A Master and his Apprentice

Ezra 12

After their day on Lothal, they were back in space. Maul has shared some interesting facts to Ezra the day before, It makes sense, of course the Emperor is a Sith, it explains Vader and his inquisitors, it explains Maul... I never knew he was abducted from his home. I guess we've all got reasons for doing what we do, even Maul. Ezra thought. The Zabrak was reading an actual paper book he had with him, Ezra had no idea Maul was the reading type. The human was bored, and Maul was busy, so Ezra had nothing to do. So he decided he would bug the older Zabrak, "Hey Maul, do you having anything to do around here? Games or even some books I can read?" Ezra asked. Maul looked up from the book, he had his thinking face on. "Well I suppose we can train if you want to." Ezra nodded eagerly, Finally! Practice with Maul, this is going to be very interesting, Ezra thought. They decided to work in the cargo bay, Maul and Ezra had their lightsabers out but not activated. They were apparently going to practice Ezra's technique. Ezra attacked first, activating his lightsaber, he struck Maul's saber, Maul had activated his as well. The Zabrak moved fast, he was suddenly behind Ezra, who turned just in time to avoid a strike. Ezra was able to hold his own for a moment, but Maul's strength and experience was superior. The Zabrak disarmed Ezra, leaving the boy on the floor, in Maul's other hand was Ezra's saber pointed at Ezra's neck. "Do you yield my apprentice?" He asked. Ezra smiled, "Yeah, you win". Maul helped Ezra up. Maul handed Ezra's saber back to to him, with a smile. "You've improved much since Malachor, but you still have so much more to learn. Now I would like to show you something, Ezra." Maul said. Ezra followed the Zabrak, curiously. They entered Maul's room, inside there was a bunk, a meditation mat and a box. Maul gestured for Ezra to open the box. Inside of it was a doubled bladed lightsaber. Ezra looked at Maul, wondering why he had another lightsaber, the Zabrak noticed Ezra's confusion, "This lightsaber belonged to my brother, after I was taken prisoner by my former master, the Mandalorians gave it back to me. It means a lot to me, and if you are ever in need of a new lightsaber you can use Savage's." Maul said. The Nightbrother had taken it out and was holding it. He really must care about his brother, Ezra thought. "Thanks, I might take you up on that offer if mine is ever broken or lost again." Ezra said. Maul smiled at the human boy. The master and apprentice left the room planning their next practice lesson.
