Imprisoned

Occupied Earth Kingdom

Since Sokka left to go scrounge for food. I have been studying Kreia's Holocron and understanding certain force concepts as I delve deeper. The object has seemingly changed colors from a Sithly crimson to a more purple or magenta coloration. The Holocron is different from when I first encountered it on Malachor V. Instead of relying on my Darker emotions it requires only my will to open it. This is a change that will help me through to the future. As I delve further into the Holocron Sokka has returned with food. While I continue with my discovery I feel a slight shake then I feel as though we were hit by something harder. When I open my eyes I find myself in a starship that I don't recognize as I walk through the ship I hear distant conversations as I look around then I see someone with a T-shaped visor helmet a Mandalorian, He responds," You must seek the Ebon Hawk. In a place buried beneath Sand, Spirits, and Books You will find it with a hidden stash, I bequeath to you alone if you are worthy." As the vision of the ship leaves my eyes. I see a series of events flash before my eyes so quickly that I cannot keep track of all the individuals through it that I see only a handful who I recognize Sabine, Aang, Sokka, Katara, Suki, and Prince Angry, But I also see people who I don't know a Dark Jedi, a rusty droid, an old Astromech, and another human who has two suns hovering over him. The vision ends with a series of phrases and sayings but one stands out from all the rest," The future is always in motion!"

As my body and eyes shoot up from the visions I see only Sokka and a woman talking about me as I stand up and look at them.

I ask them," What is going on?"

Sokka turns to rebuttal me slightly, jumping up," What about you one moment you are perfectly fine staring at a purple pyramid. Then you sit there unresponsive without any answer! Thus What in Tui and La were you doing?"

Sokka's question stuns me with his anger showing I answer calmly," I had a vision that I was drawn into without warning. It has left more questions than answers, Wait a minute Sokka, how long was I out for?"

Sokka looks at me confused and dumbstruck, states," Twelve Hours, We carried you into a remote mining town and this nice lady offered us her barn to stay in for the night."

I scan the room and ask," Where is Katara and Aang?"

Sokka has calmed down to talk calmly with me," Aang is taking care of Appa, and Katara is with Haru, a boy we met after you passed out with me, Aang and Haru having to carry you and you're no lightweight."

I look at Sokka with a joking grin and sarcastically respond," Well I'm sorry you had to carry my rear here. I'm sorry I got dragged into a vision against my will as I stated before." Sokka is about to respond when Katara and a boy who must be Haru enter the house. They are hiding something they did while they were gone and I will find it out shortly.

While the woman leaves us I look at Sokka with a questioning gaze. " Before we left I grabbed your stuff Ezra but I'm keeping the glowy purple pyramid!"

I glare at him giving an icy look but it shifts into a thankful grin." Thank you Sokka for helping me and getting us to a safe place, Wait did you say purple?" Sokka looks at Ezra with a raised eyebrow.

" Yeah it changed colors while you were looking at it, how did you not notice it?" I look at the ground then look back at Sokka, with a look of disbelief taking over his face.

" I thought I was seeing things or it was a mirage!" As Sokka and I look outside it has grown late, I look to Sokka and suggest." How about we continue this discussion tomorrow." Sokka nods his head in agreement and we both walk off to the barn to go to sleep for the night.

When we arrived Katara is speaking of how Haru had saved an old man from a mine collapse to Aang.

As I listen to the story a feeling of dread washes over me. I speak to her," Katara that was a stupid thing for you to do. Haru is most likely in danger for that!" The three of them look at me with total confusion gripping their appearance.

Aang asks first", Why?" "Simple Aang, how high is the Fire nation bounty on Earth Benders because if the Fire Nation is taking them it is very much like what happens to Jedi survivors," I respond. Katara looks at me with confusion still gripping her.

She asks," What do you mean?" "Every day people would sell out Jedi to the Empire for an easy Credit to survive because Kanan told me of how people hung survivors out. The Emperor swore to the galaxy,' That the Jedi will be hunted down and defeated!" They all knew what I meant in that moment.

" There is always room on Appa for one more which we can offer him tomorrow," Aang responded optimistically. In my opinion, it was sorely needed after the horror story I just told them. We all went to sleep peacefully in the barn.

When we awoke Katara had walked out to gather water. While Aang and Sokka packed things up I could feel that Haru was taken in the middle of the night. Suddenly as I focus I hear the shattering of a pot as Katara runs in to inform us," The Fire Nation took Haru at midnight. The old man ratted him out, I forced him into Earthbending."

I responded," I know Katara I could feel it when I first woke up. I don't have any way to save him."

As I ponder Katara exclaims," But I do as they will arrest me for Earthbending and take me straight to Haru!" I raise an eyebrow while the two boys look on with looks of confusion and fear. Katara explains her plan to the boys and while I stay with Appa. They say Katara's plan has gone off without a hitch.

While we tail the prison barge Aang begins to worry which Sokka assuages his fears. I begin to create a plan for a massive breakout of the Fire Nation prison seeing that we will have to save all of them. When reaching the prison I realize something it also doubles as a shipyard for the Fire Nation which means we can create a way for the prisoners to escape. While we circled the prison as a vulture signaling the prison's demise. We land in the dead of night and meet up with Katara however she is alone.

I question her," Where is Haru?"

Her reply is slightly disheartening, " He isn't coming, they have given up all hope. I tried to give them faith and hope but they did not have the will."

I smile at her and reassure her," Firstly, do or do not, there is no try. We will show them there is still hope to fight!"

Sokka begging for an answer asks," How?"

"With Earth!" Aang speaking up proclaims," this platform is powered by coal and thus Earth."

I think of an idea to pin the guards down Sokka exclaims," I have a plan Katara and I will lead the riot, Aang can get the coal, and Ezra could you handle our escape plan?"

" Sure great minds think alike," I reply as we go our separate ways I will have to fight a bunch of half-asleep guards.

While one of the officers attempts to wake up the troops I mutter to myself, " Well time for a good distraction." While I smirkingly toss a pair of thermal detonators into the barracks. While they attempt to figure out what's beeping they don't find it until an explosion crippled them then as though a shadow I enter the wreckage and with accuracy greater than any stormtrooper I kill the remaining troops. I am about to regroup with the others when I hear a silent whistling of a crystal and follow the sound until I reach what appears to be an officer's quarters and find the crystal. I immediately run out of the quarters to regroup with the rest of them and to assist in the breakout of the Earthbenders. Upon seeing Sokka and Katara surrounded. While the guards are off there I takedown the guards on the other side of the gates. Then using the force to empower my leap to the top of the gate down to the main platform I land behind the warden and his troops. The guards see me and launch a mass flaming ball at me. I quickly create a force shield that protects me from the fire. Which as the fire dissipates I say loud enough for them to hear, " My turn!" I draw my DL-44 and put a bolt quickly in three of the guards. The Earthbenders look to the coal and fight with it; they have regained their hope for victory. We all push to the ships and get away free of the Fire Nation.

Katara speaks to Haru and Tyro about how they are willing to fight.

I remark," Without Hope we have nothing!"

They look at me with a look of confusion and Tyro asks," Who are you and how did you do that?"

" I am Ezra Bridger Jedi Knight and I am here to help him." They look to where I am pointing to Aang on Appa.

Haru finally asked a question like a Statement," He is him, isn't he the Avatar? "

" Yes, he is."

Katara replies and states," we are heading for the North. I wish you could come with us but your place is with your family." As Katara puts her hand to her neck she stands there shocked by something, shouts," My mother's necklace it's gone, it must be back in the prison, We need to go back for it!"

I quickly responded to Katara," We can't afford to go back. The area will be swarmed with Fire Nation warships and it will be impossible to get in and get out with the damage we did today. I am sorry but we can not do it." She looks at me heartbroken with the loss of it.

" So long as you honor what the necklace symbolizes it will never be gone." Katara nods for us to leave the vessel and she wishes Tyro and Haru good luck. As Appa takes flight we leave. I look down to the three crystals that will make my new lightsaber and the materials for it.
