"General Hux," He barked. "Follow me. Let's go meet our new guests."

For the second time that day, Riel awoke, but this time to a light being shone directly in her eye that was quickly shut off. As her eyes adjusted, she could make out two people, and what looked like some sort of robot. It looked like something straight from the pits of hell and it scared the living daylights out of her. The first one said something to the robot and it left the room, much to Riel's relief.
She attempted to use her hands to push herself up but found that they were tied together with some sort of restraints. With all of her strength, she tried to wriggle them free, but it was no use. Her hands were restrained and there was nothing she could do to break them free.
From the two that were still there, she heard them speaking in hushed tones. She strained her ears to try and listen in on what they were saying. The words prisoner, ship, and unconscious were thrown around quite a bit.
She studied the two figures. The first man was sporting a charcoal gray uniform which gave off a sense of authority. He must have been a high ranking soldier. Around his torso was a thick black belt with a shimmering buckle that reflected the lights of the room.
The second was wearing pitch-black robes that felt like a black hole, sucking in all of the light and hope that had ever existed. On their head was the terrifying helmet that shook Riel to her core. The mask kept her from seeing the person's eyes, but she didn't need to look into them to know that they had seen more death and destruction than she could ever imagine. Riel could feel her whole body tremor as she continued to look at the helmet. In the very depths of her soul, she sensed an overwhelming amount of darkness coming from them and she felt as if she were choking on it. She tore her eyes away and looked up at the ceiling.
"Who are you?" The second one asked, the authority clear in his voice.
Riel didn't answer.
"I am General Hux, an officer of the First Order. Now that I've introduced myself, you must do the same."
She said nothing.
"Well then, if you refuse to talk, then we'll force you." He drawled.
He nodded at the third and they stepped forward.
From underneath the mask, Riel could feel the man's eyes boring into her, but she didn't look away from the ceiling. She couldn't look at that mask again.
"You will tell us your name and your purpose for being here." Came a mechanical voice. It was deep and it reverberated throughout the room.
As soon as they spoke, Riel felt as if a large tidal wave had crashed on her. She could feel herself wanting to speak, but she resisted it. It took everything she had to keep her mouth closed shut and to not answer them.
