Hey guys! Sorry its been so long since I added a new chapter. I got super busy after October since I got my first job. That and various other personal issues that I do not wish to disclose with the rest of the internet... ._.

ANYWAY~~ Here's the next chapter, albeit very short. I was about 2 hours early to work today and I had brought my tablet along with me so I quickly typed this up while I waited. This is very much a filler chapter and I can only hope that the next chapter will be a lot longer.

To anyone that stuck around for this, thank you for waiting. To anyone reading this and is new to this story, welcome!

Once Kanan made it back to his cabin, he decided that sleep wasn't going to be the best thing for himself right now. He wasn't going to lie, that dream really rattled him. And despite his usually calm, fearless nature, he couldn't help but let it rattle him.

He shook this thought from his head and sat down on his bunk, crossing his legs carefully and slowly, trying not to put too much work on his muscles. He started to notice that, the more he works himself, the higher the chance is that his muscles and body will tense up and react to the shock. So the slower he moves, the better. This didn't stop the pain though. All of his joints hurt, making moving super fast impossible to begin with.

He remembers the medicine he was given, looking over to his side table. The bottle sat there, still full. He didn't take any of them yet, wanting to save them for when he really needs them, when the pain becomes unbearable.

In his hunched over position, he started to meditate. Or at least tried to. He slowed his breathing, trying to let himself fall into a calming, meditative state. His mind wandered into light, everything calm and tranquil. He didn't personally know it happened, but he sighed, his shoulders slacking just a bit at the ease and comfort.

But, sadly, this only lasted for a bit of time before the Ghost suddenly rattled. He was shaken from his calm, looking around.

"Ezra, Zeb, Sabine!" Yelled Hera's voice over the Ghosts internal comm system, "Get to the guns! Tie fighters spotted us and are closing in overhead."

Kanan heard the clattering of footsteps out in the Cabin Hallway as everyone scrambled to their stations. He got himself up, carefully pulling himself from his bunk and over to the door. The ship began moving as Hera expertly lifted them off into the atmosphere.

"Chopper get yourself to the cockpit ASAP. And Kanan, before you ask, you should stay in your cabin." Hera commented over the comm, as if she read his mind. Kanan groaned. He found his comm on his side table.

"I can still help, you know. Its not like we are on a mission" He commented, trying to defend himself. He's not weak. Its not like his bones are broken and he needs to be stuck in his bed. He can still function enough to at least help on board the ship.

"Kanan, if you really want to help, then help us by staying in your cabin. Its just a few TIEs, the rest of us can handle this." Hera commed back. Before Kanan could respond, he noted that Hera had turned off the comm system. He groaned, sitting back down on his bunk. He listened to the sound of the ties around them as they entered space and the sound of the Ghosts nose, top and rear guns going off. Within the span of ten minutes, everything fell silent.

Kanan stood, carefully making his way over to his cabin door. Outside he heard the rest of his crew make their way through the hall. The cockpit door opened and Hera's voice filled the hall, "Whew... I guess we can't ever go back to that hiding spot now... Great job, everyone."

A small victory call arose from the rest of the crew before falling silent into the footsteps of them all going bout their own, personal tasks. Chopper zoomed out of the cockpit and down the hallway.

Kanan heard one last pair of feet make their way out of the cockpit. But, instead of these continuing down the hallway, they stopped right in front of Kanan's cabin door. Kanan stepped back a bit, and just as he did that the door to his cabin slid open.

Hera stood there in the door way, giving Kanan a comforting but mildly upset look.

"Kanan..." Hera said lightly, "I'm sorry to keep you stuck here, but its out of your very best interest to keep movement to a minimum. I... WE, don't want you to get hurt even more than you already are." She moved closer to him, quietly taking one of Kanan's hands into her own, now gloved, ones.

"I... I know you guys are worried but honestly I'm fine. My body has been fine so far today, no spasms yet!" Kanan said, tightening his grip of Hera's hands.

As if on cue, just to prove Kanan wrong, his hand clenched up in pain. Hera stared in shock, letting go of Kanan's hand as he pulled it to his chest. The pain subsided quickly, but oh how it hurt.

"You were saying?" Hera said, only letting a bit of seriousness fall into her tone. She smirked up at Kanan jokingly, letting Kanan know that she didn't believe him one bit about his pain form the start.

"Alright... Alright..." Kanan huffed out, "I'll stay in my cabin. But let it be known that I'm not happy about it at all. I don't want to be in here. I feel like I should still be contributing in some way cause I'm not crippled, I'm just dealing with some here and there pain."

"How about," Hera put her hands on his waist, "Instead of looking at this situation in a way that makes you feel like you aren't of any help, you look at it as you are being helpful by staying seated or at least in a position where you won't fall so, if something were to come up, we don't have to worry about you getting hurt any further?"

Kanan smiled. Hera always tried to find optimism in any situation.

"Alright. I'll try."

Hera smiled and pushed herself up onto her tip-toes, giving Kanan a small, quick kiss on the cheek.

Told ya it was short. uwu

I hope that the next chapter can AT LEAST be 2000 to 3000 words. I'll work to aim for that.

Anyway, thank you for reading, reviews are very much appreciated and may the rest of your day be ever wonderful.
