The Ghost was able to make their getaway with Sebil's favorite thing to do: make the transport explode within the Star Destroyer. Hera then sighed in relief as the ship went into hyperspace and sat up straight as Kanan came in, with Sebil, saying "That whole thing was a setup."

"You think Vizago was in on it?" Sebil asked curiously.

"He'd sell his mother to Jawas for a couple of credits. But we're a source of income for him. Even odds, he didn't know," Hera responded reminding Sebil of their value to Vizago while Zeb entered the cockpit and sat in his seat with a downcast look.

"The kid did okay?" Hera asked curiously wondering how the girl did.

"The girl did fine but she has some explaining to about that burst of white energy shield she was able to make from her own two hands. In all my years of traveling, I've never seen anything like it. Where is she?" Kanan responded before asking the question to Zeb while Hera and Sebil were staring at Kanan wide-eyed at just hearing this.

"I....uh....I thought she was with you," Zeb said with guilt sounding loud and clear in his voice making the entire crew look at him with suspicion.

"Zeb, what did you do to her?" Sebil asked a pit growing in his stomach at the horrible thing that could've happened to Era.

"I didn't do anything to her. The ISB agent grabbed her," Zeb said mumbling the last sentence to himself.

"What?!" the entire crew yelled out with Kanan and Sebil now turning to face Zeb fully while Hera was staring at Zeb in shock and horror.

"The girl got grabbed and used her weird powers to shut the door to allow us to escape okay?!" Zeb yelled out for them all to hear.

"Garazeb Orrelios!" Hera said to Zeb sternly using his full name showing how mad she was at him.

"Oh come on. We were dumping her off after the mission. It saves us fuel. They'll go easy on her. She's just a kid. Right?" Zeb asked the last part to Kanan seeing as how he had seen the girl use her powers with his own eyes.

Kanan just sighed and said, "After the discovery, I don't think the Imperials will go easy on her at all," shocking the entire crew.

"But she's just a kid," Sebil whispered in horror sadly thinking about the horrible things they could do to her to get her to speak.

Era had regained consciousness and sat up to see that she was in a holding cell. Not sure of what else to do, she sat on the back bench and waited until someone came in. Soon, her cell door opened, from the bottom to the top, to reveal the agent that grabbed her standing in a tall, relaxed, and commanding form. "I'm Agent Kallus of the Security Beru. And you are?" Kallus asked while introducing himself as he walked into Era's cell before making a complete stop a few feet away from her.

"Jabella the Hutt," Era spoke bitterly using a fake name for some comfort of security.

Kallus raised an eyebrow not believing her for one bit. "Look, I just met those rebels. I don't know anything about them," Era was trying to explain but was interrupted by Kallus saying "You're not here for what you know, Jabella, you're here to be used as bait upon our return to Lothal. If the team doesn't return then you shall be taken into Imperial custody so we can study your abilities and use it to our advantage."

"Wait, you really think that..? Wow, your about as bright as a binary droid," Era said spitting that out in front of his face as she stood to face him before continuing on bitterly, "They're not going to come for me. People never did that. But don't expect me to be staying in my cell for too long until we arrive on Lothal."

"Then I would expect nothing less from you Loathrat," Kallus sneered before leaving the cell and giving orders to his troopers.

The two troopers then walked inside the cell and checked for any weapons before taking away her raggedy dress disguise to reveal a tight black long-sleeved shirt, that went towards her neck and halfway past her elbows, short black fingerless gloves, long skinny black pants, old 'dusty' knee-high combat boots, a make-shift cast around one of them, a black gun on each side of the belt she wore around her waist, that went down to her thighs, two packets of extra ammo on either leg, a special black packet in the back of her belt, a piece of black leather around her neck, black blaster proof armor pads that covered the shoulders, elbows, chest, back, and kneecaps, and a silver chain necklace that went past the black leather necklace and held a sliver of a red gem that was enchanted to help, and warn, of danger.

Without warning, the troopers confiscated her guns, ammunition, and secret special black packet before leaving her alone in her cell without her ragged dress on while still having her headdress cloth wrapped around her left foot inside her boot. Taking off the boot, she gently unwrapped her cloth to survey the damage that was done to her ankle and could see that it was turning purple and probably would leave a bruise as a sprained ankle would. Something clattered to the floor, catching her attention, making her turn to see that it was the golden cube object a few feet away from her just standing there doing nothing.

Sighing, Era went back on concentrating on the task at hand and closed her eyes to take a breath. Soon, clicking was heard and a voice said, making Era open her eyes in astonishment to see a man wearing some kind of weird clothing robes, "This is Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic have fallen. With a dark shadow of the Empire rising to take its place. This is a message to any surviving Jedi, trust in the Force."

After that was said, the man disappeared inside the cube and the pieces floating around the strange object floated back to it in a weird form before floating back onto the ground safely without making a sound to alert the guards. In shock, Era scooted over to the object and took a hold of it before making a decision.

"No, no, no, no, no, NO WAY! You cannot be serious!" Zeb shouted after hearing what Hera had to say.

"It's our fault that she was there. If we don't do anything, they might do terrible things to her just to get a hold of the kind of power she has," Hera reminded Zeb.

"Oh, come Hera. We've just met the girl. We're not going back for her," Zeb insisted while Sebil had a downcast look on his face before saying, "They'll be waiting for us. I'm afraid we can't do it."

Hera stared at the two sadly before facing forward to continue steering the ship but then heard Chopper say something that made her smile. "What? What did he say?" Zeb asked curiously.

"He voted with me, that's two against two. Kanan, you have the deciding vote," Hera responded to Zeb before addressing their leader of his vote.

Back at the Destroyer inside the cells, Era concentrated on all her energy on the panel outside her cell and could hear it sparking. The troopers then opened the door to stun the girl only for Era to use her white energy to pull the troopers towards her then hurl them to the wall on either side of the doorway. She then quickly made her way out of the cell and said, "Bye guys," before closing the door on them and used her powers to lock it down.

Smirking, Era made her way to the weapons room and found her gear and disguise there. Acting fast, she placed her gear back on but did not put on her disguise dress and instead just wrapped it around her waist as she knew that it would be difficult to wear the disguised dress while in the vents. That was why she had her headband clothing wrapped around her left ankle to (1) make sure that it will not be even more hurt and (2) it would probably get caught in the vents and leave a trail for the troopers to see that she was there.

Glancing around, a familiar cadet helmet caught her eye before she went over to it and tried it on. There was some static in the frequency before she was able to adjust it and hear "The delay was insignificant. The Imperial Transport ship Kallus diverted will dock on Kessel within two hours and the Wookies will be delivered to work off in the spice mines on K77."

"This is Stormtrooper Ls05 reporting to Kallus," a trooper said over the frequency.

"Agent Kallus here," Kallus's voice responded over the comm.

"Sir, the prisoner has escaped," the trooper reported with nervousness in his voice as far as Era could tell.

"What?.....How did the rebels get on board?" Kallus asked questioning the troopers.

"Uhhh....sir....the rebels didn't free them umm...." the trooper responded with nervousness really deep in his voice.

"Agent Kallus. There's a security breach on the lower hangar," a man reported over the comm making Era's eyes widen before she quickly went up into the vents and started crawling to get out of any Imperial sight.

"I don't know how, but the rebel ship got past us without alerting our sensors," the man said reporting his finding back over the comm to Kallus making Era gasp in shock and accidentally hit the top of her head against the top of the vent.

"Ow. I can't believe it. They came back for me," Era said to herself trying to see if this was just her imagination playing with her.

"Order all squads to the lower hangar," Kallus ordered snapping Era out of her reverie and focusing on reality.

Coughing twice, Era then pressed the transmitter button and said in a low voice, "This is Trooper LS123 reporting intruders in the upper hanger. Sir, I believe that the lower hangar is a diversion."

"Maybe, maybe not," Kallus said over the comm while deep in thought before saying, "Squads 5 to 8, divert to the upper hangar. The rest of the squad's will divert to the lower hangar with me and keep a lookout for that girl. We need her."

Era just shrugged, while turning off the transmitter button, and said to herself, "Well, every little bit helps," before continuing on getting to the lower hangar.

Soon, she heard some voices that were familiar to her and quickly jumped through the open vent before landing a few feet in front of the rebels startling them. Rolling her eyes, she took off the cadet helmet and said "Seriously guys? It's me."

"How do we really know who you are? Your wearing a bucket," Zeb complained making Era roll her eyes in annoyance before she let out a yelp as she was shocked into a wall hard making her lose the cadet helmet.

"Era!" Sebil yelled out in worry for his friend.

Struggling against her attacker, Era kneed the person hard in the stomach and was about to punch them to knock them unconscious when she heard a familiar voice say, "Should've learned how to fight like the rest of us."

Widening her eyes in horror, her attacker took advantage of the distraction to punch Era, in the face, and throw her over to the side, send her rolling towards her rebel friends. Sebil came to her aid and quickly helped her stand but Era pushed away anymore of his help and turned to face the attacker while saying, "You're right. I should've learned how to fight but I already have learned how to fight. Just not your way."

After saying those words, she sent out a blast of white energy against her attacker, knocking him backwards a bit before running, jumping a bit high in the air, and kicking him downwards on the chest knocking him to the ground unconscious. Stepping around his body, Era grabbed her new cadet helmet and said, "We better get going "

Taking those words to heart, Sebil motioned for her to follow him, with Kanan in the front and Zeb in the back, and they all began to run as Kallus and his troopers arrived to take them down. Era threw her helmet at Kallus but he knocked it away with his gun and began shooting at them. They all made it up the ramp while Kanan contacted Hera telling her to prepare the ship for takeoff as they now have the girl with them. Feeling someone watching her, Era turned to see that it was her attacker who was glaring holes into her back. Glaring back, Era snarled at him saying, "All traitors die at the hands of the Empire," before fleeing into the ship with Kanan and Sebil not far behind.

The ramp was rose and the ship was about to take off but they needed a distraction. Luckily, Sebil had an artistic one in mind and pressed a detonator button that causes the Phoenix symbol, that he painted earlier, to explode causing the ships shields to be turned off and making everything fly into space. Kallus was close to the hole and yelled to a trooper, "Turn on the shields!"

The trooper quickly did so and the air sucking everything out into space was stopped but it didn't stop the Ghost from exiting the Destroyer and flying out into hyperspace. Hera sat back at her seat in relief of this mission. The door to the cockpit opened to reveal Era standing there wanting to talk to her. "Well welcome aboard. Again," Hera said with a smile.

"Thanks. Thank you for saving me back there. I wasn't so sure that you were gonna come back for me," Era aid sincerely to the Twi'lek with a smile making the Twi'lek smile as well.

"I'll get you home right away. I'm sure your parents must be worried sick," Hera said in an attempt to assure the girl of their intentions.

Era's smile then fell making her look at the floor in sadness and saying, "I don't have parents." 'At least I think I don't,' she thought to herself but didn't say outloud.

Hera stated at the young girl with a sad look on her face and couldn't help but feel sorry for the kid and what the kid went through. "And besides, you guys have somewhere else to be," Era mentioned while Kanan and Sebil appeared before taking their respective seats.

"I know where their really taking the Wookies," Era announced before continuing, while asking in a unsure tone, "Ever heard of the spice mines of Kessel?"

That made all the crew freeze and Era could feel the heavy sadness in the air while waiting for an answer. "Slaves are sent there for six months, maybe a year," Sebil begins to explain before letting Hera take over saying, "And for Wookies, born of the forest, it's a death sentence."

This saddened Era before she straightened up and said, "Then I guess we better go get them," making everyone in the cockpit stop and turn to her.

"We?" Sebil asked making sure that he heard that word right.

"Come this far. Might as well finish the job," Era answered with a smile.

"Setting course for Kessel," Hera said turning back to her instruments to steer the ship towards their destination.

Era then turned to look at Kanan, who looked back at her for a bit before turning back to the front to make a plan for this mission, before looking down at her makeshift cast that held the object inside. Why would he hold an object that told of the Jedi unless...., Era thought to herself before dismissing it because the Empire wiped out all the Jedi before she was born.

At least that was what she thought....
