Sabine Wren

Doubt and worry have been creeping up on Sabine for some time. Looking back, it started when Zeb and Ezra stole that TIE fighter. While it'd been a nice surprise for her, and she loved the new canvas to play with, she couldn't help the itch of worry that this was a hard target. Stealing food and supplies was one thing, but a military vehicle was practically a slap in the face of the Empire. One they wouldn't ignore.

Then they'd heard of the Jedi prisoner and while Sabine saw the value and moral obligation in trying to free her, they had still attacked an Imperial prison. Another hard target. And the whole thing had been a trap--the prisoner had been dead for some time--one they'd barely escaped from. Not a good day's work.

The final load in the chamber had been the mission to steal an Imperial decoder so that they could decrypt Imperial intel, which had meant the kid, Ezra, would be undercover as an Imperial cadet for weeks. They'd succeeded this time and Sabine had played her part despite all the bad memories the op dredged up, but she couldn't fool herself any longer. The crew's mission had changed since she'd signed up.

Instead of sticking it to the Empire and turning a profit, they were becoming an insurgent cell.

She trusted Kanan and Hera--knew their intentions were good--but she wasn't sure about whoever was giving Hera the intel and occasional directives. It wasn't that Sabine wasn't against more direct action against the Empire, she just didn't like the assumption that she was. If she was going to be a rebel, to actually attack military targets on a regular basis, she would prefer to be asked.

And she wanted to know who was giving the orders, and if they knew what they were doing. Were they competent or as flawed as their intel has been the last few missions? Could they be trusted? Did they have a goal in mind beyond "harm the Empire"? Wars were not won with such short sighted goals.

All of which lead to Sabine pushing for answers. Hera may not have liked the direct questions for who this Fulcrum was or her pushing to meet them, but Sabine would be damned if she was ever going to blindly follow orders again. Only thing was, Hera stonewalled her. Didn't give an inch or bit of data. Fine, Sabine had thought, before pushing her way aboard the Phantom to join Hera on her rendezvous with Fulcrum. If Hera wouldn't bring her in willingly, she'd force the issue.

Her plan didn't work, Fulcrum ditched as soon as Sabine revealed herself during their in flight communication, but it turned out to be a good thing as Hera would be dead now if she hadn't been there. Honestly, they both nearly died as the Phantom's fuel line was cut and hostile wild life at the supply pick up nearly overwhelmed them.

Funny enough, Sabine made a sort of peace with Hera regardless of not meeting Fulcrum. Faced with death, Sabine had realized she trusted Hera to have her back, which she hadn't really had since she had partnered with Ketsu. Hera explaining how they were a cell and information was kept from other cells to keep from being compromised helped as well. It only made sense. But really it was Hera telling Sabine she trusted her and would share whatever she could, when she could, that had earned her faith and trust.

She could wait for her answers and would keep fighting with the Ghost.
