The next day, as they were walking, a familiar feeling hit Ezra and he stopped dead in his tracks. Suddenly he knew that the suspicions he had had ever since they had found the footprints was right. The one they were tracking was none other than the Inquisitor! But how was that possible? Kanan had killed him… didn't he? His companions seemed to notice finally that he had stopped and they turned towards him. Anakin had been about to scold him for doing so, but the look on Ezra's face stopped him.
"What is it Ezra?" Ahsoka asked. Ezra tried to brush it off and said, "It's nothing, just another feeling I had." He started walking, trying to walk around them, but Anakin put his arm out and asked, "What kind of a feeling?" Ezra gulped, that semi familiar presence about Anakin causing him to feel uncomfortable. He was trying to think of an answer, when an urgent feeling filled him and he shouted, "Get down!" He pulled Anakin down with him, seconds before a familiar red blade filled the area their heads had been.
Anakin, Ahsoka and Yoda were quick to recover and jumped up, igniting their blades as they did so. The Inquisitor stepped into their sights and said, "Ah Jedi, I thought I felt a familiar horrific presence. And what's this? Master Yoda, to what do I owe this honor?" "A disturbance we felt. Who are you?" Yoda replied. "That is rather a long story, one for which I don't have time. Suffice to say you will die." With that, he Force pushed, sending Anakin and Ahsoka flying over Ezra and Yoda sliding back, though he kept his feet.
Ezra glanced quickly at Anakin and Ahsoka. Ahsoka was already hopping to her feet, but it appeared that Anakin was once again out. For someone that both Ahsoka and Kanan talked so highly about, he sure spent a lot of time unconscious. He heard the clash of lightsabers and his attention was drawn back to Yoda and the Inquisitor. For such a small, normally slow moving Jedi he sure could move! He was almost a blur as he flipped here and there, coming close to the Inquisitor many times.
The Inquisitor had lost some of his cockiness and his fighting style was a little more sloppy then when he had previously fought Ezra and Kanan as he hurried to keep up with the green Jedi. As Yoda did a black flip away, Ahsoka attempted to strike him from behind, but the Inquisitor turned around quickly, easily blocking it. His fast and strong strikes were becoming too much for Ahsoka, and when Yoda tried to help he was caught off guard by another Force push, that left him stunned at the base of a nearby tree.
Anakin was starting to stir, but he wasn't coming around fast enough to help Ahsoka. Ezra swallowed down the fear caused by the memory of his last encounter, the one that had left the scars on his face. Taking aim with his lightsaber, he fired of a shot. It didn't hit the Inquisitor, for easily deflected it, but it did remove his attention from Ahsoka, who moved off quickly, panting from the exertion while trying to think of a way to help Ezra.
The crazy kid had no idea what he was getting into! He couldn't take on this guy with just his gun. The words that came from the Inquisitor stunned her and her Master, though not Yoda so much. "Ah the Padawan. Where's you Master young one? I'm sorry to see you survived our last encounter." Ezra stood and simply said, "Sorry to disappoint you." He ignited his blade, filling Anakin with a little envy when he realized the kid's blaster was built into his lightsaber, while also raising the question of why would a Master let his pupil build one like that.
Ezra held his lightsaber at the ready, determined not to charge blindly into this. "How did you get here Inquisitor?" he asked. The Inquisitor looked puzzled and Ezra realized that he had ended up here just as Ezra had, with no idea how he had managed to do so. But of course the villain would not admit to this, instead he silently raised his blade and charged the young Jedi. The other Jedi watched helplessly as the young one took on the one that obviously had more experience.
But Ezra was coming to find the Inquisitor used the same sort of tricks that he always did, he was predictable. Or maybe after spending some time fighting other Force users had made him realize how each had their own style that once you learned it was easy to predict their next move. He knew that meant he had to mix it up a bit to throw the Inquisitor off balance. Looking around when he could, he saw a tree that could do the very thing he needed.
With a push, he force the Inquisitor off of him and ran for it. The Inquisitor gave chase gracefully, just like Ezra hoped he would. Reaching the tree he didn't stop, but half ran up it before using it flip him over the Inquisitor. Surprised filled the Inquisitors face as Ezra jumped over him and before he could adjust himself, Ezra delivered the fatal blow. Dropping his lightsaber, which shut off as it hit the ground, the Inquisitor chuckled before saying, "Well done Padawan."
With that he too fell to the ground, dead before he even reached it. Ezra disengaged his lightsaber and hurried to check on the others. Once everyone assured the others that they were fine, Anakin and Ahsoka started questioning Ezra. "I thought you said you have never been around Jedi?!" Anakin exclaimed. "No what I said was I have never seen Jedi robes." Ezra replied. "How the heck could we not tell you were a Jedi?" Ahsoka asked.
"That one I'm not sure on. I think the Force brought me here because of the Inquisitor and masked my ability in order for me not to be detained at the Temple." "What do you mean brought you here?" Anakin asked. Ezra inwardly groaned, realizing he had just given away that he wasn't from this time. "I'm not from this time okay. I'm from the future." Ahsoka raised an eyebrow and said, "You're a Jedi from the future and you have never seen Jedi robes?" Ezra shrugged and said, "They don't really wear them anymore."
Anakin mumbled something that sounded like lucky before Yoda interrupted. "Enough questions asked we have. Disrupt Ezra's past, want we not to do." Ezra almost made a comment like he would rather the past was altered in some ways, but then he thought about how Kanan had once told him he had never known his parents and he decided that he was okay with some changes. "So how are you going to get back?"Ahsoka asked him.
Ezra sighed and said, "I'm not sure, I'm not even sure how I got here in the first place. I just entered a cave near where we were staying and the next thing I saw you fighting that Cyborg." "Back through that cave, go you must." Yoda said, pointing his stick at Ezra, "On our way back to the Temple, return you we will." "Are you sure it will work?" Ezra asked. "One way to find out there is."
