654 Words3 Pages

TX421 was a retired Clone trooper, who fought in the Clone Wars, before the execution of the Order 66 and the decline of The Republic. Soon after The Republic’s fall, he made a vow to never join the Galactic Empire. Years later, he changed his name to Pierce and became a merchant in the desert planet of Tatooine. Han Solo was persuading Pierce to join the Rebellion. During their secret reunion, Han told Pierce that he needed to infiltrate the Empire as a Rebellion spy. However, Pierce told him that he’d never join the Empire because of his vow. After many days of consideration, Pierce told Han that he’ll become a trooper only if he can execute the attack they were planning on their encounter. Solo replied: “Fine, but you’re on your own in …show more content…

His functions were to escort resources convoys to the base and patrol for intruders. During a routine patrol, he and his partner Borhan heard on the radio that their superiors were requesting for Pierce. Borhan told him that he could patrol on his own for this time. Pierce then rushed with his speeder bike, heading for the base. After his arrival, the superior officer asked him: “What’s this?”, pointing at the notification device Pierce had for any rebel movements and actions on the galaxy. “Are you communicating with the rebels? ”, he asked again.

I’ll go right away.” After he arrived he gave the intel to Solo and left to the base just in case any other scout was there waiting for instructions. A couple of minutes later, Pierce noticed the blaster attached to his speeder was missing, but he didn’t mind, because he had his gun. When Pierce reached the base, he heard a familiar voice saying: “Pierce, you traitor.” He realized it was Borhan. Then, he heard the voice screaming: “I know you are a rebel spy, I know that you’ve been selling intel to the rebels. What I don’t understand is why, because I contacted some of my friends in Tatooine and they said that they’ve never met your family. Strange, don't you think? Also, I was the one who took the blaster off your speeder. Now I’m going to kill you with it.” Pierce then heard a gunshot coming from nowhere and thought that he could make a run for the base door. He tried and ran as fast as he could, but then he just heard a louder gunshot and everything went
