A moment went by. A moment of doubt, of uncertainty but when it ended, their hands met. Rey looked into his eyes and saw the darkness retch. She knew that if she wanted to fight this war, she was going to have to do it from the other side.

Kylo smirked and released his grip. He knew the power in this girl was strong but he hadn't known how easy it was to obtain. She's just an orphan trying to find a place to belong, a place where people wanted her. He knew all too well on what it felt like to be unwanted… Maybe that was why the story he fed her actually worked.

"Let us begin anew, Rey."

Instead of responding, Rey turned for the entrance of the room. She was stepping into the grasps of the First Order, leaving behind the people who have fought for her, who have died for her. Already she knew that this wasn't going to be easy, that if she wanted to take down the First Order, she needed to be focused and ready for anything. The people of the Resistance would need to trust her, to have hope. This war was just beginning and her battles were destined to be fought on the other side.

Just as both bodies reached the entrance of the room, a shockwave hit them. With it brought silence. All matter upon the ship shifted as gravity itself seemed to have ripped. Within a millisecond it was over and the blaring noise of reality returned. Alarms blared throughout the ship, relaying critical damage had been done. Immediately Kylo turned to Rey and pinned her in mid air using the Force. She struggled to break free but kylo could already hear the footsteps coming.

General Hux, followed by four stormtroopers entered the room, but before they could take in the carnage that laid before them, Kylo turned and narrowed his gaze, having it fully focused on Hux.

"Restrain her and put her under maximum security. I order that she is watched at all times and is not to be underestimated. This is my first order as reigning Lord Supreme."

The general in response motioned to the troopers as they rushed to follow order.

"Snoke is dead," he stated as his eyes looked past Kylo Ren and onto the severed body of their old Supreme Leader, "and you let him die."

"She struck before anyone had the chance," Kylo sneered. It was a lie, but the only other person who knew the truth was fighting for the wrong side.

Hux turned to face the jedi, anger plastered on his face. "He is dead nonetheless and you were the one who allowed it. Who do you think you are calling yourself Supreme Leader?"

Kylo's hand shot up, tightening his force around the General's throat.

"I am the new leader of the First Order," with each word his grip got tighter, "and you will follow me or you can go die with the rebels."

The grip released and Hux fell to the floor gasping, heaving on his knees.

"Y-yes Supreme Leader."

The cell was cold. Almost as cold as that day in the forest; almost as cold as his heart. The same heart that had tricked her so easily. But Rey wouldn't allow this to be the end, it couldn't be. She took Kylo's hand for a reason, she knew that maybe in the slightest, he genuine and he really did want her by his side. Then again, slight chances weren't going to get her out of this cell, and the most certainly weren't going to save her from the death that most of the ship's crew thought she deserved.

~Hello! Thank you so much for reading! This is my first story so I'm sorry if things are a bit rough (I have no idea what I'm doing), but more chapters will be coming soon! Again, thank you!~
