Sorry that it's been a while since, I uploaded but a lot has happened. I ended up going to the hospital for an MRI, and the results were swelling on my right knee and breakdown of the knee cap tissue. Then a couple weeks later I saw an orthopedist and he told me that I also have Patellofemoral arthritis in my right knee, so I'm back in physical therapy.

The Ghost Crew

D3PO was walking back to where Lita was lying unconscious after failing to find any nearby water. When he saw three strangers bending over Lita, and one of them was holding her in his arms, the white protocol droid got very defensive.

"Get away!" Deethreepio cried out running as fast he could towards them, "I said get away. Get away from Mistress Lita right now!"

Kanan and Mina both held their hands up to show peace, but Ezra refuses to move or let go of Lita.

Ezra spoke, "It's not what you think. We were only checking to see if she was okay."

Before Deethreepio could respond, Lita began to stir in Ezra's arms. After a few moments, Lita slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Ezra Bridger.

"Are you okay?" Ezra asked with concern.

Lita slowly sat up on her own, while rubbing her head. She then says in a raspy voice, "Still a little exhausted, but other than that I'm fine." Lita smiled when she saw her companions, "Rori. Deethreepio."

Rori gently nuzzles her face relieve to see her owner was okay.

"Mistress Lita, it is so good to see you fully functioning again," Deethreepio expresses his own relief, and then the protocol droid hands her bag "Oh, and here is your satchel."

"Thank you Deethreepio," Lita smiled.

"Want some water?" Ezra offers.

Lita nods, "Thanks." She took the offered drink and took several gulps.

When Lita was looking at the boy properly, realization hit her. "You're the boy who was with those Rebels."

"And you're the girl who was with the Sith Lord on Lothal," Ezra counters.

When Lita notices Kanan and Mina, she got defensive and activates her red lightsaber ready to fight. "If you think I'm letting you capture me, then think again."

Ezra, Mina and Kanan put their hands in front of them to show the girl that they mean no harm. The three of them could sense that even if she really is a Sith apprentice, she's not like her master, the other Sith who they fought. It also made them knew that she wouldn't attack them unless provoked.

"Please put down your lightsaber," Mina said.

"Like Mustafar!" Lita glared.

"You don't have to have your lightsaber out, we're not going to hurt you," Kanan reassures her.

"Damn right you're not!" Lita responds coolly.

"Listen to Kanan!" Ezra told her, "We don't want to hurt you. We just want to know what you were doing with that Sith Lord."

When Lita looked at Ezra her eyes soften a little, but she remained headstrong, "I don't know you well enough to tell you." Lita also remembers that those two Jedi attempted to kill her father when they confronted them on Lothal.

"How old are you?" Kanan calmly asked the girl.

"I'm old enough to use this," Lita answers gesturing with her lightsaber, "If that's what you're thinking of, but you've already seen me use it."

Kanan shook his head, "No, that's not what I was thinking of."

Ezra took a couple steps towards her to try and calm her, "I'm Ezra, Ezra Bridger. And your name is Lita, right?"

Lita gave Ezra a half smile. "You're cute," she said, "For a Jedi."

"Thanks. You're cute, for a Sith," Ezra replies back.

Before anyone could say anything else, a blaster bolt was fired at them.

"Get down!" Kanan told everyone.

They all ran and quickly hid behind a huge rock as more blaster bolts kept shooting at them.

"A friend of yours?" Lita asked still having her lightsaber on. Rori hissed at whoever was shooting at them.

Ezra took a look to see who it was he then went back when the man fired again.

"It's him," Ezra replies, and then calls out to the man, "X10. Hold your fire, we're friends."

But the man only responded by shooting.

"Yeah, that'll do it," Kanan said with sarcasm.

"Yeah, he doesn't seem to want to be friends," Lita responds.

"That isn't my name, bounty hunter," the man replied.

"We're not bounty hunters!" Lita shouted at the man.

"And I know that's not your name." Ezra turned to Lita, "Turn your lightsaber off."

Lita wasn't sure why, but something told her that she should listen and she did what Ezra told her. Ezra then slowly stepped out from the rock, and the mysterious man shot again.

"Ezra no!" Kanan cried out worried for his young apprentice.

Ezra faced the man, "My name is Ezra, Ezra Bridger. I don't know you, but I think you might know my parents. Ephraim and Mira Bridger."

The mysterious man stopped shooting and put his blaster down, he introduces himself, "My name is Ryder Azadi." He then took his hat off revealing his white hair and blue eyes. "You're right, I know your parents."

Later when it got dark, they were all in Ryder's hideout, except for Rori, who was outside catching Loth-rats. It was also when Ezra, Kanan and Mina introduced Lita to Chopper, the C1 astromech droid Lita saw when she and Vader first encountered them on Lothal, needless to say Chopper took an immediate liking to the girl.

"I can't believe you're here Ezra," Ryder said to the boy, "I wanted to find you, but I guess you found me first."

"I know you, don't I," Ezra realizes.

"You remember? You were pretty small back then," Ryder comments, "I was the governor of Lothal. I supported your parents and the messages they beamed out against the Empire. It was part of the reason I was accused of treason and sent to prison with them."

"I do remember," Ezra replies, "Then you know what happen to them."

Ryder gave a sad look before answering, "Yes, I do."

Both Ezra and Lita could sense the answer wasn't good.

"They're dead aren't they?" Ezra answers knowingly.

Ryder closed his eyes with his face full of sorrow, "I'm sorry, son. They are."

Ezra sighed sadly and then said, "Please tell me what happen."

"You know, even imprisoned, your parents would stand up for those who couldn't, especially after they heard your message," Ryder explains.

Ezra gasped at what he said.

"Yes, that message," Ryder answered, "That message of rebellion you beamed out somehow made its way into the deepest dark of Imperial prisons. They were inspired by it, Ezra. They rallied others to rise up and break out. Dozens of us, rebels, sympathizers are free, thanks to them."

"But they didn't make it," Ezra remarks.

They got separated in the escape," Ryder explained, "It was just like them not to leave until everyone else got out first. But by then, it was too late."

Lita could tell Ezra was trying not to cry. "How? How did they know it was me?"

"On the transmission? Your voice, your words, son, telling Lothal to stand up," Ryder answered, "They knew right away."

Ezra remarked in a tearful voice, "You know, they used to say it all the time when I was little." "If we don't stand up, who will?""

Lita couldn't help but agree. Ezra began to cry, and Lita couldn't help but feel awful for him. Kanan hugged Ezra in comfort, and then Lita joined in hugging him.

Later that night after checking on Rori, Lita found Ezra alone looking at the moons. Lita walked slowly over and sat down next to him and gently put a hand on his shoulder.

"I'm so sorry Ezra," Lita said quietly, "And I may not be ready to tell you, but I understand more than you realize. I know what it's like when someone takes your parents away from you. Someone took mine away from me, especially my father." But I will get him back.

Ezra looked at Lita, "I know that you understand."

Ezra then stood up and walked closer to the edge still looking at the moons. He then had another Force vision with his parents, and the three of them looking upon an idealized Capital City of Lothal.

Force Vision,

Ephraim: It's beautiful, isn't it, son?

Ezra: Yeah. So peaceful.

Ephraim: That is all going to change when the Empire arrives.

Ezra: But I don't want things to change.

Mira: They already have, Ezra. You have made us so proud.

Ephraim: You are going to need to stay strong. Can you do that, son?

Ezra: Yes, I can.

Mira: Remember, Ezra. Without hope, we have nothing.

Force Vision Ends.

"Moons are setting," Kanan said from behind Lita and Ezra, they turned when they heard him, "Be morning soon."

"I saw them, Kanan," Ezra told him, "My parents. They were right here. I can't explain how."

Lita smiles to herself, she had a good idea to what Ezra was talking about.

"The Jedi teach that life doesn't cease at death, but merely changes form in the Force," Kanan explains, "Your parents are alive inside you, Ezra. They will be. Always."

As the three looked out to the moons Lita put the hood of her cloak over her head. She still had her black cloak with her safely in her satchel, but she decided it would be a good idea to change back to her white hooded cloak that she had when she was first taken from Naboo.

This was during the Star Wars Rebels episode Legacy. May the Force be with You!
