• "I've Got Time." •

"That can't be right, the First Order would never do something like that." Amphitrite said as she tried to make sense of what Artemis had told her about their parents. Surely Kylo would have told her if such a thing had to be done. Surely he would have at least mentioned it to her. She trusted him, didn't he trust her? "Seriously, where have you been?" Artemis asked skeptically. "The first order is evil. Of course they would do something like that. All the first order has done since it was created was conquer, murder, and destroy. They're nothing but a bunch of murders who wish to bathe the galaxy in eternal darkness and fear." Amphitrite couldn't believe this. She thought the First Order established order, peace, and organization. Not to murder and destroy. Something had to be wrong here. "But enough about that." Artemis said, sending the tension from her little sister. "Come with me I want to show you something." Artemis said as she took Amphitrite's hand in hers and led her down the hallway of icy white walls. She stopped at a room, a bedroom that clearly hadn't been lived in for some time, and brought her sister inside. "The night everything happened I hid this in here so they wouldn't take it." Artemis began as she walked over to a framed painting of a mountain on the wall. She lifted the painting from the wall with ease and behind it there was a large open space carved into the ice wall. Artemis reached in and retrieved a beautiful white crown, made entirely of pure white pearls. "Artemis, that's beautiful." Amphitrite said as she looked at the crown, bewitched by its beauty. "It was our mother's." She told her sister. "She wore this as queen of the northern tribe and empress of Statera." "Woah..." Amphitrite said in awe of the headpiece. "I had always hoped to follow in her footsteps but now I fear that will never happen." Artemis sighed. A cool breeze ran in from the window and the girls noticed that it had started to snow. "I can't believe after all this time you've finally returned..." "I just wished I could have returned sooner to see mother and father." Artemis nodded sadly at her words. "I understand... you really don't have any memory of them?" She asked and Amphitrite nodded. "I don't remember anything from my youth." She replied. "Seriously, Amphitrite, where have you been?" Artemis asked as she looked at her sister with wondering eyes. "It's a long story." "I've got time."
   
"Seriously?" "Seriously." Amphitrite has just finished explaining almost everything to her sister, well that is except for the part about her leaving with Ben Solo- now Kylo Ren - and becoming part of the First Order. "I can't believe all this time my little sister was training to be a Jedi!" Artemis said with a small laugh. "When you were really an elemental the whole time... just like grandfather." "Our grandfather was an elemental?" Amphitrite asked and Artemis nodded. "Everyone thought he was the last. Poseidon, our grandfather, was the most powerful elemental the galaxy ever saw until he was murdered by the galactic empire for fear of his powers. But now, with you, why you're probably just as powerful if not more! I bet you could do some seriously amazing things with your powers!" "Oh- I don't know..." Amphitrite said rather sheepishly. She hadn't trained correctly with her abilities in a while. The snow fell heavier outside, a mixture of snow and ice tapped against the ice structure they were in. "I bet you could do some serious damage against the First Order. With your strengths we could really-" Artemis didn't even get to finished her sentence. Her body immediately fell limp to the floor, eyes closed and under a heavy sleep. Amphitrite was suddenly able to sense his presence behind her. "No..." she said as all her spirits immediately fell. A hand laced its fingers around her cloak and pulled her backwards, nearly chocking her. She looked up as she was pulled to see the masked face of none other then Kylo Ren.
