Chapter 2
-Kay, I really like this fic and I'm gonna keep it going, because Hux being supported by his crew is my life and it's like they're all in one big relationship and I'm just hnnn-
The crew took notice in the way Hux limped or winced when he sat down. They noticed his paranoia and anxiety every time he was on the bridge. Each day he complied with Ren more and more, and soon it wasn't General Hux standing on their bridge. It was a nervous man, jumping at every sound, making unsure orders while looking over his shoulder. Kylo Ren also started to hang around a lot. Ren became less aggressive with the ship but more aggressive towards Hux and any other crew mate who expressed concern for their General. Soon it wasn't an uncommon sight to see Kylo with his arm wrapped around Hux's waist while Hux kept his eyes on the floor, he wasn't their fierce General anymore. Just a shell. A thing.
Things just got worse and worse. Hux started showing up nervously and actually waiting for Kylo to come onto the bridge when he then walked into his arms silently. Hux never spoke anymore and the crew became distressed. Hux was gone and replaced with a beaten dog.
Hux watched his crew mates try and approach him and he tried to walk away from Kylo to talk to the officer that approached him but he was held still by the force and there was a growl from Kylo and he held his hand out at the officer who then stood there paralyzed with fear.
"Kylo! Please, please don't." Hux looked at Kylo with teary eyes. "Please, K-Kylo I'll do anything." Hux begged and begged Kylo to keep the officer alive. In the end the officer went away unharmed while Kylo pulled Hux back into his arms whether Hux wanted it or not.
Mitaka watched the entire scene unfold. Hux..his Hux. Was completely broken and trapped. They couldn't help him. Hell, they couldn't even get close to him! But then a mission came around for Kylo to take his leave for a whole month. Mitaka gathered officers and troopers and told them of his plan to free the General from his ties to Kylo.
Hux saw Kylo off on his mission and he was rewarded a soft kiss from Kylo, which was rare. Armitage wanted to fight his fate to eventually end up as Kylo's little wife but there's nothing he could do. But then when Kylo finally left the Lieutenant came up to Hux quickly.
The closer Mitaka got the more horrified he became, Hux's neck had bites everywhere and bruises snaked their way down Hux's rapidly slimming body. Either Kylo would Kill The General or his lack of eating and sleeping would.
"Sir?..Are you alright?" Came Mitaka's small worried voice.
Hux looked at Mitaka and then over his shoulder to see if he was allowed to talk to someone other than Kylo. But Kylo wasn't there which sent Hux into distress, he's been under Rens thumb for such a long time, he didn't know what to do.
"Sir?" The voice snapped The General out of trance and he looked back at Mitaka.
"I-..I'm not sure.." he whispered and looked around, he felt like Kylo should be there, standing next to him. Watching him.
"Come with me." Dopheld took Hux's hand, something he wouldn't dare to do if Hux was in his right state of mind. "We can help you."
"Kylo will be angry." Armitage whimpered and tried to pull back.
This would be harder than Mitaka thought. No matter what his General was loyal to his orders. Although Mitaka cares deeply for Hux, he would do whatever it takes, no matter how cruel, to save the man. "Lord Ren will be awful mad if you didn't. In fact he might just lock you away in isolation like last month." It pained him to say that but Hux was practically dragging Mitaka along in fear, and he didn't even know where he was going.
Not isolation. Not again, he would be good for Kylo and anyone else as long as that never happened again. It was dark and lonely. Time was lost and boredom drove him crazy. Isolation again would kill him undoubtedly.
Mitaka eventually gained step with the frantic General. "This way sir, Phasma can help too." He patted the gingers hand and looked up at him and quickly stopped. Seeing Hux crying was not surprising anymore but it made Mitaka feel dread, his General would never cry over anything but this wasn't his General anymore. This was Kylo's prized possession that would do whatever he was asked and preform whatever act Kylo wanted. And it pissed Mitaka the hell off.
Mitaka grabbed his handkerchief and wiped Hux's tears away. "You'll be okay. We can help you, you're family will always protect you." He whispered, knowing Hux wouldn't understand but such a soft tone would relax him.
After a few more minutes of walking they came to a half at conference room 3-10A this room was seen to be the one place Hux had felt safe in. Kylo forbid Hux to enter that room but some of his old defiance came up and allowed him to enter this room.
Only two of these kinds of rooms were present on the Finalizer. A force proof room. It broke Hux away from the spell Kylo had placed him under, it's where his mind didn't feel like broken shrapnel and where he felt like he had power. Kylo couldn't use the force to pin him down here.
The thought of being pinned down made Hux's gut twist in anxiety. "Lieutenant?" He asked softly and looked at him, biting his lip.
"Yes..General?" Mitaka knew Hux felt that there might be an end to his slavery under Kylo's rule.
"Why are you helping me?..If Kylo finds out you will be destroyed."
Mitaka sighed in annoyance, Hux always had such a way with words. "That's what friends are for, General." Normal, General Hux would be appalled to have a friend but this Hux seemed grateful.
The two entered the room and everyone fell deathly silent as Mitaka led Hux to sit down. High officers and other members of the crew who regarded Hux highly sat there contemplating on what to do with Hux. The scrutiny of their gazes made Hux look down, he was taught many lessons by Kylo and one of them was if he looked into the eyes of another he would be slapped. The memories of those horrible lessons made him flinch. Kylo was like his abusive father. Rarely satisfied and pissed if he did anything wrong.
"General, it has come to our attention that you are in great distress." A blonde female officer stood up and looked at him with the intensity of a thousand suns.
"I'm sorry.." came Hux's immediate reply.
'General, be good. Do as they want.' Came a voice in his head. "Shut up.." he mumbled.
"Armitage." Hux's head snapped up and he looked at another blonde female who stood in her chrome Storm trooper armor and came around to look at Hux in the eyes. "Kylo is no longer-no, look at me Hux- Kylo is no longer here and in his absence we shall free you from him, from Snoke, from everyone." Even though she spoke greatly she also spoke slowly and softly. As if you would to a child.
Hux nodded and shifted slightly. "So...Kylo won't hurt me anymore?" He asked and a few of the officers felt a wave of affection crash over them. Their General now was so hurt and treated so horribly, they were all glad to help.
"Kylo will be slain and you will be safe forever, we will help you to be as you once were." Phasma said softly and ran her fingers through Hux's hair.
"Oh..Good...I don't want to go into isolation again.."
