Ezra stopped the chair look at Sabine she had a very serious look that said I won't to protect you but I need to know.' He looked to the to see if he could find a way out but Zeb stood there with the same expression on his face. Ezra took a deep breath and slowly let it out he had to stay calm or a panic attack would set in. He looked to the both of them saying " I can't I'm to .... S-scared." Sabine and Zeb looked at each other then at Ezra watching as he pulled his knees to he's chest with his face in his knees. Sabine was about to get up but Zeb bet her to it he knee-led down to get eye level with him saying " we want to help but we need to know kid." Ezra looked up searching Zeb's face for a lie. " He's right you know we just want to help." Sabine said letting her soft side show for once. Ezra sighed he know he could trust these people he didn't why he just .... Just know he could. Taking a deep breath he said " I promised to tell Hera too go get her and Kanan." Zeb ran down stairs grabbing them by the arm running back up stairs" What's going on here?" Kanan asked hoping this was not one of Zeb's pranks but when he looked over at Ezra he know something much more serious was going on. Kanan walked over to Ezra putting a hand on his shoulder asking " What's wrong Ezra?" Ezra looked up at Kanan saying " You and Hera need to sit down because this is going to be a long story." There sit down on Sabine's bed they all looked at Ezra letting him take as much time as need to start his story " I was very young when my mother died but I can remember the day i just woke up my mom was going to take me to the park but when i went to go wake her up i started to shake her but she wonted wake up i just keep shaking her and keep shaking her then i remember that mom said to call 911 if something like this happened so did as she said called 911 and lady keep me talking to make sure no one was there to hurt me or anything so when the people got there just picked me up asking if i had anyone i could stay with i told them my dad was on a trip to where i didnt know at the time.

She looked worried she asked me what my name was i told her and ask her what her was she said it was Rya she was very kind but when i asked her about her scares she just avoided my question all together. After that day she would come over during the day and i didn't tell her about my dad but one day my dad was very drunk he lost it that day for some reason i was bet really bad i couldnt even make it to my room before passing out i was woken up the next day by Rya shaking she asked me what happened and i told her what happened but not who did it. she keep  asking but i told her that if she wanted to know who did it to me she would have to tell me where she got all of her scares first she told me that she got some from her mother and the rest of them came her being in a gang. i finally told her who did it and she called the cops got my dad arrested and i went in to the orphanage and couple of years later i end up here." Ezra finished his story looking down not know what else to do. Everyone let out a breath not knowing what to say. Then Hera got up hugging Ezra tight to her saying " I'm glad that Rya got you out there that way we could have you part of are family." Ezra smiled with tries in his he whispered " Thank you so much." He buried his face in her neck cry for the first time in a long time.
