REPORTING OFFICER: Lieutenant Colonel Legion Ordo, CMDR
TO: Admiral Stryker, BGCOM
DATE SUBMITTED: July 15thth, 31 ABY

Legion stands in front of a desk in a dark and empty office. What was once his office, now no longer. For some time he just stands there, reliving all of his past history with the TIE Corps from beginning to now. With some breaths of meditation he begins to speak as if addressing a crowd.

“My departure will not change anything here…nothing will at this point. These halls that once held such great history, will cease to be…hopefully only for a time, but I do not hold those hopes high. Like many others, I’ve just no more love for this battlegroup…or ship,” Legion finishes a brief monologue, before removing his mask and revealing the face many at this point have seen before. His black and red iris eyes look outside the viewport one last time before he begins to speak again.

“Whatever your reason for your choices, know that it will come back to haunt you…You’ve crossed a line that is unforgivable to me…you have killed what little kindness I had for this place…the only thing keeping me…Me.” Legion turns slightly to his left to look behind him and see the squadron of Dark Troopers and Death Troopers all having their blasters trained on Legion. Several Admirals have also shown up to ensure all events here went smoothly, Stryker among them as he began to speak back.

“Enough of the monologues Legion, you have violated orders, repeatedly might I add, to stay on the ship. You kept leaving to meet up with several contacts and you never explain your reasoning why. As if you are just free to do as you please aboard MY ship!” As Stryker kept on his verbal assault towards Legion, the Mandalorian started showing visible signs of frustration as his mask started to crack under the pressure of his grip. Stryker continues despite the signs, “You have left myself, and the rest of Command Staff no choice but to have you removed from the fleet for insubordi-”

Stryker could not finish his sentence as Legion took his mask and smashed it on the desk in front of him, followed by a force stasis that has kept everyone in their place conscious but unable to move. As if time itself was frozen, the Admirals started to fear what the, now former, squadron commander would do next. As Legion looked at his now shattered mask and began to laugh just slightly and sigh a breath of relief. He then quickly lifted his hand up, motioning something to stop. Suddenly, several Mandalorians decloaked from the room, right next to the Admirals, one had a knife close to Stryker's neck.

“Nayc…Ibac ijaat cuyir Pal'vut solus.” Legion spoke to his fellow Mandalorian warriors. As he also walked up to Stryker. For a whole minute Legion just stared back at Stryker, as if planning something in sheer eerie silence. Then a slight smile showed on Legion’s face. Moving closer towards Stryker, he started to speak so that the Chiss Admiral was the only one who could hear him.

“You took away my family…So too will I with yours…one day…make sure your little birds stay out of MY way…Aruetii…” Legion starts to walk with his fellow warriors out of the room. The Force Stasis started to weaken, allowing all the Admirals to start turning their heads towards Legion, but could not get any words out to call for the alarm. As all the warriors were out in the hallway, Legion turned toward his former superiors one last time, and with his iconic demonic smile, his black and red eyes glowing, said only one word to them just before the door slammed shut. “Byeeeeeee”

The Admirals and troopers all released from their stasis started to run out to the hallway to stop Legion, but no one was in sight as they left the room. Calling for General Quarters throughout the ship forcing the entire crew on a manhunt to find Legion and his warriors aboard the ISDII Challenge, no one could find him anywhere. No ship entered or left the hangar, no electrical or scanner problems detected. Legion has left the Challenge…but where did he go?

G'Day Pilots of Thunder Squadron!

Squadron News


Greetings everyone. It is with sadness that I must announce several things here. First off as most are starting to realize, I will be stepping down as Thunder CMDR effectively on the 16th this month and also be stepping into the reserves at the same time. This decision was not an easy one as I have been struggling with debates against myself and others who had wanted me to stay in the TC. However due to certain circumstances that I will not straight up mention, I cannot in my own good conscious stay as an active pilot anymore. This does not mean that you all are losing me completely, as I will still be serving in the respective offices that I am already assisting as well as any others that might need my help.
What does this mean for the squadron, is entirely up to you. However due to some changes happening, it is becoming more than likely that Thunder Squadron will be closing down due to the sheer number loss we had in recent weeks. Perhaps one day Thunder will reactivate again.
It has been truly an honor and a privilege to have served as Thunder’s CMDR for as long as I did, way longer than I had planned or expected. Thank you to each of the pilots that have helped keep Thunder alive for much longer than it originally was going to be. For The Empire!
