《The Path of a Sith》The Sith Temple part 4
Advertisement
Ezra's eyes opened, not knowing where he is or how long was he passed out. He soon realised he was in an unfamiliar place. It looked like he was laying on the top bunk of a bed in some cabin. The walls around him were grey as he got up and stepped down from the bunk, still scanning his surroundings "Where in the galaxy...am I ?"
Ezra came closer to the door as it opened, revealing a hallway. Now the place he was in was starting to resamble the inside of a...ship ?
"Did Maul pick me up from the Temple..?" Ezra thought
Then Ezra heard talking echoing in the ship. He could not decipher what they were saying. But he decided to follow the voices. Leading him to a bigger closed door.
IN THE COCKPIT...
"Kanan..I know that you are worried about Ezra but that just happened once. It won't happen again" A gentle female voice was heard
"But Hera...Ezra used the dark side and ALMOST killed Maul. Im worried...he's losing his way" A Man's voice was heard by the name of Kanan
"Love, Ezra willl be okay. You thought him and we deeply care about him. Nothing bad will happen" The female voice was Hera. Kanan remained silent muttering "I hope so"
WITH EZRA...
"Why are they talking about me...?"Ezra thought
But the raven haired boy didnt realise he started getting too close to the door as he was leaning on it. The door suddenly opened causing Ezra to fall inside the room with the people he just heard "Ow...". Ezra's eyes widened as he immedietly looked up at the two figures that were now in front of him. A man with a ponytail named Kanan and a female Twi'lek, Hera. They were the people who were talking and now Ezra was right there in front of them not knowing what to say so he just laughed nevously.
"Um Hey Ezra"Kanan said crossing his arms. Ezra was taken a back "Who are these people ??" the boy thought. But he had to give an answer so he muttered "Hi..umm...K-Kanan"
"So...about today....."Kanan said with clear hesitation in his voice.
"I just got here! I don't know what happened before!"Ezra thought. But again he had to answer, to not seem suspcious. He had to know more about these people. He did not trust them.
"Yeah?" Ezra said as confidently as he could as Kanan proceeded "On the mission.. you used the dark side so I was just wondering if you are doing okay. You know what you did was not the Jedi way right ?". Ezra was completely taken a back. "Me..? a Jedi..?" Ezra thought. With a lack of words Ezra said in a cocky tone "Well obviously, I'm a Sith in training"

"Your a what?"Kanan thought he didnt hear him right but the expression on his face was saying he heard it just....he was trying to reassure himself. Ezra immedietly noticed it "Blast it, wrong choice of words!"
"Sorry nevermind" Ezra managed to say very quickly as he felt the need to get out of there, to avoid raising more suspicion. He muttered "See you later" and went out of the cockpit. As he was passing through the hallways he was confused. How did those people know him..he didnt know them at all ! But there was a feeling deep inside him of being...safe. Of things being..right.
"Who in the galaxy was that man...?"
As he was walking another cabin, Ezra heard spraying coming from the inside. Ezra raised an eyebrow and got closer to the door. Again making the same mistake of coming too close so the door opened. Inside the cabin stood a girl, she had colourful dyed hair and apparently she was drawing something with spray paint. The entire room was painted completely, it was very cheerful and colourful.
"Oh Hey Ezra"The girl said. Ezra was once again shocked at how these people knew him.
"Um..hey"Ezra said. "What brings you here?" The girl asked looking over to the boy with a smile. Ezra was suprised at her gentle voice. Like she knew him for a long time.
"Well..I heard spraying sounds and went to check out where it was coming from" Ezra said with a lack of words, hoping he said the right thing.
"Well obviously my room, don't you know me?,I'm Sabine Wren. The Explosive artist" The girl by the name Sabine chuckeled "I don't know you"Ezra thought annoyed
"Yeah... I'm gonna go then" The raven haired boy said already getting annoyed by the fact all these people knew him but he had no idea who they were. The mystery surrounding all this was getting on his nerves. He stepped back as the door to Sabine's cabin closed and he continued walking down the hallway "Why does everyone know me ??. This is getting irritating". Suddenly a grey and orange droid started coming towards Ezra. As the droid rolled by he commented mockingly"Bleep-bloop(Why so frustrated Ezra?)". Ezra rolled his eyes and went into the same cabin he woke up from. Thankfully he remembered where it was. He entered the cabin and said "Even The droid knows who I am!". But something was different inside the cabin. There was another person there, laying on the bottom bunk.It looked like it was sleeping. A creature that looked like a Lasat. Ezra stood frozen "Another person ?" he thought. Suddenly the Lasat spoke with his eyes still closed.

"Kid you wake me, you die. Right after the Lasat said that, the door behind Ezra was heard opening and the same droid from before rolled in, sending a electricity bolt through Ezra's body. Ezra turned around to the droid and was about to lift him up and throw him againts the wall with an angry look. But then the he noticed that the droid was ready to set another bolt of electricty so Ezra bent down to avoid it. But as he did, the bolt hit the sleeping Lasat, causing him to fall from his bunk. The droid chuckeled as Ezra looked at the Lasat waiting for his reaction. "I shouldnt use the force to avoid suspicion...if he tries something I'll just run" Ezra thought
The Lasat got up giving a very angry look to the teenager and the droid. In the last attempt to save himself Ezra pointed at the droid next to him "It's his fault!"
"I don't care who's fault it is..I'm gonna finnish you both !" The Lasat yelled getting closer to them. Ezra knew it was time to run. He ran out of the cabin with the droid following him as the Lasat was now chasing them. As Ezra was running, not even knowing where he was going he passed through a door and ended up in a room with a table and a couch (common room). There stood a man with a ponytail, Kanan. Next to him was the Twi'lek female was sitting, Hera. And finally the girl Ezra met before, Sabine.
"Chopper, Zeb, Ezra you are late ! We have to discuss the new mission" Hera said looking at each of them as she said their names. Ezra followed her gaze and came to the conclusion that the droid was Chopper and Zeb was the Lasat. Suddenly the Lasat by the name of Zeb rolled his eyes and angerly saying "Ugh, Fine. You two survived this time but next time..I'll end you" while looking at Chopper and Ezra. The teenage boy gave an idiotic smile as confirmation.
"Alright, we have to steal some important imperial info for The Rebellion...."Kanan started explaining the mission but Ezra was completely suprised "A Rebellion..?" the boy said confused. Sabine looked at him with a raised eyebrow "Um yeah.....? You know the Rebellion againts the Empire..?"
"Ezra are you sure that you are okay ? you've been acting weird" Hera asked gently
"Oh um..I'm fine..I was just kidding" Ezra answered her awkwardly. Kanan glanced at the younger boy but quickly focused on explaining the mission.
"So as I was saying..we have to steal some secret Imperial info from a Star Destroyer. There is an Imperial shuttle at the rebel base. Me and Ezra have stormtrooper outfits. Sabine, Zeb and chop will act as prisioners. We will get inside the base and get that info. After we have it Hera will blast us out. Everyone got it ?". The crew nodded except Ezra. He seemed like he understood the mission but he was focused on something else.
"Ezra?"Kanan called out. "Yeah...sure, okay"Ezra said as he was taken by suprise because the older man called out to him. Kanan rised his eyebrow at the teenager. He suddenly focused and closed his eyes. Ezra noticed but didnt do anything.
"Okay everyone to their cabins and get ready"Hera said
The crew nodded. But Ezra got confused "I have a cabin?"he thought to himself.
"You do Ezra"Kanan opened his eyes. As Ezra looked at him, with a suprised look. The older man just answered his question without Ezra actually saying anything. "Wait What...? How can you...?" Ezra asked
"Haven't you been listening to any stuff I told you while we were jedi training ?" Kanan said with a sigh
"J-Jedi training..?!" Ezra said completely shocked. He didnt know what else to say. How was he now suddenly a Jedi ? Sabine noticed his shock and came up to him "Um...I'll just take Ezra to his cabin..."
"Hey, It's my cabin as well!"Zeb added and started walking with Sabine and Ezra as they went out of the common room leaving Hera and Kanan alone. Hera turned around to Kanan with her eyebrow rised "What just ...happened?"
"....I don't know" Kanan answered clearly concerned and confused.

8 202Reborn Into My Novel
What if you lived in the world of your own creation? As fate would have it, our dear amateur novelist, Ellie, was reborn into the world of her fantasy novel after falling asleep at her computer. Bewildered as she was, the first person that she met was the protagonist of her novel. To add salt to the wound, it was right before the tragedy that decimated his village as per his backstory. Will Ellie save the village (and herself) to risk changing the fundamentals of her novel? Will she instead let the story run its course and leave everyone in the village to their deaths? Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive. Kthxbye. ps: Thanks for even reading this trash work pps: You’re not trash for reading this trash work btw ppps: Thanks I love y’all so much Shout out!

Will was a normal guy in his mid twenties, living in small town America. He was relatively aimless. Then he got struck by lightning. Waking up reminded him why falling asleep in strange places had stopped being a pleasant adventure for the next day, years before. Then, the crazy started. Life would never be the same, but he wasn't aimless anymore. Plus, you know, super powers are cool. Warning: There will be swearing and casual conversation about subjects that might have some people clutching their pearls. There will be dirty jokes. There will not be graphic depictions of sexual activity, or harem shenanigans, as I'm making my mother read this. That would be very uncomfortable.
