"Hera, he's not safe here. We will only put him in more danger." Kannan spoke sofly outside of the medbay door.

"Kannan, this could destroy him. We are the closest thing he has to a family." she tried to argue, but the once jedi Padawon had made his mind. He shook his head.

"Set course for Lothal Hera," he ordered, his tone hard, leaving no room for argument. She left without a word.


I looked out to Capital city. My leg was still hurting but not as much as my heart. I had let the in. trusted them, I should have known better. The first rule on the street was to not trust anyone. I woke finding enough credits to keep me fed for a few days.

I had pressed the button to the only person I could trust. She was my stone for the first year I was on the street. She offered me a job on her ship yet I turned her down wanting to hang on to the hope that my parents would come back. I should have said no. she called me stubern. I should have called her a long time ago. I'm such a fool.

"Ezra," Six asked as she entered the tower.

"I need a new name Six. Ezra Bridger can no longer be alive." I said from my bed not looking up.

"And what name do you want to have?" she questioned. I looked out towards her. She was wearing armor on her legs and her right arm.

"I am a shadow of what I once was, I was naïve, trustful, happy," I paused and took a breath. "Now I know what is going on in this universe, I trust you alone, and I am broken. I am Shadow." I finished.

"I have a Job Shadow. Will you take a position on my ship fighting against, and at times for the Empire?" she asked.

"Yes," I answered, she walked up to me, and extended a hand.

"Then welcome to Noble Team." She spoke. I took her hand and felt the bond I had with Kannan shatter. I felt the weak bond I had with Six strengthen.

"Leave no man behind." We spoke as one, and with that I knew I would never return to Lothal.
