Myra's POV

We're finally here.

We're finally going to get my brother back. Get Ezra back.

As soon as we attack, I'm going to make the Empire pay for what they did. To Ezra. To me. To every single soul they destroyed.

Okay, I know this is unlike me. But, when you live in a cell for eight years and see what the Empire does to others and to you, you would feel the same way I am now.

And they took my brother. My only remaining family left. I know that mom and dad are dead. Whenever I mention them, everyone looks away. Especially, Ezra.

"Everyone ready?" Asks Kanan, breaking my thoughts.

We all either nod or say yes.

The ramp opens. One by one, we jumped out and hide in the shadows. Zeb quietly sneaks up to the troopers and knocks them out.

Kanan turns to Lyra. "Can you unlock the door?"

Lyra nods. "Of course."

She takes something out and starts unlocking the door. As soon as it was open, we walk inside and try to stay out of sight.

"This way."

We follow Sabine down the corridors. Unfortunately, some troopers saw us.

"Hey, you! Stop!"

I stun the troopers, which only caused more to arrive.

"Change of plans!" Kanan yells. "Myra, Sabine, and Lyra. You go get Ezra. Zeb, Leo, Ahsoka and I will meet up with you soon."

The three of us nod and run down the corridors, stunning each and every trooper we come across.

I sigh. So much for going according to plan.

Ezra's POV (1 hour before the attack)

Pain.

That's all I felt. That's all I could feel.

The fifth brother left about an hour ago and it still feels as if the saber was cutting my burnt skin.

The door opens and this time, it was only the seventh sister. She walks over to me and smirks.

"Do you like getting tortured?" She says. "Because it seems so."

I did my best to glare at her, which only caused the pain to grow. "I think you know my answer. I will never tell you anything! Much less, join you!"

"Very well."

But it wasn't the seventh sister who said that. Immediately I hear the breathing of the very one who brought me here.

Vader.

"If you will not join willingly…" he says, walking in. "Then we will have to force you."

Immediately, I felt a surging pain inside my head. My mind. As if a string connecting to something important was being pulled apart.

He's trying to break my bond with Kanan.

I won't let him do that. I won't allow it. If he wants to break my bond with Kanan, then he has to break me first.

I use all of my remaining strength to stop him from doing so. He's pulls harder on the bond, causing more pain to be inflicted on me. But, I ignored it and use more of my strength to place it back. (I don't know how you really break a bond. So go with it please)

After a minute or two, he stopped. I gasp in pain and try to even my breathing.

"You are stronger than you seem to be. Stronger in the force than anyone who has come across me." He says in his mechanical voice. "But, you will not last long. You will fall to the dark side soon enough. But in the meantime…"

He looks at the seventh sister, who nods and leaves the cell immediately. "Let us see if we can get the info out of you."

He takes out his lightsaber…and strikes. This time, it was longer than the last two combined.

He gave me visions of the ones I care about dying and me not being able to do anything, but watch. Visions of Myra with a lightsaber wound where her heart is. Same to the others, but worse. Visions of my parents saying it was my fault they died. It got worse after each and every single one. It hurt more than the physical pain.

I was close to crying, but I held my place. No matter how much pain was inflicted on me, I didn't tell him.

As I said before, I couldn't. I would've hurt my crew. My family. I would've betrayed them if I did. And I couldn't do that. I would do anything to keep them safe. Even if it means giving my life for them.

After who knows how long, he stops. But, he doesn't says anything. He only puts his lightsaber away and walks out of the cell. Okaaay.

As I look at myself, I see that the pool of blood around me has grown larger. I know I'm losing more blood by the second, but…it was worth it.

It was worth it because…I didn't do what they wanted. The Rebellion and my family would be safe. And that's all I ever want.

It was at that moment, I heard shouting. A minute after that, shooting.

Did they actually come for me? I thought I told them not to come! Then again, Lyra and the others rarely listen to me.

The shouting and shooting came closer and closer to my cell. But, my vision was getting darker due to the lack of blood.

Soon enough, I lost my consciousness, leaving me in a endless, void of darkness…

Sabine's POV

Okay, so I guess I might've made a wrong turn.

Instead of turning right, I turned left. Which allowed a bunch of stormtroopers to catch up to us.

I stun some troopers as I yell to the girls, "Go! I'll cover for you! Go get Ezra!"

The two nod and run down the corridors. I shoot down more troopers, running into the opposite direction of Ezra's cell.

As I run, more troopers have gathered behind me. I have to give Myra and Lyra time if we want to get Ezra out of here.

I run back to where Kanan and the others were, who are, surprisingly, still there. They're surrounded by twice as many troopers that are behind me. I run next to Kanan.

He glances at me. "Sabine?! Why aren't you with the girls?!"

I shoot down a trooper. "Made a wrong turn! Troopers caught up to us! Told them to get Ezra as I deal with the troopers! And here I am!"

He nods and continues to shoot down the stormtroopers.

I just hope the girls are coming back with Ezra now.

Lyra's POV

Run.

That's all we could do. Every moment we waste, is a moment we might lose Ezra. A moment that one of us might not get out of here. A moment where we all might not get out of here alive.

We run down the corridors, troopers running behind us, catching up by the minute.

"We have to get them off our trail!" I yell to Myra.

Myra stops and looks around. She looks up. "Put me on your shoulders."

Realizing where she's going to, I did what she said. She opens the vent above and tries to climb in has quick as she can. Voices got louder down the corridors as the stormtroopers got closer and closer.

"Myra! Hurry!"

She finally climbs inside and starts to crawl down the vents. I pull myself in and close the vent as soon as they came.

We stayed still until the footsteps were no more. I opened the vent and looked around.

I sigh. "They're gone. Come on. Let's get Ezra and get out of here."

She nods and we jump out, running to where Ezra is being kept. No troopers saw us so far. When they were close, we always hid. Besides, they're running in the direction of where the others are. We better hurry if we're going to get out of here alive.

We run down the corridors until we finally made it to Ezra's cell. Myra opens the door, but….what we saw….wasn't something very pleasant.

There on the metal floor…..was Ezra….covered in his own blood. Everywhere around him was fresh and dried blood. Cuts, bruises, burns and many more injuries on him. His skin is pale and he almost looked dead. If it weren't for the slight movement of him breathing, we would've thought he was dead.

Anger welled up in me. How could they do this to him?! He's only 15! He's still a kid! What is wrong with them! Torturing someone until they look like they're dead?! What kind of sick people are they?!

I walk up to Ezra and pick him up. Oh…my…god. He's as light as a feather! Didn't they give him any food?! Oh what am I saying? It's the Empire we're talking about! Of course they didn't!

I turn to Myra. "Come on."

We run down the corridors and back to where the fight is. When we got there, we see everyone cornered, trying to fight as many stormtroopers as they can.

I set Ezra by a wall. "Stay here and watch Ezra."

Myra nods and takes out her blaster. I run to the troopers, whipping out my lightsaber.

"Hey bucket heads! Over here!"

They turn to me and starts shooting. As I block and destroy blasters, Kanan and the others knock them out.

I sigh in relief when they were all knocked out. I pick up Ezra. "Come on! We have to get out of here!"

We run to the docking bay. But, someone else had different plans. There, in front of our only way out, was Vader.

Kanan turns to me. "Lyra, get Ezra aboard the ship. Same with everyone else. Go, now!"

I start to run to our ship. So did everyone else. Kanan and Vader start to fight.

Their sabers clashing against one another. Red and blue creating purple and green. Blocking one another's attack, dodging, striking. The attacks was endless and the fight seemed to never end.

But, the fight had to end one day.

Vader strikes at Kanan's arm before using the force to push him into the ship. His head severely banged against the hard metal wall, thus knocking him out.

"KANAN!"

Next thing I know, the same was done to me. And I wasn't even close to the ship.

I went flying, my body eventually colliding to the metal wall, far away from our ship. Pain shot through me and a loud crack was heard. Ezra was in my arms, but still unconscious. My vision was blurry, but I was still able to tell what was happening.

I see a blurry Leo shoot at Vader, only for him to pushed back next to me, knocked unconscious.

I hear everyone shouting our names, Myra the most. My vision gets darker by the second and soon…I wasn't able to see at all.

The last thing I heard was Myra.

Myra's POV

No…

No, not again. I can't lose anyone else. I can't lose Ezra. Or Lyra. Not even Leo. I can't lose them like everyone else that cared for me.

Not like my parents. Not like the guy who cared for while I was in that cell even though I never knew who he was. Not like the guy who helped me through training. Not like all those people who sacrificed themselves to save me…

Vader slowly walks up to an unconscious Leo and Ezra, and a soon to be unconscious Lyra. His saber ignited and ready to strike.

I can't lose anyone else. I-I just can't. I can't let anyone else sacrifice themselves. I can't hold the guilt that's been in me for so long any longer.

There are things I have done. Things that they might never forgive me for. And I deserve the pain. Not some innocents. Not someone who just cared about another.

I can't let anyone sacrifice themselves anymore. I can't watch as those who care for me and others are being killed right in front of me. I can't let that happen again.

Vader stops in front of them as Lyra loses her consciousness. He stares at the three moment before raising his lightsaber.

I won't let it happen! Not again! Especially not to my brother! Or my friends! Not how everyone else sacrificed themselves for me! For others! For the entire galaxy! I will never allow it to happen again!

"NOOOO!"

Vader is pushed away from the three unconscious kids and onto the metal floor.

"I WILL NEVER ALLOW YOU TO HURT ANYONE ELSE AGAIN!"

Everything after that was a blur. I couldn't control anything. It's as if my body was its own person. I only notice a few of the many things that happened.

Kanan's lightsaber is taken from the ground and into my hand. I ignite it and charge. He blocks it and we stay that way, my feet slowly slipping underneath me.

"Foolish child, you really think you can beat me."

My vision becomes blurry and I don't remember anything here. Soon enough, it came back.

I push him away and charge once more.

He dodges it. "Yes. Use your anger. Fall to the dark side."

I growl at him. "I will never fall to the dark side."

I move back and slash at the only two beams holding up the platform. I take a step back as it crashes onto him.

I take heavy breaths, unable to take in what just happened. My vision grows blurry. I drop to the ground, the lightsaber falling out of my hand.

"Myra!"

I couldn't turn to see who it was. My body felt weak. I couldn't move. Darkness clouded my vision as I was picked up.

Next thing I know….I blacked out.

Zeb's POV

We couldn't believe it…..I couldn't believe it.

Myra just took out the lord of darkness. By 'erself. And the other 'in' is 'at's she's force-sensitive.

She did the same 'in' when Ezra saved me from Kallus. Arms stretched out, someone bein' pushed, and passin' out. Except stronger. Like she's been doin' 'is for a while now.

She also fought Dar' Vader. I don't know what came over her, but I'm glad she's alive. And gave us a chance for us to get out of here alive.

"Myra!"

Ronin runs out of the ship and picks her up. I pick up the saber and hand it to the now conscious Kanan.

"Ugh….what happened?" He asks, rubbin' his head.

"We'll tell you later. Help me get the kids in."

He nods and goes over to Ezra. He gasps when he sees 'im. And I wouldn't blame 'im. The kid looked horrible. 'Is 'air was matted with blood. 'Is jumpsuit looked like an old rag now. 'Ere were cuts, bruises, burns and many more injuries covered 'is pale skin.

Kanan immediately picks 'im up and brin's 'im into the ship. I pick up Lyra and Leo, and follow 'im.

We lay 'em onto the floor next to Myra, who's skin also seemed very pale. Hera immediately goes over to 'em wi' the med-kit, while Ahsoka jumps us into hyperspace.

As Hera works on fixing Ezra and Lyra's wound, we all sat, having our own 'oughts in mind.

Hera was soon done wi' Lyra's broken ribs and leg, which will heal in about a mon'. But, Ezra….We're goin' to have to get back to the Rebellion as fast as we can…if he's goin' to make it.

We are all worried about the kids. Myra just hasn't been the same since we found out 'bout some of her secrets and Ezra bein'….captured. She's also been cryin' a lot. I mean, if I had just found out my bro'er was still alive and rescued 'im, only for 'im to be taken away again…I would most likely act as how she is right now. She never cracks a smile anymore. 'Er eyes are dull and lifeless. As if the life 'as been sucked out of 'er.

Lyra hasn't been the same ei'er. Sure, I've only known about 'er for a couple of weeks, but…we've gotten alon' a bit on the Ghost and when 'ey found Chopper and me. She told me a few 'in's about 'erself. Lyra used to have 'at twinkle in 'er eye before we found out 'bout Ezra. She would always be tryin' to lighten the mood or cheery once in a while. But, not anymore. Same as Myra, 'er eyes are dull and lifeless. She would give a small smile 'ere and 'ere, but it's always forced.

Leo….well, I've haven't been around 'im or known 'im for that long. But, he seems to have lost some'in' important to 'im. Forced to do 'in's 'at he would never do. Tryin' to protect someone 'at can't be protected….The kid seemed to had a worse life 'an me. Leo looks ready to fight at any moment as if it's a normal part of 'is life. And what's worse is 'at man, who was tryin' capture Leo, is 'is cousin. Hera 'ad told us about 'im. 'Ow he was a bounty hunter and 'ow he tried to..capture Leo several times. The kid 'as definitely 'ad a rough life.

And Ezra…the kid 'as been 'rough many 'in's, but…bein' taken and tortured until he can't even move. 'At's 'arsh. He 'as been 'rough losin' 'is parents. Not seein' or heard of Myra for nine years. Livin' on the streets for eight years. Bein' betrayed. The grand inquisitor capturin' Kanan. Findin' out 'at 'is parents really are dead. On the brink of dea' in many missions. The list is endless.

But….tortured until he can't move? I can't believe the Empire would do 'at. Sure, he's wanted, a rebel, and a Jedi, but torturin' a kid? 'At ain't fair. To Ezra. To o'er kids. To all the people who 'as 'ier child in prison.

I just hope 'ey didn't torture 'im mentally, too. For all we know, he could've been driven insane. Or seein' 'in's 'at aren't 'ere. Or worse, he could've lost 'is memory. I really hope he didn't lose 'is memory.

Ezra is a part of 'is crew. He's the life of it. Most of all, he's family. If he wasn't 'ere with us, I can't imagine what life would be like. All I know, is 'at is won't be how it already was on the Ghost.

I feel the ship jump out of hyperspace and land in a dockin' bay. Nei'er of us said a word. We just pick up the kids and rush to the medbay.

Hera immediately pushes us out and starts workin' on Ezra.

(Time Skip to an hour later)

We couldn't see what was happenin'. We didn't what was happenin'. All we know, is 'at the kids could be in 'ere for a lon' time. Especially Ezra.

The kids don't deserves 'is. All 'ey ever wanted was the Empire to end. 'Ey didn't want torture. Even if it wasn't physically.

Why did the Empire have to come? Why ruin everyone's lives? What did the entire galaxy do to the emperor? Why? Why?!

I sigh and rest me head against the wall of the cabin.

'In's won't be the same from 'ere. We all know 'at. The kids are just kids. 'Ey don't deserve 'is.

Nobody does.

Nobody's POV

A black hand pushes through the pile of stone, helping in pulling up a body in black armor.

"Lord Vader!" Calls out a commander. "Are you alright?"

Vader remains silent for a moment before answering. "Where are they?"

The commander steps back. "T-The Rebels? Well…uh…they…they escaped."

The commander is suddenly pulled up and starts choking. He claws at his throat, only to feel nothing.

"Find them." Vader says venomously. "Find them and do not return to me until you do so. That boy is too powerful. So is the girl. Do not return without the two of them."

Vader lets go of the commander as he takes in large gasps of air. The commander scrambles up, trying to regain his balance.

"Y-Y-Yes…Lord Vader."

Vader walks away, leaving the commander in the now destroyed docking bay.
