Pain was the first thing he felt once he opened his eyes. For him, it felt a lot like the aftermath of whenever his master, now former master, punished him with force lightning. The second thing he noticed was the ringing in his ears. He brought one of his arms up to his forehead to rub it, but before he could touch it, he only now noticed his arm. The second he noticed it, he quickly stood up, looking down onto his body. He closed his eyes and started to meditate to lessen the pain, something he constantly did throughout the years when he was Darth Vader, for a few seconds to compose himself.
Once he was done, he finally took in his surroundings, noticing he was in a crater around 2 metres tall. He simply jumped out of it with ease, and landed on a deserted road without any complications. He then felt a presence behind him in the air, so he quickly spun around and looked at them, noticing the being's mask and wings straight away.
"Yeah, it seems to not be movin-, never mind"
"Maroth, report, what's happening"
" It's now moving. Please send backup quickly, I have a bad feeling about this."He said as his hands started to tremble a bit. "It got so much colder, wait, why are my hands trembling?"
"Alright, Group 13 are the closest people to you, and I'm sending them your coordinates now. Try to keep it busy until they arrive."
"Roger, Maroth out. "He said as he ended the call.
As he removed his hand off his headset, the being jumped out of the crater and quickly spun around and looked at him dead in the eye. On instinct, or fear, Maroth quickly pulled out his spear that was attached to his back, as he felt something was about to go down.
"You, stay where you are!" Maroth said in a commanding voice, mixed with a bit of fear.
Anakin looked straight at the flying being, feeling the small amount of fear radiating off of him. He quickly looked at his surroundings, and finally had a clear view of where he was. He seemed to be in a empty commercial street, with lit up signs, tall buildings, and apartments. But the most noticeable thing was the red sky that had no sun or moon.
"Am I in the Dark Side of the Force? No , it doesn't feel like it. Maybe it is some kind of illusion? That creature up there might know." He thought, as he looked back at the being.
Anakin lifted his left arm up to the creature, but as he did so, it seemed to flinch and move backwards a bit. He even felt more fear radiating so he decided to use that to his advantage.
"Stop right there or I will shoot you!"
"Shoot me? You have a spear." Anakin thought with a tilt of his head.
He still decided to ignore the creature and made an open palm. He used the force and pulled the creature towards him. Before the creature had the chance to react, it's throat was being gripped by Anakin. It attempted to flee and shout, but his grip held strong, shutting it's airway tight. The creature, still holding its spear, attempted to use it on Anakin, but with a single thought, Anakin threw the spear away with the was gripping Anakin's hand attempting to loosen the grip, but to no avail. Anakin looked straight into the creature's eyes(?) and asked it 'nicely(as much he gets)' "Where am I."
Maroth was scared, the last time he was this scared he lying down on his deathbed, surrounded by only machines with no one around him. He didn't know how he got to heaven, but it wasn't what he thought it would be. Instead of it being this majestic wonderland, It was more like a boot camp than anything else. Following every rule, having certain meals at certain times, prayers and any sign of disobedience would result in punishment.
As he was forced to look into the creature's bright crimson eyes, he felt more scared than he did in his (after)life , but not from the position he was in (ie:gasping for air).No, he was scared from the raw power that being emitted from this creature. It had an aura filled with darkness, something only the lords of hell had.
"Where am I." It's voice sounded like 2 people speaking at once, one of them being more deep and mechanical, and the other being warm and calming. Maroth attempted to speak, but the creature's hand was on the verge of crushing his windpipe. It seemed to notice this and loosened its grip just a bit so he can barely talk.
"CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP. WHAT SHOULD I DO!"
"I suggest telling the truth. "Anakin said out loud.
"IS IT READING MY MIND" Maroth thought out of fear and shock.
"Yes, so answer truthfully before you suffer the consequences. "Anakin answered Maroth
"All right, all right! we're in Pentagram City!" Maroth replied using his real voice.
"And where is that?"
"What do you mean where? Hell."
Anakin took a moment to think about the answer he was given and decided to ask Maroth one more question." What are you?"
"An angel. Specifically, an exterminator."
The first thing he thought of once he was given his answer, was Iego. But he quickly dismissed it as he was very certain he was dead, and somewhere in the Force. He then let go of Maroth and dropped him onto the ground.
Maroth was gasping for air while holding his throat in pain.
"You may leave now" Anakin said turning to the other side and started to walk the other direction.
"Leave? Why are you letting me go?" Maroth questioned with fear and curiosity in his voice.
"You told the truth, and I'm in a forgiving mood" Anakin replied.
As Maroth heard that, he looked to the ground and sighed in relief. " But," Maroth looked back to see Anakin standing in one spot, turning his head towards him. "If you ever attempt to stop me again, there won't be a third meeting. And I suggest you call off your reinforcements before I deal with them, unless you want your comrades blood on your hands"
Maroth hastily brought his hand back up to his headgear and called the command center." Command, call off the reinforcements." he said while trying calm himself down
"Maroth, are you alright? You seemed to be exhausted."
"I'm fine. Just call off the reinforcements. I've dealt with the so called creature. It turned out to be a trap from a local gang to attempt to steal my weapons. But I was successful in holding them off, and managed to escape."Maroth thought at the top of his head.
"Are you sure? Group 13 is nearby and they can deal with the gang that attacked you."
"Don't worry about it, I am already setting a trap to exterminate the gang in their hideout by crushing the building they were in on top of them."
A few seconds passed as command center finally replied." All right, your story seems to check out. You seem to be in a area controlled by a small gang, so you should be able to exterminate them quickly."
Maroth covered his mic before sighing in relief. He was incredibly lucky today." Thank you command, I am starting the demolition now."
"All right, make sure to come back in a few hours. Extermination is almost over, command out."
"Maroth out." He ended the call.
As Maroth turned around, Anakin was nowhere in sight. He quickly picked up his spear and charged it up using his magic. He chose a random building and quickly fired a bolt of lightning towards it. It didn't destroy the building straight away, as Maroth chose to destroy the weakest looking part of the building and it started to collapse. He heard some screams coming from the building but ignored it and started to fly away.
