(Yes my friends, it is time for another one shot idea. In this one shot a inquisitor defected to the rebellion. Who is this man? Gaylin Merick. A seventeen year old boy who no one will take in. That is except for Hera. So she moves him into the ghost. No one other then Hera seems to like him. Or wants to stay in the room with him if no one else is around either. Now Ezra wants him gone. He doesn't care what he has to do or want needs to be done. All he knows is that if he spies on him enough he has to find something he could get Gaylin kicked out for. Now unlike the other inquisitors Gaylin joined by choice. Why?)

It was a big like any other since Hera let the inquisitor move in. Everyone sleeper with the doors locked. That was why Gaylin thought this was the perfect opportunity to leave. He had gotten the call. If he wasn't going to leave now, he would break his promise. Now he may not have had many beliefs but, one was that no matter what he was not going to break his promise. He refused to do that. So very carefully and quietly he snuck into the Phantom 2. Quickly he got everything ready to fly. BANG! Gaylin turned around. The door was opened but, no one appeared to be there. So he closed it and headed off. Little did he know that under his feet was a compartment for people to hide in contained a signal person trying to contact the others threw his comm. Ezra decided to follow him. Now Hera would see they were all right and the inquisitor would leave. For weeks they had all tried to change her mind about him but, now she'd have to believe them. Finally he was going to kicked out. Well, if he didn't sense Ezra first.
~an hour later~
Finally the ship docked and Gaylin got out. Ezra waited a couple moments before leaving. Gaylin must have been really distracted. He didn't even sense him. After a couple moment Ezra ran out. He was surprised to see that he was in a med station. What was Gaylin going to do here? Probably kill someone. Or give information to someone. Or maybe-
"Can I help you?" A young woman asked seeing the boy looking around looked completely lost. It was very clear she worked here. Well at least he hoped so. Otherwise she was walking around with needles to kill someone and he had just talked to a murder. Ezra just stood there for a moment before asking about it.
"Yes actually. I'm looking for a Gaylin Merick."He smiled. The woman's eyes grew at the mention of his name.
"I just started to worked here a week ago. I don't know the number but, I'll take you to him." She smiled leading the way. Ezra made sure he had his comm on him as they walked passed many people. First they passed the new borns seeing happy families with their adorable new additions. Next they passed the emergency room. There were people running around trying to help the wounded. Patients were either getting discarded, helped or talking to family. Not one person seemed to be dead. Soon they passed med bots floating out of a large set of teal doors.
"What's there?" Ezra asked pointing at one of the sets of doors.
"Oh. Those are the surgery rooms." The woman smiled. Just then a man fast asleep in a wheel chair was wheeled out of that room. He had badges over his head. They continued walking. Soon they reached a bland white hallway with large white doors leading into each room. A couple rooms had windows. Threw one window you could see a woman hugging her husband who had burns all over his left side of his body. Another window revealed a bald woman laughing with her children. She had a cut on her chest.
"You know it's funny. I told him someone else would want to see them before she died but, he insisted that no one else would come." She stated pointing to a door. Ezra just looked at it.
"He's in there?" Ezra asked.
"Like every month he's always in that room with her." The woman stated.
"She?"
"What was that?"
"Nothing. Thank you."
"Don't mention it. Bye."
As the red haired woman in a white dress walked off Ezra just stood out side of the door. Who was this she? Gaylin's girlfriend? Maybe another inquisitor? With a deep breath Ezra walked in. What he saw next surprised him. A young pale very thin brunette girl around the age of thirteen was laying in a bed with a wires sticking out of her arms and a heart monitor right next to her bed. She had large cut all over her body. Except for her left leg which was completely gone. There were two silver chairs right next to her. One chair was closer then the other ones. The young girl looked up at him with her purple eyes. Her eyes seemed to light up
"Are you one of my brother's friends?" She asked. Brother? Gaylin had a young sister?
"Yes." He lied sitting in one of the chairs.
"Let me guess you're Ezra, right?" She smiled.
"Yeah." Ezra stated.
"Gaylin talks about you and your master all the time. And how much he wishes he was more like you two. How he wishes he was good. Which by the way is radicals because he's the greatest guy out there. I mean what sixteen year old runs into a burning building to rescue his sister?"
"He did what now."
"Oh yeah. I think he's only ever brought your friend Hera here before. Okay so one maybe two years ago I worked in a repair shop to get some extra cash. Gaylin had just became an inquisitor. He got a lot of money but, I still wanted to work. Now this weird guy came in a told me to fix this thing. Well of course I knew it was a lightsaber but, I still did it. I mean the guy was offering a thousand credits. Now the second he got it back a crewl smile spread across his face. Then before I knew it the building blew up. I was the only survivor and my leg was gone. Now he found me and was going to kill me right but, my awesome big brother rescued me. Yet, I'm still stuck here because of a heart condition thingy."
"So your his sister?"
"Yeah. Who do you think talked him into joining you guys?"
"Beats me. Hey, so we were playing truth or dare while floating around space Hera's idea. Has he ever dated anyone?"
"Once. Her name was Alina. Totally bitch. Okay, so for my brother's sixteenth birthday instead of buying him a gift she came clean about cheating on him with not one, not two but, five others guys who she was still dating all at once. His heart broke in half. Now he refuses to ask anyone out but, I'm sure you know about that Sam girl."
"Everyone knows how he feels about Sam. Yet, there's still the fact that he is to nervous around her to talk at all. It's actually really funny to watch him try to talk to her. So where are your parents? Gaylin never talks about them."
"Well dad died when I was around the age of three. Mom started dating this guy. He changed her. A lot. She died when I was nine by drinking to much alcohol. Then when I was ten our sixteen year old adopted sister Opal...............................she.............umm....we didn't know she was depressed until it was too late. She was gone. Just like that. Yet, that was three years ago. I don't think Gaylin has ever wanted to be part of a family since. As far as I know he thinks I'm the only family he'll ever have again."
"What about your mom's boyfriend? Doesn't he want you guys?"
"He wants Gaylin alright." She stated looking disgusted.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"He did things. When Gaylin told mom she said he was lying. She used to hit him for just mentioning it. He has trouble talking to anyone now because of it."
"When you say thing do you mean he'd-"
"Yes."
Ezra sat there in silence. He never told anyone. If he did then the others would have trusted him more. Just like Hera d-. All of a sudden a thought hit him. She knew. Hera knew about his past. This kid mentioned meeting Hera before. Maybe she knew about Gaylin's past this entire time. That's why she was so nice to him. Oh god. Now Ezra felt like an asshole. No.
"Ezra now it's my turn to ask you something." She smiled. Ezra snapped back to reality. He faked a smile.
"What is it?" He asked.
"I need you to do something for me." She waved her right arm to tell him to get closer. Ezra did as he was told.
"What is it?" He asked.
"I know I won't be around much longer. Can you do me one last favour and please take care of Gaylin for me? If you can then I can die knowing that my big brother is going to be looked after." She whispered into his ear. The boy was shocked. He thought she was going to ask if he really was a Jedi. Or if there was a way to save her. Yet, it was almost as if she knew that what ever was wrong with her it was going to kill her no matter what anyone tried to do to save her. He leaned back in his chair. The young girl sat there waiting. A nervous look on her face.
"I don't see why not." He smiled. Just then the door opened revealing Gaylin walking in with two cups of ice cream. Then Ezra saw something he hadn't seen before. A smile was spread across Gaylin's face. So he did have an emotion other than hatred.
"Okay so I got you Cotton Candy. And I have peppermint swirl." He smiled. His face fell the second he saw Ezra. In it's place was a look of fear.
"Gaylin I told you someone else would come here." She smiled. Gaylin just walked over to his chair, handed his sister her ice cream and held his out to Ezra.
"I don't suppose you want to try peppermint swirl?" Gaylin asked.
"I would love too." Ezra smiled taking it from him. Gaylin seemed shocked at first but, soon was talking to his sister. It was almost as if Ezra was seeing another Gaylin. One that loved to laugh, joke, smile, talk and seemed like an awesome older brother. Not the one he saw every morning give glares to everyone who messed with his stuff. Except for Hera. He seemed to only like her. Then again he did almost knock out Zeb when he tried to hit Ezra.
~time skip~
Ezra walked outside of the room for a moment to go use the refresher. Yet, before he walked off Gaylin walked out behind him.
"Say it." Gaylin mumbled.
"Say what?" Ezra asked.
"That you were right. I was hiding something. Tell Hera. Hopefully for you she kicks me off of the ship. After all that's all you guys want to do isn't it. Dump me off some where."
"I don't wanna dump you. Look Gaylin your sister Morgana is pretty cool. I don't blame you for not telling anyone about her. That way if you defected no one could hurt her, right?"
"Maybe."
"I just wish I knew why you joined the empire."
"We just needed the money. Plus I didn't matter what happened to me at the time. Just as long as she was okay. Yet, it doesn't matter now. She's supposed to be dead by tomorrow morning."
"That's why you came isn't it? To say goodbye to your sister?"
"I need to get back in the room. I'll see you later." Gaylin stated walking back into the room. It almost seemed like he was trying to avoid answering that.
"May the force be with you." Ezra mumbled under his breath before running off looking for the refresher.
~time skip~
Ezra was walking back to the room when he ran into the same nurse from before. She was walking out of Morgana's room looking broken. What was wrong?
"Oh it's you." She stated. Her entire face including her many orange freckles seemed to be happy for a moment. Then almost as if someone had told her one of her family members had died her face fell again. She pointed to the room. Her voice cracked a bit saying the next thing.
"Her heart stopped a minute ago. We couldn't get it to restart. Say your goodbyes to her."
Her eyes seemed to tear up. She buried her face in her hands and ran off as fast as she could. Ezra knew it was because she had began to cry. Very carefully he opened the door. Gaylin hadn't noticed. Instead he was holding onto his little sister's pale hand singing very quietly the lullaby he used to sing to her when she was just a baby. Morgana on the other hand was just laying up in her bed with her eyes closed.
"You are my sunshine. My only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are grey. You'll never know dear just how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away." That's when he broke. Gaylin just laid his head on to of his sister's hand and began to sob.
"P-Please don't l-leave me. Y-you know I-I hate b-being alone." He sobbed. Her last words rang in his head.
"Gaylin. I'm scared. I really don't want to go."
She had told him once she would never leave him ever. Guess that was a lie. Just like the ones the empire tell. Ezra walked over to Gaylin. He placed a hand on his back.
"Gaylin I'm going to go call Hera to pick us up." Ezra stated trying to walk away. A hand griped his wrist. Ezra looked at Gaylin. The boy's eyes were red and his nose was running. Yet, there was a single look he knew all too well. A look of fear.
"P-please. D-don't l-leave m-me too." He sobbed. Ezra pulled him into a hugged. Gaylin sobbed into his chest. So Ezra patted his back just like Kanan did when he found out about his parents.
"I won't leave you. Ever." Ezra stated.
"I promised."
