Chapter IV.
Hera and Sabine stayed on Kessel and Zeb and Kanan on Tatooine for seven days. They waited patiently for reports either from the Pykes or Hutts, and also asked shady people on both planets whether or not they'd seen her youngest crew member. She even bribed several of them with credits; before Ezra's kidnapping the crew got a big score and obtained seven million imperial credits. But the search had so far come up short. It was a reminder to them that the galaxy was a very big place.
"We've spent enough time here Sabine, let's look for Ezra elsewhere. I have a feeling we won't find him or where he is on Kessel," Hera told Sabine one day while they were walking through a village.
"I agree, it's been a whole week. The Pykes haven't contacted us once. We have to look elsewhere if we're gonna find. The question is where?" Sabine replied.
"I say we go to Corellia", Syndulla responded. Just then, the Holocomputer lit up and their other two crew members appeared.
"We're going to Coruscant to look for Ezra, Hera. Zeb and me have staked out Tatooine long enough. Where are you and Sabine going?" Kanan asked. Hera stroked her chin for a moment, then said, "Let's try Dantooine."
"The Hutts control that planet too, don't they?," Sabine asked.
"Yes, but I don't trust Jabba. It's possible that Ezra is being held on that Planet and that he and the Hutts didn't tell us," Hera answered.
"If we don't find him on those planets, let's meet back up on Lothal," Kanan suggested. His twi'lek lover said, "Alright. See you then Kanan and Zeb."
The holocomputer shut off, and Sabine said worriedly, "I hope Ezra hasn't been too badly treated by whoever his new master is. Then again that might already have happened on the street."
"We just have to hope for the best Sabine. And that Ezra's resilience holds out," Hera replied.
"Set Course for Dantooine."

Ezra moaned softly as Rupah traced the weals on his buttocks. The Zeltron woman was back in her room, and Ezra was on her bed. Abi followed up by rubbing her face against his steaming glutes, enjoying how warm they were. For her, relieving pain was just as arousing as inflicting it. She especially like using her own hands and other body parts to do that.
"Before I got involved in business, I babysat for kids in order to make money. I spanked their cute little butts whenever they misbehaved, and came to enjoy it. If I ever encountered an exceedingly good kid, I'd let him do what he wanted in exchange for letting me spank him or her," Abi explained her past to the Bridger boy. She had made sure, while still at her boss's building, to get him some water for his throat which hurt from yelling, and a cold wet cloth for his eyes which got red and puffy from excessive tears. Chanee had given both to him herself, once sobbing had calmed down after ten minutes.
"Drink this sweetheart," she'd said as she poured the glass of water down his throat. Then she held the wet cloth against his eyes, wetting it again as soon as it got warm.
Abi then started whipping his ass with her hair, which felt like an actual whip due to the pain his butt from the cane marks. Ezra's moans got louder and he writhed and clenched the sheets of his mistress's bed. After twenty strokes, the Zeltron stopped.
"I'll call the nightsisters to heal you after three or four days," Rubah assured him.
Thanks to the creams, ointments, and lotions, his buttocks now only hurt when touched. The weals has turned purple. Ezra felt ashamed that he couldn't withstand the thrashing he'd received, after he'd been punched and kicked and has his bones broken on the streets of Lothal. Abi then started kissing her slave-boy on his nates, followed by nibbling, then making the Bridger boy scream as she pinched his bum. After a dozen pinches, she told Ezra to dress and get back to work.
Later that night, while heading back to Rubah's suite, Ezra was grabbed and pulled into a vacant room by three girls, a Miralian, an umbaran, and a Pa'lowick.
"I'm Ashley."
"I'm Gwendolyn."
"And I'm Victoria."
