Are you going for an original AU or a crossover?? Either way I'm not fussy :) I like the premise and it's quite a teaser. It gives a lot of questions - what time frame, how did Ezra get hurt, what about the others, what's wanted of him?
First fics are always the hardest, you're learning how to construct a story, what words and tone to use, whether you have the characters right or not. Even when you find your style (and recognise it, which can take some time), you end up setting your standards higher each time.
What I've learnt through trial and error is to know what it is you want to write from start to finish, because when writer's block hits - which it will unfortunately - the only thing that might help you get going again is knowing what scenes you need to write. And it's a lot easier if you know your characters and how they'll react to the situations you're going to drop them in. The writing style comes with practice and people giving you pointers on what works or not. They say you can't be a writer unless you read, so if you get tips on what works or not from the things you enjoy reading you'll do just fine :)
