Disclaimer: Same thing
2 months had past since Hunter was haunted by his hatred for Vader. Sabine and the others had helped him through the tough few months and Hunter said he was ready to get back to work. In their bedroom Hunter was waiting while Sabine was taking a shower.
"Sabine hurry up I wanna take a shower too" Hunter said
"I'll be out in a minute" Sabine said
"You've been saying that for thirty-" Hunter was cut off in mid sentence as he saw his fiancee wearing nothing but a towel while placing a hand on her right hip and she changed her hair again it was still longer on the right but this time the color was darkish purple color.
"You know if you want we could start taking showers together" Sabine said in a seductive voice while winking.
"I like the sound of that" Hunter said in a seductive voice as he placed his hands on Sabine's hips and the two shared a passionate kiss. "You could've told me you were changing your hair again"
"You never asked" Sabine smirked
"Smart mouth" Hunter playfully growled then started kissing her neck making her moan.
"Hunter-mmmm wait a minute" Sabine moaned as she gently pushed Hunter away "You know I wouldn't pass up sex with you but we're busy today"
"I know" Hunter said
"When we get done I'm all yours" Sabine said placing her hand on his cheek.
About 20 minutes later Hunter walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist as he saw his fiancée putting on her newly painted armor.
"So you painted your armor again" Hunter said
"Do you like it?" Sabine asked
"Doesn't matter to me" Hunter said walking up to her "You're still gonna be my wife no matter what color armor you wear"
"Awe thanks Honey" Sabine said as the couple kissed "Oh speaking of armor I have something for you"
Sabine opened the closest door and pulled out a red suit of Mandalorian armor with a matching helmet with the same white marking as his face along with vanbraces,a jetpack,and two blasters.
"Manadlorian gear?" Hunter asked
"It's a gift from me and my family" Sabine said "The helmet is from my Mother,the armor and jetpack are from my father,the van braces and blasters are from Tristan and you can guess who did the paint job"
"Sabine you didn't have to do this" Hunter said
"Yes I did" Sabine insisted "It's the least i can do after what you've done for me and my family. Before I met you I've never been so happy"
"But I don't even know how to be a Mandalorian" Hunter said "I never even knew I was one until few months ago"
"I'll teach you" Sabine said
"You will?" Hunter asked
"Of course" Sabine said smiling "After all you taught me how to use the Darksaber now i can return the favor"
"Ok I'll do it" Hunter said
"Great" Sabine said hugging her fiancé "Well don't just stand there go try it on"
After a few minutes Hunter changed into his armor and looked himself in the mirror. "Wow"
"You look awsome!" Sabine said "Makes you look stronger then before"
"The armor doesn't make me stronger" Hunter said "You do"
"Really?" Sabine asked
"Yes" Hunter said "You give me the strength to keep fighting the impossible fights"
"Just like you give me strength" Sabine said as the couple shared one last kiss before they left for their mission.
Later the Ghost crew was coming back to Yavin after they had just completed another mission.
"We're coming up on Yavin-4" Hera said "Sabine transmit the clearance codes"
"Roger that" Sabine saluted.
Just then Ezra awoke from his nap and fell out of his seat because of a bad dream...or vision.
"Ezra!" Mia said as she rushed over to help him up "Are you ok?"
"I saw Old Jhlo" Ezra said "I heard Ryder i think they're in trouble"
"Ezra we talked about this" Kanan said "Its just your angsiaty about Lothal"
"It's never in the breifings anymore!" Ezra said "No one even mention it anymore we promised promised Ryder we would go back"
"Yeah that was before Thrawn attacked our base on Attallon" Hunter said
"Hunter they're suffering" Ezra said
"I know Ezra but there's nothing we can do right now" Hunter said "You have to be patient the more you stress about it the more harm you're doing to yourself"
then the Ghost landed infront of the base as a Rebel soilder approached the Ghost crew.
"Commander Bridger Mon Mothma has requested your presence"
In the base Mon Mothma and the crew were surrounding the holo table as an image of appeared.
"We received this trasmission two days ago" Mon Mothma said as she played the message.
"The Empire is making improvements on the tie defender intell says the Empire has...brzzst zzzt...zzzzztt"
Then the hologram disappeared and Ezra looked worried.
"What happened?" Ezra said
"Ryder's transmission was cut off and we haven't been able to contact him since" Mon mothma said "I have witness the tie defender first hand if there has been a new development the Rebellion needs to know I also know how important Lothal is to you Commander Bridger I'm looking for Volunteers"
"When do I leave?" Ezra asked
"When do WE leave?" Hera said "we're all going"
"I understand captain" Mon said "Your squad does work best together but by all reports Lothal is on complete lockdown even if you make it in there's no garranty the Rebellion can extract you if things go wrong"
"I've had a long time to think about it" Ezra said "We'll get that intell but im going to help my people...which means I'm there to stay"
Later in space the Ghost came out of Hyperspace and flew infront of the ship that belong to Vizago.
"This freind of your Vizago is a criminal" Kallus said "He can't be trusted"
"Need I remind you that you used to think of us as criminals?" Hunter said
"And we used to think the same about you" Sabine said as she and her fiancé walked away into ther room and changed their clothes. Sabine was wearing an orange turtle neck with brown pants and Hunter was wearing a dirty mine worker's outfit with some sute on his face.
"Ok I know you're dirty in bed but this is taking it to far" Sabine smirked as Hunter rolled his eyes.
"At least I don't look like an orange turtle" Hunter said
"You're mean" Sabine joked
"Yeah but you love me" Hunter said
"Yeah I do" Sabine said as she and Hunter shared a kiss.
Later the Black sun entered hyperspace all the Ghost crew were all wearing ridiculous disguises then Chopper saw them and started laughing.
"Chopper if you say thing about our disguises II'll shut you down and use you as a trash can!" Hunter said as Chopper backed away slowly.
"Little harsh don't ya think?" Mia asked
"Hey i don't get pushed around by droids especially him" Hunter replied
Later the Black Sun came out of hyperspace and it looked like Lothal was it was burning.
"Look at the sky" Ezra said in fear "What have they done!?"
"They've posioned Lothal with their evil" Hunter growled
"Lothal isn't exactly what you remember kids" Vizago said as summited the clearance they entered the atmosphere the rebels saw that most of Lothal had burned away.
"They've burned it" Ezra said "they burned it all away"
Just then two tie fighter appeared in front of Vizago's ship.
"What are those tie fighters doing here?" Hera demanded "You said you have imperial permants"
"The permant are good" Vizago said "It's standred proceeder to have a tie fighter escort... sometimes"
"How can it be standred proceedure somtimes?" Mia asked "How many times has this happed to you?"
"This the first...time" Vizago said as he landed the ship and the Empire put magnet locks on it.
"Magnet lock they know we're here!" Hunter said
"Hey if they don't find us they got nothing" Ezra said "Stall them Vizago"
The Ghost crew ran down the hall and hid in the room with the Puffer Pigs while Ezra let them out.
"Are you sure this is going work?" Sabine asked
"As much as ever" Ezra replied "Ready Zeb?"
"Yeah just let me get my useful face" Zeb said
the pigs walked right up to Zeb and as they saw him they squealed and puffed up and rolled to the Stormtroopers while the crew ran out the the rebels made it outside undetected.
"Vizago went back for the pigs didn't he?" Ezra asked
"He's a pirate what do you think?" Hunter said
"Yeah but he can weasal his way out of trouble" Kanan said
"We can start at old jhols" Ezra said "we'll try to reach Ryder"
"If he's still there" Zeb said
"We'll split up" Hera said "Sabine,Hunter,Ezra,Mia and Chopper head for Old Jhols and contacted Ryder the rest of us we'll get a transport"
As the team split up. Then Hunter heard a howl coming from his side he turned his head and in the distance he saw what looked like a giant white stared at the Wolf while it stared back at him.
"Hunter come on!" Sabine called
Hunter then looked to his team then back and the wolf was gone. The Hybrid then ran to catch up with his team as the went to Jhlos.
Later the teens were walking in the city with Chopper as they walked up to Jhlo's bar.
"The Empire wouldn't do anytthing to old Jhlo" Ezra said "The people wouldn't stand for it"
"You sure about this?" Hunter asked
"It was the one place on Lothal where you felt like the Empire wasn't welcome" Ezra replied.
The teens walked into the bar and saw a bunch of imperials inside while the impreial march music was playing in the back round.
"You were saying?" Mia said
"lets just back away slowly" Ezra said
"No" Hunter whispred "That'll make us look suspisous,lets get somthing to drink"
The teens then walked over to the bar.
"Are you trying to get us caught?" Sabine growled at her fiancé.
"You got a better idea? now's time" Hunter said "besides not like anyone's gonna reconize us"
"Maybe him" Sabine said as she pointed at a holographic picture of a pilot.
"Baron Vallon Beruer" Ezra said as he saw the picture.
"Correct your eyes do not deceive you young man" Baron said as he handed the teens they're drinks "I am the impreial ace Baron Valon Beruer"
"Oh yeah wow" Ezra said
"Gosh what's an amazing pilot like you doing here?" Mia asked
"This establishment belongs to me now" Baron said "well the Empire of course I've been trusted to ru itwe don't get civilians in here anymore you look familiar"
"I used to come here when it was called Old Jhlo's" Ezra said
"I guess you haven't heard then" Baron said "A few days ago there was a raid on an expected Rebel cell the isb caught old jhlo helping them escape"
"Jhlo's been captured?" Ezra asked
"Captured and exacuted" Baron said "Shame I understand he was loved by the community but a traitor is a traitor"
Ezra then clenched his fist in anger. Mia immediately saw it and gently placed her and over his. That made him calm down.
"We should go" Hunter said "Thanks for the drinks Baron"
The teens were about to walk out until a stormtrooper stopped them
"Whats the problem?" Ezra asked
Owen old buddy ive been looking everywhere for you" another teen said as he approached the rebels. He had brown hair looked to be about the same age with green and white clothes.
"Did you forget to pay for your drinks?" He asked
"Oh I thought they were on the house" Ezra said
"Owen just pay the man" the teen said
"With what i don't have any credits" Ezra said
"I got it it's on me" the teen said as he paid the Baron and walked out thist the Rebels.
"Ezra Bridger welcome home" the teen said
"Who are you?" Ezra asked
"You don't remember me" the teen asked
Ezra took a long look and then remembered who the teen was.
"Jie Kow yeah it's been a while since our academy days" Ezra said
"Yeah you got me out of there" Jie said "this is my chance to return the favor Ryder kept sending me here in hopes you would show up I'll try to contact him for a pick up"
"Don't worry we got it covered" Hunter said
Just then a speeder pulled up with Hera,Zeb, and Kanan in it.
"Get in now!" Hera said
Just then some impreial tanks approached the Rebels then blew up the speeder after the rebels got out of it as more Storm Troopers arrived
"Guys looks like were going to need one of our famous plan B's!" Hunter said
"This way!" Jie said said as he ran in one direction whioe the rebels followed him. The rebels ran into the bar and in the back there was a hatch.
"Old Jhlo had smuggler tunnels all over town" Jie said
"Chopper scan the tunnels and find us a exit!" Hera ordered as Chopper flew down the hatch. While the rest followed. The Rebels ran down the pipes then stopped.
"This place is like a maze" Mia said
"Which way do we go?" Hunter asked
"We're lost" Ezra said
"These tunnels lead to a way put of town" Jie said
"That's a start" Sabine said "You should activate your becon so Ryder knows where we are"
"So much for disguises" Hunter said as he unloaded each weapon and gave them to their owners.
"Somethings coming" Zeb said just then a probe droid came out of nowhere and started shooting at the Rebels while Kanan,Ezra and Hunter deflected the bolts.
"I hate probe droids!" Hunter said as he kept deflecting while more came to them.
"They're transmitting our position" Kanan said "we need to split up"
The teens went one way while Jie went with the others.
The teens kept running while the probe chased them.
"We got company!" Sabine said
"Tell us somthing we don't know!" Hunter said whike he and Ezra slashed the droids in half.
"Please tell me you know how to get out of here" Mia said to Ezra
"I never grew up in the suwers" Ezra said
"What's the difference?" Mia asked
"Everything!" Ezra said "this is my fault I'm the one who pushed us to come back"
"No Ezra it's not " Hunter said
"Saw was right Lothal's gone" Ezra said "We lost"
"Hey we haven't lost" Mia said "Forget Saw you said as long as we're together there's hope"
"At least we'll all go down fighting" Sabine said
"Wait a minute" Hunter said as he ignited his blade to see Sabine's pheinox crest "Sabine isn't this your symbol?"
"Yeah it is" Sabine replied
"Ryder knows it" Ezra said
"He must have left this here to show us the way out" Hunter said
"Lets go" Mia said as they followed the symbol.
Later the teens found a wider pipe and looked around for the next symbol.
"I don't see the next symbol" Sabine said
"Me neither" Mia said
"Maybe it's down the next pipe" Ezra said
Just then more troopers appered in front of the teens and started shooting.
"These Troopers are like roaches" Hunter said while he deflected just the the other appeared behind them.
"We were following symbols that led us here" Kanan said as he deflected
"So were we" Ezra said
Then Chopper looked up and saw the last symbol as he tried to tell the others.
"What is it Chop?" Hunter asked just as he saw the last symbol. "The last symbol! Good work Chopper"
Hunter then used the force to bring down the ladder and climbed up but couldn't unlock the hatched.
"It's locked i can't get it open!" Hunter called
Just then the hatched opened and revealed Ryder.
"Welcome home" he said "now get moving"
The Rebels climbed up the ladder then climbed aboard Ryder's U-wing. Just before he got on bored Hunter heard the same howling from before. He turned his head around and then saw the same white wolf from before.
"Why are you calling to me?" Hunter whispered to himself
"Hunter what are you waiting for get on or you'll find a new fiancée!" Sabine yelled
Hunter then climbed aboarded the ship and then the Rebels took off while the wolf watched from a distance.
