Chapter 6
It had been a very long day, no questions about it. Everyone had finished their jobs, sate some food for dinner and were ordered to return to their cells for the night. Kanan walked in to his shared cell to see the teenager stood by the sink, cleaning his face with the dirty tap water "hey kid, how you feeling??" the man asked; Ezra turned around and smiled "I'm okay, thanks again for the save". The kind gesture was returned "I told you, there's no need to thank me as I'd do it in a heart beat". Kanan sat down on his bed, removed his shoulder guard and boots whilst the boy lent against the the sink.
He was clearly deep in thought "...Kanan" the man looked up "yeah kid??" he could tell something was bothering his young friend. "...How did you save me exactly??" Kana instantly stopped what he was doing and turned all of his attention to the kid "em...what do you mean??" all Ezra did was repeat his question. Kanan just said "I tied a rope around myself, climbed down the mine until I reached you and grabbed onto your top" this seemed to annoy the boy as she folded his arms "I'm not stupid Kanan, you were too late to grab me...the rope snapped and I fell" he paused "I was falling to my death when...I don't even know!! You somehow managed to pull me up which touching me" it clearly frustrated the teen.
The man sighed, he knew Ezra was a smart kid and would work it out eventually "okay Ez...I'm going to tell you something that you must promise not to repeat to anyone" this startled Ezra momentarily before nodding "okay, I promise...but it's not like I can tell anyone anyway" he stated "no friend, remember??". Kanan motioned for the kid to sit down which he did, taking a seat next to the man on the bed "when you fell...I used...I used the force to save you" it appeared this didn't help "what's the force??" Ezra asked with confusion before some form of realization hit his face "wait!! Is that what the Jedi, Sith and Inquisitor's use?!" he had remembered some strange past encounters and something his parents once told him many years ago.
"Yes, it's what they use" Kanan was indeed surprised by the question; another popped into Ezra's head "which...which one are you??" this confused the man and he asked what he meant "which one are you?? Jedi, Sith or Inquisitor??" now understanding what the boy meant, Kanan couldn't hold back a small chuckle "I'm a Jedi, don't worry". The two spoke about this for a while until Kanan asked a question "how do you know the difference between a light and dark force user??" Ezra's gaze fell to his lap "because...I know what a dark user is because....I've met both before" he explained "and since you're nice and don't harm people but save them, you must be a Jedi".
That was some concerning information. All of a sudden, the head guard could be heard shouting at the prisoners that it was lights out; the cells were locked. Ezra attempted to climb up to his bunk but failed miserable "how about you sleep on my bed tonight?? I'll have top bunk this time" Kanan offered earning a nod and smile "I think that would be best, thanks". They both lay down in the beds "night Kanan" the man smiled as he got comfortable....well as comfortable as possible "night Ez".
