Wow you really don't remember? Or maybe you're just not the Van I know...he's was my caretaker...you told him to keep an eye on me until the day I had to fulfill a prophecy...hehe, of course... I wasn't planning to sit around for seven years only to be sent to my death.

[stares back at him, eyes wide; this could have been the Luke he created]

...You knew what the Score said?

He took pity on me and told me everything. What you were planning to do, and why I was still alive despite my defects...

[stiffens; he didn't believe that his death would come so soon, of course, that was his mistake]

Why haven't you killed me ye, if it's truly that easy for you?

...

[can feel his fonons be drained, knowing that he'll lose them all if this continues; so with the strength he has left, he slams his elbow back into Luke's chest, hoping that'll be enough to get him off]

Oof- hehehe, still have some fight in you? How exciting.

[he can't win, he know he can't win; he doesn't like the idea of it but he has no choice,

he starts to run away]

Where do you think your going?

[feels something in his arm snap; and he nearly screams]

...well I see you found Van. {Although he sounds surprised, it is more likely that he had been watching the scene for a while.]

[turns to look at the voice, eyes slightly wide with a mix of surprise and shame; to think that anyone else saw this...]

...Fon Master?

Have you come to watch me kill him?

Ah, hello there Van. It has been far too long, and it's too bad our meeting here may be short. [Smiles at nebby!Luke.] ...and yes. I would never dream of interfering...

...Ion? [gives him a wide-eyed look] Why are you...?

How boring. I thought you'd be a little more fun, my creator. Oh well...

Now, now don't play with your... [Ion lets his smile grow wider. He kneels down close to the two. He reaches out to pat Van's head softly.] How much longer do you wish to live?

[looks up at Ion, shocked]

You want to see me die?

Well I know I do. There's reason for him to stay alive.

[Ion raises his hand a little towards Luke.] Now Van, I was trying to be generous. Did I not ask you how much longer do you wish to live? I was considering maybe this time we could let you be on your way.

[hisses at the sword pressing into his back, then looks back at Ion; it's shameful but...he's not ready to die, not again]

...I want to live for a few more days. [that should be enough for him to form a strategy]

... You honestly don't think I'll just let him live because you said so after what he did.

I do not mean to end your fun. [Ion looks thoughtful for a second.] If I did not think Van had his uses, why I would have done away with him myself. Isn't that right Van? [He pets Van's head, in an unnatural loving manner.]

[this is humiliating, to think he would be brought down this low]

...Of course, Fon Master.
