Spies throughout the galaxy would send information to General Hux and it would trickle down to Kylo. It angered Kylo that Hux knew the droid was on Takodana with Han Solo. Solo was his mission, a mission he needed to complete to finally belong to the darkside. Only a moment after the First Order landed, the Rebellion showed up inciting a battle. Kylo growled, he didn't have time for this. He commanded the handful of troopers he had taken on his own ship to avoid the battle and find the droid.

Kylo followed his target into the forest. How far can it get? Kylo thought when he didn't find the droid immediately. It rolls! He grew angrier with each passing second until he spotted a girl several yards away. Foolishly she wasn't running away and Kylo now had something to focus his anger on. As he approached he saw that she was young, about his age, and carried a blaster with her that was much too large for her to handle well. It took until he was nearly on top of her for the panic to begin. She fired at him, attacks that were easily deflected by his lightsaber. He raised his hand to deliver the final blow, but something stopped him. He hesitated because of something he saw in her mind. When he looked again, he saw the droid.

"You've seen the map," he grinned. Instead of killing her he knocked her unconscious to bring her back to the ship. He would find the map inside of her mind; the droid would be obsolete.

He brought the girl back to the base of the First Order and waited for her to wake up before fishing in her mind. He would only get subconscious thoughts and memories if she wasn't awake to respond to his questions; it would be a waste of his energy. He paced around the room. The longer it took for her to wake up, the more time the Rebellion had to find Skywalker using the actual map from the droid. It might be more prudent to annihilate them; Starkiller Base is now fully operational, so why not? These thoughts raced through his mind just as the girl's eyes opened.
