Karabast. The simple word to describe exactly what Ezra was feeling right now. Pain still screams through his limbs, especially hitting home in his rib cage, though it wasn't the same fire that had attacked him before. The pain had been too unbearable for him to stay conscious. Now, it still screamed but, even that scream was slowly leaking away.

A faint laugh rang in his ears, strong, reassuring, familiar. Kanan. The darkness left him as his eyelids swung open to behold his master laughing faintly, a smile stretching across his features. A weak smile cutting across his face, Ezra exclaims, "I'm back!"

O.O

Ezra was alive. Unfrozen, the Jedi runs, between blinding red blasterfire, to the TIE. Ezra was alive. Kanan sprints up the staircase next to the TIE, taking the steps two at a time and, perhaps, dipping a little into the force to aid him. Ezra was alive. A smile plastered on his face, Kanan jumps into the TIE, landing next to a grumbling Zeb. Ezra was alive. As Kanan gingerly placed Ezra, feet first, on the floor, the, still dazed, teen was immediately hugged by Sabine. Wrapping her arms around Ezra, a smile of pure joy covering her face, she exclaims, happiness screaming through her words, "You're alive!" Sabine pulls back, her arms still on his shoulders, studying his face as though she was making sure he was really there. Ezra grins at the sight of the over-joyed Sabine, thinking wistfully to himself; maybe, just maybe, she might feelings for him, too. Hands reaching up to cover his ears, his face turns into a mask of fake annoyance, his eyes screwing close, a scowl building on his lips, he fake whines, "You're hurting my ears!" Sabine rolls her amber eyes playfully at the boy.

Hera casts one emerald gaze back at the fooling teens before, her fingers flying across the controls, starts to lift the TIE into the air, amidst blasterfire and an incoming wave of stormtroopers.
