Back on Atallon Hunter was sitting on ground looking out at the still thinking about that person with the blonde hair from his vision with the Holocrons.
"Who was that guy?" Hunter asked himself "why did I see? What part does he play in this? Arghh! All these questions and stil no answers!"
"Hunter!"
The Hybrid turned around to see Ezra and Sabine running toward him.
"What's going on guys?" Hunter asked
"Hera called an emergency meeting" Sabine said
"The transport to Taraloff was destroyed" Ezra said "everyone has to be there"
Later the three teens ran back to the base and met up with Hera,Sato and Hunters parentsl
"Hey we heard that the supply run to Taraloff failed" Ezra said
"It gets worse" Hera said sadly "we lost the entire escort of A-wings 6 pilots and the transports entire crew"
"How many is that this month?" Hunter asked "If this keeps up there's not gonna be anyone to fly for the rebellion"
"Luckily I've been working on a solution with the help of Fulcrum" Sato said while Ezra had a confused look.
"What are talking about Zack and Ahsoka are right here" the younger teen said
"Fulcrum is code name we give to our secret informents Ezra" Zack said
"Zack and I started the whole thing when joined the rebellion there are others but we do even know who they are" Ahsoka as a hologram of the Fulcrum symbols that matched the ones on Ahsoka's forehead appreared on the holotable.
"I have information that may help you decreasing pilot,there are imperial cadets that with to join the rebels I do not know there names but they aquire assistance to escape I suggest you move quickly before the Empire discover their intentions Fulcrum out."
"This is definitely enough to act on" Zack said
"Hunter and Sabine this mission is yours" Hera said "we've arranged for you to join a squad of new cadets heading for skystrike academy AP-5 will prepare crodentails"
"Wait shouldn't I be the one doing this?" Ezra asked "I've down this before"
"Yeah but I really was an impreail cadet once for years remember?" Sabine asked
"Plus I know how dismantle Tie fighters in case they find who we are we can make an easy escape" Hunter said
"Besides the Empire knows you too well Ezra you'll be reconized" Hera said "I need you Kanan Shadow them you'll be in communication helping them escape,Zeb and I have to superize the mision to Tarraloff"
Later Sabine and Hunter were on a shuttle and landed at Skystrike Academy. They exited oout of the shuttle as Sabine gave her crodentails card but it was denied.
"There seems to be a problem with your crodentails Cadet" the Officer said "security!"
"Wait!" Sabine said as she took off her helment and she had dyed her hair black "that happens from time to time can i see it?"
The officer handed the card back and Sabine blew on it a few time the rubbed it on her suit.
"Now try it" Sabine said giving her card back as the Officer scanned it again and it worrked.
"Proceed" the officer said as he scanned Hunter's card and it also worked as he walked up behind Sabine.
"Whew that was close" Hunter said
"Yeah too close" Sabine said as she continued walking while Hunter admired how her ass looked in the cadet suite and Sabine noticed.
"Are you look at my ass?" The Mandalrion smirked
"I can't help it" Hunter said "It looks really good in that suit"
"You're so cute" Sabine said as she took out her comlink and informed the othere they were in.
Later the teens were lined up with other cadet while the teacher was walking around them.
"Listen carefully Cadets" the pilot said "You are here because the Empire sees the potential in you to join the ranks of its most elite of you will fail,whatever you have achieved before means nothing here only the best survive prepare yourselves the first combat training will begin a to'600 squadron dismissed!"
The instructor left the cadets as Sabine and Hunter took off their helmets.
"I guess Ill see you in the morning" Sabine said to her boyfriend
"Try to sleep well" Hunter said
"I'll try but it won't be easy" Sabine replied
"Maybe this will help" Hunter said as he leaned in and kissed his girlfriend while she immediately returned it as the broke away.
"I love you" Sabine
"I love you too" Hunter said as the couple went to their seprate rooms.
The next day the teens joined the other Cadets for combat training with a virtual reality they completed the training the teens as well as another Cadet with dark hair stood next to them.
"What kind of ship was that?" Sabine asked "that was no transport"
Just then and older man stepped out of his station and approached.
"Oh but you are wrong Cadet" the lead pilot said "that was a transport called the Ghost a ship modified for combat the rebels are desperate extremeist they fight you in any ship by any means necessary that is why orders must be followed without question understood?"
"Yes sir" Wedge said
"Yes sir" Hunter replied
Sabine was hesitant to reply as the pilot got in her face.
"Understood cadet?" The pilot said
"Yes sir" Sabine said in a low voice as the pilot left with the other officers and stormtroopers.
"I see you don't risk when you two fly" Wedge said
"Well me and my boyfriend trust or guts" Sabine said
"And we know right from wrong" Hunter said
"I respect that" Wedge said "but alot of people here won't"
As Wedge walked off Sabine thought about he said as Hunter wrapped his arm around her.
"Hey you ok?" He asked
"Yeah I'm just thinking" Sabine said sadly.
"Come on we better get moving" Hunter said as he and Sabine walked off.
Later Hunter and Sabine were walking down the halls and just like Sabine Hunter also dyed his hair black as the couple heard whispering.
"I told you it was too risky" One Cadet said
"How are we gonna get out of this?" The other asked
"Will you two just relax" Wedge said "I don't know just take a break and meet me in the wing"
The three cadets seprated leaving the couple alone.
"At least we now know who contacted Fulcrum" Hunter said
"Lets talk to Wedge" Sabine suggested as the teens followed him to the hanger.
"Somthing wrong Wedge?" Sabine asked
"Um no why?" The pilot asked
"You just look nervous to us" Hunter said
"Actually I've been thinking about what you two said in the simulator today" Wedge said "on how this was what you signed up for"
"Look we want to do our part for the Empire" Sabine said "But firing at unarmed ships wasn't what we had in mind"
"What about you?" Hunter asked
"I was flying cargo ships when the Empire recruited me" Wedge replied "At the time I figured why not? It seemed more fun then hualing spare parts around the galaxy but if this is what the Empire's becoming I don't know"
"You ever think about getting out?" Sabine asked
"That's not possible is it?" Wedge asked
"More possible then you think" Hunter said
"What are you talking about?" The pilot asked
"My real name is Sabine wren and this is Hunter Archer we were sent in to get you out" Sabine said
"So the Rebellion did get my message" Wedge said
"Yes but we were told other pilots want out too" Hunter said
"There are 3 more" Wedge said
"Then we need to move before the Empire closes in can you get them ready?" Sabine asked
"I'll talk to them what's your plan?" Wedge asked
"We'll let you know when we come up with one" Sabine said
"Seriously?" The pilot asked
"Welcome to the Rebellion" Hunter said as he and Sabine ran off.
Later Sabine and Hunter met up with Wedge and 3 other pilots.
"Guys this is Sabine and-"
"Hunter?" One of the pilots asked obviously took her helmet off,she had milky brown skin with long raven hair that covered he lft eye as he right eye was gray. She was beautiful heck she was down right gorgeous.
"Mia?" Hunter said as Sabine looked at him.
"You know her?" the Mandalrion asked in a jeloaus tone.
"She kinda family" Hunter said "Sabine meet Mia Bontari"
"Nice to meetcha" Mia said "I'm with the Rebellion too you already know Wedge this is Rick and that's Hobby"
"Are you sure you're all committed to this?" Sabine said
"We made our choice" Rick said
"There's no turning back now" Hobby said
Then Sabine turned to Mia and walked with her. "So if youre with the Rebellion how come I've never seen you before?"
"I'm actually not with you're squadron im with Gold squadron with my parents and Uncle I was sent here to find secrets but my communaction with my squad has been cut just so I decided to talk to these guys and find a way out of here."
The teens then made there way into the hanger as they approached their assigned fighters.
"I can't believe they're making us go up in the middle of all this" Wedge said
"Well we have to make the most of this chance" Sabine said
"Listen there's a rebel ship near by waiting for our signal watch us when we go you go but you have to trust us agreed?" Hunter asked
"These rebels that ylu say are waiting for us do yo trust them?" Rick asked
"With our lives" Sabine said
"Yeah and ours too" Hobby said as he Rick and Wedge got in their tie fighters.
"Dont worry anout them" Mia said "they're just nervous is all" she then got in the tie fighter followed by Hunter and Sabine as the they all took off.
While in space the teens were practicing shooting until Ezra's transport came out of hyperspace.
"Sabine Hunter hope we're not to late"
"Right on time Little bro" Hunter said "Ok guys lets go!"
The fighters carrying the Pilots and Rebels flew toward the transport until a woman's voice came over the speakers.
"Cadets return to base at once this is your only warning"
"Negitive command you'll just have to come get us!" Sabine said
All of the sudden the wings on their fighter detached and the lost power.
"Ah crap the fighters were rigged!" Hunter said
One of the other fighters destroyed the pod that Rick was in then attacked the Rebel ship.
"Ezra get out of here now!" Hunter said
"No Hunter we're coming for you guys!"
"I gave you an order now get out of here!" The Lieutenant said
The transport took off into Hyperspace while the other fighers captured the Rebels and the pilots and brought them back to base.
Later in a holding cell the four teens were beening held by Agent Kallus and a couple of Stormtroopers until a Woman enter the cell. She was human with black hair and wearing a impreial uniform. Her name was Governor Pryce.
"I have so many questions to ask" Pryce said "But first I would like to know which of you is the Rebel Agent?"
None of the teens answered as Pryce walk to a torture table.
"Do you know what this is?" Pryce asked "Its mainly used to extract information from none responders"
The Stormtrooper pinned Wedge the table as was about to torture him until Hunter spoke up.
"Wait stop it's me im the rebel" the hybrid said
"Hunter don't" Wedge said
"And now we have a name" Pryce said grinning
"Thanks alot" Hunter said sarcastically.
"Kallus take these three to three to there cell Hunter and I have much to talk about" Pryce said
While Kallus escorted the others out Sabine looked at her boyfriend with a tear in her eye as the cell door shut closed infront of her.
"I wont talk" Hunter growled
"Well my boy lets see how far we can go with out you needing to" Pryce said as she pulled up Hunter's profile. "Hunter Archer wanted by the Empire not much known little hybrid lets see how tough you are."
"Once one of the Troopers took off his cuffs Hunter knocked them both down with a punch and a kick and a punch then went after Pryce as the two fought in hand to hand combat.
"You normally I don't fight woman" Hunter said "But I have no problem putting a bitch down!"
Pryce tried to punch the teen but Hunter grabbed her fist with his bio arm and clenched it making the Governor groan in pain.
"You this rminds me of a joke" Hunter releasing Pryce "But I forgot it so I'll just deliver the punch line!"
Hunter punched Pryce with his bio arm so hard it knocked her out completely as he grabbed the blasters on the floor and chuckled at his own joke.
"Deliver the punch line that's good I gotta right that one down" he said as he went to save Sabine and the others.
Later in their cell Sabine and the others were trying to figure out a way to help the cell opened up putting a big smile on Sabines face as she saw her boyfriend standing there.
"Did anyone order any sandwiches?" The hybrid "Because today I'm delivering heros"
Hunter was then consumed by the biggest hug Sabine had every given him.
"I was so worried about you" Sabine said with tears in her eyes "I thought she hurt you"
"Nah I was the one doing most of the hurting" Hunter said as he and his girlfriend shared a long passionate kiss until they broke away for air until Mia spoke up.
"I don't mean to break up this romantic moment but we should get out of here" Mia said
"She's right" Hunter said as he gave each of them a blaster "Lets move!
As then teens ran down the halls they were stopped by Agent Kallus. "Don't shoot"
"Give me a reason not to" Hunter growled
"Avoid Levels 3 through 5" Kallus said opening the blast door "and at 24 is your best possibility"
"Why are you helping us?" Hunter asked
"Tell Garrzeb Orrilios this make us even" Kallus said he pulled out somthing from his pocket and gave it to Hunter.
Hunter looked at the object in his hand,It was a memory chip that had the impireal symbol on it.
"What is this?" Hunter asked
"A messge for you" Kallus said
"Hunter come on!" Sabine called out as the hybricd ran after and caught up with the others.
The teens managed to steal a tank fighter doc onto the rebel transport and made it into hyperspace.
Back on Atallon the rebels made it back while the rebel leaders were waiting Mia had a big smile on her face as she saw Zack and Ahsoka.
"Uncle Zack,Aunt Ahsoka!" The teen cried as she ran up to them and hugged them both.
"It's great to see you Mia" Zack said
"How are parents doing" Ahsoka asked
"Their doing ok Uncle Saw is still acting like he's incharge of everything" Mia said as Hunter approached them.
"I take it the mission was successful?" Zack asked
"Yeah but the weirdest thing happened" Hunter said "Agent Kallus helped us escaped and he gave me this"
Hunter then took out the memory card and showed it to his parents.
"What is it?" Ahsoka asked
"He said it was a message for me" Hunter said
"Put it into the holotable we'll all listen to it" Zack said
Hunter along with his parents,Rex and Sato stood around the Hunter insterted the chip an image of a figure popped and all the rebels gasped in fear but Hunter looked more scared then anyone.
"No..." the teen said in fear "This can't be!"
The image shown in front of the rebels was none other the Hunter's arch enemy...Darth Vader.
"Greetings Hunter Archer If you are watching this then you have received it from thought you destroyed me on Malachor,you were may have grown strong but not strong enough to destroy me.I may not know where you're hiding but I do know this I will not stop u til I find you and destroy you and your rebel friends however if you surrender to me and give yourself to darkside i will spare your friend those are your two or be Destroyed"
Hunter looked down with his bangs covering his eyes while the others looked at him in saddness.
"Hunter?" Sabine spoke up
"Even at my full power I couldn't destroy him" The hybrid said as he looked back up. "Vader's out there,he hates me more than ever and it's all my fault because I couldn't destroy him" Hunter felt a chill as if the Dark Lord was watching himfeeling his pain and fear.
