The Spark [1]

Chapter 3

The troopers push us off of the ship.

"Alright. Alright!" Poe says before looking around in awe.

A separate trooper leads us to the brig. I get put in binders and separated from Poe. A trooper comes in and leads me to an interrogation room. Not mine but Poe's. Poe lay bloodied in the chair. He was almost dead.

"I had no idea we had the best pilot in the Resistance on board," Ben says. "Comfortable?"

"Not really," Poe says.

"Ben! Please don't hurt him." I plea.

He snaped around. "Why do you care so much about him?"

"Because he's my friend. Now just don't hurt him," I say.

He stalks towards me. "Then tell me where the map is!"

"You might want to rethink your technique," Poe says.

Ben walks towards Poe, extends an arm, and starts going through his mind. Poe struggles, then gets his head slammed back.

"Where is it?" Ben asks.

Poe looks at him. "The Resistance will not be intimidated by you."

Ben brings him forward. "Where is it?"

"Ben!" I yell trying to get him to stop.

Poe struggles then screams in pain.

I use the Force and grab Ben's lighsaber igniting it in my hand. The trooper with me tries to get it but I kick him. Ben turns around and comes towards me using the Force to snatch it back. He pins me against the wall with the blade an inch from my neck.

"Do it. I dare you," I hiss at him. "You won't. You can't kill your own sister."

He deactivates his lightsaber and slowly starts lifting his helmet off. He takes it in his hand.

"Please come home, Ben. Please."

"I'm sorry, Bree. It's not your fault, but Ben Solo is dead."

"Someone is stopping you from killing me. And that someone is Ben Solo."

He puts his helmet back on. "I love you, Bree."

"No you don't. You're a monster and a murder. You'll never love anyone!"

With that he nods and leaves. Leaving me in the cell with Poe. After the door shuts I rush to Poe's side.

"Poe! I'm so sorry. Thank the Force you're alive."

"What was that?" he asks me.

"What?"

"You and your brother?"

"It was nothing. Are you okay?" I ask putting a hand on his face.

He looks me in the eye. "I'm fine, Ree."

I tilt my head. "No you aren't. I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault. You couldn't stop him. But we need to get out of here."

I agree and the door opens and a new trooper comesin to stand guard. Poe is still breathing and alive. Not in the best condition, but alive.

"Why didn't Ren try to get the information out of you?"

"Because I have the Force. I would have told him if it didn't mean that Uncle Luke would die from it."

"I tried my hardest," he says, shamefully.

"I know, Poe. I know. It wasn't your fault no matter how hard you tried you wouldn't be able to match Ben's strength."

Another trooper entered the room. "Ren wants the prisoners."
