Chapter 1

Where had he gone wrong?

In the Medbay of The Ghost, on one of the normally empty beds his raven haired, electric eyed boy that wore an orange pilots suit was in deep slumber a monitor to his boy's left signalling the unsteady heartbeat of the human child, an oxygen mask over the boy's mouth were his ragged breaths emanated from, around his torso were bandages upon bandages proving that the youngling had suffered a deep wound.

That was all Kanan Jarrus was focused on as he gazed at his unresponsive Padawan.

4 months earlier

The crew of the Ghost stood in the missions room , each members face grim. Kanan looked at his crew. Hera was seated her arms crossed chopper by her side, Zeb was leaning against the wall looking uninterested and Ezra, his student was figiting around with his newly built lightsaber.

" Sabine " Said Kanan, gaining the entire crews attention " What's the emergency ? "

" Well " Said the Mandalorin as she looked to him and the crew " Remember when Tessbo "willingly" gave us Imperial Intel, I found something strange about a mining industry the empire had. Their mining these stones called Kyber crystals and are planning to use them to enhance there blaster power. "

Kanan sighed as he looked to Hera and something silent passed between them.

" Where's the factory ? " he asked

" On Lothal, most factories are on Lothal anyway " stated the Mandalorin already anticipating what the crews next course of action would be.

" Kanan " asked Ezra as he turned toward his student " I thought only Jedi could use Kyber crystals "

Kanan smiled at his student, and gently ruffled Ezra's raven hair. The boy playful scowled at him as he laughed.

" Not always kid, The crystals can be minded but they are more powerful in the hands of a force user " (1) He stated as Ezra nodded in understanding. Then out of no where he saw the youngling start smirking and Kanan felt Ezra's excitement transmitting over the still grow bond between them.

" Well then why don't we take back what's ours, can't have the Empire turn into Jedi right ? That just won't be fair " Ezra said with an ear splitting grin. The entire crew laughed and Kanan smirked.

" Damn right kid damn right "

xXx

" Now do we all know the plan ? " asked Kanan for the millionth time as the entire crew groaned. The Jedi sheepishly looked at his crew as he rubbed the back of his neck. Ezra smirked and lightly punched Kanan on the shoulder, the wind blow his long hair into his face.

" We all got it " said Zeb " so stop worrying ya worse than Hera " and with that both the Lasat and Mandalorin jumped off the ship onto the imperial factories roof.

" He's got a point love, maybe I'm rubbing off on you " said Hera with a small giggle as Kanan pouted like little girl.

" I doubt that, if Kanan was a mother hen then I would be cut some slack in training " stated his student as Ezra smiled and jump of the Ghost's ramp and onto the roof.

" you better get going love, the kids will definitely not wait for you "

" I know, wish us luck ? " He said as the Twi'lek shook her head fondly, her head tails saying with the wind.

" You don't need it, all you need is hope that your student doesn't run into any trouble " Stated Hera matter-of-factly and Kanan chuckled, then with a two fingered salute he jumped off the ramp and landed beside his Padawan.

" Glad you could join us Master " said his boy and Kanan smiled whenever Ezra called him Master it made him feel that he was doing right by the boy, that he was needed and he couldn't be more happy.

" Let's get inside " said Sabine as she opened up the roofs vent and jumped in without a second thought. The boys smirked and followed her down the vent and landed in a small grey hall.

" Alright this is where we split up, Zeb, Sabine your our ground distraction while Ezra and I find the Kyber shipment "

Three heads nodded in sink.

" Good luck " Kanan said as he and Ezra took off in the opposite direction of Zeb and Sabine.

A few minutes later as he and Ezra were running down the halls four loud explosions sounded throughout the base followed by a wailing alarm and the sound of troopers running toward the hanger bay. Ezra grinned.

" Kanan do you think the others are causing trouble ? "

" Yes kid absolutely "

They both laughed as they came to a stop outside the storage facilities, two troopers stood guard outside one of the doors and Kanan sighed, then he jumped out with his blaster raised and two stun shots later the bucket heads were on the ground unmoving.

" Strike ! " yelled Ezra as the raven stood beside him. Kanan rolled his eyes as he ruffled his boys hair.

" Come on kid your up next "

Ezra gave him a salute and started hacking the control pad a few seconds later ( because his student was just that good ) the doors opened up with a quite swish and Ezra looked up to him with a grin.

" Kyber shipment in sight " said the boy as he and Ezra walked into the dimly lit room. As Kanan walked further into the room a sense of dread and fear filled his being from the core. Fear so strong he had to hold his hand to stop it from shaking.

" Ezra stay behind me "He said as Ezra looked back at him in confusion, Kanan swallowed thickly as his hand hovered over his lightsaber.

" Kanan what's wrong- "

" Aah well if its not the Jedi and his Padawan such a pleasure to see you " said a Pau'an with sith yellow eyes and a force signature radiating hate and anger. Kanan scowled as he stood protectively in front of Ezra.

" Inquisitor " He spat out as the wannabe sith smirked.

Kanan saw the sith standing on a platform in the middle of the hanger with a bridge leading to him and Ezra. The inquisitors hand was on his dual saber while his eyes were as cold as Hoth's surface. Kanan felt killer intent rolling off the inquisitor in waves as he drew his light saber and stood in a defensive position, hiding Ezra behind him.

" This was a trap wasn't it " stated Kanan, it wasn't a question. The inquisitor smiled but instead of answering he ignited his saber and stood waiting for Kanan to make the first move.

Kanan felt rage swell inside him, this was the piece of sith spit that had been hunting him and his student, the one who made his Padawan use the dark side in desperation. The one who struck fear into his boy every time he was near. As Kanan stood there he swore he'd make that Pau'an pay.

Kanan felt Ezra's presence behind him, his student was wary but determined to help. The boys hand was probably around his lightsaber, ready to jump in if needed.

Kanan closed his eyes and then with a shaky breath he turned toward Ezra.

" Ezra I need you to listen stay out of this fight "

" But Kanan you can't- "

" I'm not loosing anyone else ! " he screamed as he willed the boy through the force to understand " I can't lose you please stay out of it "

His boy lowered his head in resignation and slowly nodded his head, Kanan sighed and turned back toward the inquisitor. A hyper second later Kanan lunged at the inquisitor and blue clashed with red.

xXx

Kanan lunged for the inquisitor leaving defence for a later stage, the inquisitor extended his blade on the other end. Lunge, strike, dodge repeat. As the battle continued Kanan's frustration grew as the inquisitor gained the upper hand.

" So I see you have still taught the boy nothing, he has such potential for the Dark side and sooner or later he will realize it and there's nothing you can do Jedi " said the inquisitor as Kanan scowled and with a roar of blinded rage he charge at his enemy.

xXx

Ezra gazed at the fight a look of total amazement at his Masters and the inquisitors skill. As the battle continued Ezra saw that Kanan was tiring and that the wannabe sith was gaining ground, Ezra clutched his chest as he felt a sense of forbidding and fear rise from the core of his being.

xXx

Kanan was tiring and he could feel it, but he was so close to beating this piece of Sith Shit he could almost taste it. In the back of his mind it barely registered that Ezra was still behind him. Kanan made for a strike leaving himself wide open, the Pau'an flung him across the room using the Force, and he hit against the wall. As Kanan tried to get up the Inquisitor appeared in front of him, the tip of the red saber to close to his neck for comfort.

" Its time to die Jedi but I leave you with a piece of comfort , your Padawan is designed for great things and he will be a fine apprentice of the Dark side so Jedi Master any last words. "

" Ezra will never turn, and that's my comfort " spat out Kanan as he glared defiantly at the Pau'an

" it's a pity but death will be a far better mercy right ? "

Kanan would not dignify that with an answer so he just closed his eyes giving himself to fate. The red glow behind his closed eyelids grew stronger and as he steadied his breathing and entered a meditative state, the only thing on his mind was his crew, his family, his son.

" I'm so sorry Ezra " he said through the force as he waited for the killing strike. In the distance he heard a young voice calling his name, it sounded so desperate. But he ignored it waiting for the killing blow.

The blow that never came.
