Kylo wasn't sure what he had expected out of training with Rey, but it certainly wasn't what he was experiencing now. Master Snoke had now pitted the two apprentices against the other and most of their training consisted of Rey trying to up one everything on Kylo. This isn't what he wanted. His decision was meant to cause Rey to fall before him in defeat as she was consumed by the dark side, but instead she was thriving in it. She was even overtaking him. Rey was demonstrating just how powerful she was in their latest exercise.

The two apprentices were commanded by Snoke to lay their sabers aside as they used the force to pull thoughts out of one another's mind. It was a rigorous exercise. Sweat glistened on Rey's forehead and determination marked her face. She was set on defeating Kylo's mind. She was so beautiful… His mind had slipped, he felt Rey's force cut through his thoughts.

Rey sprang forward and kicked up at Kylo. Taken by surprise he stepped back, but his foot slipped and he landed on his back. Rey stood over Kylo, "You're disgusting." She hissed at him.

"Kylo, you mustn't get distracted so easily." Snoke scolded, "Excellent work as always Rey. You have progressed so far."

Kylo was mildly miffed by Snoke's constant praise of Rey since he had dragged her here, but he was slipping. She was distracting. It was hard to think about training when she was always around and looked so attractive. Kylo regretted his rash decision. He pushed himself up and left the arena without a word towards the two. He needed to cool his head.

Back in his room, Kylo thought of what he had done to himself. With the way Rey was progressing he was sure to die. Maybe he deserved that? There was no one who deserved to kill him more than Rey. Not after what he had done. What did it matter though? Kylo ruffled up his hair in an attempt to rid himself of the thoughts of Rey murdering him. Worrying about it wouldn't do anything. Kylo left his room to go train again.

Night had fallen and the guard on watch duty had filed to the back of the compound. Rey took her chance and exited through her quarters' window and ran into the night. She had to get away from the compound. For now, at least, so that she could send a message to master Luke about her plans.

Rey ran what felt like hours, but when she stopped at one of the hills and turned around she could still see the dim lights of the compound. She looked around and saw some shapes of rocky ridges that could hide her form and any light that would be emitted from the transmitter device. She slipped into a crevice and set up her receiver,

"Master Luke!" She spoke in a hushed tone and prayed that he will have heard it.

The blue static coming out of the receiver began to take the shape of master Luke. The elderly man looked at his young apprentice, "Rey!" He called to her, "Are you alright?" He was concerned for her. The warm comfort he provided her spread through her chest,

"Yes, master Luke. Everything is going as you and I planned it to!"

"Wonderful! I am so pleased to hear this Rey, but please, do be careful. Kylo Ren is powerful with the force and may be able to sense what you are up to."

"No need to worry. Something seems to be distracting him." Rey knew what was distracting him, but she would rather keep it under wraps for now. Master Luke didn't have to know that about Kylo.

"Do you see any chance in bringing him back?"

Rey bit her lower lip. In her eyes Kylo was unredeemable, but in the others who had no idea what he has committed he was still capable of saving. Rey felt disgust well up within her again. She was sick from the thought of protecting Kylo from his consequences. She took a deep breath. She had to be careful with those thoughts.

"I am still unsure, master."

She could just make out Luke's look of disappointment. He sighed softly, "Please keep me updated on your situation and please be careful Rey. You are in a very dangerous situation and I want you to return to me safely."

"Of course ma-"

"Rey?"

It was Kylo. Rey swiftly ended the transmission and crouched further into the crevice she was hiding in. What was he doing out here?!

"I know you're out here…"

Still she didn't dare respond.

His boots scrapped against the rocky surface, he was close, so close that Rey could hear him exhale. There was a burning sensation within her. Thoughts of murder whirled all around in her mind. Rey wanted to end this sad excuse of a man right here and now. She had to fight it though. She had to wait for the right opportunity. Rey straightened out, tucked her holographic device away in her garment, and strode out to stand before her rapist.

"What do you want?" She snarled up at him. Kylo's dark eyes darted away from her own and his face scrunched up with discomfort.

"What are you doing out here so late?"

"What do you care?"

Kylo shifted his weight and let out a sigh. He was getting what he deserved he knew that, yet still he longed for Rey to be receptive to him. He wanted what that storm trooper had been given… Kylo had ruined any chance of that however. Why was he tormenting himself over this? He deserved worse than this. So much worse. Why was be dwelling about why she didn't want to be around him?

"I don't," He spat back at her. Aggravation was making its way through his body. His eyes followed as Rey took a step towards him, her eyes were blazing with hatred.

"Then what are you asking for?!" She slammed her shoulder into his as she barged past him. Kylo instinctively reached out and gripped to her fore arm. This angered Rey and she instantly swung her free arm at Kylo, but her physical strength was not even on the same level as his. While her fist slamming into his chest caused a dull pain, Kylo's grip remained. He pulled her closer to him and brought his mouth closer to hers.

"Maybe I wanted to make sure you were alone?" He hissed onto her lips. Rey's behavior became erratic as fear replaced the anger. She was frantically trying to shove Kylo away from her, but he brought his other hand around to hold her arm fast.

Their lips were forced together and Rey groaned in protest at the gesture. Kylo held her against a nearby rock wall and pressed his body into Rey's. Stifled sobs and sounds of sloppy kissing filled the air between them. Disgust hung around the air of the both of them as Kylo persisted with his advances.

It was at this moment that Rey realized there was no hope left for Kylo Ren.

The two apprentices stood before Master Snoke as a particular red head with multiple pamphlets cradled in his arms made his way down the single corridor that lead to the master's seat. Kylo and Rey eyed General Hux as he strode past them and threw his pamphlets towards their master. Master Snoke did not even turn his head to address the general.

"These are the reports from the front lines," General Hux muttered as he lowered his head in respect to his commander.

Master Snoke did not even take a look at the documents, he continued to gaze off into the distance and seemingly ignore the general. Hux appeared unsure what to do with the silence, he glanced to the apprentices then continued on talking,

"Skywalker has returned and he has immensely boosted-"

"I know." Snoke had interrupted the general and now he was facing towards the trio. "Take Kylo Ren with you. He should be enough to help you quell their offenses."

"Yes, sir." General Hux turned towards Kylo and motioned for him to follow after him. Kylo reluctantly glanced towards Rey and this was done with Hux noticing the action. His face scrunched up with displeasure as Kylo slowly followed after the commander.

Once out of range of hearing for Rey and the master, Hux swung himself around and gripped tightly to the front of Kylo's robe, "What have you done?" He snarled at the larger male. Usually Kylo would shrug off any man smaller than he, but Hux was a special case. His temper was quite literally flaring and his fiery hair heightened that feeling of unease between them.

Kylo attempted to play dumb, but Hux somehow always managed to guess when he had done something 'unfit.' "What do you mean?" He responded with a slight crack to his voice.

The ginger shoved Kylo against the wall, "You have been fucking around haven't you?!" Hux always got upset when Kylo had relations with someone other than him. Kylo was told multiple times by Hux that he was his and his alone. Fighting it could get difficult.

"I don't know what you mean," Kylo was trying to deflect as well as he could, but this was just making Hux even more aggravated with him.

"Don't play dumb with me you little slut. You've been sleeping with that Jakku girl haven't you? I smell her on you."

Kylo tried to swallow, but his throat was completely dry. Nothing could get down. Hux's face softened as he realized he hit the nail on the head. His grip on Kylo's clothes relinquished and he turned so that his back was facing the younger man, "I will see to it that you will pay for that. Get on the fucking ship." He barked as he began to march away.

Now alone, Kylo let out a breath of relief. He had escaped, though only momentarily, the wrath of General Hux. Kylo knew that he would be paying for it tonight and every other night on the ship as well. Until he got to the battle, he would be paying for what he did to Rey.

Why had he done this?

"Are you coming or not?!" It was General Hux yelling at him. If he stood around here anymore the man would be even more upset. Kylo didn't want to make his first night on the ship even more unpleasant.

Once he was onboard the ship, Kylo Ren began to think about the battle ahead.
