"Ezra, you need to focus." Sitting on the Ghost's cargo ramp, Elliana watches as Kanan trained her brother. The boy was currently doing a handstand, trying to do it on one hand. Ezra did have a hard time focusing sometimes, that Ellie knew, but she also knew he could focus if he really wanted to.

"How's the kid?" Ellie looks up as Zeb sits next to her.

"Okay, I guess." Ellie replies quietly. Since her time with the Ghost crew, Ellie found herself coming out of her shell more. She definitely wasn't the same girl that left Lothal, quiet, shy, and hiding behind her hair a lot. Whenever Ellie braids her hair out of her face, the crew knows she's having a good day.

"I can't take anymore!" Ezra's hand slips and he falls on his head. "I'm sorry, Kanan."

"I think we'll be done for today." Kanan helps the boy up and the two return to the Ghost. Ellie touches her brother's shoulder as he walks by.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" Ezra snaps. Ellie watches as Ezra walks off. She was surprised at his reply. He usually wasn't cross with her.

"You alright?" Ellie looks up and meets two emerald eyes look down at her thoughtfully.

"He's not usually like that with me." Ellie admits.

"Just give him some space. He's had a hard day." Kanan says. Ellie nods and follows the Jedi into the Ghost. Ellie lets her feet take over and she finds herself outside Ezra's room. Taking a deep breath, she goes to knock on the door. The door opens before her knuckles touch the metal and Zeb appears.

"Oh, Zeb. Is Ezra in there?" Ellie asks.

"Yeah, he's in there. The kid's in a foul mood. I'd be careful if I was you." The Lasat walks off. Ellie turns to the door and walks in.

"Ezra?" Ellie calls out.

"Just leave me alone." Ellie spots a lump under Ezra's blanket and climbs up into the bed. She pulls some of the blanket back and her brother looks up at her.

"I said leave me alone." Ezra sits up and swings his legs over the side of the bed, head resting in his palms. Ellie leans forward, taking some of Ezra's hair, and begins to braid. This was something Ellie used to do on Lothal whenever Ezra was stressed, and it always worked. She could feel her brother instantly relax under her touch and he sighed loudly.

"I'm sorry for snapping at you." Ezra says, head still in his hands.

"It's okay. I know you didn't mean it. You never do, no matter what you say to Zeb." Ellie smiles as her brother looks up at her. She pulls him into a hug and they sit there for a moment. A knock at the door makes the twins look up. Sabine stood in the doorway.

"We're meeting in the cockpit. Hera got a new mission from Fulcrum. You'd better hurry."
