The Search For Maul
Kiara's POV:I walked out of the medical center...I recovered after a few days of resting. But, my injuries still hurt. My cloak was grey and could blend in with any shadow.
There was a bar in the lower levels where Maul could possibly be. I went up the bar tender and asked, "Is there a Sith Lord here named Maul." He nodded to a figure in the back with a black cloak.
So...that's where he is. I slipped over to where Maul sat and he instantly recognized me. "You should not have come here," Maul said with a venomous tone. I looked at him and shook my head.
"I have some questions for you," I said. "Is this an interrogation that the Jedi set up," Maul growled. "I just want to know why you saved us in the first place," I said quietly.
Maul then tended up and didn't answer. He then got up and started walking away. "Hey! I'm not finished with you yet," I shouted as he walked out into an alley way.
He then grabbed me and pushed me up against the wall. "Make your voice any louder, I will not hesitate to cut your throat," he said putting his hand on my throat. I was choked for a few minutes before he released his hand around my throat.
"But why? Why did you save us?" I asked again. He released me and paced around. He then replied, "I'm not certain. But I felt a need to protect you." Maul then put a hand on one of my cheeks and stroked it softly.
I leaned into his touch for a moment before a scolding myself. 'Kiara, you have to stop doing that!' I put his hand down and blushed in embarrassment.
I couldn't help but throw my arms around him. There was no second thought. He tensed up, and I said, "I don't understand why you are on the Dark Side then. You've done something that I owe you for. I am eternally in your debt."
Maul slowly melted into the embrace and hugged me back a bit tighter. He then takes my face in his hands and looks at my eyes. "You have those same aqua-grey eyes that your brother has. But yet...you two have such different personalities and stories behind those eyes. I suppose you have heard the story of what I did to his master."
I slowly nodded my head. "Qui-Gon Jinn was almost like a father I never had. But, that doesn't entirely make me put judgement upon you, or hate you." Maul looked up at me with surprised eyes.
Just then we heard someone approach us. "Kiara?!" a familiar accented voice said in surprised. No....no, no, no! "Obi-Wan?! What are you doing here?!" I said in fear. "I could ask you the same thing...I thought I told you not to go anywhere near him," Obi-Wan said in betrayal.
"I only came to talk. Plus, you have no control over what I do," I snapped back. Obi-Wan then ignited his saber. "I suggest you let her go...." Obi-Wan said.
Maul tightened his grip on me and used a smoke bomb to disappear. Obi-Wan could not see that Maul had taken me on his arms and Force Jumped to a roof. He Force jumped to the top and saw Maul far ahead with Kiara.
He used the Force to speed up his running. Maul then got on a speeder and sped away. Obi-Wan then took a speeder and chase after him.
There was a place where you could shoot at another ship and that is exactly what Obi-Wan did. But, Maul then disappeared and left Obi-Wan confused for a moment.
Maul secretly was behind Obi-Wan and shot his speeder. Obi-Wan plummeted to the ground just as his speeder exploded, and he was unconscious. The speeder stopped at a ship and Kiara was struggling in his arms.
"Put me down! You have no right to kidnap me," Kiara screamed. Maul then said, "I already did." He then knocked her out with the Force.
She felt limp in his arms, and he placed her in a cot in the ship.
The ship took off and sped off to a planet in the outer rim....
