Chapter 15 – Trump's taking the attention

"You did pack the rocket boots right?" Kylo called to Rey as he came in to land the ship. They had just arrived on the planet of which they first met Trump. Rey remembered it clearly, Kylo killing a comrade, Trump falling, Trump landing… The memories gave her shivers as she doubled checked for the boots.

"Yep," she answered, pulling out two pairs from the storage room. The ship touched down and Kylo left the panel. Rey tossed him a pair of boots as she began to strap hers on. "What do we do when we get there?" she asked him, snapping the buckles.

"We search for Trump and bring him back. Supreme Leader wants him alive," Kylo instructed. He stood up and took a few paces in the boots. As the portal was in the sky, they needed to fly to reach it. "You ready?" he double- checked with her feeling a spike of anticipation.

"Ready as I'll ever be," she confirmed and took his hand as they stepped outside.

The skies were as dark and stormy as they had been on the original night. Trump had left an imprint on the ground when he fell which was still there, plastered into the mud.

"This is the spot," she shuddered as she remembered the weight of him on top of her. They kicked their boots alive and began to ascend towards the portal. As they soared higher so did their anxieties. They both had no idea what Earth looked like or whether it was even a peaceful planet. Kylo remembered Snoke telling him about Trump Tower and how Trump will most likely be there but that was little help.

With one final look the couple dived into the portal.

They hit the ground hard when they fell through. The pair kicked off their boots immediately and stood up. They grasped their sabers tightly in case of an enemy attack. Kylo stiffened when he saw the 'enemy' in the room. An old man in a lab coat was curled into a tight ball in the corner of the room. He was shivering and quivering making a terrified shriek as he noticed Kylo and Rey.

Rey gently approached him and released the grasp on her saber.

"We're not here to hurt you… We're looking for Trump," she spoke softly. Kylo admired her gentle way with words.

"H… He came through here," the man stuttered, "He had a… a laser sword… He's gone to do a press release. Says he's going to… to take over the world." The man curled into a tighter ball and sniffled.

"Come," Kylo told her harshly, "This man is no help." Kylo moved towards the door and used the force to push it open. He stopped and flexed his hand. "The force is different here," he noted, "but it is still strong… I think Trump is going to use mind tricks on the people of Earth."

Rey nodded and stood by him. She took one final look at the scientist before leaving him in the corner. She knew that she did not have time to help him anymore.

When they finally made it out of Trump Tower they saw a large mob gathered just outside the building. Cameras were flashing and people were throwing questions. Rey gasped as she looked around. The atmosphere was clean and there were no star ships anywhere. Humans were walking down the streets in strange clothes. She even noticed some of them stare at her in funny ways.

"Trump's over there," Kylo hissed, about to ignite his lightsaber but Rey stopped him.

"You saw how that old man reacted to Trump's saber. We don't want to hurt them, remember?" Rey's wise words flowed into his ears and he took notice. He was here for Trump and Trump alone. The First Order had no quarrel with this unknown planet.

Before they had a chance to approach him a small child ran in front of the pair and squealed.

"Eeek! Mommy, look! It's Kilo Ren and Rey from Star Wars," the small child grabbed onto Rey's leg and jumped up and down. Rey felt very confused she had never heard of 'Star Wars'. Was it another planet perhaps?

"Rey!" Kylo stepped back, "Careful, it might be dangerous," He looked very afraid but Rey just smiled at him. At that moment the mother of the child ran forwards and took its hand.

"So sorry about that, nice costumes by the way… Good luck on the new movie," the mother called as she ushered the child away.

"That was weird," Rey remarked and Kylo stepped back by her side.

"Agreed," he responded. "But now… We need to deal with Trump," Kylo concluded and marched forward to the gaggle of people. He was about to use the force to clear a path but the Press turned on him.

"It's the cast of Star Wars!" One of the reporters called and they flooded towards him with microphones and cameras. Kylo flinched and backed away but they wouldn't leave him alone. Rey stood next to him back to back as they were surrounded by reporters. She spotted Trump scowling at them.

"If you don't start filming me again I'm going to lower wages by 10% when I'm president!" Trump bellowed and the reporters stood back from Kylo and Rey. The sea of journalists slowly trickled back to Trump and focused their cameras on him face as Trump began to address the camera.

"You will all vote for me in the next election," Trump was using mind tricks.

"We have to stop him!" Rey shouted and Kylo nodded. They both ignited their sabers causing the cameras to turn and fixate on them again, much to Trump's displeasure. People nearby gasped and laughed; they all believed it to be some kind of show.

Trump also whipped out his saber and ignited it. The cameras were torn, unsure of who to focus on. Billboards attached to skyscrapers that were displaying news now displayed Trump twirling his saber and stalking Kylo and Rey.

"Don't underestimate my power!" Trump called in his thick accent, readying his saber. "You can't defeat me… Not even your Supreme Leader can save you now,"

"We'll see about that, Trump," Kylo hissed back, leaping towards Trump with his saber crackling and sparking.
