Tired from the climb and the heat they still had three clicks to the pick up point. The crater was still on fire and the smoke would draw attention fast. "Glad the depth of the reactor forced the blast vertical. No way we would of survived." Rex nodded at Bull. 

"Ten minutes then we move out. Check weapons and drop your armor its irradiated junk now." Rex's brow furrowed at the thought of four unarmored troopers with him taking point and the only one in armor. Couldn't be helped. Tossing the armor down the crater would ensure no one wearing it. A few sips from the water reserves and Rex was giving the order to move out.

Moving north by north east the squad maintained silence as they moved. A hand rose from Rex and the squad froze in place. A set of signals directed the squad's attention right. Droids and a girl.... The squad took cover, except for Bull. Something took over, an instinct, more powerful then any mental conditioning. He ran to her. 

Rex stood not believing what he was witnessing. And yet something in his gut told him Bull was right to do so. "Engage." Before he really had a thought about what he was doing his rifle was raised and Rex was shooting the droids. The squad followed the order.

Bull was in a full run and even though the droid closest to the girl manage to shoot him in the leg it was luckily the metal one. Bull dove for the ground sliding his body and a hand around the blaster from the this familiar stranger. As the robot acquired the target bull was already pulling the trigger sending a bast to the robots head. Bull was unable to get to his feet. On one knee he looked at the girl and asked, "Are you alright?" While red blaster fire was taking out the remaining droids.

Rex gave the cease fire signal, and the skirmish was over. "Ten droids sir." Rex wasn't sure who said that because he marched strait over and punched Bull to the ground. Then offered a hand to help him up. The feeling was so familiar there was no mistaking it. It took no conscious thought on his part. Rex watched his hand move to his belt and pull the note from the pouch. "You have your mothers eyes."
