A/N Hello everyone! We are back with a new Reylo fanfic "Bound by Stars".
It's a fairytale with Kylo and Rey as main characters. We hope you will like this story as much we do *.* Before starting your reading, we want to tell that the main idea came to us when we were listening to two songs by Kamelot "Forever" and "Wander". If you have an opportunity to listen to them, we highly recommend you to do so, because the fic is filled with the atmosphere the songs give.
So, now let's read, shall we? ^_^
Bound by Stars
Chapter 1
Once upon a time there were two Kingdoms ruled by wise and outstanding leaders, but unfortunately they were not fond of each other and didn't have good relations at all.
At those times there lived a beautiful, kind and golden-hearted fairy, who could understand what stars were telling. And lots of people went to meet the fairy to know what awaited them in their lives.
So, the rulers of those two Kingdoms also wanted to find out what fate would meet their Kingdoms.
And one day they both rode to the fairy's palace.
King Obi-Wan arrived earlier than the other ruler, and so he took a pink baby blanket in his hands and walked into the room, where the fairy was sitting.
The old man gripped the blanked tighter as he approached the beautiful woman.
"I knew you would come, king Obi-Wan, the ruler of Coruscant Kingdom," she said with a smile.
He bowed to her and reached for the corner of the pink fabric to open the baby's sleeping face.
"Please, tell me, what awaits this little child in the future. Will she be happy?" he asked emotionally, showing a sleeping baby-girl in his hands. "Her name is Rey and she is a princess of faraway Jakku Kingdom that has been devoured by a cataclysm. Unfortunately, her parents died there and she was brought to me by the only survivor Magister Yoda. I took her in as my own granddaughter and promised to raise her the best I can, since I knew her parents. They were very good people and I am grieving over their death."
The fairy smiled sadly, looking at the little girl, who had lost everything, and said gently.
"Little Rey will be one of the happiest princesses in the world, because she will meet her soul mate in her life and find true happiness by his side. This is what stars prepared for her. She will never be alone. This child is special. I feel great power in her."
The king's face brightened as he held the dear princess close to his heart.
"Tell me, my good friend, who will it be? Who will become my granddaughter's soul mate?"
The fairy smiled warmly.
"That boy is only 10 years older than Rey. You will meet him very soon. He is coming here too."
And the next moment the door opened and assertive king Anakin entered the room with a boy, who held the man's hand. They both were dressed in luxury royal black clothes and they had the atmosphere of might around them.
"Here he is!" exclaimed the fairy. "Prince Ben Solo!"
King Obi-Wan threw a look full of disgust towards a newcomer and his grandson.
"What's with the scary face, old man? Better give us the way. I came to ask about my grandson's fate!" King Anakin said arrogantly and made a step forward. He bowed to the woman and inquired her politely.
"So, dear fairy, tell me please, what awaits my heir in the future. I feel great power in him and I know that he will become a legendary king and will continue our outstanding royal bloodline. Just confirm my expectation, dear fairy. "
The fairy showed a soothing smile, glancing at the pink blanket in the other king's hands.
"Brave king Anakin, the ruler of Nabu Kingdom and the famous leader Darth Vader, your grandson will become a great ruler, indeed, and it will happen, because he will find true happiness in his life! This little princess and prince Ben are destined to be together. Together they will reach the Balance and bring kingdoms to peace and prosperity. They are bound by Stars. This phenomena happens only once in one hundred years, but unfortunately sometimes people can't find their other halves and their lives fill with misery and sadness."
The dark king's eyes glowed with pleasure and pride.
"So, my heir is one of those, who will meet his soul mate! And she is…" he looked eagerly at the baby-girl in king Obi-Wan's hands, "this infant?"
"Yes!" said the fairy, clapping her hands in pure joy.
The boy was about to come closer to the other king and look at the sleeping baby, but got frozen to the spot the moment he heard a heart-rending cry of anger.
"No!" cried the older king, hiding his granddaughter's face with a blanket. "It will never happen! Never in my life will I give her to your spoilt grandson! You and your family is lack of the sense responsibility! Back off, Skywalker! You and your daughter's scion will never have my pure flower and if you ever dare to do anything stupid to take her away from me, then I will declare war!"
With those words king Obi-Wan sent a despiteful glare to the bewildered boy, who ran to his grandfather and gripped his hand in fright.
With a loud 'hm!'-sound the ruler of Coruscant Kingdom left.
King Anakin just blinked in astonishment to the older ruler's sudden outburst. He knelt beside his shocked grandson and took him into a hug.
"Ben, I promise, he will pay for humiliating us…just he waits…no one dares to despise our glorious name and look down on us."
The prince looked into his king's eyes doubtfully.
"I don't want it. That man is mad."
Anakin Skywalker smirked like he always did in the situation that made his blood boil in challenge. That smile belonged to the famous leader and commander Darth Vader – the conqueror and the legend of any war.
"You will get this girl, my dear heir. I promise you that. We will just wait till she grows up and then we will make our move."
As the prince continued staring at his grandfather's brave face, he decided to put up with the elder's demands. After all, grandfather Anakin had never betrayed him. He was a reliable person, not like his parents, who left him five years ago only to fulfill their desire of travelling. Princess Leia had followed her husband earl Han Solo, who was dying from boredom in the Kingdom, and joined him in their hunt for adventures. They sent their son letters, Birthdays gifts and post-cards, but they had never come to see him after their departure. Not even once. His grandparents – king Anakin and queen Padme – were the only real family to him since then. Oh, there was always uncle Luke, who ran his own school for elite warriors-peacemakers, but he lived in a far-away land, which reminded of an army barracks. Prince Ben was happy that king Anakin declined uncle Luke's kind offer to teach his nephew. So now Ben was the only student, whose teacher was the famous Darth Vader. Those, who had heard the name, draw back in fear.
"I agree, grandfather," was all the young prince uttered.
