Star Wars Rebels

A Old Friend In Need

When I arrived on Onderon I was greeted by Saw.

"What do we know so far?" I asked with a frown.

"Lux and his family are in a holding cell in the main castle. Seventh Sister is holding them under close guard." He said with a growl.

"Okay, So we need to get them out, have they placed a time for their sentence?"

"In two days at dawn. We only have one chance."

"I know. So what's the plan?"

We walked to an abandoned house and I listened to Saw's plan. I was to sneak in with a group of his people and get Lux and the others out. We waited until night time before we snuck in. It didn't take us long to find the holding cells. I tore the door off and rushed in.

"(Y/n)?" Maia asked shocked.

"Where is Lux and June?" I asked with a frown.

"They took them.... I don't know where." She said sadly.

"Get her out of here, I'm going to look for them." I said to a soldier.

"But the plan-"

"Was to get Lux and his family out of here, and that's what I came to do." I growled out as I took off down the hallway.

After awhile I stopped and felt through the force where they were. When I found them I ran towards their room. I stopped behind a wall and saw the Seventh Sister talking to them.

"If you give (y/n) up, we will forgive you." She said softly.

"I'd rather die." Lux growled out.

"So be it." She said as she ignited her blade.

"No!" I screamed as I pulled my gun out and shot at her.

I hit her in the shoulder and watched June and Lux run to me. Lux grabbed me and we ran out of the palace. We made it to Saw's base and I saw June and Lux hug Maia. I felt my heart stop as I leaned against the wall.

"Good job." Saw said softly.

"The Seventh Sister will continue to come after them." I said softly.

"Not if we end her. I have a group of men ready to storm the castle and take Onderon back.

"You need more men, I have some friends who can help us." I said softly.

"The more the merrier." He said as he turned and walked away.

I pulled out my com and contacted Hera.

"(Y/n)? Where are you?"

"Onderon, I could use some help. We have a plan to take it back from the empire, but are low on men."

"I'll talk to Ahsoka."

"Let me know as soon as possible." I said softly.

"Hey is that (Y/n)?" A voice asked.

"Yes, we are taking about important stuff though, so you'll have to wait- Zeb! Give that back!"

Hera disappeared and Zeb showed up on my screen.

"(Y/n), Are you okay?" Zeb asked as I smiled softly.

"I'm fine. I was talking to Hera about getting some help on Onderon." I explained.

"We're on our way. Shouldn't take us long to get there-"

"Zeb! We are on a mission right now, and besides we have to talk to Ahsoka to make sure it's alright if we go!" Hera yelled.

"Do I look like I care? My girl needs help and if I have to go alone-"

"Zeb I can wait. We aren't attacking yet anyways. We have a week before our own men get here. So calm down and finish your mission." I said softly.

"As soon as it's over I'll be there. I promise."

"I know, I'll talk to you all later. I love you all." I said before I hung up.

"Some friend you have there." A voice said.

I quickly turned around and saw Lux smiling at me.

"He isn't a friend, he is family." I said as I sent him a frown.

He let out a sigh as I pushed past him.

"I know you're mad-"

"Mad?! You abandoned me! You left me to fend for myself! I was twelve years old!" I yelled as I glared at him.

"You were dangerous. You nearly killed Maia! I had to send you away to keep my family safe!" Lux snapped.

"I thought I was part of your family!"

I felt tears stream down my face as he looked at me shocked.

"I thought I was your daughter... I thought I meant something to you, but... you only took me in as a favor to my mother... I meant nothing to you, I mean nothing to you.... yet I still came back and helped rescue you.... a man who I meant nothing to." I said as I turned and walked away from him.

I made it to my tent and plopped down on my bed. I heard the door open and looked up to see Maia.

"You're not my sister." She said softly.

"I already know that."

"You never will be my sister, because I hate you.... because you have what I'll never get... Lux loves you. He had to send you away to protect all of us.... and I know he will be mad I did this, but.... your mother left this for you." She said as she laid a box down.

I looked at the box for a second before looking at her.

"I wish I didn't hate you, because... you really are amazing... and I hope they know that." She said before she turned and left my tent.

After a few seconds I stood up and grabbed the box. I went back to my bed and gently opened it. Inside was a note and two rolled up blankets. I opened the note and smiled as I saw a picture of Ahsoka and Rex holding baby me. I put it down and looked at the note.

Dear (y/n),

If you are reading this, then the Jedi have fallen. I had a nightmare of their distraction and was forced to take you to Lux while I tried to help save them. If you are still with him I failed and you are no longer safe with me. I told the Jedi you died, so that only me, your father, and Lux would know the truth. I'm sorry that I can't watch you grow, or teach you how to use these, but I think they can help you. I love you so much and I know you will do great things.

Your mother,

PS: these use to be mine, but I think they will suit you better.

I put the note in my bed and unraveled the blanket. I froze when I saw two lightsabers. I looked them over before standing up and ignoring them, to see their green glow. I smiled as I turned them off and clipped them to my belt.
