Kix ~ Say You'll Remember Me

Kix hadn't known what he was truly asking when he asked you to help him research Fives's discovery. He never truly believed the Kaminoans with what happened to Fives and Tup, and he'd had enough of their lies. You both had.

"I think I found something," Kix said as he looked through the information on the datapad. You quickly made your way over, leaning over so that your face was next to his as you held his shoulders, looking at the holoscreen.

"Right here. It says something about a biochip..."

"Biochip? Wait, I think Fives said something about that," you said while straightening up. "He said it was like...something to control you."

"It says here...oh, Maker! Y/n, it's worse than we thought! It's not just about framing everyone!"

"What? What does it say?" You looked at him as his hands shook slightly.

"It says that with a specific order from the chancellor, the clones could all be made to kill the Jedi without hesitation..." He looked up at you then, a fearful look in his eyes. "I could kill you..."

"No, Kix, it won't come to that. We can find out how to get it out. We will get it out, I promise," you said while gently taking his hands.

"What did I do to deserve a woman like you?" He said before standing and wrapping his arms around you, his hand running through your hair. You both tilted your heads to connect your lips in a sweet kiss.

"Come on, let's go. We need to find out where we can get this chip out without being questioned."

"What about Kamino?"

"No, that's too dangerous. We might be able to sneak onto a Venator while it's in the hangar, but I wouldn't count on it."

"Let's get out of this town," Kix said, "if someone finds out what we're doing and what we know, it'll be the end for us."

"I agree. I already don't like being on a separatist planet."

You led the way out of the building, heading back across the town where your ship was stationed. Everything was going good for you today, which was strange. It didn't feel right. You glanced back at Kix as you walked, him giving you a small smile as he caught your eye. You loved him more than you felt like you could express, but you always tried your best.

As you made your way through the town, you started to sense people following you. You suddenly stopped and pulled Kix in for a kiss. He was slightly caught off guard but quickly returned it.

"We're being followed," you mumbled onto his lips before pulling back to gaze lovingly at him.

"So you weren't just kissing me for the hells of it?" He asked, quirking a brow at you while smirking. You rolled your eyes at him before turning to walk again, your hand grasping his tightly.

"So, we going to fight?" He mumbled as you leaned your head on his shoulder.

"Mmm, if they attack us first," you reply quietly.

As you approached your ship, you slowed again, eyeing it before taking a cautious step onto the ramp.

"Run!" You yelled, pushing him back with the force as you jumped away. A second later, the shuttle blew up and the people who had been trailing you came out of the trees.

"What should we do with the girl? She wasn't mentioned before!" One of the attackers shouted.

"Kill her, she's not who Dooku wants. Keep the clone alive!" Another shouted back.

Kix saw the end as it began. They surrounded you, got between you and him. He couldn't do anything to help as they overpowered you, knocking your lightsaber from your hand. All he could do was yell as he ran back to you, watching your saber roll away from you. He shot at your attackers, causing them to fall limply to the ground.

When he reached you, his throat let out a pained sound as he saw the blaster shots riddling your form. Your normally red lips and rosy cheeks were now pale as the life drained slowly from you.

"Y/n! You're going to be okay!" He said frantically, reaching out to grab you and pull you to him.

"Say you'll remember me..." you breathed out raggedly, weak fingers grasping at his armor.

"N-no, y/n! I won't have to remember, because you'll be with me! You're going to live!" He pleaded as tears streamed down his face. "I-I just need to get you to a new ship, then we can fly you to a medcenter!"

"Kix, please..." you said, a hand moving to cup his cheek.

"No! No no no! Y/n, I've lost so many, I can't lose you too!" His hands were in your hair as he held you, fingers tangling as he tried to gain control of his mind so that he could think. He needed to save you.

"Kix, listen to me. I have a request."

"What, y/n? I'll do anything!"

"My last request is...stare at the sunset with me, one last time. Just like we do every night. Just the two of us."

Kix's glossy eyes stared at you as if you were the craziest person, but he slowly moved to the side and pulled you into him. The colors in the sky danced around happily, as if this wasn't the end of everything for Kix. As if your body in his arms wasn't becoming heavier by the second. The beautiful colors were taunting him. And he couldn't find the usual peace that came with them.

"Say you'll see me again, Kix. Even if it's just in your wildest dreams," you whispered, moving your head to gaze into his eyes. He looked down at you and more tears fell, some falling onto your cheeks. He held your cheek softly and bent down, pressing his forehead to yours in a keldabe kiss.

"Even if it's just in your wildest dreams..."
"I will...I love you, y/n."

"I love you too, Kix."

After those softly spoken words, he felt you go completely limp in his arms. He finally let out proper sobs, clutching your body to his chest as if the force of his love could bring you back. His own body trembled in emotional pain that hurt so much it was almost physical pain.

His sobs covered up the sounds of more attackers approaching. They caught him off guard, ripping him away from you. He screamed as they threw your body carelessly aside, dragging him to their ship.

They took him somewhere, Kix didn't know where. Didn't care where. He was numb, broken. He just wanted you back.

They interrogated him, but nothing worked. He wouldn't talk. They couldn't bribe him because he'd already lost the most important thing to him...you. When they shoved him into the cryo-pod, he didn't resist.

The galaxy was different, it wasn't like it was during the clone wars. It was lonely. All his brothers were gone, dead. And so were you.
But there was one place he could always go to see you, whenever he wanted.

It was in his wildest dreams that he always remembered you.
