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

Chapter 28: Changed

"So all of us had our own adventures," I smiled softly.

"Yep, though mine was kinda boring," Owec joked and Ejik snorted. "As if!"

We all laughed.

"Well, it is nearly midnight," Cunee stood up. "We best get heading."

I also stood up, sighing, "Yeah, my crew would be worried."

"You be safe Mi. We can't lose you again." Ejik hugged me tightly.

"You too. All of you." I hugged her tightly.

"One more group hug before we all go?" Owec and Cunee joined our hug, making them surround me, and making me feel tiny in their arms once again. They let go after a few minutes.

"I'll see you all next year." I left and climbed into the pod, and took off, opening the fequency to the ship. "Hey Anoles. You still up?"

"Yep kiddo." She answered after a minute.

"What's up?"

"Nothing much. You on your way?"

"Yep. What's your location?"

"Just above Florrum's atmosphere."

"I'll be right there." I hung up and landed the pod in the part of the ship, and climbed into the quiet ship.

All the others were fast asleep except for Anoles and me. Even Greenie.

I walked into the control room and saw Anoles reading a pad and drinking what looked like either hot cocoa or coffee. She looked up slightly when I came in before putting down her stuff. "Hey, you have fun?"

"Yeah. It was nice to see them all again. They changed a lot." I sat in the seat next to her as she took her feet off of it.

She smiled softly. "I bet they thought you changed a lot too. The years do that sort of thing to us."

"What do you mean?"
"Well, you first met Wen when you were little. Look at him now. And me, when that idiot found me, I was a thief, trying to survive. I only really cared for myself, because I wanted to be a pilot but I never had money for a ship or lessons on how to pilot one. He changed me."

"Really?" I was surprised.

"Yep. You won't believe how long it took for me to be who I am today. But enough of that. You need to rest. You need energy for tomorrow, or today I guess. You never know what's coming next."

"Thanks Anoles." I got up. "Good night."

"Good night to you too Mira." She smiled and went back to her datapad.

I went to my room and threw on my pajamas, and put my things away before lying down on the bed. I pulled the blanket onto my shoulders, and closed my eyes to relax and soon drifted off to sleep.

I looked around, my lightsaber being my only light to guide me, as I heard psychotic laughing behind me. Swinging my lightsaber around, I heard it again, and saw walls rising and making a maze.

The ground beneath me began to shake and fall, as I started running away from the falling ground.

Jolting to the right, I started panting, out of breath, unaware of time, of how long I had been running. I tripped over something and skidded across the ground, the pain in my hands from the scratches the ground made and the aching of my knees from impact feeling undeniable as I scrambled back to my feet.

I powered off my weapon to run as fast as I could as I reached the edge of a cliff.

Using the force, I propelled myself into the air, however some of the structures which had created the maze reached out like vines from the pit below me, and yanked me down into it.

Hitting the ground at an impact stronger than my body could take, I cried out, feeling the immense amount of pain in every single bone snap and muscle spasm. I shakily tried to get up, seeing the figure from a previous dream, Darth Steix, walk to in front of me. She lifted the two crimson red lightsabers above her head. "Now, die." She swiped straight down, making me wake up screaming.
