Jedi in the Midst ~ X Reader

SIX

You slowly approached the dreaded lightsaber and picked it up. You wrapped both hands around it and steadied your breathing. You nodded your head at Kylo and ignited your weapon. He nodded back and flicked his lightsaber in a circle. You charged at him swinging your lightsaber down on his. He carelessly lifted his lightsaber at all your attempts as if this was nothing to him. You grew frustrated and decided to give him your all. Who cares if you kill him, he asked for it. You swung your lightsaber over your head and he blocked it as you expected. This time, while he was blocking you, you pulled his ankle with your foot sending him to the floor.  You pointed your lightsaber at his throat.

"You don't know me. You don't know what I could do to you." You hissed, holding your tears back. He turned off his lightsaber and waved a hand towards you, causing you to fly backwards. Your body landed against the floor with a roll. You got up as fast as you could, trying to steady your balance.

"You know how to use the force. You know lightsaber combat. You just refuse to acknowledge it... But why?" He stumbled to his feet and returned his lightsaber to his hip.

"You're wrong. I don't know what your talking about. I was trained with a lightsaber, but not with the force." You grabbed your lightsaber and hooked it on your waist.

"He didn't know. You had the force and he didn't know.. But that's impossible, if I could sense you there's no way he couldn't." He began to walk out of the room, waving his hand as an order for you to follow. You didn't know what was going on or where you were going, but your feet moved before you could even think twice about it. He guided you to the command center and led you to the general's office, locking the door behind you. You hesitantly took a seat and watched him pace back and forth.

"Uhm. Who didn't know?" Your voice was soft, afraid to interrupt his thoughts.

"Luke Skywalker." His pace remained.
"Unless." He stopped and leaned against Hux's desk, studying your eyes through his intimidating helmet.
"He knew your potential and the power you had. He was scared. He didn't want to give it to you. He was scared that you would end up like-" His sentence cut short.

"End up like what?" You leaned back to try and get some space between you.

"Like him." He mumbled slowly standing up.

"Who's-" He stopped your question by using the force to pin you against a wall. Your thighs were burning up as he walked in front of you. He slammed a fist next to your face.

"I- I'm sorry." You closed your eyes and looked away. You heard the sound of his helmet gasp as he removed it. His mask hit the ground creating an echo throughout the room. You opened your eyes and connected them with his. His hands clenched at his waist, but you were still pinned against the wall.

"This might hurt." He raised a hand to your temple and encouraged a sharp pain through your head. You felt your throat vibrating from your screams but the pain was so intolerable you couldn't hear yourself. Your ears ringing, eyes clenched shut, head pinned back. You felt powerless. Until, silence. Your screaming, the ringing in your ears, gone. You opened your eyes and couldn't believe where you were. It was the day your mother died. Rain was pouring down on you and her corpse. You turned your head to see your father staring at you through his blaster. You pulled out your lightsaber, ready to deflect his shots.

"It has to be this way. You don't know how dangerous you are. How dangerous she was." He spit through the rain dripping off his lips. You shook your head.

"No. You're afraid... Of what? Our abilities? We protected you. You were my father." You ignited your lightsaber. He quickly turned around and ran down the alleyway. You grunted and took off after him. The residents of Coruscant lingering against the metal walls watched you chase the murderer. You grinned when you saw him take a wrong turn down a dead end. Following close behind, you approached him and watched him scramble to find a way out.

"Game over... 'Pops'." You hissed at him. You lifted a hand and pinned him against the wall. He clawed at his throat gasping for air. You swung your lightsaber at his throat as if it were a dagger, decapitating him. All you could hear was the echo of his last scream. You put your lightsaber back on your belt and ran as far away as you can. To Ahch-To. In the blink of an eye your body shot up from your cot. You were in your hut on Endor. You took a deep breath and got out of your pile of blankets. You called your lightsaber to your hand  and juggled it around with your mind before you actually grasped it. You placed your lightsaber on the ground and decided to meditate. You sat down and took a deep breath, closing your eyes. Within seconds, you opened your eyes and everything around you was hovering, including yourself. You grinned and stared at the lightsaber in front of you. You swiped your finger in the air, causing it to spin around. You collected yourself and opened your legs, allowing you to stand up. Everything slowly returned to its spot and you grasped the lightsaber out of the air. You turned it on and began swinging it around your body. The cloth to your hut parted and Luke entered.

"I brought breakfast." He held up a wooden bowl filled with steamy soup. You smiled at him and turned off your lightsaber.
"I'll just leave it here." He put it on your makeshift desk.
"I see you've gotten more familiar with the force and your lightsaber." He gestured to your waist with his robotic arm.

"Yea, you know how passionate I am about fighting." You punched the air with a giggle. He smirked at you.

"That's just it. I'm afraid your passion will grow uncontainable and you'll end up like my previous student." He threw his hood down and you could see the concern shining in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Master. I won't end up like that rebellious fraud of a student." You laughed making your way to the soup. He grabbed your wrist before you could grab the bowl. You turned your head and stared at him with fear.

"I'm sorry." He waved hand in front of your face and you collapsed onto the dirt.

Your eyes shot open, tears streaming down your face, and your body fell to the floor. You gasped for air as you massaged your temple.

"What the fuck?" You hissed.

"Your memories. They're altered." He crouched down in front of you.
"He did teach you about the force and everything in between.. but he was scared at how powerful you'd become, so he altered everything." He stood back up and sat in General Hux's chair. Your blood began to boil and your heart was beating out of your chest. People were scared of you for the wrong reasons and you were ready to give them a right one. You jumped up to your feet and glared at Kylo.

"I'll kill them." You growled. You threw your hand to the door and it flew off the hinges. You saw Kylo's arm jerk up, but before he could stop you, you threw a hand towards him. He slammed into the wall and slid down it.

"And no one will get in my way." You could feel the fury burning in your eyes and your face was hot with rage. You stormed through the hallways, heading straight to the hangar. A squad of stormtroopers blocked your path with their blasters raised to you.

"Out of my way." You growled. 

"You're supposed to always be under the supervision of the General or Commander Ren. Return to your room or we'll shoot." A stormtrooper reported.

"Fine. Let's do this your way." You flicked two fingers upwards towards them and sent them flying into the walls around you. You laughed at their attempt and continued to the hangar. You jumped in a TIE fighter and put in the coordinates for Bracca. Someone was going to pay for the damage that they caused and it had to be the only person who knew everything. You crashed your TIE fighter into the ground and quickly jumped out as it caught on fire. You stormed into the headquarters and headed straight to Brendol's room. You used to the force to blow his door down. He jumped out of bed and scurried to the corner of his room.

"Y/N?" He tensed up.
