Eight Silent Ways to Kill a Jedi

"Come here my young Apprentice," Plagueis ordered his star pupil who he had bestowed the Sith name of Darth Sidious.

"Yes, my Master," Sidious obliged studiously, "What is your request?"

"I will now teach you something very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very important, do you understand, my young Apprentice," Plagueis instructed him.

"Will it be the manipulation of midi-chlorians, my Master?" Sidious asked with glee.

"Manipulation, bah...," Plagueis scolded him, "What I am about to teach you will be invaluable compared to the mere manipulation of midi-chlorians."

Wow, what could possibly be more awesome than that?" Sidious wondered with sincere piqued interest.

"Come down," Plagueis stated as he patted him on the head, "Patience is a virtue."

"Yeah, but death is golden," Sidious blurted out, "And midi-chlorian manipulation is really what I was looking forward to you teaching me."

"All in good time, my young Apprentice," Plagueis oozed out through gritted teeth, "Now, are you ready for my instruction?"

"I am ready, Master," Sidious bowed in reverence to his Master.

"I will teach you in reverse order the number of different silent ways to kill a Jedi," Plagueis started his lesson, "Number Eight.... drum roll.... is by exercise!"

"Exercise?" Sidious questioned him, "What does exercise have to do with killing a Jedi?"

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it?" Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master, are you alright?" Sidious interrupted his musing.

"Ah.... see what happened there?" Plagueis beamed with his ugly teeth.

"Nope. What happened?" Sidious wondered if his Master had lost it completely.

"That was an exercise, wasn't it?" Plagueis beamed at him again with his gnarly teeth.

"What exercise?" Sidious asked confused, "You didn't teach me any exercise."

"Ahhh.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Just forget it," Sidious interrupted his musing again, "What's the next silent way to kill a Jedi?"

"Ah, yes, the seventh silent way to kill a Jedi is by talking," Plagueis told him plainly.

"Talking about what?" Sidious questioned him.

"Ah... now that's the trick isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master, what are you talking about?" Sidious wondered again if his Master had lost it.

"That's what I just instructed you about," Plagueis answered him succintly, "Talking. The number seven silent way to kill a Jedi. Get it."

Sidious did not, so he just skipped ahead again instead, "Yes. Now what is the next silent way to kill a Jedi?"

"The sixth silent way to kill a Jedi is by walking," Plageuis told him straightly.

"Walking... isn't that pretty similar to exercise?" Sidious asked befuddled.

"Ah... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master, please," Sidious begged him while once again interrupting his Master's musing, "Just tell me what the next silent way to kill a Jedi is?"

"The fifth silent way to kill a Jedi is by writing," Plagueis told him proudly.

"Writing? How the hell do you kill a Jedi by writing?" Sidious barked loudly.

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master, pullllease stop!" Sidious moaned starting to feel queasy from all of his Master's musing, "Please tell me the next silent way to kill a Jedi?"

"The fourth silent way to kill a Jedi is by wandering," Plagueis told him boldly.

"Wandering? Where to?" Sidious questioned his Master's logic.

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master!" Sidious barked out again stopping his Master's musing, "Tell me what the next silent way to kill a Jedi is?"

"The third silent way to kill a Jedi is by reading," Plagueis told him bluntly.

"Reading?" Sidious inquired perplexed, "What the hell do I read to a Jedi?"

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Master, Master, Master," Sidious repeated to once again interrupt his Master's musing, "Just tell me the next silent way to kill a Jedi?"

"The second silent way to kill a Jedi is by treating," Plagueis told him fiercely.

"Treating?" Sidious questioned his Master's response, "Treating him how?"

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Oh Master!" Sidious barged in to interrupt his Master again, "Please, just tell me the number one way to kill a Jedi and make it as brief as possible.

"Wow! I am amazed that you guessed it so easily," Plagueis patted him on the top of his head proudly.

"Guessed what?" Sidious asked him befuddled again.

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Oh, just forget it!" Sidious stormed off upset that his Master had once again mused off to oblivion, "Once he falls asleep, I swear that I'm going to kill him!" he mumbled under his breath.

I liked The Forever War! (Although... that scene with the video... eek...)

"That's what I just instructed you about," Plagueis answered him succintly, "Talking. The number seven silent way to kill a Jedi. Get it."

Talking silently? Interesting...

"Please, just tell me the number one way to kill a Jedi and make it as brief as possible."

Yes... lest they turn the tables on you...


Well done and good story. happy

Probably not tongue

I'd have never thought a Sith could have such a great since of humor!

"Oh Master!" Sidious barged in to interrupt his Master again, "Please, just tell me the number one way to kill a Jedi and make it as brief as possible.

"Wow! I am amazed that you guessed it so easily," Plagueis patted him on the top of his head proudly.

"Guessed what?" Sidious asked him befuddled again.

"Ah.... now that's the trick, isn't it," Plagueis mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused.... and mused....

"Oh, just forget it!" Sidious stormed off upset that his Master had once again mused off to oblivion, "Once he falls asleep, I swear that I'm going to kill him!" he mumbled under his breath.

If Sidious only knew the joke was on him, I think he'd want Plageus back alive just so he could kill him again. tongue
