Zeb and Kanan ran beside Ezra, who was in the floor, unconscious, groaning and holding his chest painfully.
Lilith woke up and scared when she saw that she was in Zeb's shoulder
- Please, let me go
Zeb released her
- I am sorry...
- It's ok...- She was in shock when she saw Ezra in the floor - Honey? You ok? Ezra?.. Ezra?! EZRA!
- Oww... Poor girl... she lost her true love
- He is still alive, Mara... and he'll kill you, because you deserve it
- Really? hahaha... you really think that i am so stupid to come here alone? without no one to protect me? So stupid! I am not alone...
Ezra woke up to saw her, doing a kind of signal with a lightning...
- This is the darkest creature in the Galaxy
Suddenly the lights in the medical center started to blink...
Someone hooded, but in its hands they realized it was female... all her clothes were black... and dark
Ezra narrowed his eyes to try to realize who was she...
- Kid... You don't remember me? - said a female voice, too seductive - ohh... of course you don't... You were just a kid of 7 years... the last time we saw each other
- M.. Mother?! - His mouth was trembling...
She took out her hood, showing her face... showing Mira Bridger's face
- Hello, dear... I am glad you reconoce me
- No... No ... No please...- He turned his eyes to hers...
- Now... you will fight in my side... in the dark side... - Suddenly she showed a black lightning pointing the kid...
Few hours later...
- Kid?! Kid! Please... wake up! You can't die, come on... - Zeb said worried , shaking him softly
Ezra woke up, groaning for a pain in his chest...
Zeb sighed alleviated
- Zeb? - he called weakly - What... What has happened? Is my mother alive?
- That demon was your mother? How can you call "Mother" to that monster after all she has done to you?
- Zeb... She is my mother! And she is good... where she is?
- You don't remember anything, don't you?
Ezra denied with his head, confused
- She electrocuted you with more than 5000 volt... I don't know how you survived... Kid... she is in the dark side... she called herself "Dark Mira"
- No...- he gasped painfully...- No... no, no, no no! You can't be serious... no...- He fell crying in the Zeb's embrace,
- Kid... it's ok... We're your new family... Remember?... We're in here... for you... You're a little brother for me
- It's not... It's not that! - he said, still crying and without any possibility of solace - I passed all my life wondering where my parents were,,, thinking they loved me,,, and now... my mother is in the dark side
- Oh... kid... - laughed Mira, entering in the cell - I thought you learned the lesson... you never have been loved by no one... You are a loser... - With every word, she electrocuted him. Ezra shouted... -
Zeb, angry went to catch her
- Let him alone!
Suddenly, the lasat started to float and gasping for air, touching his throat
- Mother! Let my friend go! Keep me in here... but let him go!
Zeb had been released by Mira...
- Go, lasat, before I change my mind
- Kid...
- Zeb... I'll be alright... Just go
Zeb, sadly, went out.,. They were in Rebel's base
Mira looked at the boy with hate...
- My little son.. you should know your own story.. Me and your father met each other in the Imperial Complex... We were siths since our born... and when I was pregnant of you, we wanted you... until the Emperor told us "The boy will not be a sith, because goodness is too big in him"
We didn't care in the beginning... but... well... when you born we were sorry about never aborted you...We were seven years thinking how let you die... But... we entered in reason and we realized that you would die if you never had had parents... So we did all that theater... but just worked a half part, because you didn't have us, but you survived without us... We never loved you Ezra... You are a loser... and your fate is not good... I hate you... as your father did
Ezra cried too much, in high voice, almost shouting with his face in his own knees...
- Any idea how much I hate you? I never wanted to have you...I did it for your father ... Because I loved him...You should never be born ... You're a burden to the Galaxy...
The cry of Ezra was loud...
Mira outlined a maleficent smile
- I should have aborted you...But you know? It's funny to see you suffering...It is a great pleasure...My son
Ezra could not stop crying... that made Mira smiled much more
- You really think your crew loves you? Nobody needs you...Your fate is suffer
And with that she started to electrocute him again, upping the intensity of the volt of her hands
Ezra shouted and cried...
Lilith entered, opening the door by the Force... She hit Mira who fell unconscious
Lilith went to help her boyfriend
- Ezra... you ok dear?
- Lilith... Stay away
- Why? - she didn't understand... why his boyfriend told that to her...
.- Because my fate is a curse... I'll always suffer... and you deserve much more
Lilith kissed him and Ezra gave it back to her ...They stopped kissing after a few minutes and Lilith took his chin and made Ezra looked at her eyes.
- Hey... - she said comforting him - I love you... and I'll never let you alone, it doesn't matter your fate - Their tears appeared - I love you, Ezra... with all my heart... I... I love you... And their lips were together in a kiss... again... with a little more passion
They didn't realize who was waking up...
