"Hang on, we're coming in a bit close." Tech warned us, feeling the ship approaching at a rapid speed before landing carefully on the platform, hearing the hydraulics hissing out from the cargo bay.

We arrived at Anaxes as expected after hearing Cody's message over the comm unit. Knowing, we, The Bad Batch are always ready for another mission.

I watched the landing platform descend, Hunter stepping out first as he cracked his knuckles with Tech typing on his datapad before glancing up from his screen. Crosshair and I being the "cool beans" of the team and with Wrecker taking off his helmet with a grin on his face.

"The cavalry has arrived!"

"Hell yeah, we did." I muttered under my helmet with a smirk on my face to see Cody standing there with three other regs behind him who held curious looks on their faces.

One by one we begin to take off our helmets, me showing off my brown curls as I had my hair short at the time. Noticing one of the regs standing behind Cody who appears to be a medic, looking back at me with interest.

"These guys are clones? They don't look like clones to me. And what's with the pretty girl?" Kix asked, referring to Jesse as they looked at the group approaching them.

"Sergeant, good to see you again." Cody greeted us, grasping Hunter's hand. "You too, sir."

"This is Hunter." Cody explained to a reg behind him, noticing he was wearing blue war paint on his armor, his rank demonstrating he is a captain. He acknowledged Cody's introduction as Hunter began to explain our late arrival.

"Sorry we're late, Commander. We were putting down an insurrection on Yalbec Prime when your comm came in. Had a few unforeseen...complications." Referring back to the mission as I remember those Yalbecs trying to chase us out of that cave.

*Chuckles* "Ever fought a male Yalbec?" Wrecker teased, pointing to a reg who had a republic insignia tattoo on his head, holding a questioning look on his face.

"Um...no. Can't say I have." He hesitated with Wrecker having a smile on his lips. "You're lucky. Only way to kill 'em is with one of these."

I watched Wrecker pulled out his vibro-knife from the case on his leg armor, showing off the blade to the regs in which they held surprise looks on their faces.

"That's right. Wrecker here cut off the Queen's stinger while she was still alive." Hunter explained before glancing at him for a moment.

"That's why all those Yalbec males tried to eat us." Seeming to misunderstand the situation as Tech stepped in. Correcting Hunter's mistake as I rolled my eyes playfully at Tech's "nerdy—ness."

"Uh, technically, they were trying to mate with us. And, for your information, the stinger of a Yalbec Queen is a delicacy on some planets."

Ah, of course he kept a souvenir. If I know Tech, he must of collected the Queen's stinger the last minute we ran out knowing he'll gather any data he'll be fascinated by learning.
