Back with the ninth chapter of "New Guy From Earth," and I just saw Steps into Shadow earlier. It was a good start to the third season of Rebels, and I'm looking forward to see what happens in the upcoming episodes.

Enjoy this next chapter.


Chapter 9: Grabbing a Car

On the Ghost

Sabine's P.O.V

I lay in bed that night, thinking about Ezra, hoping that he was safe. I heard Hera earlier speak with him, and it was good to here that he was alive, but yet I just wanted to talk about it with Alex since he stayed in my room tonight, just like old times when we first met him.

"Alex, you still up?" I asked my bunk mate. "Yeah. What's up?" he asked.

"Are you worried about Ezra?" "A little. I spoke with him earlier after Hera ended her call with him, and though I'm glad to here that our friend's okay, I'm just worried about him still. I mean, what if something happens to both him and Jacob while down there on Earth?" "What did he say when you spoke with him?"

"He said that he'll contact us again when he and Jacob have figured out a good location to come get them, so we just have to wait a little longer. Just hang in there, Sabine, we'll get our friend back, I know it." "Thanks for believing that we'll see Ezra again, Alex. At least you're a good person to talk to when I'm concerned about something." "Anytime, Sabine. Besides, you're my friend after all, and I'm just glad to be there for you and for pretty much anybody."

"And I'm glad that you are there for me and us, and I'm glad that I'm there for you. I'm going to bed now, we've got an op tomorrow morning. Goodnight, Alex." "Goodnight, Sabine." And we were off to sleep.


Meanwhile on Earth

Jacob's P.O.V

Ezra and I walked for about 15 miles straight to London, and we were in the city now, walking into a cafe after I swapped my dollars, which I happened to have on me in my hoodie, for British Pounds. We went there because I suggested to him that it would be a good place that was quiet and one where we could discuss going for the crew to pick us up. Surprisingly, nobody has noticed us, considering that the governments of the world put a price on us. We requested drinks so that we could actually blend in with everybody at the cafe because some people in a cafe and not ordering anything may raise some questions.

"So, where can we go that is a good enough location for the crew to grab us?" Ezra asked me, sipping on his water. "Well, one thing is for sure: we can not be in a major city when they grab us." I answered, looking for a good location on my phone. After a while of searching, I may have found an ideal location. "This one seems good enough." I said.

"So?" Ezra asked. "The place that I found is north of here, and I think it might be decent enough. Basically all we gotta do is drive from London all the way north to Scotland, and have the crew grab us when we get there." "And how far is Scotland from here?" "467 miles from here." "Ugh. It's gonna take us, I dunno, days to get there!" "Correction, but depends on us still. It says it'll take us 8 hours and 5 minutes by driving. So we just gotta get a car and we'll be on our way." "A car, Jacob?"

"It's a type of land vehicle that we Earthlings use as transportation. I remembered that I had a friend in London who said that I could come see one of these days if I need a favor from her. Me and her go back, and after I performed a favor for her while she visited Seattle, she said that if I'm London, she's my person to come see." "Do you know if we could trust her?" I nodded. "She actually works for a car rental agency in the UK, and I will ask her if she could rent us a car." "Let's get going then."

"Hey, Emily, it's Jacob." I said. "Hey. Nice to here from you, old friend. Why are you calling me?" Emily asked in her British accent.

"I am in London with my cousin, and we would like to know if we could rent a car from your rental agency that you work for by any chance. "Of course. I'm working later hours today, so I'll have a car ready for you two. I'll have everything taken care of for you." "Glad to here it. And could we get an address for the rental agency?" "Sure. I'll email it to you."

"Thanks, Em. I'll see you later." "See you later, Jacob." I hung up after that, and me and Ezra departed for the agency.

"Ezra, shouldn't we get a change of clothes though. We don't want the public to identify us easily, right?" I asked him while we were near a store during the walk over. "You do have a point." he replied, the both of us walking in.

"Take your pick." I told my cousin, me going elsewhere to find clothes.

I found my pair of clothes to change into after a while. I went with a gray t that had the Rolling Stones logo with the tongue colored in a British Union Jack, light blue jeans that were ripped a tiny, tiny bit at knee level, but weren't ripped enough to show skin, and I kept my regular shoes that I had on. I started heading to where Ezra was after detecting his force signature, grabbing a backpack for myself along the way as I carried my clothes.

When I found Ezra, he was going with light blue jeans that were not ripped, an orange t that had the Union Jack in white, and like me, he wore his regular shoes.

We took our stuff over to the counter to pay, where I payed after having just enough pounds to make the payment, and then my cousin and I went into a changing room to change into our clothes. Once we were done, we continued our walk over to the rental agency

We arrived later at the agency, and a male rental agent who took over for Emily after she left for the day gave us the location of where we could find our car in the parking garage. He also informed us that Emily took care of payment and whatnot. We thanked him, and Ezra and I headed to the parking garage to find our ride.

Ezra and I went to get it, and the car that we got was a black Beamer(BMW). I got in the driver's seat on the right hand side, Ezra sitting next to me on the left.

"It's a nice vehicle." Ezra commented. "Yup. I've always wanted to drive a Beamer, and it feels good to get behind the wheel." I replied, both of us buckling up. I set my phone up, which still had enough charge left on it, punching in where we wanted to go, and then I started the car up.

We drove out of the agency, and drove through London as we made our way to the location to meet the crew. "Ezra, contact the crew. Tell them that we are rolling to the location, and send them the coordinates." I instructed him. "On it." he replied, pulling out his commlink as he called it.


Ezra's P.O.V

"Specter 6 to any Specters." I said. "Specter 5 here." Sabine responded, blaster shots in the background.

"Look, this is really a bad time! We're in the middle of an op here!" "Sorry, I wasn't aware."

"Ezra, it's okay, but please contact us later when we actually have gotten the stuff we need!" "Will do. Specter 6 out."

"Specter 5 out."

After my call ended, we were on our way to Scotland.
