Ezra's POV ~ (In his sleep y' know?)

Where am I? Oh no no no. Not on Malachor again. I'm laying on the floor. I don't want to be in that curse planet again. I don't want to face Kanan again. I open my eyes carefully. I'm laying in sand. Sand is all that stretches from where I am to everywhere. This planet has two suns. What is this planet?

I turn around and see a kind of hut. Almost like a house. I see a little boy running in and out with his mom chasing him. I get a pang of nostalgia. I wish my mom was here too.

- "Luke!" says the woman.

The boy only giggles and keeps on running. He looks like he's holding a toy ship in his hand. He started to climb on top of the hut and pretended to be flying a ship.

- "Luke! Get down right now!" his mother scolded.

The boy obeys his mom this time and gets down.

- "Mom, do you think I'd ever be able to fly a ship?" The boy asked.

- "No Luke, your supposed to be a farmer, like your father and me." She responded.

The boy looks about my age. Where in the Galaxy is even this place?

- "Wonderful isn't it?" Says someone behind me, "The youthful spirit of a child."

I turn around to see Maul. He only looks at me and gives me a twisted smile. What a creep.

- "Why do you even have these visions and make no use of them?" He asked, "I could help you understand them."

- "I don't need you anymore." I growl, "I'll have my revenge just you wait."

He laughed at my statement. He doesn't take my word seriously.

- "Kanan can't train you anymore." He said, "How do YOU think that you'll defeat me?"

- "Because of the Sith Holocron." I say.

He looks at me, dumbfounded. Now he's unsure. After all, the Sith Holocron is what Maul wanted from Malachor.

- "Well apprentic—"

- " I AM NOT YOYR APPRENTICE!" I yell, "GO AWAY!"

And with that I force push him to a sand dune. All of the sand falls to his face.

~ End of Dream ~ (also y'all have an idea on who the boy is??)

Ezra's POV

I wake up again, and see Zeb and Hera at the door. It might be in the mission. I get down from my bunk and approach them.

- "Ezra we're going to brief the plan in the common room at 1300 o' sharp, okay?" says Hera.

- "Okay" I simply respond.

Hera leaves the room leaving me and Zeb. Later on we saw Chopper roll in.

He beeped some random facts about him.

- "Thanks Chop, but we don't need that right now," I say looking at the time, "Look it's almost 1300."

- "If you come in again I'll turn you into an actual bucket of bolts" Zeb growled

    I ignore his comment and start taking my pistol and put it in my waist.

- "I'll start heading." I declare and leave the room.

I walk up to Hera and Kanan in the common room.

- "You have to stay, Love!" Hera protested.

- "I'll be fine!" Kanan said, "Just trust me!"

- "No," Hera said in a warning tone, "you are staying here, on Chopper Base."

    It's better if I leave them alone. I sit want to ruin anything. I'll just leave and come back. I start walking to leave and all of the sudde-

- "Ezra Bridger!" Hera yelled out, "You're coming with us!"

   I look at her, confused. Did I do something wrong?

- "Wha'd I do?" I ask

- "We're going on the mission," she said, "remember?"

- "Yes ma'am." I respond and sit down in the common room.

    Eventually, Chopper comes and rolls on, then Zeb along with Sabine.

- "Well I can see that some of us are late." Hera says while looking at Sabine and Zeb, "But here is the plan:"

    She shows a hologram of a docking bay.

- "Were going to locate them and scoop them up and hopefully not run into any stormtroopers." Hera continues, "This is why I'm assigning all of you except Kanan... Because of drastic measures."

    She put the emphasis on 'drastic' and I felt a pang of guilt.

- "We will be on our way to Mon Cala right now" Hera finishes as she goes to the cockpit.

- "This seems simple enough!" Zeb says out loud, which made him earn beeps of agreement from Chopper.

- "Don't jinx it Zeb." Sabine said, "You never know what happens when you're dealing with the empire."

I don't know but I had to nod at that. Sometimes they know just about everything, and sometimes they don't.

Chopper beeped some words that shouldn't even be translated.

- "It's not that bad Chop'." I said, "even I don't know how to swim."

He beeped some other words that are quite rude.

- "Chill you droid." Zeb said.

- "We are going to make it to the actually planet in a couple hours." Added Sabine, "So don't get distressed that fast."

I nod at Sabine's statement and Chopper beeped something about how I always agree with her because I l—

- "Shut it Chop." I snapped.

He droid, instead of replying back with another sassy comment retreated to the other side of the common room.

- "Stupid droids." I murmur under my breath.

- "So what do you guys wan' to do for like four hours?" Said Zeb with a bored tone in his voice.

- "We can play a round of dejarik." offered Sabine.

- "I- actually- nevermind..." I tried saying

- "I challenge you kid!" Said Zeb

(Okay sorry but I was too lazy to search up how to play so ima skip that time, capeesh?)

~ After a few rounds ~

Nobody's POV | Narrator | 3rd person POV

Ezra sat back after playing his 10th round against Zeb. Of course he had won and lose, but that wasn't on his mind at the time.

- "Battle stations, people!" yelled Hera through the internal comm.

Everybody was already rushing to their battle station, and Ezra sat there, already having rushed to his 'battle station' seeing The Ghost jump out of hyperspace.

There was the water-planet, Mon Cala. This was going to be one fun adventure

Sorry guys I'm so busy but I promise I'll update faster next time!
