"Excuse me?!" Poe shouted angrily at General Leia."What did you agree to again?"
The entire resistance had just been informed on the incoming ships, no one knew how to react, some were questioning their orders. It was a heated time, especially after they had just bee bombed by the Firdt Order, now the Supreme Leader was coming to talk. Wow.
"You are telling me the both of you agreed to have that murderous snake land here peacefully so you can talk?!" He asked as if he was hearing it for the first time, it was actually more of his fifth.
"We have our sentry men on standby and others ready by their x-wings." Leia said as she kept up with Rey, Poe straggled behind, trying to assure others everything was to be fine and go as planned.
"He is still the murderer of hundreds of people, innocent lives were taken by him and his army." Poe objected.
Rey stopped im her tracks and spun to face the cocky pilot." When are you going to learn to shut that trap of yours Poe? You have no clue what is going on between the resistance and the First Order, you only get orders not inside information." She snapped, her eyes were staring daggers at Poe's head. Rey's face was reddening from her anger." You aren't too innocent yourself now are you? Who was the that our entire bombing fleet to their deaths?"
He stopped taken back by the sudden retaliation."I-"
"Poe," Leia began as she urged Rey to keep moving," Just get to your post with Finn and Chewie, you don't have to trust her but you can trust me."
The resistance base was on the verge of an outbreak but knowing how much they honored their leader and her instincts they had no choice but to have faith in her. Some resistance fighters sat back over looking all the damage that still had not been cleaned up since the last attack, some mourning the loss of their friends and some ready with their blasters for whatever comes their way.
Rey came to a hault, standing near their landing pads, she waited for any sign of the so called incoming company. Leia took her side which Poe did not agree to, of course. The young man stayed with Finn and Chewie, they were not far from where the two were waiting.
"This is madness." Poe said under his breath, getting both of his companions attention."Who knows what he will do."
Finn kept his mouth shut, unlike his friend he knew when to not intervene with Rey, especially since he is force sensitive. He could feel a few emotions, Rey was anxious and nervous too."We have to trust her." He pulled his blaster out of its holster to get it warmed up. Chewie rawred in agreement.
"Out of everyone you should be the one not okay with this, Finn." His voice was cold."You ran from the First Order because you knew their wrong doings."
"When did this become about me?" Finn cocked his head sideways, his gaze going from Rey to Poe." I left because I didn't want to be apart of what choas they had caused. If Rey's instincts tell her this will be fine then so be it, I trust her." Although he had to admit it was a shady move for Kylo Ren to offer this in order to speak with them.
"Trust Rey's instincts with the force." Finn directed his attention back to Rey." If she knows it will be okay then we have no reason to not trust her."
Poe groaned,"Finn what would you know about the force?!" Finn looked at him, he hesitated and was going to tell him until someone interrupted his thoughts.
"We have incoming!" A resistance soldier shouted loud enough for everyone else to pass word around. He was in a turret tower keeping an eye out when he spotted the incoming ships in the distance.
"Do not open fire unless we have a reason!" Finn shouted, his pulled his blaster close to his body, waiting for the ships to land.
It was several more mintes before they actually made it to the landing pad and it was just as Kylo had told Rey. He brought his own ship with two troop carriers.
All of the resistance soldiers were on edge and became nervous after the two troop carriers landed first, stormtroopers filed out aiming their weapons at any visible threat to them, they clearly didn't have trust in this bizarre plan. It was particularly hard for both sides not to open fire, considering their encounter a few days prior.
Kylo's ship came in and hovered over the ground till its ramp lowered and it finally landed. The trio behind Leia and Rey aimed their weapons at the ramp, waiting for the masked figure to emerge from the ship.
Rey's heart skipped a beat when she saw him, she felt his presence in the force and it warmed her. She felt his emotions, she could tell that he longed for this moment. She started to move forward, leaving Leia behind. They met halfway, he towered over her. It was funny to look down at her since she was so short.
"Keep your eyes on the stormtroopers." Poe said into his radio."We will watch Kylo Ren."
Everyone sat or stood in awkward silence for more time than they wanted. It was tense, everyone aiming at one another made every second seem like a minute.
"Ben." Rey finally breathed out with a sigh. She looked up at him with those eyes again, from when they were in the elevator to Snoke. Kylo reached up to his helmet, the front part clicked forward to allowed easy access to get it on and off. His long slightly curly hair sprang free, the wind catching it and blowing it out of his face.
He brought it to his side and dropped it into the dirt, everyone seemed to have forgotten to watch their enemy, as they all were curious with the scene before them unfolding. Rey smiled when she locked eyes with him, he still wore his expressionless face.
"Hey, all blasters pointed towards Ren, he's drawing his lightsaber!" Poe commanded into his radio. Kylo actually did grab his saber hilt, but did the opposite of what was said. He held it to the side and dropped it beside his helmet. Then the unthinkable happened, Kylo dropped to his knees in front of Rey, his head bowed. He hurt in so many ways, all the emotions, this was how he could show he needed help.
The stormtroopers watched confused on what their Supreme Leader was doing. Unsure, one dropped their weapon and took a knee. It was a domino effect, one by one they dropped their blasters and kneeled.
The resistance fighters watched in amazement, but what about them? They seemed to put more pressure in the air with their weapons.
"Lower your weapons, but keep them hot." Finn order, he earned himself the death glare from Poe. Some hesistated until Chewie gave them a growl in their direction.
"Ben?" Rey looked down. Kylos shoulders were slumped forward as he fell to his knees. She lowered herself down to meet him. He didn't look up not once
Ben. A raspy voice called out, both of them heard it. It was terrifying, the sound of their voice sent chills down Rey's back and all over.
KYLO REN. The voice sounded more demanding this time, as if it were claiming him, putting him into his rightful place in the world. Kylo clenched his fists as the voice got louder in his head, yet Rey could barely pick up the words at this point. She reach out towards him and gentle placed it on his shoulder.
Remember your place, boy. The raspy voice was ear piercing, Kylo grunted, it felt horrible. He began to sweat excessively and his anger started to build up.
He violently got a hold of Rey's hand and shoved it off of his shoulder, for her protection for whatever is to come.
"Hold your fire, blasters up." Poe whispered as best as he could into his radio, trying not to alarm anyone. The turret and sentry soldiers kept their eyes on the action in the center, waiting for their okay to attack.
Kylo stood up in a panic his face drained of its rosey red color the occasionally appeared on his pale face. His breathing deepened. He looked at Rey as if she was something else, something else and not her.
He called for his lightsaber and ignited it instantly. He swung widly at the her while giving out struggling grunts.
"Ren!" Poe stepped forward but Finn grabbed him and threw him behind Chewie."What-"
"Shh!" Finn warned before he turned back to the scene.
Rey ignited her saber but it was too late for her to do anything. Kylo lunged forward with force, burying his saber deep into Rey's abdomen. She gave an ear piercing scream while falling backwards.
The resistance fighters started to attack under Poe's command, the stormtroopers retrieved their weapons and returned fire.
Kylo's head started to spin, everything started to become normal again, but it was too late for him to realise what he had done. Rey lay on the dirt ground, blood seeping from her wounds, she was struggling to stay conscious. He looked down at the saber hilt in his hand and dropped it.
What has he done.
Black specks started to blur his vision along with tears. It took seconds for him to completley be dizzy, everything turned black and he became unconscious.
Dont hate me I can explain in next chapter.
