Kanan slammed his fist on the medbay door with a cry of frustration.
"We'll find him, Kanan," Sabine reassured. Sabine sat next to the bacta tank, Zeb unconscious within. "Just like we found you."
"This is different, Sabine," he said.
"You're right," Sabine agreed. "There were imperial records to follow when you were captured by the inquisitor. But with Maul-"
"There's nothing." Kanan turned, resting his hand against the door. Sabine sank in her seat, sadness overcoming her. She looked up at the Lasat floating in the Bacta tank. First Maul had hurt Kanan, then he had almost killed Zeb, and then took Ezra!
"Nothing." Kanan sighed, leaning his head into the door. Sabine wracked her brain, trying to remember anything that could give even a small clue as to where Maul might be taking Ezra. She remembered Kanan and Ezra coming back from Malachor. She remembered Kanan telling them how Maul had blinded him. She remembered the sadness she felt when she realized that Kanan could never see her art ever again. She remembered Hera crying silently so Kanan wouldn't hear her. She remembered Ezra shutting himself up in his cabin. She remembered Zeb doing everything to make the situation easier for them all. She remembered overhearing someone talking to themselves about the Siege of Mandalore⦠and Maul...
"You know," Sabine said quietly. "There might actually be something." Kanan turned his head toward the young Mandalorian.
"What is it?"
"Rex. I overheard Rex talking to himself when you guys got back from Malachor. I didn't want to intrude so I didn't hear much, but I know for sure he said something about Maul!" She stood up and smiled.
"All right, but how is that supposed to help us?" Kanan asked. Sabine started pacing with her hand up to her chin.
"Rex might know something about Maul that could tell us where he might be headed!" she said quickly. "I'll stay here with Zeb to make sure he's okay. You and Chopper-"
"We'll head back to base and talk to Rex. Are you going to be fine here?"
Sabine looked up at his blindfolded face. His head aimed straight forward, his face not tilted to look down at her like it always used to be. He didn't look at her like he used to. It was all because of Maul.
"Yeah. I just⦠I'm worried about Ezra." Her eyes fell to stare at the middle of Kanan's chest. She began to raise her voice. "He blinded you. He almost killed Zeb. He's more powerful than the inquisitors. Kanan, what is he going to do to Ezra?" Tears came to her eyes as she thought of the boy she considered her closest friend.
"I don't know, Sabine," Kanan said quietly. "That's why I'm going to find him before that demon can do anything."
