( It has been five days since Ethan met his other two mothers. Since then. Ethan has been improving his skills with a lightsaber and his skills with a blaster. Even on a few flights with Hana and  Zada,  with  Arcee tagging along. Just to see how good of a pilot that Hana was. However, the peace and quiet had to soon end. For once their little cruise through space was finished. They had to imminently head to the Twilight. Once aboard, they immediately headed straight for the bridge. There they found the ship's captain Moragen, Windblade, Jai's team, Elita, Ahsoka, Causeway, and Tinji's group) 

" So, what's the situation?" Asked Ethan. " It seems an Empireal battle station. Where they manufacture tech like ray shields that can cover a hole base,  More improved ships, and armor. Has been located. We were able to hack their communications and learn about the base. This fleet is being sent to acquire anything that could prove useful to Mandilor and the rebels. Another team will set out and free any prison locked up in a prison facility on a planet two galaxies apart." Said Margret. " My team, team Fang, and two Jedi knights can deal with the Manufacturing facility." Said Jiska. " That leaves Tinji's team and the two remaining jedi to free the prisoners and destroy the prison." Said Margret as she discreetly looked at Ethan who shook his head. " We'll reconvene her on the bridge in two in a half hours to finalize the plan." Said  Hana as everyone left the bridge. Except for Ethan, Margret, Hana, Zada, Arcee, Elita, and Windblade.

" Something on your mind sir? Asked Margret as she looked at Ethan. " Why were the teams unbalanced? You have two teams meant for long-range and three jedi on a mission to destroy the facility. But on the other, you only have a team that's meant for close range. Even if they are jedi, they're still liable to get hit, far more easily than the first team. I'd say Partner up Mai's team with Tinji's team and have them free the prisoners. While team Fang and the remaining jedi that are available, take out the manufacturing facility. That way the teams are even With both having close and long-range members." Said Ethan." He's right, that plan sounds better. Plus it gives the team assigned to destroy the facility more ideas to work with and allows them to place the explosives in more hidden areas right after they get all the data." Said Windblade. " I agree, it'll even give them more time to figure out a plan if things go south." Said Elita. " Great idea partner, this will lessen the chance of losing a member of this team. Especially on its first mission." Said  Arcee. " Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. ( Looks at  Zeda). Zeda, can I talk to you for a minute?" Said  Ethan as he walked out of the bridge. " Sure thing. ( Follows Ethan out of the bridge and then walks alongside him). What's on your mind?" Asked Zeda.

" This has been bugging me for a while, why is it that when you all introduced yourselves to me? You're all Twi'leks as if there was something more to why you were all together. What exactly did my father do to gain your trust? So much in fact, that you would pass that on to me." Said  Ethan as they reached his room. " It's because, while some of us were sold into slavery due to our kind being the most sought-after. Along with others being the last surviving members of their family. Your father saved each and every one of us. Remember, we were kids when we met him. So to us, he's the dark night in ebony armor. That had come to liberate us from our darkness. We each swore that we would help you with anything that you would ever need. Whether it be a shoulder to cry on,  someone to talk to, need us your shields or your swords. You could say that we would kill for you if you asked us to.  At least me and Hana wouldn't.  The others wouldn't do it without a second thought. Heck, send them on a long-term mission to disrupt the empire's progress in developing new technology. They'll be gone in a flash. They saw your father as someone that they must appease even if he's already passed on. To them, we become their everything." Said Zeda. " So um, would they even. Well um. ( Whispers what he was trying to say to  Zeda and then backs away). Would they even do that?" Asked Ethan. " Yes actually.  But for now, get some rest. I'll come get you when the teams are ready." Said Zeda as she walked away while  Ethan entered his room.  

(Several hours later, The Resolute arrived at its destination. There the two designated teams took two separate shuttles. In order to reach their objectives. However, something else was at play here)

" Perfect, now all we have to do is wait and see how things play out." Said Margret. " (Presses a few buttons on his control panel. Before spotting something on his scanners). Captain, we may have a problem.  I've just picked up Empireal comms. It looks like they're attacking a nearby rebel planet. I've tried to get in contact with those on the planet and it appears that the Empire is indeed attacking the planet. For what reason, I am unsure." Said the intel officer. " ( Looks over at Ethan who nodded his head. Before watching him, Zeda, Hana, Arcee, Windblade, Ahsoka, Elita, and Causeway,  run to the hangar by). Hana's team will handle it. Our job is to keep an eye on things here." Said Marget as she watched Hana's ship quickly jump to hyperspace.

( Thirty minutes later, Hana's ship arrives at the planet)

" ( Looks down at the planet's surface to see  Rebel soldiers and Imperial stormtroopers blasting each other, alongside their tanks and AT-ST walkers. While X-wings and  Tie fighters battle in the skies). Looks like the parties just started. Hana, you and Zeda should stay on the ship and assist the rebel X-wings. Myself, Ahsoka,  and  Arcee's team will go down and assist the ground forces." Said Ethan. " That sounds good because your stops coming up right now." Said Hana as she flew the Crane low enough to the ground. Which allowed  Elita, Windblade, Causeway who was holding Ahsoka, and Arcee who was holding Ethan. To jump out of the cargo bay doors and land on the ground safely. " ( Watches as The Crane's cargo bay doors close. Before watching it quickly fly off). Ok team, shall we split up or stay as a unit?" Asked  Ethan as he looked at his team. " I'd say split up,  we could cover more ground that way. Elita, Myself, and Ahsoka will go this way. You, Causeway, and Arcee will go the other. This will keep the teams even." Said  Windblade. "OK then, but you guys need to focus your fire on the AT-ST walkers. Ahsoka can focus on assisting the rebels with the stormtroopers." Said Ethan as he activated his lightsaber and deflected two plasma bolts back at the stormtroopers who had tried to shoot him.

" You got it,  we'll either meet back here once we're done or call Hana for pick up." Said  Elita as her team quickly ran to the right side while Ethan's group went left. " ( Runs through blaster fire while deflecting any plasma bolts that got too close).   Arcee, Causeway, take out those  AT-ST walkers now. ( Looks at the  Rebers and then throws his lightsaber at six stormtroopers. Before watching as it cuts the stormtroopers in half,  before heading back to him. As it then flies back to him and lands in his right hand). I need every able to Rebels to find a more secure position. Get the wounded inside and hunker down if you need to. We'll take care of this." Said  Ethan as he sliced or selected the bolts back at the stormtroopers. " We got a Jedi in the area,  all teams grab the wounded and fall back." Said a rebel soldier as he and all the rebels nearby. Quickly strategically backed away from the battle, while caring those who were wounded. 

" ( Jumps onto one of the  AT-ST walkers and shoots it with her left arm blaster which destroys the cockpit. Before quickly ducking in order to dodge a plasma round from another  AT-ST walker). These things are quite the hassle. ( Picks up a steel pole and then throws it at the AT-ST walker. Which stabs the walker through the head and forces it to explode). I'm almost enjoying this. Hey  Causeway, how's it going over there?" Said Arcee. "Having a blast over here,  these  Walkers are pretty nimble. But the pilots aren't so bright." Said Causeway as she destroyed the last AT-ST Walker. " ( Contacts Windblade). Windblade, how are things going on your end?" Asked Ethan. " Elita and Ahsoka have already assisted all the rebel forces. I'm currently helping the Rebel X-Wings get rid of the remaining Imperial Tie fighters. We've got four left and then we should be clear." Said Windblade." Roger that, let's wrap this up so that the rebels can treat the wounded." Said  Ethan?" Roger that,  we'll get it done." Said Windblade.

( Twenty minutes later, after destroying the last Tie Fighter. All the remaining rebel forces got to work treating their wounded and checking their supplies. Hana landed her ship soon after)

" ( Walks up the Crane's cargo bay doors with the rest of his team and then sits in the lounge area on one of the couches). Well, that was an interesting battle. But for the Empire to attack the rebels at the exact same time we attacked their facilities. That just doesn't add up." Said  Ethan as  Ahsoka sat next to him. With  Arcee, Windblade, Elita, and Causeway either sitting on the floor nearby or leaning against the wall as the Crane took off through hyperspace once everyone was inside and its Cargo Bay doors were closed. "You're right, that was way too timed to be a coincidence. There may be something bigger at play here." Said  Ahsoka. Let's hope the others had just as much success as we did." Said  Arcee. " All we can do is hope Arcee. Though I have a bad feeling about this." Said Windblade.
