Letting out a long sigh, I angle my head up, letting the hot water dance on my skin, getting rid of a days sweat.
And what a day it was.
It was supposed to be an easy op. At least that's what Kanan said.
Owwww
I grimace as the water reaches the large cut across my back.
Stupid inquisitor.
Stealing imperial goods had turned into a 2v1 duel with the Grand Inquisitor.
Not fun.
I smile, running a hand through my short hair.
Maybe I should grow it out again.
I frown at the thought and grab the bar of soap.
Kanan got out fine, a bruise on his chest where the inquisitor kicked him, and a cut across his cheek.
A small one at that.
Me on the other hand was a different story. Three brokers fingers, a dislocated shoulder, and a large slice from my right shoulder blade down to my left hip.No blood loss though.
Nope, only seared skin. Thank you lightsaber.
I start cleaning myself with my left hand, my right drooping limp. The inquisitor managed to catch my arm mid-swing, pull it out of socket, causing me to scream in pain and fall to my knees. He then kicked Kanan in the chest sending him careening into a large crate, leaving a dent. He then turned back to me and kicked me in my back, where I ignited my lightsaber, only to have my entire right hand squashed by his over sized boot, breaking my fingers and damaging my lightsaber in the process.
Karabast that hurt.
Glancing down at my hand I try to flex my fingers, one by one.
Owwww. Stupid, stupid, stupid, don't ever do that again.
Mentally cursing myself I play out the rest of duel in my head. Just as the inquisitor goes for the killing blow, Kanan jumps back into the picture, bringing his lightsaber down in the inquisitor's head, only to be blocked, punched and sliced across the cheek. By now Hera has shown up, with Sabine and Zeb hanging out the cargo door trying to help in any way possible.
Primarily shooting at him.
Only to be deflected back at them. Zeb falls while Sabine tries to catch him. Kanan miraculously catches Zeb mere millimeters from the ground with the force, and throws him back up to the hold. While distracted by Zeb's near end, the inquisitor takes this chance to end me. I was able to turn over in the knick of time.
Thank goodness for the Force. Really comes in handy sometimes.
His blow slices my back, and boy did that hurt.
A lot.
I turn the water off and feel the drops start sliding down my face.
How did we get out?
The cut across my back must have inflicted so much pain, my body just decided to shut down.
I blacked out.
Thank goodness too, left the hard work to Kanan and the others.
I feel a smile creep onto my face as I slide out of the small shower.
Man, Hera really needs to save some credits and upgrade the bathrooms. Small, too small.
I pull my towel to me and start drying off.
Slipping out into the hallI start making my way to Zeb and I's bunk.
"Ezra?"
Oh boy
Slowly I turn to the the voice to see Sabine wide eyed, and in nothing but a tank top and pajama pants.
Damn
It's not often I see her out her armor.
And that top is pretty revealing.
Forcing my eyes upwards I catch her curious look.
"Hey." I sputter out nervously.
Oh wonderful. Stupid Ezra. Hey? That's all you got?
Frowning I look toward the durasteel plating on the ground.
"Forgetting something Ezra?"
Confused, I glance up at her only to be surprised with a stifled laugh.
Uh oh.
I glance down and see the problem.
Shit. Dumb ass. Stupid Ezra.
Using the my towel that is wrapped around my shoulders (instead of my waist) I quickly wrap it around the lower portion of my body.
Wow. I really just did that. She really just s-
"Goodnight Ezra." Sabine says quietly walking past me.
It wasn't until I hear the gentle hiss of the door until I let go of the breath I didn't even know I was holding in.
Sigh.
. . .
I feel the light breeze brush my hair in my face, as I try to maintain my calm composure with my eyes shut tightly.
Worst part of being a Jedi.
Meditating. I'm terrible at it. I just can't seem to focus.
At all.
Popping an eye open I glance in Kansans direction, who calmly raises an eyebrow keeping eyes eyes closed.
"Yes Ezra?"
I quickly shut my eyes, and shake my head.
"N-nothing. I'm fine."
I hear Kanan let out a sigh, "Something on your mind?" He asks breathlessly.
"Nope." I reply popping the "P".
"Are you s-"
Suddenly the screech of a tie fighter flies overhead.
Then another.
And another.
The long string of ties finally come to an end as I look over to Kanan, who's face I can't read.
That was. . . weird.
"Come." He says coming to stand and turning into the direction of the Ghost. "Let's warn the others."
Giving another glance up at the sky, I nod and follow him back up the ramp.
. . .
Well imma just end this right here for now. If you haven't noticed there is no actual plot . . . yet. This story will be an adventure, as much to u as to me as well. There will be ezrabine, sabezra, whatever you wanna call it. But this story is still in the building phases. Thanks for reading!
