Kylo's pov (surprise!)

My eyes open wide in a panic.

I take in my surroundings. The ground is grey with dirt; rock formations rise from various places around me. The sky is dark as night, moist with fog.

But I feel as if it isn't night, or day, even. Any sense of time has escaped me; I seek its comfort.

I hear a scream, loud and sudden.

My heart stops beating in my chest and the color drains from my face.

It's her.

My feet are running before I tell them to. I turn corners and dive deeper into the ultimate nothing-ness, desperate to find her and brutally murder the source of her pain.

I skid to a stop, dirt flying up in a cloud towards the opposite direction.

She's curled against a rock, tears streaming down her face, but she doesn't see me. I crouch down, trying desperately to comfort her. I reach out to touch her; just as my fingers were meant to meet her shoulder, she disappears, vanishes, another scream echoing in my ears.

I'm running again.

I can't find her.

It could've been minutes or hours or days since I began looking for her again, but I can no longer tell the difference.

Finally, I see a light.

It's dim, reigning from the heavens. It is casted upon her.

Her wet cheeks shine in the light and I've never seen her so beautiful.

She's holding something.

It's tucked into her arms carefully; two little things completely covered by a blanket of some sort. It's soft and green, a tuft of something black at the top. It's the perfect size for her hold, fitting in her arms like a missing puzzle piece, but I can't put my finger on what it is.

My stomach flutters, and I feel a strange want to hold it in my own arms.

I approach her, as if in a trance. Her gorgeous eyes seem to flit anywhere but me. Why doesn't she see me?

"Mali?" I ask, as soon as I'm close enough hat she can hear my whisper.

She sees me now, but her eyes grow as huge as saucers, full of terror.

"What's wrong?" My lip quivers as I continue to come closer to her. She begins to back away, shaking her head softly.

"Don't hurt me." She says quietly. I frown.

"I l-love you Mali, I would never hurt you." I reason, but she hears none of it. Her eyes no longer linger on mine, but behind me.

I turn to see what's captured her attention. My jaw drops in utter surprise.

I realize exactly where I'm at with a jolt.

Wasn't this place blown up with the rest of the StarKiller?

Snoke's figure dims out the only light; rain pours from the sky. Across his face is a sinister grin.

Suddenly, he's no longer a hologram.

I'm thrown back with a great force that knocks the wind out of me; I slam head on into a wall of rock. I clench my teeth, pained tears welling up in my eyes.

I can't see well; the fog blurs my vision immensely.

But, I can see out of my once blind eye again.

Snoke's figure is small; he reminds me of my Uncle's Master. His fingernails are like claws and his teeth end in a point.

He is anything but human.

He creeps behind Mali, who is distracted by the bundle.

When he takes his lightsaber from his waist, I cry out at Mali, begging her to run and save herself.

It's only at the last second that she finally hears me, facing me slowly in question.

I jump to my feet to attack my Master, to save her and her possession. When I'm close enough for him to notice my presence, I reach down to grab the hilt of my own saber.

It isn't there.

I desperately pat at and dig in each pocket of my cloak, my heart sinking with every one that turns up empty.

Snoke laughs.

"You choose to betray me for a silly girl? You're nothing but a foolish boy with no self control! You'll never meet the strength of your grandfather!" He spits, baring his pointy teeth.

I stumble back, his words hurting almost as bad as if he had struck me with his humming, red saber.

"I trusted you!" I shout. I feel the sudden, shooting pain in my waist as if the wound Rey inflicted upon me had opened again. My face throbs and I feel the burning again, my right eye's vision suddenly going black.

Snoke disappears in the fog, leaving me alone on the dirt to suffer.

Mali drops to her knees, clutching her bundle. She places a hand on my arm.

She's sucking in deep breaths, and I notice blood seeping into her shirt, from her past TIE-Fighter-crash chest wound.

"Kylo, listen." She whispers. I nod, ignoring my pain and trying to staunch the blood pouring from her own wound.

"If I am not banished, never to be seen by you again," she pauses, her voice growing raspy.

"This will be their fate." The words come from her mouth, but in Snoke's voice. She looks into the distance, as if in a trance.

Snoke appears behind her, his saber raised. He watches my face.

He raises his weapon, turning it over and holding the hilt upside down.

I scream in terror and agony as the glow plunges into her back.

The last thing I see is her lifeless face; the last thing I hear is the cries of children.

And then, I open my eyes.
