The traveler a Star Wars fanfic

Chapter 5

My body was numb. I couldn't feel anything. The only thing I knew was that I was cold extremely cold. I began to open my eyes to only be presented with blurry darkness. A few seconds passed and my eyes adjusted. The room was still dark, but I could see a little.

The room was small, with a table-like thing to my right that had flashing lights going off and blinking like crazy. I looked down to see that I was strapped down to what appeared to be an upright table. I tried to wiggle my way out of the metal straps around my wrists, but they wouldn't budge. Where's the butter when you need it?

"Sleeping Beauty's finally awake," I heard a deep mechanic voice come from behind me, and in a strange way the voice almost sounded... familiar?
I was able to put a face to the voice from behind me - or should I say the mask. The stranger stood tall in front of me: He wore all black, but what stood out to me the most was the hideous mask on his face. I think it was supposed to intimidate me, but instead I couldn't help laughing.

"Why are you laughing?" the man in the mask asked as I continued to uncontrollably laugh.

"I'm sorry, it's just that your mask makes you look like you're a kid running around asking for candy on Halloween," I said, bringing my laughter to a small giggle. My giggle quickly came to a halt when a burning red flash appeared at my neck.

"Are you going to continue with your laughter, or can we move on to the reason you're here?" he said, standing closer than before with his red lightsaber still at my neck.

"That might be a problem, considering I've seen a lightsaber before and yours is sadly deformed, so I can't promise I won't start laughing again."

"It's not deformed," the man said angrily.

"I'm sorry I have to tell you this, son, but I'm afraid you need glasses if you can't see that you're lightsaber looks like it was built by a 5-year-old." I said with sarcasm ringing through my voice.
After the words left my lips the deformed lightsaber at my neck was now destroying the room around me.
It made sense why the lightsaber looked like it was made by a five-year-old because the man in front of me was throwing a tantrum not unlike one. After the stranger in the mask was done with throwing a fit, he came closer to where I was strapped down.

"Do you not understand that I could kill you any moment now if you don't answer my question and do as I say?"

"I'm not too worried considering the fact that if you wanted me dead you would have already done so. Apparently you need me in some way, therefore you're not going to kill me just yet."

"I didn't remember you being so annoying, Princess," he said under his breath. Princess? Did he just call me Princess? The only person that called me Princess was-

"Ben?" I saw the man across the room from me tense when I said that name.

"That man no longer exists. My name is Kylo Ren." His hands clenched into fists.

I couldn't believe it. Could it actually be Ben?

"Ben?"

"Don't call me that!" Kylo yelled.

"Ok, Kylo, what am I doing here?" I said becomeing surious.

"Amelia, I'm going to give you two options: one, join the First Order and do what I say. Two - be killed."

"I'd rather die than join the Dark Side," I spat. Kylo let out a small chuckle and came closer; Now we were face to face.

"I thought you might say that. That's why I'm going to give you the night to think about it, but you'll have to give me your answer in the morning - and Princess, don't think I won't kill you if I must." I felt myself tense at his words. I knew that Ben had killed everyone that night I last saw him, but now I knew he truly was a monster.

Kylo left the room, slamming the door behind him, leaving me in my dark room.

"Drama queen," I said out loud to myself. There was no way I was joining the Dark Side, but I not going to let that idiot kill me so I guess I'll just have to escape.

"You can't leave, this is why you're here: I'm giving you a second chance." the necklace pronounced to me in my head.

"So I join the First Order? Are you crazy?"

"You failed him once. Don't fail him again. You can still save him."

"Fine. I'll stay. But I'm not actually going to join the Dark Side. I'll just go undercover." 

This had better work.

********************

Morning came quick as I worked out a crazy plan of how to join the First Order without actually joining it. I waited for Kylo to walk through the door but the waiting stopped as he soon walked into the room.

"Have you made a desinsion?" Kylo asked, his voice flat.

" I will join your side," I said a little too fast.

"I wasn't expecting you to make a desision right away."

"Well I did, so get me out of theses restraints."

Kylo waved his hand in the air and the metal straps that held me down were undone. Praise and glory, he's falling for it.

"Follow me," Kylo said, walking out of the room. I quickly followed behind. We walked for a while in silence, which was killing me so, you know, I had to say something.

"So.... I can see you still have a thing for wearing dresses."

"It's a robe, " he said, continuing without making a change in his step.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with crossdressers."
Kylo stopped walking and turned to me, stopping me, and getting all up in my personal bubble.

"I'm not a crossdresser, I'm wearing a robe," he spat, turning around beginning to walk again.

"It's a dress," I said, just loud enough for him to hear me. He stopped again, but unlike last time we stood in front of a door. Kylo typed in some kind of code that made the door slide open and he walked in with me following behind.

The room was small, like the room I had been staying in previously. There was a queen size bed in the center of the room with a bedside table on the left that had a lamp sitting on it.
To the right of the room there were two doors. I walked over to them to find one to be a closet and the other to a bathroom.

"This is your room. You will be spending the rest of your day here. I will have someone bring you something to eat later today. You'll need your strength for tomorrow."

"What's tomorrow?" I asked.

"Your training starts in the morning," he answered curtly.

"Training?"

"Your Force training." he said.

Force training?! I don't have the Force!! What is he talking about?!

"Force training? The Force inside me isn't strong enough for me to use." I said, confused.

"I know, but I believe that with enough training you will be able to become strong in the ways of the Force," he announced, sounding desperate. Almost like he didn't believe what he was saying.

"No one but you and I have to know that you can't use the force yet," Kylo said, still with that stupid mask on making him sound like a robot.

"Ben, I mean Kylo, I want the truth. What's going on?" Kylo didn't answer me and began walking toward the door. He stopped before completely exiting.

"Princess, get some rest. You'll need it." With that said, he left me alone in my new room.

Through the past seven years I have done some crazy things, but this is one of the craziest. But, hey, where's the fun in living on the safe side?
