Cannon opts for a smile.
"Agreed."
Suddenly a Mando jogs up to them.
"Sir, te alor just cleared us for take off. You're needed at your post with the raider division."

[i]Charlie sighs.[/i] "That's your que to leave. I hope you come back safe, Cannon."
-
"Hey, if I can survive you guys, I can survive a bunch of idiots in plastice armor. Besides, this time I've got something to come back to. I'll see you in about a week vod."
-
[i]Charlie bows before he starts to walk off and wave goodbye.[/i] "I'll see you then, vod."
-
The last he sees of Cannon is the Mandalorian climbing aboard a combat transport. He pulls on his helmet, merging seamlessly with the faceless mass of warriors around him as it lifts into the air towards the dreadnaught.

[i]Charlie's smile vanishes as Cannon leaves. He pulls out the letter and looks it over.Voices in his head go off.[/i] [b][u]Burn it![/u][/b] [b]No, but we should open it.[/b] [u] No! Cannon entrusted me to get it to Iso. It means a lot to him.[/u] [b]He never said we couldn't take a look.[/b] [u][b]He has stolen Iso from us! We were suppose to marry her! We ARE suppose to marry her! She's our fiance still, yes? We should kill him when he gets back if he's not already dead! Screw the letter! He's our enemy![/b][/u] [u]Stop it! I'll agree to taking a look, but I'm giving it to Iso no matter what.[/u] [b]You're weak![/b] [b][u]You're weak![/u][/b] [i] Charlie slowly opens the letter and reads it.[/i]

Edited by Cannon011: 12/17/2016 11:09:10 PMThe letter is written in clean, printed handwriting, almost like a military report. It reads: [i]Dear Iso If you're reading this, it means I wasn't able to find you before I got shipped out. Sorry. I'm not great with words as you know, let alone writting, but here goes. First off I want to say thank you. You were the first person outside of my clan I ever got close to, and the first that didn't treat me like a simple machine. You gave me a glimpse of what peace is, and thanks to that I have the strength to continue, despite everything that's happened to me. Second, and my brothers would be laughing if they saw this, I just want to say don't worry about me. I've made it this far, and for once I have someone to return for. And finally, I love you. Thanks for everything. I'll see you soon, ner cyare. Cannon.[/i]

[i]Several burn marks form on the letter, but they stop forming when Charlie sighs and puts the letter away. Not soon after he finds Iso. Iso tackles Charlie in a hug when she finds him.[/i] [b]Iso: [/b]"Charlie! Hey, do you know where Cannon is?!" [i]Charlie sighs again as he pushes Iso off and gives her the letter. He walks away as she opens it and reads. Iso hugs it to her chest and starts to cry a little.[/i] "K'oyacyi, ner cyare."
-
[u][i][b]Timeskip, two weeks later. Two days past scheduled return of the Mandalorians.[/b][/i][/u] The massive dreadnaught returns into orbit, it's puter hull marred by varies new burns and scars. It slowly lowers towards the clearing outside the Dojo, varies transports and corvettes landing below it to unload troops.
-
[i]Iso is laying on the field in a sleeping bag. The noises somehow don't wake her.[/i]
-
[spoiler]How is that freaking possible? This is the equivalent of a few hundred fighter jets.[/spoiler] One of the transports nearly lands on her, several Mandos rush over towards her. "Excuse me miss, but you need to move!" Calls one of them.
-
[spoiler]Since when does Iso make sense?[/spoiler] [i]Iso continues to slumber. She talks in her sleep. [/i] "Cannon...ner cyare."
-
One of the troopers roughly shakes her awake. "Oi, aruetii, you need to get oit of the landing zone!"
-
[i]Iso slowly wakes up and looks up at the soldier. Her eyes go wide and she tackles the man. She kisses him on the helmet and hugs him.[/i] "Ner cyare!"
-
[spoiler]despite he looks nothing like Cannon...[/spoiler] "What the-" "She's crazy!" The other Mandos quickly pull her off the man.
-
[spoiler]She just woke up, give her a break.[/spoiler] [i]Iso realizes her mistake and laughs.[/i] "Do you fine men know where I can find my Cannon?"
-
"Your what?" One of them seems to realize what she's talking about. "You mean the commander?"
-
[i]Iso nods excitedly.[/i] "Yes! My Cannon! He's the son of...uhh...Shooms? Shams? Shades?"
-
"Shames. Yeah, he's our officer. He's probably in the med bay still." Replies one of them gesturing up at the dreadnaught, which is now hovering above the field. "Should be coming down soon."
-
[i]Iso's eye twitches.[/i] "M-Med bay?H-He's hurt?"
-
The Mandos look at each other. "Not really..." "Got a face full of anti-riot gass." "He was talking to the wounded, making sure they were cared for." They all say at once, stumbling over each other's words.
-
[i]Iso has a scary, crazy look on her face.[/i] "Wh-What happened?!"
-
They look at each other, all of them looking at one with a large green tassle on his armor. "You were in his raider unit Taslo, what happend?" The man sighs. "We were eating rations on base when it got attacked, the boss ran out to organize the defenses and didn't have time to grab gis helmet. They launched anti-riot tear gas at us and he didn't have any protection. It's not lethal, so he should be fine. I've never seen someone fight while exposed to that much gas."
-
[i]Iso growls.[/i] 'I need to see him right now!"
-
"He should be arriving soon. The med ship is on it's way down."
-
[i]Iso waits impatiently.[/i]
