been taken today and where did everyone go?" 

She asked quietly. 

Jax: "I don't know. This is weird." 

Me: "I need to scour out what's going on. And this is my best chance before the others come back. If something happens, and I am not back in time, cover me." 

Eva: "Cover you?" 

Jax: "What does that mean?" 

Me: "Keep watch. If the droids come shopping, stall them."

Sami: "How?" 

Me: "You will think of something. I am counting on you." 

I pushed myself off the table and went to my room. Immediately as I came to my room I approached the wall and began to remove the bricks. After removing a few I had enough space to enter the small place. This reminded me of the first mission I had done when guys and I were locked up back on Kamino. Coming inside the wall I began to climb. There wasn't a lot of space but I had enough to move around.
