Hello! I have been writing this for a little, and have finally gotten around to posting it! Just a heads up, this gets a lot darker then my other stories. There is insanity, gore, and child death later on. If this is something you don't like to read, then read something else. Hope you like it!

Chapter One

Ezra

"Ezra, come on! We have to move quickly!" Kanan shouted.

"Coming!" Ezra said, coming around the corner of the Star Destroyer. A few days ago, Fulcrum had sent a transmission saying that they had discovered where a ten year old girl was being held prisoner on this destroyer. They were certain that the girl was force sensitive. Ezra and Kanan had immediately taken the Phantom to reach on the Star Destroyer,

"Kanan," Ezra said,. "I don't like this."

"What do you mean?" Kanan .asked, pausing so that Ezra could catch up.

"I don't know, something just doesn't feel right. We've been here for thirty minutes, and nobody has tried to stop us. I mean, we aren't even whispering for force sake! Why haven't they attacked?"

"I don't know Ezra. I will admit, this doesn't feel right to me either, but we have to get this girl before the Inquisitors come and turn her to the dark side." Ezra nodded. He would do anything for the rebellion, especially if that included helping someone in need. But this felt wrong. Really wrong.

Kanan

Kanan thought about what his Padawan had said. Now that he thought about it, Ezra had been acting strangely ever since they boarded. Something did feel off, but he knew that they had to keep going for the sake of the girl, and the they failed, that girl would be tortured to the brink of destruction and turned into another Inquisitor. Ezra did make a fair point though. They had only run into a small patrol of storm troopers who had been pretty easy to beat. Kanan had been expecting Inquisitors, and legions of troops. The Empire seemed to not even know that they were there.

Suddenly there was a muffled shout, and he turned to see Ezra fall unconscious with the Seventh Sister standing over him. She grinned evilly at him and ignited her saber.

"You. What did you do to Ezra?" he yelled, advancing towards her.

"Don't worry, he isn't dead. He's of no use to me dead," she said in mock assurance. She charged at Kanan, and the force pushed him back. He jumped back up immediately, and brought his blade down on her shoulder, only to have it blocked. Their clashing blades sparked green and sliced at the walls around, leaving scorching trails. Suddenly she raised her hand, and Kanan fell into unconsciousness.

When he woke,the Inquisitor was gone. And so was Ezra.

Seventh Sister

The Seventh Sister walked into a large chamber at the center of the Star Destroyer, and knelt before a projection of her master, Darth Vader. "I have acquired the boy, my master. He is in a secure cell. I left his master alive as you wished.. May I ask what your plan is with the boy?"

"Very good. Scientists have been working day and night to perfect a technique to change the human brain. We think that they have finally figured it out, but we can't be sure. The boy is to be our test subject," Vader stated evenly.

"So he's going to be a guinea pig?" the Seventh Sister asked, a malicious grin spreading across her face.

"Yes. If the technique works, then he will be our puppet - a slave to the darkness, unable to control his own decisions and thoughts."

"And if it doesn't work?"

"Then we will still have a use for him. His mind will still be out of his control, but it will be out of ours as well. This will slowly drive him insane. He will see everything as life threatening, and destroy everything he comes into contact with including his crew.. Thus, either way, we will benefit from this experiment. "That s a wonderful idea master. Would you like me to take the boy to the labs?"

"Yes. I believe it is time to begin our tests." The projection disappeared, and the Seventh Sister rose and made her way down to the boy,s cell.

Kanan

"Ezra!" he yelled to no answer. He reached out with the force, Ezra where are you? He asked desperately through the force, no response. They must have given him a force suppressant, he realized. Then his comm crackled.

"Kanan! Where are you guys?There are ties closing in!" Hera screamed through the comm.

"Ezra's gone! The Inquisitor took him!" Kanan responded, still trying to find his lost Padawan with the force. He was greeted by shocked silence on the other end of the line.

"You keep looking for Ezra; I'll fight the ties," Hera ordered. "Sabine! Zeb! I need you on guns!"

Kanan ran down all of the halls of the destroyer, through every cell block, taking down fifty troopers, and finding nothing.

Then Hera's voice crackled through the comm.

"Kanan we have to go, there are too many of them. I can't hold them off much longer. We have to go!"

"No! I haven't found him yet; I just need more time!" he yelled back, still running through the ship.

"Kanan I hate to say this, but he's gone." Kanan stopped at these words. Gone. Ezra couldn't be gone. He tried to picture a world without Ezra, and it just wasn't working, But, somehow, it deep down he knew it was true. If the Seventh Sister really got him, then he was never going to find his Padawan. He walked down another hall, and snatched a data pad sitting on a table.

"All right," Kanan said dully. I'll meet you at the rendezvous point in five," he added in a voice void of all emotion.

Hera

She felt tears sliding down her cheeks. She hadn't even noticed herself begin to cry. She flew the Ghost down and picked Kanan up. He didn't say a word to them. She could hear Chopper beeping sadly in the engine room, and Sabine spray painting in her cabin. Zeb had not even left the cabin he and Ezra's shared, and Kanan was silent, deep in a meditative trance. She couldn't believe it. Ezra had been kidnapped. Who knew what the Empire was going to do to him now? She buried her face in her hands and began to sob silently.
