[abovedeception]

The name you have chosen isn't comforting. Even I could fall prey to deception. I only hope I realize my mistake before it is too late.

[Anakin, are you listening? Ahem ahem.]

I also do not take kindly to you separating me from my charge. Send me back immediately if you truly have no ill intentions.

Comments

[notexpendable]

The better Sith wins. I've seen it firsthand.

[abovedeception]

The one who is the most deceived you mean.

[notexpendable]

Generally deception happens before murder. Perhaps after, it really depends on how many of you we have to watch for.

[abovedeception]

Only if you are meant to be aware of it. Then again, the Force allows even the dead to see what has become of the universe.

[notexpendable]

How is your master, jedi?

[abovedeception]

You know very well.

[notexpendable]

A bit quiet, then?

[abovedeception]

He is at peace. I know where he rests.

[notexpendable]

Keep telling yourself that, jedi.

What about young Anakin? Your master didn't get to teach him, did he? Does the boy know fear yet? Pain? Did he learn that the Force won't save him from the dark side?

[abovedeception]

I need not tell myself anything. I can sense him.

[A shadow passes over his features.]

You don't know? [Why would he?] Anakin is dead. In his place, you have a new addition to your ranks. He calls himself Darth Vader.

[notexpendable]

[Maul doesn't appear pleased. If anything, he seems angry.]

My master took the boy on as an apprentice?

[abovedeception]

Yes. [Suck it.] Underneath all of our noses.

[notexpendable]

He will regret that.

[abovedeception]

He will, but not for the reasons you believe.

[notexpendable]

What, because I'm half the man I was or because you still believe that talk about the chosen one?

[abovedeception]

He is the Chosen One. But that is not the reason he will regret his actions. [Not initially.]

[notexpendable]

Why, then?

[abovedeception]

Why would I give you such vital information?
