It had been several weeks with no word from Helix. Masro didn't dare contact him for fear he would be found out. The children were asleep and Masro and Kylo found it best to work during that time lately.
Kylo and Masro were in the strategy room, working on a way to bring the last of the inner core planets on board with kylo's new order treaty. Masro had the holo communicator on the table and kept glancing at it. She was about to give up on him when the alert came that he was contacting. She just stared at it.
"Answer it, Masro," Kylo ordered. She opened it; Helix's hologram shot out of it. He still had a heavy beard on his face, but his hair was neat, and he wore clothing with a rebel symbol.
"Mistress, I'm sorry for the long pause in between contact," Helix whispered, he saw kylo behind Masro and looked a bit frightened. "Master."
"Masro informed me of her mission for you. I thank you for your Allegiance. Upon your return to us we will talk."
"We only have a short time, tell me what you have learned," Masro ordered.
"I have learned that Rey, the new leader of the alliance, has Married a lead pilot named Poe Dameron. They just revealed they are expecting a child to the rebels. Their forces had multiplied tenfold since you last saw them. The rebels also have expanded most of their air crafts and x wings. They have built a base on Yavin IV, which is where I'm currently at. I heard news that they are starting construction of another base, but the location hasn't been revealed as of yet. I hope to see my leaders soon to finish these rebels," Helix quickly informed. He kept looking over his shoulder. "I have to go, or I will be caught."
The hologram went black.
"Very interesting information,"Masro said calculating a plan. "Jedi are not supposed to form attachments, yet you told me according to Skywalker she is the last Jedi."
"Yes, he practically beat the lesson into me…after that incident,"Kylo said angrily. He thought back to a time he didn't want to remember. The scariest moment from his childhood. The moment he believed was what changed his path forever.
He was with his uncle Luke, studying. Kylo was about eleven at the time. Luke left to go get more of the ancient text for him.
"Ben…" Young ben looked up from a book he was trying to study for the fifth time and looked around. There was nobody. He went back to his studies.
"Help me, Ben…" Realization came when he realized it was Masro.
"Masro, I'm coming," he jumped up and grabbed his student lightsaber. He ran straight outside to find a ship to go to Naboo. His fathers ship, the millennium falcon, was parked there because his parents were using another ship for a diplomatic mission. Young Ben ran on board and started hitting switches to get the ship ready for take off. Once in space he engaged the hyper drive and was to Naboo in a short time. He landed the ship near Masro's family home and rushed out. He went to the gate and used the force to undo the lock and rushed up to the door. Just as he was about to knock the door swung open and Masro's father and brother were heading out.
"Ben, what are you doing here?" Peo, Masro's father asked.
"I felt a disturbance in the force, and it led me here," Ben said not a full lie.
"Well it's a good thing you're so attuned, Masro is missing," Peo said frantically.
"Missing? For how long?" Ben asked.
"This is going on a week. We are going out to search. Maybe you can do some force trick and find her,"Peo ran off with his son. Ben ran out of the property into the open field beyond. He stood perfectly still and pushed out his force. Nothing bounced back, he fell to his knees.
"Masro, I don't know if you can hear me but give me a sign," Ben begged. He went in a meditation stance and kept pushing his force out in all directions. They were all bouncing back with nothing. He had been at it for hours, Ben saw Peo and skiro head home, but he wasn't about to give up. He started thinking of Masro, she was his best friend. She was kind, smart beyond her years and everything he wanted to be. She balanced him when they were together. He focused just on her in his minds eye and pushed everything else out. Then tried once again to push his force out.
A beacon lit up in his mind, telling him where to find her. He could feel her as he got closer. She was weak, cold and hurt but alive. He was getting angry, the closer he got the more the rage grew in him. He radiated so much anger trees started falling around him as he ran through the forest. He ran for what felt like hours until came to a rock structure. Ben couldn't tell if they had been put there deliberately or nature made them. He extended his arm and practically blew up the rocks. They covered a cave; he ran in still holding on to that beacon. A terrible scream broke the silence, it was Masro. As he got closer, he slowed down to take an assessment of the situation. Masro was chained hanging from the ceiling by her hands, her feet were also chained so she formed an X. She was bleeding all over very badly, he could tell she had been beaten. She had passed out from what he sensed was from pain.
A hooded figure stood in front of her with a metal rod, red with the color of intense heat, he was laughing. Ben froze him and walked out of the shadows. He was taller than Ben, but that wasn't going to stop him from saving Masro.
"Scum," the hooded figure spit out toward Ben.
"You are the scum. Why have you taken my friend?" Ben asked.
"Both you scum have the same disease. It needs to be eradicated,"the figure said.
"The force is not a disease. It is with in all things, sadly even you,"Ben said. He used the force to push him back still frozen, while he unchained Masro. She was out cold, so he laid her on the ground. He turned towards the figure again. This time his face was twisted with rage. Ben grabbed his lightsaber and lit it.
"You deserve so much worse than what I'm about to do to you," Ben growled. He had never felt such rage before, he slowly walked toward the figure. Ben pulled the cloak off of him, it was just a kid a bit older than him. Ben slid his lightsaber down his cheek lightly enough it was just a cut.
"What have you done to my friend?" Ben asked through gritted teeth. He was silent, Ben tightened his force grip and extended it to choking him.
"Everything I wanted to. Her cries really had me going,"He finally answered and laughed what he could through the force choke. Ben Lifted his hands and used the force to rip the kid in half blood splattered everywhere but didn't stop there. Ben took his lightsaber starting to slash and cut until he was no longer recognizable as a human. He dropped to his knees covered in blood and turned off his lightsaber. He was still shaking with rage.
"Ben…"Masro whispered. Ben ran over to her and pulled her into his arms. "Wha-"
"Shhhh. Everything is fine now, you're safe," Ben said but the shock was setting in. Masro weakly sat up and looked from Ben to what can only be described as meat cutlets on the ground. She hugged him to her as tightly as she could manage, they were both shaking.
"Ben, we need to clean you up and hide….and hide…."Masro pointed to the remains. "I don't want you to get in trouble because of me."
Masro was running on adrenaline, she found something that could be used as a shovel and began digging. Ben came over with another object and began helping Masro. When they felt it was deep enough, they climbed out. Masro was to weak to use her abilities so Ben used the force to lift the pieces and dropped them into the hole. He then used his abilities to push the dirt back in and forced it down, so it looked undisturbed.
Masro legs gave way and Ben caught her. He picked her up in his arms and headed out of the cave. They went to the lake so he could clean up unseen. Ben laid her down by the shore when they arrived, threw his lightsaber down and jumped in the lake.
"Ben be careful," Masro said. He pulled her in the water with him just to get some of the dried blood off of her. Ben held her to make sure she was safe. After a short time, he crawled out of the lake, helping Masro out and together they laid by the shore. They stayed quiet for a long while looking at the stars. Ben grabbed Masro's hand and held it.
"You don't have to tell me what happened, if you don't want to," Ben said breaking the silence. Masro rolled and hugged Ben, he wrapped his arm around her. She started crying as it all hit her, he let her but hugged her tighter. She sat up and looked at the lake while silent tears continued to fall from her eyes.
"He…they…beat me and tortured me with weapons…they kept me weak so I couldn't focus to use my abilities. It was a few different people. We know the family, they are prominent in the community my father works for.…but the son he was the worst and.….and….He….,"she started crying harder but couldn't finish. She couldn't get the darkest part of the story out. Ben sat up shaking with anger, Masro was two years younger than him but he knew what caused her to not finish her story.
"He got off to easy by me killing him. He deserved so much worse,"Ben said angrily banging his fist into the ground sending his force out shaking the ground around them.
"Please don't tell my parents what he did to me,"Masro begged and Ben nodded though he thought they all deserved to pay. "I have always had a vision of the future that we would someday get married, but Jedi can't marry, nor would you want me now anyway." Masro tried to get up, Ben stopped her.
"Look at me. Why would that stop me from wanting you? I know that I have been on the Jedi path since birth, but I've also known that something has always drawn us together. Our force becomes one when we are around each other and I feel like a whole person. We will see what the future holds,"Ben pulled Masro in for a hug. "Let's get you home."
He picked her up into his arms and carried her to her home where Ben saw a second ship was near his and knew his uncle would be there. There was a commotion coming from inside. Ben put Masro down on her feet and helped her inside. There was a mixture of happy screams and anger when they walked in.
Masro's mom ran screaming and hugged Masro but she almost fell, Ben reached out and caught Masro. He picked her up in his arms and carried her to her room so her mother could tend to her.
"Ben, you can't just up and leave when you want," Luke confronted him when he exited Masro's room. Ben locked his mind to his uncle.
"Uncle her life depended on me. If you want to punish me then go ahead but I would do it again," Ben explained.
"You have grown to attached to her and You know that you can't have any attachments. It leads to fear and anger…"Luke started lecturing.
"Uncle stop your lecture," Ben said pushing past him. He went in the living room where Masro's father was arguing with some unknown people.
"What has your wizard daughter done with my son?! She is pure evil,"the unknown man said. Ben scanned his brain, he knew about Masro's capture and even participated. He used the force to drag the man out and threw him off the porch.
"Ben, what are you doing?!" Peo shouted running out followed by Luke.
"He was involved in Masro's capture!" Ben shouted. Luke reached out with the force and froze Ben. "Uncle release me. He deserves to be brought to justice!"
"Where is my son?!" The man yelled at Ben. He just smiled.
"Uncle let us return home and get back to my studies,"Ben said. His uncle released him.
"You are never to return here, boy!" Peo shouted at Ben.
"I just saved your daughter!" Ben shouted back; Luke pulled his arm towards their ships.
"I agree. It's best you don't return here. You have to much attachment and that could lead to the dark side. I will block your contact with her, and you will be properly punished," Luke harshly spoke to him. Kylo didn't want to remember his punishments, he still had scars both mentally and physically.
A few days later Ben snuck away from his uncle again and flew back to Naboo, this time in a more covert ship. His communication through the force with Masro had been disrupted but knew if she was out of bed she would be by the lake. Ben walked over the hill that would lead him to lay his eyes on Masro. She was there but so was her brother, who did not like him. They were just sitting by the lake, Masro was not allowed to use her abilities. There was a rock next to her hand, Ben gently lifted it and let it hover until she noticed it. Masro looked around and saw him.
"Skiro, if you are board of sitting with me you can go home,"Masro said trying to get her brother to leave. He just grunted. "Aren't you supposed to help father today?"
Skiro jumped up, "You're right! Father is going to kill me. Make sure you get home right away."
Skiro ran in the direction of their home and Ben ran towards Masro. The two hugged, he flinched from the touch.
"Ben, What's wrong?"
"I was punished for coming here and not opening my mind to my uncle. I don't want to talk about him anymore."
"I thought I would never see you again, Ben,"Masro said crying into his chest.
"After what I'm here to do today, we most likely won't get to see each other again,"Ben said seriously causing Masro to look up at him.
"What are we going to do?"
"Not we, I don't want to involve you,"Ben said evasively.
"No. Ben, we are a team. I would follow you to the ends of the galaxy," Masro said beyond her years.
"I'm…we're going to kill the rest of the people that took you," Ben said seriously. Then tossing a lightsaber at Masro, who he had been teaching in secret how to use one for years, "here in case."
Masro took Ben's hand and led him to the woods, she knew exactly where the family lived but it was best to be covert. When they reached the outskirts of the property Masro stopped. Ben held his hand out and scanned.
"I sense five people,"he said Masro nodded indicating they all had participated in her torture. "Stay outside, don't let anybody out. Use your force to push them back in. Don't try to argue, I'm not going to let you get blood on your hands."
Masro nodded. She reached out with the force and locked all the doors and windows. Ben unlocked the front door, but force slammed it behind him. Screaming came from inside. The front door opened, and two boys Tried to escape, Masro pushed them back in with the force. A few moments later it was silent. Ben walked out covered in more blood than she expected. The lightsaber should have caused no blood loss, so she knew he used the force and tore them apart. Masro reached with the force and knocked wood out the lit fireplace into the room, she had been in this house many times and knew it by heart. The house would burn down leaving nothing. They went back to the lake where Ben cleaned up.
"They got what they deserved. Nobody hurts my family and lives,"Ben looked at Masro. She hugged him tightly and cried.
"Please don't leave me, take me with you. I hate it here,"Masro begged.
"It's not safe out there. Hopefully I made it safer here for you. I have to go," Ben said.
"Wait, one last time," she released her force to embrace him and he followed. They felt whole.
"Kylo, you there?"Masro asked worried placing her hand on his. He snapped out of his thoughts.
"Yes, I'm sorry. I was thinking about a time when my uncle punished me for my attachment of you after I had saved your life," he answered.
"You were thinking about….that horrible….experience," Masro said almost frightened she paled just thinking about it. She was still very haunted by the memory of it. Kylo pulled her in for a tight hug.
"I knew even then we would end up together hearing you have a vision of it confirmed my feelings. You knew me for my true self and my darkest secret and you never rejected me,"kylo said.
"There was never anything to reject. My love, we are as one and have always been, I share your secrets as you share mine. Nothing will ever separate us,"Masro comforted.
"I love you,"kylo said and Masro smiled.
"Let's go back to our suite, you can show me how much you love me," Masro stood and held her hand out. Kylo took Masro's hand pulling her into his arms. He kissed her deeply and passionately. Then Masro led them to their suite. They kissed, holding each other as if finally getting the comfort they sought after what they called the experience. Kylo had let his uncle punish him for years after, but now he realized he also punished himself.
"Kylo, I read minds too. You never deserved anything that happened to you after that. It took me a long time to realize there is no light and dark side, we were both lied to our entire childhoods. You made sure those people never hurt me again and I am eternally thankful. I love you,"Masro comforted. Kylo had tears come to his eyes.
"I really spent so many years, thinking I was evil, but you never saw me that way,"kylo said, Masro angrily force threw a chair in the room.
"How could anyone make you feel like that? You are not and have never been evil. You are a strong person that has evolved eons beyond those around you, even me."
"No, not you. I strive to be like you," kylo said and Masro laughed.
"I guess great minds think alike, I strive to be like you. Strong and passionately care about the cause,"Masro brought kylo in for another kiss. She slowly slid his hand up her body to stop at her neck, causing kylo to pull away from her lips.
"Are you sure?" He asked full of need and desire.
"Oh yes, kylo, I want everything you need," Masro began to undress, followed by Kylo. They intertwined and kylo looked into Masro's eyes, he brought one hand up to her face and rubbed his thumb across his lips. He stuck his thumb in and she sucked on it, bringing a growl from Kylo's throat. Kylo pulled his hand away and back handed her, pulling a moan from Masro. He pushed her onto all fours on their bed and grabbed a small bottle to help smooth the process. He slid into her behind making Masro cry out. Kylo grabbed Masro's hair and roughly pulled her up towards him while he forcibly pulled in and out of her. They both moaned orgasmic sounds of pleasure. Kylo stopped for a moment and moved his hand from her hair to her neck and lowered his other hand to pleasure her.
"Ready?" Kylo whispered his breath quickened at the thought.
"Yes, my love," Masro turned to kiss kylo. When their lips parted, he began to squeeze her throat tightly and kissed her shoulder. Kylo began his forceful thrusting in and out of Masro while he pleasured her. He began to slowly squeeze her throat tighter, she silently screamed from everything kylo was doing to her. He was holding her against him, and a powerful climax hit her. She cried out unable to catch her breath and passed out in kylo's arms still breathing. He laid her down on the bed and continued to thrust in and out of her until he finished in her. Kylo pulled out and turned her over, he hadn't realized how hard he squeezed this time because her neck was starting to bruise.
"Masro?" Kylo said gently rubbing her cheek. She awoke gasping for air, he wrapped his arms around her putting his hand on her face. She smiled up at him. "It scares me when you pass out, but oh does it turn me on to have that kind of control." Kylo leaned down and kissed Masro.
"Kylo, my love, can you help me to the shower?"Masro said weakly. After she began to walk for a bit, her body took back over. She looked at her neck in the mirror, it was such a show of power and restraint. Masro found herself very aroused by Kylo's restraint but realized she would have to cover it up because of the children. Kylo came up behind her.
"I'm sorry," he turned her towards him. Masro pulled him to her lips.
"Don't be. I'm sad I have to cover it up. I love that it shows such power and restraint. I honestly could go again with how turned on I am right now,"Masro pulled him in for another kiss. Kylo pulled Masro into the shower, this time he was much gentler with her. He kissed her softly, sliding his hand down her body finding its way between her legs. Her breathing quickened, and he lifted her to straddle him sliding her slowly down his hardened manhood. Kylo leaned down and kissed her neck where it was bruised in the shape of his hand. Kylo using the strength in his arms brought them both to a quick climax. They finished their shower and finally got to sleep. The next day would bring rebel hunting.
