Hey everyone! This is the continuation of "Light, Dark, and the Bendu" Enjoy!

"You've gotten better, Ezra." I said.

"I've got you and Kanan to thank." Ezra said.

I raised my lightsaber and blocked Ezra's green blade. Shifting my footing, I tripped up the teen and watched him fall flat on his back. I kicked away his lightsaber and pointed mine at him to claim my victory.

"Checkmate, kid." I said.

Ezra groaned and rolled his eyes. I offered my hand and Ezra took it. Ezra then used the Force and brought his lightsaber to him.

"Good practice today Ezra. You've really grown," I said.

"Thanks, Zelara. I got to remember when you change your footing. That's what keeps getting me," Ezra said.

"I can teach you how to use it against Kanan if you want."

"Definitely."

I smiled and nodded. I then saw Zeb and Sabine walk up to us.

"Hey, guys. What's up?" I asked.

"Kanan and Hera want us." Zeb said.

"Did they say what for?" Ezra asked.

"Nope. They just told us to get you two." Sabine said.

We nodded and followed the Lasat and Mandalorian to the center of the base. We soon saw Kanan and Hera standing in front of the Ghost.

"Good, you're all here," Hera said.

"What's this all about?" I asked.

"Sato gave us a mission to pick up some supplies from Carva and bring them back to base."

I already had something planned for today...

"Let's get a move on." Kanan said.

We nodded and started making our way on the Ghost.

"Hey Hera," I began.

"What is it, Zelara?" Hera asked.

"Would it be alright if I borrow the Phantom? I really need to talk to the Lothwolves about something."

"Talk to them about what?"

"It's hard to explain, but it's a question only they can answer."

Hera smiled softly and nodded.

"Of course. Besides Kanan and Chopper, I trust you with my ship." Hera said.

I smiled and sighed with relief.

"Thanks, Hera." I said.

The two of us then walked on board the Ghost. After a short while, we were soon in space, and I made my way to the Phantom.

I just hope the Loth-wolves have a solution for this...

I powered up the Phantom and detached it from the Ghost. Setting the coordinates for Lothal, the Phantom jumped into hyperspace. I sat back in the chair and sighed.

Wonder what the Loth-wolves are up to...

The Phantom jumped out of hyperspace and I finally saw the planet I missed dearly. After entering the planet's atmosphere, I landed the Phantom in the fields. I stepped out and sighed with content.

"How long has it been...?" I asked myself.

Not wanting to dwell on the question any further, I began making my way to the Lothwolf den. Gazing upon the familiar clearing, I sighed and walked in. I smiled as I watched the wolves bow their heads. I then saw him, standing on top of a high rock.

"I'm home Atlas..." I said.

Atlas jumped down from the rock and walked over towards me. He then placed his forehead on mine and let out a groan.

"I missed you..." he said

"I missed you, too..." I said.

I then turned to the other Loth-wolves and smiled.

"I missed you all." I said.

A chorus of howls soon filled the open air.

"Atlas, I've come asking for help." I said.

Atlas gestured his head as if he were telling me to continue.

"It's Crowvern... he's coming back for me, and I fear his power. He has a new apprentice, and I fear for their life, for they do not know the danger they're in." I said.

Atlas groaned and sat down.

"What should I do? What else can I do to put an end to him? How can I measure up to his power and strength?" I asked.

Atlas got up and howled, catching the attention of the other wolves. Atlas nodded and the others understood.

"Come..." Atlas said.

The other wolves and I didn't hesitate and followed Atlas without question. Atlas soon stopped, and in front of him was a stone pedestal with rock pillars surrounding it.

"Lightsaber..." Atlas said.

"My lightsaber?" I asked.

"Pedestal..."

I took out my lightsaber and walked up to the stone pedestal. Engraved on it was a wolf head. I exhaled and placed my lightsaber on the pedestal. After I did this, every wolf sat in front of a pillar. Atlas sat in front of the pillar that was in front of the pedestal.

"Move..." Atlas told me.

Heeding his warning, I stepped out of the area. After a while, night fell, and the stars and moons came out to play. Atlas got up and looked up at the moons. Inhaling deeply, he howled loudly. The other wolves did the same.

What is going on...?

Then, my lightsaber began to glow and change shape. The wolf head engraved in the pedestal began to glow a bright blue and enveloped my lightsaber in its light. After a while, the light died down. On the pedestal wasn't the same lightsaber I had before.

What just happened...?

I walked up to the pedestal and my eyes widened. The lightsaber before me was nothing like I've ever seen before. It had a black and silver hilt with two black and blue wolf heads on each side. It had a beautiful metallic black and silver finish grip, and it was glowing blue.

"What is this, Atlas?" I asked.

"Lone Wolf Saber..." he answered.

"The Lone Wolf Saber...?"

I activated the weapon and a royal blue blade appeared.

"Whoa..." I said.

"Feel the power... coursing through the blade... Respect its power..." Atlas said.

I deactivated the weapon and placed it on my belt.

"Thank you, all of you. With this, I really do hope that I can defeat Crowvern, once and for all." I said.

"But be warned..." Atlas said.

I looked at Atlas with a confused look.

"Crowvern's saber... the Dark Wing Saber... just as powerful as the Lone Wolf Saber..." Atlas said.

"Combined with his already incredible strength and power, he's close to being impossible to beat." I said.

Atlas nodded. I looked up at the night sky and sighed.

"What do I do, Mom...?" I asked.

"Fight..."

I turned around to the voice and saw my mother.

"You fight. You already played in his playing field. It's time for him to play in yours." she said.

Exactly what Bendu said...

"Zelara, you do not know the level of your power. You are so much more powerful than Crowvern. He's only powerful because he takes power. You're only powerful because you share and gain power. Use it to your advantage." Mother said.

"Yes, Mother." I said.

She then cupped her hands over mine.

"I'm always there to guide your hand. Remember that." she said.

"Always..." I said.

With a soft smile, she faded away. I looked at Atlas and smiled. He smiled inwardly and nodded.

"Want to give me a ride back to the Phantom?" I asked.

Atlas nodded and bent down. I mounted his back and gripped onto his fur as he stood up. Atlas was soon sprinting across the fields, feeling the evening breeze on my face. We made it to the Phantom, and I hopped off his back.

"Thank you, Atlas, for everything." I said, running my hand down his muzzle.

Atlas bumped his nose with mine and smiled. With a burst of energy, Atlas disappeared into the night. I boarded the Phantom and put in the coordinates for Atollon. After reaching deep space, the Phantom jumped into hyperspace.

The Lone Wolf Saber... Can't wait to test it out.

After a while, Atollon soon came into view. I spotted the Ghost and docked the Phantom. Walking through the Ghost, I saw Hera and the others waiting outside.

"Glad you're back, Zel." Kanan said.

"Same," I said.

"So, did you get the information you wanted from the Lothwolves?" Hera asked.

"That, and this."

I then showed them the Lone Wolf Saber.

"Whoa... I've never seen a lightsaber like that before," Ezra said.

"It's called the Lone Wolf Saber. A very powerful lightsaber," I said.

"The wolves gave it to you?" Zeb asked.

"I honestly don't know how, but they made it."

"They made it?" Sabine questioned.

"It's really hard to explain."

"Do you think they can do the same to my lightsaber?"

I chuckled and shook my head.

"Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that Ezra." I said.

"Too bad." Ezra said.

I smiled and looked down at my new lightsaber. My smile soon faded when I remembered what Atlas said.

"Crowvern's saber... the Dark Wing Saber... just as powerful as the Lone Wolf Saber..."

Just as powerful, huh...? Guess I need to step up my game and really train for this upcoming showdown with Crowvern...

Hey everyone! Hope you enjoyed this part! Suggestions are forever open. May the Force be with You!
