This is gonna be a little main priority since it's one of the shortest ones I've got. I'd do 'Runaway Sith' and finish it since I only have one chapter left there, but eh, I like this one a little too much XD

Also, this is still Season 2 but plus 3 years because the twins are 3 years old. S3 hasn't happened, Kanan isn't blind yet, Ahsoka's still there, and Maul is still in Malachor. Happy Day!

Enjoy!

Ezra pulled himself together as he had to run to his ship the moment he had gotten the chance. He closed the door and sat on the pilot's seat.

"Computer, set course to Lothal, stealth mode,"

[As you wish, Lieutenant Bridger.] the metallic voice came from the speakers as the ship automatically descended from Planet Segundo and into hyperspace.

As soon as it did, Ezra stood up and headed to the center of the ship then he fell to his knees and began to tear.

He didn't know how long he could hold himself together. They had been doing this since he was 8 years old, just a year since he joined PADU. He was always forbidden to deliver the undead, but he was still always forced to watch over him.

They were all from his universe and dimension, after all.

But that didn't mean it didn't break him to see them. There were Jedi and Padawans out there that survived the Purge who mourned for those whom PADU rescued.

Kanan was one of them. It hurt Ezra to see his master mourn for his master, his Padawan friends... all those that were shot down by the clones and killed by Vader. It hurt Ezra so much that the ones whom his master miss are in Segundo, living free and happy, away from the war.

Rex was another one. It hurt Ezra to see the clone reminisce through his life and remember what he had to do to his brothers... to his battalion. It hurt Ezra so much that the brothers he once had to battle and had to watch as they died are also in Segundo, with no war to battle and now relaxing with one another.

Ezra wished he didn't need to keep this from them. If it were up to him, he'd get the two of them (and Ahsoka, of course) and rush them all to Segundo. He'd let them stay there for all eternity (especially since the planet has a magic charm that lets anyone grow up until a certain age. By then, they will become immortal).

But it wasn't up to him. It was never up to him, no matter if this had something to do with his world.

He had worked his way to the top, went on the most daring missions, formed two best teams; one being the top agents and the other being the most powerful ones, and had clawed his way to be promoted to the Top Lieutenant of PADU, a member of the PADU Council.

Despite it all, he was still a non-inter-dimensional, forbidden to interfere with anything that Head Commander Oni Shitsu dealt with in his dimension. He was forbidden to even deliver anything from PADU to Segundo.

But he couldn't just break PADU rules that easily. Sure, he wasn't afraid of the head commander (he could poison that inhuman and hide his body with no shame), and sure, he had broken the rules one too many times before (a Rebel by Heart, I suppose), but he knew he couldn't risk any of his Rebel friends.

It was already a risk that Zeb knew of his job in PADU. It was a necessity, though, since the Lasat was his husband and Gia's uncle, so he had to be informed sooner or later.

But as far as Ezra could tell, no one else knew of PADU. It was for their safety, after all.

It didn't mean Ezra could handle the guilt and hurt.
