I'm back! My thanks to all who followed/favorited/reviewed! And now chapter two, with Ezra and Rex meeting!
Enjoy!
Ezra excitedly bounced across to Ahsoka's ship. Kanan had gone over earlier, telling Ezra to come once he was done helping Sabine.
He entered the ship and looked around. The Remembrance was a different, older ship than the Ghost, so Ezra wasn't entirely sure of his way around. Wandering around a bit, he found the mess and walked in.
Someone was already inside, a figure in whiteish armor. Ezra almost had a heart attack, his hand darting to where his lightsaber was clipped to his belt, before realizing the armor wasn't storm trooper armor. It was different, more fitted, older, and decorated with faded, blue paint.
Figuring that the man wasn't an Imperial, that he must be a rebel (he was on Ahsoka's ship), Ezra relaxed. The man turned around and caught sight of him.
"Hey, kid. You must be…Ezra?"
Ezra's eyes widened. "How did you know?"
"The commander mentioned you, and your master said you'd be coming over."
"Oh."
"Hey, you're the one who sent that radio message, right?"
"Uh, yeah." The man smiled a bit.
"Good job, kid. A lot of people heard you."
Ezra blushed, ducked his head slightly, and rubbed the back of his neck. "Thanks, uh…"
"Rex."
Ezra nodded. He glanced at the armor again, noting the obvious age of the cracked plastoid.
"Were you in the Clone Wars?" He blurted out, curiosity getting the better of him. Being born right at the end of the Clone Wars, Ezra had heard a lot about the wars from his parents. At Rex's surprised look, Ezra quickly tried to backtrack.
"Uh, I-I mean-" His stammering stopped at Rex's rough bark of laughter. Still chuckling, he answered the flustered teen.
"Yes, I was in the Clone Wars. I was on the front lines, kid."
Before Ezra could say anything to that, the door on the far side of the mess opened, revealing Kanan. Ezra was surprised at the spike of emotions from his master, easily felt through their bond. There was some fear, some anger, wariness and betrayal. And they were all aimed at -Rex?
"Ezra. Glad you could make it." The joking tone told him his master was just teasing him, not angry. "C'mon, Ahsoka's back here." Ezra followed him out, pausing only long enough to call out: "Nice to meet you Rex!"
"You too kid."
"What was that?"
"What was what?"
"You. When you walked in and saw Rex." Kanan sighed, but before he could answer, they reached the training room where Ahsoka was.
"I'll tell you later."
Yeah, it's kinda short. Sorry. The next one will be longer. I hope you enjoyed! Please review! (or not you know, whatever) Next chapter up soon!
