Not a Hero
If a man says he is not afraid of dying; that man is either lying, or a Republic Commando.
Sergeant Valkren Calderon, a member of the temporary Commando team of Saber squad, sat aboard the Champion-class Star Destroyer, the Obi-wan Kenobi. The man seemed to be getting the strangest of looks while aboard the ship, being clad in full Heavy Assault armor and just sitting on one of the benches among the corridors of the Ship. He hadn't noticed any of them, because he was so entranced in the datapad he had in his gloved hand. With his helmet in the seat beside him, he was frantically going over loads of data that he had compiled together for a presentation to the Supreme Commander of the Republic, [member="Gir Quee"].
That's why the Sergeant as aboard the god-forsaken ship and not on the ground, where he should be. He needed help, and he needed it bad. After his last mission on Nar Shadaa he had come upon some unsettling information involving the location of his target, Doctor Ar'man Shaw. He had gone to his superiors for resource requests before, but never this high up..This was a new one, and it felt like he was walking into a firing line.
"Here goes nothing.." Valkren said as he stood up, taking a few steps to round one of the ships corridors, and tapping a command on the console next to the door of Gir Quee's office, requesting entry. He held the datapad in his right hand, with his helmet tucked underneath his left arm as he waited for the door to open.
That was another thing, usually he had called ahead to ask for resources, this time..He didn't.
