Sorry it's been so long. Damn, it's been months! Anyway, I was stuck for a little while (a lot while) but, now I will start taking this and all my other stories seriously. One last thing, MeepGod07 I'm sorry if my mistakes ruin the story for you but, please keep in mind that I started writing this story almost three years ago. Its was my first story and written on a time when my writing skills were terrible. I don't really have time to go through the whole book and fix my mistakes, I have so I will just have to ask you to ignore them. Instead of focusing on the bad, please try to focus on the good parts of the story and please stop texting me all my mistakes, trust me there is a lot of them and it will be tiring for both of us. I don't want to make you angry and I appreciate you trying to help me but, I really don't need this kind of stress in my life right now. I hope you understand. Now, let's all enjoy the next chapter.

Ofelia felt uncomfortable the moment the words came out of her mouth. Everyone now was looking at her. Everyone was waiting for her to continue, to explain herself.

"I was with him" she repeated. She then extended her arm where everyone could see and raised her sleeve. There was a huge scar on her arm who looked clumsily stitched and half healed.

"This is where my chip was. All slaves have one. If you get away from the camp, the chip activates and...you're gone"

Ofelia didn't have to look at their faces to see the terror. She could feel the tension in the air.

"They drug us, so we won't be conscious while they put the chip on. We never know where it is. Until Ezra came. With the force he tracked both our chips and we pulled them out"

Ofelia heard a flinch. She didn't know who it was but she continued. It was easier now that she had already started.

"The plan was simple. Ezra was too injured to even walk, but he had a plan. He told me what to do. I would steal one of the pills they use to drug the slaves and I would put it on the slave Master's drink. After all, I was one of his...entertainment slaves"

A growl made Ofelia finally pick her eyes from the ground. She guessed it was the lasat. She smiled at the support. A piece of her though they'd call her...other things. That they would think she wanted this, that it was her fault. Because that's what she thought of herself. At least that's what she thought until Ezra came.

"The plan worked" she kept on "the Slave Master fell asleep and I ran. I ran to get Ezra. The guards were firing at us. I thought we'd die but then... the guard started levitating. I didn't know what was going on. But, I just kept going. It took us three days to get to the city" Ofelia remembered how hopeless she felt back then. When she thought they would both die. But Ezra never lost hope.

She remember what he told her back then. The sun was burning. She was wet with sweat. Her mouth was so dry, she needed water. She wouldn't make it.

"Leave me" It was so sudden, so silent and so calm.

"W-what?" Ofelia rasped out, turning to look at Ezra. His hair was wet and sticking to his face. Blood mixed with sweat covered his ragged clothes.

"Leave me. I can't walk. I'm useless now, a dead weight. Keep north, you'll make it to the city. Enjoy freedom for me" Ezra was smiling. He was breathing so heavily and his eyes were read. He was dying.

"No. No! I won't leave you. I'll never leave you! Well make it! Well make it together!" she said and kept walking and she drag Ezra with her. And they did made it. And everything was fine. Until now.

Kanan put a hand on her shoulder. Everyone was waiting. Ofelia seemed lost on her though. That was until Kanan got her attention.

"Please go on. I want to know more"

Ofelia smiled. It was so hard for her to go back.

"He wanted me to leave him back. He was ready to die so I could live. But I wouldn't let him. My whole life people were looking at me like I was nothing and then Ezra came into my life, and he made me feel like I was everything"

"We made it. We came here. Luke took care of him and me" Ofelia looked up to look, gratitude was written all over her face.

"I'd do it again, any day"

"All that is sweet and all but it doesn't really help. How are we going to find Ezra?"

"That's exactly it. This was not the camp Ezra and I escaped from. I think they took him to our old camp. After all, the Slave Master always took a liking to the specific location. It was remoted and he joked that no one would hear the screams"

Nobody liked the last part, but they all sat up.

"Okay, let's get back to the Ghost. We are blasting this fool out of existence" Hera said and then turned to Ofelia. "Lead the way" She said and extended her hand for her to take. Ofelia nodded and took Hera's hand and got up.

As they walked back to the Ghost Kanan was lost in thought. All the things Ezra went through because of him. Right then and there, he made a promise. He would never hurt Ezra again. He would always be by his side.

Right now though, he would not be able to be by Ezra's side if there was no Ezra. The thought made Kanan's stomach turn. A hand landed on his shoulder. Hera looked at him, her beautiful green eyes leaking comfort, fear and understanding. She didn't want to loose Ezra either.

"Don't worry love. We'll get him back" she was smiling and if it were anyone else, they would have seen nothing but a smile, Kanan knew better. Kanan knew how close she was to loosing it.

Ezra spat blood and grunted as the whip made contact with his skin once more. New scars were now on top of the old ones, the older ones and the oldest ones. Scars from his life on the street, scars from the missions with his friends, scars from his life on Tatooine, scars from his slave life and now, new scars of his slave life again. But this time, he had so much to loose. Much more than last time. No matter what master Kenobi thought, Luke was more than capable of taking care of himself and Ezra knew he would take care of Choper. Other than his two friends he had nothing else. He avoided Kanan and with Kanan the crew. It hurt him, but it was something he didn't have, so he couldn't loose. Now? He just got Kanan back, he had Luke and Choper, Ofelia and he would have the crew, if it hadn't been for-

Once again the whip hit him and this time he he let out a yelp as it re-opened one of his fresh wounds. Ezra let his head fall and for a last time he jerked against the restrains before going completely limp. He couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't fight. Not a second time. Not alone.

A hand rested on the side of Ezra's face, caressing his left cheek.

"Is my little toy tired?" Slave master asked, acting concerned . Ezra could tell by the huge smile painted on his face that he enjoyed every bit of the torture he so mercilessly imposed on Ezra. Ezra knew what he had to say, he wanted to say anything else, anything but that. And he hated himself so much for what he said next.

"A-A little master" Ezra couldn't take it. He was too tired to cause trouble. He was too injured to take another punishment.

"Aww, my little pet. I will let you rest. After all, I need you alive. And now that your friends are dead..."

"What?" Ezra couldn't believe what he heard. He wouldn't. There was no way. How? "You lie"

"Why would I lie to my favorite pet? I had trapped the old camp with explosives and movement detection on the cells. The moment they opened the door of all the cells all it took was the press of a button and...boom"

Ezra felt like his world had been destroyed. In just one sentence he lost everything he held dear. He was all alone now. Truly alone. And this time it was his fault. They died going after him. The Slave Master had left, leaving him alone in the complete darkness of the small cell. A few moments ago, it was the only thing he wanted but now he needed someone, anyone. He was too exhausted to search the force for his master and he couldn't focus through all the pain.

At that moment everything hit him. Everything that had happened to him up till now came to him and knocked him to his knees. The people he had lost, everything he had been through. What was with him and suffering? Was this his fate? Every time he thought he could find happiness just for something to come and take it all away? Ezra weeped and sobbed and yelled and wished for someone to come and rip his heart out of his body. He didn't want to feel anymore. At some point he fell unconscious and he hoped that he would wake up on his friends' arms. If not in this world, then in another. Little did he know that his wish would come true.

I hope it was a satisfying chapter. Thanks for sticking with me for so long. I know I haven't made it easy. I will start updating more frequently. May the force be with you and please stay safe.
