I slowly walked down the dark halls of the Temple. I didn’t bother to use my lightsaber as a light source; I remembered the Temple corridors like the back of my hand.

                You’re no Padawan of mine. His words were etched into my mind, burning the very trust and happiness away. I was silently crying and I was upset. I wasn’t mad, though. I was too sad to be mad. Again, like many times before, I had let my old Master down. Again.

                That killed me. Every inch of my heart was aching, covering itself in sadness and hiding the shame.

At the same time, I was confused. I didn’t know how he could be disappointed, I only saved our lives. I don’t know what he meant when he said I ‘fell like Anakin fell.’ I wasn’t a murderer. I didn’t kill hundreds of innocent Jedi; I only killed worthless and disloyal clones. That’s not a big deal; clones are replaced every rotation. One dies, another is cloned.

                I don’t know why he couldn’t understand that. I understood everything perfectly.
