The God-Queen's Reign
Vignette: Reunion

When Kanan first met Ezra Bridger, he'd thought she was some snot-nose brat. Of course, his opinion had been colored by the fact she'd managed to steal some crates from under his nose (she'd been so successful about it then). But in the course of only a few hours, much less days, she'd managed to crawl under his skin and stay there. He and his crew had been unable to be rid of her, and in the end they hadn't wanted to.

She quickly became part of them.

He did his best to be a teacher, despite the fact he'd never become a Jedi Knight and was in no way qualified to teach anyone, much less a rebellious teenager like her. But together, they'd stuck it through and tumbled through the teachings with one another.

He was glad that Ezra had been a quick study in most of the things he tried to teach her, and she had helped steadily keep up with the things he'd taught and had almost forgotten himself. She'd even reminded him a bit of Bastila Shan, a figure he'd admired in the days where he used to study the history of the Jedi. And in turn, he'd come to admire his Padawan, who was loyal and brave, determined and strong, caring and kind.

She'd become so important to him.

This person in front of him, Kanan couldn't recognize. Not from the twisted painted lips, the malicious glinting eyes, or from the dark attire that hugged and shadowed his Padawan's figure. The red lightsaber hummed menacingly in her hands.

And yet, he did know this person and he wouldn't give up on her. No matter what Ahsoka, what anyone said. If someone like Kallus was hanging on, then so would he. Because he remembered what the other man had told him, and for once, he was glad that the other cared enough.

Kanan snarled at the ISB Agent, warningly holding his lightsaber in front of him. Kallus looked back blankly at him, and the man's lack of emotion pissed him off.

"She's not gone," he said suddenly, catching Kanan off guard and irritating him at such vague talk. "Ezra's still there."

At that, Kanan froze. He knew this could be a ploy to make him let down his guard, but after what he'd recently heard about Ezra from Ahsoka, he couldn't help wanting to listen.

"She's still there, deep down inside," Kallus was suddenly eager, well as eager as he could be. "If anyone could bring her back, it's you."

And despite how he usually disliked the notion, the rumor that Kallus supposedly had a soft spot, had cared a little too much about his Padawan –at this moment, he was grateful for it, for Ezra still had someone in her corner while she was stuck on the other side, that she still had someone that believed in Ezra and not Enyo.

Even if he'd hated the thought of it before, he was thankful for it now.

Ezra sneered at him and Kanan smiled sadly at her.

"I'll bring you back, Ezra. I know you're still in there. I'll never give up on you."

The flash of confusion and uneasiness that went through her reassured him and strengthened his resolve.

He knew then that he'd die first before giving up on her, and that was probably a very likely outcome in the end.

Kanan would have no regrets.

A/n: Something sort of light, after the past heavy chapters, huh? I'm sorry I haven't been consistently working for this fandom, mostly due to lack of motivation and interest in some of my other stories. I'll try to update some more, and even updated "Sundome" and "Chronicles of E. Bridger." I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter and the reappearance of Kanan! Please review, as I really appreciate it and they help motivate me!

Anon reviews:

1. Anon: Aw, thanks! I was really looking forward to writing Vader and Ezra, and show the beginning of their partnership that's sort of hinted in in the first chapter. I'm happy you liked it and thanks for tell me how you felt about it, as I was really eager to know how it would come across to everyone. Thank you as always!

2. Guest: Thanks a lot!

3. Guest2: Thanks! I got really into some sad and depressing parts, didn't I?
