Veni, Vidi, Vici
‘I am Sergeant Tiberius Alenko and you maggots, I mine!
‘Who the hell is this guy?’
‘He isn’t some washed up old guy like the other instructors, and what’s with the leg splint?’
‘I don’t know but did you see him taking the lead, the guy has a leg on splint and he knocked out those push ups without even a bead of sweat’
‘I heard some stuff about him, one of the tech guys told me about him, he was....
Born on the jewel of the Republic Coruscant Tiberius or Ti to his friends couldn’t off been born to a more working class parents. His Father a Dock worker whilst his Mother a waitress in a nearby Cafe were incredibly proud of their child, Ti did everything to a wonderfully average level. At School he got average grades, but in more practical elements to schooling he excelled winning sprint races and games whenever he took part, his Parents were so proud and were grooming their child for long Career in the docking and logistics of Coruscant’s Docks.
‘So....What the hell is the guy doing here?’
‘Yeah, this makes no sense, if he grew up on Coruscant and wasn’t dirt poor or dirty rich why would you join up?’
‘Have I finished my story? No, this is what the tech guy told me and this is the order he told me so shut up! He didn’t stay on Coruscant for long, apparently when he was about 14, 15 his parents...’
However, many things changed as his Father was offered a new job, the Republic was expanding its influence in the Galaxy in the face of its Successful conflict with the Alsakan’s whilst trying to stall the expanding Hutt Empire. To expand they needed to colonise Planets, to colonise Planets you needed Docks and workers to work the.
So the Alenko family set off for the Mid Rim, to some backwater Planet where Ti’s father would earn 10 years worth of wages in a Year’s work, and if they had got to the Planet then Ti life may have been very different.
The Hutt’s to combat the conventional combat the Republic used against them regularly used Irregular methods against the Republic to sow terror against its people and sadly Ti Father was on the receiving end of these terror attacks.
Hutt Mercenaries stormed there ship in a hail of speed and death killing the Security guards before they even had a chance to radio in. The Mercenaries walked through the ship, leering at the women whilst they rounded up the men, the men were placed in the centre of the ship and executed without a pause.
15 men including Ti father extinguished in nothing more than a message to the Republic, and in the grand scheme of things it barely made the news.
‘Damn, that is pretty rough, no wonder the guy is such a hard ass’
‘Yeah, can see why he decided to join up now, you would want to get back at the Hutt’s’
‘Yeah, but I hear he is a Commando’
‘No way is he a Commando, I mean he looks like one but there almost like Spooks, you can’t see the face if there ever caught on the holonet and they get up to crazy shit’
‘Well, how do you think he got the leg splint’
Tiberius spent the next few years of his life with a burning determination to join the Republic Military, after the ship limped back home to Coruscant his Mother descended into severe depression and remains that way until this very day. He visits his Mother every time he has shore leave from the Republic and whilst her condition has improved over the years, she is not the same women she was. Ti eventually joined the Army on his 18th birthday, after being shipped off to Basic and completing it with good Academic skills and excellent fighting skills he joined one of the new Infantry units the Republic was mobilizing.
‘So how can you be sure he is a Commando?’
‘You have seen how crazy the guy is? A broken leg and chin ups, push ups without even breaking sweat, no normal grunt is like that’
‘Well he could just be really fit!’
‘There is fit, then there is special forces fit’[/I]
After several years in the 18th Coruscant infantry battalion his superb leadership and fighting prowess had caught the eye of perspective recruiters, at the age of 28 he joined the Commandos. After a very high risk mission that resulted in a Broken leg, Ti has been ordered to training units until he is ready.
And may the Republic’s enemies take a pause, the NCO’s win the wars and Tiberius will win the fight.
