Some time later, the leader of the Ghost crew, the Jedi Kanan Jarrus, was captured by the Empire. After the encounter, the crew received missions from Ahsoka, operating as Fulcrum, though only the owner of the Ghost, Hera Syndulla, knew Fulcrum's identity or any information about the Rebellion.


R2 recorded much of his time with the crew and, once they were returned to Organa, presented the senator with his recordings. Organa had sent his two droids, R2-D2 and C-3PO, to handle the weapons, and the droids encountered the Ghost crew. One such cell, Ghost Crew came to Organa's attention after they successfully stopped an arms deal involving illegal T-7 ion disruptor rifle. The Rebellion, led by Organa and Ahsoka, founded rebel cells throughout the galaxy and secretly worked to feed them missions to undertake against the Empire while maintaining all cells' low contact between them in order to avoid Imperial crackdown.

The Rebellion was loosely formed some time after the end of the Clone Wars, in which Supreme Chancellor Palpatine-secretly Darth Sidious-declared himself Emperor and transformed the Galactic Republic into the Empire.
