*My SWTOR is patching rn cause I wanna keep playing Fallen Empire but it's taking so loooooong.*

I don't own Star Wars Rebels

Ezra awoke from his amazing dream about things male teenagers think about, when he felt the ship taking impact from something.

What the hell man, are we under attack?

Ezra hastily threw on his usual attire before running out of his room to the main area of the ship. As he was running the ship rocked again, causing Ezra to almost trip.

Haha! Not today, teenage clumsiness!

He finally made it to the main area, and noticed that the ship was indeed under attack. Why it was under attack, Ezra had a pretty good idea of.

It's probably because I stole that meiloorun the other day. Totally not about being a rebel... definitely the meiloorun.

"Everyone strap in, we're jumping out of here!", Hera yelled from her seat in the cockpit. Then, she turned to the controls laid out in front of her and forcefully pushed forward on the Hyperdrive control. The ship's engines began to emit a higher frequency and decibel level. Then, the Ghost and her crew were instantly thrown hundreds of light years away from the attack.

Now that the crew had time to let go of the tension that an attack places in someone, they all visibly relaxed. Except for Ezra, he was still sleepy.

"That was a close encounter, but I wonder who they were", Kanan said scratching his chin thoughtfully.

"We were attacked by Imperial TIE's of some sort, so we can definitely say that it was the Empire", Sabine said. "But i've only ever seen those type of TIE designs on one ship before", Sabine paused, trying to place where exactly she had seen that type of TIE design.

"They were inquisitors." Ezra said simply. "I remember seeing the Grand Inquisitor's ship once before, the designs were the same."

The crew all took in what Ezra had said, and were all stunned that there were more inquisitors.

"I thought we took care of them, why are there more?!" Kanan almost yelled, forgetting his Jedi composure. Nobody seemed to mind thought, they were all still wrapping their heads around this new threat.

"We need to hide out, somewhere where we can draw them out. Somewhere where we can take care of them before they become an even bigger problem" Zeb stated matter-of-factly.

They all agreed, and Hera plotted a course for a nearby planet with an asteroid field, hoping that they could hide on one of the asteroids. However, their plans of attack were swiftly cancelled when both Inquisitor's TIE's dropped out of Hyperspace and engaged them again. This time however, they were closely followed by a Star Destroyer.

Oh shit, that is one big ship, Ezra thought as he watched the Destroyer lock onto them with it's tractor beam.

The crew of the ghost scrambled around trying to do anything they could to break the tractor beam's hold on them, to no avail. The ship was slowly pulled into the hangar bay, where the two inquisitors were waiting by their now landed ships. A couple hundred Stormtroopers were there as well, and they had their E-11 rifles trained on the opening door of the Ghost. The ramp touched the ground and for a minute, nothing happened. Then, a couple of thermal detonators were tossed into the bay. The Stormtroopers scrambled as the explosives went off, and the inquisitors whipped out their blazing red lightsabers.

Suddenly, Kanan and Ezra ran down the ramp of the ship, lightsabers whirling, and were swiftly followed by Zeb and Sabine. The two jedi were deflecting laser fire with ease, as the Lasat and Mandalorian were returning fire in the back. They were making pretty good progress, especially as Zeb laid down cover fire for Chopper to access a nearby terminal to deactivate the hangar bay shields.
