Star Wars: Rebels of the Stars (COMPLETED/BEING EDITED)

Chapter 24: Reunion

I took one of the pods to Florrum, after promising Anoles to call when I got there, her acting like an overprotective mom that I never had. I landed, spotting Owec outside Black Heart Brewery. Next to him were a familiar Torgunta and Twi'lek.

I saw the Twi'lek ask him something, and he nodded and pointed to me as I got out of the pod as I clearly read his lips say, "That's your surprise."

I heard Ejiksega scream in joy after her eyes widened faster than possible, and she ran to hug me with open arms. I started running, and we met halfway, and hugged each other tightly as we both sobbed.

"M-Mira... You're alive... After all this time..." She choked a sob out, as I hugged tighter and Cunee hugged us as well.

I looked at Owec who had walked over smiling softly, and yanked him into the hug as the four of us old friends stayed there for a minute and hugged tightly, before letting go.

"Mira, we thought you were dead," Ejiksega rubbed her eyes, smiling softly, relieved that I was alive.

"We should head inside. I'll explain everything." I smiled as I hugged them individually.

We went into the bar to see a few people there, mostly bounty hunters and a few other. Since Florrum was taken by the Empire a year or two ago, and broke up Hondo's gang, it was mostly abandoned.

We ordered water and sat at a round booth. Ejiksega was on one side of me, Cunee on the other, and Owec next to Ejiksega.

"So, talk! We've been worried!" Ejik perked, reminding me she was still energetic.

"Where should I start?"

"When... when we left you." Cunee said, a bit worried.

I saw Owec look away, ashamed about that topic.

"I hid. In the vents. I went into the library after and hid. Before... Paint. Found me..." The memories came back in emotions. "He tried to kill me, but Master Vulkri saved me."

"Guess that's twice you owe her." Cunee chuckled.

"Twice?" I scrunched up my nose, confused, "When was the first time?"

"Mira, did we never tell you? She's the one who brought you to the temple." Owec responded.

"I-I guess I don't remember." I sighed, anyways, we escaped and she raised me for fifteen years. While in hiding she trained me."

"Betcha better than Cunee now!"

"Hey!" He grumbled.

I laughed lightheartedly.

There was a small outcry of cheers in a small group of bounty hunters. I looked over at the party to see a brown weequay with something like a pirate outfit leave and walk over. "Cunee! I think you and your friends should join the party! You know the Jedi are always friends of mine!" He laughed.

"No thanks Hondo. Again. You ask every time." He chuckled.

"Who's this one? I don't think I've seen you before. Hondo Ohnaka." He held out his hand.

"Mira." I shook it.

"Ah, the one you spoke about!" He looked at Cunee, who nodded, before Hondo continued, "You made your friends worried these past 16 years! You seen old Kenobi?"

"I'm sorry, but no. Not since the last transmission."

"Such a shame. A good friend, and ally whom I could trust amongst the Jedi. "

"Hondo, go join your bounty hunter and rebel friends. I'll come help you after." Cunee stood up.

"I wish to talk to Mira, for a second."

"It's ok Cunee. I'll be ok." I slipped out of the booth, as Hondo started walking.

"Walk with me. We have a bit to talk about." He motioned and I caught up.

"What did you wish to speak with me about?" I asked, after a few moments of silence.

"Cunee has told me all about you and the rest of his friends over the years together, and how you were most likely dead. Top of your class, if I remember he said once?"

"Yes." I nodded.

"Only four when the fall of the Republic happened?"

"Five in three weeks."

"So what exactly went down? Who's to blame?"

"I...." I thought, "I can't say I really blame anyone other than the Emperor. And maybe Vader for some parts. The clones didn't have a choice, with those chips in their heads."

"I see. What if I told you three clones, and three Jedi are still alive?"

"Which clones? Because I also know 3." I added.

"Captain Rex, Commander Wolffe, and Captain Gregor."

"Wen, Captain Climber, and Trace."

"So six all together!" He laughed and clapped his hands together. "The Jedi are Ahsoka Tano, Ezra Bridger, and Kanan Jarrus. I assume you remember the infamous Ahsoka, old friend of mine, and you most likely don't know Ezra. Younger than you, and the old Order. He and Kanan are part of a Rebel crew."

"Why are you telling me this?" I asked.

"Because, that's what friends are for."

"Well, thank you."

"Anything for a friend." He sorta bowed, and I chuckled, before heading back to my friends.
