Eli's pov... "Seriously, I've known him for a long time! You can trust Leo." I say.
"I don't care who I can trust.. Let's just find a way out and continue the plan while he is busy!" Ezra says eagerly.
"Ezra.. But... Alright fine.. I do have something that can help." I pull out a crowbar from a toolbox in the corner.
"I'm sure that's strong enough to break the lock!" Ezra chanted.
I nervously broke the lock and opened the door. I put my helmet on and carefully start to move with Ezra in the crate.Ezra's pov... As soon as we started moving, I felt something.. A faint tingle sensation. A small noise.. But.. I don't know why or how! "D-did you feel that Eli?" I whisper.
"Feel what?" He replies.
"Nothing..." I say, and I wasn't lying.. It was literally nothing. This reminded me of a few stories my parents used to tell me.. About.. A mysterious force and the Jedi Knights. I am too old to believe in that junk nowadays, I must keep my head in the game... Not on some fables. I peek my eyes out to see how close we were to the outside.... Nowhere near it.. Yet. I keep feeling that sensation! I don't know why this bugs me so much, but it does. Just then I hear a voice from behind us."Just what do you think you're doing?" Leo asked. "Rr.. Leo, I'm in the middle of something VERY important.. I'll talk to you later" He took a step forward. "It's for that kid right? Don't lie I saw him." Leo said. I shivered at this.. "Yes... And you would obviously know why." Eli said with a stern tone. Leo started chuckling, "But of course!", he paused walking up to the crate and pulled the top off revealing me. I glanced up at him with a fearful look. "Ey kiddo.. It's fine.. I'm gonna help you get out of here as well." Leo spoke calmly. "Really?" I ask. "Yeah.. Me and 190 have been doing this for a while now.. We're not rebels so don't even think that.. But we do help the captured and weak." Leo said with a smile, he put his helmet back on. "W-well.. Oh by the way Leo, I call 190.. Eli." I tell him. "Eli?", he glanced over to Eli. "Fitting." He said softly.
"Now we need to get moving. Time here is very limited." Eli said with a huff, continuing to move. Leo trailed behind. We got closer and closer to the exit. We are right there!! But then all of a sudden two troopers come from our sides. "Shoot." Mumbles Eli. But.. Leo just holds his hand up and starts to speak. "We're doing nothing.. Now you will be on your way." He says softly.
"You're doing nothing... Now we'll be on our way." One trooper says walking off. The other is about to do something when he does the same thing. "And you'll be on your way." Leo says. "And I'll be on my way." The last trooper says walking off. It's just like in those stories! "Leo... What was that?!" Eli asks concerned. "Don't ask.. It's a lot to tell.", he pauses. "Now let's go through the exit already." He said trailing off. I was so confused.. What just happened then.. Was just like a mind trick that the jedi used in those old stories! I've got to figure this out!
