//Shogun stood in the bay of the LAAT, gazing into the yellow plains of dantooine through the half open door. The rest of his squad stood behind him, grasping onto the mesh netting above them to stay upright. The gunship soared across the endless field of grass, low enough to blow the dead stems out of the ground and to leave a trail of compressed sod in it’s trail. Gradually, the endless fields of grass began to turn from immersive towering blades to small stems and dirt.
Blunt hoisted himself onto the republic walker behind the other men on the gunship as both side doors of it's doors unfolded fully.
“Alright boys, these are the coordinates jester gave us. Have fun down there.”
“You heard him boys. let’s go.”
The rear door of the gunship unlatched, and the walker leaped out. Shogun was the next to jump, followed by Killi and Krit. They touched the ground, and a plume of dust materialized from the landing site as the at-rt began to unfold.
“Remember men, we stay low, and watch for any seppies or settlements. We scout until nightfall. Then we contact Muck, and move to the nearest village. Am I understood?,” asked shogun.
“Sir yes sir!”
“Krit, are you picking up any unusual signals?”
“No sir. In fact, I’m not picking up anything aside from our comms.”
“Alright then. Let’s get moving, we have plenty of land to cover.”
Shogun withdrew his macrobinoculars, and the squad began to march.
-
“How’s the leg blunt?” asked krit.
“Ah I'm fine, that bacta really did some miracles for me.”
“But you still get to ride on that thing. Now I'm wishing that I took that fall, my legs are killing me.”
“Yeah that’s what happens when you carry around a big kriffing comms array on your back krit”
“Oh shut up.”
-
“Any luck krit? Are you picking up any signals?”
“No. How could I be? There’s absolutely nothing around. Just a bunch of kriffing dirt.”
“I don’t know, I kinda like it,” Blunt remarked, “It’s nice to see new things around the galaxy.”
“We were bred for war, not sightseeing.”
“There has to be more to life than just war, krit.”
“Not for me.”
-
“Alright men,” Said Shogun, “Let’s stop here. Krit, contact the base camp, update them on what we’ve found.”
“So, nothing.”
“Woah. We have beasts at nine o’ clock,” said blunt.
The men came to a sudden halt.
“What in Kriff are those things?,” Exclaimed krit.
“Thunes,” said shogun.
“What?”
“Thunes.” Shogun paused.
“You’ve seen one of those things before?”
“Protectors like me saw lots of fauna during our training and some like this, we just watched and admired.”
“They’re beautiful,'' Blunt replied.
“The galaxy holds so many beautiful creatures, That's part of the reason why I fight.”
“We should fight for the glory of the republic,” said krit.
“Sure, sure. The republic’s all well and good, but why do you fight?”
“I fight for the republic!”
“But why do you fight for them?”
“I was bred for it. Bred to fight. The Republic is the reason why I am here.”
"Sure, sure.”
Krit paused, and stared at the grey beasts. Shogun and the others trudged on, and krit soon followed.//
