Stars Wars Parting Of The Ways:
By Mathieu Leader
The black caped armoured figure of Darth Vader was walking across the dusty dessert of Tatooine.
He said in a rasping voice "The Jedi will perish Obi-Wan; you brought the destruction of your noble order upon yourself. You are forced to live as an outcast watching from afar as my son grows with age,"
The brown bearded figure of Obi-Wan said darkly "The Dark Side has poisoned your mind, with your recklessness Anakin, has lead to falling from the path of truth and down the path of despair only death waits for you,"
The figure of Vader said angrily "Spirituous nonsense. Ancient Jedi prophecies are heresy to the Empire,"
Obi-Wan said "You fear for the futures don't you Skywalker, you are merely a pawn to the Emperor's whims. You are following him blindly unwaveringly you will in time be disposed,"
Darth Vader withdrew a red light-sabre and said darkly "Time is my greatest ally but for you Obi-Wan it is your greatest enemy!"
He jabbed the light-sabre into Obi-Wans chest and suddenly in a field of scarlet electricity the once youthful exterior of Obi-Wan was reduced to that of a crippled old man.
He stared in horror in the clear water from in his clay bowl at his at his old white wrinkled face and let out a harrowing scream.
Vader said grimly "With each passing day Death looms over the horizon for you my mentor, I have greater powers that only the Jedi ever dreamt of in their worst nightmares,"
Obi-Wan said coldly "It takes a man to admit their mistakes Anakin I'm sorry for what I did to you a year ago, today on the rivers of fire with the Emperor encaging your soul in that accursed armour,"
Vader said "I was born anew from the anger and hate I stand before you not as your precious pupil Anakin, but as Lord Vader the vessel for all those who had fallen to the Jedi!"
Obi-Wan said coolly "You do know understand the phrase with age one gains experience,"
Vader said darkly "Senility also comes with age and as the impenetrable fortress of your mind weakens you'll be unable to muster an ability of the force the sheer pressure will crush every fibre of being!"
Obi Wan raised his hand and the giant boulder levitated and was thrown directly at Vader.
Vader said softly "This is where we part ways Obi Wan perhaps we shall be on better terms in the afterlife I do hope so,"
Obi-Wan said sadly "I hope so to Anakin Skywalker,"
