Capítulo 26: Captured Padawan
Dageer was looking to the windows. Continuous white and light blue stripes of light were passing outside. They were on light speed, going to Raxus Prime.
Dageer was on the 'mess' - how clones called the canteen - with Hell Squad. He have accompanied Commander Keeli for over three hours, learning how a commander should, well, command.
Although it was little time, he have learned much, including the experiences that Keeli had when he himself was being trained. Now, Cell, recovering from his leg injury was describing to Three-four and Dab how he got hurt, but they weren't buying it.
"... and I was like 'destroyers!', and everyone jumped out of the way. If I wasn't so close I would have been able to destroy those clankers before they could even shoot."
"Yeah, yeah. All I remember was he crying for my help. 'Brain, save me please!' Hahahaha!"
"Hahahahaha!"
At that moment Commander Keeli entered the mess. One of the clones near the entrance saw him, got up and said.
"Commander on site!"
Every clone stopped talking, got up, and stood upright. Some, as Cell, struggled a little from their injuries before they got up.
"At ease. Dagger, General Di wants you on the bridge. Everyone else, keep eating."
Dageer was surprised, as it hadn't passed much time since he left the bridge. Cell looked at him as if he was going to martial court, but said something totally different.
"Ah, the price of fame. Can't even eat with us normal clones anymore."
This got a round of laughter not only from Hell Squad but also the surrounding clones. Dageer caught up with Keeli and tried to catch the situation.
"What happened commander?"
"General Kenobi and his padawan were scouting Raxus Prime, but apparently his padawan was captured. You will understand better when General Di talks to you."
General Di and General Kenobi were discussing something through the hologram table. General Di welcomed Dageer and went straight to the point.
"Dageer, Master Kenobi's padawan, Skywalker was captured by Count Dooku and a bounty hunter named Cydon Prax. Master Kenobi's forces are severely depleted. I'm sending Hell Squad and and Steel Company to replenish his troops. He has some ideas about young Skywalker situation. You are to follow his orders."
"What about the ground invasion general? Will we be able to handle it without a battalion?"
"Let me worry about that Commander Keeli. I have already asked for help from Master Windu. He will be coming to support us. Now I need to debate with Master Kenobi. You are dismissed."
"Yes sir."
Dageer left the bridge, thoughts spinning in his mind. On one side he wasn't happy leaving his general side, on the other he could see the importance of reinforcing General Kenobi.
He didn't return to the canteen, but went to his quarters. He needed to rest before they arrived, as he would have a lot of work.
Another few hours passed and they arrived at Zhorta System, near Tobali System. Kenobi fleet was there. Hell Squad and Steel Battalion took the transports to Kenobi ship. Dageer, together with Steel Company captain, Captain Rozal, went to see General Kenobi.
General Kenobi had a cordial air around him. It wasn't the first time Dageer experienced the calming effects that being around a jedi had. Maybe it was what they called the Force.
However, even if he looked calm on the outside, Dageer was certain that he was really worried about his padawan. He was right, as Kenobi's words proved.
"Captain Rozal, Dageer, as you alredy know my reckless padawan was captured. He kind of deserved it, but is my duty as his master to save him. I, together with Commander Cody and General Di will go stop Count Dooku plans on Raxus Prime and save Anakin, although I believe he is alredy devising a plan to escape by himself."
