I know that this is completely OOC for Hera, Zeb, and Sabine, but there's a reason for that. You'll find out that reason later on. Kanan also might seem a bit OOC, but according to the power of the Author, I can do this kind of thing. This is a product of my love for bad guys, and seeing good guys go bad.


Master… Help….

I'm coming, Ezra. Just hold on.

The Jedi and his padawan had not seen it coming. How could they? The crew had always been so good to them, never showing any hints of their plans. Then, the Inquisitor offered to give Fulcrum, who had been captured, back. All in exchange for Ezra. Kanan, of course, had refused to give up his padawan, so Sabine used her stun grenade on him. Only a few minutes later he had awoken and stole the Phantom.

Kanan was now trying desperately to find his lost padawan. Ezra had become more to him than just his padawan; he was his son in all but blood. He could not bear to lose him completely. How could they have given his son away?! HOW COULD THEY?! He didn't care that the dark side was creeping into his mind; he'd had enough of playing the hero. Being a hero only brought you pain.

He could sense Ezra up ahead. He was in that ship. Into the hangar he went, ignoring the damage the Phantom took, blinded by his anger and desperation. He barely noticed himself running out of the Phantom towards the nearest door, throwing Stormtroopers as he went. He needed to go up. There was a lift. Up he went. He needed to go right, but there were Stormtroopers in the way. KILL THEM. Yes, yes, he'd do that…

Finally, Ezra was behind this door. RIP IT OUT. What a wonderful idea! There was Ezra, looking about the same as when Kanan had last seen him.

"Well, isn't this a surprise. The Jedi Master with eyes shot through with the color of the Sith? Maybe you don't belong with the rebels. They did, after all, betray you and your padawan. What do you say, Jedi? Will you become a Sith Lord, thus insuring that both you and your padawan will be treated well, or will you go back to those who betrayed you without a second thought, and risk losing your padawan all over again?"

Go back to THEM? He couldn't do that. Ezra meant too much to him. The offer that the Inquisitor made was quite tempting… NO, HE WAS A JEDI! But, being a Jedi meant being a hero and a rebel. He didn't want to be either of those things anymore. And Ezra could have a better life if he accepted the offer. He- He'd do it. For Ezra.

"I'll become a Sith Lord. For Ezra."


A human male dressed in black, formfitting clothes and a black hooded robe stood on the bridge of the Vengeance, a Star Destroyer. His bright yellow eyes watched the crew of the ship go about their business. A second yellow-eyed human male, dressed nearly exactly the same as the first, walked up to him. He was shorter than the first male.

"Master, the rebels have appeared on Lothal."

"Excellent. We can get payback for what they did to us, isn't that right, Ezra?"

"Indeed, Kanan."
