Rey
I wandered about the ship in a daze. My face felt numb. My hands felt numb. Everything felt numb.
I hated the kiss, but I loved the feeling. It was a new sensation I had never felt before. And it was with the first night of Ren. The almighty Kylo Ren. Or rather… Ben.
That's what I didn't get. He told me to call him Ben. I didn't know why. I didn't know the name. Maybe Kylo Ren wasn't always Kylo Ren. Maybe he did have a weakness.
The steady heartbeat that wasn't mine was still there. Would it be there forever? It thumped in my chest like my second heart.
Thump. Thump.
I took a deep breath and sped up, wandering the endless halls. I couldn't find my room. Trying not to seem lost, I stood up straighter and walked with my fists clenched.
Searching the halls for minutes, I started to get mad. Back on Jakku you could find places. No halls that all looked the same, no two homes were the same.
The troopers glanced at me but looked away. I guess they knew that I was Kylo's apprentice. All but one.
As I passed, one of them nodded and stopped. I stopped.
"Lady Rey, do you need assistance?" A familiar voice asked.
I replied while keeping as much dignity as possible. "Yes. Could you help find my room? I'm kind of… Lost."
"Of course. You're probably down this way…" She turned around while she spoke. I followed her silently as she started to mumble directions.
"What's you name?" I inquired.
She didn't look back at me as she replied. "KR-502." She told me. "Everyone gets mixed up. We all look the same," she concluded.
I furrowed my eyebrows. "Weren't you the one who was outside the med bay?" I pointed a finger at her.
"Yes." KR-502 nodded. "I believe this is yours…" She pointed to a door that opened as I walked near. I nodded and thanked her.
"I better get back to my troop. Rex is gonna be pissed if he realizes I'm gone. Good talking to you, lady Rey!" She said, walking off.
"I'm just Rey!" I shouted. She must have ignored it. No answer came.
I walked reluctantly back in my cage, still a bit shaken from Kylo's… Actions.
My black belt came easily off and I tossed it to the ground. I was so forgotten but by two people. I missed Finn, and Chewie, and Han. He was like the father I never had. I missed them all.
I turned to my little table with the communicator. Maybe…
I remembered Han telling me the identification code for the resistance. I picked up the communicator and punched in what I could remember. It rang.
Listening to the buzzing sound, I waited for someone to pick up.
"Who is this?" I heard. I gasped. It worked. It was to easy. I was speechless.
"This is… Rey. Um, I helped bring the droid… BB8 to Takkodana. Han and Chewie and Finn know about me. If they made it back."
The voice on the com quieted. Talking to someone else, they must have been trying to figure out who I was.
"Rey. This is Finn. You're alive? How? Are you hurt? Are you ok?" Finn's voice echoed with joy.
"I'm fine Finn," I said. "I'm on the first orders ship. Please, come help. I want to get off," I pleaded.
Finn paused. "We got your coordinates. We're coming. We'll be there as soon a-" the transmitting stopped short. It turned to static. I looked around my room to see if I could figure out why.
Standing in the doorway was a masked Kylo Ren. Fists clenched.
"Rey. What. did. I. tell. you?" He said each word slow. "What have you done?" He closed the door.
Author's note: I'm so sorry. I got really busy, and right as I was planning to write, I got sick. Like… really sick. I'm ok now! I hoped you enjoyed though! What do you think kylo will do with the "traitor" Rey?
