Life day music fills the halls of the 501st base. "Wait.." Fives checks a calendar. "Kriff. Kriff! KRIFF!" He shouts. Echo looks over at him. "Don't tell me-" He gulps. "It's that time of year. again." Fives groans. "It feel's like just last year." He whimpered. "It did stupid." Echo growled.

Jesse looks at the two. "Why are you freaking out?" He chuckled. "Life day is tomarrow." Fives informed. " And Coyote on Life Day is like the Captain during training." Echo shivered. "Awe c'me on guys. It can't be that bad." Jesse smiled lightly. "Hey guys!" Coyote peeked her head into the room. Fives and Echo jumped. "AH! She devil!" Fives shouted. "That. I am." She nodded. "Jesse." She called his na  me. Jesse turned to her. "Hm?" He tilted his head slightly. "Give these plans to The captain, would you?" She asked politely. "Uh, sure?" He asked confused by her being... nice. Jesse walked off papers in hand. "Now. You two." She looked at Echo and Fives. "Here we go. Again." Fives groaned.

Coyote grabbed them by the arm. "You two are decorating the mess hall." She chuckled lightly. "Ow." Fives looked at her hand on his arm. "And-"He started. Coyote glared at them. "Y-yes Ma'am." Fives stuttered. The doors to the mess hall opened. "All right. Decorations in the corner ladder is right by them. Thanks. Bye." She left them alone. "I hate Life Day." Echo groaned.

Coyote has assigned a room to each of the clones on base. Now, she was helping Kix decorate the med room. "Al- I mean Coyote." Rex walked into the med room. "Sir." She looked over. "What the hell are you doing? Today we have to train." He growled. "All due respect sir, I am training the boy's myself." She nodded respectfully. "How is decorating, training?" Rex questioned. "Mkay, Sir, I have assigned a job to a pair or a singular clone that will help them with a skill they need to work on." She explained to him. Rex narrowed his eyes. The hazel color could burn through most, but it never worked on Coyote. "Just, trust me."  She gave him a gentle smile as she folded her hands together. Rex blushed lightly. "Now, I need you to make sure the kitchen isn't burnt down. I assigned Jesse cooking duty." She was starting to regret her decisions. "Yeah probably not the brightest idea. He puts milk before cereal sooo." Kix spoke up. "I advise you bring a fire extinguisher." He continued. Rex and Coyote looked at each other. "You know let's both go." Coyote chuckled lightly. Rex huffed and rolled his eyes.

Coyote grabbed a fire extinguisher. They pair started towards the kitchen. "Ala." Rex looked down at the girl. "Yes, sir." She looked over at him. "What's your deal with Life Day?" He asked. "Its always been my Holiday. Ever since I landed on Kamino when I was eh 5? I think. General Skywalker always tried to make Life Day normal for me. So I chose to carry it on and keep keeping it.. normal." She finished her story. Rex sighed lowly. "Sir?" She looked up. "Wh-" Rex stopped himself. He shook his head. "What do you want for Life Day." He looked Ala in her cloudy grey eyes. She blushed lightly. "Sir?" She tilted her head. "Ala." He smiled softly. "Enough with the formalities. Just call me Rex when were alone." He nodded. "Okay? Um I dont know really." She shrugged.

Ala wrinkled her nose. Rex let out a chuckle. "I smell.. smoke!" She started to run towards the kitchen. Rex looked at her running after her. Ala made it to the kitchen and sprayed the fire extinguisher all over the burning oven. Jesse was freaking out. "Jesse!" Coyote shouted. She was sweating. Her hair now an unruly mess. He looked over. "S-sorry Coyote." He gulped. "Me and Rex will handle cooking. You can go and help Kix in the med bay." Coyote ordered sighing lightly. Jesse nodded running out of the kitchen. KitKat sighed angerly as she ran her fingers through her chestnut hair. Rex looked her up and down. "You okay, Ala?" He asked softly. She looked up and plastered a smile on her face. "I'm fine." She out on a black apron and tossed a pink one to Rex. "Jesse destroyed my other black one so that one will have to make do." She snickered quietly.
