"Ah, Ms. Roman, a pleasure to see such an exquisite face here. thank you for coming to the 1st Order's Coronation Ball and Night of Excellence," To my left approached the General of the 1st Order, Mr. Artimage Hux. "The pleasure is mine, I'm glad i was invited this time as a respected leader and not just a keychain that my master had in tow," I turned to him, smiling as he looked down to my face. Even with heels, Hux still towered above me. "Invited? yes. Respected leader? I don't think so but if that's what you call your collective union of rejects, then i guess so," he sipped at his golden drink. "I see that the former apprentice took my advice to overthrow his Master- so in a sense, this night was all because of me," I challenged the ginger but he just laughed lightly, drawing a few eyes. "It's hilarious of how wrong you are, Ren did not kill Snoke, your legion of force sensitives, who were all slaughtered by Ren himself after the fact, caused this night. not you getting into the mind of The new supreme leader," Hux scoffed and moved away to join another group. i let out a huff and finished the glass of Champagne before i to mingle among the special guest area. Everyone here dressed to the hilt to show their wealth and status but i was here on another occasion. Even if i wasn't here for the supposed evening i still came dressed for it. I was adorned with a long light pink, almost off-white, ball down that had lace crawling to the base of my neck, under my breast and delicately ending down my shoulders. My back was open from the lace around my neck until the train began on my hips. Towards the end of the train the dress was spattered with red, which symbolized the blood that my fellow force sensitive friends were murdered in. I wasn't angry, not even revengeful, of Kylo Ren- instead i understood him. It was a command from his former master and he had to obey or die. I had the same scenario with my old master but instead of murder- i was forbidden of living. Obey or die- no punishment but now that no one ruled over us, maybe i could speak with him about a few propositions. But how could i possibly get him a moment away from the coronation? A dance? A tease? Oh no, we were beyond that. I was the one Kylo couldn't kill and i was going to rub it in under it got under his skin. For a few months after our encounter, i often got glimpses of his perspective and in return i believe he saw glimpses of mine but no further communication was made. It faded about 2 weeks ago, a day or so before i got invited to the event.

I was bored after the coronation, sitting at a faraway table, swirling the almost empty glass pitifully. Admittedly, it was beautiful. I didn't think Kylo Ren was one for lavishes but tonight was a surprise. As i swirled my drink a soft image emerged from my consciousness- it was me but from a far away perspective- Kylo's point of view. I turned to glance over my left shoulder and saw the tall, brooding Supreme Leader locking his eyes on my person- i returned to my drink but a dinner menu was soon passed to me. I debated actually eating here, the 1st order had been know for massively effective 'food born illnesses' from their dinner parties. I gave the menu back to the waiter. "You have some audacity to show up here," came the sleek voice of Ren from behind me. "Oh, i do?" I stood up and bowed my head slightly but not looking away from his face as i did so. "I was invited by the way, intentionally or unintentionally- the decision is yours until the night ends, then i slip out of your grasp..." i went to walk past him but i paused. "The only one that got away will get away again..." I whispered and i could feel the anger swirling in him. I walked on, swaying my hips as i grabbed another glass of Champagne.

The Event was over and mostly everyone stumbled to their Temporary rooms aboard Supremacy or left via shuttle. I soberly headed to my room which had been assigned the farthest away from the main event as possible, courtesy of my union of rejects. I had set this all up, to be walking down this hallway alone, the only sound was the natural hum of the ship and my heels clicking along the shiny black floor. I want sure when or where they would hide but i at least knew he had someone watching. When the barely audible footsteps behind me crept closer until i was stopped by the cold barrel of a blaster. It was a bit disrespectful that only 2 troopers were able to disarm and disable me but i wasn't ready to make an argument that they needed at least 7. They pushed me away from my room and into unmarked sections. The throne room? We went in no elevator, where were we going? The cuffs on my wrist were uncomfortably tight but soon enough the 2 troopers delivered me into a dimly lit room before they parted. Once again i could see myself from another point of view but it was clouded by something- tears? No. Anger. He came from behind me, the light sensing his movement and brightened. They faced me with a bloodthirsty Kylo Ren but i let him shove me to the wall, wrap his hand around my throat and snarl as i turned blue under his hold. "S-stop–i wa-want to a-a-actually ta-ta-talk" i squeaked out between short gasps of breath, this made him squeeze harder, eyes lusting over my drastic color change. "I-i teas-s-sed you- ACK-!" My heel tried to find his foot but to no avail. "T-to ge-e-et you a-a-a-lone!" I shouted, my eyes burning but his grasp released and i was no longer pinned to the wall. I glared at him as i coughed through ragged gasps. "Do you know how long i have waited to see you under my mercy? To kill you? And you come to talk," Kylo spat. "What do you expect me to do? Come with raging guns and hellfire? I don't want war with you,"I explained as i regained my breath but no doubt i would have his handprint bruised into my neck. "You don't? Then what do you want? Talking cant be the only bit of it" He snapped and i was taken back. What was i here for? To purpose a possible alliance with the 1st order, yes. But he had clearly indicated something else here...was he hiding something? "I'm not the one with several different motives, you were the one who was staring at me all night," i said hastily, waiting for a reaction but all i got was the red tint of his cheeks intensifying. "I want an alliance with the 1st order. What do you want? To fuck me?" I teased with a laugh but i soon realized he wasn't laughing. Instead Kylo's fist were balled painfully tight at his side as he looked me over with intensity. "Oh" now i actually felt a stab of fear in my stomach. "Even if you are just a nuisance, a dove like you shouldn't speak with such vulgarity," he took a careful step forward seeing if i would move but I held my ground. "You dare to tell me how to speak?" i snapped, nostrils flared but still defenseless as the cuffs around my wrist seemed to get heavier. "Fuck you," i added with a snarl but just as i was about to say something else the cuffs unlocked, falling to the floor. "Go," Kylo said in a strained voice but i stood there confused. "GO! I'M LETTING YOU GO. GET ON A TRANSPORT AND GO!" He shouted angrily and i hurried from what i assumed where his quarters.
