WHAT TWO CHAPTERS IN TWO DAYS?! this will never happen again, it's only because I'm bored out of my fucking mind at work. Much love!
Pandora woke as she always did, to the sound of her alarm after a dreamless night. Reaching across the bed she tapped the alarm and turned on her bedside light. Memories of the night before returning to her, an annoying warmth filling her stomach as Kylo's face formed in her mind. She clenched her jaw in anger and shut her eyes, erasing all thoughts from her mind before getting up from her large bed. Her short night dress fluttered around her thighs as she walked across her room to grab an apple from a small kitchen connected to her room. She had been on Snoke's giant ship for so long she was given a grand room to live in, she had been on this ship for as long as she could remember.
After showering and braiding her hair Pandora went to Kylo's room and knocked on the door, waiting fairly patiently for him to answer. Kylo walked to the door and opened it, and was a little surprised to see Pandora.
"Would you like to train with me this morning Ren? I suppose if we have to be a team we should know how to fight like one." Pandora stated her features neutral. There was no room in her tone for Kylo to argue so he simply nodded his head and followed her to the training room. They walked in sync and in silence down the halls, their matching black capes billowing behind them. It took a few short minutes to reach the training room, the minute they walked in any storm troopers in the room left within seconds.
"I promise to go easy on you." Kylo teased, a smirk growing on his face as he took off his cape and cowl until he was left in black pants and a tight fitting tank top. When he turned around his jaw partially dropped, Pandora wore a tight fitting black jumpsuit, hugging every single one of her luscious curves.
Pandora smirked as she watched Kylo look up and down at her, "Oh well thank you, I promise to go easy on you as well," She cooed, taking out her saber and turning it on, "But then again I might not." Pandora teased further, her pitch black saber humming almost silently at her side.
The two smirked at each other and got in fighting stance, the only noise coming from the kyber crystal crackling in Kylo's saber. Pandora made the first move, lunging at him, Kylo easily blocked her saber with his and the two were face to face. Pandora quickly realized that she could not beat Kylo with strength, he was too tall and was already overpowering her. So she bought herself a moment and kneed him in the side, able to give her enough room to backup a few paces and rethink her attack. Kylo still had a smirk on his face, knowing that she knew she couldn't beat him, he closed the space between them with two long strides and began swinging his saber wildly. Pandora was not impressed and was able to deflect the blows but couldn't land nay of her own. Looking around Pandora spotted a large bench to the left of Kylo, she smirked and without moving she made the bench fly into Kylo's side, knocking him a few feet away.
Kylo got up angrily, his blood boiling, "What the hell?! Did you just hit me with a fucking bench?!" He yelled, his shoulders heaving with his breathing, eyes wide, "Alright if that's how you want to play it!" He mumbled to himself, staring into Pandora's smug eyes.
Pandora shrugged her shoulders at him and ignited the other side of her saber, the double-sided saber twirling around her smoothly. Kylo, renewed strength from anger began attacking wildly, his blows hard and harsh. The two began to engage in a violent dance, sabers moving in graceful arcs and brutal jabs that would kill a man if not deflected. They seemed to fight for hours, analyzing and adapting to each other before their bodies began to tire out, sweat dripping of their faces making the ground slick. One more swing of their sabers brought their faces inches from each other, Kylo towering over Pandora. They stood there looking into each others eyes, and silently agreed to not kill each other today, retreating back to normal standing positions.
"You're a fairly good fighter I suppose." Kylo muttered as they walked over to their clothes, taking a deep breath and clipping his saber to his belt.
"Fairly good?" Pandora clipped, her eyebrow arching as she turned to look at him.
"I didn't mean that as an insult… I was just commenting…" Kylo answered, annoyed at how she was offended over nothing.
"Not all of us need brute strength to destroy our enemies Ren." Pandora whispered as her mind expanded to be one with the force, easily slipping into Kylo's. She created a case of sorts surrounding Kylo, as if he were in a small room.
First Pandora took his voice, blocking off the brain so he couldn't make any noises. Kylo turned to her and slammed his fists against the walls she made, moving his mouth as if he were trying to yell but nothing was coming out. Kylo was filled with rage, he could feel her in every part of him, taking over his mind and body and he was helpless to stop her no matter how hard he tried to push her out.
"You may need your height and your strength to break a man Kylo… But I need nothing but my mind." Pandora spoke in his mind before taking over his nervous system, taking his sight.
Kylo continued to bang against the invisible walls that held him for a moment before standing still, accepting that he was at Pandora's mercy. He looked straight ahead where he knew she was, but he couldn't see her, he could barely feel his own body at this point she had such a hold on him. Pandora smirked cruelly at Kylo before releasing him, Kylo didn't do anything but stare at her.
"You have me beaten in strength I will admit that, but I am much more powerful than you with the force." Pandora left him with that quiet statement before putting on her cloaks and leaving him alone in the training room. Kylo stood there for a moment, looking at the spot she had just been. Reflecting. He had truthfully underestimated her because of her size, her face. She had broken through his defenses as if they weren't there, years of building his mental shields did nothing to stop her. He felt that they were back up and intact, she was no longer in his mind. But he could feel her. The remnants of her, a power he had never felt lingered in an untouched place in his mind. He opened his mind to the force, searching for her, when he found her he asked her to let him in. Only for a moment. To his surprise she let him in.
"Yes?" Her voice came, soft and quiet, hesitant.
"I only want to apologize. I underestimated you." He replied, genuine in his apology and Pandora felt it. Secretly her heart fluttered at his sincerity.
"I forgive you. I'm sorry for invading your mind without asking... I too have a temper that could rival yours." She murmured, a giggle in her voice.
Pandora could feel him smirk at her words, "Even I don't take over someones mind. I would say you have a worse temper." Kylo teased, he heard Pandora laugh but she didn't reply, he felt her slowly close him off from her. But this had been enough for Kylo.
