Hey guys! It's a bit of a longer one so I hope you enjoy!

Q/A's and Reactions:

Silver that gleams- Yeah, pretty much! XD

DarkShadows1999- Actually, 'fighter flight' will be happening later. I didn't put it in here because I think Kanan and Hera need to have a little more faith and trust in Zeb for that event to happen. Hopefully not too long until that though! :D

Warrior Angel- Thanks for your support! Enjoy the chapter!

Ezraismybae- I'm glad you like it and I hope you enjoy! :D

Deathgoddesses- Yes, that seems to be the way, doesn't it? XD

Elsa Skywalker (Chapter 8)- Yay! I'm glad it's as good as you were hoping! :D

Elsa Skywalker (Chapter 9)- Yeah! More adventure to be had! :D

Rebeakahhniang- Love your enthusiasm! Enjoy the chapter! :D

Zeb's POV

I looked over my shoulder to see the blue haired boy still behind me. I may have become slightly paranoid after Kanan's reaction. 'Watch him like a hawk,' he said. What does that mean? Was the kid wanted? Was he mischievous? Was he dangerous? He acted like a normal human child to me. We had talked and got to know each other a bit as well. Turns out, Kanan and Hera are his 'temporary' guardians while his parents were off somewhere. Still, there was an itch in the back of my mind saying the statement was only half true.

We had almost gotten everything on the list. "Okay, 5 yogans. Easy," I mumbled to myself, reading through the list. I looked away from the list and picked up the supplies. But something… someone was missing. My eyes widened as I searched frantically around the area. "Kid?!" I called. He couldn't have gotten far! Kanan and Hera would kill me if I lost him! That's when I realised the tan faced boy standing at the entrance of an alley. I ran up to him. "Kid, you freaked me out for a second there," I sighed, relieved. He stared blankly down the alley. "Kid?" I asked, following his gaze.

Two storm troopers were hassling a small merchant selling yogans. I looked back at Ezra who looked up at me with big, electric eyes. "What?" I asked.

He pointed to the troopers. "Stop them?"

I sighed. "Kid, we don't want to get into trouble."

"Please?!" he begged, bottom lip pouting.

I caved in when his eyes sparkled innocently. I groaned. "Fine. Stay here."

I walked down the alley casually and passed by the troopers. Then, I grabbed their heads and slammed them against each other. They collapsed to the ground, one of their helmets rolling off. Ezra ran over, giggling. He picked the helmet up and examined it curiously. Then he put it on his head, which was much too big for him. I turned to the merchant. "Thank you sir," he said, offering a credit. I gave a warm smile. "No thanks necessary."

"There must be some way to repay you. Maybe some yogans?" he offered, gesturing to his bag.

My ears perked up. "On second thought," I grinned.

The creature gave me 6 yogans as I put 5 of them with the supplies. I turned to see Ezra with the helmet still on his head disappearing around the corner. "Ezra!" I called, running after him. I turned out of the alleyway to see Ezra run into a squad of storm troopers. Perfect! I ran up to them.

"Where did you get that helmet?!" one of them barked.

"Let's dispose of this street rat," another said, aiming his gun at the boy.

I pulled out my bo-rifle and jumped in front of Ezra. "You'll have to get through me first!" I growled, pouncing at them. Still startled, the troopers couldn't jump away from my electrified staff or fist. Three down… Four out… Seven on the floor! I panted and looked around at the knocked out storm troopers. I turned to the small boy, who lifted the helmet just enough to see his face. He had an adorable look that said 'Whoops. Sorry.'

I smiled and shook my head. "Kanan and Hera can never know about this," I chuckled.

Ezra did a motion across his lips and giggled. His expression quickly went from joy to fear as cold metal could be felt against the back of my head. "Don't move," a voice from behind said.

I stiffened as panic grew in my chest. There was a clicking sound as the voice said "This is trooper #5467, with two insurgents in sector 9. Requesting back up." I looked at Ezra. His fear turned to something else… anger. He threw the helmet to the side and stood up. "No!" he screamed, holding his hands up towards me. The barrel of the gun was removed from my head and I looked back to see a trooper flying through the air. He hit a nearby building with a crash. My eyes widened as I turned back to Ezra. The boy stared at his hands with a mixture of curiosity and fear. "We need to go!" I panted, picking up my bo-rifle. I ran over to Ezra and scooped him into my arms, but not before he was able to grab the helmet from before.

I ran to the alley and lifted the boy onto my shoulders. Then I grabbed the supplies and ran, Ezra clinging on to my head like a loth-cat. Once we got out of town, I slowed down back to a normal walk. Ezra started laughing. "That was fun! Again!"

I chuckled. "Maybe another time kid." I caught my breath and said "Now I can see why Kanan told me to watch you."

"It's not that I try to get into trouble," Ezra defended.

I sighed. "I know, you mean well."

It was silent for a moment as we walked peacefully through the grassy plains.

"So… can I keep this?" he asked, gesturing to the helmet.

I grinned. "Sure, why not. But… you can't tell Kanan or Hera. Deal?"

He put the helmet on which was still far too big for him and saluted. "Sir yes sir!"

I smiled and chucked him the spare yogan. "Now, plan to tell me how you did that back there?"

Kanan's POV

I sat on the ramp of the Ghost, tapping my foot against the metal.

"Careful, or you'll drill a hole into my ship," Hera snickered, sitting next to me.

"They should be back by now," I said impatiently.

"You're worried about Ezra, aren't you?" Hera inquired.

"Yes! We let him go with a creature we've never met before on a supply run!" I barked, turning away.

Hera placed her hand gently on my shoulder and forced me to look into her crystal green eyes. "Kanan, Zeb is trustworthy. I got in touch with my contact, and from what I've heard he could be a great asset to our crew."

I sighed, knowing she was right. "But what if Ezra gets kidnapped? What if he gets lost? What if he gets injured? What if-"

"What if you're just overthinking it a little?" she interrupted, a comforting smile on her face.

I sighed. "You're right," I mumbled, turning my attention back to the horizon. We sat there for a few minutes, until I saw something in the distance. I stood up as it got increasingly closer, Hera not far behind. I was relieved when I saw Ezra sitting on the broad shoulders of Zeb. The boy waved joyfully and I realised the storm trooper helmet in his other hand. Zeb let Ezra down as he put the too-big-helmet on and ran over. "Look! Look!" he pranced happily. "I got a bucket! Pew pew!" I crossed my arms, slightly amused by the playful child. "How did you get that?" I asked, bending down.

"Sorry sir," he said, trying to impersonate a storm trooper. "That's 'confidesal infomaton'."

Hera giggled. "Do you mean 'confidential information'?"

He saluted. "Sir yes sir!"

I shook my head a laughed. Then I turned to Zeb. He place the supplies on the ground. "You ordered?" he bowed.

"Thank you Zeb," Hera smiled. "Ezra, come help me get these inside."

Hera picked up one of the boxes and Ezra dragged the other up the ramp.

"He's special that one," Zeb smiled, taking a step closer.

"I know..." I replied quietly. Snapping out of a small trance, I said "Thank you, for looking after him."

The Lasat nodded. It was silent for a moment before I sighed. "I don't know what you two did, and to be honest, I don't want to know… but… you should know that I trust you."

His ears perked up. "Welcome to the crew," I smiled.

He bowed and walked up the ramp. "Now, I was told something about… a jedi?"

I rolled my eyes. "Ezra," I called.

We walked into the cargo bay and Ezra gave me the 'Whoops. Sorry,' look. I sighed, but let out a small chuckle. "I'll talk to you later, but for now," I said turning to Zeb. "Guess I'd better fill you in." Ezra giggled and winked at Zeb, who grinned from ear to ear. Hera raised a brow. "Do I even want to know?"

"No," Zeb said.

"Probably not," I replied.

"Know what?" Ezra shrugged innocently, placing the helmet over his head. I smiled. Guess there's another member of the family now. And Zeb… well… I think he'll fit right in.

Hey guys! How was the chapter? Are you glad Zeb's now part of the crew? Do you have any suggestions for the next chapter? Will everyone start nagging me for Sabine to join the crew?! Probably. XD I'll warn you guys now though, Sabine won't be joining for a while.

On other news, sorry for the delay in updates. There was a small glitch in the website where the reviews would kind of… disappear. I wanted to wait until it was fixed and now… it's fixed! Yay! :D Also, I'll be going on a 3 day holiday and won't be updating anytime for the next 4 days. But, I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Have a great day and may the force be with you, always!
