A Rebel's Destiny

Chapter 27

A long day of fixing the damage Chopper received after a recent fiasco meant the hunter was tired resting he was sitting nearby The Ghost at Chopper base when a familiar face showed up "hey, found something for you." Wedge said tossing the hunter a holo message puck making him sigh "thought I told you not to touch my stuff." He said not mad just annoyed "c'mon what kind of rube ignores a sugar report?" He asked Ezra gave him a serious look "private stuff is sent between these, if you seen it you'd probably have to die." The hunter said narrowing his eyes positioning his hand on the grip of his cannon before he began laughing and moved it away "hehehe I'm just fucking with ya." He said looking to him with a smile from laughter making Wedge sigh "listen, I got something to do. Something I put off for a while. We'll chat later." The hunter said standing up putting the message in one of his utility pouches on his hood and walked away.

Timeskip

It was night now the hunter rested outside not wanting to go to sleep nor the room he and Sabine shared taking comfort in the cold desert winds before hearing something beckon to him from inside "this is master Obi-Wan... Obi-Wan Kenobi." A message played Ezra raised a brow he heard this message before we walked into the ship towards the sound "I regret, I regret to report that both... I regret... our Jedi Order and the Republic have fallen..." the message played as he neared the source Sam popped out using her hacking skills to open the door leading them to Kanan's room "Kanan?" The hunter asked not hearing anything he took a guess to say he was in Hera's room with her "our Jedi, Jedi Order and the... have fallen... with the dark shadow... this is Master Obi-Wan... Obi-Wan Kenobi." The holocron played making the hunter raise a brow it had broken before when Maul and him used both of them but here it was working why "this message is a warning for any surviving Jedi... surviving Jedi. A new hope will emerge. A new hope..." it played before it cut off the hunter notice the Sith holocron doing the same "Kenobi, Kenobi!" Maul's voice yelled as the Sith holocron crackled and shined lighting up the room making the hunter squint and hold a hand up in defense before it stopped the hunter had a confused look before turning seeing Kanan in the doorway "Maul's back." The hunter said as he sighed looking towards the holocrons.

A little later

A emergency meeting took place Ezra, Kanan, Hera, Rex, and Sato standing around chatting "So what do you think it means, Kanan?" Hera asked looking to the Jedi "ah, I couldn't really guess. Holocrons at times take on a life of their own but as to what it means..." Kanan started making Ezra groan "it means Master Kenobi could be alive and possibly in danger right now." The hunter said tapping his foot in annoyance "Ezra, no one would like to believe General Kenobi's alive more than I would. But Senator Organa confirmed his death." Rex said sadly making the hunter scoff "you mean the same Senator that's as Secretive as one of Ikora's Hidden? I seriously doubt he's telling the truth." Ezra said before Sam popped out "besides, we know Maul went looking for the guy. Him and Ezra had mostly the same visions." The little light said making the hunter nod "exactly, and since the sith holocron activated at the same time, it may be a reach but that could be a sign that Maul is closing on Kenobi." Ezra said trying to convince the people at the meeting "or it could just be a broken recording." Hera said with doubt making the hunter frown "that doesn't explain why I heard Maul's voice. I..." he started before Kanan put a hand on the guardian's shoulder "but you've heard it before, you've heard it before, and it was just a trick. Maul was manipulating you." The Jedi said making the hunter tsk "I want to go to Tatooine to check things out." He said looking to the faces infront of him "Ezra, can I have a word with you?" Hera said placing a hand on his shoulder she said leading him away "we're training for the attack on Lothal and nobody knows that place better than..." She started before the hunter sighed shaking his head "no I don't, Hera I know you want to believe that my memories will come back if I train hard enough to remember, but I won't, the traveler, nor the force will help me with it." The hunter explained "besides if we find him we have a brilliant mind, plus another guardian, that will increase our odds for success even further, just trust me ok?" The hunter asked making Hera sigh "the answer is no Ezra besides..." Hera started before the hunter held up a hand "save it, I got to go uh... see about a ship." He said throwing Kanan the holocron he held whilst walking away the Jedi caught it with ease "Bridger. This discussion is not yet concluded." Sato said making the hunter nod as he left "oh, I know that's why I'm leaving." He said continuing down his path giving the group a worried look
