Chapter 1: The Waterfall
Warnings: None
Genre: Fantasy/Short Story
The limestone rocks dig into my already peeling fingers as I grasp another hold, hauling myself up to the edge of the cliff. I’m greeted by the sight of lush green trees looming over me, shielding me from the sun’s rays. I look behind me, reveling in the view of the sparkling blue ocean.
“I’ll explore up here and abseil down in a bit!” I shout down at the person belaying me, taking a few steps into the cluster of trees before untying the rope from my harness.
I set my bag down next to a tree, collapsing down onto a soft bed of leaves, inhaling that sweet familiar forest smell I recognise from home. I sigh as I lean back against the tree, staring out at the islands clustered together around the one I’m at. It’s so much better than being in the city. There, the constant need for caution strangles me, but here, the freedom comforts me.
It’s been 10 years since my parents divorced. I think I’m coping well. At least, I hope so. Climbing’s the only thing that makes me feel alive.
I wish I could stay here forever.
I stuff my water bottle back into my bag, zipping it up and throwing it over my shoulders, before standing up and walking into the maze of trees that stands in front of me.
For a cliff, there’s a hefty number of trees up here. I keep walking for a few minutes, the thick canopy blocking most sunlight. Tree roots litter the ground, threatening to trip me every few steps.
I hear birds singing. Perhaps there’s a nest nearby, with eggs inside. I wonder if they’d taste good.
As I continue walking on, the singing of the birds starts to get drowned out by what sounds like a…waterfall? I don’t recall ever seeing a waterfall on the map. The leaves crunch under my footsteps. Until I realise they aren’t leaves anymore. They’re bones. Not human bones, but eerily similar.
I should probably head back.
I turn around to walk back to the cliff, but a little voice in my head tells me to keep going.
What do you have to lose anyways?
Besides my life and my money?
Could be fun. Don’t be a wimp.
Taking a deep breath to calm my nerves, I continue walking ahead. The bones staring from the ground sending shivers down my spine. The sound of the waterfall keeps getting louder. A few moments later, I stop in my tracks.
I’m greeted with a black frame with its interior glowing a dull blue. The waterfall sounds seem to be coming from inside. The frame is covered with vines which hang over the blue light of the portal. The pulsing portal seemed to emit a mysterious yet inviting aura, and I can’t help but unconsciously drift towards it.
Excuse me, what?! Um…I should probably go now before I get sucked in and die.
As I turn around and take my first step away from the portal, I feel a sharp tug at my core and I find myself plummeting down a waterfall, water splashing into my eyes and mouth and nose, barely any time to scream as I hit a pool of water feet-first, plunging into the dark depths. Yet it’s surprisingly warm.
I quickly swim up, hanging onto my bag as I break the surface, taking a gasp of air.
It smells sweet. Like rainwater. Glowing blue flowers float on the surface of the pool, seemingly undisturbed by the cascade of water just a few meters away. In fact, the whole pool seems undisturbed. Bag in hand, I swim over to land and haul myself up, scanning my surroundings, still shaken from the fall.
What…was that…?
The terrain is vibrant. Too vibrant. Layers of red and white and teal and blue form the cliffside that the waterfall flows down from.
Am I dreaming?
I pinch myself to check, my heart rate skyrocketing as I feel the pain.
No no no... This isn’t good. I need to get back.
I run a few steps backwards, hoping to get a good view of whatever I just feel through, but all I see is an empty black frame. It would be too risky to free climb back up, especially since this is unknown territory.
The ground looks a somewhat like a staircase. Layer after layer of vibrant-coloured rocks lead down to a little village in the distance. Trying to calm my nerves and failing miserably, I sling my bag over my shoulders and head down the “stairs”, towards the village.
The sky is painted yellow and orange and red, as if the sun is setting. But I see no sun. It will probably get dark soon. I start to pick up the pace as I worry about what may come out in the night, despite the seemingly peaceful surroundings.
The colourful gravel crunches beneath my feet. But soon, the ground starts to even out. The layers start to disappear, leaving flat ground for me to walk smoothly on. Night has fallen, the sky now a dark blue spreading as far as I can see.
The gravel slowly starts to turn into a tiled path. There are houses on both sides of the path, their lights giving off a warm yellow glow. I smell sugar donuts coming from a short building that has the words “Baked Stuff” on it.
My stomach growls.
I want donuts.
I head into the building, a little golden bell that’s connected to the door ringing as I walk in.
“Welcome!” a…human-shaped mass of stone says. Its arms and legs look exactly like the cliff with the waterfall. I blink, pinching myself again to make sure I’m not dreaming.
“Um…hi,” I wave awkwardly at the stone person.
“Prices are stated here,” the stone person says, pointing to the little pieces of paper with a number written on them.
“I’m sorry…but what is the currency here, and how do I get some?” I ask.
The stone person narrows its eyes. “You’re new here, aren’t you?”
It knows?!
I stand still, my eyes scanning the stone person up and down, looking out for any threats, body tensing up.
“...Yes…” I say with a strained voice.
The stone person bursts out laughing. “Look at your face!” It doubles over, clutching its abdomen, before regaining its composure and standing up straight. It’s slightly shorter than me with its short, stubby legs. It passes me a donut with some blue glowing cookie crumbs on it.
“Here. It’s on the house. Made from Waterfall Flowers,” it says, and I take the donut, hesitantly taking a bite.
The sweet yet sour flavour explodes on my tongue, and it reminds me of lemon sorbet.
“Good, isn’t it?” the stone person asks, the rocks on its face moving to form something resembling a smile. I nod, my mouth full.
“If you’re looking for a place to stay for the night, there’s an inn a few houses down. Tell the receptionist that you’re my friend and you should get a free room. Have a good night!” the stone person calls as I walk out of the shop, waving goodbye. “Thank you!”
I walk down the path, devouring the donut in a few bites, before reaching the inn. Another stone person stands at the reception, little blue glowing rocks embedded in its body.
“Hi…uh…I'm friends with the person at the bakery…she said I could get a free room here?” I walk up to the counter, avoiding eye contact.
“Oh? Sure! Yours is room 130,” the receptionist says, passing me a glowing blue flower.
I take the flower, unsure of what to do with it, but not daring to question the receptionist. Something feels off about these people. It probably doesn’t help that they’re made out of literal stone.
Soon, I reach room 130, finding a flower-shaped lock on the door. I press the flower into the lock, causing it to glow before the door swings open in front of me.
The room is carpeted, a single bed in the middle and a toilet near the entrance. Without hesitation, I throw my bag to the floor and fall onto the bed, letting the softness hug me to sleep.
When I wake up, I’m no longer in the room. Layers of rock press against my back. Glowing blue vines immobilise me. I hear the waterfall.
What’s going on?!
I struggle futilely against the vines. It smells sweet. Almost too sweet. Panic starts to set deep in my gut, rendering me frozen.
Some of the rocks on the walls slide down next to me, clinging to the vines almost as if trying not to fall. A few move to box me in against the cliff, forming a large humanoid shape. Little blue lights decorate its surface.
A collection of voices ring out simultaneously. I hear the shop owner and receptionist’s voice, along with a few others I don’t recognise.
“Hehe. You really are like the others.”
Into The Dark is an original story that I came up with and is currently ongoing
its a some dystopian stuff that I abandoned lol
Chapter 14
Typing: "I shouldn't have called Rex "father" in Mando'a. That just made the goodbye a lot harder."
I'm currently trying to take a shit in the toilet, and it's been half an hour since I went in because I'm typing out how I just joined the batch on my datapad. I hear Wrecker literally banging on the toilet door.
"HEY, HOW MUCH LONGER YOU GONNA BE IN THERE FOR!?"
I roll my eyes and groan.
"ALMOST DONE!" I shout back. We usually take a shit in the urinals, and then put it in a bag and then just throw it out when we arrive on a planet or something. I remember toothpick boi literally left his shit in there once, and when I went in I had to pressurize my helmet to make sure that I don't pass out.
I returned the favor by sabotaging his shower water. Totally did not burn half of his hair off for a while.
Then Crosshair goes to hog the toilet for like an hour when he knows I seriously need to take a piss. And then I push him off a cliff on one of our missions. And then he shoots me in the shoulder "accidentally" on another missions.
Hunter literally has to step in and make sure that we don't kill each other.
Still, he started it. Not me.
We've returned to Kamino once since Echo and I joined the batch. The regs definitely hate us for some reason. I wasn't that hated in the 501st, but the moment I joined the batch, a lot of the other regs started to dislike me. Probably jealous.
At least Kix and Jesse don't mind me.
We had a cafeteria fight that one time we returned to Kamino, and I didn't really wanna beat up the regs, so it wasn't until one of them interrupted my knife spinning that I decided to throw a tray at him.
As I finish bagging up my shit and walk out of the toilet, Wrecker literally runs in, I'm guessing he really needed to take a piss, and I toss the bag into the trash chute.
"I assume that you have constipation, from the extended period of time that you take to...do your business," Tech says, pressing some buttons on his datapad as we fly through hyperspace.
Wrecker comes out from the toilet. "Oh man, it really stinks in there," he says.
"Surprised?" Crosshair asks, and I glance at him for a moment, knowing that he probably has a smirk on his face.
"We're arriving up on Kaller," Tech reports.
I look out of the window as we land on the snowy planet in a small clearing, big enough for the Marauder to land in. Jedi Padawan Caleb Dume told us that he'd meet us here.
We put on our helmets and walk out of the ship, and expected, we see Caleb in front of us, who shows us to an area which overlooks the battlefield where General Depa Bilaba and other clones are fighting against some tanks and B1 battle droids.
"Looks easy enough," I cross my arms as I look down.
"We're right behind you kid," Hunter says as Caleb slides down the hill to join up with his Master and the other regs.
"Wrecker, rockslide, Crosshair, up top," Hunter says. Crosshair nods and heads to a position where he can snipe some clankers.
"If you shoot me this time, I swear I'm gonna mess with your sniper," I warn him before heading over to the others.
Wrecker pushes a big rock down the hill in the general direction of the battle droids, and we follow it, running down the hill behind it as it crushes a bunch of battle droids.
"Make a hole!" Wrecker shouts and we get to work. I manage to steal a few of Tech's kills, slicing off a clanker's head before he can activate the stun grenade on its back.
"That was unnecessary!" Tech shouts as I throw a knife at a droid's head, and stab another one that just came up behind me.
I see some droids getting shot down from above, and I can safely assume that's Crosshair. One shot whizzes past my shoulder, and I take that as a warning not to mess with his sniper.
"Crosshair, let's get these tanks moving," I hear Hunter say over the comms.
"Sir, yes, sir," Crosshair replies, shooting some stuff that links the tanks together, and Wrecker pushes the tanks over the edge while I take out the remaining clankers.
Tech manages to explode the last 4 battle droids with a grenade and I stay out of the way, because I don't make the same mistake twice.
When all the clankers are dead, we walk out of the smoke, Hunter and I sheathing our knives. Hunter takes off his helmet, Crosshair slides down the hill and joins us, and Wrecker rips off the head of that last remaining droid that he slung over his back.
We walk over to the other regs and the kid, and General Bilaba, I'm walking behind with Wrecker and Crosshair.
"If you're done hiding down there I suggest you launch a counterattack," Hunter says. "Another droid battalion's approaching."
Well, where's our "thank you" at?
"The General is the one who gives the orders around here," the reg who I assume is the captain says.
I cross my arms.
"He's right, Captain. This is our chance. Launch the counterattack," General Bilaba says.
"Yes, General," the reg captain replies. "All right men lets go!"
General Bilaba, Caleb and the reg captain walk up to us, and the rest of the batch, besides Tech, take off their helmets. Probably for Tech to hide his receding hairline.
"There you are, little Jedi," Wrecker says, looking down at Caleb. "You missed all the fun."
"Watching your team in action was the fun," Caleb replies.
As it should be.
"Care to introduce your new friends, Caleb?" General Bilaba asks.
"Yes Master. This is Wrecker, Hunter, Echo,"
Echo salutes.
"Tech,"
Tech's looking down at his datapad and gives a small wave.
"Crosshair,"
Toothpick boi takes out the toothpick from his mouth and gives a downwards nod of respect.
"And Aris."
I give him that signature move of mine with my helmet still on.
(That's not Aris that's Tech who steals her signature move in season 2 episode 4)
"While I'm not sure "fun" is the sentiment I would express, I agree with my Padawan," General Bilaba says. "Your exploits were quite impressive."
"Exploits?" Wrecker can be really dumb sometimes.
"Don't overthink it, Wrecker," Crosshair and I say at the same time, and he glares at me before walking to another position, probably to get me out of his sight.
"Now, would one of you please explain where my actual reinforcements are?" General Bilaba asks.
"Rerouted to the capital," Hunter replies. "We're all you're getting."
"Ha! We're all you need," Wrecker says confidently.
"Actually, if my intel is correct, the general will not need any of us," Tech speaks up. "The Clone War may soon be over."
"Better tell that to the clankers headed our way," the reg captain says.
"I am referring to the encrypted comm chatter," Tech looks down at his datapad. "Clone intelligence is reporting Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi has found and found and engaged General Grievous and Utapau."
Engaged as in which type of engaged?
"If he captures or kills Grievous, the Separatist command structure will collapse," Echo says, and because I'm getting slightly bored, I walk away to join Crosshair.
I see Hunter and the others heading off, so Crosshair and I run and join them, with Caleb following.
Mid-run, we notice that Caleb's lagging behind, and when we look back, we see the regs firing blaster shots at General Bilaba.
I hear "execute order 66" through my comms, but I don't know what it means, and I don't think the batch know either.
We see General Bilaba get shot down, and I am more confused than the time Tech forced me to memorize hand signals.
Caleb's running away from the regs, and the batch and I run up to him.
"Stay away from me!" he shouts, before running off into the forest, lightsaber ignited.
"Kid, wait!" Hunter shouts in a futile attempt to stop him.
"What-what just happened?" Echo asks.
"The comm channel is repeating only one directive," Tech says. "Execute Order 66."
"Yeah, I heard that too," Wrecker says. "What's Order 66?"
"I am not certain," Tech sighs.
"Echo, Tech, talk to the reg captain. Find out what you can. Crosshair, Aris, we'll track down the kid and make sure nothing happens to him. Wrecker, stall anyone who tries to follow us," Hunter says, and Echo and Tech run off to talk to the captain. Hunter, Crosshair and I run into the forest, sliding down a few slopes and running past some trees. I split off slightly from Crosshair and Hunter, but keeping them in my line of sight, looking for Caleb.
I see some snow falling down to the ground not too far away, and Hunter and Crosshair seem to notice that as well.
Crosshair runs up a rock to get the high ground and Hunter signals for us to stop. "He's close."
Crosshair scans up the trees for the kid and I do the same, hoping to find Caleb before him.
"There," Crosshair says, and I look in the direction that he's looking in. I see Caleb up in the trees, and I mutter, "Great." under my helmet.
That's what you get for trying to compete with a dude that has optifine zoom irl.
"Come on down, kid," Hunter says. "We're here to help."
And then Crosshair adjusts the scope on his rifle and shoots at Caleb, who deflects it with his lightsaber.
"Liar!" he shouts, before jumping into the air and out of our sight.
"What are you doing?!" Hunter asks, probably half-shocked. Crosshair jumps down from the rock and lands next to me.
"Following orders."
"We don't even know what the order is. Stand down until we know what's going on," Hunter says, shoving Crosshair by the chest slightly.
Flashback
Fives appears on the holotransmission in front of me.
"Hey ad'ika," he says. "I'm on Kamino right now, and we're tryna take out Tup's inhibitor chip. There's something seriously wrong with him. He shot General Tiplar and keeps saying "Good soldiers follow orders", I'll be back in a few days to do a Battle Royale duo in COD with you, alright?"
I nod.
"Cya Fives. Don't do anything too stupid or I'll hack your account and spend all your COD credits."
"Don't worry ad'ika. When have I ever done anything stupid?"
The holotransmission ends.
Tup's not behaving normally. So there's a possibility that they'll terminate him. Troopers don't usually say...
Flashback ends.
"Good soldiers follow orders."
My breath hitches, and my eyes widen under my helmet.
Crosshair runs off to join Hunter, and I follow behind.
Good soldiers follow orders...the inhibitor chip...
"Hunter, you've got regs inbound," Wrecker says through the comms as Crosshair and I scan the area for Caleb as we run.
"We have a situation," Tech's voice comes in.
"Tell me something I don't know, Tech."
"It appears the regs have been ordered to execute the Jedi."
"What? Which Jedi?"
"All of them. They're saying the Jedi have committed treason."
"That would explain things," Crosshair says.
Mhm. The clones wouldn't usually turn on the Jedi so easily, but because of their inhibitor chip, they have no choice. It forces them to follow orders.
"Good soldiers follow orders."
Crosshair's chip is working.
We have to take it out. Just like how Fives did.
"It doesn't begin to explain things," Hunter replies.
"I suggest you get back here," Tech says.
"Can't. Haven't found the kid yet."
Crosshair, still scanning the area, holds up his rifle and shoots a branch which Caleb's standing on, and Caleb falls to the ground along with the branch.
He ignites his lightsaber and runs at us, Crosshair shooting at him and Caleb deflecting the blaster shots. I take out my pistol and start shooting at him as well, because if I wanna get Crosshair's inhibitor chip out, I'll have to earn his trust. I'm not trying to hit Caleb though, I'm just shooting in his general direction.
"Crosshair, Aris, stand down!" Hunter orders as Caleb jumps from one rock to another, and Crosshair takes out his pistol and shoots at him. Caleb slashes at Crosshair's rifle and it's damaged.
Then he kicks Crosshair who goes rolling backwards into a tree, and is knocked out, and then I'm still firing in Caleb's general direction, and he slashes at my arm with his lightsaber and kicks me into a tree as well.
Before I pass out, all I can feel is the burn of the slash wound in my arm.
A few moments later, I open my eyes and see Crosshair standing up, rubbing his head. I stand up as well, grabbing my pistol with my good arm, and we run to a cliff where Hunter's looking across to the other side.
"Where's the Jedi?" Crosshair asks.
"I stunned him when he jumped. He didn't make it," Hunter replies.
Crosshair and I look down the cliff where Caleb supposedly fell, and I turn on my heat visor looking for the body.
There's nothing there, so I can safely assume the inhibitor chip doesn't affect Hunter.
As the regs arrive, Crosshair and I walk away, and I try to ignore the burning feeling in my arm.
We head back to the others and we board the Marauder, I sit in the seat next to Crosshair and plan out my next few moves. I'm receiving a bit of a weird look from Hunter as he occasionally glances at me and Crosshair.
The chip could affect any one of us. It may not be just Crosshair. Just keep on acting until you get the chance to take his inhibitor chip out. Maybe when he's sleeping, just stun him and drag him to the medbay.
Wait...if every clone is following order 66, then...
Rex. Rex could also be a victim of the chip.
Don't think about that.
Don't think about that.
Just focus on your mission now.

Chapter 2: The Darkness Comes
(casual reminder that this story won't be finished unless someone really really wants me to)
Word count: 1.1k
Warnings: War, violence
As I walk out of the office, I can feel many eyes on me. The enemy are not the only ones who have heard of the Demon of The Other Realm. They admire me for my tactics, for not holding back when faced with a choice to kill. That's something most of the others don't have.
It's become instinct now to survive, alone if I have to. Most of the other mech pilots would give their lives up for their brothers in arms. That's weakness. And the Demon of The Other Realm shows no weakness. I will not give my life for anyone on the frontline.
I am called to my next battle in a few hours. I arrive there in a matter of minutes with my mech, which I call Eclipse's Fury. It's shield is now repaired from the previous battle. My mech always gets first dibs when it comes to repairs.
I always feel slightly uneasy when I look down from Eclipse's cockpit down at the battle below, wondering if there are any people who are like me with their metal limbs fighting for their lives down there. But today there is no uneasiness, it almost feels like something is coming home to me.
The enemy mechs are already gathered there, their guns ready to fire. I dive, shield raised to block some of the incoming fire. I get my sword out, soaring upwards to stab one mech from below.
The enemy mechs scatter and fire from far away. I chase after the one with the heavy gun.
"Come here," I smirk. For most people, travelling at this speed would cause them to feel unfocused, but I'm as alert as ever.
I increase my thrusters to max, and catch up with the mech with the heavy gun. It gets out its sword, and clashes with mine.
Under my sword arm, the laser gatling gun there fire, piercing the enemy's cockpit and the light fades from its mech and it falls.
Suddenly, I feel a mech ram into me from behind. I elbow it in the back, one of its hands lets go, but the other is still holding on tight to one of my thrusters, crushing it.
My mech is unstable. Red lights flash in my cockpit showing the damage. I switch my sword to reverse grip and stab the enemy mech holding onto me in the side, while holding my shield up the block the fire from the others.
The enemy mech lets go of my thrusters and falls. My own mech twists to the side where the thruster was destroyed, so now I'm at an awkward angle and a part of my mech is vulnerable to attack.
I get out my gatling guns and fire at the rest, managing to hit around half of them before spiraling in the air and crashing to the ground.
My cockpit is cracked. Wiring from the cockpit digs into my skin, and my metal arm is disabled. I hear gunfire around me, explosions and the sound of flames.
Show no weakness.
My anger at myself numbs the pain. It fuels me. I cannot fail. I must survive. That's all I've ever done.
The enemy mechs land on the ground as I push Eclipse up. I calculate my odds. My shield's still intact, my swords are still sharp, my guns are out of ammo, and it's 5 enemy mechs against 1.
I like these odds.
Their guns are pointed at me, but they're hesitating, giving me enough time to use one of my thrusters to crash into one of the mechs, stabbing it in the cockpit with my sword and I get to my feet.
Suddenly, I feel a rumbling in the ground below me. The air is moving unusually, I can somehow sense it.
It feels...almost welcoming. Like I'm returning to some of my brothers in arms after a hard-fought battle. The enemy mechs are also distracted by the disturbance.
I activate my sword as I charge towards them, slicing 2 of them in half before the other mechs regain their senses.
They fire at me again. I raise my shield, blocking their attacks. Their guns show no sign of low ammo. My shield is glitching out, it's taking too much damage. Their laser bullets get a few hits on Eclipse. One of them pierces my cockpit, hitting me in the stomach.
I wince as the cauterized wound makes me feel breathless. My legs give way and Eclipse falls to the ground. I grit my teeth as I stick my sword into the ground, trying to help myself get up. Pain courses through my body. Not something I haven't felt before. I see one of the enemy mechs raise their sword and ready to stab it at my cockpit.
Remember the guy who took your arm?
This memory always haunts me. It drives me to fight harder.
As the sword comes down to my cockpit, I block it with my sword, straining to keep it away from my cockpit, as I fight through the haze of pain of wires digging into my skin.
I push the sword of the mech away before swiftly stabbing it in the cockpit. The other mech now starts firing at me again. Most of the lasers hit Eclipse's armour, but a few pierce my cockpit and now I have 3 holes in my chest.
I still fight on. I won't die like this.
Suddenly, a cloud of darkness envelops the enemy mechs and the battlefield. Black clouds...on the ground? Is the pain making me hallucinate or something...
I run away from the darkness as the enemy mechs disappear from view. I feel breathless from my wounds, but they seem to be healing faster than usual. At least, fast enough for me to survive.
I just keep running as I see the Darkness rise over soldiers from both realms, slamming down on them like a giant wave.
I see some lights in the Darkness, I can sense smoke and fire in the cloud. I keep hearing screaming, from I don't know where, and it's driving me insane.
I can feel burning. It's not Eclipse's wires. It feels like a flamethrower burning me.
I don't look back. I just keep flying away. Tendrils of darkness reach out from the cloud itself and try to hook onto Eclipse.
My remaining thruster is overheating, it won't be able to hold out for much longer. I feel something grab onto one of Eclipse's legs, weighing me down, pulling me into the Darkness.
I activate my sword and try to cut the Darkness from my leg, but it just moves around my sword and keeps its grip.
For the first time in a while, I feel that choking sensation of fear as I am pulled into the Darkness.
we’re in the endgame now
HOLY SHIT I NEVER REALISED AAAAAAA
It took me a while to realize what Hunter meant when he said this to Echo. I was rewatching Clone Wars season 7 and I gasped--
Hunter basically said that Echo's welcome to come back to them. That he has a place in their squad, their family, even if he has a different path 😭😭😭
