Blaze Of Glory | Kylo Ren

Along For The Ride

Ani's P.O.V.

Something unsettling in the force wakes me up; my eyes blink open to find Kylo still sleeping underneath me. His arm's draped around my waist as he lies on his back, his expression's relaxed in from his slumber. My leg's around his waist when I lift my head from his chest. 

Glancing around, I notice Snip scamper into the bathroom. Frowning at the sight of her, I sit up further from knowing we both feel the commotion in the light side of the force. My hand on Kylo's shoulder moves down to his abdomen so I can straighten up better in the bed. 

Just moving my hand on his chest, Kylo's eyes flutter open tiredly. The first thing his eyes catch is me above him, staring at me confused his hand lifts to my cheek.

"Ani, what is it?"

He grumbles out, half asleep while I look down at him; he instantly notices my concerned expression before glancing behind me. The next moment, his eyes go wide, becoming completely awake; his arm around my waist clings to me forcefully. His hand on my cheek grips the back of my head, and he flips us over toward his side of the bed. 

Falling off the bed, I hear a blast go through the windows and past our bed. I hit the ground with him on top of me as glass breaks all around us. The blast hits the cupboards and they break; the doors fall down on top of us. 

Kylo holds my head against his chest as his hand around my waist comes out to shield the top of our heads. I hear him groan out in pain as the metal doors hit his back and I become suffocated underneath him. We listen to shouting and more blasters go off out from out the windows. 

Using his arm over our head, he lifts the doors on top of us with the force. They get thrown to the opposite corner of the room before Kylo lifts his head to face me.

"Are you okay?"

He blurts out, in a disturbance of what had just happened. He pushes my hair out of my face as I nod silently at him. Lifting his weight off me, he helps me stand up with him before peering out the window. 

I turn my head just in time to see a tie fighter fly out of the hangar; as it disappears I feel the light side of the force soften. Realization hits me of what woke me up; FN-2187 was on that ship with our old light saber. I felt it with the force; he was calling to me. 

My breath catches, knowing he finally escaped this place and had warned me with the force. Kylo inspects my body for any marks. When determining I didn't get hurt, he finally scans around the room.

Glass is everywhere, both windows broke, and it's now in broken pieces covering the bed and floor. There's a large hole in the cupboards and the doors are crushed in the corner. The loveseat's split in half now as well. 

Our bed and loveseat look burnt from the blast of fire. Fire is catching on the mattress, and Kylo tugs me away to the doorway of the bathroom. Going inside, I find Snips in the corner scared. I hear Kylo rummaging through the broken cupboards as I kneel in front of Snips, ordering. 

"Jump, Snips."

She pounces onto my shoulder, and I stand back up with a hand holding her back. Coming out of the bathroom, Kylo's pulling a shirt over him. He's wearing his pants and shoes now with his saber at his hip. 

His eyes catch mine before glancing at snips, grabbing his helmet and my arm he guides us out of the front door quickly. Flames form on the bedsheets as we reach the door. Shoving the broken cupboard doors out of our way with haste, Kylo glances back at the flames growing. With a firm grip on my arm, he blurts out without a thought. 

"Come on. Hurry, Anakia."

He lets me out into the hallway first, before following behind me. I watch him put his helmet on before grabbing my arm again and rushing us down the hall. I watch stormtrooper run pass us in the opposite direction before we reach an elevator.
