[???? ???] It's been about a year since the destruction of Tipoca City and a lot has change with Mari Andino and the rest of Clone Force 99.
As the squad continues to adapt and navigate throughout the galaxy, what fate of the remaining clones...

It was already dark by the time Hunter, Wrecker, and I, found ourselves scouring within the city.
From the situation we are in, Hunter decided to inform the others when the sunset had set, about Plan Double Zero. Finding myself kneeling within the wreckage of the city just a few yards away where Hunter and Wrecker were.
My eyes stared at the troopers slowly approaching our position with their blasters raised as I sense Hunter calling out to me with his thoughts flowing through.
>>"Are you sure about this, Mari?"
My eyes narrowed at the troopers below as my hand slowly reach for my lightsaber.
>>"I'm sure, Hunter." I confirmed.
As we briefly discussed it earlier, the plan was to ambush the troopers approaching our position. Providing Hunter and Wrecker the opportunity to slip away while I handle the regs.
With the clones getting even closer, I stood on the metal ledge I was on, until I heard Hunter speaking to me via his thoughts projecting through.
>>"Mari, wait! 12 o'clock." Hunter spoke, making me raised my head a bit and look across the rubble to see two Separatist tanks sitting a few feet away.
>>"I don't know if those tanks will work, Hunter. They're pretty much worn out."
>>"Just give us time to check on the tanks. If all else fails, make your move, Mari." Hunter said, noticing in the distance to see him and Wrecker beginning to make their way over to it.
>>"Copy that."
Waiting on the ledge, I suddenly felt Tech trying to reach out to me through the Force as I honed in on his thoughts.
With eyes closing and taking a deep breath, I concentrated through the Force bond we established to feel Tech's voice speaking inside my head.
>>"What is it, Tech? Is everything all right?" I answered, sensing the hesitance I felt from him before a response came through.
>>"Well, no. For one, I broke my left femur." He said nonchalantly.
This made me shoot my eyes wide open as I held a disbelief look on my face. >>"What?! How? Are you okay?" I spoke quickly, my eyes in front of me looking across the wreckage once more to see Hunter and Wrecker were inspecting the tanks.
>>"I am...managing. However, you will need to aid me in my recovery once we get back to Marauder. So far the three of us managed to find shelter by a kind samaritan named Romar."
>>"Romar? Is he Imperial?" I asked.
>>"No. He's a civilian. He's one of the few survivors who managed to flee before the Empire ordered the destruction of the city."
