"What was my mommy like?" The three year old asked as she looked up at her family. Her siblings looked at each other. Usually their dad would answer a question like this but, he was at work currently so, Opal was watching them.
It had been three years since that day. It was a day they would rather not tell her about untrue or until she was much older but, that didn't stop her from finding out a year later.
"Okay, who cooked it?" Hera asked as she walked in the room. She knew better than to try food that was left out for her unless it was Mother's Day or her birthday. If she did than it was usually a prank or Kanan's cooking which had always been horrible. Yet, it wasn't like Kanan knew how bad of a cook he was. That was something no one had the heart to tell him. Ever. Even when he wasn't blind.
"Cooked what?" Crystal asked. Chopper was was playing holo chest with her against Zeb and Ezra. Meanwhile Morgana was listening to Kanan retell some stories about mission the crew had been on before she moved into the ship. The brunette preteen thought the stories were awesome.
"The cookies that were mysteriously left out side my door this morning." Hera stated looking at Ezra. He seemed to squirm in his seat a bit. That was a prank he tried to out on Hera a couple months back after Sabine had first went back home and there was nothing else to do. The plan was to leave cookies stuffed with sprinkles. It was originally meant for Zeb but, some how the plate was given to Hera. After words he was grounded for a week for making Hera choke on sparkles.
"Well, were they any good?" Crystal smirked. She was pretty sure she knew who they were from. In fact she had caught them baking at 1am this morning.
"Nice try, I didn't eat them." Hera stated as she crossed her arms. She wasn't falling for it again. Morgana's face seems to fall from emotionless to sad.
"Oh. That's okay. I just thought you might like them but, if not just give 'em to Zeb." Morgana stated. She had worked so hard on them but, Hera must not be a cookie person. Or just didn't like food. Meanwhile Ezra was mentally laughing. He kept picturing her baking cookies while killing someone with chocolate chips.
"No, it's not that. It's just I thought it was a- Wait, when did you bake them. I've been up since ten am and I haven't seen you at the oven." Hera stated. Meanwhile Crystal whispered a swear word in her native tongue silently as the boy's took down another one of her chess pieces.
"Ummm,.............1 am." Morgana mumbled.
"Then go take a nap or something. You need sleep." Hera stated pointing to her room.
"Hera, honestly I'm fine. I am a nigh owl after all." Morgana stated with a small frown on her face like she always did. Yet, this time it seems like she was more sad than ever before. Well, if it was possible of her showing an emotion.
"Well, I'm gonna go try some cookies. I'll see you later." Hear smiled as she left the room. Morgana just rolled her eyes.
"Sure you will." Morgana mumbled. Of course she would try them. Probably the same time she learn to fly. Kanan seems to pick up on how she was feeling.
"You know she didn't mean to a fend you. She's just trying to connect with you like she has with everyone one of us." Kanan stated. It was a true fact. She had been like a mother to all of them including Crystal. After all Crystal's father had befriended Hera after Crystal was the age of six. Ever since then she was like her mother in a way after her real one died. Yet, it was harder to be friends or anything to a girl who tried to distance herself from everyone after mission or doing anything with others.
"Yeah, I don't think that's gonna happen." Morgana stated as she glanced over at the door. Everyone felt their blood pressure rise a little bit. Hera was the best mother figure in the world. Except for Kanan. He didn't want Morgana or anyone to like Hera the way he did.
"Morgana, you know she's not trying to replace you mom or anything." Crystal stated. That was when she faked up without knowing it. You see if you want to live, never talk about Morgana's mother to her or around her. Ever.
"Oh trust me she's already better than that bitch ever was." Morgana mumbled. The room feel silent after that. Okay, there was silence for a second before Crystal began swearing in her native tongue as Chopper shocked her. After wards Chopper shocked the opposing team who both yelled. Then, the three people of different species chased the droid through out the ship.
"Shouldn't we go help him?" Morgana asked.
"Nah, the boys can dismantle the droid by themselves. Same goes for Crystal." Kanan smirked. With that he went back to telling the story about his time spent as an imperial prisoner after sacrificing himself for the crew. He may have added a bit more drama to keep her focussed on the story.
Meanwhile Morgana was thinking that Hera didn't really kiss Kanan when he saw her for the first time after being captured. Afterwords, maybe. Yet, something just told her that she wouldn't have kissed Kanan in front of Ezra. Or Zeb. Or anyone! Well, anyone who wasn't blind.
~time skip~
"Chopper, you in here?" Morgana whispered as she shucking unto the cockpit. The group of three Chopper hunters had gone back to the common room, without the droid. Unlike the others on the ship, except for Hera, she liked Chopper. They both shared a hatred for the empire and their plans for galaxy domination. Yet, Chopper's plans usually ended with a lot more deaths than hers did.
She was about to leave when she heard a loud thump. The 14 year old walked closer to where the noise came from. Her purple eyes seemed to fall under the control panel. The room was pitch black, for some reason so she couldn't see what was three but, the thud definitely came from there. Then the lights turned on and she saw Chopper. Chopper let out a large beep making her jump a foot in the air. A women giggled from behind her.
"I hope Chopper didn't scare you too much." Hera smiled as she walked over to the young girl. Morgana tried to look Hera in the eyes by standing up straight but, ended up looking at her stomach. You see, Morgana's was 5'1" tall. So, she was the shortest person on the ghost. Well except, for Chopper but, he was basically an immortal, metal war god so, he didn't count. Which is why she hated he hight. Like Crystal was even taller than her. The girl was 5'9" and more child like at times than Morgana was.
"He didn't." Morgana stated as she looked up into Hera's eye.
"<Are the neanderthals gone yet?>" Chopper beeped. He wasn't dumb. H knew if he didn't hid then, those barbaric people who have dismantled him or sure this time. Hera sighed. As for Morgana, she bent down to his hight.
"Yeah, they were replaying their game with Kanan. So, I think you're safe for now." Morgana stated. With that the droid let out a sigh of relief before quickly rolling out off the room. Which just left the two females in the same room.
Hera just sat down in the pilot seat. It wasn't like she didn't try with her. She really did try to at least have Morgana talk to her but, she always avoided talking to her. As well as just sitting next to her.
Morgana just seemed to feel awkward around Hera a lot. Maybe it was because she tried to be Morgana's mom. Or maybe it was because Morgana never had a mother. Ever.
"Well, I'm just gonna go." Morgana stated trying to leave. Hera spun her chair around.
"Hey, Morgana I wanted to know if you ever been on a beach before." Hera smiled. Morgana just stared at her for a moment.
"Umm, maybe once but, I never did anything there other than my old job. Why?" Morgana stated. To be honest, she Assassinated one person on a beach before. She never did anything she wanted to do there. Not even swimming.
"Well, I was thinking we could all go tomorrow. That is if you what too." Hera stated as she turned her chair back around to face the stars.
"Sure." Morgana stated.
"Wait, you own a swim suit?" Hera asked.
"Nope. I'm just gonna wear the outfit i'm w-"
"You are not wearing a entire black outfit to the beach. You'd melt."
"Hera humans can't melt."
"To bad. We're going to go get you one tonight."
"You don't need to do that."
"Don't worry about it. Now, go get ready for the shopping experience of a life time."
"Can't wait." Morgana stated leaving the room. She didn't want to do it to be honest.
