Amar had been mentally and physically drained from the events that had occurred, it was too much pain for any one person. Amar carried the weight and gravity of the events all by herself, she no longer shared it with Ben, now Kylo Ren.
Shortly after Kylo Ren had risen and taken claim to the Master of the Knights of Ren, Amar must have passed out or was possibly knocked out. Amar did not know which was the case, either way, Amar was no longer in the throne room. Everywhere she looked she saw white blinding lights and could hear slight beeping from a heart rate monitor. Amar's eyes started to adjust and she found herself in a bed, in what seemed like a medical wing. A medical technician was by her side and was sterilizing a part of her arm. Amar immediately tugged her arm back to prevent whatever was about to happen, but the technician placed a calm hand on her and reassured her.
"Please, don't move. This won't hurt you or your babies, I promise." The technician leaned back to grab what seemed like a giant needle. The tech looked back at Amar to make sure she was ready.
"Please tell me what that is, I won't resist, I just want to know what is going inside my body." Amar pleaded with the tech.
"It's a tracker, Supreme Leader Snoke asked us to place a tracker inside of you." The tech continued on to inject Amar with the small tracker device.
"It's so we can make sure you stay put and we will always know where to find you." General Hux said walking into the medical room. Hux came over and stood by Amar, he had a grin on his face.
"If you shall try to escape, we will know, but it is also a good insurance to have his younglings at our grasps, if anything should go sour." Hux patted her shoulder to reassure her, but it was nothing but a cold touch.
Amar felt dead inside, not only had she lost almost everything she had lived for, she was going to be a prisoner to the First Order for the rest of her life. Hux turned to leave, but Amar needed to know one thing.
"Where am I to live from here? Please don't say Hoth. I hate the cold weather and that is nowhere to raise children." Amar sat straighter to come across as more assertive.
Hux turned around to face Amar again and smiled at her in a smug way and winked at her. As Hux exited the medical room he called back to her.
"Don't worry, it's not Hoth."
Amar sat back and relaxed even just a little. Hopefully, it wasn't a place full of snow. Amar knew she was naturally from a warmer climate of a planet, she needed some sun.
Some time had passed and a few Stormtroopers came into the wing to advance Amar to the next step, which was escorting her to her transport for transfer to her new living arrangement. A young woman Captain came up to her with a bag.
"Here is some clothes to change into for your voyage. Hurry and change so we can continue on."
Amar quickly grabbed the bag from the Captain, something about her tone made Amar not want to upset her. Amar rushed off behind a changing screen and without delay changed into her brown pants that sat loose enough for her expanding stomach and a light tan tunic that had a ribbon tied right below her chest. Amar came back out around the screen and nodded to the Stormtroopers to lead her on.
The walk through the starship was filled with anguish, but Amar knew she needed to stay strong for herself and for her babies. As they were approaching the hanger, she realized her last image of Ben was going to be his hard face as Kylo Ren.
Amar kept her head down as they reached the final doors to the hanger, they entered through and it was vast on the inside. There were ships all over, with squads of Stormtroopers filling the empty spaces. She saw the shuttle they were headed to, but right off to the side of it was a tall black shuttle that had wings folded up. It was massive in comparison to the other fighter ships that surrounded them. Amar drew closer and she realized that the Knights of Ren were approaching the shuttle. Her heart dropped from her chest, she did not anticipate seeing him again after the throne room, but there he stood, helmet and all at the bottom of what was presumably now his shuttle. He seemed to be giving orders to his Knights and gave no inclination that he could feel Amar through the force.
Amar was almost at the shuttle, but she knew this was most likely going to be her only chance to try and reach out again, without Snoke interfering. As Amar continued to walk behind the troopers, she closed her eyes and focused on his signature. She reached out with the force.
Ben?
Ben?
No answer. He didn't even move his head in her direction. She felt defeated, but that was not going to stop her from trying one more time.
Kylo Ren?
His head snapped to her immediately that time. All she could see was a his helmet shining off the bright lights from above. Amar did not care that she couldn't see his face, it would have made it that much harder. Amar was satisfied with the fact, Ben had responded. Even if he responded to Kylo Ren, that meant she still could connect to him, even if he couldn't or had zero idea who she even was.
Amar boarded the shuttle with a final glance at Kylo Ren who watched her board and exit his new life.
Amar sat down in between two troopers as instructed, the shuttle quickly was off to the destination.
—————
Amar must have dozed off because the next thing she felt was the landing gear of the shuttle hitting the surface of the planet they had reached. The troopers on either side of her grabbed each one of her arms to escort her, but the Captain hailed them to release her.
"She is on her own now. Once you are off this shuttle, you will have to learn how to live here like a local or die trying." The Captain motioned for her to take a bag and a few provisions they had assembled together for her.
Amar nodded to them and walked down the ramp, what she saw next was wet jungle and air so thick with humidity, you felt like you could be swimming. They had landed away from whatever civilization was in the distance, in order to not gain any unwelcome attention. Amar would have to walk through the jungle to get there, she looked up to the sky to see the sun just rising. At least she knew she had the day to venture to the city and get there before dark, well at least she hoped.
As she plopped on the surface of the planet, the shuttle immediately pulled the ramp up and was readying for take off. They wasted no time to get out of there, strictly following orders. Amar continued into the jungle, the greenery was very full and had vines coming down from the massive trees that covered the sky once inside the jungle. Amar at least could sense there was no threat that lived within the jungle, she used the force to reach out.
Amar walked for a what seemed like an hour and finally she heard a bit of civilization noise hitting her ears. She knew she was close and she was relieved, ever since she started showing, her stamina weakened. The babies were definitely taking a toll on her more day by day. She needed to find a place to stay and find work or at least something suitable to help raise them. Her feet eventually hit stone and she looked up to find rock structures everywhere covered with slight moss in the cracks. The city was bustling, there were all creatures you could imagine in front of her. She knew instantly what city this was, Black Spire Outpost. The First Order had really placed her the farthest from Ben they possibly could without killing her. She was on one of the last planets before wild space. Amar looked around and came to the conclusion that Batuu was now her home planet and was to be her babies to come as well.
