In a fanfiction, Ezra's injury could lead to a power shift within the Rebellion. With him out of commission, others might have to step up and take on his responsibilities. This could cause some internal conflict as different characters vie for leadership or try to fill his shoes. Meanwhile, Ezra is struggling with his injury and trying to recover in time to prevent the Rebellion from falling apart or being defeated by the Empire.
Perhaps Ezra is injured in a trap set by an Inquisitor. His injury not only affects his physical abilities but also his confidence. His friends, like Kanan, would have to help him regain his trust in himself and the Force. They might go on a journey to find a special healer or an ancient Jedi relic that could aid in his recovery, all while being pursued by the Empire.
He could be kidnapped by a group of pirates who mistake him for someone else. These pirates are known for their ruthlessness. The rebels would need to negotiate with other pirate groups to get information about Ezra's whereabouts. It would be a story full of danger and unexpected alliances.
Ezra could be tortured for information about the Rebellion. The Empire would be eager to know Rebel plans and bases. His capture might also lead to the discovery of some of the Rebels' secrets if he accidentally reveals something under duress.
One possibility is that Ezra's connection to the Force becomes stronger. Ahsoka could teach him how to meditate more effectively, which would deepen his bond with the Force. This could lead to him being able to perform more powerful Force feats, like moving larger objects or sensing things from a greater distance.
Ezra being 12 in the fanfiction could lead to plots centered around his coming of age and facing challenges with a younger mindset. Maybe he has to prove himself despite his age.
Perhaps Sabine finds Ezra on a planet that is filled with dark side energy. Ezra has been struggling to resist it. Sabine has to not only rescue him but also help him cleanse the dark side influence from his mind. This would involve a lot of emotional and spiritual growth for Ezra, with Sabine as his support.
In the fanfiction, Ezra and Luke could form a strong friendship. Ezra could introduce Luke to some of the friends he made in the Rebels, like Sabine or Zeb. This could expand Luke's understanding of the different groups fighting against the Empire. They could also train together, with Ezra showing Luke some of the unique Force abilities he has discovered. And perhaps, they could even come up with a new strategy to take on the Empire's more powerful weapons or leaders.
His comrades would likely have to protect him more. Since he's sick, he becomes a liability in dangerous situations, so the others in the Rebels would need to step up and ensure his safety. For instance, they might have to fend off Imperial attacks while Ezra is recovering in a hidden base.
Well, in a lot of Star Wars Rebels fanfic, Ezra being sick often serves as a catalyst for emotional moments. The other characters like Kanan or Sabine would be worried about him. It can also create some interesting dynamics within the group. Some might be overly protective, while others could be more focused on the mission but still concerned. And it might be a chance for Ezra to grow in his understanding of his friends' care for him while he's in a weakened state.
Well, that's a matter of personal opinion. Just because someone might think Ezra is stupid in fanfiction doesn't mean it's a universal view. In the official Star Wars Rebels story, Ezra has his own growth and development. However, in some fanfictions, the author might be trying to explore different aspects of his character or create unique storylines that could make him seem less intelligent, but it doesn't represent the whole view of Ezra's character.
