Maul was for once in his existence was stunned. The mild panic and adrenaline had worn off and now he needed to think. himself and obi wan kenobi had for some reason or another (probably sidious) been suddenly sitting across from each other at a table they made eye contact with each other and stared for a good thirty seconds.

 Kenobi had promptly let out a half squeak, half growl and used the force to jump into the support beams. Wait, how did they get into a perfectly pristine star destroyer? From the lack of any force signatures other than his own and Kenobi's, it was abandoned. 

Maul quickly got up from the table, grabbed a chair, threw it at Kenobi and got himself out of the empty hanger.

 Why weren't there any ships in here, not even a tie fighter?

First he needed to get his basic needs taken care of so he set off down the halls to find the food storage area. zabraks could go almost a year without water and three standard galactic weeks without a protein source.so a form of sustenance would be his first priority then water then see if he could leave if he couldn't then find a place to sleep where kenobi wouldn't go because he knew kenobi was able to sense as well as maul and he could most definitely sense kenobi.

Walking down the hall he found himself in he felt the urge to rip it apart he hated the color gray when he could he was going to see if there was any paint onboard the ship (despite what some people will say he was not in love with the color red even tho he did like it)he went into the first door that stood out to him and found an entire hanger full of water tanks.there was probably enough for fifty people to live for one hundred years he mused. He hastily marked it down on his mental map and left the next door he came to was pretty far from the first and he opened it to be greeted with a freezer room he couldn't see the far wall of with shelves stacked high with meat. He took a mental note and then set out to find some place Kenobi wouldn't go. His immediate thought was somewhere too hot for a human  and as such he decided to look for the engine room.

He was so far unsuccessful he had found a large training room, a kitchen and a room with various plants coming from every part of the room imaginable.it was at this point he realized he did not have his saber he quickly padded himself down but all he found was a key chain?where did that come from he brought it to his face to get a better look there seemed to be a room number on it he did not have much of anything better do do so he set off to find the room.

This room he decided was his now. There was a flow of molten metal going through the middle of his room. He had promptly set up camp on the other side of the metal flow so that Kenobi was less likely to get to him. which consisted of him ripping apart several captains quarters and dragging their beds to his room and throwing them across the metal flow and piling them in the corner.his room was about the size of eight tie fighters. He had also gathered several pillows and blankets and added them to his bedding. The walls were still gray and boring so he went across the hall to one of the many storage rooms he had found to look for some paint that wasn't gray.surprisingly he had found red, purple, black ,yellow ,and white. He had no clue how to paint so he had just taken some brushes and went at it. He had smeared the walls in the halls and his room with as much of the paint as he could. In the end he had even got some swirls on the ceiling.at this point he was exhausted so he simply fell on his bedding with a “floomp” and passed out

Obi-wan Kenobi was officially freaking out. The first thing he had done after running from Maul was look for his lightsaber.  When he failed to find it at his belt he patted himself down but all he found was a set  of keys.

He then decided to look for the room that the key went to. On the way he had snooped in various rooms and found freezer rooms,garden rooms, storage rooms ,and water storage rooms there was apparently no way off of this hunk of metal.

When he finally found the room the key went to and entered . The  contents of the room were honestly a little shocking. The walls were the same gray as the halls but there were reid matts on the floor and potted plants were everywhere. There was also a  fish pond in the middle of the room with many colorful glowing fish in it. In short the room was fitted perfectly to obi wan's tastes.

Okay he was bored. Was maul still on the ship? Was this even a ship at all? He had not seen any windows or gotten a look outside. Eventually he decided to snoop in the storage rooms .At the end of his endeavor he had dragged a mattress and blankets into the corner of his room . He had also collected(hoarded) several interesting and colorful rocks along the edges of his room.

He was still bored so he stared at the wall “hahahehe” he said to himself out loud he was gonna paint his walls. He therefore made his way back to the storage room to find some paint.

When he was satisfied with his haul he put it in the red wagon he had found and took it back to his room.he had ,blue ,green ,white ,black ,yellow ,silver ,gold , and an assortment of brushes that were big, small, soft, hard , and everything in between.

At the end of his paint extravaganza the paint was everywhere the paint was on him the paint was on the walls the paint was on the ceiling the paint was in and on the halls . Overall the majority of things within a thirty meter radius were very colorful. 

He was still bored so he sat in his wagon and used the force to push himself down the halls. There was still paint in the cart so he took the can, opened it, stuck his hand in and dragged neon green paint on the wall with his bare hand while still moving.

Eventually he came to a stop in front of one of the food storage rooms and filled his wagon with bantha cheese puffs.

He was shocked to see a shirtless sleepwalking maul in the halls muttering about evil tookas eating his horns. He most definitely did not panic. He meant to throw his cheese puffs at maul and drag his wagon back to his room.” i meant to do that” .he told himself while hiding underneath his many fluffy blankets with his remaining bag of cheese puffs.

When he woke up he was absolutely covered with bantha cheese powder. 

The next thing he decided was that he needed a trip to the ‘fresher he vaguely remembered a door in his room that he had painted blue so he went inside it led to a quiche and two other doors one led to a closet with a clothes ‘fresher and the other was a ‘fresher he found towels in the closet and then clean himself he also put his clothes in the washer.

Surprisingly he found clothes similar to anakins robes in the closet. Then set about snooping in the kitchen he discovered that the fridge was fully stocked as well as the freezer and cabinets he grabs a head of lettuce and some dressing then walks into his newly painted hallway only to remember why no one let sleep deprived him near paint. “ Oh dear” the hall to the left of his room was neon orange! His immediate reaction was to bring the palm of his hand to his forehead  but the only thing this accomplished was the lettuce poking his eye “hmf” he sighed. 

He wanted off of this hunk of metal.
