"Does anyone else feel like we're forgetting something?" Sabine raised her voice in the ship's silence.

"The only thing we are missing is Galen. Then we are heading back to base and we are going to help Maul get back to his normal self." Kanan spoke sensing some tension in the room. Pulling his attention over to one side of the ship he could sense anger, jealousy, confusion, sorrow and a cocktail of other emotions pouring from Maul. Kanan could tell that Obi-wan and Feral were whispering to each other about something.

Maul had looked like an outcast as Feral had pulled Obi-wan away from Maul to talk to him. Maul didn't know what to think. The first thing he remembers is waking up from an electric shock, trying to eat and the first two people he sees is his brother and Obi-wan. Obi-wan had coxed and relaxed him. Obi-wan had made Maul feel safe.

Then after Sidious had shown up, he watched as Feral and Obi-wan tried to protect each other. Maul could barely hear anything anyone was saying as anger filed him. He was sure Sidious had said something but he had to get answers from Obi-wan. He had to talk but he couldn't, he just felt so angry. He remembers Obi-wan saying something then Obi-wan and Feral arguing over something. Feral had pulled Maul's attention away from Obi-wan. The look in Feral's eyes were ones that just dared Maul to fight him. Ones that wouldn't let his attention go anywhere else. Feral had snarled and Maul had attacked him before his brother had the first move. Maul could hear Obi-wan and the others talk to Feral, they were encouraging the fight?

Why was Obi-wan telling Feral who to defeat him? Did Obi-wan want Maul to lose? Did Obi-wan not want Maul anymore? Was that why he was protecting Feral? Did Obi-wan choose Feral instead of Maul while Maul was captured? Maul couldn't lose this fight if it meant losing Obi-wan as his mate. Maul had kicked Feral to the ground. When Maul picked Feral up, he saw how terrified Obi-wan had looked. Had Obi-wan truly chose Feral over him? just as Maul thought he was winning the battle, Feral's still body had suddenly moved and before Maul knew it his nose and shoulder were broken. Just as he got up, he was thrown backward and the sound of his horns breaking rang through his head and as he fell he could only see Feral standing. His vision blacked out before he hit had hit the ground.

His memory fades in and out as he remembers the hospital and the droids and vaguely of the dreams he had. How they ever got blood was out of Maul's knowledge, but Maul once Maul felt strong enough to look around, he expected to see an empty room. However, Feral, his opponent, his brother, was on another bed next to him. He must have succumbed to his wounds sometime after the fight.

Once they were taken back to their cell, Maul came face to face with Obi-wan. He couldn't tell if Obi-wan was happy or disappointed with how the fight ended, or with how Feral had won. Maul couldn't read any sort of emotion from Obi-wan. It had frightened him, but he could play the same game. He wouldn't let him know how he felt.

He wouldn't.

Until Obi-wan placed his hand on Maul's cheek. Maul broke his facade as he started to cry and he had quickly pulled Obi-wan into a hug. Maul was scared of letting him go.

The next morning came and Thrawn was there with other Imperial officers to transfer them to some other facility. Until some fighting droids broke into their cell and someone had pulled Maul out of the cell. An Imperial officer had handed Maul his old weapon as if Maul knew what to do and before he knew anything everyone was running. Maul struggled to keep up with everyone as all the pain in his body made itself known. He had fallen and watched as everyone kept running until Obi-wan had noticed he had fallen. Obi-wan had yanked him off of the ground then pushed Maul away from him. Maul had fallen to the ground barely finding any strength to stand. Once more he was pulled off of the ground and was suddenly onto a ship.

Maul was pulled from his thoughts as he heard what sounded like a growl emanate from Feral and he noticed a concerned look on Obi-wan's face. Maul and Feral had made eye contact and Maul quickly looked away.

"So what are we going to do now?" Maul heard Obi-wan ask

"I don't know. I'll figure out something. Hopefully, it'll be soon and I won't have to fight him again. We barely made it out alive and the next time one or both of us might not make it out alive. I don't want to leave you alone with Sidious and his Imperials still hunting you Jedi." Feral replied to Obi-wan

"You know that you don't have to worry about me, I have been on my own before. I can take care of myself." Obi-wan stated with a hint of a joke and Feral chuckled at it.

Maul sat there staring at his lap. His mind racing. The conversation he had overheard did not help his fear of losing Obi-wan either. What were they talking about? Were they talking about getting rid of him? Maul held his head and closed his eyes. He just wanted to block everything else out and go back to sleep. So much had happened had he could process everything clearly, he felt like his head was going to explode.

He felt someone sit next to him and he barely opened his eyes to see that Obi-wan had sat down next to him. Feral had followed Obi-wan to the seats, however, decided to stay standing. Without a sound, Maul stood up, walked across the ship, and sat down next to Ahsoka. He didn't know who he could trust, but he remembered that Ahsoka was there with him through it all. He could remember that it was her voice and her touch that pulled him through all those nights. He could remember her talking to him even when he just wanted to be alone. He could trust her. He hoped he could trust her.
