The jedi and her commander

Chapter 32 Im sorry Secura

(Bly's perspective)

We had an entire scan of Felucia we also know that Luminara was killed by Faie and Caedus was killed by Luminara it was just Secura. Me,Flash,Commander Galle and Dug were looking over the holomap "the platoon we sent out hasn't come back with anything" I say leaning over the holomap "alright I want you 3 to get 30 of your best men and search Felucia I want her found and executed and tell me once you execute her" I order as I press a button to turn off map of Felucia. "General how do we know your not trying to sabotage us" Flash says in a deep voice I remove my helmet and look him straight I pat his visor "What?" I question demanding to know what he means. "Sir I know you and Secura were in a romantic relationship I hope your not trying to help her" I shook my head as Dug and Galle gasped "that's ridiculous im not trying to help her" I defend my self but Commander Galle grabs me by the shoulder and violently pushes me against the tent.

"You were in a romantic relationship with a Jedi you know the punishment for that" Galle was really mad but he didn't know that Ive already been punished but I guess that won't matter now seeing as the Jedi no longer have power.

"Listen thi—" I was interrupted by a transmission coming through from a trooper and Dug answered it.

"What is it trooper" he asked with Dug having his helmet under his left arm.

"We have an issue" we all turned our attention to the trooper on the hologram "what is it trooper" I demanded to know slamming my hands down on the holomap.

"Aayla Secura has escaped she killed Miles and when we fired at her we were attacked by a Rancor it killed Martin and 6 other troops and injuries 12 others before we could kill it" I sighed and dropped my head "thank you trooper" I sighed as his hologram disappeared. I moved away from the holomap I looked over at Galle who still had his helmet on and was facing my direction" we'll continue this conversation later but for now get those platoons about I'm going to get a gunship to take those wounded up to the venator" Galle nodded and Dug put on his helmet and all 3 of them ran out of the tent I sighed again we will find this Jedi traitor.

15 minutes later

I had found a new hiding spot to think of a plan to get off this place as I can't just go running into the jungle and just hope I find somewhere safe. I might have to steak one of the republic ships maybe a gunship but that needs 2 people to operate but that when I remembered my star fighter hopefully they haven't destroyed it yet. But I can't just leave Bly but I don't know if I know him anymore he's a completely different person what's happened there has to be something making him do it as the Bly knew would never do something like this not to me not to anyone. I heard some troops marching near by so I ducked down and saw a platoon of soldiers walking past they've must of sent out more to look for me.as soon as they past I began moving back silently through the jungle but I heard foot steps behind me I turned and a little ways in the distance I saw Dug moving toward me.

I hid behind some more foliage as he walked towards me I heard him getting closer and closer. Until he was right behind the foliage I was behind and he slowly made his way around. I knew I had to kill him.

As he came round I ignited his lightsaber which went right through his gut but immediately turned it off so I didn't draw any attention. He quietly moaned in pain "I'm sorry Dug I don't know what's happening" he falls back but I catch him he quietly moans "I'm sorry" I say again as I rest him against a blue translucent piece of foliage he dropped his blaster and slowly died. I had no more time to waste I had to get to the star fighter.

I was looking over the map until a transmission came through I accepted it "sir we've found head medic Dug's corpse and we've also got a visual on Secura she is heading toward the ships" a yellow scout trooper says "thank you trooper" he disappears I turn off the holomap and move away from it but I grab my helmet and get on the com "Commander Galle get some troopers to destroy Aayla's ships make sure she doesn't escape" I order "yes General" he replies "and Flash I want you to take your Platoon toward the ships so you can cut her off". I then rush out the tent toward the ships I get on a AT-RT to get there quicker we will get this traitor.

(Aayla's perspective)

I ran toward where the ships are many LAAT gunships but I see my star fighter in the distance and smoke in that direction as I run toward it I see Galle and 4 other troops destroying my star fighter it is burning and QT was also in the ship but has burnt along with it my heart sinks. But a trooper notices me "sir over there" Galle turns and spots me "fire" he orders I force push 2 troopers and Galle to the ground which doesn't kill them and ignite my lightsaber. One trooper fired but I knock a blast that hits a trooper in the chest making him fall to the ground I quickly scan the area while still deflecting blasts for another ship I spot a shuttle a breath a small sigh of relief but I notice Galle gets up and fired at me I deflect a blast that knocks down the other clone which hits him in the head.

Galle keeps firing but I deflect a blast that hits him in the head and knocks off his helmet I then run toward the shuttle. But Galle coughing then fired back at me and runs toward me I look behind me and see the determination in his amber eyes and a rough look on his face due to his stubble. One shot grazes my leg I moan but the next shot he fires I deflect and accidentally hit him in the head but I notice Flash and his platoon come out out of the jungle and run toward me. As I begin to run shots get fired at me one hits me in the back and I fall over. Time feels like it freezes I see the shuttle so close but Flash gets closer so with all my strength I force push all his men down and him I'm along with them I slowly rise and limp toward the shuttle the door opens as I walk inside.

I get in the seat and start to turn it on it was slightly different to my star fighter but I had to make it work if I wanted to survive. But I heard some steps I turn and see Flash point his rifle at me this is the end I know it.

(Bly's perspective)

I arrive at the ships and notice all the troops knocked as I get closer I see a shuttle turning on I get off my AT-RT and run towards it. Once I arrive I see Flash he lifts up his rifle and just past Flash I see Aayla her eyes closed she knows what coming. But something comes over me as I lift my rifle too and unlike with Aayla I pull the trigger.

Flash's body drops to the floor dead as I saw him right through the chest Aayla opens I her eyes slowly shocked at the sight she sees I fight back the urge to kill her to instead take off my helmet and mouth the words "Run". She nods to me water filled her eyes as she shuts the door with Flashes body still inside and I drop to my knees as the shuttle take off why did I do that I question myself. The rest of my brothers run over "what happened" one trooper shouts "do we send air support" at that moment I felt alone I shot one of my own brothers that I've known from the start over Aayla the traitor. A hand touches my shoulder "General?" I rookie questions.

I then remember 3 years ago a clone found out about chips in our heads his name was fives I want to test something with it. So I run away from my brothers jump on the AT-RT away from my brothers leaving them left without orders but I need to test this.

2 hours later

I'm at a river bank with a vibrio knife and a bandage this could go wrong but I need to know if this chip effects anything. I turn on the vibrio knife and take it to my head and I hold my breath as I slice through my temple hoping blooding spilling into my armoured knees and  into the water I pull it away and feel something I pull at it until something comes out I look at it a chip in my head and all of a sudden I became myself again I didn't want to kill I felt like I've been brought back into my own body I can't tell anyone about this as if they find out I will be arrested or executed. I put the bandage over my temple but what did it matter now the republic was gone I was just stuck with whatever came with it I've lost many of my brothers that I used to know now we're in the dark times. I cry to myself as I realise that Aayla is gone and I'll probably never see her again as I tried to kill her I failed her.
