Once a upon a time …

In a galaxy far far away.

"You need a teacher," a male voice shouted as he leaned forward agents the other being, a small woman, clashing swords with him. "I can show you the ways of the force!" He slightly pushed back. "The force!" She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The tables now being turned against him as her raw power began to get stronger. Her push became vigorous; it started to over come him. As they continued this power struggle each fought back the others lightsaber. Eventually he lost balance and slipped giving the smaller girl an opening. She lashed her saber down on his body. It slashed his face into two. The ground began to rubble. The dirt beneath them seemed to separate one another. He stared intensely at the woman across the way. Whom was defiantly standing there staring back at him. "CUT!" A loud ring was heard across the studio. The director then went to the small screen to see if all the frames was exactly how they envisioned it would be. A pleased smirk played on the side of his face. "That was great you two! You both even did better than my exception," The director joyously commented. "Okay, so next I want a extreme close up shot on Ren's face staring at her. It should show him in bewilderment of her power." The man in the dark robes listened intently of what needed to be done and nodded in understanding. "After that we can all take a break."

It all started not that long ago, when our heroine had this destined script land on her lap. Kyoko Mogami would have never expected such a experience would come to her.

When she entered telento office of L.M.E her manager had a woolgathering air about him. Kyoko was instantly bemused at the sight of him. "Yashiro - san, do you have another cold?" Her first instinct sparked. Instantly demanding that he motioned for a quickly sit down. Yashiro waved his hands denying the need. "No…No-na-no! Kyoko - chan! I have an offer I know you will not refuse, Kyoko - chan, " Yashiro started to boast but was too excited over his news. "It's an opportunity of a life time!" He started to squeal and fidget. Kyoko's brow arced with confusion. Still not sure how to handle her super manager when he got like ... well this . Usually he would only behave in such acts when he starts getting crazy fantasies about her and her Senpai. To see him in such an unprofessional manner when it came to job opportunities was definitely a first for her. She had to admit it peaked her interest even more. "Well, what is 'this so called' offer?" She quickly changed expectations for curious to stern,"Yashiro- san if it's another mean role—" "Oh no Kyoko-can, I don't think it will be..— At least I sincerely hope not. I do not know too much information about the project myself," Yashiro paced slowly starting to come down from his high. He checked his watch to see the time. "He should be here any minute. I should wait for him to come to talk more about this project." An urge over came Her. Trailing her eyes round the manger. Kyoko questioned his sanity, "Him". Yashiro only had a devious smile come across his face. As if the devil himself infected his body. A hint of a bad omen. Kyoko felt her stomach turn into knots. She really didn't want to hear the rest.

Ren Tsuruga parked his car at the back entrance of the L.M.E building. He nonchalantly exited, locked it and strode into the elevator. Listing in his head the things he needed to do that day. He knew he was an hour ahead of schedule. Also had a meeting with Yashiro at some point to discuss future projects. What he did not know, (but hoped) was that he would be fortunate to run into her today. Not in her bright pink uniform that would steal your eyes. But even in her floral dress the effect was just the same. Ren was fixated on her. Snapping quickly back from his trance with the ding of the elevator. Stepping out, he walked over to the confused girl and the giddy man-child. "Reennn…," Yashiro had a devious smile plastered on. And with that he quickly turned right back around. Yashiro grabbed at his arm instantly. Prying for him to come back. "Whatever it is that you are up to— I am not going for it," Ren continued to try and walk away. Witnessing the duo interact, "Yashiro - san said that he has a project that involves the both of us," Kyoko made her presence known (as if it wasn't). Ren stopped in his tracts. "Good morning, Mogami - san" His words rang as his mouth curved into a smile at her. "Good morning, Tsuruga - san" She gave him a sweet soft smile back. Ren glanced over at their manger, "Alright, if it is work related I will listen to it." He's eyes stood on their manager awaiting to hear his response for all this. I could have sworn he was going to tease me about something related to her, Ren thought not fully buying his managers intent. Yashiro fixed his glasses and examined around. Learning in with a cleared throat he placed a hand over mouth, "We should head somewhere private." Glancing round once more before ushering them to a quiet room.

Once in a secured room Yashiro placed two concept scrips out on the office desk. One of the highlighted scenes were designed for a female role, the other a male. Both labeled for their respective talents. They both reached for their scrips. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin was written on the cover page. Ren Tsuruga raised a brow in curiosity. As for Kyoko, well… her eyes begin to sparkle. She was looking at the golden gates of her fairy world. Rich young ladies! Fancy white dogs! Giant umbrella's! She was picturing what a victorian wealthy woman would look and behave like. A part she was dying to play.

Ren glanced over, firmly holding back his urge to laugh. He has known her well enough to practically see her at the golden gates of her own little world. Clearing his own throat to gain back his composure. Ren turned his attention to their manager. "Yashiro, I do not quite understand. Why are we so secretive about Pride and Prejudice?" Ren's arm outreached to grab his handed copy. His eyes scanned through his highlighted parts. Yashiro started to feel high and mighty, his excitement tearing at the seems of his lips. "Well I received an interesting call not that long ago from a well known company requesting for you to audition for a under lockdown project. They heard about your dual role as BJ and Cain observing you, they want to put you on their shortlist for this project." Hearing Yashiro's words Kyoko's chest budded with pride for all of her senpai's hard work. She witness him go through war with the darkness; with himself. Over countless the times she thought she almost lost him. To actually physically see more doors open for him… was amazing. A light hint of red rushed across her face.

"Kyoko- chan?" Yashiro call out snapping her back to the present. She didn't realized that she was lost in another reverie. She turned her attention to Yashiro, "Now for you, Kyoko- chan. Do not worry! I pulled a little string and mentioned that both of my clients are extremely talented. I sent them a reel of all your roles that you had so far. They said that they were amazed that you made each role your own. They loved that they couldn't tell you were all the same girl in all of them." Kyoko knew that was supposed to be a compliment. But... that it just proved to her that she still has lot more climbing to go. Nothing close to the man that is sitting right next to me, She thought. She stole a glance only to meet eyes looking back at her. Hand was resting in between the desk and holding his head up. She quickly looked away.

Ren decided not to question her behavior and paid his attention back to Yashiro. Whom continued to speak, " Now this script is just a concept script. I have no full idea what the final product will come out to be. They want you to get a feel of you both. But given that the company that is interested in you two is Disney —" Kyoko stood up in excitement after hearing the D- word. "— I think it is a pretty safe bet—" Kyoko cut him off. Grabbing Yashiro by the shirt. Pulling him in with outward point of view that looked murderous. Deathly seriousness, "SAY IT AGAIN," She demanded. Yashiro Gulped, "Disney." "Again!" A whimper escaped the meek man,"…Disney." Realizing this could go on forever Ren stepped in. He gently pulled Kyoko's arm off of Yashiro. "Mogami- san I understand you are excited…" He didn't need to finish the sentence. She realized the error in her ways and sat back down in embarrassment.

Ren let out a sigh and a slight chuckle. Taking his seat right next to her. His model slender legs crossed. Unaware of his body language as it tilted towards her. "When you say…" His gaze darted to the fearsome woman, considering her "the D-word…. I am assuming you mean D-Japan," Ren questioned. Yashiro now hesitant (Understandably), "N-no… I mean Dee—" he took a quick glance over at Kyoko and halted "—neee.. United States. …Hollywood." Both actors are wide eyed and gaped at this information. Kyoko had a million thoughts running though her mind. Ren…just one… Kuon Hizuri.

Authors Notes:

AU: Where Ren and Kyoko play in a star wars movie. After Seeing TLJ I kinda wanted to make this. I thought it would be fun to see Ren play Kylo Ren. And Kyoko play Rey. We all know they are great actors that can definitely do it. And this is all my opinion but I can kinda see the parallels between the two Rens' (both failed and gave into their darkness. Both dealing with a legacy of their family holding them down. And a couple of more things.) and Rey/ Kyoko (the main one being abandoned by their biological families). That is mainly one of the reasons. Definitely can see them just actually relating to them at the very lest. Another opinion I can kinda see Adam Driver playing Ren in my dream cast. Both same hight (tall as efff like a house), have narrow faces, act amazingly and can basically be a model. Daisy with Kyoko not so much but hey—they are both adorable, tiny and awesome actresses. Some of things were taken form the actual star wars casting process. Oh and some scenes may have hint of Reylo in it. If you really despise Reylo you have a few options; 1 just think it's just two actors playing a part (Ren/Kyoko) and get over it. Or don't read. Please I don't want to read long winded comments about anti-comments. It's a waste of everyones time.

Anyway…

Let's see how this all plays out! I would love to hear feed back. This story has no clear goal yet. SO If you have any tidbit of ideas I am always open to hear them! Just be nice. :)

Also does this count as a crossover?
