Ezra woke the next morning and yawned. When he went to the kitchen, he noticed how quiet the ship was... No Chopper and Zeb fights, no Kanaan waking him up to train, no spray paint sounds, and Hera wasn't obsessively playing holo chess. No one was here.
Ezra frowned. "They left? ... I knew they hated me."
When he looked at the table, he saw pancakes stacked on a plate. His frown faded and he smiled. He ate them eagerly.. Sarah Syndulla's pancakes. Oh yeah.. Best pancakes in the galaxy. And he thought they left him. Did they want something or were they just doing that nice-to-others thing? Right now, he just enjoyed the pancakes. When he finished, he noticed a note on the table. He picked it up and read it.
'Clue #1
Breakfast delicious I hope
If not, you'll have to cope
Moving on to clue number two
Don't touch my glitter glue!'
Sabine obviously wrote this. He ran to her room and found her glitter glue. A gift bag was on top of the glitter glue. He picked it up and opened it.. Orange spray paint! He guessed since she knew he was going to take it anyway, she would give him some. It also had some orange glitter. He pocketed it and saw a piece of paper under the gift.
'Clue #2
Rhymes are boring
And hard
And annoying
Just look near my charging station.'
Definately Chopper. Ezra ran to Chopper's charging station and saw some power cells.. The good kind. He pocketed them and grabbed a note off of the wall.
'Clue #3
Sometimes we fight
That's alright
Chopper's worse
Hera and Sabine just punched me
No more rhymes
Not much time
Ugh I rhymed
Anyway, just go look in our closet.'
Zeb.. He ran to their shared room's closet and saw a punching bag with the Inquisitor painted on it. On it was a note..
'Come outside.'
Very to the point.. Kanaan, probably. Ezra ran outside and saw a blue lightsaber shaped cake. There were balloons and streamers. His mouth hung open.
Kanaan grinned and put his hand on Ezra's shoulder. "Surprise!"
Ezra stood still, confused. "What? Why? How? ... Thank you."
"In your sleep, you mumbled.. Ezra, you're an amazing padawan. Sometimes you're a little undisciplined, but that's okay. You don't try.. You do. And you do great."
"But Kanaan.. I don't. I fail you so much."
"Hey.. Everyone has failed. You learn and keep going. Let it go, Ezra. Let go of your insecurities. Release them to the force."
Ezra did something that surprised both of them.. He hugged Kanaan. After all Ezra's been through, it seemed like a good time for a hug.
Ezra pulled away. "You're the best Master ever, Kanaan."
"I wouldn't say that.. Especially considering that I'm the only jedi you've ever met."
"Whatever.."
Kanaan ruffled Ezra's hair playfully. The entire crew, except Chopper, dug into the lightsaber cake. Master and Padawan.. They both teach each other. Just like Ezra thought, the Empire left them alone until season 2. Vader wasn't half as afraid of Ezra the Prank King as the rest of the crew and the Inquisitor thought he should be. We'll have to wait to see how that goes...

The end.
