Star Wars: The Future Is Female ✩ COMPLETED ✩ THE FORCE AWAKENS

two || the beginning (part two)

WILLOW DAMERON was pushed up against the contraption, her brother right next to her. Willow attempted to pull onto the shackles as Kylo Ren walked into the room, Willow and Poe giving each other a look of determination.

"I had no idea we have two of the best pilots in the Resistance on board," Kylo Ren began the interrogation, "Comfortable?"

"Not really." Willow and Poe responded back to Kylo with attitude. Sighing, Kylo shook his head in a pissed off manner.

"I'm impressed," Kylo began again, "No one has been able to get out of the both of you what you siblings have done with the map."

"Might wanna... rethink your technique." Willow cocked an eyebrow and smirked as Poe gave a slight chuckle in Willow's direction.

Kylo gained frustration as he walked closer to the two siblings, reaching out his hands to use the force. Willow and Poe's heads were held back as the two struggled to breathe. Their body began to shake as the force then got stronger and stronger, Kylo continuing his perfect interrogation.

"Where is it?" Kylo asked, anger in his voice as the two siblings continued to struggle to breathe and move. The force kept getting more stronger and stronger as Willow began to feel lightheaded immediately.

"The Resistance will not be intimidated by you." Poe talked back to Kylo, his breathes getting heavier and heavier. Tears of pain began to form in Willow's eyes as Kylo got even more carried away with the interrogation.

"Where... is it?"

The two siblings couldn't take it anymore. They both began to scream at the top of their lungs in pain and misery, tears suddenly falling down Willow's cheek as she kept screaming. Kylo suddenly exists the room, the door shutting closed behind him as the two siblings were able to breathe again.

"Are you okay?" Poe turned to face Willow, who was trying to regain her lung strength. Willow nodded, the tears still falling down her face, her nose and eyes red.

Rey and Ophelia stood in front of the Jakku outpost, a monstrous tall creature by the name of Unkar Plutt reviewing the portions that Rey had. BB-8 was in front of Rey, R2D2 next to Ophelia as the two young women watched Unkar diligently, awaiting a response.

"These five pieces are worth... let me see here... one half portion." Ophelia scoffed as she folded her arms across her chest, shaking her head.

"Last week they were half a portion each." Rey objected angrily. Unkar leaned over the counter, BB-8 then looking up at him curiously.

"What about the droid?"

"What about him?" Ophelia stepped forward, R2D2 rolling beside her as she stepped closer to Rey.

"I'll pay for him." Unkar demanded to Rey, Ophelia, and the two droids. Ophelia rolled her eyes again, her arms still folded across her chest.

"Sixty portions." Everyone around the outpost gasped out loud in shock. Ophelia and Rey shared a quick look before looking back at Unkar.

"Actually, the droid's not for sale." Ophelia titled her head to the side, a smile of envy piercing on her lips. Rey then told Ophelia that she was leaving with BB-8, so Ophelia and R2D2 then followed Rey and BB-8.

Back on the star destroyer, the cell door opens, revealing a storm trooper. Willow and Poe are still tied up, Willow getting a sense of fear as the stormtrooper walks over to Poe first.

"Ren wants the prisoners." The stormtroopers told a trooper guard that was standing right behind him. Poe gets unshackled first, setting his feet on the ground again as Willow then gets unshackled.

After the Dameron siblings were unshackled, the two of them were being escorted by a stormtrooper.

"Turn here." The stormtrooper demanded to Willow and Poe as they both turned, walking down a narrow passageway before being stopped.

"Listen carefully," The stormtrooper began, "You do exactly as I say, I can get you both out of here."

"If... what?" Willow and Poe asked the stormtrooper at the same time. The stormtrooper pulled off the helmet, revealing a man with dark skin and thin curls.

"This is an escape," The man continued, "I'm helping you escape. Can you fly a tie fighter?"

"You with the resistance?" Willow asked in confusion. Poe then looked at his sister, rolling his eyes at his sister's question.

"What?" The man asked in reply, "No no no! I'm breaking you guys out. Can any of you two fly a tie fighter?"

"I can fly anything, and so can my sister," Poe responded, "Why are you helping us?"

"Because it's the right thing to do." The man nodded his head. Willow and Poe looked at each other, smiling when they have the same thought.

"You need a pilot."

"I need a pilot."

The two siblings smile and laugh excitedly.

"We're gonna do this." Willow nodded her head. Poe nodded at his sister's remark, the same smile still on his face.

"...Yeah?" The man was confused when Willow said what she said. Suddenly, the three walked together, the man making it look like he's escorting the prisoners. A group of imperial officers then walk past the two of them as the man began to freak a bit.

"Okay, okay stay calm." The man demanded to the Dameron siblings. Willow and Poe gave each other another look, nodding.

"I am calm." Poe responded to the boy with an attitude. Willow chuckled, a smirk pressing up against her lips as the three of them continued towards the tie fighter.

"I'm talking to myself," The man continued walking with the siblings, "Not yet. Okay go, this way."

The three of them walked quickly towards the tie fighter. Willow leads her brother and then man as they then go up the stairs and into the tie fighter.

Poe and Willow run towards one of the control panels of the tie fighter, Poe sitting down as Willow gets on her knees behind the seat, grabbing onto the holders for safety.

The tie fighter's engine started up, lifting off the ground as Willow held on for dear life. Poe smiled brightly as he began to set up the controls.

"Willow, you good?" Poe shouted over his shoulder as Willow then peeked out from behind the chair. "Let me know if you need anything."

"I'm alright," Willow smiled a bit and nodded, "Let's do this."
