The Beginning of Marl
A-132, Ct-4938, Marl as my brothers call him. My main purpose was to make sure the troopers were calm on the battlefield. Clown Batch, a one-purpose batch; some humor relief on the battlefront. Though I don’t act smart I am actually a tactical genius (Hello? I play Risk the board game made for tactics). Sadly I was the only out of three men to come out of clown batch becaus... well... humor doesn’t go well with fighting. They also had to delete some data to fit in the humor info (jokes, a way to be funny even in the most serious moments, etc.) the only thing that fit the need enough was to keep out the action and reaction to the words “Execute Order 66”, but since the Cloners and I thought that would never happen they thought it wasn’t important. So here I am thinking of my probably short life on Geonosis.

Geonosis Part One; The Baptism of MARL
In the gunship ‘bout to land on Geonosis any second now just to get shot or worse- at least I’ll be a sergeant of an elite commando squad when I die, Boo Yah. “Landing in three minutes, sir.” The pilot announced. Oh man, here it comes, couldn’t they plant courage in me… “Landing in two minutes sir,” I look at a hologram of the map. There we are… holy cow and… and I gulp in some air surprised… there they are and by ‘they’ I mean a huge ever growing droid army. Can’t let the guys see me like this they’ll never get over it. “Landing in one minute sir,” I take off my helmet and get a bit too eat out of my commando pack. I eat it down and 5 seconds later I throw it up. “Landing in 30 seconds sir,” the pilot announced courageously. For a brother, I wish I could kill him. what does he think this is? New Year's Eve? I'm so cool and professional because i can count down and I'm a pilot! "Landing in 10 seconds sir" i look out a small crack. Hey, there’s another gunship next.... never mind it just blew up. Thanks for the courage guys, that's the last thing i want to see... a mirror image of what could happen to me. there was a big bump. "Wake up sir, time to get out." he snickered, the pilots they make these days. thanks for nothing. three men wait for me outside. Ahh... finally some guys i can relate to... the one... the only... Yankee Squad, the guys who do the dirty work... as in we have to take out whatever Delta Squad missed. for example the Geonosian that was squirming on the floor, spaz. I shoot him and hear his disgusting death cry. the pilot takes off and about five seconds later he gets shot down. Serves that jerk right. Another five seconds later debris comes at us. "AHHHH" screamed our tech man called Tinker, I smirked a little after remembering I called him "Tinkle". I then realized he could be dead, and I realized he was. He got hit by the mainframe of the gunship. "Bloody Mary, Tinker got hit by debris!" said our medic Doc who goes by him and looks at him. "No pulse sir." I didn't know what to do. I think i went mad. i mean like crazy mad, like lunatic level, but i didn't realize it. Hey I will keep being funny

Geonosis Part Two; Marl on the Lam
What I realized that next moment was that we were in a valley. flaming debris and now to sweep the base minus one man i hope we didn't make too much noise. Me Doc, and Boomer our heavy weapons specialist enter the droid base. Pew, there goes one Geonosian, pew, two, pew, nothing? Oh no.... "IT'S A TRAP! IT'S A TRAP!" I screamed, there was nothing but a half-mile hallway filled with nothing no way to escape well because the blast doors closed. It was Me Doc and Boomer vs. 20 super battle droids.I shoot one and it does nothing, Then Doc gets hit in the head so that was an automatic kill. so it was me and Boomer, Boomer took a grenade and blew a hole in the blast door; weak door i could've done that! Boomer then said "Sir It's either you or me and it's not going to be me." he shows me his wound on his leg. "I think they'll need you more than me, plus I got a rotary gun I'll take most of 'em out sir." I say seriously (I mean serious as I get) "It was an honor working with you solider." I run out only to hear his scream only to be etched in my head and to haunt my dreams. It looks like I’m stuck on this Rock i think as I watch the republic fleet hyper jump away.

Marl Hits Big Time
It's been... I don’t know how long, when I see a republic fleet... A true Christmas miracle... I think. I use a flare gun to warn the fleet and hopefully not the Geonosians. Then about 2 hours later a gunship comes down. I hope it doesn't have such an annoying pilot as my last one. Two of my brothers leave the gunship. I act cautiously and lower my weapon even though it had no ammo. The first clone trooper, obviously a squad leader, asked "Clone or droid" i take off my helmet "Clone sirs, CT-4938 or My Alpha name 1-32. Or please just Marl." the Squad Leader said "Ok Marl, I'm SquadLeader Racer and this here is Cold he is also an Alpha" The second man, EliteMarine Coldline says "I am A-130, heh, close to your alpha name," we enter the gunship where I go to Admiral Ghost's Cruiser. I then meet with the Jedi and they decide that my survival skills are so good i have two choices: A. i could join with three other commandos to make omega squad or B. I Could join Squad Leader Racer's squad, an elite squadron called the Republic Marine Havoc Squad of the 501st. I chose B. they did save me after all. Looks like I hit big time. (Although by chosing B I do leave an opening for Darman and the Omega Squad become quite successful)

My Life as a Comedic Clone Trooper
And no, I'm not an average trooper, I'm part of the 501st, the most elite troops out there! So don't think it's a demotion.

Get Your Marl On
My First Mission with The Havoc Squad was on Umbarra of course I'm not mentioned yet (well in Luke Docker's epic story yet) or mentioned as a team mate, i'm the newbie. the first part of my mission was to use my hoverboard and scout the area and then to create the best diversion. I got an idea it was risky, but I thought I could do it. I put my secret weapon in my bag. So the team Me, Luke, Vas, Cold, Spike, Key, and Racer and an anonymous girl go to a briefing. I say in my most romantic voice possible to the anonymous girl "Hey there," and she slaps me. I do little twirl and fall. she says "It's Kala Racer to you.". Racer helps me up. I was about to say thanks when he punches me and I fall down... again. "Try Talking to my wife like that again, Marl." "Yes sir, I mean I won't sir" I said still dizzy. Strike one. I got up and we briefed the mission and there i went to the big bad separtist outpost. There's the entrance. i went right in front of the security camera and waved. A bunch of security droids come out. the commander said "Fir-" "WAIT!!!" I yelled. He said "Wha-?". I said "Get your Marl on.". "What's a Marl?" the battle droid commander asked. I take out a radio out of my bag, the radio plays and i start to dance. i signal Racer to move in because the camera and droids were watching me in suprise, disgust and a "What the heck is he doing" look. But what they didn't know while i was distracting the Battle droids the Marine Havoc Squad Was going in to destroy the power core and blow the base up. I see Cold Give me the other signal which means "Start Shoting the heck out of them". But i wanted to get a good first impression. I decide i would kill them..... with the power of dance. the next song came on. The cantina band i grab my double pistols and start shooting. It took me five shots to kill a droid. (My first kill! well because the Genosians I killed were already injured so it was kind of unfair). Next time I call the rottary cannon. While the rest of the guys looked epic jumping off the roof and picking them off... I did it using the.... power of dance. We leave just in time to watch the fire works, and by that i mean bombs, blow up. Home run. Everyone gives me pats on the backs and high fives. even Mrs. Racer gave me a high five. I think "Thanks Boomer, you gave me a family."

Coruscant Part 1; Marl Goes to the Big Apple AKA Coruscant.
"Marl and the rest of the Marine Havoc Squad travel to Coruscant to help stop the invading forces. Only to find out that the invading forces are no other than the cruel General Grievous. Soon our heroes enter the Corascant system only to find out it's a full-mass attack..."

"Woah..." I say in disbelief as i see cruisers shoot powerful lasers at each other. All the other guys were suprised too. Man, I thought Geonosis was bad. Hey look there's a cruiser next... never mind. Thanks for the courage guys. That's the last thing I want to see. a miror image of what could happen to me. Wow, i thought, Talking about Deja Vu.

I ran up to Luke "Our Gunship is ready!" I alerted Luke. Ugh now time to say something cool. "I got my rottary cannon for blasting those clankers for daring to attack Coruscant!" then Spike said, "Yeah Marl. They will be sorry". We took off. Hey look there's another gunship... never mind it blew up. Deja Vu... again. "This is going to be a rough flight." i said. Then... dang it! we lost contact with Key, Cold, and Lily! Man...

Our gunship landed in the hot zone and we started firing away. Oh My Gosh... Is that Aayla Secura and... Commander Bly!?!? When this is done i want their autograph, the guys back home would never believe me. I get shot in the shoulder from behind "Flipping Rancors!!!" i yell. I suck it in and tell Luke, Aayla and Bly "Another blasted battalion coming up from behind us." Me and Bly go near a crashed Bomber while Luke ad Aayla go near a building. BOOOM! A bomb hit the buildin and it started to collapse. Me and Bly look at each other like in a "Uh oh" way. "Luke! The building!" I yelled. "General!" Bly yelled. luckily Luke and Aayla move right before the building crashed.

Coruscant; Frontlines
We were completely out numbered. Me, Bly, Vasco and Spike were out numbered. I kept them back with my rottary cannon, I could kiss it, but I won't because it's cold out and it'll stick to my lips. Then the gunship came to picked us up, i saw the commander droid and shot him first though... let's see how good they are without a commander i thought. and we went on the gunship with... oh my gosh... Commander Cody! for a nobody, I sure am a somebody. while in the gunship we were, with Commander Cody, talking with Sergeant GreenWizard. the message was fizzy but he told us that he, Shaak Ti, and three other jedi and two clones were with them guarding the chancellor. Then those blasted droids jammed us. I hate the Chancellor and I also hate the clones that scream "For the Chancellor!" and all the guys who do that get shot anyway. To try and kill the chancellor I say the smartest thing i've ever said.
