Cody walks in.
Cody: Come on, Rex. Time to move out.
Rex: Fives, Echo, and before that, Hevy. There's so many troopers gone.
Cody: (nods, looking down) Yeah, regular folk don't understand. Sometimes in war, it's hard to be the one that survives.
Rex: That's what I'm worried about.
Cody: Well, what do you mean?
Rex: I didn't tell the Generals. They might think I'm crazy. In fact, you might think I'm crazy.
Cody: What is it?
Rex: .... I think Echo's alive.
Cody: That's not possible. He died at the Citadel.
Rex: The way the droids are countering us here, the strategies I'm using, they're all old battle plans Echo and I drew up together.
Cody: Look, Rex, I hear what you're saying. But it's just not possible.
Rex: I hope you're right. But the fact is, Echo's fingerprints are all over these Separatist strategies.
Cody: Rex. You have to admit what you're saying is a long shot at best, and most likely, misplaced hope. I need you to be focused on this.
Rex: I-I know. I know. Don't worry. So what squad are we taking in?
Cody: (looks back) Clone Force 99.
Rex and Cody walk out of the bunks and meet up with Kix and Jesse.
Jesse: I've heard mixed things about these guys.
Kix: They have a 100% success rate.
Jesse: It's not that they win, it's how they win that worries me.
A ship zooms down to the platform, blowing supplies everywhere and making the landing crew run or back away.
Rex: So why haven't I heard of this squad?
Cody: Experimental unit Clone Force 99, they're defective clones with, uh... desirable mutations.
Rex: 99, eh? Nice touch.
Cody: They call themselves, "The Bad Batch."
The ramp lowers and five Clones in black, red, and white armor all descend the steps.

The Bad Batch x Clone OC
AdventureSlash was basically the "cut-throat" one of Clone Force 99. His motto was "slice and dice to pay the price", though with the Empire's rise, he has a feeling that line's gonna be dust in the wind. Especially with a kid tagging along for the ride.
