Chapter 2 - ( Emperor Palpatine's part 2.)

Chapter two:

Emperor Palpatine grabs the boy's 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, Emperor Palpatine commanded him. A soldier walks over to Emperor Palpatine and gives a short bow.

"Give him anything he desires treat him as you would treat me." Said Emperor Palpatine to the officer. With that the dark lord of the Sith walked out of the room. The officer walks towards the boy and looks at him bewildered.

"You're lucky to be alive." He said.

Hours later Emperor Palpatine eturned. "Come with me, he said to the boy. As they were walking Emperor Palpatine thought he would try and learn more about the boy's origins.

"What's your name?" Emperor Palpatine asked him.

The boy looked up at him and responded. "My name is Cale Lestin."

As the boy talked Emperor Palpatine could tell that some of the death had left his eyes and he seemed to be more aware of his surroundings.

He looked at Emperor Palpatine and said. "I chose to die. Why did you spare me?"

Emperor Palpatine really didn't know himself that well but he gave him this response.

"People that would rather die and lose their pride don't deserve to serve the Empire." Said Emperor Palpatine. The door to the shuttle closed and the ship blasted off towards the Eclipse.

As the doors opened back up a Commander stepped in front and said. "My lord, Darth Plagueis would like to speak with you."

"While I talk to Darth Plagueis start heading to the Death Star I want to see its progress." Replied Emperor Palpatine.

Emperor Palpatine and Cale Lestin walked to a room that was very dark and suddenly Emperor Palpatine got on one knee and knelt towards what appeared to be nothing.

Then a hologram appeared of a very old man. Emperor Palpatine 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 Emperor Palpatine.

Cale Lestin couldn't believe it this is the man that everyone feared. He was the only person that Emperor Palpatine the dark lord of the Sith would obey.

"And who is this?" Asked Darth Plagueis.

"His name is Cale Lestin and he comes from Batuu the Force is strong with this one Master. I thought you could take him as one of your Hands and train him." Replied Emperor Palpatine.

Darth Plagueis 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." Darth Plagueis said as he smiled.

"How does he know what I'm thinking?" Cale Lestin said to himself.

"Yes, my Master." Replied Emperor Palpatine.

"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 Darth Plagueis. The transmission then ended.

Emperor Palpatine rose but Cale Lestin still bowed but instead of to Darth Plagueis he bowed towards his new Sith Master. Emperor Palpatine in a deep and dark voice said. "Do you wish to learn the ways of the dark side of the Force?"

He responded with. "If you teach then I will learn."

"Hence forth you shall be known as my Darth Zeth. Now rise." Said Emperor Palpatine.

"Yes, my Master." Replied Cale Lestin.
