Gunships were falling out of the sky after being hit by torpedos. The Shadow World of Umbara fell into Seperatist hands and the 501st was sent to stop them. Strike Squad was in their gunship heading down to the surface.
Bloodspurt: "Aw yeah, this is my fight!"
He spun his Z-6 rotary canon in anticipation of the fight ahead.
Brik: "Your type of fight is one where we might take thousands of casualties?"
Bloodspurt: "Well Uh,"
Bloodspurt looked around as the gunship was staring at him. Bear shook his head and opened up the door looking down at the planet below them.
Bear: "Cut the chatter men we're approaching landi-"
Bear is cut off as the gunship was hit. The hull of the ship cut apart as the ship tore in two. The troopers not part of Strike Squad were mostly thrown out of the ship or killed immediately. Bear, Sergeant Lockup, and the rookie Hades clung to a gunship door. Corporal James, Brik, and Bloodspurt, a long with a few other troopers clung to the other side of the gunship. The ship was being held together by a thin piece of the floor of the gunship. Bear watched as it snapped when it hit the ground. The three of them fell to the ground on the door until it came to a stop. The gunship crashes leaving wreckage everywhere. Bear gets up and walks to the wreckage. He sees James pull Brik up underneath a part of the ship. Bear helps up Bloodspurt.
Bear: "Having fun yet Bloodspurt?"
Bloodspurt: "No sir"
Bear looks around at corpses of troopers who didn't survive the crash. Lockup and Hades walk over to them.
Bear: "Alright men, grab those morters, Captain Rex needs us"
The squad grabbed what they could carry and ran to the battle.
