Cherreads

Chapter 9 - Ah Shit

Three months had passed since my lab was built and I had produced a few things while introducing the Pokemon caregiver armor. Pretty much everyone who took care of Pokemon was praising it and the rangers had even requested a design for themselves. I'd given them a version much like caregiver armor just with built in weapons and a camo coat.

I had slowly added more tech to my lab and had gotten Oak to help me study the changes in my genetics. He mapped out all the changes he could find and gave me the results of his studies. I would be considered super human in my previous life and even here I was just a bit better than most genetically.

I had begun preparing for my next world in many ways. I'd figured out the space expansion technology and had applied it to my suit with multiple small pockets that held lots of space including one that had two months of compressed oxygen. I had even made the armor space worthy with specific boosters and a simple ai to help control everything.

I had expanded the battery pack into a massive amount of batteries all charged by multiple thunder stone enhanced by electric gems. The last edition to my armor was massive amounts of supplies and multiple hidden weapons. I had three bolt action rifles, four double barrel shotguns, two revolvers, two 1911s, a BAR, and a Thompson smg I had found online. I'd even gotten some cartoon like bombs and put them with the guns. This world didn't have modern guns, most being around WW2 era but bolt action, breach loading, and revolving were simple enough to make with what I had. The BAR however was completely hand made as I didn't what to make something strictly to make the gun. It was what I was most familiar with as I used a modern version in my previous life. The ammunition was also pretty easy as I simply had to order the material and form the ammunition with some automated machines I had made.

Along with the guns I made some cold steel. Some spears, sword types, warhammers, shield types, heavy compound bows, and a large crossbow. With the weapons I packed every tool I could think of and more.

With my armor and supplies ready I was simply waiting for my world transfer. I and Oak had integrated my Pokemon into his ranch but little Vulpix simply wouldn't leave. I didn't want to abandon them here but I wasn't sure if living things could come with me and even if I did people would see unique and powerful creatures and continuously try to take them. Leaving them with Oak would practically guarantee their safety.

Three days had passed since I prepared my armor and I could feel it, whatever my evolution had done had given me the ability to feel when it would happen. I didn't have long till I fell into another world so I began me last preparations. I put on my armor, grabbed an item, put Vulpix on my shoulder and went to Professor Oaks lab. When I got there I found the two people I had been looking for, Professor Oak and his granddaughter Daisy.

As soon as I stepped through the door I could feel it coming, I ran to Oak and Daisy, and without explanation gave Oak the flash drive of all my knowledge to Oak and handed Vulpix to Daisy after wrapping her in a fireproof blanket. With a single nod to Oak I ran back out the door listening to Vulpixs heart aching cries and fell into another world.

This world was different from what I had expected. I found myself not falling but flying towards a Providence class ship of the CIS navy from Star Wars. My sensors indicated I was flying at the ship at terminal velocity so I spun myself and slowed my landing before looking around. I found I was in the middle of a massive battle above a planet I easily recognized, Coruscant.

In between the battleships fighting I could make out hundreds of smaller dogfights with one dogfight quickly approaching the ship I was standing on. I zoomed in and found the lead ships of the republic to be a yellow and grey ship with a red and white ship beside it. I know knew the exact battle I was in as Anakin and Obi-wan flew to the ship I was on and shot the shield generator, infiltrating the ship.

From what I could remember the Battle of Coruscant was a large and bloody one and was near the end of the clone wars as it was the start of revenge of the sith.

With my jets I quickly made my way into the ship and quickly caught up to Anakin and Obi-wan. As I caught up they both turned and prepared for battle. I raised my hands and spoke "Chill out, I'm a republic merc, I saw y'all get in here so I followed. I've got power armor and heavy weapons so I can back up you jedi. If I survive this I'm guaranteed the merc payout check." I'd made up most of it but parts of it were slightly true. I would fight for the republic and I'd probably become a mercenary if I didn't get to speak with Yoda.

They both glanced at each other subtly communicating about what I'd said. They probably sensed I was mixed truth with lies but understood that it would be nice to have someone with heavy weapons and armor backing them up. "Alright you'll back us up, follow our orders and target anything with shields or heavy weapons or armor." Anakin said.

We quickly cut through some B1s and got to an elevator where I stuffed myself in the back as Obi-Wan joined me and Anakin began analyzing my armor. I simply pulled out my universal connector and asked for a data pad. Anakin pulled one from somewhere and took the connector and plugged it into a port I couldn't see. I uploaded my armors specs and he immediately began asking questions about different parts. I answered everything I could but we were cut short when the elevator got to the floor we wanted. I stepped past the two Jedi and subtly pulled out a thick tower shield.

As the door opened I dashed out with the Jedi following behind me. I slammed into multiple B1 droids and stopped at two heavy super battle droids. Multiple large bolts crumpled my shield but it was to late as I leaped on one slamming my plasma blade into its red sensor. I dropped my destroyed shield and dragged the SBD in front of my as a shield against the other while activating my plasma cannon.

I launched a single bolt that split the droid in half and fried its internals. Anakin and Obi-wan had already put down the rest of the droids so we continued on till we found the door to the bridge. Before we could begin cutting into the bridge the elevator opened and crapped out two heavy SBDs and some B1s. I activated my plasma shield hoping to block some of the blasts but the bridge door opened and out came more droids. We were surrounded so we all deactivated our weapons and were cuffed. We all could have easily broken free but it wouldn't help right now.

We were escorted to the bridge and met Grievous. Chancellor Palpatine was in the bridge locked up on a chair unlike what had happened in the movie. Grievous and Anakin insulted each other and the door opened behind us as R2-D2 was carried in by a SBD. Grievous took Anakin and Obi-Wans light sabers and turned away. R2 then began freaking out zapping droids and flew into one of those alien dudes. Anakin and Obi-Wan pulled their lightsabers to them and sliced their cuffed then cut done multiple droids.

I snapped my cuffs and activated my plasma cannon firing it into a magna guard. The droid lost a large part of its chest along with an arm and its legs. I spent my remaining shots destroying the three SBDs in the room. I pulled a revolver and shattered the heads of the two B1s trying to take Palpatine from the room then shot the remaining magna guard after Obi-Wan beheaded it.

The only threat in the room after that was Grievous who was engaged with Anakin. O I-wan dashed in and they quickly took an arm from the cyborg. He attempted to flee but I pulled my Thompson and shot at him every time he tried to. He got between the two Jedi then suddenly lunged at me. I brought up my shield but I didn't trust it to block the sabers like another saber would. I almost got the Skywalker treatment as the blades came down towards my arm but I was saved by Obi-wan dashing over and catching them.

I immediately changed my shield into a blade and stabbed at him but he twisted while kicking Anakin away. I unloaded my Thompson and plasma cannon at him but he only got hit with a few bullets which did practically nothing and only lost a few fingers to my plasma. He disengaged Obi-wan and slashed at Anakin then ran to the side likely to get to Palpatine. I tossed a few bombs infront of him and the successfully blocked him as he was thrown past Anakin into the glass.

He cracked the glass and the shutters slammed down taking the rest of the arm I had hit with my plasma blast. I dropped my Thompson and pulled out my BAR firing at him. He let out a hacking cough and leaped over the to Jedi that were moving towards him. The tough bastard lunged at me again but I was ready I dropped on my back and brought my plasma blade up to meet him as he sailed over.

He sliced my arm open and took a big chunk of my helmet but I took his remaining arms and a leg. My thumb, pointer, and middle finger were still attached to my horribly burned arm which had also lost half its mass. My armor had lost the plasma cannon and emitters but I still had my face intact despite the damage to my helmet. Pain flooded my senses as still hot metal contacted my cut arm and now burned face. I stood up and quickly removed my helmet and entire right arm armor. I pulled a 1911 out and unloaded it into Grievous's struggling form despite the Jedi telling me not to. I dropped the gun and dropped into a chair that bent and nearly broke under my weight as I pulled out a med kit that Obi-wan took and started bandaging me.
