Hello everyone, Ik I'm late to the party but this is my first contribution to the Summer of Bad Batch stories! Prompt 1 of week one is the title!
She really hadn’t planned to fall asleep, especially since this was her first ever sleepover. But being the daughter of a mayor and a student in middle school did not help with Lyana’s exhaustion while she drifted off to sleep at Omega’s house, after telling Omega that she’ll wait for her while the latter brought them popcorn.
Ships towering the island. Bombs falling. Stormtroopers flooding the very streets.
She was quaking, calling for her father. Why won’t he listen? She thought frantically, panting and running around. She wanted to scream but the smoke clogged her throat. She knew if she made a sound, she’ll be found, but why isn’t anyone coming for her? Where are Omega and her brothers? Why is nobody coming to help?
She wanted to scream, but the babies screamed louder than she could, wailing while their parents were kicked to the ground in search of someone.
Omega.
But a trooper pointed to Lyana while she sprinted across their lines. “There!”
She backed away into an alleyway. Tried to run, flail, but her arms were trapped by troopers far too big, far too many.
Omega called to her from some high ledge.
She couldn’t respond, but thrash around, her mouth gagged while silent tears escaped for her father.
“Lyana. LYANA!”
Bolting upright in sleep, Lyana gasped, her eyes wild while her vision adjusted to the darkness barely broken by a lamplight, and she nearly jumped when a hand landed on her shoulder. She could barely make out the blonde-haired form of her best friend.
“Lyana,” Omega’s voice was vaguely frightening after the dream. “What’s wrong?”
“Where…am I?”
Omega looked around bewildered. “You’re home. You’re in my house, and you fell asleep watching the movie.”
Dropping her head down, Lyana shook the locks out of her face, fingers coming to rub her eyes as she tried to process.
It all felt so real. The fire, the pain, the torture, and seeing her father run for her when she was being dragged around…
“Sorry,” Lyana finally managed, pushing a smile up her face. “Let’s continue the movie, it’s all right. Look, I didn’t play it whe-”
Omega leaned down on one elbow, raising an eyebrow. “I don’t believe you.”
For a few moments, the terror of the nightmare seemed to gnaw down on her, while she kept staring at the ground, until Omega’s voice broke the silence again. “Lyana, it’s all right. Why are you scared? We’re here to protect you.”
“But they couldn’t protect you,” Lyana blurted, only to realize what escaped out of her mouth. To her relief, Omega didn’t get mad, instead peered down into her face. “You saw a nightmare about me?”
“No,” the addressed finally lifted her gaze. “Your situation, but it was me they were looking for.”
Omega’s eyes widened slightly in alarm. “Tell me. all of it.”
And she did.
At the end, when Lyana explained nobody had come for her, she sighed. “I thought of you. Nobody came to save you when you gave yourself up. You’re so brave.”
“So are you, Lyana.”
“I never coul-”
“Yes. You never know until you do.” Omega put a hand on her shoulder, and in that moment, Lyana could definitely see the resemblance between her and Hunter. “You lead your people. That day in the shed, when I went to give myself up, you were the one who kept my brother safe.”
“But I couldn’t save you, and what if…” Lyana’s lip quivered. “What if they come again. For me?”
“They won’t. The last time, we weren’t prepared. This time, we will be, and I will keep you safe. I promise.”
Lyana accepted the hug Omega offered her. “You’re a good friend, Omega.”

Tech had always been good at spotting patterns. Whether that be in art or maths or people. And recently he had begun to notice a pattern emerging in regards to one person in particular.
It all started when he and his brothers were fixing up Cid's bar. Bolo and Ketch had gotten into an argument with another couple which ended up with the two of them getting thrown across the bar into the wall. Cid had brought them in to fix the old wooden panelling.
Whilst they worked, the bar was supposed to be closed. But that didn't stop a woman with dark skin, golden coiled hair and an upturned smile from walking in. Tech was about to inform her that they were currently closed, when Cid brushed him off, saying that the woman was an old friend of hers that had recently moved back into town. Her name was Phee.
Tech hadn't given their first interaction much thought. She had hung around the bar, chatting to his brothers whilst she caught up with Cid but besides calling him Brown Eyes, they didn't talk much.
The bad batch had made a habit of going to Cid's bar for dinner on Thursdays as it was one of its quieter days so Cid gave them a personal discount if they came. Not long after their first meeting, Tech noticed that Phee had also begun to make a habit of appearing on Thursday's, to hang around with Cid and enthral Omega with tales of her exploits as a treasure hunter. At first, Tech assumed that as a close associate of Cid, Phee was also taking advantage of a personal discount.
But then she started making an appearance at their jobs sites as well. Not seemingly on Cid's behalf, just to tell more of her tales whilst they worked. Tech didn't mind her presence as she never distracted him from his work and he had to admit that he did find her stories entertaining if outlandish. At the time his new hypothesis was that she was simply making up for lost time by catching up with Cid after being away for so long.
And then she showed up outside of Omega's school.
Tech was waiting to pick up his little sister when the familiar voice called out across the playground.
"Fancy seeing you here Brown Eyes!"
He turned around and as expected, leaning against the school fence stood Phee.
"Good afternoon. I'm here to pick up Omega. What are you doing here?" He asked, as she made her way over to him.
"Well I'm here for my niece." She replied, "Ain't that a coincidence huh?"
Tech was starting to put the pieces together that their continued meetings were probably more than a coincidence.
But before he could delve deeper into that thought, the school bell rang out across the playground, shortly followed by the hordes of children.
In the past months under their care, Tech had become quite adapt at picking out the blonde head of his younger sister out of a crowd. He soon spotted Omega running across the playground towards him along with a similarly aged girl with familiar coiled hair and dark brown skin who had to be Phee's niece.
The girl leapt into Phee's open arms. Tech was impressed by the treasure hunter's strength. He knew how deceptively heavy growing children could be.
After a spin, Phee settled them back onto the ground.
"Allow me to introduce Lyana!" She said with a dramatic bow. Lyana gave a welcome wave to Tech.
"A please to meet you." Tech said.
Phee, stroked her hand over the Lyana's head. Although her eyes were on Tech, she appeared to be subconsciously detangling some of the girl's curls. Lyana was smiling at her aunts antics like she was the greatest person in the universe.
Until this moment, Tech hadn't fully realised how good Phee was with children. He knew that she was an engaging storyteller with the exploits she would tell Omega about but he hadn't noticed until now all the extra exaggerations and efforts she would put in to make the child laugh. In fact Phee was very good at a lot of things. Tech had seen her off handily complete her brothers' maths without calculator a calculator as she wondered around their building sites. And she was still the only person who gave him a challenge when playing chess at Cid's bar.
And it wasn't until this moment that he found that the rings of gold in her hair, made her eyes shine like amber.
Tech took his glasses off, to ensure that it wasn't just reflections of the glass. But if anything, the lack of glass only made them shine brighter.
He was so distracted by them, that it took him a minute to tell that Phee had continued talking.
"Now we just need to find something to do to until your Daddy is done with his meeting." Phee was saying to Lyana.
"Maybe you could watch a movie?" Omega suggested. "Tech is taking me to the cinema to see the first Pirates of the Caribbean because they're re-releasing it for its tenth anniversary and I've never seen it!"
"Then you are in for a treat!" Phee exclaimed with her usual enthusiasm. "That's my favourite film of all time!"
"Perhaps you would like to join us?"
Tech wasn't aware he had spoken until he found all three sets of eyes turned to him.
Omega was giving him the same look that his brothers often did when they were around Phee that he hadn't quite deciphered the meaning behind yet. So he turned his focus back to Phee who's ever present smile had settled into something softer.
"Oh Brown Eyes, I was starting to think you'd never ask."
