*Sabine's P.O.V*

   I heaved for air as the cold brushed against my skin. It was dark out and I lost Kanan two minutes ago. I finally stopped running to bend over and catch my breath. It was also a way for me to think were in this fudging neighborhood those two went! Seriously! It's so dark, I have no idea where I'm even at! Did the neighborhood's leader not pay his electric bill for the street lamps or something?!

I began to walk down the sidewalk while trying to get some kind of warmth back into my arms. I wish I would of thought of grabbing a jacket before running out the door.

  I can just hear Ketsu now: "You forgot to grab a jacket and flashlight before running out the door in the dead of night? That's like saying you mixed up your favorite shoes with banana peels and saying their your fav slippers."

It doesn't make sense but it's Ketsu logic, it never makes sense. I laughed at the thought of my silly friend. I wish she was here now to cheer me up. I could use a dose of weird with a side of laughter right about now. I just hope Ezra is doing okay.

*Ezra's P.O.V*

I am not okay. I am not okay at all.

   My mind still could not wrap around the thought of my dad not being my dad! Why didn't he tell me? Why did he keep it a secret? Am I just some toy to him? A toy he can abuse for his own selfish desire to "feel better"?

I'm such an idiot for believing his lies. Foolish. Stupid! Sabine was right a long time ago! I am a loser! One big joke!

   Bang!

   I sudden paralyzing pain shot at my leg, making me fall. I hit the ground with a hard thud that I was knocked out before seeing a figure walk closer to me.

   I slowly opened my eyes to feel a undesirable burning pain in my leg. I had to bite on my tongue to not scream in pain. The sound of a door opening and closing came before footsteps over to where I was at.

   My heartbeat increased and cold sweat slid down my forehead. A churning in my stomach made me feel sick and shutter with every inhale and exhale. A person came from the left side until sitting in the chair across from me. I recognized that menacing and steel-cold face anywhere. Kallus.

"Hello, Ezra. It's finally nice to meet you," Kallus blankly spoke. I gulped down my fear when noticing the gun in his pocket.

"Well...the feeling isn't mutual," I muttered, voice cracking a bit. I cursed in my head for sounding so weak in front of this murderer.

"What do you want with me?" I asked, glaring the man down. He didn't flinch or do anything really except stare blankly as if studying an animal. It was really creepy but I expect nothing from a psychotic guy.

   "Revenge," Kallus answered. I raised an eyebrow. Revenge? Why the fudge did I do to be kidnapped for revenge? I did nothing to this guy!

   "Tell me, child. Do I look familiar to you? Any resemblance of a past face...of course, you were only a baby," Kallus rambled on.

   "Oh yes, you were on TV with a mug shot and wanted for being dangerous," I said, sarcastically. Where all this courage came from, I would never know. Yet, the blonde didn't take it so lightly when he shoved the chair I'm in back onto the floor. I grunted when my head hit the hard concrete floor.

   "I bet you don't even know who your true parents are. What they did for a living. What they looked like in general," Kallus spat. I stinging pain shot through my heart as I looked away in shame.

   "Tell me, boy. Do you want to know what your real name is?"

   I froze at the question, thinking of the many possibilities of what my actual name is. Yet, those thoughts quickly drowned and made me feel worse than before. My whole life was a lie and now the truth is being told by a murderer.

   Kallus knelt down close to my face and I instinctively tried to get as far away as possible. His breath tickled my ear as he whispered.

   "Ezra Bridger, I killed your parents."

   I clenched my teeth and tried to get out of my restraints. This felt like torture. Mental torture. It reminded me of those days when I was treated like a punching bag. This felt worse though. I wanted to actually choke this guy for making me feel like this.

   My life was wrong and he's smiling and smearing it in my face like a joke. Is this what Sabine felt all those years? Feeling like her life was a joke because I made fun of her? Mentally tortured because of her own flaws?

   I regrettably growled from winding up here and all those years of...of bullying. Could you blame me though? I wasn't raised by a good guy. Who am I kidding? This was all my fault. I chose to bully her and make everything miserable just like how I felt.

   Now, I see the truth and so badly want to apologize.

"What does this have to do with me?" I asked after a long silence. Kallus stopped right in front of me and leaned in to the point our faces were inches apart. He reached out and dusted my shoulder before straightening keeping the same blank look.

"When an assassin is given an assignment, he must finish all of his work. I was not able to complete my entire job in killing all the Bridgers because of your parents. Now, I'm free and have what I need to terminate, get some money, and move onto the next assignment," he explained, smirking.

I gulped and glared at muttonchops with whatever courage I could muster. He pulled out a gun from behind him and examined it.

"Soon, this gun with be covered in the blood of the one who made my job more difficult than it should've been," he said, shooting the gun at a wall. I flinched in fear for a split second and my heart pounded rapidly against my chest. Everything slowed down and felt my life flash before my eyes.

This was the end for me. Do I really deserve to die? I've done some pretty bad stuff in the past but does death have to be the penalty for them? I didn't have a good childhood not a good parent figure but it was still something. He still raised and cared for me even after his little whims.

Then there was Hera and Sabine. They helped my life improve to what it is today. Did I really want them to not be apart of my family? Did I even feel remorse for what I was about to do to split two people who cared deeply for each other?

Guilt bubbled up in my stomach and a feeling I hadn't felt in a long time began to infest. My eyes burned and bottom lip quivered remembering all the horrible things I've done to lead up to now. I was stupid for bullying Sabine and trying to split Hera and Kanan. I was selfish for running out and not letting him explain. Now, this is the consequence for my actions.

I'm sorry, Hera.

I'm sorry, Kanan.

I'm so sorry, Sabine.

I didn't mean to be the bad guy.

"LEAVE HIM ALONE!"

I shot my head up after hearing grunting noises. There in front of me was Kallus being strangled by...

"...Sabine..." I crocked, surprised out of everyone, she came. Sabine Syndulla was trying to save me, her bully. I felt relief when she came but also fear that she is going to get hurt. Why didn't she call for help? Where's everyone else?

I felt useless tied up in this chair, unable to help Sabine fight the assassin. Yet, words could not describe how grateful I am to see her again.

   Kallus eventually got the upper hand and threw Sabine to the floor. She slid till her head was next to my feet. I wanted to desperately see if she was fine and beat up the man that did it to her but remembering my situation ruined it.

   "Little pests like you should be exterminated," Kallus spat through clenched teeth. Sabine rubbed her head and slowly sat up, the both of us helplessly watching the assassin pull out his gun. He aimed it at Sabine with a shaky hand and finger on the trigger, ready to pull. There was a crazy look in his stone cold eyes and knew that it meant no mercy.

   Bam!

   The first shot barely missed Sabine as it ricocheted off the floor not to far away. Kallus cursed under his breath before reloading the gun quickly. I did the best of my ability to free myself from the ropes but it was no use. Sabine was sitting frozen on the ground as she watched the gun raise again.

I knew he wouldn't miss this time.

My heart leaped when hearing a gun shot but I turned my head to look away. Then there was a grunt like a struggle. I slowly turned to see Kanan's buddy wrestling Kallus to the ground. From the corner of my eye, I saw Sabine sitting up and okay. A breath of relief escaped my lips.

Sabine's P.O.V

It's the motorcycle dude! Where the heck did he come from? Why is he here? He saved me!

A million thoughts raced through my mind at once when seeing the gun pointing down at me. Then a flash of a giant guy comes out of nowhere and beats muttonchops over here!

Like...WHAT THE HECK!

I snapped out of my thoughts and scrambled to my feet to untie Ezra. We weren't out of the clear yet until we are safe and muttonchops is behind bars...again. Hopefully, he'll stay there.

"I'm sorry," Ezra apologized, looking down shamefully.

"You didn't know this was going to happen-"

"No," he cut me off, "I'm sorry about everything, for bullying you over the years. It was childish of me to keep it up for as long as it went and...I'm sorry."

I smiled a little, "Apology accepted, now let's run for our lives and call 911."

We ran to the door before muttonchops skid in front of the door and blocking our way. We slid to a stop and scared could not describe how I was feeling at the moment. The blonde was heaving, a black eye bordering his eye and hair a mess from when it was nicely tucked back. His gun pointed at us with intense eyes.

Where the flip was motorcycle dude? If he dead? I didn't hear a gunshot.

"You thought you could escape?" Kallus cackled crazily with bulging eyes. He aimed, resting his finger on the trigger. I closed my eyes tightly.

Bam!

I snapped them open when feeling not pain. My eyes quickly averted to Ezra who was alright and slowly opening his eyes. Then I faced Kallus, confused when seeing blood beginning to stain his clothes. His arm went limp and the gun fell out of his hand before falling to the ground.

"Ezra! Sabine!"

I turned to the sound of my mother's voice, seeing her and Kanan running up to us. That's when I saw the gun in Kanan's hand. He saved us! I ran over to my mom and we hugged each other tightly. I buried my face in her shoulder before remembering the reason why we were here in the first place.

I turned to see Kanan slowly approach Ezra but the teen still seemed betrayed. Just as Kanan was about to get closer...

Bam!

Time froze as Kallus got his last victim.

"KANAN! NO!"

"DAD!"
