A Christian Padawan

Chapter 1: When It's Sunday

"Has anyone seen Ezra?" Kanan asked, looking around the common room. It's late afternoon, but there's no sign of Ezra anywhere aboard the ship. 

"I haven't seen him since this morning," Hera replied. 

"I thought he be back by now," Zeb comments drily. 

"Wait, what?!" Kanan exclaimed. 

"Zeb, what are you talking about? What did you do?" Sabine asks as everyone looks at him. 

"I didn't do anything!" Zeb cries. "I saw him leave the Ghost with his backpack and not taking his lightsaber with him. And I did call after him saying he was forgetting about it, but he told me he wasn't going to need it for today." 

"Did he saw when he was coming back?" Sabine questioned for everyone. 

"I didn't ask," Zeb looked down at the floor. "Didn't think he'd be gone for this long." They were quite for a few moments. 

"Does anyone else notices it?" Sabine said, breaking the silence. 

"Notice what?" Hera asks. 

"It's Sunday," she remarks. 

"Okay. And?" Kanan said, not seeing the significant of the day from being a pure atheist. 

"Ezra's been with us for about a few weeks now, right?" Sabine says rhetorically. "And has anyone else noticed the pattern Ezra's playing?"  

"Where are you going with this?" Kanan questioned once more. Thinking his padawan may be doing something without his knowledge. 

"It's Sunday," Sabine remarks again. "And when it's Sunday, Ezra always vanishes for the whole day every week. Maybe he's Catholic or something." She paused. "Sunday is considered their holy day." 

"We'll have to ask him," Hera said calmly, but Kanan growled. 

"Catholics." The Jedi's face was tight and filled with hate for the religion. He left the room with rage coursing through him. The trio looked at each other, and a gut feeling reminded them something they didn't tell Ezra about: Kanan's hatred towards Catholics.
