Anakin gave a small shrug. No, he hadn’t been told. It was hard to wrap his head around the fact that Wyndel would name his child after him, after Vader. A man who hadn’t cared for him in the slightest.
“Really…no one should be finishing what Darth Vader started.” He said. “I saved my son and killed the Emperor. There wasn’t much of a plan after that. I’m still confused as to this goal that has been placed before you all.” He shook his head. “If you want to take Kylo’s place, by all means. Start fighting amongst yourselves. Its what the influence of the Dark Side is great at.” No, he wouldn’t call them Sith. That’s not what they were.
“You saved your son, but threw the Galaxy into chaos.” He stated bluntly, “If anything, it was a mistake on both parts, but I can agree that the Dark Side does have a way of making them fight against each other.”
Kader then smirked for a moment, “Do you know why, Dear old Dad decided against teaching me about the Force until I was old enough to make my own decisions? He knew what would happen, but you know what? Here I am anyways and you? Well, it seems you coming back was unexpected, but he always talkedabout you.”
“No wonder he worked so hard for you to come back… just so he could abandon everything for the so called Chosen one.”
Anakin watched him wearily, but didn’t move away from him. “Perhaps, I know him more than you do.” He offered, shrugging slightly. He knew there could be some truth…but if Wyndel only cared for himself, he wouldn’t have tried so hard to bring him back, would he..?
“Oh, I’d think Kylo would like that very much.” He agreed. “Tell me, how does my grandson hand out rewards?” He asked. “He doesn’t seem like the generous type.”
His head tilted at Anakin, it would be only a matter of time before he said something idiotic, but at least for now? For now, he simply let out a laugh, “No, he doesn’t seem to be, but he is.
“However, you seem to forget something, but has he told you? Has he told you I was named after the infamous Darth Vader?” He asked with an eyebrow lifted, “If anyone should be following in what Vader started? It should be ME and not Kylo Ren…. Xylek made sure of that.”
Anakin let out a long breath, shrugging and shaking his head. “It baffles me as well. I thought he stopped caring for me long ago..” When he’d found out the truth about Vader.
“We’re important to each other.” He said, “it doesn’t make sense to either of us, honestly. But, we care deeply for each other.” They were both simply disasters, and it worked.
“Care deeply for each other?” Kader couldn’t help, but snort at that, “I highly doubt that. He doesn’t care for anyone, but himself.” He then made his way towards Anakin, “Trust me on that information. The only person he’s ever cared for has been himself.”
“Maybe you should accept that before he tortures your for weeks or even better yet?” He shook his head for a moment, “No, I think I will let you be his down fall, but then again? I think Kylo would enjoy it if I dragged you to him. I might even get something out of it.”
Anakin watched the other, crossing his arms over his chest. “These are interesting times to say the least.” He told him dully. “To be fair…this isn’t the best time to be a Skywalker. With everyone on the hunt for Luke.” He said. He knew Wyndel had lost himself for a while…it made sense why the other hadn’t talked about him. “And…considering who Vader was, I don’t exactly blame him.”
“Very interesting it seems, but I wonder why you are even here. I could say a few guesses, but honestly? I have no clue why he would risk his neck for someone like you.”
“I think it simply might be due to the fact he’s grasping at straws.” Kader then chuckled lightly, “Tell me… why are you so important to him? The last time he was this secretive he was running off to the outer reaches for some reason… wasn’t heard from for months.”
“So, you must be the one Wyndel has been so secretive about. I must admit, finding out you were alive was interesting, but he has never said a word about you, Skywalker. Not even a simple… mention… interesting how he brings you back, yes?”
