Ezra POV
"Run, run, Ezra get out of here now!" I could hear Kanan yelling, but I couldn't leave him. We had gotten cornered by some bucket heads. Kanan had a gun pointed at his head and they were about to grab me. I looked at Kanan one last time before I felt the shock go through my body. Kanan yelled then I heard the familiar sound of the Ghosts engines and then stormtroopers body hitting the ground. Before I knew it I felt Kanan picking me up, then I blacked out.
Kanan POV
Ezra and I were working on a simple op. The imps figured out we were here and cornered us. I got held at gunpoint and Ezra got electrocuted. Hera found us before they could do any real damage though. The shock knocked Ezra out so I picked him up and met Hera with the Ghost in the out skirts of town.
I took Ezra to the med bay. I thought he was just unconscious from the electrocution, but Hera noticed his leg was bleeding. She rolled his pant leg up and that's when we saw it.
Where Ezra was supposed to have a leg, he had a metal and plastic prosthetic. The electricity had burnt his leg and it was bleeding underneath the prosthetic. Not only did the electricity burn Ezra, it also damaged his prosthetic leg. I knew we wouldn't be able to fix it, so I just put it to the side and planned on getting him another.
Hera got his leg to stop bleeding and put some medicine and stitches on it. Once she was finished she looked at me and said "How did he survive on his own for eight years? How did we not know about this?" I looked at her dead in the eye and said "I don't know, but I'm gonna make sure nothing like this ever happens to him again."
Hera POV
We just found out about Ez's leg. I knew we would have to tell the rest of the crew, but I wanted Ez to be awake when we told them. He was stable now, but we decided to let him sleep. Kanan just had a few bumps and bruises, so we didn't really have anything to do.
Kanan and I went to the cockpit and just started talking. It really pained me to even think about what Ezra had to go through as a kid. I had saw a few of his scars and they were terrible. Kanan knew a little more about his past, but I wasn't sure I wanted to know everything about his past. I put the ship on autopilot just in case I fell asleep, while Kanan and I were talking.
We eventually fell asleep just watching the stars fly by the wind shield.
Ezra POV
I woke up and automatically knew something was different. For one thing I wasn't in my room, another thing I didn't have my prosthetic leg, and finally I was alone. When I sat up I realized I was in the med bay, and the my prosthetic had been damaged.
This is just freaking great! Now the crew knows everything! I was fine and wanted to get out of the med bay, but I couldn't walk! I guess Kanan sensed my panic, because he came running to the med bay.
He came in and said "Ezra, what's wrong!?". I had been attempting to stand at the moment, so I just fell back on the bed. I wanted to scream, to just get away from here. When I opened my eyes Kanan was standing over me.
Kanan POV
Hera and I had dosed off while talking. I was woken up by panic flowing through the Force. When I felt the waves, I automatically knew it was coming from Ezra. I got up and took off running.
When I got to the med bay Ezra fell back on the bed and closed eyes. I walked over and he opened his eyes. He sighed and said "Go ahead yell at me." I replied "Ezra, I'm not gonna yell at you, I understand." He said "I know, I know I should have... wait what?" I chuckled and said "Why would you think I would yell at you?" Ezra said "Well you always wanna know my secrets, and this was a pretty big one." I said "Ok that's true, so why didn't you tell us?" he said "Well I didn't want Zeb to pick on me, Hera would never had let me live do anything she hadn't seen me do it, and people pity me, and I hate pity."
Ezra and I continued our little "chat" until Hera came to the med bay. She told us that Ezra could leave, but he couldn't put any pressure on his stump. We were pretty sure we had a wheelchair or crutches, so Hera and I went to look.
It took a while, but we finally found some crutches for Ezra. We found the wheelchair, but Ezra insisted he was fine and could use the crutches, so we just put in the med bay.
Now it's time to tell the rest of the crew. I'm gonna need some coffee and alcohol by the end of the day.
