Ezra’s ears almost flattened from the high pitched squeal the girl gave when he landed. He winced, but kept his focus on the attackers instead. While Dash was engaging two of the dark siders, Ezra focused on the others. He had his saber out and channeled the Force to use a trick he had grown partial to- Plant Surge. While it wasn’t his specialty like shatterpoint, it came handy in a pinch.
Within seconds, vines tore through the ground and wrapped around the attackers again, toppling some and restraining others. Ezra whirled in with his saber, slicing off a limb before turning to the other to thrust a blade through him. While he generally avoided killing, Dark Siders tended to make things difficult.
“Ezraaaaa!” He ignored the starstruck cry of the girl that was ignoring Dash’s warning and attempting to close the distance.
“EZRA THOOORNE!”
Ezra paused just briefly, and it cost him. Even the quick glance allowed a grazing saber blow to the side of his arm. He hissed before turning to take out the last cultist. The rest of the camp was entirely too spooked to deal with the Jedi that took down their supposed overlords, so they all scrambled from the site.
The Thorne walked back towards Dash, scowling at the girl, “What is your deal?” He snapped at her, “If someone asks you to stay put, do as you’re told,” He said, rolling up a sleeve to inspect the damage on his arm.
The girl looked at Ezra, saw his injury, and burst into tears. Her wailing began to echo throughout the encampment.
