Plo Koon didn't know what was wrong with his Wolfpack. They had all been in a depressed mood ever since they came back from Kamino. He thought it may be because of Fives' death or Tup's but he didn't really know. The news that they were being deployed to Cato Neimodia had made things even worse. They hung out with Plo every second of every day, as the Republic Cruiser made it's way to Cato Neimodia. The Kel Dor Jedi didn't mind spending time with the Wolfpack but it was just a little weird.
Comet was currently clinging onto Plo Koon's side as they walked down towards the hangar where the rest of the Wolfpack was. It was time for the 104th to get on the gunships to bring them to the surface of Cato Neimodia. Comet looked up at the Jedi General with a smile and then his face fell. Plo Koon didn't know why.
"Comet, my son, what's wrong? You look upset and I feel it in the Force. Will you tell me what's wrong, so I can help you?" Plo Koon asked, stopping in the hallway as he put his hands on the young trooper's armored shoulders. Comet shook his head and looked down at the floor. Plo Koon frowned underneath his mask.
"I'm sorry, sir. I can't tell you, please don't make me talk about it, I can't tell you." Comet said softly, as he diverted his attention to his helmet in his hands.
"All right, but does this have anything to do with the fact that the rest of the Wolfpack is in a depressed mood? Or is it something different?" The Kel Dor asked.
Comet hesitated before nodded his head, slowly. "Yes, sir. It's about Cato Neimodia and everything. However, there's something about it that we can't tell you."
Plo Koon was confused now. He remembered how something was going to happen on Cato Neimodia and he thought that the Wolfpack knew what it was. He needed to know if it was vital to ending the war or if it would impact the war in any way. "Comet, the dark side is stronger than it has ever been in the start of the war. You need to tell me if it impacts the war." Plo Koon said.
"Sir, Wolffe told me not to say anything. If you want to know you'll have to ask him but Wolffe, won't tell you." Comet responded.
"We shall see. I will ask Wolffe but if he won't tell me there is nothing that I can do." Plo said as he walked towards the hangar, once again.
"Perhaps you guys will tell me after we leave Cato Neimodia." Plo Koon added. Whatever Comet's expression was he couldn't see under Comet's helmet. Plo Koon felt a wave of sadness and despair through the Force. Plo Koon didn't say anything. He never said anything until they arrived at the hangar bay door.
"Buir? I just wanted to tell you that I appreciate everything you've done for me. You took me out of a horrible place and brought me here to the Pack. I will always be thankful for that. You are my favorite Jedi because you value our lives even though we're clones. You always treat us better than the Kaminoans do." Comet said, before turning around and entering the hangar, leaving Plo Koon in the hallway lost in his thoughts. Plo felt happier than he ever had since the war started. He loved his sons and would do anything for them.

"Move it, troopers! Get on the gunships!" Wolffe ordered his men. He made sure everyone was on a gunship and then he and the rest of the Wolfpack got on their gunship.
"Do I have to fly us to Cato Neimodia? We can leave the GAR now before the Order comes. The General isn't with us, we can go now!" Warthog said, as he navigated out of the hangar.
"No, let's just finish this war. We cannot abandon our brothers right now." Wolffe stated.
"Wolffe's right. Ummm.. guys? I need to tell you something." Comet said, nervously.
"What is it, pup?" Boost asked, looking over at the younger trooper.
"I remember as a cadet, that whatever the situation, we should help our brothers. I have gotten the chips out of Hound and Wooley. I'm sorry Wolffe but I had to. I couldn't let Wooley kill General Kenobi. I know Hound's close to Fox but he promised he wouldn't tell. I'm sorry for going against your orders, Wolffe, but it was the right thing to do." Comet admitted.
Wolffe growled and glared at the youngest of the pack. "You went against my orders when I told you not to tell anyone. How could you? Comet, I trusted you. Your in big trouble right now, CT- 3891! Don't talk to me, I'm so mad at you right now!" Wolffe shouted. Comet flinched, he hadn't been called by his CT number ever since he left Kamino. His number brought back painful memories and he glared back at Wolffe.
"Wolffe, please don't call me by my number. I know you're mad but please don't call me by my number. I'm sorry for going against your orders but I didn't want Wooley or Hound to go through with the Order. Hound promised he wouldn't tell Fox and Wooley said he wouldn't tell Cody, either. I really am sorry, Wolffe. Please don't be mad at me." Comet responded.
"I don't know what it's like to be controlled by the chip. I shouldn't have gotten mad at you or called you by your number. You did what you felt was right." Wolffe said.
"Guys, we've landed on Cato Neimodia. There is no turning back now." Warthog called from the pilot's seat.
"I mean we could always leave on the gunship anytime we want. We're not stuck here or anything." Sinker said.
"Sinker, cut it out." Wolffe sighed, shaking his head.
"What? I didn't do anything!" Sinker replied, acting innocent.
"You know what you did. Now, cut it out."
"Fine."

The Wolfpack hated Cato Neimodia. They had been on the planet for months and they all were waiting for the Order to come. They spent as much time with Plo Koon as they could. Now, Wolffe was in the commander center of the Republic base, listening to Jedi General Obi Wan's report about Grievous being on Utapau. Jedi General Anakin Skywalker had killed Count Dooku earlier and the war could be over. However, the war wouldn't be won by the Republic.Wolffe knew the Order would be coming soon. The rest of the Wolfpack knew it, as well.
"Commander, I know Warthog's a pilot but I want him to be part of the ground attack. I will have Captain Jag take Warthog's place. Now, go get your men ready. We have a war to win!" Plo Koon said. Wolffe knew that Warthog wouldn't like the arrangement at all but it was for the best. He knew it would be easier to escape if they were all together when the Order came through.
Warthog hated the arrangement. "What? I'm a pilot! I don't do ground attacks! This is so not fair! Why is Jag replacing me? I'm a better pilot then him! Everyone knows that!"
"Warthog, it's easier for when the Order comes through." Wolffe said, placing a hand on his younger brother's shoulder.

The Wolfpack waited. They had won their battle. They looked up into the sky at the starfighters in the air. Plo Koon at the lead, Jeg behind him, and the rest in the back.
Wolffe's holoprojector beeped. An incoming transmission, it was that time, the Order was coming. Wolffe switched it on.
"Commander Wolffe, the time has come. Execute Order 66. Any clone that does not follow this Order will be accused of treason against the Republic and will be shot." a deep eery sounding voice said through the hologram. He was in a Sith robe and Wolffe knew who it was. He knew it was the unknown Sith Lord that the Jedi had been looking for. The Sith that had been playing both sides of the war.
I guess we've been the Seperatists' weapons at this time, Wolffe thought. Created to earn the Jedi's trust and then kill them. I have to act like I'm controlled or else, I'll be shot and then I won't be able to protect my Wolfpack.
"It will be done my Lord." Wolffe said, as he looked up into the sky as Captain Jag shot down Plo Koon. The Wolfpack's Jedi, the one who was their father-figure, their General Biur.
*I couldn't find out what Comet's actual CT number was so I made it up. So yeah...*
