Loud Rebel

Chapter 1

Call of the Force.

Yeah. I know. Another No Such Luck Fic. But hear me out. While yes, there are multiple episodes where Lincoln is unjustly tortures. Cereal Offender, Making the Grade, Green House, etc. But honestly, with the possible exception of Green House, NSL is really just the worst of the bunch and is Lincoln's lowest possible point. Anyway the primary pairing hear will be Lincoln and Sabine not sure if I'll add Harem elements. I'll play that one by ear. Also, for obvious reasons, I'm aging Lincoln up by a few years. Well, anyway... Let's kick it up!

SWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSWSW

Deep above the atmosphere of the planet flew what was by the standards of the people of the planet was a large space ship that had a small triangular shuttle craft fly out of it and fly down to the planet below.

(Meanwhile)

A young boy around the age of fourteen with white hair clad in a pair of blue jeans, white sneakers, an orange shirt, and a black leather jacket who was carrying a green backpack.

"Where to go?" The boy asked before laughing slightly. "Come on, Lincoln. It's not like you actually have anywhere to go." He sadly said to himself before listing off why every option he could think of wouldn't work. "Clyde's no good because of how much her pervs on Lori. Ronnie Anne's out because of Bobby. Even if he and Lynn st don't talk, uncle Logan's out. Pop Pop would just try to get me to patch things with Rita and the girls. Aunt Ruth... ugh." He said.

Through recent turns in his life, the boy, Lincoln Loud found himself traveling alone and as was made clear that he had nowhere he could go. Suddenly, Lincoln could feel something. As if he was being called, pulled towards something.

"What was that?" Lincoln asked himself before he began walking towards the source of the feeling.

After walking for a bit, he found himself in the middle of the woods only to see it was completely empty. "Okay, great. Now I'm officially going... crazy?" He asked as he looked up to see the shuttle. "No way!" He exclaimed in a whisper before he went to hide behind a tree.

As the shuttle opened, a man in a clearly military uniform exited along with a small group of men in white armor with helmets that had what could best be described as sun visors walked out.

"Comander. Report." A voice came over a com system before the man in the uniform pulled a cylindrical device off his belt.

"This planet has little recorces that would be of use to the Empire and its technology is practically non existent. It's positively worthless." The commander said.

"Very well. Return to the ship. We shall return to more civilized space. We have orders to move Wookiee slaves to Kessel.

"Slaves?" Lincoln asked in a quiet whisper before accidentally stepped on a twig. Suddenly all the men in white armor pulled out their side arms and began shooting as blue rings came from them. Lincoln was able to dodge the first several before one caught him in the leg and then he was shot in the chest before falling unconscious.

"What should we do with this one, sir."

"Bring him on board. He was able to observe us without being noticed. We should be able to refine that skill after some conditioning." The commander said as Lincoln's unconscious body on board the shuttle.

Some time later, Lincoln was stirred back in to consciousness as he felt his legs being dragged across the floor of the larger ship.

"So, we're heading to get the Wookies after this?" One of the armored men asked.

"Not yet. I hears some smugglers have been snooping for information about the hairy freaks. We're going to trap when they come here looking for them." The other one said.

Just then, Lincoln felt that strange pull again. Suddenly, the lights went off before a loud thud was heard and when the lights came back on, the trooper on his left was on the ground.

"What the?" The right trooper asked before being shot in the head with the left ones side arm. Lincoln then grabbed his backpack from the left trooper.

'They said something about smugglers.' Lincoln thought as he began running. 'They might be my best chance at... escape.' Lincoln said as he rounded a corner and saw a man wearing a green sweater and dark green armor over his right arm where he was his gun that he pointed at Lincoln.

"Woah woah!" I come in piece!" Lincoln called as he dropped the gun. He then felt that strange pull again and strangely enough could feel that the man felt it as well.

"What's your name, kid?" The man asked.

"It's Lincoln. These guys took me from my planet. I was just trying to escape.

The man could that there was no deception coming from Lincoln and lowered his gun. "Do you know anything about the Wookies on board?" He asked.

"There're aren't any. They said that they were going to pick some up after trapping some smugglers which I'm guessing is you." Lincoln explained.

"Then we need to get out of here. Pick up the blaster and follow me." The man said as Lincoln grabbed the gun and began running. "Spector 1 to all units. We flew right in to a trap! We need to go now!" He said.

"What about the Wookies?" A gruff voice asked over the com.

"There aren't any. Now get back to ship!" The man said. "Name's Kanan, by the way." He said.

"Good to meet you, Kanan." Lincoln said before the two rounded a corner to see a purple man with eyes that were simply green sclera and black pupils, side burns, a goatee, and stripes on his sleeveless arms.

'Don't freek out, Lincoln. You're in space. Aliens are to be expected.' Lincoln thought to himself.

"Who's the kid?" The purple man asked, revealing himself the source of the gruff voice.

"He's the one who warned me about the trap." Kanan informed the purple man.

"How do you know he's trustworthy?" The purple man asked before Lincoln shot a trooper who was behind him right through heart. "Okay. He's good." He said before the three of them were met by a dozen more troopers before moving quickly in to cover, Lincoln and Kanon raised their pistols while the purple man pulled out a strange looking rifle and all three began shooting. Lincoln did well and managed to take three of them. But unfortunately, he stayed out of cover to long one set of shots and was hit in his hand as his blaster was destroyed.

"You okay?" Kanan asked.

"Yeah I'm... LOOK OUT!" He called as someone in black armor with an open faced helmet that covered his blonde hair came up behind Kanan and Lincoln through out his hand just as the man fired on Kanan only for the man and the blast to begin moving at a crawl.

'It can't be.' Kanan thought before a series thick doors closed in a squares. "Come on! We need to move!" He called as they began running after he and the purple man took out the rest of the troopers. They kept running until arrive at a door until meeting a girl in elaborately full body armor with a helmet that had a T shaped visor and a small orange and white trash can shaped robot with a satalite dish on top of what could be called its head, uneven legs and black arms that were folded black arms on the front of its body and on the sides of its 'head'. "Hera! Get us out of here!" He called as the ship the five ran on to.

"I'll head to the Phantom." The armored girl said.

"We'll get on the guns." Kanas said as he and the purple man ran off. As he arrived at a turret, Kanan heard a beeping.

"What the hell happened?" A woman's voice asked.

"It was a trap. The Imperials were waiting for us." Kanan explained once more.

"You think Visago set us up?" The woman asked.

"Or just got some bad intel. Either is possible." Kanan said as he began shooting at a group of fighters with spherical cockpits and octagonal spaces where the wings would have been.

"It's just lucky that you were able to figure it out so quickly." The woman said.

"Luck had nothing to do with it Hera." Kanan said before taking down the last of the fighters in their way before the ship suddenly began moving incredibly fat through what appeared to be a blue void. "Wait there. I'll explain in a minute."

Meanwhile Lincoln was sitting on what could be called a couch in the ship's galley and was wrapping up his hand up.

"Sorry we don't have any Bacta for you." The armored girl said as she and the purple man walked to him, Lincoln being able to tell what 'Bacta' was by context. "Here. Let me help you." The girl said as she tied the bandages on Lincoln's hand.

"Thanks. I'm Lincoln Loud by the way.

'Weird name.' The girl thought. "I'm Sabine Wren." She said before taking off her helmet to reveal her hair which was died dark blue and orange and her brown eyes which Lincoln couldn't help but find beautiful The big guy is Garazeb Orreleuos, Zeb for short, and the Astromech is Chopper." She said.

"And this is Hera Syndulla." Kanan said, walking out with a green skined woman with tentacle like growths in the back of her head who was clad in an orange flight suit and white flight cap.

"Kanan told me how you warned him in time. Thank you." Hera said in a grateful tone.

"I couldn't just let you guys get killed." Lincoln said, thinking nothing of how he had also needed an escape.

"How, did you end up on that cruiser anyway?" Kanan asked before Lincoln went on to explain the events that had brought him to this point.

"You're lucky the bucket heads didn't kill you." Zeb said, not noticing the wince Lincoln made at a certain word in his statement.

"A planet that hasn't discovered Hyperspace travel. Almost hard to believe." Sabine said with her chin rested on her connected knuckles.

"Well. We should try and find a way to get you home." Hera said.

"What about the uh... the Wookiees? Weren't you going there to rescue them?" Lincoln asked.

"Well, yeah. But we have no idea where they are." Sabine said.

"Well, before they knocked me out, I heard the soldiers talking about a places called... Kessel." Lincoln said as the group went quiet. "And I'm guessing that's bad." He said.

"Slaves sent there only last a few months." Sabine explained to him.

"For Wookiees. It's even worse since they've spent most of their lives in humid areas. So in a place like Kessel, they'd be lucky to last a month." Hera said.

"Then we have to go." Lincoln said.

"We?" Kanan asked.

"There are people in danger. I can't just go home and ignore that." Lincoln said, gaining a slight smirk from Kanan.

"He's right. We don't have time to waste. Hera, set coarse for Kessel. The rest of you, prepare your gear." Kanan said as everyone left the galley, leaving Lincoln.

Just then, Lincoln heard what could only be described as singing. Entering almost a trance like state, Lincoln stood and began walking through the ship, the singing only getting louder as he came to and entered a small room. He then walked to the room's bunk and opened a droid on the side of it to reveal two objects. One, a cylindrical object that looked like the hilt of a sword, and the other a blue cube with gold lining. The latter object was the scource of the singing.

Lincoln wordlessly picked up the cube and began to examine it.

"I see, that you've found my Holocron." Kanan said as Lincoln turned around to see him.

"I'm sorry. I just heard this..." Lincoln began to explain before Kanan put his hand up.

"I know. The Holocron was calling to you." Kanan said as he approached Lincoln. "We have some time to before we reach Kessel. Take it to see why." He said before picking up the hilt and splitting it in to two parts before placing it on his belt and leaving the room.

Left in the room, Lincoln sat down on the bunk and I examined the cube for the next half hour. He noticed that there creases under the eight corners, inplying they could be moved. Though how, he couldn't tell. There didn't seem to be any switch or button to activate it. However something in the back of his mind was telling him that if he was calm and focused enough, it would open for him. So he closed his eyes and cleared his mind. As he did so, the corners began to turn and rise before the image of a bearded man in robes appeared before him.

"This is Master Obi Wan Kenobi." The man said, gaining Lincoln's attention. "I regret to inform you that our Jedi order and the Rebuplic have fallen with the dark shadow of the Empire rising to take its place. The message is a warning and a reminder to all surviving Jedi. Trust in the Force." He said before the door of the room opened and the corners of the cube lowered. Though they did not turn back in to place.

"We're coming up on Kessel." Kanan said, gaining a nod from Lincoln before he then stood up and exited the room, leaving Kanan to pick up the opened Holocron and smile.

Lincoln had arrived at the ship's cockpit to see that they were currently flying above a yellow planet.

"This is the first time I've seen a planet from the other side." Lincoln said in awe of what he was seeing.

"I'm just sorry it's of such a horrible place." Hera said before moving the ship deeper in to Kessel's atmosphere as Lincoln went back in to the galley before Sabine walked up to him.

"Here. You'll need these." Sabine said as she handed Lincoln a belt which contained one of the communicators and black and red pistol with a point coming down from just behind the front of the barrel. She then lead Lincoln to box filled with spheres of varying colors. "You should be able to fit about five or six on your belt. We have sonic, ion, incendiary, concussion, adhesive, and cryoban." She said as Lincoln realized the spheres wer grenades and he took one red incendiary, two dark blue cryoban, one green adhesive, and one cyan and yellow ion grenade.

"You think you can handle that blaster?" Zeb asked.

"My grandfather was a soldier. He tought me how to shoot when I was eight." Lincoln explained as he checked the sight on his blaster.

'Hm. That's a bit old.' Sabine mentally joked.

"Any quirks I should know about with this?" Lincoln asked while checking the safety before he ejected and reclipped the power cell.

"DH-23s have been known to pull a millimeter or two to the left from time to time. So be sure to compensate if it does." Sabine instructed, gaining an understanding nod from Lincoln as he twirled and holstered the blaster.

'Okay. I'm feeling a bit better about the kid coming with us.' Zeb thought before Kanan came in and told them they were making their final descent.

(Meanwhile on Kessel)

The man who Lincoln had mysteriously slowed down was walking next to an officer while looking at the chained hairy creatures walking in the other direction and slightly tightening his fist. Just then one of the troops hit one of the Wookies with the butt of his rifle and for a moment he resisted the urge to take the weapon he carried off his back and shoot the troopers.

"Agent Kallus?" The officer asked, getting the man's attention. "Do you believe those rebels will really be foolish enough to come here?" He asked.

"I..." Kallus was about to answer when suddenly, the ship that Lincoln and the others were on came through the clouds, taking out two out of three of the security walkers that were on the platform before lowering enough for Lincoln, Kanin, Sabine, and Zeb to jump out.

"Spector 1 to Spector 2! You've got TIEs incoming!" Kanan called as he and the others slid behind a crate for cover.

"I see them." Hera answered as she turned around and began leading the fighters away, leaving the ground team to worry about the several dozen troopers and the last walker.

'This could be a problem.' Lincoln thought as none of the group could get a shot off without running the risk of the walkers heavy guns taking them out and Hera couldn't deal with it for them because of the TIE Fighters.

"This is bad. We're pinned down." Zeb said only being able to manage a couple blind shots at a time.

"Wait a minute." Lincoln whispered as he pulled out one of his cryoban grenades and closed his eyes while cooking it. The then threw it backwards, the troopers missing it in midair so it flew true to its target, denitating in contact with the walker's leg. He then repeated the process with the concussion grenade, shattering the leg and making it fall on a dozen of the troopers.

"Not bad!" Sabine complemented as she took advantage of being able to shoot without the fear of the walker and was able to take out another six troopers.

"Yeah. But we still have to worry about the rest of those Stormtroopers.

"And if I were a betting man, I'd they're eventually going to try firing on the Wookies to draw us out." Lincoln said, voicing a concern they were all having.

"Then, we'll have to give them a target to focus on." Kanan said as he assembled the sword hilt.

"Are you sure?" Zeb asked as Kanan pointed to one of the crates.

"Just get those weapons to Wookies and give me some cover." Kanan said as he holstered his blaster and jumped out from behind the crates, effortlessly dodging the blasts from the Stormtroopers.

"What is he doing?" Lincoln asked.

"Just come with me and help get the shackles off those Wookies." Zeb said as he and Lincoln began moving the crate, taking out a few of the Stormtroopers before arriving at the Wookies as Lincoln pulled out a lock picking device he had been given.

As Lincoln got to work freeing the Wookies, Kallus was about to resurrect some of his troops to take him out when suddenly a loud whooshing sound followed by a humming was heard and he looked to see Kanan holding the sword hilt which now had a glowing blue blade coming from it. A site that filled Lincoln and the Wookies with wonder and the Imperials with fear.

"All units." Kallus signaled. "Focus your fire on... on the Jedi." He said as the troopers began shooting exclusively at Kanan as he used his weapon to deflect the shots away and more than a few back at the troopers, killing them.

As Kanan battled, Lincoln finished up unchaining the Wookies as the older ones took up arms and began giving Kanan cover as the younger Wookies were told to run to Sabine's location.

As Lincoln continiued through the Fire fight, he noticed one of the Wookie children was being chased away from the group.

"Zeb, I've gotta go help that kid. You good here?" Lincoln asked.

"I'm fine, kid. Go!" Zeb said as Lincoln began running, unknowingly catching the attention of Kallus who then began following him. "Spector 4 to Spector 1, I think the kid might need some help." He said, gaining a nod from Kanan, who had thinned out the Stormtroopers enough for his team and the Wookies to finish the battle.

Meanwhile, Lincoln had managed to catch up with the trooper who was chasing the Wookie child.

"HEY!" Lincoln called as the trooper turned and Lincoln shot his in the head. "Come on. Let's get you out of here." He said as he went to pick the kid up.

"Don't move, Jedi!" Kallus said from behind Lincoln who then turned to face him with his blaster drawn.

"There's that word again. 'Jedi'.' Lincoln thought

"What a rare find these days. A master and an apprentice." Kallus said. Just then, Lincoln felt that strange pull again and this time, he knew what if meant.

"Why focus on the apprentice when the master is right behind you?" Lincoln ask as he began cooking his adhesive grenade behind his back.

"Do you honestly expect me to fall for..." Kallus began to say before being knocked to the ground by a telekinetic push from Kanan before Lincoln through the grenade, trapping Kallus on the ground.

"Let's go. Lincoln said to the Wookie child as the two of them jumped over the Kallus and followed Kansan back to the ship.

A short while later, Lincoln and the crew of the ship he had learned was called the 'Ghost' were bidding farewell to the Wookies as they boarded a refugee shuttle.

"Hey, Kansan can I talk to you for a bit?" Lincoln asked, gaining a nod from Kanan who then led him to his quarters before he asked a question that had been nagging at him since he first heard the word. "What's a Jedi?"

"For over a thousand generations the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace in the Galaxy. But we we were betrayed by those who formed the Empire. Now, to my knowledge, I am the last of them." Kanan explained.

"And the Force?" Lincoln asked, remembering the message fro Obi Wan Kenobi.

"The Force is an energy field that is created by all life and it is very strong with you, Lincoln." Kanan said, making Lincoln recall the event on the ship and even how well he had been able to take down the walker.

"If the Force give me powers and you have it too, could you teach me to control those powers?" Lincoln asked.

"My training wasn't completed. But I would do my best to train you if you decided to stay with us." Kanan said, making it abundantly clear that the choice was Lincoln's alone to make.

"I have nothing to go back to on Earth and I know I can do a lot of good with you guys. I would be honored if you would train me." Lincoln said as he extended his hand out to Kanan.

"Then welcome to the crew of the Ghost and the rank of Jedi Padawan." Kanan said as he shook Lincoln's hand, accepting him as his apprentice.
