Living with Jedi
* This was a request by silverwolf I seriously couldn't pass. Then again who could possibly pass up an opportunity to write a bounty hunter story with Cad Bane, Bossk, & Boba VS. The Ghost crew and Rex! Plus Bossk and Ezra! How is Kanan, Sabine, and Ketsu going to react to Ezra's old friend? I'm honored to be writing this.
A Jedi Bounty
Sabine:
"How in the world did I go from being a Bounty Hunter to being the Bounty?" I ask.
"We joined the Rebellion." Ketsu answered.
"Still they sent Four bounty hunters after us? And not just any bounty hunters. No, they send Boba Fet, Cade Bane, Ebo, and Bossk!" I state.
"That doesn't sound like a group of people I want to be friends with. I'm glad I can't see. I wouldn't want to see this." Kanan says.
"They sent Who after us?" Ezra ask over the com. "If you said who I think you said I think we might be ok. One of them owes me!"
"What do you mean by one of them owes you? These bounty hunters don't normally owe anyone but bar owners anything." Ketsu ask.
"Let's just say he's an old friend of mine." He responds.
"Kid I understand Sabine knowing these guys with her past and all but how in the Force are Friends with a bounty hunter?" Zeb ask.
"I want to know that to. Specter 6 what did you do that you crossed paths with one of these guys?" Kanan adds.
"I'll tell you later." The kid response.
We shot back at the bounty hunters. Boba and Rex are wrestling with each other.
"This is exactly why I don't trust clones." Kanan says sensing what's going on.
"I'm not one of them. I might look like one but I'm not. Don't mistake me for one Jedi." Boba corrects him.
"We share the same DNA little bro. This is Exactly what your Dad would look like now and you will eventually look like. You're nothing more than his unaltered clone." Rex says.
"Not my fault I'm dear old daddy's favorite. He could have cared less about the rest of you. You were just pawns for the Republic army. I was more than that." Boba says.
"I bet that kid I worked with on Lothal could outsmart all of y'all!" Bossk says as Zeb and him fight.
Ketsu and I try and negotiate. "Come on guys. We were bounty hunters too, can't we all just let bygones be bygones & pretend nothing ever happened."
"No, and stop talking about that street rat that coned you Bossk. You might have gotten twice the bounty because of him but we all know that kid deserves that money. You owe him." Boba says.
"He's got that right. Bossk you still owe me your life. I saved your butt." Ezra says from an air duck above.
"Nice of you to join us kid." Zeb says. The rest of us all turn to look at the Padawan as he drops down in the middle of the battle.
"Ezra Bridger? What in the world are you doing here?" Bossk ask. He puts down his weapon and hugs the kid. The rest of us all stop and stare. Even Kanan turns his head in their direction with a look of confusion.
"This is my family your hunting now. I'm with them. You hurt one… well you've worked with me. You know exactly what I'm capable of. " Ezra informs him.
"Relax kid We're only after the Jedi and his Padawan. It's not like I'm after… " Bossk trails off. Then something clicks to him. "Your the Padawan aren't you?"
"Bingo, and I'll consider all debts paid of if you could just over look this whole thing." Ezra tells him.
"No. We can't just walk away from this one. The bounty is too high. Bossk you wouldn't…" Boba starts but Bossk interrupt him.
"I owe the kid my life. No bounty is high enough to pay that debt. Besides I'm the only one of us that knows what this kid's capable of. I'd rather have him on my side then go against him. This kid can escape from any situation no matter how hopeless it seems. He caught three bounties of his own when an imperial agent had a bounty on my head. Sure I took credit for all three but still he cleared my name. The Jedi's luckily I wouldn't want to miss with this kid. I'd rather have him as my apprentice." Bossk explains. "You can go ahead if you want but don't say I didn't worn you. I'm out!"
"Fine, then we'll just split the bounty three ways." Bane says.
"I'd listen to Bossk if I were you." Kanan says.
"What's left of that bounty again?" Boba ask Bossk.
"Nothing, the kid basically disintegrated him to save our lives. It was kinda unavailable." Bossk responded.
"My kinda of kid!" Bane says.
"Mine too. I'm out. Bossk is right this one might be high but it's not worth it." Boba says.
"So Embo what do you say you and me?" Bane ask. Embo just puts down his weapons.
"There's no way this kid is that much of a threat." Bane says.
"Have you ever dealt with a Jedi master after messing with their Padawan?" Kanan threatens.
"Actually I have. On second thought he tore apart my ship just to get to Miss Tano. I'm not putting up with that again." Bane answers.
Ketsu & I are both astonished. "With a bounty as high as our's is, there is no way I would have let that go. At least not that easily." Ketsu says.
"Ezra, how did a street rat catch the bounties? What did you do on the streets?" I ask.
Kanan:
"Hera, I think Ezra and Sabine have more in common than we thought. Did you know that the kid worked with a bounty hunter?" I say once we were all back on the ghost.
"He what? Ezra is this true? Why didn't you tell us?" She ask.
"Not much to tell. I did what I had to. That's just the way I survived before I met y'all. Come to think about it. That was the first time I saw the Ghost. Who would have guessed back then that I would ever call it home."
"How long before you met us did this little gamble happen?" Sabine ask.
"About a week. I thought I lost more than I gained in that deal." He responded.
"Glad you made it. It saved our lives back there." I say. I'm so getting the rest of this story out of him. A kid like him shouldn't have ever cross paths with a bounty hunter. Then again what little I know about Ezra's path none of it is something someone so young should have ever been though.
"I guess that bet did pay off after all. Otherwise none of us would be here now."
* That was fun. Feel free to send me more request like this. I hope that is what was wanted. Ik that's what I want to see. Please let me know what y'all think. As always…
May the force be with you always
