Ezra swallowed nervously as the Ghost came out of hyperspace.
The astroid surround clone base was just ahead. Last time he was here, he made a dangerous connection to the Dark side. He was scared he was going to do it again.
He felt a hand grasp his shoulder and looked round at Kanan.
"You alright?" He asked.
"Fine" Ezra lied.
"I'm just.... Thinking."
"About what happened last time?"
Ezra nodded.
"Don't worry Ezra, we made sure the Empire wasn't tracking us this time. Plus, I'll be right beside you, we all will."
Ezra nodded again, and gave his Master a small smile. He loved how understanding and kind his mentor could be.
"Still, why of all places did we come here to swipe some gear?"
"Because Stormtroopers you can't connect with to make them harmless. And the old ships here have some useful stuff that will help us."
Ezra looked out the windscreen at the base. Hera flew the Ghost towards it, even she felt a bit nervous.The Ghost landed.
Ezra could hardly feel his legs as the crew stepped off the ship towards the shadows. Fear engulfed Ezra as soon as he entered the darkness.
A snarl from deep inside echoed around. Making everyone freeze.
Chopper warbled a goodbye and sped back to the Ghost.
"Let him go" Hera sighed when Zeb went to go after the scared astromech.
Ezra could honestly say he would rather be Chopper right now. Going away from the Fyrnocks instead of towards them.
Hera flicked on her torch and made her way towards a Y-Wing. The others spread out to find anything useful in the ships, or round the base.
Ezra heard a low growl come from behind him, and swung round to come face to face with a Fyrnock.
Quickly, he connected with it and it sat down.
Turning back to the ship, Ezra pulled out pieces of the Y-Wing. Turning them over in his hands, Ezra put them aside.
The Fyrnock grew bored and padded off into the darkness, Ezra was glad it was gone.
A sudden scream met Ezra's ears.
Head flying up, he raced towards where the sound came from.
He skidded to a halt near a pile of trash.
Sabine was cornered by a Fyrnock, blasters far out of her reach. She was on her back and shuffling away from the wild creature.
Ezra barely saw Zeb who was lying on the ground a little way away, out cold.
Ezra could sense what was going to happen next.
"SABINE!"
Ezra flung himself forward, unaware of what he was doing.
A searing pain flew down his chest.
With a grunt he landed a few feet away from the Fyrnock.
Looking down, he saw four long claw marks running down his chest. Blood trickled out of the wounds slowly.
The Fyrnock lost interest in Sabine, and approached Ezra, snarling. It's right claws covered in red liquid.
Fear engulfed the teen. Fear flowed through him like a tidal wave.
Use the Force! Connect with it!
His conscious screamed at him. But he couldn't. It felt like his connection to the Force was non existent.
The Fyrnock leapt at him, Ezra covered his head. Unfortunately, the Fyrnock didn't try to strike there, instead, it bit his shoulder.
A horribly painful feeling shot from Ezra's limb as the animals fangs sunk into his flesh. With a scream of agony and fear, he Force pushed the Fyrnock across the ground.
The world around him grew darker as he heard a blaster shot and someone saying his name.
"Kanan?" He whispered. He wasn't a question, it was a call.
"It's alright Ezra, stay with me. I'm here, just stay with me."
At the sound of his mentors voice, Ezra felt a feeling of safety, as well as a searing pain in his chest and shoulder.
Giving in, he blacked out.I promise I will update tomorrow. 😆
