Chapter 5

Ezra's pov

"Helmet?" I hear someone shout behind me. I turn around to see Rex. How did he find me?!?!? I start to run away. I could hear him yelling for me to stop but I still keep up my pace.

And I thought this supply run would be easier, I WAS WRONG!!!!!! I need to find Kanan. My mistake for not paying attention to where I was going......AGAIN. Rex chases me all the way down to a parking lot. Wait we have a parking lot?

I try circling around the lot to lose him. In result, I get lost. Really? At least I lost Rex. I start to just walk and hopefully find the way out. While trying to figure out this maze of a parking lot, a strange voice appears in my mind. "Ezra...." All of a sudden I turn around and bump into someone and I scream.

"Hello there child." He says in a creepy tone. He looks like an old man with a black suit. "Uhhh hello." I say. Who is this guy? "Are you lost?" He asks me. "Um yeah." I say. "Well I do know the way out. Just come with me and I'll show you." He says. He tries to grab my arm but I step away before he could.

"N-n-no I'm f-fine." I say nervous. "Are you sure child?" He asks me. "I'm sure." I say. All of a sudden the man starts to say something in a different language. Sure wish Sabine was here to tell me what he's saying. "What?" I ask him still not clear on what he's saying. He then puts his hand over my forehead.

That's when everything goes black for a second. When my vision comes back, I see a man standing in front of me. Where am I? I thought I was still with Kanan. Did I forget something? "Who are you?" I ask the man. "You don't remember me?" He asks with a smirk. I shake my head. "Well I-" He gets cut off when Rex comes out of nowhere.

"Helmet I need to talk to.....who's this?" He asks me looking at the man. "I'm his relative." He says. Relative? "Is he your relative?" Rex asks me. "I....don't....know." I say very confused on what's happening. "Well nice meeting you, I'll be taking him back to his home." The man says and takes my hand.

"It's ok I'll take him I'm his Uncle anyways." Rex lies. What is going on?!?!??! "He's your uncle?" He asks me. "Yes?" I say. I rather go with Rex then this creepy man. "Ok well lets go." Rex says and we both walk away. I take one last glance at the man but he is already gone. For an old man he moves fast.

"Helmet I'm sorry to make you run away." He says. "What?" I ask him. He gives me a confused look. "When I tried to talk to you, you ran off." He says. "I did?" I ask him. "You don't remember?" He asks me. "All I remember was being with my master doing a supply run but then being here with that man." I say.

Rex starts to think for a second. "Well I just wanted to warn you that the clones were coming after you again." He says. "Wait what?!?!" I shout. "Don't worry while I lost you, a clone told me he contacted the clones and ordered them to go back." He says. I sigh in relief.

"Why did they want to take me anyways?" I ask him. Rex looks down not knowing what to say. "I don't know but they aren't going to take you. I will make sure of that." He says. "Thanks but I still don't know how I got here and where my master is." I say. That's when my com goes off.

"Specter 1 to specter 6." Kanan. "I'm guessing that's your master?" Rex asks me. "Yep." I say and take out my com. "Specter 6 here." I say. "Where are you?" Kanan asks me. "I'm still trying to figure that out but it looks like I'm in a parking lot. Wait when have we ever had parking lots?" I ask him.

"I'll be there soon. Specter 1 out." He says and hangs up. "My master is coming." I tell Rex. "You could go now thanks for the help with that man." I say and walk away from him. "Wait I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for what happened before." He says. "It's ok. It happens a lot." I say. "Really?" He asks me. I nod my head and walk away from him.

Rex's pov

This happens to him a lot? Well he is a padawan, many things will be after him. But who was that man before? I shake my head in confusion. Instead of walking back to the headquarters, I watch Helmet to make sure he makes a safe trip back.

As I'm watching him, he looks like he is still figuring out how he got here. How did he lose his memory in the first place? I then decide to turn around and leave thinking he is alright. But when I'm almost towards the exit, I hear a scream. Oh no.

I run back into the parking lot and follow the cry for help. When I see who needs help I see Helmet drowning in a small pool of water and a man with a ponytail trying to get him out. I rush to them and help him out. The man looks at me for a second but puts his focus back on Helmet.

While pulling him out of the water, arms pull him back in. My eyes widen in shock. Those arms look like skeletons. The man makes a look of fear and we both tighten our grip on Helmet. He looks extremely terrified on what's happening. I then take out my blaster and shoot the arms.

"AHHH!!!!!" They scream out and let go of Helmet. We both then pull him out, and the water hole closes. "Ezra are you ok?" The man says in a worried tone. Ezra? "Yeah, I'm fine." He says gasping for air. "You won't be able to keep him much longer!!!!" A voice says.  All of a sudden every starts to shake like an earthquake.

When it finally stops, we are all left speechless. "What in force just happened?!?!!" The man shouts. I still stay silent not knowing myself what happened. That's when the man looks at me. "Who are you?" He asks. Behind him, Helmet is pointing at him with widen eyes. I then realize the man is his master.

"My name is Rex, I don't mean any harm." I say. Suddenly he takes out his blaster in anger and points it at me. "Kanan stop!!!!" Helmet says and goes in front of me and blocks me from the blaster. "Ezra stay back." He tells him. "It's ok he saved me from those clones and helped save me from whatever that was." He says.

He just glares at me and finally lowers his blaster. "Fine but if you do anything you'll be dead." He says to me in an angry tone. "I won't I promise." I say. "Now can anyone explain what that was?" He asks. "I don't know." Helmet says. "Well we need to get back home and talk about this." He says. Helmet nods and they both start to leave.

"Be careful." I say to them. Only Helmet turns around and nods but his master keeps walking. I then turn back to the headquarters and hope for the best.
