"You never fail to impress me by how naive you are, Ren."

Every fibre in your being wants to eradicate the smirk plastered on Hux's face. Wipe it off with the tip of your lightsaber. Punch him into oblivion.

How could he do this?

How can he be so heartless? Has he not a single strand of compassion?

How could he have been spying on you and Kylo and reporting back to Snoke all this time?

"If you think you're going to temper-tantrum your way out of this one, you're wrong."

"Please." Kylo shifts his stance into a defensive one. "You wouldn't even be standing there right now if I were having a tantrum," he deadpans, his lit lightsaber deadly silent as he holds it at an arm's length.

"Careful, Ren," Hux says. "I have an entire army of soldiers at my command, have you forgotten?"

Your heart is pounding in your ears; your adrenaline is spiking. The tension is so thick you could slash through it with your lightsaber; hatred is rolling off Hux in waves- Kylo's aura is livid, the air around him is hot.

Flaming red.

"You either move," he growls, "or I'll make you. Your decision."

"Oh, you're free to leave."

"What?"

Hux turns his attention to you, his eyes piercing through yours; you hadn't even realised you had spoken.

"Neither of you are held captive here. Supreme Leader does not want traitors aboard this ship."

Kylo tears his eyes off Hux for a second, and his eyes meet yours. You can see your own confusion mirrored in his eyes.

"Supreme Leader Snoke will find you though. Treachery simply cannot go unpunished."

You feel Kylo's hand firmly wrap around your waist, he protectively yanks you into him.

"I'll make sure he never finds us again."

Hux lets out a little laugh; the kind of despicable laugh someone does when they feel like they have the upper hand in a situation. 

"I'd get rid of the girl if I were you, if you wish to stay out of his way." The way he's looking at you is making you shake- both with fear and the intense hatred you feel for this man. It's raising the hairs at the back of your neck.

"What is that supposed to mean?" you croak, holding onto Kylo's arm. You can feel the muscles in his chest and stomach move as he breathes.

"Let's just say that you're quite.. Easily trackable." The smile on his face is one that etches itself into your mind- the stuff of nightmares.

You can feel Kylo's heart rate speed up even faster than it had already been beating; and somehow- perhaps out of fear that both your hearts would burst from beating so fast- you find yourself dragging him forward, letting the adrenaline carry you both out the room.

Hux doesn't protest, he simply stands aside. No further comments, no taunting, no declares of war.

Nothing.

It's suspicious.

But right now, there are bigger things to worry about.

"Let's leave, let's leave now," you utter quickly, as you and Kylo break out into a run in the hallway.
