For one not used to it like I already am, the power you receive feels like a bolt of lightning being shot straight into your body. It's a heady feeling and can make a person drunk with the power. Absolute power makes it easy for a person to become corrupt.

[One had only to look at Darth Sidious to see where it could all lead at the extreme end of things.]

[demonicbeauty]

[She nods a little bit. Ariadne is intimately familiar with absolute power. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Which is a problem if you're powerless.]

That's no good at all.

[Absently, she rakes her fingers through her hair.]

I have a funny feeling that if he does snap, his first target might be the Winchester boys.

[survivalthroughhate]

I believe I spoke with one of them though he didn't give me his name. They seem to think they can handle him.

[All the way to believing they could take his lightsaber and wield it correctly, something Maul wasn't going to believe until he actually saw it happen.]

I believe they are cocky, arrogant, and far too overconfident for non-Force users. I don't know who they think they're going up against but I don't think they can subdue him if Skywalker goes after them, let alone kill him if the need arises. They'll look like fish after skinning when he's done with them.

[Thanks for that visual, Maul. Ariadne cringes, just slightly.]

They...have a tendency to do that.

Which is what worries me. They're my friends and I don't want them getting hurt.

[survivalthroughhate]

I was that way once. You know what it led me to? Getting cut in half by Obi-Wan. I doubt either of them will survive something like that if it comes to it.

You know them better than I. Would they be open to an alliance with me?

[Maul's willing to work with whoever he has to if it comes to taking down Anakin.]

[demonicbeauty]

[She hesitates there. Under normal circumstances, she would say no immediately. Sam, at least, seems to be too much of a paladin.

But he isn't himself lately, is he?]

Difficult to say. Dean refuses to cooperate with almost anyone but...Sam...

[Sam is just weird right now.]

You'd have to talk to him.

[survivalthroughhate]

I will. Most independent people are foolish but not to the point where they'll risk dying instead of temporarily allying themselves with another.

[Maul pauses.]

Keep yourself safe. If the worst happens, don't hesitate to contact me. If I can't kill him I can at least drive him off if he tries to hurt you or-- [He pauses, thinking of what the flower rats in Deerington had done.] --tries to keep you against your will or anything such as that.

[demonicbeauty]

[Simply, yet sincerely:]

Thank you, Maul.

[She bows her head.]

[survivalthroughhate]

[He tilts his horned head forward in a sort of acknowledgment.]

I do what I can.

[Maul not might be very good at being a good person but he's the best one to call if someone needs to be killed. His talents will serve him well here if he has to go after Anakin.]
