My Padawan

Chapter 4

Ezra's POV:

You never know how bad it is to wake up until you're waking up to an angry droid beeping and banging on your bed. Ugh Chopper. Stupid droid won't let me get my beauty sleep (not like I need it). "Chopper. Get out." I screamed at him. He just gave a grunt and rolled out of my room. I couldn't go back to sleep so I went to the kitchen.

I walked into the kitchen and stopped in my tracks when I heard that Kanan and Hera were both awake and talking. I crept closer and listened from the other side of the door. "Hera. We need to stop continuing missions for now. For Ezra's sake." What? What does he mean by that? "Kanan, I just don't know what to do." Okay now I'm seriously confused. "Just Hera, the Inquisitor is after him and I can't risk losing him." Oh stormtrooper this is going somewhere. I could tell with the force that Kanan was going out of the kitchen so I made a dash to get back in my bed.

"Ezra. I saw and felt you." Great. He caught me. "Oh um hi Kanan..." I tried to say nonchalantly but by the look on his face I could tell he didn't buy it. "Ezra I know you were listening to me and Hera." He stared right into my eyes and if looks could kill, I would be six feet underground. "I'm sorry Kanan. I didn't hear all of it though!" He looked at me hard. "You heard enough Ezra. I think it's time that I explain to you." I could tell something was troubling my master. "Just tell me Kanan. It's okay." I reached out and patted him to signal that it was okay.

"Well Ezra. I had a vision that you were taken by the inquisitor and it was just terrible." I could tell Kanan was breaking down. "It's okay Kanan. I'm right here. I'll be safe as long as I have you." Even when I tried to reassure him, something was still troubling him. "Ezra you don't understand. What if I'm not there to help you? What if I fail at mastering you? What if... I lose you?" By now Kanan was sobbing. "Don't worry Kanan I'll always be here to annoy you. And you are the best master a padawan could ever have." "But." "KANAN YOU ARE THE WORLD'S GREATEST MASTER AND I AM PROUD TO BE YOUR PADAWAN!" I yelled. I don't care if I was loud. I needed him to understand that he needs to stop bringing himself down.

Kanan POV:

My heart swelled when you told me he was glad to be my padawan. I can't let anything happen to him. He is the one thing that keeps me attached from going rogue. He is the sunshine that brightens up my dark and lonely night. He is the rain after a year of drought. He is the kindness that I thought was taken away after the clone wars happened.

He is my padawan. And I couldn't be prouder.

Gosh why did the Inquisitor have to choose MY padawan? Ezra is just a boy. It's bad enough that he was left alone on the streets for six years. Can't the Inquisitor just leave him alone?

I need some air.

I walked outside and sat down to meditate.

Soon I was returned back to life when I heard Ezra yelling and running towards me with something in his hand. "Kanan you have to see this!" His face was covered in fear. What's happening? I looked over to what was in his hand and noticed that it was a note. I grabbed it from him and observed it. One look from his face told me that I should read it now. I brought it up and read it. It said...

Dear Jedi,

Better watch out. I'm coming. Say bye to your padawan.

-You know who.

At this I couldn't feel anything. Soon my vision turned black and the ground rushed to meet me.

Heyyyyyy it's the author.

So I bet y'all want to kill me right now. Oh whale.
