Prologue
Ezra opened his eyes blinking as the bright light blinded him. As soon as his vision cleared he saw he was in a strange room with white brick walls. There was something soft underneath him. He felt around him realizing he was on an actual bed with a pillow. He tried to sit up only to be pushed back down gently by an arm with a tan sleeve.
"Not so fast youngling. You just woke up." A woman's voice said. For some reason it sounded familiar but not like someone he knew. It was as if he had heard it in a vision or dream.
"Where am I? Who are you? Where's Kanan and the others?" he asked the woman.
"You're at the temple Ezra. You're master is still sleeping. As for the rest of your crew they aren't here." she replied.
"Temple? How? Who are you?"
"You asked who I am twice already." she said helping him up. He took notice of her two loops of black braids and two dots on her forehead.
"Well you still haven't answered." Ezra replied. "You look familiar though."
"Well we have met in Visions before. Both yours and mine. I'm Depa it's nice to finally meet you Ezra." She replied.
"Kanan's master?"
"Well I knew him as Caleb, but yes" she laughed.
"Wait am I dead?"
"Kinda, it's hard to explain. All Force users are in this temple. Those that have become one with the force are awake while those that are still 'alive' are asleep." Depa explains to him.
"Kanan's still asleep?"
"He is. You weren't supposed to wake up first."
"How did I die?"
"You were captured by the empire. Kanan still doesn't know."
"Can I see him?" Ezra asked.
Depa helped Ezra up and walked him across the room. Kanan laid on a bed sleeping. Ezra glanced around noticing that all the other beds in the room were empty except for Kanan's and a crib with a baby twi lek in it. She looked a lot like Hera but she had brown hair growing on her head and head tails.
"Ezra? Where is he?" Kanan asked in his sleep.
"I'm right here Kanan." Ezra said grabbing his master's hand.
"No! He can't be. Ezra!" Kanan continued moving.
"They must have told him." Depa said casualty.
"Who's the baby?" Ezra asked her.
"She doesn't have a name yet. She just showed up a few days ago. We don't know why she's in here. It took us a years to figure out why you were in here. Most younglings are in the nursery or the children's dorms. For years we've been trying to figure out why you and the others were in the line dorms. Once you're master started training you it became clear. We still have no explanation for this little one or the two in Anakin's room."
"Is Ahsoka in there?"
"She is."
"Can we see her?"
"Why don't I give you a tour of the temple?" Depa offered guiding Ezra out of the room. "We'll check on your master/ my padawan later."
"Ok." Ezra said. Part of him didn't want to leave Kanan's side. The other part of him was curious as to what this place was like.
