With the Clone Wars coming to and end the Empire choosing to phase out the majority
of Jango Fett Clones as part of Operation War Mantle, it was a very rare sight to see
Clone Troopers around the galaxy, and especially after the battle of Endor, where Captain Rex
served.
There was however one clone that survived far longer than Rex, and sadly went on to
become the last ever clone trooper, after being frozen for 50 years.
So, lets break down how Kix became the Last Clone Trooper in the Galaxy.
So before we dive deep into it, remember to subscribe to the channel to be notified as
soon as I release more awesome Star Wars lore content.
A Very short while after the Battle of Anaxes, where Kix fought alongside his brothers in
the Bad Batch, the Clone Medic began to get very suspicious about the true nature of Jedi
Master Tiplar’s killing, at the hands of Tup while fighting at Ringo Vinda.
After holding this suspicion in his mind for days, brewing deep inside of him, Kix began
to conduct an investigation into the incident and eventually discover that his Brother fives
may have known the truth behind the killing.
Taking the investigation further, Kix was able to uncover the full truth behind the
inhibitor chips, and discovered that they were implanted into the heads of every single
Clone of the Republic, with the primary goal of eliminating the Jedi with Order 66, but
also to maintain full obedience to the empire.
Unfortunately for Kix, his investigation into the inhibitor chips didn’t go unnoticed
for long, with Count Dooku very quickly hearing word of Kix’s search for the truth.
After finding out that Kix’s knowledge of Palpatine’s plan was far greater than they
ever expected a Clone to discover, Dooku immediately ordered his separatist droids to kidnap him
as soon as possible, to prevent him from going to the Jedi with this information.
After his capture, The separatists employed extreme torture tactics during their interrogation,
and tried to figure out whether or not he had spread his discovered about the inhibitor
chip to anyone else inside of the Republic’s military.
Kix however, maintained his strong resolve, and refused to hand over any information to
his interrogaters, even while enduring horrific torture.
Because the droid interrogators failed to get any useful information out of the Clone
Medic, they knew that they needed to transport Kix directly to Coount Dooku himself on his
homeworld of Serreno, for an even more intense interrogation, this time with the help of
the force.
Following this, Kix was then placed aboard a separatist cruiser called the Obrextra III,
where he was frozen and placed into a deep slumber in a cryo-stasis pod, freezing him
alive until his eventual arrival on Serenno.
Only moments after this, the ship took off from it’s port and entered space with the
droids on board being given only two orders.
Return Kix to Count Dooku on Serreno, and Do not let Kix fall into republic hands, and
… Tragically, only a short while after, the Obrexta three was ambushed by Republic
forces, not knowing that one of their own men was on board.
Because the ship had just exited the atmosphere of the planet below, it’s shields were down,
leaving it in a terribly vulnerable state, and allowing the Republic navy to almost completely
obliterate the cruiser.
With the loss of its primary engine, and fires raging across the deck of the ship, one very
brave and defiant B-1 battle droid named B-1CC14 made the shocking decision to disobey his
direct orders from count Dooku, and send the ship into hyperspace in a completely random
direction, without doing any calculations at all, and with complete disregard for the
state of the ship.
B1-CC14 chose to do this because he believed the Order to protect Kix outweighed the Order
to bring to Count Dooku, and therefore disobeyed the first directive.
After a very long trip through hyperspace, the cruiser burst out near the desert planet
of Ponemah Terminal, where it made a brutal crash landing on the sandy surface.
The ship and all of the separatist droids on board lost power, and would remain lifeless
for many, many years.
On top of this, Clone Trooper kix was also stuck, still frozen in a deep slumber within
his stasis chamber, with absolutely no knowledge of what had just taken place.
Without even knowing it, this brave B-1 battle droid had just saved the life of Kix, and
just set him on the path to becoming the Last Clone Trooper of the Galaxy.
Although Count Dooku was never able to capture and interrogate Kix, his freezing aboard the
Obrextra 3 for all of these years meant that the Jedi ultimately never discovered Order
66 until it was far too late, and were not able to prevent it, apart from a few lucky
survivors… and even those survivors were very quickly hunted down by Darth Vader and
his inquisitors.
Following this, exactly 50 years after the Clone Wars had come to an end, a Delphidian
pirate named Sidon Ithano, or the Crimson Corsair, and his crew were having a good time,
drinking in a cantina on the same planet where Kix was frozen alive, Ponemah terminal.
While on the planet, the band of pirates soon managed to detect and decode a residual emergency
signal coming from the downed ship, and were absolutely astounded to find out that the
signal dated all the way back to the Clone Wars.
They quickly learned that as the ship was crashing down onto the surface, B1-CC14 sent
out a desperate, last ditch distress signal, before the jump to hyperspace.
The pirates then traced the signal all the way out to the wreckage of the crashed cruiser,
where they were forced to battle off hordes of other pirates and mercenaries, who had
also discovered the crash and wanted to make some profit.
Once the Crimson Corsair and his crew arrived at the wreckage, they were shocked to discover
that there was no treasure at all, but instead a cryo stasis pod, buried deep beneath the
wreckage.
After a long pause for consideration, The corsair and his crew decided to awaken the
being inside of the cryo stasis pod, and immediately after, Kix emerged from the ice after 50 long
years of being frozen…
That’s a pretty crazy journey for Kix, making it all the way through the war, to 50 whole
years after it ended.
After Kix awoke from his long stasis, he was immediately sent into a deep shock, and began
rambling in nonsensical words, urgently attempting to inform the pirates about what had happened.
Once he was able to speak properly again, he frantically told the pirated that he had
learned a shocking truth about every single Clone Trooper in the Grand Army of the Republic.
He told them that he was kidnapped after Count Dooku discovered that he knew of Order 66,
and that he posed a major threat to the plan.
Kix of course, unfortunately had no idea just how long he had really been frozen in the
wreckage of the ship, leading him to painfully call out for his General, Anakin Skywalker
so that he could warn him about order 66.
Unkbenknownst him, Anakin Skywalker was long dead and even more tragically, he participated
in Order 66 and the slaughter of the Jedi temple with his Clone Troopers.
While Kix was explaining the situation to the stunned pirates, B1-CC14, the battle droid
who saved Kix’s live and send the ship into hyperspace, awoke from his lower power mode
and triggered another emergency protocol on the ship, which awoke all of the other droids
on board.
As a result of this, the ship began to crumble under the stress of it’s age, and rapid
movement, forcing the pirated to grab hold of Kix and escape through the wreckage, out
onto the sandy surface.
With Kix over his shoulder, The crimson corsair rushed to the escape pods of the ship, hoping
to blast away from the wreckage before it exploded or collapsed, but unfortunately there
simply wasn’t enough room for every pirate.
This led to the Crimson Corsair performing a truly brave act, shoving his men and Kix
into the pod, while he himself stood proud under the collapsing ship, ready to face his
destiny.
Over 3 weeks had passed since the incident, and the pirate crew remained stationed close
to the wreckage of the crashed ship, hoping dearly that their captain would return.
Kix was sent into an even deeper shot because of the incident, and learning about everything
that had happened throughout the galaxy during his time frozen, almost sending him mad.
After being told that Order 66 did infact take place, he became deeply angry with himself,
upset that he was unable to prevent the destruction of the Jedi Order.
While reminiscing on the past, the crew are then shocked and excited to see their red
caped captain emerge from the wreck, only moments before they were about to give up
hope and abandon the desert world.
After escaping, the Crimson Corsair then offers Kix a position in his pirate gang, and with
nowhere else to go, Kix gladly accepts the offer, having no other purpose now that the
Clone Wars have long passed.
After joining the Crimson Corsair’s crew, Kix stopped shaving his head, growing out
his thick black hair and a long beard.
At some point down the line, Kix and the Corsair, alongside a Red Twi’Lek known as Reveth
were ambushed by B1 battle droids while they were patrolling a misty swamp.
These droids were now considered ancient relics of the Clone Wars.
Some time later, Kix was also pulled out as a secret weapon by the Crimson Corsair’s
gang after getting into a dispute in deep space.
Upon hearing that a clone was in the crew, one of the enemy combatants said “What…
what kind of clone”, to which he was told “the only kind that anyone ever means when
they say “the clone”, the last clone”.
The enemy combatants had never seen anything like this before, as Kix was fighting with
pure anger and sadness.
He used to have millions of brothers, but now he’s the last… and he still hears
them.
They whisper to him.
And finally, we see Kix staying silent with the rest of his gang after a hard fought battle,
reminiscing again on his time fighting alongside his brothers.
Thanks so much for watching, really hope you enjoyed the video.
