(Eric`s POV)

After entering Ponyville, The Rebels were looking around and by the expressions on their faces, they saw that there was no high space tech other planets may have. We were a quaint little town with an occasional monster attack every once and awhile.

“So um Eric, what did you before you came here?” Ezra asked as the ponies chimed in.

“I agree, I often wondered that myself but, I did not wish to offend you.” Twilight said in agreement.

“All will be said in due time, right now let us get these rebels a new Hyperdrive.” I responded as we approached the Golden Oaks Library. My ship was behind the library to not make others think of it as some new attraction, I also had no other place to put since I didnt want to destroy Roselucks garden she spends almost hours on ends working on.

“Alright here we are and there she is.” I said as I unveiled my Eta-2 Actis class starfighter. The crew did seem impressed and admired the ship as I began to remove the Hyperdrive.

“Actis class starfighters, haven`t seen those in a while.” Sabine said.

“I`ve seen these ships before, but were mainly operated by Jedi.” Kanan explained as I knew they would strike the truth soon.

“But if the ship is here than that must mean…” Ezra paused as Kanan completed his sentence. “A Jedi must still be here.” They then stared at me with a successfully removed hyperdrive in my hands. I was found out and I must reveal my true self.

“And so I've been found out, but as promised. One Hyperdrive.” I said handing over the module. Zeb took ahold of it as the others didn't lose their looks upon their faces. “As for the Jedi, Yes I`m the Jedi Knight upon this planet.” I confessed and wielded my blue lightsaber. This then changed the looks to joy.

“I cant believe it, another Jedi. Im sure the Rebellion would love to hear about this.” Ezra said enthusiastically. But I had to shoot him down there.

“Heh sorry kid, but I've outserved my purpose, I have a new life here and I don`t want to abandon it or my friends.” I motioned the ponies who smiled happily.

“But, we are in need of help and another Jedi on our side, We could be able to take down the Empire.” Sabine added as I stood my ground.

“Listen, I'm sorry OK, I don't wish to get involved with the Empire again, I managed to get lucky one time, but next time I probably won't be, but I could give you some old Republic outposts and bases that the Empire may not be aware of and If you`d like I can tell you my story of how I served in the Clone Wars.” I offered. They looked at one another and decided.

“Well we are need of some places to hide out and operate.” Hera said. Kanan and Ezra were still disheartened that I declined to join the Rebellion, but I don`t want to risk getting involved with something that would be my undoing.

“I'll get you hooked with some coordinates, but I'd recommend you get yourself settled first, these ponies are quite fond of you.” I mentioned as they had no other choice anyway and began to answer questions as I began entering some coordinates for old Republic bases and outposts.

"So Kanan, You are a Jedi like Eric and if so, are there more Jedi out there?" Roseluck asks first.

"Yes and I`m not sure who else may still be alive. All I want now is to train Ezra." Kanan responds.

"And what fascinating art on your armor, where did you get the inspiration?" Rarity squealed with more inspiration coming in and out of her mind.

"Oh, well it sort of just comes to mind." Sabine replied with a smile as she and Rarity conversed, while Twilight asked Kanan and Ezra about Jedi topics, Applejack and Zeb about strength, and Rainbow and Hera about flight.

Then I finally downloaded the Republic bases and outposts on a little drive. "Alright, its here." I called out as I handed it to Kanan.

"Thank you for everything Eric." Ezra said with appreciation.

"No problem, now About the Clone Wars." I began to talk about all the battles and operations I've seen during my few years of serving with the Republic. The hard part was about the last battle I was a part of, The Battle over Kashyyyk and how my master died by the clones we fought beside. But I couldn't shake the thought of that there was a cold dark presence looming as if something bad were to happen.

(Space over Lothal)

As the Agent Kallus was about to prepare his journey to catch the Rebels, he was foiled when the Imperial officer once more approaches him. “Um sir, A shuttle is requesting permission to board and one passenger is Lord Vader himself.”

Kallus was surprised that Vader was coming on such short notice, but nevertheless, he needed to be presentable. “Bring all Personal to Hanger 1 and grant the shuttle's landing.”

The officer saluted as he made his way to comms as Kallus headed down into the Hanger. Once there a large battalion of Stormtroopers, Imperial Officers, Engineers, and droids stood at attention as Kallus moved up to meet the shuttle as it lands inside the Hanger. Once the door opens, Lord Vader steps out to meet the Imperial Agent.

“Lord Vader, This is quite unexpected and on such short notice.” Kallus spoke as Vader looks upon him.

“I`ve been sent by the Emperor himself about this Jedi, He claims he may lead us to the location of Obi-wan Kenobi.” Vader responds in his trademark dark voice.

“Very well, We were just about to head toward the Rebels location and two of them appear to be Jedis as well so we can crush the Rebellion easily if we take out their main sense of hope.” Kallus stated as the Star Destroyer is joined by 2 more Star Destroyers

“You may underestimate these Jedi, The Emperor commands they are to be brought back alive and if you fail Agent Kallus.” Vader pauses and activates his lightsaber and points the tip near Kallus`s neck. “It will be your undoing.” He finishes as he retracts his red blade.

“Yes, My Lord, commence the jump to Hyperspace.” Kallus ordered as The 2 Star Destroyers jumped into Hyperspace and heading to Equestria where the full fury of the Empire, shall be unveiled to its remote inhabitants.
