A Ticklish Padawan

Tickling the stress away

This part is dedicated to my awesome friend HarrryPotterRulz. Thanks for the suggestion!

Everyone was tense as Hera went over the attack on Lothal on the Ghost's Dejark table.
They'd been doing this for days and Ezra felt sick with nerves. As did everyone else.
The massive attack on Lothal's factory's would be their greatest achievement.
And they were afraid they wouldn't pull it off.
Sabine stood next to Ezra and was just as nervous as he was.
Ezra glanced at Sabine and saw her face.
Knowing exactly how to get her to relieve stress, he reached out a hand and softly tickled her side.
Sabine glared at Ezra and tried to shuffle away but Ezra kept coming back.
"Ezra" she growled and almost let a giggle slip.
"Stop it."
"You're​ stressed Sabine, you need to relieve it."
He poked her stomach and that broke the barrier.
Sabine gave a giggly yelp and everyone looked at them.
"That's it Ezra!" Sabine hollered leaping at the boy.
Ezra was tackled to the floor and Sabine wormed her fingers against his sides.
Ezra resistance wasn't as strong as Sabine's and broke in two seconds.
"Sahahabine!" He cried giggling uncontrollably.
"NOHOHOHO​! STAHAHAHAP IIIIIT!!"
Ezra laughter amplified when she hit his armpits.
Ezra managed to get her off and tickled her. 
Chopper, Zeb, Hera and Kanan watched with amusement as the teens tried to be on top.
Hera motioned to Kanan to follow and the quietly moved behind Ezra who was pinning Sabine down and tickling her unmercifully.
"EZRAHAHAHA I GIVE I GIHIHIHIVE!" Sabine yelled laughing.
"Sorry Sabine, you wouldn't show me mercy, I'm simply returning the favour. "
Ezra gave a yelp as he felt four hands grab him and pull him back.
He looked round in horror to see Kanan and Hera's gleeful faces.
It hardly took three seconds before Ezra was laughing hysterically.
Sabine pinned his hands above his head while Hera and Kanan tickled the boy's torso. 
Ezra was beginning to shed tears as Kanan tickled his armpits unmercifully.
"KAHAHAHAN!! I'M TOHOHO TICKLISH!! CUHUHUT IHIHIT OUT!!"
Kanan chuckled at his Padawan's state.
Hera suddenly waved at Sabine to get her attention.
Once she did, she pointed at Kanan and winked.
Sabine caught on and grinned.
Sabine lunged at Kanan who clearly wasn't expecting it at all.
He gave a yelp as he was pinned.
Ezra, who was still breathless, came over to help his family.
"Guys don't even think about it" Kanan began.
"Zeb! HELP!" He yelled when he realised they weren't going to give mercy.
Zeb only chuckled.
"Okay" he said and crouched  behind Kanan. Taking hold of his arms, Zeb held them above Kanan's head.
"Zeb!" Kanan cried in horror.
"You trahahahtior!"
Hera and began tickling the Jedi and the teens joined in.
It wasn't long before Kanan was laughing like Ezra was.
He struggled desperately in the Lasat's grip but it was too firm.
"EZRAHAHAHA!! SAHAHABINE! HERAHA! LEHEHEHET MEHEHEHE GOOOOO!" Kanan howled.
Hera finally nodded to the others who relented.
Kanan sat up and gasped for air.
"You're all dead to me" he panted.
Ezra was laughing at Kanan.
"You should've​ seen yourself!" He giggled.
"Oh think it was funny did you? Well I'm gonna give you something to really laugh about!"
Ezra was back on the floor, laughing his head off.
He could hardly speak.
"Kahahan!"
He couldn't say anything​ else because Kanan had just got to his armpits.
"Dad! STAHAP IIT!"
Kanan did so, staring at Ezra who clearly had no idea what he'd just said.
As he sat up, he saw everyone looking at him.
"What?" He asked.
"Ezra, do you have any idea what you just called Kanan?" Hera asked as the two Jedi stood up.
"Uh no?" He replied.
"You called him dad" Sabine said.
Ezra froze, staring at Kanan.
"Oh kriff" he muttered.
"Hey Ezra" Kanan said.
The boy looked up at him nervously.
He was shocked when his Master pulled him into a hug.
"Don't tell the others, but I've always thought of you as my son" he whispered.
Relief filled Ezra and he hugged back.
When he pulled away, he smiled found at everyone.
"I think we all needed that" Hera said.
"Yeah, especially with all the stress we've had" Kanan agreed.
Ezra looked round at his crew.
They might have been an odd bunch, but they were family.

Suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
