(ZODIAC'S POV)
Seven Years Ago:
It has been three days since I lost dad. I'm starting to lose hope that he is still searching for me. Did he leave me ? I don't want to be left again.
-Zodiac, six years oldI closed my jornal with watery eyesand looked up at the snow crying sky, each frozen tear leaving a depressing sensation through out my body.
"Dad" I called out into the snow hugged forest.
"Dad" I said again a little louder knowing no one was coming, or I thought so. A figure or something looked to be walking towards me in the distance.
"Daddy !" I yelled gaining enough hope to at least think he would still be looking for me. The figure looked up toward me and instantly started running toward me.
"Zodiac" my dad said out of breath while picking me up bridle style.
"I let you go out, I fell asleep, I let you out of my sight"by now the tears were flowing from both of us as dad walked us back to what I hoped would be the tiny shuttle we landed in four days prior from now. Suddenly dad stopped moving causeing me to look up at him.
"I could have lost you"
Present Time:
Dads words from that day always ring in my mind whenever I'm mad, sad, or scared. I dont care about a lot of things, but I do care for my dads well being and I know if he loses me espcally for a stupid reason it would destory him forever. I thought about my dad for a while before a voice at the door broke my train of thought.
"Zodiac" Hera called standing at the door way.
"Ma'ma" I responded looking towards her.
"Breakfast in five okay" she finished.
"Understood, but if I may ask how long was I asleep ?"
"Almost two hours hon" and with that she walked out. Two hours. I slept for two whole hours. It felt amazing. With that thought in mind I got dressed
I was about to pull on my hood when the door opened again . Do they ever knock ? Turning to see who it was my heart froze. Droid. That's the only thing I could think of as one rolled in. It 'looked' at me then, to my horror, began to come towards me. So I did what any boy my age would do. I screamed like a bicth in heat.
"What's wrong !" Kanen yelled over my screaming to the other who beat him to the scene.
"I think he has I.F.O.D.D" Sabine yelled back in response.
"What's that" Ezra asked/yelled.
"Inhumane fear of droids disorder" Hera responded in a yell.
"Chop, go to the cockpit and Sabine get a mask he must use an inhaler with the way he's breathing" Kanen ordered to everyone. The droid left a minute later with a few colorful beeps and not soon after an oxygen mask was placed on my face.
"Kid you okay ?" Zeb asked a few minutes later after my breathing got back on track, well an even track.
"Not great, but better thanks for asking" I said in a slightly deeper voice thanks to the mask.
"I heard you work with Reg" Ezra said "How'd you do jobs with that droid addict ?".
"Reg custom made droids that looked, acted, and sounded so much like an actual animal that I could trick my brain into think it was an actual animal" I responded.
"Did you ever try just not being scared ?" Ezra asked once I was done explaining how me and my breakfast bud worked together.
"It's a mental illness that I have no control over" I replied taking off the mask and handing it to Sabine who nodded after taking it.
"Now lets go eat, I'm fucking hungry". And with that we left for breakfast.
NEXT TIME IN: THE SON OF KALLUS-
"Z-zodiac" Ezra siad looking at me with disbelife.
"Ezra" I said back as another illuminate tear went down my face. "Help me, PLEASE !" I yelled the last part as I dropped to my knees.
