The Tipping Point (Kylo Ren X Reader)

Debate

The explosion was small but powerful. The force from the blast sent Lenna flying. She landed head first on the ground and did not move from that position.

"Lenna!" You ran to her side. You grabbed her wrist and felt for a pulse. "No no no," you muttered. "Stay with me Lenna, please!"

Tears rolled down your face as you shook her gently, trying desperately to wake her. Two large hands pulled you away from her.

"Let me go," you screamed.

Kylo set you down and stepped towards Lenna. He knelt down, placing his hand on her head and closing his eyes. Suddenly, you saw Lenna's chest rise and fall in a deep breath. You sighed in relief as Kylo placed his arms under her still frail body and lifted her to his chest. He stood and you followed as he marched towards the outskirts of the city. The ruckus of yelling and grenades sounded behind you as you rushed towards the shuttle that had come into view. The lift lowered and Phasma waved to you in relief.

"Start the engines," you yelled.

She yelled for one of her troops to fulfill your order as you neared the ship. The engines roared to life as you stepped onto the shuttle. Kylo handed Lenna to Phasma as you closed the door to the ship and sat in the pilots seat. You pressed a button and the shuttle lifted off the ground. The shuttle rocked suddenly as something hard collided with it. Kylo stumbled into the copilot's seat. The lights flickered as the ship was attacked again.

"Fuck," you muttered as you pushed against the steering controls, sending the ship hurtling into the sky.

You pushed the lever to send the shuttle into hyperspeed but it would not budge.

"Dammit!"

You fiddled with the lever frantically but it would not move. Kylo placed his hand on top of yours, assisting in your desperate attempts to make the lever work. With your combined force it finally moved, shooting the shuttle into hyperspace. You shot out of your seat, head colliding with the edge of the control panel. Your vision went black for a few seconds as you crumpled to the floor.

"Ow," you whimpered.

Two stormtoopers rushed towards you as Kylo moved into your seat, taking control of the shuttle. The two men helped you up into a sitting position as you struggled to regain sight. Your head pounded violently and you rubbed your temple, gasping when you realized it was wet. You pulled your fingers off your head and examined them. They were covered in blood.

"I'm bleeding," you muttered woozily.

Your head polled and one of the stormtroopers rushed to catch your body before it hit the floor.

"You need to stay awake, Supreme Leader," one ordered.

You felt extremely tired. The pull to the peaceful darkness that sleep provided was intense.

"I'm just going to rest my eyes until we arrive, okay?"

The troopers did everything they could to keep you awake but as each minute passed, you slipped closer to a deep sleep. The back of your mind registered the shuttle's shaky landing. The two stormtroopers each took one of your arms, helping you stand. You placed your arms around their necks allowing them to support most of your weight as they led you off the hangar. Everything moved in slow motion as you struggled toward the medbay. The hallways moved in weird directions and you stumbled as you tried to regain your balance. You entered the medbay and remembered who you should really be worried about. You snapped out of your tired state as you searched for her.

"Lenna, where is Lenna?"

"She is being taken care of, Supreme Leader," one of the troopers responded. "You need to worry about yourself."
