After The Fall - Star Wars Rebels

Our 'Friend'

Ahsoka was standing at the entrance of the temple. She looked up and saw the Phantom. She smiled, as it started to land. The hatch opened and she saw Ezra's hair, as she walked over to them. "It's good to see you again Ezra. Where's Kanan?" She asked. He gestured to the Phantom. "Talking with Hera. He's letting her know we've landed. She's pretty worried though." He sighed. "Why?" Ahsoka asked, frowning. "Kanan. He can't see anymore remember?" He said crossing his arms. It hit her then. She had fully lost the thought that Kanan, one of her closest friends, was now blinded. And for good too. She peered around the corner, looking into the small ship. The holoprojector had just shut off, and he turned to face her. She saw the bandage at his eyes, it made her feel sad inside.

"Hey," she started. "How are you-how are you feeling?" She asked. "Yes Ahsoka. I'm fine." He told her standing up and walking over to her. Without thinking, she hugged him. "I'm sorry." She whispered. "How did Hera take it?" She asked pulling back and leading them to the temple. "Not so good. But after a while we decided on something that would make this whole situation better. But I'd rather tell you that later." He smiled at her, making her chuckle. "So the rest of the crew is good?" She asked as they approached the temple. Ezra looked up, feeling guilty of the past events. "Yeah. There still 'healing' I would say, but still a little sad. Rex to." He sighed facing her. She helped lead him into the temple. Inside Anakin cooed at them. "Hey. I-I've seen that Convorees before!" He said pointing at him. "Yeah. That's Anakin. The one I was yelling at over the holo with. He can be a handful sometimes. And a pain in the butt!" She said looking at him. He just cooed casually.

Kanan laughed. "Wow Ahsoka. Your doing, great, on your own." Ezra said looking at her. "Thanks." She said smiling at him. "But, I think I've been away from home, for to long." She said ruffling his hair. He smiled. "When we get there, you'll be staying in my room." Kanan told her. She nodded. "So then, where will you be settled?" She asked. "I'm gonna be with Hera. She wants me to be more closer to her, so that if I need something, I don't run into anything." He explained. She nodded. "Make yourselves at home. If you need anything I'm here. Oh and I've been following someone here. Trust me we are not alone." Ezra and Kanan turned to look at her. "What do you mean?" Ezra asked. "The Eighth-Brother. When his light-saber broke, he fell right? Well the fall didn't kill him. He has no weapons, yet. I've been going around picking up old sabers to make sure of that. I don't think he knows I have been following him, but if he does, he could be getting ready for a fight." She said crossing her arms. "Alright. Well it's a good thing we don't plan on staying long." Kanan said.

"Anakin." Ahsoka called. The Convorees flew into her arms. "Go make sure the Phantom is ok." He cooed and flew off, out the entrance, and outside. "Hope it's still in one piece. So Ahsoka how did you find Anakin?" Ezra asked. "Well," she smiled. "He found me. In the ruins. He's been a big help to me. So he's coming with." She laughed. Ezra and Kanan did to. "What's taking him so long?" She asked herself. Kanan crossed the room to sit down. She walked over to the entrance and saw Anakin coming back. Rather fast. She held out her arm, and he landed there. He cooed. "What? Damn it! He must have saw the Phantom fly over head! Kanan, Ezra!" She called. "What's wrong?" Kanan asked walking over to her. "Our friend knows we're here." "What!?" Ezra said. "But you said he didn't!" "Yes, but he might have seen the Phantom fly over head." She explained. "This is great." Kanan said, sarcastically. "Come on. We need to go." They started running to the Phantom. "Hello there." A voice called stoping them in there tracks. "Oh, you weren't going to leave without saying goodbye? Were you?" He asked, sounding sinister. "Aren't you going to introduce me to your friends Ahsoka? Yeah, I knew you were here all along." He said igniting 'his' saber.

"Get to the Phantom." Kanan whispered igniting his saber. Ahsoka did the same. "Go Ezra." She said. He wanted to stay and fight, but his hybrid saber was now broken. He nodded and took off. Kanan attacked first, then Ahsoka. And the fight began.
