Ct-9903 Stories

After settling down on Pabu, Clone Force 99 has spent two quiet months rebuilding their lives. The days are warm, the sea calm, and for the first time, Hunter believes peace might last. That illusion breaks when a stranger arrives one night at Shep's door, a woman rescued from Zygerrian captivity and still marked by the ghosts of her past. Her nights are restless, her sketches haunted by shadows no one else can see. When she insists someone is coming to her home, no one believes her. No one except Hunter. As the tides still and fear seeps through paradise, he must uncover the truth before her mind and her safety slip beneath the surface. *In this work, Tech is alive, having somehow survived the fall through a chaotic mix of luck, engineering instinct, and a conveniently timed crash into a transport below. Now back on Pabu, he claims he "calculated the trajectory perfectly," while everyone else agrees he should never be allowed near another cable system again.

Elara never meant to stand out. On Kamino-where lightning splits the sky and cadets are pushed to their limits-she's just trying to survive. Exhausted from night shifts and falling behind in the combat medic program, she's one mistake away from being cut. She doesn't expect anyone to notice. Especially not them. But Clone Force 99 is watching. Led by the enigmatic Hunter-sharp-eyed, soft-spoken, and impossible to read, the squad offers her something unexpected: a second chance. A new kind of training. And a place she never thought she could belong. As Elara fights to prove herself, her bond with the team deepens... especially with the quiet sergeant who sees more than she wants to admit. In the storm of war, survival isn't just about strength. It's about trust, found family, and the courage to let someone in. And on a planet where it never stops raining, Elara might finally find her light.

The peaceful Pabu retirement they all deserve.
