Kylo was in his office and looking over a plan ... "Ren ?" He turned to see Rey walking in .

"Yes ?" He asked.

"That red headed general is here ... he demanded you come out and ... none of the servants wanted to be the one to tell you"

"He ? Demands that I , the Supreme Leader come out ?! Oh is he going to get it" he stood up and began to march to his door.

Rey stopped him halfway and put her hands on his chest to halt him. "Don't do anything rash" she said.

"I won't Rey -" and she gave him a look as if she was saying 'really' . "I'll just ... curse at him" he chuckled and she rolled her eyes .

"Not in my palace" she said with her hazel eyes meaning business.

"Your palace ?" He asked.

"Yup... my palace ... " she smiled "and it's gonna stay my palace if you want me to stay understood ?"

"Yes Supreme Leader " he joked and she smiled.

"Good ... now go make the General feel stupid but don't destroy anything" and she moved out his way so he could find the General .

She stayed in his office for a moment then his comn began to ring . She looked at the name and it read "Skywalker "

"Master Luke ?"

"Rey ... how wonderful it is to hear your voice... what are you doing this is Ben's personal line"

"I'm in his office - what's up ?"

"Nothing ... just calling to make sure that you two haven't killed each other... yet"

"Not yet master Luke ... though it is only the first day of the week-"

"Very funny... I'll be messaging you later ... goodbye "

"Goodbye" he said and hung up.

Rey went to put the link down when she noticed some papers on his desk.
She knew she shouldn't be snooping and his was his office but he did just say this was her palace so ...

She found papers on the first order, news about Naboo, then she found something .

It was a drawing , and fresh from the smell of pencil shavings that lingered in the trash can near by

She smiled to herself and sighed , this was one of the most beautiful thing that she had ever seen.

Kylo paced back and forth . "Calm down would you ?!" Hux said from his seat with a cup of caf in his hands.

"Calm down would you ? Really ?!" Kylo yelled as he paced .

"She's probably just taking too long ! It's no big deal Kylo"

"These are some of the top investors of the First Order and if -"

Then Rey walked out and she saw the two men . Kylo had on a nice suit like Hux and Hux looked annoyed as ever but she wasn't sure if he was annoyed at Kylo or her.

She was wear mesh gown with a black tool and sliver sequences that went to her knees . "Do I look okay?" She asked.

"Fine let's go" Hux said and walked out of the room.

"You look marvelous Rey" Kylo said at her "truly"

"Thank you" she smiled at him "you look wonderful too" he offered her his arm and she put her arm around his and they began to walk out .

"It's just dinner ... a silly stupid dinner that we must do" he said.

"Hmm... how long will it take ?" She asked.

"About an hour or two " he said as they walked but the stairs.

"I'm not use to wearing dresses nor heels like this ... i hate it" she said.

"I understand ... my mother used to complain about dresses too ..." he smiled at her. You changed your hair" he said

"Yeah... I thought that your first order people might recognize a Resistance old Republic hair style" she said and he laughed.

"You look beautiful nonetheless" he kissed her forehead .

They took their seats , Kylo at the head of the table and Rey next to him.

"And whom is this ?" A gentlemen with grey hair and dark skin asked.

"This Princess Reyhanne from Kalevala... Duchess Satine's granddaughter... "

"It's nice to meet your Princess"

"Thank you sir" Rey said still kinda new to the idea that she was a princess .

"So gentlemen , the First Order is planning another attack on the Resistance ... they're holding a training session on Hoth and it's perfect timing" Kylo said .

"We plan on attacking during their dinning hours ... thus when they are at their weakest" Hux added.

"And General Organa ?" A man with blue skin asked.

"Won't see it coming" Kylo smiled .

"Have you heard of her princess ? Princess Leia Organa of Alderran ... she was a beauty and a Rebel supporter ... she became General, she should have married an Empire General "

"She's still a beauty" Rey said "she's doing well as General I've been told ..." she said "I think she was content with Han Solo... he did help bring down the Empire" she said taking a sip of her water .

"Shes a horrible General-" Hux scoffed.

"And you're an amazing one ?" Rey asked to Hux.

"Better then she" he laughed with the other men.

"Yes a general who's weapon was destroyed, who's storm troopers have failed countless missions and can't even shoot on target and who should go with a clone army but thinks to highly of himself ... sounds like a wonderful General to me" Rey said .

The men gave Hux a look.

"At least I'm not some helpless little princess ... who's family is dead" he laughed .

"At least I wasn't a bastard!" She snapped .

"Remember Reyhanne no one can come back for you" he said taking a sip of his wine.

Rey stood up and grabbed her glass and poured it over his head and then she slammed the cup down on his head , causing it to break and then strutted out of the room with one heeled foot making a clacking sound.
