Tera slept for a long time. She didn't realize how exhausted her body was, until she had passed out on the ship. It didn't even matter though. The sleep gave her a moment of piece after all the chaos of the last day or so. Wow. It had only been a day and her "nap" had been the longest part of it. It was at least long enough for them to transport her, because the next thing she knew, she was on top of a plush bench and something wet was touching her face. She sprung up from her spot, causing her head to spin. But she immediately went into defense mode and made herself ready for whatever was in front of her.

The First Order officer remained stoned faced as she watched the pilot. She could care less that this girl wanted to fight her. There was nowhere for her to go. The officer's hair was pulled back into a bun and her head was covered by a cap. Her uniform was clean and orderly, and she was most put together person had seen since entering the custody of the First Order. Tera also realized that the cause of the water was a wash cloth she was using to clean Tera's face. Tera looked her up and down a few times, before deducing she was of no threat to her. At least at that present moment.

"What do you want?" Tera asked.

The officer rolled her eyes and put down the cloth, standing. "I have been tasked with preparing you for the ceremony."

"Ceremony." Tera asked, very confused. "What ceremony?"

"You are to be married to Kylo Ren before Star Killer Base has charged."

Tera stood quickly. "What the hell are you talking about?"

"The Supreme Leader has ordered that you be joined with the Leader of the Knights of Ren."

Tera couldn't believe this. She, in a matter of hours, had become a prisoner, then a death sentence, and now, some kind of royalty. "I am in charge of dressing you and making you presentable for the Supreme Leader and Kylo Ren."

"And what if I don't comply? What if I don't want this?"

As if on cue, the door flew open, and two Troopers walked in, guns ready. "Then you will be taken out."

"What if I don't fear death?"

"Then you will experience something far greater then death." Tera watched as a silver Storm Trooper, one like she had never seen before, walked in. It was a female voice from what she could tell. "Now…..put on the dress and listen to Officer Nassar. Ren is waiting for you."

To say Tera felt uncomfortable in their choice of dress was an understatement. She didn't mind the jewelry, or the makeup…..even the heels they forced her to wear. What she didn't like was the ceremonial black dress they put her in. The high neckline made her feel like she was choking and the mix of the flowy fabric and the two thigh high slits made her feel as if she could be exposed at any minute.

She was escorted to the ceremony by Officer Nassar and Captain Phasma, coming to know the silver Trooper's name. Tera could feel all the eyes of everyone on the base staring at her. They must be thinking the same thing as her. Why would a Resistance pilot be forced to marry the Leader of the Knights of Ren? It was totally insane.

The small party came up to a large window, overlooking the base they were on. No, it wasn't a base. It was a whole planet. She watched outside the window as the planet seemed to be sucking the energy from the sun into itself. She was so memorized that she almost didn't notice when Captain Phasma stopped in front of her. She stopped herself from running into her, and saw why they had stopped.

Kylo Ren watched as Tera approached him with Captain Phasma and Officer Nassar. She was so engulfed in watching Star Killer charging up, that she almost ran into Phasma. Anyone on the outside couldn't tell, but he smirked ever so slightly from underneath his mask. Tera looked at him and frowned. He felt the same, but he had to do this. It was the order of the Supreme Leader.

"I'll take her from here." He said, and held out his arm to Tera. Phasma and Nassar stepped aside and let the girl step forward. That was when Ren got his first good look at her. Without the dried blood, bruises, and a nice outfit, she was actually quite a beautiful woman. Her hair up so high letting her jaw line be seen and her green eyes popped from her pale face and dark hair. That feeling in the back of his mind kept nagging at him again, but he pushed it away and took Tera's arm.

She lazily gave it to him, not wanting him to get any satisfaction out of the matter, and Ren led her back to the assembly room. As they door to the room slid up, Tera took a step back, shocked at the grand presence of Snoke. Ren squeezed her arm tightly, causing her to look at him. He seemed to nod, trying to, in some weird way, comfort her, and he led her inside. Hux was standing at Snoke's feet, obviously aggravated that he was here, instead of preparing for his speech. Hux, being a high ranking general, was to preside over the ceremony and marry the couple. He, more than anyone, did not understand the Supreme Leader's desire for the two to marry.

The young couple made their way up to an alter that had been set up after Kylo's meeting with Leader Snoke. It was covered in black fabric, that when the light hit it just right, it would appear red. It also had a cup and a book on it and once Tera was close enough, she could see the delicate black stone ring that would, in a short time, be on her finger.

"We gather here today, as the Supreme Leader, the Force, and all manner of the universe have brought together this man and woman to be joined together." As Hux began reading from the book, Tera could feel Snoke's eyes burning holes into her as she stood with Kylo Ren. She felt that same burning feeling in her mind, but she kept her guard up. "This ceremony is not only the brining together of two people, but strengthening the power of the Dark Side; the power of the Knights of Ren."

Kylo shifted slightly in place and Tera turned to look at him, but after the brief moment of being unsure, he remained still. "It is said that, "by Imperial law, when the Emperor takes a wife, she becomes his property, obliged to obey his every word and bow down before him whenever he wishes a show of obedience"." Oh great, Tera thought. He's reading from that ancient book. "As a Lady of Ren, this woman will bow before her husband and act as he pleases." Hux smirked at this last remark, obviously at Tera's own expense. "And in doing so, will bring power to the Force and the Supreme Leader."

Hux looked from Tera to the floor, trying to signal the woman to kneel before Kylo Ren. She scoffed, but bit her lip to keep from saying something. Tera reluctantly kneeled before the masked man as he lifted the cup from the table and gave it to her to drink. It was a red drink, and smelt unlike anything she had ever come across. As Ren brought it to her mouth and made her drink, it burned as it slid down her throat, almost causing her to retch. But she kept it down as Ren returned the cup to its place on the table. Hux continued.

"As a Knight of Ren, a leader in the First Order, you must help your wife produce many children who will fight for the Dark Side." Never mind, Tera did puke a little inside her mouth, but forced it down. She was just here to be a breeding machine for the First Order. Maybe they even hoped her future children would have the Force. However, she wasn't about to let Kylo Ren anywhere near her. "You will guide your bride in the ways of the Dark Side and make her worthy of you."

Ren took Tera's hands and helped her off of the cold ground. He then reached for the ring and placed it on her left hand. "May you be one with each other and serve the First Order." Hux finished, closing the book. Ren took her hands in his gloved ones and bent down, touching what would be his forehead to her hands. A surge of energy suddenly passed through Tera as a image of a young man, maybe fourteen entered her mind. He was crying.

And with that, Tera's life had changed forever.

Hey guys! Sorry this took so long to get put up. I tried to find anything on wedding in the Star Wars universe, but could only find the one quote. I hope you enjoy and aren't too taken aback by the timeline and it being so quick. Just imagine it in terms of the movie.

Here is the link to my interpretation of Tera's outfit: (just copy/paste) tera_ordona_across_stars/set?id=231472704

Also, I have this planned out to the end of Force Awakens, but have yet to see the Last Jedi, so please no spoilers in the comments! Thanks!
