Disney Wizards: Dark Anomalies [UPDATED 4/7/2020]

Chapter 27 - Just A Few Simple Rules

"Kanan!"

A voice cried out followed by running footsteps as Ezra barged into cargo hold, appearing up on the catwalk, pushing his body against the railing to look down.

"Everyone o---"

He froze, his voice coming to a halt as his eyes looked upon the the new Wizard present with his friends.

"--kay?"

The black haired boy smiled nervously at the Padawan. "Hey Ezra."

"S... Santiago?" Ezra spoke slowly as he made his way down the ladder, just as the rest of the crew entered the room. The boy touched down, taking a couple steps forward as he looked at the boy, a set of mixed emotions on his face. "Is that really you?"

"Yeah," he replied. "It's me."

For Santiago, it was great to see his Disney guardian again. It felt like forever since he last saw him. Well, in a matter of speaking. He and Avalyn watched Rebels all the time on Disney XD.

"Y-Y-You came back." Ezra slowly smiled, his eyes widening.

"Well," Santiago shrugged, looking over at Sebastian. "I had a little help."

"Of all of the things I've witnessed in this world," Kanan coughed as Ben helped the Jedi to his feet. "I think this one takes the cake."

The Chilean boy chuckled at the remark as he looked over, catching the ginger haired girl staring at him. "It's been a while Kaitlyn. You doing okay?"

"I've... managed." She answered slowly.

There was short, awkward silence in the room as Santiago returned his gaze back to his lover, examining her neck as he stroked it gently.

Several bruises were beginning to form, violent effects from Darth Vader's choke hold. He swore to himself that he would get revenge on Darth Vader for what he did to her, and the Dark Anomalies as well, for granting the Sith Lord the power to attack his friends.

"We need to get you all to medical attention," Hera stated. "We'll be back Earth soon."

"I've already made contact with Star Command to pick you all up." Sabine added.

"No, bad idea!" Kaitlyn suddenly sprang up. "Can't we just have Ava heal us, and herself?"

"She is in no condition to even move, let alone heal us," Ben explained. "And even if she wanted to, her healing magic doesn't work on herself. It doesn't work like that."

"Sounds a little selfish to me," Zeb commented.

"Exactly." Ben nodded in agreement.

"When what do you suggest? Go back to Star Command where Santiago is out in the open?!" Kaitlyn snapped. "Seb, you just brought him back! Once we touch down, the Council is just going to send him right on back, and you could get into some serious trouble!"

"Well it seemed like a good idea at the time!" Sebastian quickly defended, setting Kanan down on the bench next to the couple.

"Well, it wasn't," She quickly retorted, crossing her arms. "What was the point in even taking that mirror anyway?"

"Hey, if I hadn't taken it, who knows where we would be right now!" Sebastian yelled. "For all we know, Avalyn could have died--!"

There was a sudden flash of light as the pair looked over to see a giant image of a purple lion's face. It roared loudly, scaring the two of them as Kaitlyn jumped right into Sebastian's arms. The ginger haired girl quivered as she buried her face into Sebastian's chest, as the boy held onto her tightly on instinct.
