The T-6 shuttle swooped low over the frozen landscape, escorted by two Nssis-class Clawcraft.

After months of searching, the clues had led Sabine and Ahsoka to Csilla. The Mandalorian's toes were curling excitedly in her boots as the anticipation became unbearable. The Grey Jedi placed a reassuring hand on the human's shoulder.

"Calm down, Sabine. We're almost there."

"I know... I know..."


Meanwhile, in the Chiss underground city, Ezra Bridger's ears pricked up as a familiar presence entered his sensory range. He instantly knew who it was. Leaving his quarters, the Jedi ran through the city in the direction of the landing platform.


Ahsoka brought the ship down to the landing platform and Sabine immediately bolted out of her seat, squeezing through the opening just as the ramp started to come down. There was a long ice corridor leading into the city, and right at the end, Sabine could barely make out a humanoid shape, and it was moving.

Moving towards her.

Not just moving, running.


Ezra was moving as fast as his legs could carry him. At the end of the tunnel, he could see a slender figure moving in his direction. The presence he felt grew even stronger.

It was her...

And she was running.


As Sabine ran, she threw off her helmet, cold be damned. She wanted to see him without that stupid visor in the way.


Ezra lowered his hood, not wanting anything to obstruct his vision.


Finally, they ran into each other's arms, Sabine practically jumping into his embrace, her feet staying off the ground as he wrapped his arms around her waist and spun her around, tears flowing down their faces.

"Ezra..."

"Sabine..."

She buried her face in the crook of his neck and sobbed loudly as she enjoyed his warmth.

"I missed you... so much...", she cried.

"I missed you, too...", he responded, "More than anything... every time I thought about back home... I thought about you."

Sabine pulled back slightly to look Ezra in the face, his stubbly facial hair standing out as the only unrecognizable part of him.

"You got old", she teased, choking through her tears.

"So did you", he clapped back, wiping her beautiful amber eyes.

The Mandalorian chuckled and pressed her forehead against his.

"You wanna come back to Lothal and get even older with me?", she asked bluntly.

Ezra smiled, placed his hand under her chin, and pressed his chapped lips to hers. They might as well have been on Tatooine, because as soon as they kissed, neither of them could feel the cold anymore. They both wanted it to last forever, but Ezra decided to pull away and smile at her.

"Sabine... nothing would make me happier", he responded.
