Nicki stood next to Kanan and Ezra. They were looking at a hologram that showed Stormtroopers escorting a shipment. Nicki stared at the hologram in disgust. "The Empire has a shipment of proton bombs being delivered from Garel to Earth," Sato informed them. "Hera, you will choose who to take with you to intercept this shipment before it arrives on Earth.". Hera nodded in acknowledgement, "I'll take Kanan, Zeb, Sabine, Rex, and Chopper.". Nicki felt anger rising up inside her as Hera didn't mention her. She held it in with an iron fist. "Dismissed.". They all left, Hera taking those who she listed off. Nicki stayeds where she was, her eyes following Hera. "You okay Nicki?" Ezra asked. She didn't look at him, "I'm fine.". He didn't believe her, she realized. "Don't lie to me. What's wrong?". She hissed, "I should be going with them. It's not fair.". She held an angry gaze at the Ghost as it left. "Maybe Hera wants you to get better." he suggested. Nicki shook her head, "I find that unconvincing.". Then then stormed away from Ezra and outside the beacons.
She kicked sand out at nothing. "I should have been on that mission. It's not fair!" She seethed in rage. She ignited her Lightsaber, her gaze focusing on a nearby rock. "I'm strong enough to fight the Empire, yet she purposely keeps me out of the mission! What does she think of me? Weak? Pathetic?", she snarled, darting at the rock. "I'm none of those! I'll prove her wrong. I'll prove everyone wrong!", she roared as she sliced the rocked mercilessly in several pieces in a matter of seconds. She looked at the rock in satisfaction. "I'll avenge Samuel, and I'll slaughter the Imperials. I'll show them fear.".
