Nowdays, rebels were the main cause of Lord Darth Vader's irritation. Before, they seemed just like typical rioters, similar to slave traders, smugglers, even separatists or extinct Jedi knights. (Of course, last example was exceptional in some cases.) However all his past enemies had something what could make hunting much more satisfactory. They had at least some organ, which could be described as a brain.
Really, young head of house Organa should not have tried to beat him in military fight, but used typical for Alderaan's people weapon - politics.
Tantive was no a problem for tactical skill of Dark Lord and sooner than Sith wanted, he noticed familiar brown head among coming stormtroopers. Even captured, senator stood straight and proudly.
"Lord Vader, you have no right. I demand…"
"I have every right. Especially, when treason is committed."
Furious brown eyes of prisoner narrowed at him. Usually, Sith Lord could see in them hided anger or forced politeness. Presently, only one thing was visible on the surface - determination. If Vader had had any doubts earlier, they vanished instantly.
„I don't know what you are talking about." Organa spoke again. "I told before yours incompetent soldiers, and I see, I will have to repeat myself again, this IS an ambasador's ship with diplomatic mission to Alderaan. With all respect, my father can give more information, which should satisfy curiosity of any official."
"I doubt it." Sith noticed that senator wanted to add next argument, which in different situation (for example, having place in senate) could possibly free alderaanian from cell, but Lord quieted prisoner by rice of his hand. "You don't have to prove me anymore, that Imperial Academy did not make a good soldier from you. What's more - a spy."
There it was. A painful reminder. Something which for Darth Vader could be useful in future. Personally, Black Lord was surprised that Academy could have taken in somebody like that stubborn politician. Senator was short, looked weak (in Sith's eyes, white uniform of Organa made skin even paler than usual) and had no idea about military situations. From what Vader heard, basic mechanical knowledge was as hard for young alderaanian as civil law for him. In the end, all had been taken care by traitorous Bail Organa and probably his money.
"I have learned enough." was said after short pause.
"Have you?" asked skeptically Dark Lord. "Then, I recommend to stop this charade. I realized why you are here, I can describe it in one sentence: you are a rebel and my enemy. You will give me all known informations about Alliance, if not - you will see that I will be mostly displeased."
"I'm aware of it, but I'm not afraid." The answer came calmly.
Annoying brat. Living in huge palace surely made small royalty think that house Organa is the center of universe. Vader promised himself that before sunset, the rebel will curse the day in which was born. Not thinking anymore, Dark Lord grabbed prisoner by his neck.
"Tell me where is rebellion's base." said bringing senator's face closer to his mask.
"Never."
In response Dark Lord tightened his grip. Weakly Organa's hands came to loose Vader's enormous fist. Yes, that posture of alderaanian was far more pleasant to Sith's eyes.
"Have you changed your mind?" asked, letting traitor to take only one breath.
"...go to hell…"
Really, beside military strategy, Prince Lear Organa should have learned good manners.
