Hogwarts Rebels

Kanan Jarrus

The door opened.
Ezra and Sabine got a good look at Kanan.
He was a tall man with his brown hair tied back in a ponytail.
He wore grey pants, a long sleeved shirt and boots.
He had cyan coloured eyes and a goatee. He also had thick eyebrows.

"You must be Miss Atama?" He said.

"That I am. These are the two kids. Ezra and Sabine Bridger" Miss Atama replied motioning to the two children.

"Hello" Ezra said.

Sabine smiled at Kanan who returned the expression.

"Nice to meet you" Kanan said and crouched in front of them.

"You two looking forward to coming to a new home?" He asked.

"More then you know" Ezra replied.

Kanan smiled and stood again.

"Well. We'd​ best head off. I promised Hera I'd get back as soon as I could" Kanan told them.

"Who's Hera?" Ezra asked curiosly.

"My wife" Kanan replied.

"Nice meeting you" he added to Miss Atama.

Ezra and Sabine picked up their bags and followed Kanan out the door.
Ezra clutching the Firebolt as if afraid Miss Atama would rip it from his grip.
Such amazing sights and smells meet Sabine and Ezra as they followed Kanan to his car.

"Wow" Ezra muttered staring up at the moon and stars.

"You two ever been out here at night?" Kanan asked them. Seeing their amazed faces.

"We hardly go out at all. Miss Atama forbidded it" Sabine replied.

"What? You've never been outside? What about when you go to school?" Kanan asked in surprise.

"She wouldn't let us do that either. We picked up our learning by reading the books round the orphanage" Ezra said.

Kanan felt his heart melt for these two children.
They'd clearly had a rough time in the orphanage. He promised himself that he would make their lives better.

"Just to let you two know, I have an older son called Zeb" he told them.

"What's he like?" Sabine asked.

"To be honest. He's a nice, kid, just don't get on his bad side."

"Understood sir" Ezra replied.

Kanan raised a brow.

"Why'd you call me that?" He asked.

"Miss Atama told us to call you that" Sabine said.

"That's what she said. Well, from now on, you can either call me dad or Kanan okay?"

There was definite kindness in his voice.
Kindness was something the two Bridger siblings didn't hear much.
They instantly knew they liked Kanan.

"Okay" Ezra smiled.

They reached a blue mandataire Toyota.
Kanan helped them into the back and started up the engine.
Backing up, they drove from the orphanage.
Ezra and Sabine watched it as the car turned and drove out of sight.
They couldn't believe it.

They were free.
