Star Wars: The Clone War Chronicles/ Chapter 8: Welcome to Felucia

19 BBY

Character: Captain Carg

On the elegant planet of Felucia in the year 19 BBY, there lay a territorial dispute between the native radicals and the Republic base. Trying to use diplomatic means of solving the issue, Carg still could not convince Yorn Nuro (dictator of Felucia) and his gang to peacefully give up the situation at hand. Carg walked over to the Felucia entry officer, Parsec. "Sir, is everything alright?"

Carg inhaled and exhaled air gratefully. "Prepare all military personnel for an impending attack," Carg turned to clone Commando Boss. "Boss, evacuate every civilian around this facility."

"You got it, Carg. Be careful, my main man," Boss replied in his uniquely deep clone voice. They saluted each other. Boss hustled to a BARC speeder bike and raced on through the surface that resembled an Earth-like jungle. The sun decided to set on this potentially ill-fated day for the Republic, leaving behind a glorious orange atmosphere. Boss got a hold of a village's chairman and told him to evacuate everyone to the Republic's safezone on the planet. "This is urgent, sir. Please!"

"Alright, but get out of my way," the chairman of Felucia said in his proper British accent. Boss turned around and stood over him. All the chairman did was pretend nothing had happened and move on to evacuate everyone from the nearby villages and the one they were currently in.

"Move! Move! Let's go!" Boss exclaimed as he spotted Yorn Nuro and his gang of pirates scoping out the evacuation. He pretended not to notice Yorn Nuro; if Nuro did notice him, then Nuro would infer that Carg and his troopers would be getting ready. Boss darted for a house with windows and peeked through to see what that pirate scum was doing. Nuro looked through his macrobinoculars and spotted Boss, eyeing him... and all he did was smirk. Boss quickly notified Carg via his wrist-communicator which issued a red alert at the base. With that red alert being commenced, it triggered another red alert to the Republic Blockade orbiting Felucia. The fleet admiral sent fighter squadrons down to the planet to aid the Felucia base.

"All available units, move up! We defend this station and all of Felucia's inhabitants!" Carg yelled. Nuro's pirates and even some Separatist battle droids popped out of nowhere to initiate an attack. An unforgiving battle soon ensued. A clone trooper guard/sergeant named Geo moved up and blasted a few radical pirates. Parsec entered a tower that was connected to their base and began to snipe at any incoming target. Yorn Nuro could sense a bit of hesitation within Captain Carg. Yorn studied Carg a while back whilst planning this assault, and he found out that Carg had a hatred of all violence against life-forms. Now, there was proof. He could tel that Carg shot only at the droids instead of shooting at his pirates too.

Boss shot his commando blaster from the brush until the heat died down. He raced in the base's direction and immediately tried to contact command. "Man, you copy?" he asked referring to Carg. "Anyone?" When their base was in Boss's vision, he could instantly and easily tell that their was some sort of standoff with Carg, Geo, Yorn Nuro, and one of Yorn Nuro's gang members. Boss could see a bunch of dead clone troopers on the surface.

"You will not get anymore of my men killed. I won't let you," Carg threatened.

Yorn Nuro laughed in a hideous voice that sounded relevant to Amadeus Mozart from his personalized movie. "This just got a little interesting!" he cackled.

"How so?" Geo asked. One of Nuro's pupils slid to the direction of his own astromech droid who was about to lethally shock Geo. Right after Geo got electrocuted, Carg let go of all of his mental weaknesses and opened fire upon Yorn Nuro and one of his gang members. Boss was astonished to see that Carg finally did what was right- at long last terminate a fowl life-form. The native civilians sprinted over in cheer as Carg felt a slight feel of satisfaction. However, he went right over to Sergeant Geo and ordered medbay to reopen after the doctor just died.

A ceremony took place in the heart of Felucia and Carg along with the other remaining survivors got rewarded the a medal of honor. Firecrackers boomed in the distance and lots sang. Geo, who was walking with a cane went over to his advanced recon captain, sensing that something was up. "Sir, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Geo. It's just that I fear others won't be..."
