Hey everyone! Hope you're all having a Force-tastic day! This suggestion was given to me by my brother HowlSeeker. This is going to be a random skit. Anyways, let's jump right in!

"If one of you guys can fire back, I'm not gonna stop you!" Hera cried.

Typical run-in with the Empire. It's just one of those days...

I turned the cannons around and began firing at the swarm of TIE fighters behind us. I managed to take out three of them, but there was still a lot of them on our tail.

"Any particular reason why the Empire is trying to kill us this time?" Kanan asked.

"Let's just say it's just one of those days and leave it at that." Hera said.

"That's reassuring..." Zeb said with an annoyed tone.

Hera began shooting at the TIEs in front of us and took out a good amount of them. The Ghost then began to shake.

"Hera, we lost our shields!" Ezra cried.

"Great. Few more hits from these guys and we're done for... unless..." Hera said.

The TIEs soon began firing at us again and the Ghost began shaking more violently.

"Hera..." Sabine said.

"Come on boys, follow me..." Hera said.

I looked out the window and saw a swarm of TIE fighters behind us and in front of us. I then smiled in realization.

I know what she's doing...

When the Ghost got close enough to the TIEs in front of us, Hera swooped up and watched the TIEs behind us collide with the TIEs in front of us.

"Now, let's get out of here." Hera said.

With that, the Ghost quickly jumped into hyperspace. I walked into the cockpit and leaned over Hera's seat.

"That was some quick thinking, Hera," I said.

"No fighter can outrun me." Hera said.

"Preach to that notion."

I turned around to the door hissing open and watched the others come in.

"Chopper, how is she?" Hera asked.

Chopper warbled and buzzed.

"The Ghost took some serious damage. Shields need fixing and we need to stock up on some fuel." Sabine said.

"Well, let's land so we can conserve what fuel we have," Hera said.

"Where are we going to land, exactly? We're nowhere near Maitlyn, Lothal, or the Rebellion." Kanan said.

"That's what I'm worried about..."

The Ghost jumped out of hyperspace and a dark teal and green planet came into view.

"What planet is that?" Ezra asked.

I looked around and the others were staring at me.

"How should I know?" I asked.

"You've been to a lot of planets, Zel. Thought you knew what planet this was." Sabine said.

"Yeah, well, I don't know this one. I never even knew there were planets like this in deep space."

Still, why does this planet feel so familiar...?

We entered the planet's airspace and landed the Ghost. We stepped out of the Ghost and walked out onto the strangely colored grass. Giant trees towered over us and brightly colored plants as big as a person surrounded us.

"What is this planet?" Ezra asked.

"I have no idea..." I said.

"Chopper, how's the Ghost?" Hera asked.

Chopper whistled and beeped through Hera's comm.

"Fuel is almost down to nothing..." Hera said.

"So, we're stranded?" Ezra asked.

"Guess so..."

I looked up at the trees and tilted my head to the side. I walked up to one of the plants and touched it. It then began to glow a bright purple.

Why does this planet feel so familiar...?

"With low fuel, we can't even signal a distress call to the Rebellion." Kanan said.

"Great. Now what?" Zeb asked.

Then, there was a rustle in the bushes up ahead. I hovered my hand over my lightsaber just in case. Then, a serpent-like creature slithered out.

"What even is that?" Ezra asked.

Kanan didn't waste any time igniting his lightsaber. Then, a thought dawned on me.

"Guys, don't move," I said.

"What do you mean?" Zeb asked.

"It only acts on movement."

The creature soon faced our direction and let out a roar.

"Are you sure about that?" Ezra asked.

"Trust me..." I said.

The creature soon slithered closer to us and began coiling around us.

"Zel...?" Kanan asked.

"Shh!" I hissed.

The creature then stopped in front of me. Its orange-yellow eyes stared into my own. It growled at me and then slithered away. We all sighed with relief.

"That was way too close." Sabine said.

"How'd you know that would work, Zel?" Hera asked.

"I just... knew..." I said.

"Well, we better get the Ghost up and running again before that thing comes back." Kanan said.

"Without fuel, we can't really do anything, Kanan." Ezra said.

I walked over to another glowing plant and touched it. This time, it glowed bright pink.

Something about this planet feels so familiar, but I just can't put my finger on it...

I looked at the plant and saw that the plant was somewhat transparent. Inside was a bioluminescent liquid. I took out my lightsaber and ignited it through the plant. When I pulled my lightsaber out, the liquid began oozing out.

"What is that?" Ezra asked, walking to my side.

"Some type of glowing liquid... Sabine, can I borrow your helmet for a minute?" I asked.

"Sure." she said.

The Mandalorian handed me her helmet and I placed it over my head. I put down the scanner and scanned the substance. My eyes widened when I got the results.

"I think we might be able to refuel the Ghost," I said, taking off the helmet.

"How?" Kanan asked.

"This stuff is living ship fuel. The amount it will take to fuel the Ghost can fuel us for a full cycle."

"Whoa... That's a lot of energy." Ezra said.

"Now, if only we had something to contain it so the Ghost can refuel itself."

Then, we heard the roar of that snake-like creature in the distance.

"We better figure it out fast." Sabine said.

I looked up at a tall tree and Force jumped to the closest branch.

Good thing these branches are thick, otherwise it would have snapped.

I looked around to see if there was anything we can put that liquid in.

If we put that substance into any metal container, that stuff will melt it for sure...

I jumped down from the tree and met up with the others.

"Anything?" Ezra asked.

I shook my head no.

"Why don't we cut the entire plant and refuel the Ghost from its stem?" Sabine suggested.

"That could work... Kanan?" Hera asked, looking at her Jedi.

Kanan activated his lightsaber and cut the plant from the ground. More of the glowing liquid began oozing out.

"Let's roll this over to the Ghost to refuel it." Hera said.

Zeb and I soon began pushing the plant towards the Ghost and laid it on its side.

It's a lot heavier than it looks...

"I think this plant alone will refuel the Ghost entirely." I said.

"Let's grab some more for the Rebellion." Sabine said.

"Good thinking." Kanan said.

Ezra and I activated our lightsabers and began slicing the plants, soon rolling them over to the Ghost. Then, I heard a deafening cry in the distance. Suddenly, the snake-like creature jumped out. It then slurped up whatever it caught in its jaws. I quickly studied its body and knew exactly what it was.

"You're a Pythorn," I said.

"A what?" Zeb asked.

"A Pythorn. These creatures are very hostile and react to movement. They get its name from its snake-like appearance and the deadly thorns on its tail."

"What thorns?" Kanan asked.

The Pythorn whipped its tail and the tip of it was soon covered in long, black, rigid thorns.

"Oh... Those thorns..." Kanan said.

"But how is a Pythorn even here? These guys are only native to..." I began.

The answer hit me like a boulder to the head.

"Now I remember! This is Dunbarr. I know this planet because this is where Crowvern taught me how to use a lightsaber." I said.

I knew this planet felt familiar... Then this Pythorn is...

"Nagani!" I cried.

Instantly, the Pythorn stopped and stared at me. It lowered itself to my level and flicked its black forked-tongue.

"Nagani...? Is it really you?" I asked.

The Pythorn coiled itself around me and rubbed its head on my cheek.

"I don't believe it... It really is you..." I said.

I turned back to the Rebels to see their bewildered faces.

"So, let me get this straight... this hostile creature who will kill anything at the slightest movement... is a friend you made when you were a Padawan?" Kanan asked.

"Yeah, guess so. I'm surprised myself that I forgot about Dunbarr and Nagani." I said.

"Woah. She's really something." Ezra said.

Nagani then hissed at Ezra.

"Yeah... Nagani is a guy." I said.

Sabine and Zeb couldn't help but laugh at Ezra's mistake.

"I just got back from checking the Ghost. We're back in action." Hera said.

Hera then took a step back when she noticed Nagani behind me.

"A friend of hers." Kanan said.

"Got it. Anyways, Chopper's done fixing the shields, which means we can head back home." Hera said.

"And with the plants we got, we'll be able to fuel up all of the Rebellion's ships." Sabine said.

"Right... I have to go Nagani." I said.

Nagani made a purr-like sound and coiled around me, almost constricting me.

"I know, but I'll be back and visit, I promise." I said.

Nagani nodded and slithered away from me. He let out a loud roar before disappearing into the jungle.

"You sure know a lot of different people and creatures, Zel." Kanan said.

"Well, when you're a Padawan who traveled to different planets almost every month, you're bound to make friends with different people and creatures." I said.

The Rebels and I walked on the Ghost and sat in the cockpit. Hera powered up the Ghost and lifted it off the ground. We were soon in deep space, flying back to Lothal.

"Thanks, Zel," Hera said.

"For what?" I asked.

"If it wasn't for you knowing that the stuff in those plants was ship fuel, we would have never gotten off the ground again."

"Well, if it wasn't for Sabine's helmet, I wouldn't have known at all." I said, smiling at the Mandalorian.

Sabine smiled back and winked.

"Next stop, home..." Hera said.

With that, the Ghost disappeared into hyperspace.

Hey everyone! Hope you all enjoyed this part! Again, many thanks to HowlSeeker for this suggestion. I thought to make this into a little random skit, and I feel like it works out perfectly. I'm feeling like an episode based is an order. We will soon see what that episode is. May the Force be with You!
