The Return Of Alex

Chapter 13

Ezra's pov

Kanan is fine, he was only in the med bay for a few hours heating himself. I just feel bad that I froze him. I don't know why his master said I was ready for this, because I'm not.

I was about to open Kanan's door to apologize to him but nerves took over and I walked back into my room with Zeb. Surprisingly, he was awake. "Are you ok?" I ask him. "Yeah why wouldn't I be?" He asks. "Well your not sleeping so I just wanted to ask." I say.

"Your lucky I'm working on something or else I'd kill you." He says. "What are you working on?" I ask him. "Another weapon for Kanan. He used his serious voice so I had to do it." He says. "Oh you mean like this?" I ask. "Don't try it there is no try, do it." I say suddenly sounding exactly like Kanan.

Zeb and I both scream. "How did you just sound like Kanan?" He asks me. "I don't know I just thought of Kanan and did an impression on him." I say with a nervous tone. "Great, it must be another power." He says with a groan. "I wouldn't be surprised if you get another one and it kills us all."

I sigh and look down. It made me sad knowing he wasn't wrong. I almost froze Kanan to death so who knows what I would do to everyone else. I won't kill my friends, I rather never see them again then hurt them.

"Zeb can you help me with something?" Sabine asks through the door. He was about to leave the room. "Wait Zeb I-" But he already stepped out of our room. "I'm sorry." I finish. I need to leave, maybe for a day, maybe for a month. I just need to control my powers.

I then put all my stuff in my bag and head out. I try to make my way off the ship not making too much noise. But one person noticed me before I could leave. "Where are you going?" Rex asks me. I hesitate to answer. "Just going on a....supply run." I lie.

But Rex doesn't buy it. "If you were really going on a supply run, you would hide your wings." He says. Karabast I forgot about hiding these. "Where are you really going?" He asks me. I close my eyes for a second figuring out if I should tell him the truth.

"Ok.....I'm leaving. I can't stay here and risk hurting any of you again. I'm not sure when I'll be back but I can't stay." I say and turn around to leave but Rex grabs my shoulders. "Ezra, let me just say that we care about you. To be honest, we were surprised about the wings and new powers but we are just happy your here. Don't go." Rex says.

I just stare at him. "I can't stay Rex." I say. "Yes you could we will help you get through this." He says. "Kanan was the most messed up during the times you were gone. Imagine you did leave, you would hurt him, you would hurt all of us." He says.

I take a moment to think about this. I would hurt them. "Rex I'm so confused right now. I don't know what this all means." I say. "I understand but running off won't solve anything." He says. "You should go to Kanan and tell him how you feel."

See Kanan? I couldn't apologize to him so how could I talk to him about this? Rex notices my hesitation to respond. "It's not suppose to be a choice. You must go to him for your own good." He says. I take a deep breath. "Fine." I mumble loud enough to make Rex smile.

I then walk past him and go straight to Kanan's door. "It's ok Ezra, you could tell him anything." I hear a voice say behind me. I turn around to see my parents and Kanan's master in force ghost form. "Mom dad." I say keeping my tears from pouring down my face.

"We know it's difficult right now, but it will get better trust us." My mom says. They all smile at me and disappear. I then knock on Kanan's door. "Come in." I hear him say. I walk in not being able to hold back the tears. I see Kanan on the floor meditating. I start to light up the bluish color again but I don't care right now.

Kanan then notices me. "What's wrong?" He asks me full of concern. I just go to Kanan and pull him into a hug sobbing. "I'm sorry for freezing you. I'm just really confused about all of this." I say. He wraps his arms around my wings. "It's ok Ezra we will help you." He says crying.

At first I don't know why he's crying till I realize I'm still lighting up. I get out of the hug. "Sorry I didn't know I was still lighting up." I say. "It's fine." He says wiping his tears away. I wipe my tears away too. "I'm just really scared." I say.

"Don't worry, no matter what we will always be by your side." Kanan says. "Promise?" I ask him. "I promise." He says.
