Maul was definitely not going to be welcomed on the Ghost with open arms. The Twi'lek was leading Maul and Ezra to her ship. The Lasat was waiting for them, he snarled when he saw Maul, "What's he doing here?" Captain Syndulla looked at the Lasat, with a grim look, "In case you haven't noticed, Ezra's back, ignore the former Sith Lord, he's apparently here to 'supervise' Ezra." The Lasat turned his glare from Maul to the human, "I thought you went off with tattooed crazy. I enjoyed having a room to myself." Ezra looked at his feet, Maul growled a warning at the Lasat, who backed away. A moment later the Mandalorian appeared with the droid. She hadn't noticed Maul yet, "Hey Hera? I was wondering if you knew where the..." She trailed off when she saw the human and the Zabrak. The Mandalorian immediately reached for her blasters, but Maul already had them by using the Force. Ezra looked at the Vizsla girl, "Sabine, please don't hurt him! We're just here to talk." Maul smiled, "She couldn't harm me even if she tried." Wren glared at him. The droid warbled, "Is that the crazy Zabrak that deactivated me?" Maul looked at the Rebels around him, "May I deactivate that?" The Lasat, Mandalorian and Twi'lek answered simultaneously, "No." The Zabrak huffed, annoyed. Ezra was standing in the back, completely forgotten. Maul sighed, "Ezra wanted to talk to Jarrus, but it looks like you already forgot the boy. No wonder he wanted a break from all of this." The Zabrak had moved to stand by the boy. The Rebels looked momentarily guilty, until a voice interrupted. "Hera where are you? I can't find my lightsaber." The Jedi appeared from the ship. Ezra moved to stand behind the Zabrak, Maul was growling. The Jedi looked in the Nightbrother's direction, stiffening, he reached where his saber would be, but was not there. Captain Syndulla moved between the two Force-Users. "Nobody's getting in a fight on my watch. Kanan, Ezra's back and he brought a guest." The Jedi glared at where he thought the master and apprentice were, "So? Ezra wanted to leave us and become Maul's apprentice, and now he is. I say we just leave, before these two turn us over to the Empire." Ezra's eyes started to water, Maul pulled the boy close, bringing him into a hug of sorts. "Master Jedi, in case you haven't noticed, our apprentice wanted to explain why he went with me." Maul said, Jarrus was still glaring in the Zabrak's direction. The Mandalorian girl seemed confused, "Wait a minute, Kanan are you saying Ezra's working with Maul?" She asked, Maul sighed very exasperated. "You realize that you can just ask Ezra this instead of Jarrus if you want the truth." She ignored him, looking at the Jedi. Jarrus nodded in confirmation. The Lasat pointed his Bo-Rifle at Maul and Ezra. The Twi'lek immediately stepped between them, "Nobody is going to harm Ezra or Maul, as much as I hate to say it, Maul you should probably take Ezra back to your ship, while I try to sort this out." Captain Syndulla said. Maul nodded in agreement, he sat on a speeder motioning for Ezra to get on with him. Ezra was sobbing when the speeder took off, Maul needed to find a way to cheer Ezra up when they reached his ship.

For some strange reason I always make Ezra cry. Comments are appreciated. Until the next update!
