As three ventors exited hyperspace over courasant with reznov at the helm of the one named the ravager. The many battles the guardians ships faced out gunned out numbered would only amount to more imperial ships tallied up they've taken. "Prepare for atmosphere refueling and keep a quarter of the munitions ready incase things don't go well." Reznov ordered over the bridge to the other ships.

In the continental Ezra was requested to visit Winston. As he walked he found where he was supposed to meet the manager and pressed the two large doors open revealing a fire place and a very expensive lounge area with a glass table in the middle. "Ah my boy." Winston greeted as he moved the wood around In the fire. "What is it Winston?" Ezra asked cautiously sensing through the force of ill intent. "Nothing to be concerned about Bridger, take a seat." Winston replied with getting moving to the couch while motioning for him to sit. Ezra took a seat across from Winston, "Your parents were legends in their own time... even jango fett ran into a few times and by their mercy alone he was able to live." Winston said with a smile. "My parents were able to make the most public known bounty hunter and clone template tremble, wow that's impressive." Ezra responded back chuckling cuz he's friends with boba fett and a few clones. That's when his communicator beeped a few times the senate was in recess and getting back in action now. "Good luck Ezra and Ezra here's a file on more activities your parents were involved in fighting against not just the gangsters, mega corporations, corrupt politicians but the fought a group in the far depths of the unknown regions known as "The Convent"
Ezra grabbed the data pad from Winston's hand and saw names as the prophets, brutes and elites groups and they were in the business of specially glassing planets over unknown tech and genetic alterations to people , this made him angry and sick to his stomach. "Thanks Winston." He said getting up and headed through the doors, as he left John cane up beside him. "John." Ezra greeted, "mr.bridger." Wick greeted back. How may I help you?" Ezra asked the assassin, at the response of the question wick pulled out a folder. "Some more war criminals down on the lower levels I did some digging but didn't have the man power to take them out." Wick responded handing Ezra the file which Ezra started looking through, they were financial backers of the galactic empires research division. "Whatever they were working on was so important they had to go into hiding after Endor immediately." Wick informed him as they went to the elevator, "would you mind joining us for this operation Mr.Wick." Ezra asked , "my pleasure to Join you." John replied as they walked beside each other towards the elevator doors. "I'll inform you once we're done with these politics." Ezra replied back with a smile as he stepped in the elevator and pressed his floor.

A hour later Ezra and Sabine were walking beside each through the Senate building to their pod. "Ezra! Sabine!" A voice yelled catching their attention they turned around Anakin Skywalker and his son Luke ran up to them. "Hey guys." Ezra replied both parties sporting smiles. "Finally your back from the war efforts." Luke commented slugged his arm. "It's not over yet we're after Grand admiral Ray Stallon and we got information on a new organization with trafficking and forcing people to fight their battles." Ezra replied back with a frown and the information got a growl from Anakin. "You're doing the right thing though." Anakin said in support of this operation.
Once they reached their senate pod luke spoke "May the force be with you." Before disappearing into the crowded hall ways. "That's good to see the grand master is settling in well." Sabine commented, "ATTENTION ATTENTION!" The voice of Mon Mothma yelled out get the Senate buildings attention with a silence coming over it. "Order of business the Guardians of the republic under the command of Ezra Bridger!" The vice chancellor yelled over many boos and cheers split the room. As camera droids panned both the chancellor and Ezra without his helmet on but still on the rest of the armor beside him was him was Sabine. "The war is over but The Guardians have gone unregulated not answering to no command above Ezra Bridgers command no accountability!" "No need for the special forces in a time of peace."She said looking at Ezra with a sneer. Cheers rang through the building then Ezra responded "people of the galactic republic my ancestors fought the Sith empire after the battle of korriban a group of survivors of Jedi and republic solders formed the guardians covering the galaxy learning from the best military, warriors and strategic minds in the galaxy to fight the sith empires war machine... they fought sith inquisitiors hand to hand killing many on the fields of sacked Alderan when the republic forces were struggling and by their actions they gave Sa Til Shan's Jedi and solders under her command to hold and eventually secure the planet back... also chancellor I remember I saved your life from grand admiral Thrawn when your own security detail was slaughtered." Ezra said and a silence fell over the building crowds outside the building were watching and across the galaxy in cantinas and many other buildings, "the guardians faced odds that took months for your republic fleet and saved many new republic men and women by the hands of the Empire such as the battle of Kuat drive yards where I lead a small team to take out the high command of the battle, the new republic was already struggling after the four months of a stale mate battle and before that the battle of Scariff where the chances of securing the Death Star plans were thin but we got it done." Ezra added, up on the upper levels Luke , Leia and Anakin were watching events unfold, "disbanding the guardians of the republic will never happen." Anakin said lowly to his children, still sad missing his wife so they could be a family. "It'd be stupid too they were the very reason the rebellion sprung from the galactic empire so fiercely." Leia commented remembering the times Ezra's determination inspired his men and friends to make the impossible possible. Up roars by Senators supported the guardians they succeeded without rebel commanders they made it possible for the new republic. "You Ezra Bridger never reported to rebel high command while at Yavin ether though so reckless?" Mothma asked him , "you had rebel commandos try to kill us after freeing mandalore and you called it a unimportant matter when one of the strongest allies to the rebellion was gonna be wiped out." Ezra responded angry. The crowds of the republic people were stunned that the chancellor the head of rebel command betrayed their finest ally. Anakin was stunned such a thing happened and he looked at Leia and Luke and he saw his daughter's head was down "he's telling the truth, after mandalore she tried to kill them... so many rebels were killed by the action of false orders and jealousy." Leia told him which he noticed Luke's com link was on then they heard the uproar towards the chancellor out right disgusted with her actions. Once it happened like shut off his com the angry curses through the building was a understatement, New Republic military through the highest and lowest ranks were always divided on their untethered allies, now she was no different then Papaltine. "Order order!" The vice chancellor yelled out after a few minutes the room silenced. "Our chancellor hasn't fully been honest to the people!" Senator Tua yelled getting a lot to agree. "The vote on mon mothma stepping down or not will be voted, thank you General for bringing up this matter of distrust." Vice chancellor chersie said and Ezra and Sabine moved their pod back to its original position and waited and waited. A half hour later the votes were announced... Mon Mothma must resign no political position she shall hold for the rest of her life. This news brought smiles to the couple's faces and left the senate the prosecutors that were on lies smoldering in ashes.
As they made there way outside they noticed new republic shock troopers rushing in. "Secure Mon mothma for treason." The captain ordered.

Across the galaxy ones who supported the Senator who ran from being hunted by the Emporer was no different then him. As they waited a LAAT descended to the landing pad and opened up with his men ready to bring him back to their hotel stay. "Rahhhh!" Got their attention and they turned to see chewie, Leia , Luke, and Han ran up to them. "Congratulations you scoundrel." Solo said with a laugh , "karma's a bitch isn't." Sabine replied chuckling as they turned to see a cuffed Mon Mothma being escorted by eight shock troopers visibly pissed at her. "A new era for the republic has begun." Luke added with a smile. "As much as I'd like to stay we have a operation to handle here still hope we could stay longer." Ezra told them which was ended by them giving good byes and strong hugs. "Happy Hunting kids." Han told Ezra and Sabine as they stepped onto the gun ship and it lifted off and with a roar of the engines it sped off into the busy city planet.
