    Summary

    Because there isn’t nearly enough Crosshair angst for me to read, I’ve decided to write it myself.

    Summary

    “This is treason. If they find out about this, they’ll kill us both. Why are you doing this?”

    Crosshair stared at the other man for a long moment before lifting his helmet and slipping it back on. Silently, he turned back to the ray shield and pressed the button on his vambrace to turn it off before stepping through. As the shield powered back on and he made to step away, he turned back.

    “I don’t know,” he said softly.

    A few months after the events of The Bad Batch, Crosshair struggles to reconcile his choice with the harsh truth of the world around him. He finds enlightenment in the most unlikely of places and realizes he may have made the wrong decision. But is it too late to do something about it?

    Two years after the events of The Bad Batch, Rex reluctantly agrees to allow Hunter and his squad to help him rescue a man who's been captured by the Empire, an Imperial double agent who's cover has been blown. What Hunter thought to be a simple extraction ends up having far greater consequences for their squad than he could have ever anticipated.

    Summary

    Beside Echo, Rex made a harsh, choked noise. In his peripheral vision, he could see him removing his helmet in jerky, stilted movements. Echo removed his as well. He tried to clip his bucket to his belt, but his fingers felt wooden and he missed the clasp so he let it clatter to the ground. Hunter started at the sharp crack of plastoid on metal. Rex didn’t flinch, and neither did Echo.

    “What?” asked Hunter, looking between the two of them. “What’s wrong?” Neither of them answered.

    “Fives?” Echo rasped finally, stepping forward.

     

    ...

    Having met up with Rex and Ahsoka after the fall of the Republic, the Bad Batch and Echo have just one goal: survive. Fives also has one goal - remember who he is.

    Together, they have another: save the GAR, or die trying.

    AKA the one where Fives gets Winter Soldiered.

    Summary

    A prequel story to the Bad Batch show. What happened between their appearance in Clone Wars and the first episode of The Bad Batch?

    A story of how Echo changed from the broken man pulled out of the cryptochamber into the Clone Force 99 member blasting droids in the pilot episode.

    A story of mourning, loss and healing. A story of trauma and recovery. A story of finding a new family and a new life. A story of bonding, of hardship and persevering. The story of a clone that came back to life.

    (This is me trying to give Echo some actual screen time. Watch me try to give the boys some actual personality and relationships.)

    *Updated - Chapter 13 now up!*
