The whole crew would be in shock. Kanan was an important part of the team. Sabine, for instance, would feel a sense of guilt, wondering if there was something she could have done to prevent his death. Zeb would be solemn, and the group's dynamic would change completely. They would have to find a way to move forward while still mourning Kanan, and it would be a long and difficult process. Their hope and morale would take a big hit, but they might also find new strength in avenging his death or continuing his legacy.
The emotional impact on the other characters would be profound. For Chopper, even though he is a droid, he has been around Kanan long enough to have a connection. He might act out in different ways, like being more aggressive or unresponsive. The younger members of the Rebellion who looked up to Kanan would be disheartened. His death would be a reminder of the high stakes they are all facing. The characters would have to find ways to support each other through their grief, which could either strengthen their bonds or cause further rifts depending on how they handle it.
The fanfiction 'Farewell, Kanan' is extremely emotional. It deals with Kanan's sacrifice and how Hera copes with it. The raw emotions of loss and love are palpable throughout the story. Another one is 'Hera's Broken Heart' which focuses on Hera's feelings after a near - death experience of Kanan. It shows her vulnerability and the depth of her love for him. 'Remembering Kanan' is also very moving as it shows Hera remembering all the good times with Kanan after he's gone.
In 'Star Wars Rebels', Kanan's story is quite interesting. He was a Padawan when the Jedi Purge happened. Throughout the series, he not only trains Ezra but also forms a strong bond with the rest of the rebel crew. His journey includes rediscovering his Jedi identity and using his skills to fight the oppressive Galactic Empire. He also has a complex relationship with Hera, which adds depth to his character.
One great Kanan x Ezra fanfiction is 'The Bond Beyond the Force'. It beautifully explores their master - apprentice relationship. It shows how Ezra grows under Kanan's guidance and the deep emotional connection they develop. It has some really touching moments, like when they face a difficult trial together and have to rely on each other's strengths.
Kanan and Hera are fan favorites for fanfiction because they represent hope and leadership in the Rebellion. Their story in the show has many emotional moments that fans want to expand on. For instance, the way they support and trust each other during difficult times makes for great material for fanfic writers. They can write about how their relationship might have started, or how it could develop further in unshown scenarios.
Kanan's death in fanfiction makes the remaining characters grow in different ways. For Chopper, it could mean being more protective of the others. Zeb might become more solemn. The whole group might also find new sources of inspiration from Kanan's sacrifice. They may remember his teachings and use them to face greater challenges. His death can be a catalyst for character development, pushing them to be stronger and more united in their cause.
There's 'The Adventures of Kanan and Ezra: Untold Tales'. This one is full of exciting escapades. It's like filling in the gaps between the episodes of the show. It has a lot of banter between Kanan and Ezra, which is really fun to read. It also shows how they rely on each other in different situations, whether it's facing a Sith or just getting out of a tricky diplomatic situation on some planet.
They could find themselves on a desolate planet filled with strange and terrifying creatures. The planet has an eerie atmosphere that makes them constantly on edge. When they are attacked by a horde of these creatures that seem impervious to their usual attacks, they are filled with fear. But they must overcome it to survive and find a way off the planet.
I really like the fanfiction 'Hera and Kanan: The Unspoken Alliance'. In this story, the author beautifully portrays the chemistry between Hera and Kanan. It's full of action scenes where they fight side by side, but also tender moments that show their growing affection. Another interesting piece is 'Kanan's Promise to Hera'. It's set during a particularly dangerous mission, and Kanan makes a promise to Hera that he'll always be there for her. This adds a layer of depth to their relationship. Then there's 'The Path of Hera and Kanan' which follows their journey through different planets and how they support each other in every step.
In some fanfictions, Kanan might die heroically in a battle against the Empire. He could sacrifice himself to save his friends or to protect an important cause. For example, he might hold off a large group of stormtroopers while his comrades escape.
Meeting a powerful dark side entity that can manipulate their minds. This entity could make them see their worst nightmares as if they were real. For Kanan, it might be the fall of all his friends and the destruction of the Rebellion. For Ezra, it could be the death of his family all over again. They have to fight against this mental intrusion and their own fear.
