A Love that Never Melts

A Love that Never Melts is a Winterwatcher fanfic made by Icestar.

## Chapter 1

Winter dashed around the sleeping cave. Qibli was snoring loudly, so he couldn't sleep confidently. His mind was also full of Moonwatcher. *Did she really leave me?* Winter thought.

"Qibli?" He called. "Qibli!!"

"Whaaaat?" Qibli said. Qibli stretched his wings. *Dumb*, Winter thought.

Than, a light shimmered through Qibli's body. Qibli went limp, and Moon came.

"I hate you Qibli. Go away and don't ever come here again, in Jade Mountain Academy." She said as she slapped Qibli's face.

"But-" Qibli stammered. "But I thought you loved me!"

"I was *pretending* to love you, you ignorant little sh/t."

Qibli flew away and disappeared from the world.

Winter and Moon danced together happily as the existence of Qibli vanished from the universe.

They made eggs together later as a celebration of erasing Qibli from the world.

They had 3 hybrid eggs in total.
Tennessee-class battleship

* 1920s
* 1940s

The ***Tennessee-class battleships*** consisted of two super-dreadnought battleships—*Tennessee* and *California*—built for the United States Navy in the late 1910s, part of the "standard" series. The class was in most respects a repeat of the preceding New Mexico class, with the primary improvements being a significantly strengthened underwater protection system, and increased elevation of the main batteryguns to allow them to fire at much greater ranges. They carried the same main battery of twelve 14-inch (356 mm) guns in four triple turrets, and had the same top speed of 21 knots (39 km/h; 24 mph). Both ships served in the Pacific Fleet for the duration of their careers, which included an extensive training program during the interwar period of the 1920s and 1930s.

Both ships were present in Battleship Row in Pearl Harbor when the Japanese attacked on December 7, 1941; *California* was torpedoed and sunk but *Tennessee* was only minimally damaged. *California* was refloated and both ships were heavily rebuilt between 1942 and 1944. The pair there after saw extensive service as bombardment vessels supporting the island-hopping campaign across the central Pacific. *Tennessee* took part in the Aleutian Islands campaign in mid-1943, the Gilbert and Marshall Islands campaign in late 1943 and early 1944, and the Mariana and Palau Islands campaign in mid-1944, by which time *California* had returned to the fleet as well.

They both took part in the Philippines campaign in late 1944, and were present at the Battle of Surigao Strait on 24 October, the final battleship engagement in history. A refit for *Tennessee* kept her from participating in the Battle of Lingayen Gulf in January 1945, where *California* was hit by a kamikaze, which in turn kept her from supporting Marine Corps troops during the Battle of Iwo Jima. *Tennessee* was heavily engaged in the fighting there and the subsequent Battle of Okinawa, where she, too, was hit by a kamikaze. The two ships spent the rest of the war patrolling the East China Sea until the official Japanese surrender in September. After briefly participating in the occupation of Japan, they were recalled to the United States and assigned to the Atlantic Reserve Fleet. They remained there until 1959, when *Tennessee* was sold for scrap and *California* was converted into a museum and memorial.

USS Saratoga (CV-60)

## USS Saratoga

The ***USS Saratoga (CV-60/CVA-60)*** is a *Forrestal*-class aircraft carrier built for the United States Navy. She was the second true ‘supercarrier’ built, and would serve for over four decades before becoming a museum in Jacksonville, Florida in the aftermath of the Clone Wars.

## History

Main Article: USS Saratoga

**1990s**

During this period several vessels of the 600-ships navy would remain in commission, including *Saratoga*, due to the rising galactic tensions, and eventually the outbreak of the Clone Wars. During this period much of the US Navy was deployed in ‘Fleet Problems’ in order to determine ways to best use the fleet, due to the fears of a CIS attack growing.

This would become a reality in late August, 1994, during which *Saratoga* would be deployed to assist in the Battle of Charleston. During this engagement, her aircraft would destroy over 30 Vulture droids in dogfights, destroy over 200 tanks, and escort Republic gunships when they arrived later in the battle.

Sadly the ship herself would not escape damage during the battle. During the later stages of the battle, a force of several dozen Vulture droid fighters and Hyena droid bombers would attack the task force, one would crash onto the deck of *Saratoga*, destroying two aircraft and killing 12 crewmen. Despite the damage, she would remain on station until the Separatists retreated the following day.

In the aftermath of the Sol Campaign, *Saratoga* would support relief efforts across Earth, and make good will port visits in Britain, France, and Japan. She would then be deployed on two hunter killer tours, hunting terrorist cells across the planet.

**Post-Clone Wars**

> “Sister Sara Naval Aviation Museum: Glowing on the sea since 1956” - Will Tipton
>
>

In the massive post-Clone Wars drawdown of Earth’s military forces, *Saratoga* was decommissioned in late 1997. She would be removed from the Naval Register a year later, and made available for use as a museum vessel. She would be purchased by the “USS Saratoga Foundation” in 2002, and moved to Jacksonville, Flordia. She would open three years later, as the only “super-carrier” museum until the conversion of *USS Kitty Hawk* , the “USS Saratoga Naval Aviation Museum”.

## Trivia

* USS Saratoga was the second aircraft carrier to bear the name, after USS Saratoga (CV-3). In real life she was decommissioned in 1993, and sold for scrap in late 2010.

Ahsoka Tano

> "As a Jedi, we were trained to be keepers of the peace, not soldiers. But all I’ve been since I was a padawan is a soldier."
> ― Ahsoka to Rex
>
>

**Ahsoka Tano**, nicknamed **Ash** by Thomas Wilson, was a former Jedi Padawan born during the final years of the Galactic Republic. At the age of three she was discovered on her homeworld, Shili, by Jedi Master Plo Koonand subsequently brought to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to be trained in the ways of the Force as a Jedi.

Following the outbreak of the Clone Wars, Jedi Grand Master Yoda assigned the young Tano to be the Padawan learner of Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, whom she joined at the Battle of Christophsis. Whereas Tano was eager to prove herself, Skywalker had a reputation for recklessness, and they had a rather difficult start as master and apprentice. Yet, they worked together to rescue Rotta, the son of crime lord Jabba the Hutt, and returned Rotta to his father, thus facilitating a crucial alliance between the Hutt Clan and the Galactic Republic.

During the conflict, Tano served as a commander of the 501st Legion as Skywalker's apprentice and fought in many battles alongside him and his master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Over the next few years, Tano would gain much experience on the warfront via numerous battles such as the Sol Campaign, the Second Battle of Geonosis and Umbra Campaign, turning from a reckless and eager teenager and into a much more matured and enlightened individual. In the final months of the war however, Tano was framed for the bombing of the Jedi Temple by her friend, Barriss Offee, and subsequently expelled from the Jedi Order. Although she would later be cleared of her charges after the truth was discovered and she was offered a place back in the ranks of the Jedi Order, the experience shattered her faith and trust in the Order and she declined to return.
Despite declining to rejoin the Jedi Order, Tano would be nonetheless return to the warfront in order to lead both Terran and Republic forces during the Siege of Mandalore in an effort to capture the former Sith apprentice Darth Maul. Although the assault proved successful, she, as well as clone Captain Rex, ARC trooper Jesse, and several other clones were forced to go into hiding when Order 66 was enacted by the Sith Lord Darth Sidious.

**Obi-Wan Kenobi** was a Force-sensitive human male and a legendary Jedi Master who lived during the rise of the Galactic Empire. A noble man known for his skills with the Force, Kenobi trained Anakin Skywalker, and served as a Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars.

Born on the planet Stewjon in 57 BBY, Kenobi was inducted into the Jedi Order at a young age and became the apprentice of Qui-Gon Jinn after completing his initial lessons under Grand Master Yoda. During the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY, Kenobi defeated the Sith Lord Darth Maul and was awarded the status of Jedi Knight. Kenobi also began training Anakin Skywalker, having promised his dying master that the boy would become a Jedi, but often had to rein in his adventure-seeking apprentice.

When the Clone Wars began in 22 BBY, the Jedi rallied to defend the Galactic Republic against the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and Kenobi became a general in the newly-formed Republic Military. Kenobi and Skywalker often served alongside each other, leading their respective clone trooper divisions, the 212th Attack Battalion, and the 501st Legion, against the Separatist Droid Army. During this time, Skywalker took on an apprentice in Ahsoka Tano.

Her fate would take a different turn when the Japanese ministry of defense announced they were looking to purchase a carrier from a foreign nation. After considering either British or French carriers, *Oriskany* was chosen as she was in the best material condition. After a slight refit, she was recommissioned as the JS *Yonaga* meaning ‘Long Night’, referring to Japans fate during and after World War II.

Her air group upon commissioning was two squadrons of F-8J Crusaders, two squadrons of A-7A Corsair IIs, E-1 Tracers, EKA-3B Skywarriors, and RF-8G photo Crusaders.

USS Yorktown (CV-10)

* World War II
* Cold War

> “They called her ‘The Fighting Lady’, and you better believe she lived up to that nickname.” - William F. Halsey Jr.
>
>

***USS Yorktown (CV/CVA/CVS-10)*** is one of 24 *Essex*-class aircraft carriers built during World War II for the United States Navy. Initially to have been named *Bonhomme Richard*, she was renamed *Yorktown* while still under construction, after the lead ship of the *Yorktown*-class aircraft carriers, *USS Yorktown* (CV-5), which was sunk at the Battle of Midway. She is the fourth U.S. Navy ship to bear the name, though the previous ships were named for 1781 Battle of Yorktown. Seeing major action throughout World War II, including the battles of Leyte Gulf, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, where she would assist in the destruction of the *Yamato*-class battleship *Musashi* during Operation Ten-Go.

She would be later decommissioned post-war, but be recommissioned and modernized a short time later in the 1950s. She would be designated a anti-submarine carrier in the 1960s, during which she would also be the recovery ship for Apollo. Decommissioned in 1970, she would be turned into a museum ship in Charleston, South Carolina in 1975 as the first ship of the *Patriots Point Naval Museum*, while also being the first *Essex*-class carrier and second aircraft carrier overall to be preserved.

## History

Main Article: USS Yorktown (CV-10)

**Clone Wars**

Her status as a museum wouldn’t keep the ship from seeing battle once more however. During the Separatist attack on Earth, she would be present for the Battle of Charleston, where she would be moderately damaged be several hits from AAT tanks, strafing runs from fighters, and even a hit from a crashing Vulture droid. She would however, survive the battle mostly intact despite the major damage to the majority of the city.

**Post-Battle of Charleston**

After the conclusion of the battle, Yorktown would have her condition assessed. It was decided that while she was in no danger of sinking, she required a dry dock to fix the damaged sustained from the battle. In Early November, the process would begin of removing the ship from the silt that had built up around the hull after she had been put in place 20 years earlier. This would be completed by mid-December, and she would be taken to the Bayonne Dry Dock in New Jersey in early January.

Her time spent in dry dock would see hull waterline hull repair to full thickness, her flight deck and starboard side had its damaged repaired, and the ship would have both her interior and exterior repainted, while her exterior also received a layer of cosmolime pas protection from the elements. Total costs for be repairs would cost almost $58 million dollar and would take over a year. She would return to her berth in Charleston in June of 1996, at which point the Clone Wars would be in its final phase.

## Trivia

* In real life, *Yorktown* would be the first aircraft carrier preserved as a museum and memorial, and can still be seen today.

Berlin-class corvette

> *“They're tearing us apart out here!”*
> - Unknown Imperial T.I.E pilot, upon encountering a pair of Berlin-class corvettes
>
>

The ***Berlin-class corvette*** is class of light warships designed for use by the Terran Systems Alliance Navy. They were built to escort supply convoys, larger capital ships, and neutralize enemy fighter wings. They would become the most numerous class of vessel to serve in the Terran Systems Starfleet, and would remain in service for over 50 years.

## History

**Clone Wars**

The first of the class, *TSS Berlin*, along with its five sister ships, *TSS San Diego*, *TSS Tampa*, *TSS Yokosuka*, *TSS Bristol*, and *TSS Marseille*, were scheduled to be dry docked when the Confederacy of Independent Systems launched its assault on the Sol System. The vessels performed admirably in their designed role of anti-fighter defense, destroying almost 200 droid craft during the course of the battle. After this attack, ninety-four more of the class were ordered.

The original six vessels were repaired in late 1994, and shortly afterward were deployed in a task-force with two *Consular*-class cruisers to raid CIS convoys carrying supplies to beleaguered battlefields. Shortly after one of these raids, the class’s first true combat test would occur when the task force received a distress signal from the *Venator*-class Star destroyer *Temptation*, which was under attack by a pair of *Munificent*-class star frigates. During this engagement, the sextuple of *Berlins* systematically tore apart one *Munificent*, while the pair of *Consulars* and the *Temptation* destroyed the other.

**Post-Clone Wars**

During the post-Clone Wars era, over 600 of the class would be built to coincide with a fleet wide buildup of Terran manufactured warships. With the Completion of the Terran Star-Forge in 2008, construction rate of the newer vessels increased exponentially.

**Galactic Civil War**

Two years before the Battle of Yavin, several of the vessels would be ‘stolen’ by the Alliance to Restore the Republic, in order to supply the enemies of the Empire with an effective anti-starfighter platform. The class would see action again during the Galactic Civil War, where it participated in every major engagement of the war from the Battle of Scarif to the Battle of Coruscant. Several dozen of the vessels would be purchased by the New Republic in the aftermath of the Battle of Endor, seeing even more action under their banner.

In total, almost 1,200 vessels of the class would be built over the course of a little less than three decades, with the final vessel, *TSS Sioux City*, being commissioned on June 12, 2022.

TSS Valkyrie

The ***TSS Valkyrie (CCV-1)*** was a lead ship of the *Valkyrie*-class of battlecarriers. Commissioned only two months before the Sol Campaign, she would be on the precipice of the engagement, where she destroyed 6 *Munificent*-class frigates and 2 *Recusant*-class destroyers over the course of the battle. In return, she received heavy damage and would be out for repairs for the next 5 months. She would later participate in several crucial engagements through out the Clone Wars, including the Battle of Coruscant. After the conflict she would be reduced to a peacetime complement, and serve as a anti-piracy vessel. She would later participate in both the battles of Earth and Endor. After the conclusion of the Galactic Civil War and with so many of her newer sisters in service, she would be decommissioned in 2022.

USS Independence (CV-62)

***USS Independence (CV/CVA-62)*** is an aircraft carrier built for the United States Navy. She was the fourth and final member of the Forrestal-class aircraft carrier. She entered service in 1959, with much of her early years spent in the Mediterranean Fleet. She would serve through out The Cold War, seeing service anywhere her nation saw fit to send her. After serving in the Sol Campaign during the Clone Wars, Independence was decommissioned in 1998 after 39 years of active service and stored at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington. In 2004, she would be selected for use in Project: Kraken]] and transferred to the Galactic Empire. After a short time, she would be given to Moff Vezo Callum for his own personal use. The Moff would the turn the ship into the centerpiece of his collection of artifacts.

## History

Main Article:USS Independence

**Clone Wars**

During the Sol Campaign, *Independence* would be deployed to assist in the Battle of Charleston, where her aircraft provided air support and destroyed several droid fighters. When the task force came under direct attack near the end of the battle, *Independence’s* aircraft prevented most droid craft from getting through to the fleet, though some would still be able to ram the *USS Saratoga*. In the aftermath of the battle, she would remain the only carrier stationed on the lower east coast as *Saratoga* fell back for repairs and *USS Philippine Sea* accompanied her. After being replaced by *USS Enterprise* a week later, she would return to her home port of Norfolk.

In 1995, she would be deployed to replace *USS Midway* as the forward deployed carrier in Japan, as the former was being decommissioned. She would remain here, until the aftermath of the Clone Wars lead to many military assets being decommissioned, which included *Independence*. She would be decommissioned on September 30, 1998 and placed in the reserve fleet.

**Post Decommissioning**

In 2004, she would be selected for use in Project: Kraken]] and transferred to the Galactic Empire. In 2007, she would be given to Moff Vezo Callum for his own personal use. The Moff would the turn the ship into the centerpiece of his collection of military artifacts.
