Tonight I sat on the bunk I share with the now two other members of my group and sobbed. I know I shouldn't have. I know I should be stronger. I was trained for this, but something about today seems worse. I'm lost. Lost in a sea of me.

Very powerful writing! applause


Thank you!

I removed his helmet to get a good look at him after he had gone. It was like staring into a mirror which wouldn't stare back.


*sigh* Very poignant.

Somehow, these entries keep getting more and more profound...

I could have pushed him aside, stepped in front. I could've done something. I just stood there and watched him be killed.

Perhaps the most dangerous action is inaction.
(Though in this case it just sounds like guilt over something out of his control.)


I think I forgot to mention this before - if you have a PM list, please add me to it.

Entry 10

I've been referred to the medical ward due to my emotional state since E'Chin's death. My mind is failing and I can't stop it. Today they are running a few tests to see what could be wrong. So far, there has been no sign from the medical droids that there is anything wrong with me physically.

I could tell them what is wrong with me. I'm sick. I'm tired of fighting. I don't even know what I'm really fighting for. Is the Republic any better than the Seps? I mean will I have rights and privileges under Republic rule that I won't have under the Seps? I don't think I'll ever get rights. In fact, I'm sure of it.

My head hurts from all the thinking. Maybe the rapid aging process has made my brain about to explode. I just don't know anymore. Hopefully these tests will be over soon and I can go back to doing what I do best even though it is what makes me feel this sick, being a merciless face in the crowd.

This up-date proves that also the ´perfect clones´ of Jango Fett can be as traumatized as any normal human being. They suffer from their experiences of this dreadful war like anybody else: loss of family members and friends, tough combat situations and so much destruction...

War is hell and the clones are not immune just because Jango was a Mandalorian. Thanks for reading!

Thank you! I'm finally hitting my stride with this clone.

Uh-oh, starting to think is not something a clone is supposed to do. It can only lead to sorrow... sad

Seppies might be the better choise, after all, they use droids to fight and he could get a neat offcie job. wink

Entry 11

Back in action. It feels so good to be out of the awful medical ward. I was tired of being confined to the ship too. Luckily, I got to ride one of the small shuttles to the planet today and join in the fight. I was accompanied by an very odd little jedi padawan on my way. She says she is Ashoka Tano and is padawan to General Skywalker.

Skywalker is General Kenobi's former student and the two assault groups have been working in tandem to get things done quickly.

Christophsis has been a hard planet, or so I guessed from all the wounded. When I was in the medical ward, there were so many injured who had been ferried from the ground to the main ship to be treated. Sadly so many were calling out in pain. It was like hearing your own voice over and over. It was haunting.

When the lights were out, the night crept in and the moaning and crying was worse. The clone in the cot next to me, well he didn't make it and called out for his buddies serveral times in the dark. His buddies came early in the morning and stood over the cot sobbing. I'm glad I'm not the only one who cries. Such a strange sight to see. All those men who looked like me, crying about their lost brother. A brother, I would never know, but still knew so well.

Ashoka Tano, General Skywalker and General Kenobi... great names, but the war is actually mostly fought by countless clones.

*things about a famous Dutch song, whose title can be translated with "With blood, sweat and tears"!*

Haunting up-date!
