The Force That Binds Us (Reylo)

Chapter Five

Hux fixed his gaze on Kylo as he walked back into the main control room, appearing to be in deep thought. He watched the supreme leader in annoyance.

His leaders decision to pick the girl over the rest of the resistance continued to anger him more and more. Kylo was being foolish, thinking of only his… his…

Hux wasn't sure what to call Kylos connections with the girl. He didn't see Kylo as the type to be interested in anyone else. Especially not some Rebel scum… Then again, he was aware Kylo kept many secrets from him. He intended to find out those secrets, maybe even use them to his advantage.

No, definitely use them to his advantage…

Hux couldn't help but smile at his own thoughts. However it disappeared quickly when Kylo looked towards him. He didn't meet the supreme leaders gaze. “What shall we do with that girl?” He asked.

“You won't be going near her,” Kylo immediately said, looking out the window and into the space around them. They were heading towards a new planet they hadn't gone to before. A place where no one would search for them on.

Hux was annoyed by that. Why wouldn't he be allowed near a prisoner? “Then what will you be doing?” He asked instead, wanting to understand Kylos intentions. He had to have had a good reason for all this, but why was he so hesitant to share it all?

“She will turn-” That's all Kylo could get out before storm troopers quickly ran into the room, bringing both of the boys attention away from their conversation.

“The prisoner escaped,” They simply said, Kylo tensing up slightly. Hux couldn't help but feel delight at the news. It was a reason for him to at least see and interact with the girl Kylo was so interested in having here.

“How?” Kylo asked, clearly enraged by the news. Hux watched as the man took a few steps towards the stormtroopers, the clones shifting nervously under the angry leaders gaze. “She was gone when we got there… the guards were dead.”

Kylo, in a fit of rage, tossed the clones aside. Hux remained quiet, not wanting to be tossed like the two informers. “Hux, send out troops! Find that girl! I want her back to me, alive!” He ordered, Hux nodding in return. He left the room to go fulfill Kylos orders. He planned on finding her himself…

Kylo had made his way back down to Reys room, angry when it was indeed empty. He looked at the troops, examining how they were killed. He soon discovered they had been shot by blasters.

He then looked towards the keypad he had locked her into the room with. It was also shot and destroyed. Was it possible she had managed to mind trick his guards through the door? Impossible!!! What was the limit to this girls power?!

With great timing, he felt the force begin to connect them, allowing him to see her. She was face away from him, as if focused on something in front of her. She sighed as she also felt their minds bridge. “Where are you?” Kylo asked, Rey turning to look at him. “About to go home,” She answered, a familiar look in her eyes.

That strong look… It wasn't anger, but plenty confidence. She believed she knew exactly what she was doing and that she was about to beat him yet again. “You are home!” He argued, walking closer to her. “You belong here. Nowhere else!”

She shook her head. “No, Ben… neither of us-” She was cut short as a blast of light shot between the two, causing them both to jump in shock and break the connection between them. Upon seeing she was being shot at, Kylo radioed in for an update on the location.
