A week flew by and one day Kylo came into your room carrying a heavy bag. With a swift gesture, your locks shot open. You rubbed your wrists, but were glad to finally be out of that chair.

"What's that?" You pointed towards the bag that he'd set in the corner nearest to the door. He nodded, hinting that it would become clear later.

"Get ready to leave. Pack some things, but not too much. Just a few days." He said and took a seat in an armchair that appeared from out of nowhere. He started playing with his lightsaber and you remember what he'd said last week.

In a week's time we'll train with a lightsaber.

"Am I getting a lightsaber today?!" You could barely contain your excitement. Kylo had told you about so many things, the Force, the balance, the First Order... You wanted to help him restore the balance in the Force by helping the First Order win the war. You started to pack, but your mind was already exploring the idea of having your own weapon. I wish I could tell my friends back home about this. Suddenly you were paralysed with sadness. You hadn't thought of your friends ever since leaving your house. What would they be thinking? Probably that you died in that ocean. Body never found.

You felt a hand on your shoulder and when you turned around, you found it belonged to Kylo. It was the first time since leaving your planet that he'd actually been nice to you. "It's okay. Sometimes we have to leave the things we love for something better." He said, attempting to make you feel better. "In this case, it's the war. You're one of the most important people now. Although no one knows you. Yet."

Slowly you started to feel your body again and sat down on the floor. "Why?" Was all you asked and looked up to Kylo.

"Why what?" He asked and lowered himself to sit next to you. You saw a very small smile on his face. When he sat too, his face was back to being serious.

"I mean, why am I so important? How did the war start?" You knew it was between the Resistance and the First Order, but what both stood for was still unclear.

Kylo sighed. "That's... a long story. I'll tell you another time about the war. Why you're important is because of your powers. Not a lot of people have it, especially not in your strength."

You tilted your head, still not understanding fully.

"You're really powerful, Catherine." Kylo's voice lowered. "You could even... I mean, I guess you could..."

-"I could what?"

Kylo's eyes met yours and they locked. "You could kill Snoke." His voice was barely a whisper.

A shock wave went through your body. This was Snoke, his boss, the one he's been obeying the whole time. Your boss too, in a way.

"Why would I do that?" You asked, even more confused than you were before.

"You could take his place, with me perhaps, and we could rule over the First Order and eventually over the entire galaxy. Together." His eyes gleamed as he imagined the galaxy obeying his every order. You felt worried.

"I-" but before you could finish, or even start, your sentence, Kylo interrupted you.

"If you ever tell Snoke that I said that, I will have you tortured and murdered in the worst way your little brain could even think of."

There you are. You thought, as Kylo seemed to have returned to being his old self. "I won't, but you'll have to explain this to me once more. I can't understand why you'd kill him and have the power yourself. Aren't you here to keep the balance?"

Kylo rolled his eyes and stood up. "Get back to packing your bag, we have to leave soon if we want to get there in time."

You wanted to ask him more, but realised he wouldn't answer any question until you were packed and ready to leave, so you continued packing, not thinking about your friends again.

A/N 

Sorry for the terribly short chapter.. I've had a 9-day workweek so it's safe to say I haven't had enough time to write a 1000+ word chapter for tonight. I hope you'll still enjoy it. If you have any preferences as to where I should take the story, don't hesitate to tell me! I don't know if Cath will fight Snoke, Kylo or the Resistance... :)

Thanks for reading anyway! I love the support.
