"Approaching planet Earth in 5… 4… 3… 2… 1…"
Darth Maul now sat again in the pilot's seat, bringing his ship to land in a relatively uninhabited area. He wasn't precisely sure where he was, but he believed he was somewhere in the country of United States of America. His computer told him that he had landed somewhere in the province of Illinois; he was, according to the map readouts, more centrally located.
The ship landed smoothly. Still cloaked, it could not be seen by anyone in the area. Darth Maul opened the hatchway and prepared to depart, swathed in his black cloak and black Sith robes. His lightsaber hung at his side, clipped neatly to his belt, should he need to use it.
And he felt quite ready to use it at any time. He was still rather irked about the conversation he had been reading earlier. He stopped in the doorway of the control room and glanced back at the console. Were they still discussing him?
"Computer," he said in his guttural tone.
The console blinked to life. "Yes?"
"Reconnect to Earth's main communication system."
"Connected. You are in Star Wars Chicks Chatroom."
With a somewhat heavy heart, Maul approached the console. He dropped into a chair and began to read the conversation once more. He was dismayed that the conversation still continued, hours later.
luvshornyguys: but really, Sidious just abuses him and abuses him and I bet somewhere deep down it hurts.
sithassassin: who cares? he likes killing people. even if it did "hurt somewhere deep down" he wouldn't know it. he's just used to it.
maulslover: but don't u think that's sad? I mean he shouldn't b like that.
sithassassin: but he is, so there.
Maul groaned and said, "Disconnect!" The computer obeyed and shut down.
It took him a moment to collect himself. Finally, he got up and started to walk out of the door. But as he walked down the hall, he stopped and began to ponder. Do I really have a soft spot somewhere deep inside?
He stopped. He searched his emotions. He searched and searched and searched.
He breathed a sigh of relief. "Nope," he said with an evil grin, and then set out to face the world.
