---Sabine's P.O.V---

I miss him. You can tell thats its effecting more than just me. Kanan's effected as well. You can see it. He is constantly awake looking for him. On that small box. You know the blue one that no one can open. Well no one but him. Dont know what its called either. I think hera called it a Holocron. But I'm not sure. I move to my paints. And pick them up. And I start painting my walls. Well again anyway. I do this all the time. Paint my walls. Its all I do these days.

"Sabine? Where are you?" I suddenly hear hera yell. 'what now?' I think to my self as I move to the common room. When I got there I saw her and kanan. Kanan looked pale. Like deathly pale. I guess having Ezra away so long must be hard on him. He saw me and then put his head into his hands. He looked like he was in pain. Hera then cut of my trail of thought when she said, " You need to see this sabine."   She said as she handed me a datapad. I looked at her then toward kanan. It was like she knew what was going to happen next because she put a finger to her lip as to tell me to be quiet and nodded. She then lead me out of the room to leave kanan on his own.

I looked towards him one more time as the door shut behind us. Hera moved me into the cockpit. Where she sat me down. "Now, sabine" she begain " We found that this data pad is connected to a small camera droid. That droid is in Ezra's backpack" wait, did she say it was in  his backpack. Like the one that he keeps on him like all of the time. "And this droid can be controlled from a point in the same system."

"What does that have to do wih me?" I ask "Why are you telling me this?" She looked at me and then hesitated. She didn't wat to say anymore, " You know what. Dont worry." I say, not wanting to put more pressure on our talented pilot.

---Kanan's P.O.V---

I dont underatand, where could he be. I mean I he was on lothal, I would eaisly be able to find him, we are connected after all. But I cant feel him. Its like he's not there. At all. Like he was 'gone'. But I dont feel the pain that the loss of a padawan apparently has on the master. So, he should be alive. 

Right?

Or is the fact that I. No he never made a proper connection with me. No that cant be right we had that conversation threw the the force. So we must be connected. So where is he?

I suddenly hear chimes. Like the ones I heard when I first met Ezra. The force is trying to show me something. I follow the noice to my room and to the draw where I keep the holocron. I open it and take out the holocron. Why now? Why is it showing me this now?

Why?

---Ezra's P.O.V---

I can't believe what's happening.  I've been put into a auction as a slave. A slave. And I don't know what I can do about it.

The sale starts. Slaves are brought left right and center. And the sale quickly comes to an end. And as i am start to be taken away again a tall woman walks in. She looked like a rich bounty hunter. And I bet I know who she is looking for.

The woman removes her coat and hands it to a guard who then leaves the room. Leaving the salesman, her and me in the room. She speaks to the salesman who then pulls me over to his side. The woman now that I see her upclose now seams familiar.  Like a person who you met a lon time ago who finally came to see you again.

The woman starts "So this is the boy I hear so highly of. Is that correct?" She stops.  Looking at the salesman who nods. "Good, he will be a useful addition to my crew." She inspects my face and then continues " And this is the reason your asking for so much. Oh no no. Unless there is something that comes with him." The salesman looks at me then the woman, and runs to the place where I was originally.

He came back holding my lightsaber. "He had this on him when he came to us. Its a personalised blaster." Oh good, he doesn't know. The woman now looked intrigued.  "Now you have my attention,  how much do you want for him?"

The saleman gave a smile " 125 credits for the boy and the weapon." The woman looked taken back by this remark. Almost insulted.  Then she did something that I didn't expect. 

"You will give me the boy and weapon for free" She waved her hand in front of his face. And he repeated what she said. " I will give you the boy and weapon for free."  She nodded in thanks and then beckoned for me to follow her. She then gave my lightsaber to me. She asked me "Where you from kid?" I didn't know what to say. "How is your master holding up kid?"

Wait... What?!

How did she know kanan? Did she know I was a Jedi? Was she a Jedi?

So many questions rushed threw my head as I wondered who this woman was. As she directed me to a ship. "Kid, where can I find your friends?" I didn't want to tell her. "Look kid, I know you don't trust me. But I want you back with your friends..." she looked towards me " I know you have mixed feelings about me. But you have to trust me now."

I finally gave in. " Fine, my friends are on lothal. Happy." She nodded and we moved into the cockpit where she started up the ship and flew into the space beyond.  "I'll get you home now. I bet your friends must be worried sick"  Wow she sounded like Hera for a moment there. But she wasn't.  She was taking me to her.

To sabine, Zeb and chopper...

And Kanan. She was taking me to kanan.
