Chapter Ten: Old Enemies Appear
Last Time:
"Why can't you ever listen to me?" Anakin pleaded with her. He was no longer in the now; she was having a vision with Anakin. Why is it that both the men in her life connect to her when she doesn't want to? Anakin really takes after her Husband in that regard. "You should have someone with you. Damnit why can't you just listen? I am trying to protect the both of us. Forget about Dad, he can handle himself. He will get over it why I haven't force bonded with him yet." The boy pleaded with his Mother. As he grabbed her shoulders, His ocean blue eyes starring deep into hers. Anakin's solemn face was now twisted with worry and he now had tears in his eyes.
"I have to go to your Father now." She got out of her Son's surprisingly strong grip.
Anakin scoffed at his Mother. "Don't bother, we got kidnapped. We are on Hux's shuttle with the Knights, Phasma and Hux. He broke out of prison, he was going to go after Dad but he saw you. Knowing you wouldn't do anything to drastic or it could hurt me."
"Wait what? Anakin this can't be true." She looked down and her saber wasn't on her belt. Her son had been right about everything. "Why didn't you let me get to your Father?" she fought her son.
"My Father isn't worthy of being my Father yet." Anakin spat back.
"Your Father loves you, he loves both of us." She was in tears now.
"Not fully, there is still part of him that wants to have Snoke corrupt me and have you killed. He isn't one hundred percent devoted to us yet. He still wants power. You still blindly believe he will change because he knocked you up."
"You are wrong, he loves us." Rey started to become doubtful.
"Ha." Was all Anakin could mutter. "I spoke the truth; you can feel it's true. You are so hopeful, it's your downfall. You are so foolish. " The last part sounded like Snoke.
Ben had come outside. He scanned then perimeter, he had his saber ready. He then almost tripped on a stick, but this stick felt too heavy. He looked down and it was Rey's saber. Then the torment overwhelmed Ben. This same torment he had felt before. Ben was certain of a few things. Hux and the other First Order goons had kidnapped Rey and Anakin. Also that Snoke would try to turn Rey against him; Along with their unborn Son with lies. Ben needed to assemble a team to go get Rey. Before Ben went to assemble his team, he momentarily hugged the saber, as his connection to her was already growing weaker. The raven haired man no longer felt conflict all he wanted was resolve and to get Rey back to him safely.
Now:
Hux had left his prison after the Knights let him out. Hux was coming for a vengeance he would start with Ben Solo and then go after the pregnant scavenger he called his Wife. Hux made sure his blaster was loaded and ready to fire. Hux was so eager to take down the man who killed Snoke. He moved quietly through the halls with Phasma and the Knights, they were undetected. They had come across a somewhat dazed Rey. She didn't pay any mind to them. One of the Knights tried to stop her from moving.
"No. I have to talk to Ben." Is all she cried. As an instinct she raised her saber trying to fight back. But the saber feel at her feet after a force push. She was then knocked out. One of the Knights scooped up Rey and carried her in their arms. The Knight named Felix was surprised on how light the pregnant woman was. The group then walked onto the shuttle and left without a trace. Felix placed Rey on the ship medical unit and restrained her, Felix and Leroy where the Knights on watch for when the Master would wake up. They men both knew that Snoke was twisting her mind they could feel it. Anyone with the slightest amount of training could sense his ghost trying to corrupt the child within the womb.
"You are wrong, he loves us." Rey yelled while still in the void.
Felix sensed that the child was super strong, for a minute he thought that maybe Snoke wouldn't sink his hooks into this Solo. But the woman might be dealt with more of Snoke's rage. Hux couldn't make up his mind on where to set up camp bouncing around from about ten or so different planets. He finally chose the planet and set up base. The once heavily populated planet was mostly covered in ruble now. They then found the largest still standing structure; this would be home base for them until Ben Solo and the others will come for the girl. They don't have much time until the young force user is due to give birth. Hux gave explicit instructions torture the girl but don't harm her or the child they would be a prize to the Ghost of the Supreme Leader Snoke.
It has been a few days and Rey hasn't woken back up yet. The group then connected her to monitors; she and the baby are fine. Hux wanted to see her wake up. So he could feel on top like she got one over on his arch enemies Wife who was carrying his seed. This was what revenge on a silver platter felt like and Hux wasn't going to give it up so easily. Phasma went over to Rey's comatose body and started to do tests.
"What are you doing?" Hux hissed. Phasma no longer wore her helmet.
"Checking her vitals, you fucking idiot. No matter how much she deserves torture, I cannot let a child be harmed." She looked at the tests. "That's good a baby boy, healthy heartbeat. Extremely high midi-chlorian count just an inch shy of Darth Vader's." the commander was surprised.
The company had become bored of Rey's state. She was now in comatose for weeks. Rey was now connected on fluids and food to nourish her growing child. Snoke didn't care what happened to newborns Mother, but he wanted the child to be incubated for as long as possible.
"How far would you say that she is in this pregnancy?" Hux asked.
"In about a week she will enter her seventh month of pregnancy." Phasma replied back.
"How many months does a woman stay pregnant for?" Hux questioned growing impatient.
"The gustation period of a woman is nine months, moron. But depending on the child it can be longer or shorter." Phasma said as she fixed her blonde hair.
"You aren't very nice to me Phasma." Hux replied back to her.
"You are such a baby." She smiled. She hated she was attracted to Hux. But she couldn't help it. Just like how the scavenger won over the affections of Kylo Ren and then it resulted in a love child.
Hux just turned away from the giant woman and walked away. The seventh month of the Scavenger's pregnancy came and went. Until about a week into the scavengers eight month of pregnancy the rescue party has come for her. Hux noticed on her monitors that she was up, but completely terrified and broken. Snoke had mentioned that Rey had closed off the womb from his grasp making it near impossible to corrupt the child within. But while the scavenger was comatose for a solid two and a half months Snoke twisted her mind. Every happy thought she ever had was now terror inducing. Snoke could reach most of her mind expect for a block that was so tight he couldn't even force his way through.
