    So there I sat, in that small, grey cell staring at the wall, making up my escape plan. All my plans would lead me to my death. That's great. So now what.
    The cell door opened, interrupting my thoughts, revealing Hux with a few stormtroopers. "What do you want?" I asked him irritated.
"I 'm here to take you to your room that you will be staying in." he said to me. The three troopers came into my cell and grabbed me. I rolled my eyes and they led me through the halls of Starkiller Base.
"So is anyone going to tell me where the real Seb and Sherlock are?" I asked but they all stayed silent. "HELLO?" Silence. "HUX!"
"Will you please shut up already?!" Hux finally yelled.
"Geez. Someone's annoyed." I said and finally stayed quiet. We continued walking until we stopped at another door. "So is this an actual room now or another boring ass cell?"
"It's a room. I wanted to keep you down there but Kylo insisted that we should treat you better than the rest of the prisoners." he said with a serious expression. "All I ask of you is to not try and escape, or else there would be consequences. It's not like I wouldn't enjoy seeing you being tortured but I'm working on my fake side."
"It's working." I said bluntly and he and the troopers left my room. Stupid Hux. Try not to escape. In his dreams. The problem is, how? I paced around the room trying to come up with a way that I could leave this place. I looked around the room to notice that it seemed like it was used to store old things that may have been from the First Order's old base. Being the nosy person I am, I started to look in some of the boxes that were laying around. One box in particular caught my eye, it looked as if it was an old chest, perhaps to carry something important. It was only about two feet long and about a foot wide. I decided to open it revealing a hilt of a lightsaber. "Holy sh-" The door of my room opened revealing Kylo and I grabbed the lightsaber and ignited it. The blade was white, surprising me.
"Where did you get that?" Kylo asked. 
"Umm, I just found it in a chest. Why is the blade white?"
"Nevermind that. Just give it to me." He said and started walking towards me but I pointed it at him.
"No. Stay where you are. You lied to me. That wasn't my real friends. I thought you were the one I could sort of trust. I guess I thought wrong." I said feeling betrayed. "Now are you going to tell me where Seb and Sherlock are and how we can get out of here? Or do I have to fight you?"
"I'm pretty sure you'll lost that battle."
"I'll just come back anyways. Now where are they?!"
"I don't know! Hux has been hiding information from me this whole time! I didn't know that they weren't your real friends! So I didn't lie to you!"
"How can he be hiding things from you?! You read minds for goodness sake!"
"His mind barrier has grown a lot stronger and sometimes I can't read his thoughts."
"How is that even possible?"
"I'm not sure, but I'll help you so put down the lightsaber." He said and I still noticed that I was pointing it at him.
I switched it off and hooked in onto my pants. He opened back the door and led me out into the hallway.
We went off to our left and kept walking in silence until I spoke up, "So... do you have any ideas on where they are?"
"No."
"Then what are we doing then?"
"Trying to get you off of this base."
"What why? No, we have to find Seb and Sherlock!"
"No we can't risk it right now. You need to get out of here before Hux finds out that you're gone!" he said and stopped walking.
"I can't leave them. No, no, no. You are not going to make me leave here without those two with me." I said and then we both heard yelling and heavy footsteps coming from the other side of the hall.  I looked up at Kylo, he took my hand, and we started running in the opposite direction of the troopers coming straight towards us. "I'm not leaving them here! If I have to stay then I will but not them!" I said and yanked my hand out of his.
"We don't know what Hux wants to do with you. You'll probably end up dead." he said and pulled me into a room that we were passing by.
"Why do you care about me all of a sudden? Why am I so important to you?" I asked and he took off his helmet.
"You wouldn't remember. It happened in one of your past lives. I took you in as my apprentice and that light saber was yours." He said while pointing to the saber on my belt. "Hux and I started to see how you pulled more to the Light and Hux wanted to get rid of you. He brought his point up to Supreme Leader Snoke. Supreme Leader told me that I had to kill you."
"And?"
"And what? What do you think I did?"
"Kill me." I said and he looked down. "Kylo, I get it. And I don't care what you did in the past. Just help me now. Where are Sherlock and Sebastian?"
"No. I can't risk your life. If I find them I'll send them after but you need to leave. There's no clue on what Hux and Moriarty are planning."
"I'll risk my life if that means saving my friends. If I leave, then they'll be punished for it. I don't need you getting in trouble for helping me either. But thank you for your efforts." I said and walked out of the room. I looked both ways and saw the back of Hux walking the other way. "Hux!" I yelled at him and he turned around and signaled the his squadron to come and get me. "Stay where you are!" They did as they were told. "Hux, I've come to bargain. Let my real friends go and I'll stay. You have my word. I won't try to escape, just let them go."
He thought about it for awhile and then said, "You're really going to sacrifice yourself for your friends? That's a bold move to take. But I'm afraid to tell you that your friends aren't here."
"What?"
"You heard me. They are not here. I don't know where your real friends are."
"So did you make all the effort to persuade me that they are?"
"I figured that you would stay longer and be more willing to help if I told you that your friends were actually here."
"You lying son of a b**ch!" I yelled and ignited my lightsaber. "I'll give you choice. Get the hell out of my way or die."
"You can't kill me Myra. There's ten of us and one of you, and you can't even use a lightsaber."
"Try me." I said smirking and charged at them.
