Three weeks had passed and I had fought every Knight three times, and I had beaten every Knight three times. I approached the dojos on the Monday of the next week to find a messenger droid waiting at the door.

"Knights of Ren!" It chirped.

"No training today! Commander meeting!"

"Signed, Master Ren!" It finished. I looked at it quizzically. It was odd that he wouldn't just send an instructor, but would cancel training all together. The date for attack had to be nearing, not that I knew when it was.

There hadn't been much information given to the Knights in regards to the mission. We weren't told how we were going to capture Leia, what the overall mission was going to accomplish, when we were going to fight or where. All we were told was that Kylo Ren was leading us, an idea that on it's own made me a bit uneasy.

I went to the main gym and used the track for awhile, and as I ran I watched the Knights I hadn't selected test their skills with practice lightsabers. One Knight kept poking at the other with the blade, and I couldn't help but think that giving them real lightsabers couldn't be a good idea.

I hadn't ever seen Master Ren's lightsaber. I'd only heard about how it's cackling could make birds fly and how the sound of it piercing metal can be heard halfway across the base. I had seen repair droids fixing the broken wires from one of his tantrums, but I had never been there to see it do any damage.

After my run I retired to my rooms. I changed into a nightdress, which was nothing more than a long black shirt, and crawled back into bed with some Takodanian tree nuts. I found them in my pantry, a shipment probably came in and my food droid must've thought I would like them. I clicked on a holovid about a bunch of people flying around looking for two droids when I heard a knock at the door. A knock?

I climbed out of bed and shuffled over to the door. I peeped through the eye hole to see Kylo Ren standing outside, fists balled, pacing slightly. What in the stars was he doing here? Outside my room? Had he come to kill me?

I quickly pushed my helmet onto my head and pulled on my cloak to cover myself and I opened the door.

"Master Ren. To what do I owe this visit?" I asked shakily.

"They want to see you in Supreme Leader Snoke's chambers immediately. I was sent to retrieve you. Get dressed. " He spat.

"Of course, give me a moment." I mumbled as he stepped through the doorway and into my quarters. I ran into my bedroom and quickly put on my gear. I came running back into the entryway and he shuffled me out the door.

...

I didn't have the longest legs to begin with, but Kylo Ren was three inches shy of being a foot taller than me. Keeping up with him was tough.

I hustled behind him through several corridors that I didn't know existed, and I felt like I was running through a maze until we reached a pod. I stepped behind him into the pod and it shot downward, catching me off guard, into the depths of the base.

The ride down took about a minute and we were suddenly spit out into the entryway to Supreme Leader Snoke's chamber. I trotted behind Ren as he stalked across the walkway and up to the massive chair ahead. He stopped in line with the large, empty throne and motioned for me to join him on his right. I did so, and after a few moments, several blue light crystals began to fly and take the form of the Supreme Leader.

I had never had contact with him, I suppose I had never had a reason to. I was always just a soldier, and the First Order did little when it came to moving up the authoritative ladder. Most Knights didn't know what the Supreme Leader looked like. After a moment of thought, I wasn't sure I knew for sure.

I had heard he looked like a skinny bald thing with a lot of scars, however looking at him then I noticed he also had on a cloak. The most outstanding physical aspect of him was his size. I wasn't sure if it was the hologram that enlarged him or if he was really that big, but it was domineering.

"Supreme Leader" Ren said, kneeling. I kneeled next to him and repeated his words and tone in a higher pitched garble.

"Kylo Ren. You have come to tell me about the Knights." The Supreme Leader's voice boomed through the room, creating a chill as if he were here.

"Their abilities are improving. They have more use for The Force and their fighting is not as disgusting." Ren replied. Disgusting? I didn't think I was that bad.

"Good. I hear there is one particular Knight that is different." The Supreme Leader groaned and his beady eyes rested on me.

"Yes, Supreme Leader. I have brought the best of the Knights, as you requested. Rey."

My name sounded weird coming out of his voice changer. He'd said my name a few times, but not enough for me to be used to it.

"Good. Ren, and Rey, you both may rise. Rey, tell me what you have accomplished." I waited for Kylo Ren to stand before I stood then spoke.

"I have fought and defeated each of the Knights I selected to assist in the capture of Leia Organa. I have used the Force to deflect blaster fire and destroy buildings. I have mastered the use of a staff." I recited. The Supreme Leader seemed to nod, and looked to Master Ren.

"This pleases me. This Knight will be the Knight that goes with you to capture Leia Organa." He started, and Ren nodded once.

"You will see to it that this Knight is trained beyond what is given to the other nine." He continued, and another nod.

"How you choose, is to you. speak with General Hux about the location of Leia Organa when you make your plans." He finished.

"I will do as you command."

"Good. I will speak with you soon."

"Supreme leader" Ren murmured, and Supreme Leader Snoke disappeared into the air.
