Unmasked

Dream Of Me

Kylo's P.O.V

The dream was haunting me. It was one I couldn't escape.

*****

Her piercing eyes seemed to stare straight into my soul, and dig out my deepest secrets. Her eyes held back her own thoughts however, so no matter how much pain I put the both of us in, I learnt nothing.

"You're wasting your time, Kylo." She muttered through a gasp of pain.

A spurr of anger made me dive deeper in her thoughts.

"If you simply said please, I would answer your questions." She carried on.

The words struck me as suspicious, so I ignored them, walking closer to her, and sensing her chain of strength about to break. She sensed it too.

She cried out in pain, and suddenly, one simple thought came free.

I thought you would understand.

I clung to it, but continued to press her, until finally, the chain smashed itself into a million peices. Her thoughts were now mine, and I filed the them all away, every last one. I would search them later.

She was gasping for breath, but I was suprisingly a peace. I had succeeded my job, and Snoke would be pleased.

Her eyes found mine once again, and they were filled with an actual emotion.

Hurt.

I had caused a great dispair inside her, though I was unsure how. It didn't matter. She was mine now.

I let the corner of my mouth slide up in a tiny smile. I rarely allowed myself to smile, but I deserved at least that.

"You are hurt." I stated.

She said nothing, her breaths coming out short and sharp. I walked forward until my face was close to her. Her breathing hitched, and she leant back.

Still, I leaned in until our noses were almost touching.

"Why are you hurt? Answer my question truthfully... please." I added with a raised eyebrow.

After a moment silence, she answered.

"I thought you would understand." She muttered.

"Understand what?" I asked.

"That cocktail of feelings that consume you like the darkness you have become."

Rage overcame me.

"You think you know darkness?! How would you feel if you were taken from your family from a young age, and taught to rid yourself of every emotion you had ever felt, even the pleasant ones?!"

"I was born without feelings."

"Oh?! Would have been able destroy the lives of over 24 million people without batting an eyelid simply because you wanted more power?"

"Probably."

"And what about family? Could you have killed your own father because he was in the way of your plans?"

At this she went silent, and glanced at the floor.

I searched the memories I'd stolen from her.

"You won't find it in there." She muttered. "It's something only I can ever know."

"Do you really think you could be worse than me?" I asked gently. "What could you have done that is worse than what I have done?"

"While you could kill millions of strangers, and your father, I made whole village dissapear along with my family, simply because I was bored."

"Dissapear? How so?" I was utterly confused.

Her next words froze me.

"I killed every last one of them."

My eyes flashed open.

I know it's a short chapter, but I hope the gif of Ren makes up for it. :) Just replace Rey with Pixel.

Enjoy Felow Wattpadders.
