The Ex-Sith and the Clone (Captain Rex x reader)

Betrayer

"I can tell." He responded, earning him a soft shake of my head.

"General." Hearing that shouted across the bridge to get my attention I spun around, boots squeaking on the floor. "Urgent transmission from General Windu."

My brows frowned together in concern as I swiftly nodded my head at the trooper who informed me. Picking up a brisk walk, I made my way down the walkway to the table in the adjoining room. I began to punch in the code on the controls, accepting the call from my former master. The table hummed to life, my Master's glowing blue form appearing to hover over the surface.

"Master, to what do I owe the pleasure?" I greeted him, folding my hand on the edge of the table.

"An informant has asked to see you." His curt response left me frowning.

"Why?" I questioned him. I've spoken to a couple of informants the Republic had out in the field pressing their ears to as many walls as they could, relaying any information they could acquire to us for a price of course. But never has any of them requested me.

"She says she has information regarding the 104th." My Master answered, folding his arms over his chest.

"Okay, but why can't Kenobi do it?" I asked, my brows furrowing deeper knowing he was already on his way here and could pick up any information on the way and then deliver it to me.

"She refused to release it to anyone else but you." That shocked me slightly. Never had an informant asked for me specifically, I doubted most of them knew who I was let alone knew enough to request me. "We need any information we can get, Y/n." My Master reminded me, trying to persuade me to retrieve it. "You need this information, seeing as it pertains to your battalion."

"Right." I sighed, sealing my eyes shut as I softly nodded my head. "I'll depart as soon as Obi-Wan arrives for backup. Where am I going?"

"Her name's Cid. She runs a parlour on Ord Mantell." Master Windu explained. "Tread with caution. Ord Mantel isn't exactly the most civilised place in the galaxy."

"Of course, Master." I sent him a small smile. "When am I not cautious?" I joked, the smile resting on my face growing as my former Master gently shook his head. "I'll report back once I've got the information."

"May the Force be with you." He lowered his head at me.

"And with you, Master." I returned, bowing my head right back at him as the transmission clicked off.

The blue glow faded leaving the room lit by the screens around the edge. We had to leave. Pinching the bridge of my nose I made a mental list of everything I'd need going down to that planet. Credits were a must, a prepared ship, some company.

"Have a cargo ship prepared for departure please." I directed over to the trooper manning the comms system.

"Right away." He responded, nodding curtly in response.

"Can you also get in contact with Sinker and Boost to let them know they've been assigned to the upcoming mission." I added, smiling at him when he nodded his head once more.

Leaving him to it, I made my way back down the walkway to where Wolffe was still standing. I came to stand at his side taking up the vacant space of where I was moments before.
