The days passed slowly for the crew of The Ghost. Sabine stayed in her room, decorating her walls in depressing colors. Rei wrote more letters, recording messages for her family whom she knew was out there. Kanan was getting familiar with the controls of The Ghost, as they didn't have a pilot anymore. Zeb spent his time either working on the repairs on the Phantom that he should've done months ago, or sitting in the galley playing holo-chess against the still feminine droid, Chopper. Ezra just stayed in his room, utterly devastated. He cried silently sometimes, others loud sobs ripping through his chest. He had barely known Indigo, but he had already felt something between them, but now she was gone.
Dear Leia,
I still believe that Ezra is mourning for Indigo. He hasn't left his room since hepday of last week! I'm worried about him, but every time that I try to help, he pushes me away. Ezra's still in the sadness stage of grief, while the rest of us have accepted it. Well, almost all of us. I'm still in the anger stage. I'm just angry at myself for not taking that shot.
It's in slow motion every time I close my eyes.
Wish me luck,
Reityek Skywalker, your sister.
The ship suddenly lurched to the side, throwing Rei off of her bed onto the floor. She stumbled out into the hallway, running to the cockpit.
"Kanan! Where are we?" Rei yelled over the sound of everything in the kitchen promptly falling over, and a cussing lasat.
"Over the planet Muspin! In the Doreli system!" Kanan grunted. Rei slid into the co-pilots seat and barked something about everyone getting to the guns immediately into the comms.
"Zeb! Tell me what is shooting at us!" Rei yelled into the comm as Kanan pushed a lever to the up position, pushing the freighter to go faster. "Rear shields are down," Rei called over to Kanan, who started pressing buttons frantically.
"We've got about ten TIEs on the starboard side!" Zeb called over the comm. "There's also a small starship, I can't tell what model." The ship lurched forward again, causing a crash to come from above where Zeb had fallen. Sabine was shooting everything in sight, she had cut down the number of TIEs from ten to eight. Ezra made it seven.
"We're not going to make it!" Kanan shouted. "Be prepared for a crash landing!" The Ghost plummeted through the atmosphere, gaining speed as it started flaming out. As Kanan landed rather successfully for a crash landing, a twi'lek and a sith stood at the helm of a ship, watching as the freighter crashed.
Hera smiled and looked up at her master. "Allow me to go and kill them." She smirked.
"No." The cloaked man turned to his apprentice. "I am counting on it that they will meet someone in particular." Vader looked to the stars once again, smiling under his helmet. Everything was going according to plan.
