Aboard the Ghost

The Three A.M. Creep: Part One

A very silent Ghost, 3:00 a.m....

Ok, so maybe it being very silent was a complete lie.

Ezra stared outside from the cockpit window, feeling very bored and not tired at all. It wasn't his fault. How was he supposed to know that the cans in the freezer labelled 'Energy Drink' would make him feel this way?

Anyways, as he stared out the window, an idea started to form in his head.

And whenever an idea starts to form in his head, everyone knows that they'd better run...

A few very creepy giggles later...

The vents weren't as spacious as they seemed to be, but being small really helped. From his spot, he could see Kanan sleeping, soft snores meeting his ears. Ezra smirked.

This should be fun.

Quickly, Ezra opened a jar full of some... Very special creatures and started to dump them out through the grating of the vent. He smiled as he saw them rain down onto his master's face. Now all he had to do was wait.

-:-:-:-:-

Kanan could feel something on his face. It wasn't painful or anything, just annoying. He could feel it crawling around his face, and his nose twitched slightly. Whatever it was, he just really hoped that his padawan wasn't behind it.

He slowly sat up, and the things landed with soft thuds onto his lap. Since it was dark, he couldn't really make out what they were, so Kanan reached over to turn on the lamp that was on the desk beside his bed and saw that the things were actually-

"SPIDERS!!!" He shrieked, jumping up high enough to hit his head on the ceiling. Kanan hate, hate, hated spiders. And there was only one person on the ship who knew that...

"EZRA!!!" Kanan yelled loudly, but not loud enough to des turn the rest of the crew. Above him, Ezra's delighted peals of laughter rang. A second later, a head of bluish-black hair popped out from the vents.

"You shoulda seen the look on your face!" Ezra giggled softly. "And that scream, priceless!"

Kanan glared. "I'll have you know that I have a very manly scream! Er, I mean yell!"

Ezra just snickered. "You keep telling yourself that master. Anyways, gotta bounce. Have fun with your new friends!" Quickly, he pulled himself back in and pulled the grating back over the hole.

After he'd left, Kanan looked down at his lap. The spiders were still there. Groaning, he shook them off and turned off the light. His padawan was so going to get it later, but now, all Kanan really wanted to do was sleep. So he closed his eyes and slowly drifted back to sleep, one thought making itself present in his head:

Ezra was certainly not done yet, and the rest of the crew would be there to feel his wrath...
