Simple Moments

Kanan threw a pebble, watching it sink into the small stream. He was alone in the wooded area. Through the trees behind him, the hull of the Ghost could be seen from where it was sitting in a large clearing.

He had snuck away from the rest of the crew. It wasn't that something was wrong; quite the opposite actually. They had returned from a more then successful mission, and now were waiting to meet up with Vizago, idly on a small outer rim forest planet, one that the Empire had decided was not worth any substantial value, and had ignored it up to a point.

No, nothing was visibly wrong. Kanan just felt…down. Maybe it was stress getting to him, or dreading the thought of meeting up with the smuggler. Whatever the reason, Kanan was feeling low.

He sensed more than heard someone come up behind him.

"Hey Kid," Kanan greeted, glancing over his shoulder at Ezra.

"What're you doing here?"

The youth smiled sheepishly, lowering himself into a sitting position beside his mentor.

" Well, I might have, sorta pranked Zeb. And he might be just a little bit annoyed me right now. And then I might've had to run for my life"

Kanan shook his head wearily. "What am I going to do with you?"

"Well, you could go easier on the Jedi training." Ezra teased lightly. He ducked his friend's half hearted swat in his direction and turned to gaze at the rippling water. His grin slowly faded.

"You okay?" He couldn't quite manage to keep the concern out of his voice.

"Yeah." Kanan said. "Just thinking."

"What are you thinkin' about?" Kanan turned and looked down into the big blue eyes of his padawan.

"Nothing important."

Ezra huffed and crossed his arms. "Then why did you take off then?"

"Maybe I was trying to get away from a certain padawan I know." Kanan said with a faint grin.

Ezra rolled his eyes. He reached into the small stream and flicked some droplets the man's way. Kanan responded with a small splash. Ezra shrieked at the cold water against his skin and gave a harder splash of his own.

It wasn't long until it escalated into a full scale water battle. Shouts and laughter filled the sun-lit air as master and apprentice soaked each other.

Ezra backed away from a splash Kanan sent his way, only to slip and fall into the water. Kanan laughed as the teen spluttered.

"Funny… very funny.." Ezra managed to say as he spewed liquid from his mouth. Chuckling, Kanan extended a hand to help him up. Ezra gripped his hand. But instead of pulling himself up to his feet, he yanked. Kanan stumbled and fell into the stream beside him.

"Now that's funny." Ezra laughed. His friend simply splashed him and the battle resumed.

….

Sabine looked up from her datapad when the ramp opened. "Good to see you both….."

She froze as they walked in. "What in the empire-ridden galaxy happened to you guys?"

Ezra grinned at her as water pooled around his feet. "It rained." He said cheerfully.

Sabine placed both hands on her hips. "Don't be ridiculous, it's not even cloudy outside."

"You sure about that?" He suddenly opened his arms and jumped forward as if to embrace her. Sabine shrieked.

"Don't you dare touch me, Ezra Bridger!" She took off, the padawan right on her heels. Kanan shook his head and went to change into dry clothing.

…

Hera looked up as Kanan walked in and noticed his damp hair. "Took a shower?"

"You could say that." Kanan sat in the co-pilot's seat with a sigh of contentment.

"You seem in a better mood." Hera remarked as she prepared for take off. She studied him with a soft smile.

"So, ready to go meet Vizago?"

"Yep." And he was.

Thank you all so much for your reviews! I originally wasn't planning on continuing this, but I've decided to do at least a couple more like these. I need some ideas though. If you guys have any ideas please let me know! Thanks again y'all!
