Chapter 13

Kylo Ren is comforting a drained Rey, attempting to come up with a rescue plan. He has no doubt that his leadership is being questioned with his attention being focused on saving Rey. He brushes his hand on her face, feeling how cold she has become.

The chamber doors open to reveal Ralak, who becomes instantly aware of Kylo Ren's presence. Kylo reaches for his lightsaber in defense mode. Not the reaction Kylo was expecting, Ralak grins mischievously. "I did see that in the girl's mind. How you two have a force-bond as well as how protective you get over her. It's quite comical, isn't it? I do wonder if her feelings are truly reciprocated."

"Let. Her. Go." Kylo Ren spits out.

"Hmm, no." Ralak chuckles. "I am surprised you are strong enough to be carrying a force-teleportation this long. Since I know the force-bond was severed due to her lack of force power at the moment."

"H-How do you know how to do to all of this?" Kylo Ren is shocked. Surely, he could have tapped into her brain, but it is still surprising this mysterious figure would use something so personal immediately. Although, it is the same thing he did to convince Rey to turn to the Dark side. Plus, he never imagined it would be possible to steal another force-users power.

"Wouldn't the more appropriate question be 'What am I going to do with her,' Supreme Leader?" Ralak chuckles. He begins circling around Kylo Ren and an unconscious Rey.

Kylo eyes his every move carefully. He is trying to determine this figure's identity, who seems to know too much about the First Order's leadership and his personal relationship. He finds himself getting exhausted, probably from the overuse of the force. Ben struggles to continue the connection so he can ensure that Rey is safe.

"Sorry, pretty boy. Visiting hours are over." Ralak raises his hand, pushing Kylo Ren out of the surrounding space.

What seems like hours later, Rey finally comes back to consciousness. Still feeling drained, she glances around at her surroundings looking for any possible escape tactic.

"You get three questions. Any questions at all and I will promise my honesty. And then I will ask my questions." Ralak breaks the silence, no trace of his usual humor. He slowly walks out of the darkness, revealing his resting garments, instead of his leadership cloak. "But choose wisely."

"Who are you?" Rey begins, deciding to participate in his game.

"I am Ralak Karlg, the true leader of the X-Order." He begins formally. "I am immune to the light and dark side of the force. I discovered my powers young and have been growing them ever since. I too was a slave from Jakku."

"J-Jakku? How have I never met you?" Rey is shocked. He looks familiar, but she can't distinguish between where.

"Is that your second question?" Ralak narrows his eyes. He wants to give her the chance to discover the truth but refuses to point it out to her.

After a long pause of consideration, she revises her question. "Do I have any connection to you, besides from being from Jakku?"

"Yes."

"Okay, what do you want from me? It can't be power because clearly, you have enough power on your own." Rey determines from her experience with him.

"Search your feelings. You know me." Ralak stares deeply into Rey's eyes. She attempts to break contact but isn't strong enough to do so.

"That's not an answer." Rey counters. She takes a moment to study Ralak's features. His eyes are the same as her brown eyes. His face features mimic her own. His hair is different but that doesn't mean much. She gasps in realization.

"Hello, sister."
