Family by Heart (A Star Wars Rebels fanfic)

Chapter 16

"Do we have a deal then?" Vizago asked as he outstretched his hand in Kanan's direction in a handshake motion.

"We have a-" Kanan was interrupted by a roar and he turned his head up to see a TIE fly above them "TIEs!"

"Let's go!" Sabine said as her and the others dashed to the Ghost.

Vizago and his droid also fled and once in the cargo bay, Kanan went to the turret gun and Ezra and Zeb went to the side guns and Sabine went to the Phantom guns while Hera and Rae went to the cockpit. Once there they saw a fighting Athena and Chopper.

"You were the one that wouldn't let me out of here!"

"You are the one that can't understand anything!" Chopper beeped.

"What are you two doing?!" Hera yelled as she got in the pilot seat "Rae, I want you to use the front guns on the TIEs."

"On it!" Rae said and got in the seat to the Ghost's front cannons and Hera pulled the ship up.

"Chopper! Tell the fleet we got stuck up in this fight!" Hera ordered.

Chopper let out a string of beeps and left the cockpit.

"Athena, can you sense any Inquisitors?" Hera asked.

"I don't know how to do that yet." Athena said "But so far, no."

"She's right, I don't sense them near either." Rae said as she began to shoot at the TIEs.

"Alright, hold on." Hera said and Athena sat in the co-pilot seat as the ship began to leave the planet's atmosphere.

"Is this an every day thing?" Athena asked.

"Yeah." Hera answered.

"Hera!They got back up!" Zeb yelled over the intercom.

"On it!" Sabine yelled.

The ship then shook, meaning they were hit by a TIE. Athena started to say something in spanish.

"Athena! Speak basic!" Hera yelled.

"What?" Athena asked.

"Speak english!" Rae said.

"Oh..." Athena realized.

The ship shook again.

"Ah! I lost hyperdrive!" Hera shouted and got on the com "Chopper fix the hyperdrive!"

Chopper let out a string of beeps over the com.

"I don't care! Fix it!" Hera ordered "Or I'll let Athena and Sabine beat you into a pile of rust!"

" Wait,what?" Athena asked.

The ship shook again, this time a little harder than the last one, and then again.

"Ah! We lost shields!" Hera yelled "Chopper!"

Chopper came over the com and beeped a bunch of complaints and stuff Athena couldn't understand.

"What do you mean you can't fix them?!"

Chopper beeped again.

Hera's face went blank and a little pale and Athena noticed the worry spreading across Hera's face.

"What'd he say?" Athena asked.

"The fleet can't get here and the shields and hyperdrive are gone." Hera said.

The Ghost shook again and a Star Destroyer came out of hyperspace in front of them.

"Hera! We got company!" Kanan yelled over the com.
