Rey still kneeled on the floor with Kylo, as were Poe and the others around Leia, when the big door to the hall opened and the other rebels, including Chewbacca busted in and instantly closed the door again, while someone yelled: "There are lots and lots of stormtroopers attacking, they won't listen to Captain Phasma's orders anymore!"
Then they saw Leia's dead body on the floor and Kylo's yellow-rimmed eyes, so Chewbacca growled out in anger and readied his bowcaster into Kylo's direction, obviously thinking he was the reason of Leia's death.
Finn who stood next to Chewie suddenly jumped in front of him and screamed: "NO!" whilst pushing the weapon up as it shot into the ceiling.
Chewie just shoved Finn rudely away onto the floor and then stomped into the direction of Kylo, whilst roaring aggressively and aiming at Kylo again.
Now several others started to scream at Chewie to take the weapon down. The force user's gaze wandered absently from Leia's body to Chewie as the Wookie fired again.
This time Kylo stood up and reached out his hand to stop the blast in midair, his eyes burning in a bright yellow colour again, then he froze Chewbacca as he just walked past him, ignoring him completely while he picked up his lightsaber through levitation on his way, igniting it while it still was in the air and force pushed the door open.
Rey's mouth was agape, as she knew he wouldn't normally be able to hold off Chewies blaster shots but he obviously dwelled in the dark side of the force so deep right now he just did it anyway.
When he stomped through the door, dark energy radiating from him, he growled an: "Go back to the base! Now!" to the others and there instantly were shots from stormtroopers coming into his direction, which he also halted in midair, while the door closed again behind him.
There was lots of shooting and screaming to be heard, but after some seconds it completely died down and everything went quiet.
This all happened in a matter of just several seconds and everyone was baffled, as they didn't know what he was doing. Chewbacca was unfrozen again and just growled while holding his head with one paw, but then decided to scoop over to Leia in defeat.
Rey knew the moment she saw Kylo leave the room, that he is going to do something insanely awful so she stood up with great effort and stumbled over to the door,
while Poe yelled desperately:
"Oi Rey! Where are you going? Stay here...Please! What is he doing?"
Rey turned around and faced the pilot with a trembling voice: "Poe. I don't know. I really don't know. His force signature felt horrifying and he blocks our bond.
I think he'll do something disastrous. I need to follow him. Go back to the base with the others!"
Just when she wanted to turn around and go, Phasma's metallic voice rang through the hall. "The generator room." She just stated.
Everybody's eyes wandered to the silverly dressed stormtrooper, then Rey asked suspiciously: "What about it?"
"He probably is going to destroy it." Phasma answered boldly.
Rey didn't have enough time for cryptical answers, as she had to follow Kylo.
So she went some steps forward and reached her arm out, prying into Phasma's mind to find out why she said this and if she might be lying.
There were several different pictures. They were mixed up in a nonchronological order, but she got a glimpse of several events from the past and from today.
At first, there was a picture of Kylo stumbling out from Snoke's hall, helmet on but barely holding up. Phasma has been waiting outside and now ran to his aid to hold him up and dragged him to the medical bay of the ship. There he collapsed on the floor, as she removed his helmet, to see blood running out of his nose. She ordered some droids to take care of him, while she watched over them.
Then another scene came up. Phasma was waiting with several stormtroopers outside of a ship, looking over to a solitary house in the distance while screams and shootings emerged from it. Then everything went quiet. They waited for several minutes for someone, until Phasma told the others troopers to stay put, while she walked over to the house.
When she entered, she saw four people lying on the floor, dead. In the middle of it, Kylo Ren was kneeling on the floor, cradling a young girl in his arms, who was also dead.
He had taken off his helmet and was sobbing while looking at the child in his arms in shock. He looked younger than he is now. Maybe in his early twenties. His lightsaber lay somewhere in the room as if he had tossed it away.
Phasma came over and kneeled down in front of him, while she took her helmet off. This was also the first time Rey saw her without a mask. She was older than Rey and had short blonde hair and a serious face. When she was in front of Kylo and he looked up at her with glistening eyes, she asked what happened.
He answered: "She was too strong with the force. I wasn't able to block her energy. I had to kill her. She is so young. She is just a damn child!"
Phasma looked from the child up to him and had some kind of sadness or pity in her eyes. "It's not your fault. It was obvious, the day would come when there is someone too strong, where you wouldn't be able to block their force energy anymore. I am sorry, it had to be this child." With that, she stood up and waited for Kylo to do so too until they both walked out of the house.
The next scene that plopped up was Phasma walking up to a room, where sparks flew out through the door and yelling was heard. When she entered, it was Kylo in the middle of a rage fit, destroying the room with his saber. When she saw him, she took off her helmet and placed it on a not yet broken table, while he stopped and panted heavily, anger written all over his face. She walked over to him and asked with a somehow soft voice if he succeeded in his mission. He just yelled an angry: "NO!" at her, while both his hands grabbed his head in frustration, clawing in his hair.
"What happened?" she asked. "I was too weak. I couldn't kill my father. I could have easily shot his ship down, but I couldn't bring myself to do it! This is insane!" he growled while closing his eyes in concentration to calm somewhat down.
Phasma took one more step forward and just grabbed his face, kissing him hastily as in if she wants to reassure him. He immediately opened his eyes in shock,
took both her arms and shoved her away slightly, yelling a confused: "What?" at her.
Rey stopped the mind prying at that for a second, as she was taken aback by what happened between these two, now also understanding why he gave Phasma a chance to survive. Her chest started to hurt and she felt something she could only decipher as jealousy washing over her. But she still had to find out what Phasma meant with the generator room. So she swallowed down her feelings and used the force again with more pressure this time.
There was a picture of a furiously screaming Snoke now, ordering her and several other generals to attack the new resistance base with all their might and the five thousand stormtroopers on board, killing every rebel off until the last man, woman and child.
The next picture was the most recent one of her being restrained by Chewbacca and the other rebels in front of the throne room, while she heard the voice of Snoke through her comlink, telling the troopers to not listen to any of the leftover generals anymore and execute everyone relentlessly on the Supremacy who does not belong to the First Order.
Rey now understood why Phasma thought he'd be going to the generator room. "He's going to blow up the Supremacy..." she mumbled and looked up with a shocked face.
Phasma nodded and said: "Yes. There is no way, the stormtroopers will stop their attack anymore after Snoke's order. He knows that."
"It's gonna kill everyone on this ship, successfully stopping the attack...We have to leave. Now!" Rey ordered the others.
One more time, Rey reached out her arm to Phasma and used the force to pry into her mind, getting the detailed information where the generator room was.
Then she eyed her for a second and whispered, so only she could hear it: "Do you love him?" Phasma nodded so slightly, just Rey was able to see it.
She turned around with a fast beating heart after this answer and faced the door, as Poe ordered the others to go back to the hangar to board their ships while watching out for attacking stormtroopers.
Chewbacca took Leia's body and Rey informed the others that she is going to go for Kylo, while she promised everyone to come back.
They nodded and finally opened the door, just now seeing what had happened when the dark side user walked out before them.
It was a cruel scene, everywhere dead troopers with missing limbs lay on the ground, there was blood on the walls, the floor, even streams of the red liquid gathered together dripping down from a nearby bridge and several metal walls were slashed at obviously with a lightsaber, while sparks flew away from open the holes in it.
It looked like a massacre and everyone had to gulp at this picture. Finn tried to convinceRey to go with her one last time, but she declined and explained that she has
to bring back Kylo on her own.
When they parted ways, the rebels going back to the hangar, while Rey made her way to the generator she ignited her lightsaber, in case stormtroopers will attack.
While she ran she always tried to press through their bond into his mind, but it was still blocked so she had no chance at all.
She pretty much just followed the way of destruction and was sometimes surprised by attacking troopers, who she managed to fight off.
After some time the lights on the ship started to flicker and a siren was to be heard. A computer voice warning of the unstable condition of the ship, telling everyone to evacuate. So he already destroyed the generators. I have to reach him fast now before everything will be blown to pieces. She put more power into her legs to run faster. Then she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her shoulder but didn't stop running as she already heard explosions. Just now she understood what this pain was, as she felt her tunic wetting. She got hit by a blaster shot.
She grunted in pain and held her shoulder, while still running.
Then she heard him in her mind: "Rey? You are hurt!" He had opened the bond again. "Kylo? Flee from the ship! Please! Save yourself!" She sent him, as she felt herself getting slower from the loss of blood.
"Where are you Rey? Show me!" he now yelled at her slightly panicked. She opened the bond completely and looked around, while one hand was pressed on her wound.
She tried to stumble into the direction of the generator room, but it still was so far away she would never be there in time.
She put a hand on the wall to pause for a second as she felt herself getting dizzy. She panted heavily, as the lights went off every few seconds and the siren seemed to be getting louder.
Suddenly she heard a humming sound coming from the end of the dark corridor and she saw a red flickering light. It was Kylo Ren, making his way into her direction, yellow eyes seemingly shining through the darkness while he held his lightsaber as a light source in front of him.
Without uttering a word he picked her up bridal style and took a turn left, kicking open a door with his feet and then standing in front of a small escape pod, attached to the wall, also kicking this door open and pushing Rey hastily in the seat, while she was yelling at him.
He was about to close the door in front of him, while he still stood outside. The explosions of the detonating ship coming nearer every second.
Rey screamed: "NOO!" and forced the door open again while feeling an intense pain from the blaster wound in her shoulder.
His eyes widened when she jumped forward to grab his collar, ripping him downwards with all her leftover strength for him to fall into the pod too. She kicked the control board with her feet, for the door to close and the escape pod immediately launched itself from the base, shooting them into space.
He laid sprawled on top of her in the most uncomforting position but wasn't able to move much as there was no space left in the small cabin, his yellow shining eyes were on hers in shock as he yelled:" Rey! Are you crazy? This pod is for one person only! It will definitely crash down!"
"We lived through worse things than this by now!" she boldly stated while she couldn't leave her gaze from his haunting eyes, which started to flicker again a little as they searched her face.
She put the hand from her uninjured arm up to his face and pulled him into her, so his head rested on her chest. He didn't have much of a choice anyway as the space was so small, he couldn't stand up, or move beside her. So he just let himself fall down a bit while trying to not get in touch with her wound.
While he laid there on top of her, she mumbled, while running her fingers slowly through his hair: "Please come back to me. Leave the dark side behind you for now.
It scares me. Your eyes, they are yellow and red. Are you aware of that?"
He just breathed out a: "Yes." on her shoulder, while closing his eyes, so she didn't have to see them anymore.
Their escape pod was flying unsteadily through space, as it was shot away from the Supremacy. They were pretty far away right now and Rey watched the ship through a small window on the door of the pod. Then there was this really bright blueish light coming from within the First Order ship, which started to spread into a white ring super fast and then an enormous explosion took place while the Supremacy was completely destroyed as it broke in two halves.
Rey watched in complete silence, but also horror and awe at this gigantic explosion taking place in front of her eyes, while she laid her hand on Kylo's eyes to shield them from the white burning light coming their way. She turned her head into his hair and closed her eyes too, whispering: "The Supremacy is gone. The shockwave will hit us any second now."
"I know." he just answered sounding kind of tired and defeated.
Just then the shockwave hit them and the escape pod was shaken intensely while being thrown into some kind of spiral, which made Rey moan in pain from the gravity pressing her into the seat.
Kylo tried to press himself away, to not lay with his full weight on her and her wound, but to no avail as the G-forces against their bodies were just too strong right now.
After several seconds Rey just passed out, as her body couldn't take it anymore.
