Trial By Fire

It's been a month and half since the hostage taking of Leia but the rebels have came along way not just getting recognized and rebuilding their fleet but they finally found a place to set up a base . As the found out the hard way the place was inhabited by Kryka spiders. Whenever the three Jedi would be preparing to leave and when they would be gone it hurt the others as if they were ghost. 

It was quite night on the ghost everyone was asleep except Ezra he was woken by a nightmare that worries him to the deepest depths of his heart, the love he has for his family and especially Sabine. While he sat in the couch of the common room drinking a glass of iced water , he thought about how his connection with the force have grown greatly but also the connections with his family have grew , from zeb and him like brothers that could always cause mischief especially after they stole that TIE that they will come back to someday. After those thoughts he closed his eyes bringing the memories of the nightmare back again. 

The nightmare 

Sabine Pov through Ezra 

We have pulled back into the tunnels like rats , the empire sent a new weapons to use on us a target practice. I watched as the strike team of three transports and a squadron of fighters mixed of the other clans headed towards the capital city, as me and Bo Katan watched from a distance as the team neared closer that's when we saw what the rumors were about, in a sudden moment millions of red bolts filled the night ski with them tearing apart our people in a instant with explosions and burning wings, and just utter chaos in the ski. I looked at my brother who was watching as we saw some of the survivors that barely survived heading to land with their jet packs to only get shredded on the ground or in the air and that's not including the TIE Defenders  cleaning up anything there by firing their rockets at the burning wrecks. My people couldn't get support in from the rebellion or any other colonies due to a interdictor cruiser with a communication ship that blocked communication along with 2 star destroyers around the capital. 

End of nightmare 

Ezra had tears down his cheeks, seeing the home of the girl he loved being sent literally underground to survive sickened him to the point he sat the cup down and ran through the ghost to the fence of the base and threw up repeatedly from feeling a wave of pain from the nightmare hit him hard bringing him to his knees. Once Ezra regained himself he heard a fimiliar voice, "Hey Ezra are you doing okay?" Ashoka asked, "No.... I feel like the inside of my body is on fire." He replied with a tear running down his cheek. That's when Ashoka walked up behind him and placed a hand on his shoulder followed by "let's do a dual get your young mind off it... that's what my master taught me... to stay busy with something else as you connect with the force." Ashoka answered . That's when they both heard the snapping sound of a Kyrka spider and they looked at where the sound have came from and saw a spider that had bits everywhere as if it had survived just like Ezra during its life. That's when Ezra took a deep breath and started to connect with the animal, he felt it's fight for food with others as the spider felt Ezra's survived similar pain and including the wound he sustained on his shoulder. Both beast and Jedi having a similar story of their suffering stayed there bleeding the fear, suffering and pain through Ezra into the force as the sunrise of Atollon started to rise the force healed his body from the late night.  With both ending their tormented past Through the force Ezra sent the creature a simple message "Hope" followed by him disconnecting with it and opening his eyes to see the spider ever so silently run off and seeing it look back every so often at the two Jedi. 


Ashoka felt the pain and more through the force but it eventually turned to peace but this morning was still sad because today was when they would be leaving for Malachor after Yoda told Ezra that's the answer to his question of how to fight the sith. As the crew woke they felt different in a happy way each one thinking of one word HOPE  and  Sabine especially who her heart was burning with hope. Once the others started to sit down for breakfast that's when zeb realized the kid wasn't there so kanan got up and went outside to find Ezra just standing by the fence peacefully letting the wind blowing through his hair. That's when he heard a voice in his head "Trust in The force.... always." A female told him through the force. "Ezra breakfast is ready." Kanan yelled at him in a calm father tone that's when Ezra turned around and walked towards the ghost then Ashoka too came up out of no where scaring the master seeing if she could join them and with a simple nod in approval the three Jedi walked up the ramp for breakfast. 

When they all sat down for breakfast Sabine noticed a hand sitched Starbird on Ezra's OD green shirt. As she examined the pain staking artwork her heart was beating hard , it was that moment she fallen in love with him but she hid it from them being the mando she is. 

15 minutes passed for the crew , breakfast was light today which usually meant kanan and Ezra were leaving. Chopper rolled through the hallway to start doing a quick scan for any damage to the phantom , while in the cockpit Hera and Kanan shared a moments long kiss that made them both feel like no tomorrow followed by promise of kanan coming home. Meanwhile Ezra just walked outside his door to find a sad Sabine leaning on her door waiting on him most likely that's when she lunged at him and cried into his shoulder only repeating one thing "your my closet friend please come back(sob)... please." She told him, Ezra rubbed her back and using the force to send her a feeling of comfort . After a few minutes that both felt like hours they separated and made their way to the common room where the found the others waiting. The others gave good byes and once he got to Hera she hugged him tightly and kissed his forehead gently making Ezra feel embarrassed in front of Sabine and Ashoka which them two just started laughing. 

After a few minutes the Jedi climbed up the ladder and when everyone was inside chopper detached from the ghost and started the beginning of what they were looking answers for. Sabine watched it happen as they flew away it felt like a part of her was gone and once she heard they had left the system shyest ran inside her room and locked the door and sobbed begging for them to return home safe.
