Alone - Kylo Ren

Chapter One

Chapter Text

"Ah, my dear Leokadia, so we meet again," he grinned, as she woke up strapped into a chair.

"Take off the mask, Kylo."

"I go by Ren," he responded, as he took it off.

"And I go by Leo."

"So, what information do you have for us today?"

"The same as always," Leo responded, a scowl on her face, "the First Order is a huge pile of garbage, and the Rebellion's going to find Luke. Ooh, there was something else...what was it? Fuck you, that's what! I almost forgot." She grinned before grimacing. Her prosthetic leg had ended up in an awkward position when she fell on rocks before the Order caught her.

"I'm needed elsewhere," he suddenly said. "I'll return."

Leo shoved her head back into the slightly cushioned head of her restraints, trying desperately to escape from the chair. But, eventually, Kylo learned not to leave stormtroopers inside of the room, but he did leave some right outside the soundproof doors. Leo sighed.

It was going to be a long night.

Eventually, Leo fell asleep, despite how vastly uncomfortable she was, strapped into a chair with her arms and legs strapped wide apart. She couldn't move her hands or feet at all, and it was worse, considering the fact that she had cramped knuckles. There was no way to know what time it was when she awoke, but she assumed it was morning when she woke up. Ren was sitting in the corner, once she managed to crane her neck up, to see if everything was the same as when she fell asleep, but the only different thing was Kylo sitting in the corner.

"What now, skug?" she sighed, pushing her head into the slight cushion on the chair. "The same as always? It was only a day that I was missing, Ben, nothing is changed. And take off the mask, now."

A deep voice suddenly in her ear, Leo's heart started racing. "Ben is dead, Leokadia." Kylo's voice was cold and unforgiving. "You of all people should know that." The mask is off and on the ground.

"Stop calling me Leokadia, Kylo. Or should I go back to calling you Ben? I'm not even sure why I stopped calling you that."

He averted his eyes from hers. "I asked you nicely to stop mentioning it." His voice was low, soft yet steely.

"It's my fucking leg, Kylo, I can't just stop bringing that up!"

"You only use it for running away, Leokadia, so why should I feel bad? I could make you a vegetable, completely dependent on me, you know."

"Then why don't you?" Leo almost shouted. "Oh, because all you care about is information! You've avoided your dad for years, and you aspire to live up to a guy who ruined so many people's lives! What the hell is wrong with you?"

Ren was quiet for a few minutes as Leo slowly relaxed into her restraints. Then, without a warning, the cuffs around her wrists and ankles clicked open. She snapped up, rubbing her wrists and twisting her ankles. "What are you doing?" she asked softly.

"Just go," he muttered. As she slowly got up, Ren said louder, "Go. Before I change my mind."

Leo pushed her fingers through the thin wire of the back of her prosthetic, grabbing her compressed lightsaber hilt. She expanded it to its full size, then pushed the button, making her Barab lightsaber light up clearly.

"Knowing you, I'll see you within a week." Leo mumbles, not knowing if it's loud enough for Kylo to hear before sneaking out of the door. "Goodbye."

this is probably the shortest chapter so far, and they're already on my ao3, also under owydfa :--)
