3rd POV
Back at the base, the rebels celebrated another successful assault against the Separatists.

"Show those droids what we're worth," a rebel cheered.

"We must celebrate," Steela held her glass up in the air.

"With pleasure," Saw spun Steela up in the air. He put her down and Steela spread her arms out.

"Come here, you handsome senator," her and Lux hugged. Ahsoka seemed rather bothered at the sight of that. Her and Ezra were standing next to Anakin, Obi-wan and Rex, hologram form.

"Steela is born leader," Rex mentioned.

"And quite courageous, I hear," Obi-wan added. They rebels talked and cheered over the Jedi's voices.

"Ahsoka, remember what I told you about staying focused," Anakin said. Ahsoka was staring at the floor, with a sorrowful look.

"I can't help it, Master," Ahsoka didn't make eye contact.

"I understand."

"You do?" Ahsoka asked, surprised. She didn't expect her Master to have problems with feelings.

"I do. But try to remember, always put purpose ahead of your feelings," Anakin advised.

"This latest development will surely get Count Dooku's attention. He will respond harshly. They will stop at nothing to find you. You must adapt and continue to confront them in order to liberate Onderon," Obi-wan warned.

"We will," Saw said.

"And we shall win," Steela said, proudly.

"In that, I have no doubt."

"Now you must rally the people. You will need their support. Your ability to influence them will also determine your capacity to represent them not only on the battlefield but, off of it against your enemies, even within your own ranks. Your commitment will inspire others. Your conviction will lead to victory," Anakin lectured.

"After tonight's efforts, the people will be ready to follow. You will need a leader for them to rally behind," Obi-wan announced.

"We need to build on our momentum and continue our attacks to keep them off balance," Saw declared.

"We have to assure the people first. If we keep disrupting their lives, we risk alienating them," Lux disputed. "We have to gain their trust."

"I agree with both of you, we can balance both. We also need to recruit others to join us," Steela reasoned. "Onderon is ours. We will remind everyone and keep reminding them until we get it back."

The rebels cheered. Punching their fists and raising cups high in the air.

"All in favor of Steela as our leader, raise your hand," a rebels girl got on a crate. Everyone in the room raised their glass. (Even though she said hands ·-·)

"Okay, looks like it's been decided. You're the leader," Saw finished his drink and plodded out the room.

"Saw," Steela went after him. But, Lux grasped her wrist.

"Let him go. He just needs to blow off some steam. He'll be back."

She sighed and removed his hand, "I can't."

"Why?" Ahsoka quesioned as she passed her.

"He's my brother."

¤§¤§¤§¤§¤§¤§¤§¤§¤

Ahsoka and Ezra were talking to Anakin and Obi-wan.

The rest of the rebels have fallen alseep. It was late at night, a good time to discuss the rebels progress.

Ahsoka interjected their words.

"What did Master Windu say when he heard Ezra was alive?"

The room went silent. Ezra's mind couldn't think, he had forgotten all about him recently being found. He hoped that his Master would be glad to hear he's alive after two years.

"His reaction was quite happy if you ask me. He said he couldn't wait to see you again, Ezra," Obi-wan smiled. Ezra looked up at them with a grand smile. He couldn't wait either though, his training is behind, he didn't mind.

"Did he say anything else?" Ezra asked.

"Not really, he is busy with other tasks. He didn't have time to ask anything else about you," Anakin informed. Ezra's smile slowly went down but, he clung onto the last bit of happiness.

"I understand, Master Skywalker," Ezra answered from under his hood. Ahsoka didn't take that as an answer.

"How could he not ask anything else? His padawan, the padawan he has had for over four years, is standing here on Onderon safe yet, he didn't make an effort to say 'hello' to him?!" Ahsoka's outburst made Ezra jump a little. "He must have-"

"Ahsoka!" Ezra stood up facing her. Her angry face looking up to him. Even if she was on her tippy toes, she still wouldn't reach his height. "Master Windu has a lot of important things going on. He must attend them first. If he must and can wait, I can wait. I will not allow him fall behind schedule because of me. Besides, after what I've done," Ezra sat back down broken-hearted. "I don't think he'll be very excited to see me. Heck, I bet he doesn't even remember how look like."

Ahsoka sat down next to him, she regrets saying anything. Anakin and Obi-wan gave each other a gloomy look.

"Ezra, there is no need for you to blame yourself. Anyone would have done it at that point," Obi-wan cheered him up. But, it wasn't working.

"Yeah, anyone would have done the same. But, why wouldn't Master Windu recognize you?" Anakin agreed. Ezra deeply sighed, he hasn't taken off his cloak ever since they found him.

Because," Ezra pulled off his hood.

Anakin's and Obi-wan's eyes widened. Ezra's appearance was very different then when they last saw him. He has shaved his hair and it was slick back. They already knew that his outfit changed, he wouldn't be able to fit into his other clothes. His Padawan Braid was still there, the green and yellow intertwined in his hair with the red at the bottom. Yet, a new feature was added to his face. Two scars that ran from his left ear to his cheek.

"Ezra, are those lightsaber scars?" Ahsoka traced her fingers over the scars. (No, she didn't touch his face. To much of a weird move for Ahsoka to do @_@) She looked at them for a few seconds, it wasn't the only scar she has seen. Her Master has one over his eye. Ezra gently nodded. "How did you get them?"

"One word. Ventress."

~Sorry about not updating yesterday. I took a small break, hope you don't mind. I personally want Ezra's eyebrows, like come on!

They've been on fleek since season one and got even noticeable. Just look at the perfection Dave choose for his eyebrows, better than Kanan's, Hera's and Sabine's. He knew what was up, the curve at the end just kills me. 😍💕 I'm so weird I swear. Don't forget to vote and comment what you think 😄

Stay Sassy Like Obi-wan!
