Star Wars: Bow to Me Part 2

Fires of the Resistance

First Order Stardestroyer - Kylo Ren's Chambers

He entered the room and closed the door behind him with a glance. He closed the blinds over the windows as he breathed in and out. He checked again to make sure the door was locked. And again. He was nervous, that was certain. He then inhaled and exhaled before he removed his mask. He put it on his nightstand as he walked over to the Holopad. He got down on one knee.

"Supreme Leader, I am calling to you, for guidance." Kylo spoke as the image of Snoke appeared in front of him. The Supreme Leader of the First Order stared down at his apprentice. He studied the young man's features and instantly caught on.

Snoke spoke with a demanding voice. "You caught her, didn't you? The Scavenger? You have her, don't you!" He said and Kylo nodded in response. "I am proud, my faithful apprentice. I am impressed. I knew your skills would be enough to justify an easy victory."

Again, Kylo nodded. "I also captured the defective Stormtrooper, FN-2187. He calls himself Finn. Captain Phasma told me you had plans for him meant to be carried out by her. I simply wish to confirm the truth of this."

Snoke chuckled at this. "Yes, this is true. The reasoning for the brainwashing to wear off was quite a predicament. I wish to have the best examine it at all costs." He said. Kylo felt like he could sense the fact that Snoke was hiding something. However, he chose not to explore it further. "Though, tell me more about this girl. How did you accomplish a victory over her."

Kylo raised his head and stood up. "The Force… there was a disconnect. It seemed as if it stopped allowing her to use its power. Along with that, her lightsaber combat skills were… pathetic to say the least. I made an example of her…"

Snoke seemed to take notice of something. The two lightsabers at Kylo's side. "That saber… it can't be… Is it…" With an incomprehensible laugh, Snoke summoned the lightsaber from Kylo's side and let it rest in the air as he studied it. "This… This… This is Anakin Skywalker's. This lightsaber was believed to have been lost in Cloud City decades ago. Yet you tell me, she had it?"

Kylo nodded in response. "Yes. I have… corrupted the crystal. It now bleeds the red of mine."

Snoke once again let out a triumphant laugh. Why it was triumphant, Kylo had no clue. "Then it seems, the time is now. For you to Journey to Coruscant, my apprentice. There I will relay the rest of the information of your mission to you. Take the girl. She may have more to do with this than I once believed." He said as the transmission cut off. The lightsaber fell and Kylo caught it in his hand.

"Coruscant… what can await me there…" Kylo thought to himself as he rested the lightsaber on his side. Once again, he was left alone with his thoughts.

The Lower Levels

Finn awoke once again with a scream as he looked around. He breathed for a moment as he looked around. He was trying to get a grasp on his surroundings. Before he realized. He was free. Without hesitation, he got off the table. He looked around, searching for an exit. He had never been this low within a Stardestroyer.

"FN-2187. My brother." A voice called out from the shadows. Finn froze on the spot as he turned around. There he saw a Stromtrooper step out. He looked at Finn, a blaster in hand. "We've been set up on a mission to eliminate a Rebel cell."

"Brother… Mission? I'm sorry man but I'm not one of you. I'm with the Resistance." Finn said as he reached into his coat's inner pocket. There he searched for, but couldn't find his hidden blaster.

The Stormtrooper only walked towards him though. No fear was present. "You are not one of us. We are one of you." He said. Then another Stromtrooper walked up from behind Finn, spooking him.

"WOAH-" Finn shouted as another Stromtrooper walked up behind him. Then another. And another. Until there were roughly five or so Troopers surrounding him. "What- What is this?!" He asked. The Troopers remained silent and still. Until one removed his mask. Much to Finn's horror, a man with the same face looked back.

"We are Captain Phasma's Personal Squad. The FN-Squad. We have the skill and data of the Elite Clone Commandos from The Clone Wars. We are a higher breed. I am FN-X218. We are your brothers."

Finn's mouth could only drop. Clones? They had Cloned him. He had heard The First Order was looking into cloning to reduce the number of kidnapped children. However, he had believed there were rumors. Nothing more. "How- how is this possible. Cloning was outlawed after The Clone Wars- years ago. And how are you already my size and age… This- this is impossible. I can't-"

"Believe it." The voice of Phasma echoed as she entered the room. "Welcome to the Squad FN-2187. Meet your brothers." She said and the Clones all saluted to Phasma. "You are quite Unorthodox 2187. You were the perfect first test subject."

The Clones all stepped back, pushing Finn to his knees in front of Phasma. "Your next mission begins in a few hours. Prepare to fight for The First Order once again. And try not to die or run off like last time." She said, looking down at Finn who was still in a state of disbelief. "You five, get him suited into his new armor."

She then turned and walked away from him. Leaving the Five Troopers surrounding Finn. Who could only hope for one person to wake him up. "REY!" He shouted as the door closed.

Rey's Chamber

"REY!"

Finn's voice echoed in her mind as she awoke with sweat running down her head. She had heard him. She had sensed him. She could feel that he was close by. She could feel his fear and worry for certain.

"You're awake. Good." A voice said as he entered the room. "I was hoping I'd have to wake you up by force. Unfortunately, that seems to not be the case." He said.

Rey looked up to Kylo without fear. Only rage and hatred. "You." She said as she rolled off her bed and charged at him, only for him to push her back to the ground. "WHERE IS FINN!" She shouted as she got back up and ran at him, only for Kylo to dodge the swing from her metal fist, block the strike from her other, and finish the confrontation with a headbutt.

"He is being… dealt with. You, you're coming with me." Kylo said to her without even a hint of regret.

"Why would I ever come with you anywhere. You're a murder, a kidnapper, and the man who I will strike down with every ounce of my being. You're a monster." Rey said to Kylo as she stood up.

"Maybe I am a monster. However, if you want to live, you will listen and do as I say." Kylo said to her. "I don't want to hurt you. I need you. To take my prove myself. So I can take my rightful place. At the top." He said.

Rey only looked at him. "... I won't tell you where Luke Skywalker is."

"Luke Skywalker's fate is up to the Supreme Leader. He has sent us on another task for the moment." Kylo said as he turned to leave. "Nobody knows where he is, now do they?" He said as he turned his head back, as Rey held her head down. Kylo sensed something. Something faint. He turned and looked at her. "Do they know where he is?"

"No, I was the only one able to connect the dots to his location." Rey said. Hiding her grin.

Kylo paused and tried to focus on that feeling again. Only to find nothing.

Resistance HQ

"We lost Rey and Finn to The First Order, Chewbacca confirmed this. And Han Solo is... They are aboard Kylo Ren's main ship." Poe Dameron whispered to Leia. "However, we can't lose hope. Not yet. We know where Luke Skywalker is. We have the map that leads to him." He continued.

Leia only rested herself. "Then we need to focus on that. We need to get to Luke, he may be the key to ending all of this." She said as she rested her hand upon Poe, reassuring him. "Me, Chewie, and Artoo will go to Luke." She said as she began to walk towards the Wookie who let out a happy roar at the sight of her. The two embracing one another.

"Where will we go then? The First Order will be hunting us down." Poe asked.

Leia only smiled. "The news of Luke Skywalker being found has spread throughout the Galaxy. That is for sure. However, what they don't know is that we have it. We'll bring Luke back. You all must go to the other Resistance factions. We'll need an army for what will happen when Luke returns." She said, confident and hopeful.

Poe nodded to her and gave her a hug of his own. "I won't fail you. Not this time. Princess Leia." He said as Leia chuckled.

"Princess Leia eh? That's a name I haven't heard in a very, very long time." She said as she and Chewbacca went over to the Millenium Falcon.

As Poe began to inform everybody of the plan, the droid BB-8 rolled over to Poe and let out a few beeps. Popping out a chip the pilot expertly caught.

"Is this… Did you just get this?" He asked and BB-8 gave a positive beep. That lead to to the revelation of a few of the large Resistance cells.

"They all, they are forming up against The First Order… Even the New Republic is. Now all they need is a figure to unite under…" Poe said as he looked over to Leia who smiled at him. She mouthed the worse "Hope" to him.

With the fires of the Resistance now ignited brighter than ever, Poe and the rest of the Resistance prepared for takeoff.

First Order Stardestroyer - Takeoff Zone

As Kylo and Rey boarded the ship, he looked down to Phasma. "Good luck to you." He said and Phasma gave a nod as she stepped up.

"Good luck, our next Supreme Leader." She whispered.

The two stepped away from one another, as they looked at one another with confidence.

Chapter 2: END

A/N: I wonder how Luke Skywalker will fit in the plot of this. So many plotlines, Kylo-Ren and Rey, Phasma & Finn & the Clone FN-X Squad, and now the Resistance & The Search for Luke Skywalker? This may be a bit longer than intended. I wonder how they all will mesh for the Finale.
