-break line-
His body started shaking. The anger was consuming him and he could feel his mind clouding. The man pulled off his hood before him looked straight at him and smirked. He finally saw his monstrous disfigured face after that night in his parents office. Ezra wanted to kill him so badly. He was the reason they left and never came back for him. It was all his fault. Ezra could feel his blood boil and he didn't listen to the warning bells at the back of his mind. He charged the man not even bothering about the clones. He was going to pay for the hell he had to suffer for.
1 hour before
Ezra looked out the window of the Ghost and watched as the stars and planets passed them. It had already been two hours and Ezra was starting to get bored. Kanan had told the crew before hand that they would be approaching the ship without using hyperspace since they wanted to avoid being detected or the fact that the hyperspace wasn't working right now because it needed repairing. He watched as a ship came out of hyperspace, he stiffened and put his hand subconsciously on his sling shot. Something didn't feel right and Ezra felt a sense of dread and despair coming over him. He could hear Hera speaking to the other ship on the com link and they moved forward to the larger ship. Ezra noticed how the scene was a repeat of what happened with the wookies, he just hoped it didn't end that way again. The doors opened to the cargo bay and the ghost landed with a loud thump on the ground.
The crew hurried to the exit of the ship and got into position to start their plan. Ezra moved beside Kanan and placed the cuffs on his hands. Kanan signalled for them to start moving and Ezra exited the ghost into the other ship. He saw two guards approaching them and he could feel Sabines hand now on his arm. She pushed him into one of the guards, stumbling he fell into the guard and tripped him. As quickly as he could he pulled his slingshot and shot the stormtrooper . Noticing the stormtrooper was unconscious he smirked, he had upgraded his slingshot so that the shock would penetrate their armor. After several failed attempts, including the one where he managed to electrocute himself it looked like it finally was working. He heard a crack behind him and turned around. Zeb was standing over the storm trooper with a massive grin on his face while cracking his knuckles.
"That never gets old", Zeb said chuckling
"Spector 4 get on with the mission" Kanan said while rolling his eyes
Ezra looked up at Kanan who nodded his head and followed after him and Sabine to find the prisoners. Running down the hall they saw two more clones and leaped into action. Kanan took down the one on the right while he took down the one on the left. They ran forward and turned to the door on the right. Ezra looked down at the panel next to the door. He took out his tools and started to hack the doors lock, a few seconds later it opened with a soft hiss and he had to grin. They never do learn do they he though in his mind. Every single lock he picked had all been too easy. Then again it was one of his specialties back home. He walked into the room and Sabine flew right past him starting her job. Ezra stood there for a few minutes bored while watching Kanan pull two more guards into the room.
"Got it! Their not too far from here" Sabine said
"Lead us to them, Spector, Kanan said
Ezra started following them out of the room and winced as a sharp pain formed in the back of his head. The sense of dread overcame him again and he stumbled into Kanan.
"Whoa kid, "Kanan turned around to look at him frowning, before a look of concern replaced it. "What's wrong?" he said
"Nothing, just a headache" he said wincing again
Kanan looked at him before turning around and started running after Sabine. Ezra started following after him before hearing an alarm going off. Cursing under his breath he picked up the pace, it seemed like it was going to be a repeat of what had happened on his first mission. He just hoped that this time around he wouldn't be left behind by the crew.
Kanan's PVO
Kanan knew something was up with Ezra, he knew the kid had been having problems with nightmares lately. When Ezra had stumbled into him and dismissing him after like it was nothing he knew the kid had problems trusting people in general. After hearing from Hera that he didn't have any parents, he knew that Ezra had probably grown up on the streets, surviving by himself. The kid had learned to grow up faster than a normal kid his age, he could see it in his eyes. Breaking out of his though he heard an alarm go off meaning they had to hurry up in freeing the rebels.
Following Sabine she lead them too a large door that would probably holding the rebels, at least he hoped. Motioning to Sabine he told her to set charges and she left them in a blink of an eye. He looked at Ezra and the kid looked like he was going to collapse. His face looked flushed and he was wincing in pain. He was worried he didn't want Ezra to push himself too hard, he motioned to Ezra to unlock the door. Kanan knew the quicker they finished getting the rebels the quicker he could get Ezra the help he needed.
Ezra's PVO
Ezra worked on the door his hands shaking in the process. The headaches had gotten worse and he felt like he was going to puke. He didn't know why he was feeling this way he'd gotten over his cold so unless it was coming back with full force he had no clue why. Ezra had barely gotten sick as a child, been sick on the streets usually meant a certain death. Concentrating he managed to unlock the door and stepped inside slowly. Ezra was shocked on the walls were different bodies shackled to the wall, beaten and bloodied. He could feel the urge to vomiting grow stronger at the sight. Ezra had seen some violence on his home planet, but this was over the line. The state they were in was disturbing , was this what would have happened to him if the crew hadn't saved his hide?
Trying not to think to long on the though he turned to Kanan.
"What should we do?" He asked him quietly
Kanan looked at him with a grim expression on his face and said "Will do what we came here to do..."
Ezra watched as Kanan raised his hand and used the force to unlock all the prisoners form their shackles. He could here moans of pain following and Ezra knew at least some of them had survived. He watched as at least six of the many that were on the floor get up slowly. Looking at them he realized how bad there conditions really were. Their forms were malnourished and sickly looking from infections. He heard footsteps behind him and turned around quickly. Sabine was running into the room like no tomorrow.
"We have to get going, clones are searching for us" she said
Ezra turned around to look at Kanan who was talking to one of the prisoners. He nodded and
told the rest of the prisoners they were going to help them escape. They started walking towards the door, when Ezra saw one man limping in pain. He moved over to him and put his arm around him to help him walk. The man turned his head towards Ezra and smiled weakly before looking ahead to the rest of the group. Walking down the halls they had a few run on with some stormtroopers all which they had taken care of. The prisoners had taken their guns and had been helping them as needed. They had finally made their way to the Ghost but the stormtroopers had gotten their first. They had formed a barricade in front of the ship and he saw a man dressed in black step out of the crowd of stormtroopers. A loud growl erupted from the hooded figure and he felt his face pale immediately. He looked at the man again and knew who he was.
His body started shaking, he didn't feel sick anymore. The anger was consuming him and he could feel his mind clouding. The man pulled off his hood before him looked straight at him and smirked. He finally saw his monstrous disfigured face after that night in his parents office. Ezra wanted to kill him so badly. He was the reason they left and never came back for him. It was all his fault. Ezra could feel the anger making his blood boil and he didn't listen to the warning bells at the back of his mind. He charged the man not even bothering about the clones. He was going to pay for the hell he had to suffer for.
Tackling the man to the ground he heard gun shots surrounding him, but he didn't care. The man was still smirking and it made Ezra feel even more enraged. He started punching the man on the face, not even realizing the tears had started to fall down his face. The man pushed Ezra off him and punched him in the stomach. Ezra fell down on his knees from the pain and the man punched him again but on his head. Ezra's vision blurred and the man was off of him in a flash. He stood up slowly and stumbled his vision going in and out. He looked up and saw Kanan running towards him. He could feel something warm on his forehead and touched it gently. Dazed he pulled his hand down and saw blood on his fingers. He felt a stab of pain in his shoulder and fell to the ground. He saw two figures coming closer to him, but there figures were blurry. He knew who they were though, they always seemed to haunt him everywhere he went. "I'm sorry" he mouthed to them and with that he blacked out enjoying the darkness that followed.
