🐺 ~PROJECT SAC-1~ ⚔️

Chapter 17 - As far as first dates go... 😆

A/N: 

We never see how the Bad Batch look when they're younger, but since they haven't been in battle I imagine Wrecker with actual hair when they are cadets and first deployed before his apparent accident XD I've seen some pics where he has light hair like Crosshair and Tech, and others where it's the same as all clones... I leave that to your imagination

The Bad Batch are 17,000 credits richer!

Under the alias 'Hunter Lawquane' their Sergeant cashed in on his reward for turning Osian Cai in to the authorities, much to Agent Talla's shame of her naivety and anxiety over the consequences. Hunter did not appreciate his judgement as their leader put into question, but the hoard of credits was more than enough to smooth over any contradicting feelings. 

And in a shocking twist of events, after two years of their acquaintanceship Skylar Tiima, the twi'lek tattoo and piercings artist at Nik's parlor, has confessed to Wrecker that she wishes pursue a romantic relationship, which he avidly accepts, harboring feelings for ever since he could put a label to what he felt inside for her...

Picture it:

🌫️ Coruscant 🏙️
2️⃣2️⃣ BBY
🔫 Shortly after the outbreak of the Clone Wars

Four young and inexperienced deviant clone commandos fresh off of Kamino, with the physical maturity of twenty years but nowhere near the emotional and mental maturity of that age.

And despite being exceedingly different in appearance then their reg counterparts, one even having silver-toned hair and the other roughly the size of a wookie and even having the strength of one, the squadron still thought themselves looking very plain, very dull, very BLAH...

(NIK'S PARLOR - LATE MORNING - DAY 7 SINCE DEPLOYMENT)

Good thing was, during his cadet years Tech had researched the various ways to enhance one's appearance through the HoloNet, and now the self-proclaimed 'Bad Batch' were in a position to make them look more unique, more dangerous-looking and the cherry on top, more rebellious. 😈

Bad part was, they didn't know you had to pay for these sorts of things too, and had spent almost all the money they didn't have on their very first meal that wasn't gross Cafeteria food, or the tasteless ration bars they'd supplied with. 😕 They had an inkling about having to trade credits for things, but they didn't expect the prices they were hit with when entering the five-star reviewed tattoo parlor this side of 79's.

Hunter was going to be the example of strength and set the foundation for him and his brothers getting over their needle phobia, and all he wanted was a black skull tattoo on the left side of his face, the badass symbol of their badass squadron. The tattoo would be odd pick me up of sorts, after that awful experience at the drinking establishment last night, and all dishwashing they had to do that still didn't pay off their exorbitant tab yet, the bartender said.
