"WE NEED TO GET EZRA BACK!" Zeb scowled to the top of his lungs as he clawed the back of his head, growling in frustration. "THOSE BUCKET-HEADS KRIFFING CAPTURED HIM!"
"We know, Zeb, we know," Hera tried to console him. "but he was sent pretty far. We would need to get back to Commander Sato and Ashoka to tell him the news before proceeding with a mission—"
"I DON'T GIVE A KRIFFING DAMN, HERA!" Zeb roared out. "WHAT IF THOSE DAMN IMPERIALS ARE TORTURING THE HELL OUT OF HIM?!"
"Calm down there," Rex placed a hand on the Lasat's shoulder. "It's alright. He'll be alright,"
"HOW THE KRIFFING HELL WOULD YOU EVEN KNOW THAT?!" Kanan joined in the argument, gritting his teeth at the clone. "MY PADAWAN IS CAPTURED, FOR FORCE'S SAKE!"
"With the Kalikori," Cham added with a sigh. "Slavin took the Kalikori with the boy,"
"Actually, Father," Hera bit her bottom lip, confronting the older Twi'lek. "Ezra had the Kalikori the whole time,"
A moment of silence followed after her words left her lips. Cham's eyes widened in both shock and confusion.
"What do you... What do you mean, daughter?" He finally found his words as his eyebrows furrowed.
Hera didn't reply. She just glanced over at Zeb, whose eyes widened as realization dumped over him like a bucket of water.
"That Kalikori..." the Lasat felt himself fall into a swirl of emotions at their Captain's words. "EZRA'S Kalikori... that was YOUR family Kalikori, Hera...?"
"And you KNEW it the whole time?" Kanan was beyond shock, blinking at the female Twi'lek with wide eyes.
"Not EXACTLY the whole time..." Hera fiddled with her fingers before letting out a sigh. "Look, the moment I saw Ezra's Kalikori, I knew that it looked familiar, but I thought it was just a coincidence. I didn't know that our Kalikori and his Kalikori were the same until I didn't find our Kalikori on the last place we left it,"
"That's when you realized that the Kalikori that his father gave him was yours," Kanan concluded, his expression still screaming in disbelief.
"His father?" Cham was now more confused than ever.
"Yes, his father," Hera nodded. "It's the same one who just gave an order to take him to his ship,"
"Wait, WHAT?!" Zeb's eyes widened in bewilderment. "Are you... Are you saying that..."
"Yep," Rex gave a nod. "We just faced Grand Admiral Mitth'raw'nuruodo,"
"Mitth'raw'nuruodo... is HIS FATHER?!" Cham's jaw dropped. "AND HE HAS OUR KALIKORI?!"
"EZRA'S Kalikori," Hera corrected.
"Well... that puts us at ease," Kanan let out a sigh. "If Mitth'raw'nuruodo has Ezra, there's a possibility he might not be in danger,"
"Kanan, his father thinks he's dead," Zeb opposed.
"There's always hope," Rex spoke in agreement.
"But we can't be too careful," Hera warned them.
"Don't worry, Hera," Kanan assured her. "My bond with him through the Force is still strong. I'll be able to sense if something bad's happening to him, and we'll be there to get him out,"
