Chapter 27: Bellette

This is the photo he passed around. He is thirteen in this chapter!!!  Pronounced Belle- ette

Ezra woke up on his bunk not wanting to get up but he thought he had to... for her. He crawled off and sluggishly made his way to the kitchen table. He walked in to find everyone there with food and sat down in his seat. Deciding not to eat, he looked towards Hera and suddenly asked "Hera, do you think we can stop by Lothal?" Everyone looked towards him even though he only asked Hera and she replied after swallowing her food, "Sure Love, what for though?" He leaned back in his chair and nervously rubbed the back of his neck. "Ummmmm...." But with the glares he got from them, he finished what he was saying "It's kind of my older sister's birthday."
The crew sat there god-smacked at what they heard. Sabine said "You have a sister? Can we meet her?" Ezra's face suddenly dropped into a sad frown. "I wish you could meet her but you can't. She... died 5 years ago." They looked sadly at the teen in front of them. Kanan suddenly asked "If you don't mind me asking, can you describe her?" Ezra smiled and nodded. His face suddenly lit up, "Wait I think I have a picture." He stood up and walked out. They looked towards each other and Kanan whispered not sure if Ezra could here, "Man, he has truly lost everyone." They nodded solemnly. He walked back in and passed it to Hera. She smiled at the picture and looked up to Ezra, waiting for him to start speaking. He took a deep breath and started, "Well her mane was Bellette. She was about 5 years older than me. She would watch me all the time while my parents were broadcasting though. She was more of a mother to me more than my mum. And when the Empire came, things just got worst for me and her. My mum shoved me and her into a cabinet and she held me for countless hours listening till we couldnt hear anymore shots or voices, we came out. But we couldn't stay in the house though-" He was cut by Zeb, "Why couldn't you stay in the house?" Ezra nodded and continued "It was trashed and there was blood everywhere so we decided to leave.
After a year on the streets, she officially became the mother figure. She always gave me the food instead of herself and she was actually the one who found the Tower for us.But while we were on a mission for supplies, Troopers found us and they shot at us. We were able to get away but once I looked to Bellette, she had a shot in the stomach and we couldn't stop the bleeding. So she died in my arms a few minutes later. I carried her to the Lothal Cemetery and I buried her. She died at thirteen years old."

By the time he finished, The girls had tears running down their faces and the boys had tears in their eyes. Hera got up, not hungry any more, and hugged Ezra. He tensed but relaxed a few seconds later. Hera said letting go, "Of course we'll go. I'll go set course" She walked out of the kitchen to the cockpit leaving the others. Ezra suddenly stood up and said "I'll be in my room if you need me."

An hour later they arrived on Lothal and Ezra walked out of the Ghost to the cemetery. The crew staying behind to give Ezra space. He sat down at the grave. The rock head stone he made saying "Here lies Bellette Bridger, loving Daughter and sister" He looked to his left and saw his Mother and Fathers headstones he and his sister also made. He sat there for three hours talking about what's happened to him. He ended up laying his head on his sisters stone and drifting off to sleep.

The crew sat there worried. It's been four hours and Ezra still wasn't back. They all agreed to go out looking for him and walked out of the Ghost. They made it to the cemetery a few minutes later and walked in. They saw a slumped orange figure in the back and walked towards it deciding it could only be Ezra. They approached him carefully to not scare him but he stayed still. Kanan went behind the stone to face the front of Ezra. He smiled sadly when he found him asleep. But what made him want to cry was that he was crying in his sleep. He put his arms underneath his and picked him up gently to not wake him. Kanan placed the kids head on his chest and went back to the others and showed the crying, sleeping Ezra. Hera sighed sadly and looked back at the gravestone but that's not what caught her attention. It was the stones next to them. She whispered at them to look and they gasped. Ezra twitched in his sleep and brought them back to reality. Kanan rubbed soothing, gently circles on his back. He melted at the touch and his crying seemed to lighten up but their were still a few tears. They walked out of the cemetery and to the Ghost.

Kanan decided to put Ezra in his room (Kanan's) and tucked him in. But before he could walk away, Ezra death gripped his sleeve and whispered through his sleep "please don't leave me, everybody does" Kanan gently smiled at the teen and softly moved him over so he could lay down. Ezra immediately cuddled up to Kanan and death gripped his shirt instead of his sleeve. Kanan wrapped an arm around him and pulled the fallen blanket back up. Kanan leaned down and kissed his head and said into his hair "We'll be here Ezra. Just let us in and we'll be your new family. We'll protect you." He leaned back into the pillow and was about to slip into darkness but before he could he heard,
"I'll try Dad"
