Mar's Mercy

Mar heard Serenity's voice and much to his surprise it made him pause. He relinquished his grip on Ripper's lungs and looked to his padawan. He didn't notice the lightsaber flying towards him until Serenity deflected it. Mar was confused, then realized why Serenity was so distressed. She feared the dark side, and at the moment he was reveling in it. He sighed.

"Serenity..." He wanted to berate her, but he knew it was fruitless. He merely nodded to her in acknowledgement of her saving his neck. Then he turned to Ripper, "This is your lucky day... It seems everyone here is more interested in sparing your life. Normally I would kill you... I should kill you because I am beginning to understand just what you did to that girl... I won't give you a choice, however. No, you won't surrender." He gripped his lightsaber tighter. "Run away, and carry this warning with you. If you dare pursue Ghost, my padawan, or anyone else here, I will not be so merciful next time... I will do everything in my power to grant you the most painful death I can visit upon you... So do not sully my eye with the sight of you ever again... Do we have an understanding?"
