Jedha clenched her jaw as the troopers tossed her into the snow. Her face still bloodied along with her vision that was clouded by red liquid.

She held back her moans as she bit her lip flipping onto her back staring up at Ren. He watched her, her chest rising up and down and her breath clouding in front of her face.

Squatting in front of the girl, Ren couldn't help but smirk at the bloodied mess she'd become.

Her eyes fixated on his mask, he stared down at her, his arms resting on his knees and his robe billowing below him.

"Did we learn to have some more respect since last time I was here?" Ren asked peering at the girl.

Jedha pursed her lips, spitting at him as she he stood above her, her saliva sticking to the front of his mask. She smirked as Ren wiped away the spit, pausing.

She jumped as Ren grabbed her by the neck, pulling her towards him. She felt his fingers twitch against her skin as her airway had cut off. Her hand clasped around his giant wrist, attempting to pull him away but failed.

His breath fogged the inside of his mask as he held himself back from doing any further damage to her face.

"Do it," she managed, "Kill me."

Ren chuckled deeply, "You make it hard not to."

Releasing her throat, her head fell to the ground with a thud as she gasped for air, turning onto her side.

Ren shook his head in disappointment as he stood up. Her eyes followed him and managed to spot Dain behind, a worried look cast across his face.

Ren snapped at the guards, motioning from them to stand her up. Grabbing her arms, they peeled the girl from the ground as her head fell forward.

"I think you have a good understanding of why I'm here."

The words slipped from his mask aggressively hurting her ears as Ren stood in front of her.

"No I don't think I do." Jedha responded, her voice cracking midway through as a slick smile crawled across her face, "Enlighten me."

Ren clenched his fists at his side before reaching into one of his pockets, pulling out the black holopuck and holding it in his hand.

He didn't even have to speak before Jedha's face became red with rage. Her holopuck for bounty hunting she had stowed away when she had gotten back.

They raided my house.

"You raided my house?" Anger soaked her words as her hands began to shake.

She watched intently as Ren stepped closer, "Only collecting what's mine."

"Which is?" Jedha asked, a look of disgust in her eyes as they were now inches apart from each other.

"You."

She tried to widen her eyes but was hit with a stinging sensation causing her to twinge. "Take her to the ship." His voice growled.

"No! Jedha!" Dain shouted out as he rushed towards the girl only to be stopped by troopers.

Restraining the girl, Jedha started to feel weaker by the second, whether it was the crash from the adrenaline or the loss of blood, her vision began to fade.
