As the pain began to spread from my lower abdomen to my upper chest I swung my purple blade to the side pushing the green blade away from my chest, before the red blade came down on my shoulder. Quickly I punched my foe in the chest with my left hand and jumped backwards to try and get a breath.

Whoever she was she was good, and what was with the cybernetics on her chest. I saw a glint in her eyes as she smiled at me, it wasn't a smile that you would expect though, this was one saying that she was going to enjoy tearing me apart, limb by limb. She was the one that struck first this time, I was just barely able to pull my blade up to block the red and green blades that came down. The sheer force of the blow made my own lightsaber cut into my helmet. I couldn't see anything so I was forced to try and gain some distance so I could take the helmet off.

She charged at me again not giving me an inch. I brought my lightsaber up to block, before I could I saw a blue light enter the fray and block one of the blades while the other one continued on its course, I was able to block easier because I only had to deal with one blade. As soon as the blade had cleared its way I noticed that it was Kanan who had blocked the blade. As I turned around I noticed the rest of the ghost crew had joined the fight and it was then that I noticed the troopers had opened fire on my people.

"Looked like you could use some help kid," Kanan said as the woman had yet to come back this way.

"I had it," I took a moment to fire on a trooper, "under control." As I finished the woman charged forward striking hard and fast, first striking at me, I pulled my blade up and blocked, she struck repeatedly before Kanan stuck his hand out and pushed her further back before she jumped right back at him instead of me. Charging forward I used my lightsaber and tried to decide where to strike while she was in a blade lock with Kanan. I swung my lightsaber and it came down on her cybernetics.

She began to hiss before sending both Kanan and I backwards sticking her hands out before she stumbled back aboard her ship. I holstered my lightsaber and grabbed a nearby rifle from one of the bucketheads and dove for cover before opening fire on the rest of them. Soon after they began to retreat back to their ship. All around I heard the cheers from the crew of the ghost and Mandalorians alike.

A woman with black hair and cybernetics on her chest stood before a pale man wearing black armor and a disk shaped hilt on his back.

"There was more than one Jedi, Grand Inquisitor," the woman said not showing any emotion, though the man could tell that she feared what his response would be.

"Finish repairing your wounds and we will discuss your," he paused before finishing, "punishment."

After the fight I had managed to pull Ezra and Sabine away from the festivities, as the Mandalorian version of celebrate may not be the best thing for them to participate in.

"Why'd you guys come back?" I questioned them as I needed some reason to have pulled them away without making it obvious.

"We saw the Imperial ships come out of hyperspace and didn't want to leave you," Sabine responded.

"Glad we did too," Ezra intervened.

"How did Ezra do that with his hands earlier?" I asked, confused.

"You mean the force?" Ezra asked equally confused, only towards my question instead.

"If that's what the Inquisitors use, then yes," if Kanan is one of them than I'm in a seriously big helping of trouble.

"All Jedi can use it," Ezra said looking at me weirdly, "aren't you a Jedi?"

"Yes!" I said out loud, but I couldn't help but wonder, if the force is something that every Jedi can use then am I really?
