(Hello everyone I hoped you liked the last chapter, this ones longer.)

Disclaimer: Disney owns Star Wars Rebels not me.

We run back into our small house. My mother opens the door, fear is spread across her face. "Mother" I asked "who were those people and why are they here?" "They're inquisitors" "innqisitores?" I incorrectly pronounced. "Inquisitors, Anesa, they hunt....Jedi and take children like you away from parents." I could see a tear running down her cheek. My mother never cried....ever. "Why would they want me?" I mean why would they want a seven year old child the empires strong enough without me. "Your...force.....sensitive....." my mother said. Tears were streaming down her face, she didn't want to lose her child.

I could hear the TIEs fly away, then something clicked, like I could feel everyone again. My father and brother came running it, shock covered their faces. They also looked like thay were on the surge of crying. "Should we......take her." my father said "I think so, it would be better than the empire getting her." my mother agreed. With that my brother went off to find the ship that we had. It was old and I didn't like flying in it. It would always make this high pitched screech when we would turned it on. And it did as expected. We pulled off the old sheet and a blanket of dust flew off. The real horror was when we turned it on........SCREEEEEEECH it lasted shorter than I thought it would though. After it was done my mother told me to go grab two things I wanted to keep. I run back to my room while they are getting the ship ready. I grab my journal and a picture of the family. I shove the picture in my pocket and just held on to the journal, the leather cover is always comforting. Even the smell of it is, the feel. I take a quick look at my room, not knowing when I would be back......or if I ever would. I hear my mother call, so I start off after her.
I climb into the rust bucket of a ship. It was full of dust, everything was. I was actually scared to go in, I mean what if we took off and we lost control in space or something. This ship looked dangerous. But I got in wiped off my seat of all of the dust and just sat there.

My mother and brother came tumbling in, while my father was getting ready to go. He was just making sure we had everything like fuel and stuff. I didn't know where exactly we were going, but the way my mother looked at me I could tell I was leaving and probably not coming back. "Ready?" my father asked. We all nodded and with that we started off. I mean I really do love being in ship but I think this was the only time that was an exception. My brother looked over at me and smiled, but then turned away with a serious face on. "So what did you grab, Anesa?" my mother asked.
"A picture of all of you and my journal." She just smiled.
"Mom where are we going?" I asked. "To the rebels, they'll train you to be something good." I....after that I just couldn't talk anymore, I was simply lost in thought. What will happen to me? Will I see my family again? Questions like this ringing in my mind.

Hyperspace was even more terrible, the ship was rocking just like a plane with turbulence. I mean at least my father knew how to drive the ship, after all it was no TIE fighter. "How are you even going to get in contact with the rebels?" my brother asked. "We've communicated with them in the past just for a very occasion like this, we'll send them a transmission and they meet up with us. We are going to meet up on Tatooine just because we're both in the outer rim." So it wouldn't take too long to get to Tatooine, my guess was around 6 hours.

Time skip

We arrived at Tatooine, it was nothing but one big dry desert. I mean don't get me wrong I've lived on a desert my whole life on Mandalore, but this was worse, at least Mandalore had lots of greens and everything. But this was just one big gigantic desert. What was worse was the fact that the place looked like it had been over taken by bandits. There were huts witch I believed that they may live in or at one point have been a temporary home. I didn't feel safe here, I just had a bad feeling about it. "Mother," I asked "when will who we are meeting be here?" "Soon I think, I'm hoping maybe in the next hour or so." At least we brung enough water for everyone, if we didn't we would have all been parched.

We didn't know the time on this exact planet but when it started to get dark we all started to get worried. Anyone would have had the same reaction since there were nothing but bandits around us, and to top that off we know just how cold the desert can get. But thankfully soon we heard a faint humming in the distance, it was a ship. My father went in and contacted the rebel ship, I guess it was them. The ship came to a stop on the ground and the ramp slowly opened. Who came out surprised me, it....was quite a mix of a bunch.

There was a male human, he wore green armour. He was the first to introduce himself. "Hello, I'm Kanan Jarrus." he said. I look down, there was a lightsaber, it didn't look like the inquisitors though. I just nodded.

Next there was a green twi'lek. Her lekku swinging behind her. "I'm Hera Syndulla." She said with a smile. I liked her smile, I think she was someone who I could get use to. Next to her was the droid she said his name was "Chopper". I didn't know why they named the droid, unless their close to it.

The next person who came out I had a immediate connection. It was a female mandolorian. Her mando armour shining bright in the moon. "I'm Sabine Wren. What clan are you from?" she asked. "I'm from the Kelborn Clan, but to keep me safe we changed our last name." She nodded, I loved her shades of blue hair.

A giant lasat came out next. I have to be honest he frightened me just a little bit. He said that his name was "Garazeb Orrelios" or just "Zeb" for short. I just smiled this is someone who I didn't want to anger.

Two more people came out, both had lightsabers. One was "Ahsoka Tano", she was a Togruta. I've heard of her before she was wanted and apparently Vaders old apprentice. "Ezra Bridger" he had blue hair and simple clothing. This kid kinda looked like he grew up on the streets, he probably did.

My mother and father started to leave, I run over to them. "Remember the inquisitors where coming back to pick up that TIE!" I exclaimed. I guess Kanan heard this and came walking over. "They didn't follow you did they or know that she's force sensitive?" he asked. "No," I stated "I think I shut myself away from something, I couldn't feel anyone. And if they did they would have grabbed me on the spot." He noded then walked away to go talk to his crew. "Your going to have to make an excuse for why I'm gone, on the way back home. After all I know that they'll be waiting." "We know they will." my brother added. I gave everybody a hug and said goodbye. By now it was almost pitch dark, so we had to hurry. Ahsoka guided me to the ship, with a wave the ramp closed and the ship started.
I didn't know how I felt about this....
