*burst through door*
WHO'S READY FOR SOME TEARS!
Okay but seriously, I did a three part of this way back and wanted of redo it. So here it is.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ezra P.O.V
I made my way to the river that's close to Yavin Base, a blaster in my hand. I was beyond annoyed to be honest. Jacob Mathew had really annoyed me. Jacob was a new member in the rebellion along many others, but has already gotten a reputation for badmouthing other rebels.

He once spread rumors about one rebels soilder and said that the only reason she joined the rebellion was because before she joined, she was poor and a prostitute, which I just found sickening. I knew that girl and she wasn't what he said. She was really nice and said the reason she joined was yes she was poor, but her brother was killed by empirials so she joined to avenge him.

Although I'm not one for revenge, I could see where she was coming from, but Jacob didn't care. He spread rumours about her and now...well...she took maters into her own hands and she is now with her brother.

However, everyone still thought that Jacob was a good person and when anyone goes to the higher ups about it, they always say without concrete evidence that Jacob does what people say, they can not do anything about it.

So why am I heading to the river with a gun in hand? Well because I'm heading to duel with Jacob. Why? Because he spoke BS about my crew. Sure he's talked BS about me to calling me "worthless", "unwanted", "unloved" and even saying "orphaned streetrat". I act like it didn't hurt me, but really, it was really upseting.

But he crossed the line when he spoke about my crew. Saying Sabine was a troublemaking mandolorian who sucks at art. Saying Zeb is a worthless soilder and terrible at fighting. They said Hera is so bad at flying that they are suprised that she hasn't crashed and died yet, but the worse was Kanan.

They said Kanan is a sorry excuse of a jedi and we should just hand him to the Empire so he can be killed and we can get some credits for it. Now that really angered me.

I looked all over the base for him and speak to him and some people told me he he was probably in the projection room watching something. So I walked in and sure enough, there he was and his two friend's watching something, I didn't care to notice what it was.

"Jacob" I spoke, but all I got was a 'shh'. "Jacob" I spoke again which again was responded with a 'shh' from him. "Jacob" I spoke for the thired time, with her responded with by turning around. "Shut up I'm trying to watch the show" he told me.

"Well you should have watched you mouth before you spoke about my crew though" I told him with anger. "Look I didn't say anything that wasn't true. Your crew are made up of scandals and it looks like you are to" Jacob told me as he got up from his seat and came face to face with me.

"So that's it?" I asked by his tamed and calmed response. He openly said that my crew and me were scoundrels and is fine with that. This only provoked me more.

"Well I'll see you on the dueling ground. That is, unless you want to step outside and followed now." I told him, anger lingering in my tone, but all Jacob gave me was a unimpressed stare. "I know where to find you, piss off I'm watching the show now" he told me as he waved his hand and walked away and taking his place back into his seat.

And with that, I left to get my wepon for the duel. I made my way through the hanger bay and up the Ghost's ramp,  climbing up the ladder and towards the hallway where are rooms where. As I made my way to mine, I bumped into Sabine who just walked out of her room.

"Oh sorry Ezra didn't see you there" Sabine apologized towards me. "No its okay, I wasn't watching where I was going either" I reasured her. Sabine then looked towards me and looked at me as if she was analysising me.

"What are you up to, you look nervous under that confident surface" Sabine asked me as she pulled back away about. I thought about telling her about the duel, but if I did she woukd probably stop me and it wouldn't happen. But she shoukd know, she is my firend after all.

"I'm getting ready for a duel against Jacob Mathew" I told Sabine. She gave me a worried glance, but yet there was some exsitment to it. "Oh so your having your first duel? That's a big thing, but why?" She asked me, her concern clearly on her face.

"Sabine, if only you had heard the shit he said about all about yous. I doubt you would have let it slide and I wasn't about to-". "Slow down" Sabine told me in a calm tone but I went on and on about the things that he said though.

I then remebered Sabine had been in many duels such as the one against Phen back a few months ago and she won. So I asked for her advice. "And came to ask you for advice for this is my very first duel, please Sabine" I begged her. I watched as she thought for a momont, considering the plead.

After a momont, she let out a sigh and placed her hands on my shoulders. "Did your friend attempt to negotiate a peace?" Sabine asked me, which I shook my head to. "Alright,  here is what you are going to do: stand there like a man untill Jacob Mathew is infront of you. When the time comes fire you wepon in the air, this will put and end to the whole affair" Sabine explained to me with confidence.

I took in her words for a momont. Aim my wepon in the air? I will be a dead man if I do that, for Jacob will then have a clear shot at me.

"But what if he decides to shoot? Then I'm a goner" I asked her, my voice clearly holding a hint of fear as I spoke. "No" Sabine spoke. "He'll follow suit if he's a man of honor, to take another person's life is something no man can shake. And this crew won't be able to take a heartbreak" Sabine told me as she let go of me and pulled out her blaster from her holster, passing it to me.

"Come back home once your done, take my gun and make us proud" Sabine told me as I grasped her blaster in my hand. It was lightweight unlike what I expected it to be. I looked at her and all she gave was a thumbs up, and I nodded and left the Ghost with the wepon in my hand and made my way to to the dueling ground.

So here I am now, trudging through the jungle as I made my way to the river. In the distance, I coukd make out the sound of a running river, meaning I was close, and I was right.
After a momont, I came to a clearing and who did you know, Jacob was standing with a friend of his waiting for me.

To be honest I was nervouse, but I couldn't show it. I took in a breath to calm my nerves down and made my way over to where they stood. Jacob spotted me and gave me a look of disgust, clearly not fond on seeing me actually coming.

"Ezra Bridger" he spat disgust dripping from his tone as he spoke my name. "Jacob Mathew, how was the rest of your show?" I asked him, also spitting disgust his way. "I'd rather skip the pleaceantries so let's go" he told me rudly as he turned around and grabbed his own gun from his friend.

"The duel will commence after we count to ten" I explained as we turned our backs to each other and began walking way from each other as he friend counted down.

"Look him in the eye aim no higher. Summen all the power you require, then slowly and clearly aim your gun towards the sky" I whispered to myself as I did just that.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven-" that was the last thing I herd before the sound of a gunshot and a burning white pain in my side  which was clearly becoming warm and covered with something liquid. I was frozen in place, my arm still raise in the air. I then felt my legs buckle under me and the last thing I remeber was falling to the ground as I watched a red pool grow under me.
