REX AND CODY'S DIMENSION HOPPING SHENANIGANS

THE ARGUMENT

The group had returned to Coruscant to report their findings at the Temple and the accident with the portal. Echo happily gave his statement and made sure to add in how, "most of the troops acted like ten year old children." The council began to look into a solution. However, Echo and Fives decided to do their own research. After Echo had delivered his statement of what happened to the Council, he and Fives headed towards the cafeteria. They then headed toward an empty table in the corner. Four other troopers from the 501st Legon, being Kano,Boomer, Dogma,and Kix noticed the pair and decided to join them at the table in the corner.  

Echo then pulled out his Holopad, another medium sized screen, and his Holoprojector.  He then got to work. "Hey Echo?" "What exactly ARE you doing anyway?" Kano questioned. Echo explained, "I'm guessing that Portals like the one that took Rex and Cody need a large amount of energy to stay open." "What I'm doing is trying to trace the energy it left behind." "So we can figure out if it dumped them in another world, another plane of existence, or even another dimension." "Can we help in any way?" Boomer asked. "Sure thing." Echo responded before continuing to trace the portal. 

 "Ah I get it now. Kix said. "I like the way you think Echo!"Said Dogma  "Thank you Dogma." Echo responded. Some of the 212th troopers were coming into the mess hall. Unfortunately for the 501st group, Blitz was among those troopers. Blitz noticed the six troopers sitting quietly in the corner of the cafeteria. He broke away from the other 212th troopers before beginning to walk over to their table. He wondered if they were up to something.*Cuz you know,Blitz is just a suspicious jerk like that.* 

Kano noticed Blitz coming over and subtly muttered so the rest of the group could hear. " Blitz is coming." He said. "What you guys doing?" Blitz questioned once he reached the table. There wasn't any room on the benches so Blitz just stood at the head of the table."Nothing important" Dogma said."Then what's with all that tech Echo's got set up?" Blitz retorted sarcastically.  "Kriff off Blitz." Fives said, getting up from his seat. " Are you tryin to follow Rex and Cody?" Blitz prodded. "He said,KRIFF OFF." Boomer said in a warning tone. "It's none of your business what we are doing anyway" Echo interjected. "And besides," "They are ARC troopers, you are a standard." "I'm not trying to rub it in your face, but they outrank you. "So you technically can't tell them what to do." Kix pointed out. 

"Don't mean I can't ask them." Or you guys for that matter." Blitz said, turning his attention away from the two ARC's to the other four troopers of the group. "Check the ranks again genius. Dogma interjected. "We're all either the same rank as you or a bit higher up so you can't order any of us around anytime soon." Kano laughed upon hearing what Dogma said. "Doesn't mean I can't be suspicious." Blitz retorted. "You know what?" "We're done with this."Boomer said. "Yea, If you refuse to remove yourself from our business, then we will remove ourselves from you." With that, the the six 501st troopers stood up, grabbed their things, and left the mess hall.

AUTHORS NOTES: A holoprojector is the circular hologram device that was used to transmit order 66* *In this FIC Blitz is gonna be a MASSIVE jerk. When looking up 501st troopers to use in this chapter that were in the clone wars but not DED. I discovered that Jet and Blitz are real troopers in the clone wars. In this FIC I am just gonna keep their names though. Boomer,Kano,Dogma,and Kix all survive the clone wars, that's why I'm using them instead of characters like yup. Who dies. I know Fives also does but idc to much about timeline stuff 😂.
