Kylo Ren POV:

I hurried to my own room not knowing how longer I could contain my anger. Once in I removed my mask and slammed it against the wall. I pulled out my lightsaber and destroyed everything in my reach. I didn't bother noticing the destroyed items all I fixed my eyes on was the red light which represented my anger. I don't know how long I did this, but once I grew tired I noticed I didn't leave a single piece of furniture untouched. She was the cause for my mix of emotions and for my sudden outburst of anger. While I continued to huff out of the loss of air, I sat down near the corner of my room and let myself be taken over by my thoughts.

I knew I hurt her, but she didn't understand I was hurt too. I regretted killing my father, but it was the only way to assure Snoke that I could complete my training and finish what my grandfather started. It killed me to know I was the cause of Rey's pain. I can't explain the connection I felt towards her or the sudden feeling I felt whenever I was close to her, whenever our skin touched I felt a shiver run down my spine. I half lied when I told her the only reason I saved her from the near brink of death was for her power, but the other truth was that just the thought of her dying brought me deep sadness and it was nothing something I would let happen. When she fled from my touch it only made me hate myself even more.

My thoughts came to a sudden vault because of General Hux's intrusion.

" Supreme Leader Snoke requests your presence immediately," he spoke coldly.

I picked up my lightsaber and mask and followed General Hux out.

After a couple minutes of walking in silence, we arrived to the usual room where the three of us met.

Once in I was greeted by Supreme Leader Snoke's hologram.

" Kylo Ren, I see you are well again." He greeted.

"Yes master."

"Good, good. How is our scavenger doing?" Smoke asked.

" She finally woke up today master, her wounds seem to be healed. She should be ready to begin training as soon as you give the order."

"That's great news, have her begin training tomorrow morning." He instructed.

"As you say master."

"You may leave now." he ordered.

"Oh and before you leave Kylo, I would like to remind you that your only job is to lead her to join the Dark side and train her to learn her abilities and power. I don't care how you convince her, but you must not build compassion towards her, do you understand?"

I didn't trust my voice to respond strongly so I simply nodded and made my way out being bid farewell with the wide smirk plastered on General Hux's lips. If only I could use the force to wipe it off his stupid face.

I made my way down the dark hallway to come face to face with the room where Rey was being held.

"Open the door." I ordered.

Stormtroopers didn't waste a second in obeying my command.

I found Rey attempting to break free from the cuffs, but it was no use, she wouldn't be escaping so easily this time. Her hair was messier than before and small droplets of sweat were forming on the sides of her forehead. Her dark brown orbs stared into mine and clearly showed the hatred she felt towards me. It hurt to know that was the only way she could look at me. Our eye contact lasted only a few mere seconds until she turned her head and averted her eyes back to the ground. I quickly organized myself and informed her of Snoke's orders.

"I only came to tell you that you're training will be begin tomorrow whether you like it or not. I would really advise you to cooperate unless you want your friends to suffer."

My words caused her jaw to tense up tighter than before, anger was flowing through her veins and I found it best to leave her alone to rest for now. I wouldn't bother her anymore for tonight.

I made my way out and heard a small set of whimpers escape her lips just before I left. At that moment I want to console her, but I couldn't, I need to control myself. I could not let my emotions interfere my plans.

Rey's POV:

I hated him with every single bone in my body. I couldn't stand him. I couldn't stand the way he looked at me as if I were some weak girl. I couldn't stand the sound of his voice and even worse I couldn't stand his presence. To know he stood only a few feet or inches near me made me sick.

I didn't want to be here I wanted to be reunited with Finn and Poe. I wanted to be there when General Leia found out that her son was responsible for the loss of the man she loved her. I wanted to be there to console and promise her that everything would be fine in the end. I wanted to be around those who actually cared for me and not for the abilities I could learn. I would rather be anywhere than here. I would even want to be back on Jakku, even if it meant I would be alone fending for myself again. I had to find a way to escape, there had to be a way out.

I thought cautiously of a plan to escape and suddenly it came to me.
I would earn Kylo's trust. I would pretend to go along with his training only for me to become stronger than him. I would lead him to believe he could trust me and confide in me. If my plan succeeded I could be discovering the real location of my friends and most possibly be escaping with them if they were actually being held hostage as Kylo said. This could actually work. I had to be careful on how I acted from now on, I couldn't give the smallest hint of what I had planned or else it would be the end for me.

~The Following Day~

I was woken up by the loud noise of machines working and harsh footsteps of what must be the Stormtroopers, but it didn't matter I didn't get much sleep anyway. I was being haunted by the memory of Han Solo's death.

I attempted to free my wrists and ankles from the cuffs again, but it was no use. I would just have to wait for Kylo to show up and release me then.

Right on cue, he appeared by the entrance wearing his usual black suit, but his face was cleared of his mask. In one he held a clean pair of clothes which was probably for me.

"I hope you rested well, today will be a long day and you're going to need all the energy you can get." He spoke up.

"What are you going to show me the Dark side of the force?" I joked.

He lightly laughed and a small smirk formed on the curve of his lips. "Actually no, unless if that's what you want to do."

His brown eyes stared directly into mine causing an uneasy feeling to form in the pit of my stomach. This unusual feeling caused me to turn away since I didn't know any other way to react.

"Would you mind uncuffing me please." I asked politely.

"Oh yeah sorry about that."

Soon enough I was released from the horrible cuffs and I could feel my blood circulating again.

"Here's some clean clothes for you to change into." He handed me a pair of black leathers pants and a black t-shirt. It was exactly the best choice of wardrobe, but it would do for now.

"Would you mind stepping out for a moment, while I change?" I asked shyly. What was wrong with me? Why was I suddenly acting like this?

"Right, I'll wait for you outside. Don't take long, the more time we have the better." He stepped out and shut the door leaving me a alone for a couple of minutes.

In just a few minutes I was finished dressing and my hair was styled back into its normal up do. I exited the room and met up with Kylo who was waiting for me patiently.

"Well then, let's begin." He spoke as we started our way down the hallway.

A/N: After some complications with this posting this chapter, I was finally able to rewrite it and here it is. Hope you all enjoy!
