Me - Hey guys! Sorry I did not update sooner. I was busy being with my valentine and my sister had the laptop. Also I've been traveling a lot lately.

Ezra - (Walks in upon hearing me say this) Hey.

Me - Hey. What do you want Ezra?

Ezra - Nothing. (showing the innocent face)

Me - Spill.

Ezra - Fine. W-who was your Valentine?

Me - You really think I'll tell you.

Ezra - (Thinks then grins evilly) You will tell me who your Valentine was.

(Does the mind trick)

Me - I will tell you who my Valentine was. (Playing along)

Ezra - It worked! Yes!

Me - Nope.

Ezra - Huh, whaa? But how?

Me - You can't use the mind trick on me. Now can I please get back to my story?

Ezra - B-b-but...Ugh, fine. (Walks out)

Me - As I was going to say, sorry for not updating. You can guess what's going to happen by the title. If not, well you just have too wait and see. Hope you all like it. Please review!

Kanan's POV

Ezra has been happy ever since he got Myra back. He spends most of his time with her to catch up with each other. I feel happy for him. Its great knowing that he still has someone in his family left.

Other than that, Sabine's shoulder healed a day or two ago, but Hera still thinks that she should lay low.

I had asked Ezra if Myra is force-sensitive, too. He said he didn't know, but didn't want to find out until she was old enough. I guess that seems fair enough. No one would want an eight year old; almost nine; fighting in a battle and most possibly get herself killed.

But, lately I think Ezra is just a bit too over protective. Maybe it's because he doesn't want to lose Myra again. Maybe it's another reason.

"Kanan, I need you to come to the cockpit."

"On my way."

I walked out of my cabin and into the cockpit. I sit down next to Hera and see her holding a holodisc.

"What's going on?" I ask

"Ahsoka needs us to help someone escape from the empire. Her name is Lyra Keyon."

I freeze at the name. "Kanan, do you know her?"

I shake my head. "No...But I knew her mother. She was a great Jedi. Always doing anything to help others, even if it meant risking her own life...Let's go tell the rest."

Hera nods and calls everyone to the cockpit.

Ezra's POV

I watch from the bed as Myra helps Sabine paint her room. Huh, I never knew Myra could be so creative. Guess I learned one new thing today.

"I need everyone to the cockpit now." Hera's voice comes through the com.

Myra and Sabine set their paintbrushes down and we all walk to the cockpit and enter. When I walked in, I see Zeb already there. He must've been in a middle of a nap, cause he looks like he was about fall asleep right there. We all sit down as Hera starts talking.

"Alright, everyone. Ahsoka contacted me and told us to help someone escape from the Empire. Her name is Lyra Keyon."

I freeze as I hear the name. I thought she was dead a long time ago...

Flashback

Lyra and I were running through the grass of Lothal. We laughed and talked and chased after each other. Soon we were going back to where we both hid.

We were about to go our separate ways when I stopped her.

"Hey, Lyra?", I asked.

"Hmm?"

"Can you meet me at noon at my place? I want to give you something."

"Sure, I'll be there."

And with that, we both left to our temporary homes..

I wanted to give Lyra something for being there for me. She lost her parents just like me and we both met at the streets.

I soon had what I wanted to give Lyra ready the next day. I waited for what felt like several hours until I heard Lyra call for me outside.

"Yeah, I'll be down in a sec."

"So, why did you want me to come?",

she questions.

"For this."

I pulled out a Loth-cat from behind me and showed it to her. Lyra stared at the little Loth-cat for what seemed like forever. Surprise, confusion, happiness were gleaming brightly in her eyes.

"Do you like him?", I asked a bit worried.

"I don't like him." I feel myself grow weak. "I LOVE him! Oh, thank you Ezra. But, how? And why?"

"Well, you've been a great friend and helped me out through everything. And it's been a year so I wanted to give you something, more like a pet. Since you said you always wanted one.", I answered. "And all you have to do is earn the little guy's trust."

"Thanks, Ez."

We both looked down to see the Loth-cat running around us.

"How about I name you Joy?", she suggests laughing at how playful it was. I nod in agreement.

For the rest of the day, we played with Joy with our hearts content. Before we even knew it, it was soon dark. We both said our goodbyes and went back to our temporary homes.

The next day I found Lyra's place in fire. I went in to find her but never did. That's when I assumed she was dead. I cried and yelled at myself for not being there for her and getting her out in time.

End of Flashback

"Ezra? Ezra!"

I turn to Kanan. "Huh, what?"

"You blanked out. Do you know her? And before you even think about it you have to tell us everything.", he demands.

I sigh before giving in. "Alright. Lyra...sh-she was my friend a long time ago. I thought she died. The last time I saw her was the night we were at my place. The next day, her house was on fire, making me assume she was dead."

Silence.

"…I knew her mother." Kanan says, breaking the silence. "She was a great Jedi and woman. Always helping others no matter the risk. We'll get her out. I promise."

I look at him and nod. Soon enough, we start to make a plan to get Lyra out.

I just hope it works and that she'll forgive me for not being there for her.

/(Time Skip)/

"Everyone knows the plan, right?", Kanan asks for what is like the twelfth time.

"Of course, Kanan.", I answer for everyone.

One by one, we jump out of the Phantom and knock out the guards. I pickpocket the door and we run in. We run through the halls, knocking the troopers out as we do, until we come to the cell she's in.

Sabine opens it and in there is Lyra sitting a corner with fear, anger, and sadness wild in her eyes. I stride through the door.

"Don't worry. We're here to get you out.", I reassure her.

She softly gasps. "E-Ezra? I-Is that really you?"

"Yeah, its me. Now let's get out if here!"

She nods and together we all run back to the Phantom. But unfortunately, the Inquisitors show up.

"Get Lyra out of here!" Everyone follows Kanan's order. Everyone but me. "Ezra, go with the others. Now!"

I shake my head as I ignite my saber. "No, I'm staying with you. We leave this ship together or we don't at all."

"Aww, how sweet." The seventh sister says. "But, it was all end soon."

They launch themselves at us.

Strike. Block. Block. Shoot. Strike. Shoot. Block. Strike. Strike. Block. Shoot. Block.

We kept on going until Lyra randomly comes in the middle of everything and force pushes the Inquisitors into a wall. It didn't knock them out, but it bought us time.

Since when was Lyra a force user? How long has she known? And why did she never tell me?!

Once all three of us are inside the Phantom, Hera takes off and jumps into hyperspace. Everything is silent. No one speaks. No one makes a sound. At least, until I decide to speak.

"So, your a force-user?" Lyra gives a hesitant nod. "For how long?"

I didn't think she had the force. I mean there is a possibility that someone might not have it even if one of their parents are.

"Yeah, I am. I've known since about a year before we met", Lyra replies.

And then I ask something that I never should have.

"What happened to Joy?"

And once I did, Lyra's face drops.

"Hey, you okay?", I ask regretting what I said. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked that…"

I see a tear streaming down her face. "No...but I'll tell you anyway. They...They k-k-killed him. I wouldn't join them and Joy was trying to protect me, so...so they shot him."

I immediately feel like hugging her. Joy must've been the only one close to her while she was with the Empire.

Sabine then decides to speak. "Um, if you don't mind me asking...Who's Joy?"

I look at Lyra. "Do you want to do the honors?"

She nods. "Joy was a little Loth-cat Ezra gave me as a gift before...before the Empire got me."

Sabine looks down and everything was silent once again until we reached the Ghost.

Lyra was told that she was going to bunk with Sabine for now. She nodded and went straight there. I guess we'll just have to explain everything tomorrow.

It's great to have her back. Even if she might not want to stay, at least I know she's safe.

Me - So what do you think? Please review and tell me. Again sorry for not updating for so long. Until next time. Bye!
