Chapter two:
Vader grabs the boys hand and pulls him up so he can stand. He then forces him through the door and makes him walk down the hallway. They turn and another door opens showing a row of tables and chairs.
Sit, Vader commanded him. A soldier walks over to Vader and gives a short boy.
Give him anything he desires treat him as you would treat me. Said Vader to the officer. With that the Sith Lord walked out of the room. The officer walks towards the boy and looks at him bewildered.
Your lucky to be alive. He said.
Hours later Vader returned. Come with me, he said to the boy. As they were walking Vader thought he would try to learn more about the boys origins.
What's your name? Vader asked him. The boy looked up at him and responded. My name is Cale Lestin. As the boy talked Vader could tell that some of the death had left his eyes and he seemed to be more aware of his surroundings.
He looked at Vader and said. I chose to die why have I been spared. Vader really didn't know himself but he gave him this response.
People that would rather live and lose their pride then die with honor don't deserve to serve the Empire. Said Darth Vader. The door to the shuttle closed and the ship blasted off towards the Executor. As the doors opened back up a Commander stepped in front and says. My Lord the Emperor would like to speak with you.
While I talk to Emperor start heading to the Death Star I want to see it's progress. Replied Darth Vader. Vader and Cale walked to a room that was very dark and suddenly Vader got on one knee and knelt towards what appeared to be nothing.
Then a hologram appeared of a very old man. Vader quickly grabbed Cale's arm and jerked him down to get him to also bow. He felt as if he ripped his arm off. The man then spoke. It is good to see you my old friend.
The feeling is mutual my Master. Replied Darth Vader. Cale couldn't believe it this is the man that everyone feared. He was the only person that Darth Vader the Dark Lord of the Sith would obey.
And who is this? Asked the Emperor.
His name is Cale Lestin and he comes from Raven 5 the Force is strong with this one Master. I thought you could take him as one of your Hands and train him. Replied Darth Vader. The Emperor then closed his eyes and breathed in heavily.
No, I will not train him you will take him as your apprentice he seems to want it that way. The Emperor said as he smiled. How did he know what he was thinking he thought.
Yes, my Master. Replied Darth Vader.
The reason I have called you is that it's time to revisit the planet of Kashyyyk. I trust you know what to do. Said Emperor Palpatine. The transmission then ended.
Darth Vader rose but Cale still bowed towards his new Master. Vader in a deep dark voice said. Do you wish to learn the ways of the dark side of the Force. He responded with. If you teach I will learn.
Hence forth you shall be known as Darth Rift. Now rise. Said Darth Vader.
Yes, my Master. Replied Cale Lestin.
