Sabine rocketed onto the landing above her and ignited Ezra’s lightsaber when she saw the squad of stormtroopers awaiting her.
“JEDI!”, they yelled immediately, “Call for reinforcements!”
“Dank Ferrik”, she muttered, and then yelled, “Do I look like a Jedi!!!??”
She allowed herself a moment to grumble before she flew off and cut them all down. She was getting tired of people mistaking her identity. Seriously, her armour was bright pink, and clearly Mandalorian. How stupid could they get? Thinking a Mandalorian could be a Jedi…Tar Vizla had been the first and the last. This never happened to her when she had the Darksaber did it?
She hung around to see if the Empire’s reinforcement were going to show up and when they did she needed backup of her own. She called the only people she knew: Ryder Azadi and his crew. He was officially the Governor of Lothal now (well, not appointed by Coruscant but as official as it could get) and was very busy, but he’d never hesitate to help out a friend. He’d responded cheerfully to her call and was there in minutes. Any trace of the Empire here was bad news since they’d blown up the Dome and sent Thrawn to who-knows-where, so he was interested in that too.
“Sabine!”, he greeted her with a big smile on his face. “At it again huh? I ought to hire you officially.”
She smiled back at him from under her helmet and then realised she was under her helmet so she took it off. “Talk later, look…”, she said as she pointed to the incoming Imperial forces.
“Holy Banthas”, he said under his breath, “I haven’t seen so many forces here in years, what the hell happened?”
Sabine sighed and ignited her lightsaber, “They thought I was a Jedi…again…”
Rider slapped his palm over his face and responded, “Can’t you just stop using that thing? You attract enough attention as it is…How are you still alive?”
Sabine laughed at that, “Firstly, did you just ask a Mandalorian to give up a weapon? And secondly, I’m alive because I have a lot of weapons…Let’s get to work.”
She threw her helmet back on and took off. A flying Mandalorian dressed in pink, with a flashy Jedi weapon, reigning death upon the Empire…Perfect 🙂
