We began to walk towards what I presumed was the room with the medical droids. I was walking slightly behind Kylo, even if I was his so called apprentice now, I was still slightly scared of him.
                          
"I can sense fear within you (Y/n), fear is a sign of weakness" Ren had said out of the blue as we continued to walk. 
                          
"I do have reason to be scared Master Ren", I hate having to call him that, it sounds so weird. 
                          
"What reason?" he seemed to genuinely question. 
                          
I took a deep breath, "Well...you have murdered countless people, including your own father. What's to stop you from killing me if I step out of line? huh?" I turned my answer into a question. 
                          
"You're my apprentice now, I have no intention of hurting you."
                          
We arrived at the room with the medical droid. One of them fixed my arm up, and stitched a little cut I had on my face. I didn't look too bad just a few scratches and bruises with my arm bandaged, i've had a lot worse before. Ren had just waited on a chair beside the hospital bed and once I was finished he called for one of the stormtroopers. 
                          
"(Y/n), I have business to attend to, LK-2405 will show you to your quarters, where you will be staying. LK-2405 will also be the stormtrooper that will guard your room." 
                          
"LK-2405? Do they not have names?" I asked. 
                          
"No. They each have an identification code. Now, I must go" Kylo said in his still robotic sounding voice. 
                          
He left the room and I could hear his loud footsteps fade as he got further away. 
                          
"So LK-2405, no name huh?" I said to the stormtrooper standing in front of me. 
                          
"No Mam. I am going to bring you to your quarters, so if you'd follow me." she said. 
                          
"Well alright then, I feel like we're going to be around each other a lot if your going to guard my room and I don't particularly want to call you LK-2405. Is there a name you like that I could call you?" I said her as we began to walk to my room. 
                          
"No Mam." She replied.
                          
"Um I think i'll call you Katia, is that alright?" I said looking over to her. 
                          
"You can call me whatever you like Mam" Katia said still facing forward. "We have arrived, these are your quarters. I will be just outside the door Mam" She said standing to the left of the door. 
                          
"Ok cool. Also can you just call me (Y/n)? Mam makes me feel old" I smiled but I obviously couldn't see Katia's face so I don't know how she reacted. 
                          
"Yes Ma- I mean (Y/n)"
                          
I walked into my room. It was actually quite nice, there was no colour it was all grey but it was fine...besides I shouldn't actually be here for too long. The resistance would probably come rescue me. I decided to have a look around my new room. Why does Kylo call them quarters, it makes it sound so weird. 
                          
There was a decent sized single bed in the middle of the room with grey covers. There was a wardrobe and when I looked inside it was just full of black sweatpants, shorts, t-shirts, tank tops and boots. Everything is so dark here. There was a black longer robe with a black belt too. That must be for when it's cold or something. There was a desk and little bedside table. Also attached onto the room was a small bathroom with a toilet sink and shower. Maybe this won't be sooo bad, it's just like staying in a hotel room. I thought trying to reassure myself that everything was going to be ok.
                          
I decided to change out of my clothes into a black tank top and sweatpants. My clothes were pretty screwed up from the crash. So much had happened since the crash. I mean i'm literally Kylo Ren's apprentice now. Part of me was worrying and wondering why I agreed to it. I had to remind myself that it would be fine and that I was just going to have to try and gather information. I decided to take action and I made up an excuse to leave my room. I opened the door. 
                          
"Hey Katia, quick question, where's Master Ren's room" I asked, I didn't want to get caught by him. 
                          
"I'm unsure if i'm authorised you give you that information Ma- (Y/n)" She said facing forward still. 
                          
"I don't see why you wouldn't. I'm his apprentice now, remember?" I asked trying to get the answer out of her. 
                          
"Commander Ren's quarters are in the door next to yours on the right." She replied. 
                          
Of course his room had to be right next to mine. Why would he have me stay right next to his room. It'd still be fine, i'll just go left instead. 
                          
"Thanks Katia, Imma just go for a quick walk and stretch my legs" I started walking, but she had began to walk next to me. 
                          
I stopped and turned to her, and explained I would be fine without her. I wouldn't be able to gather any information with a stormtrooper basically attached to me. She was extremely hesitant but I persuaded her to stay. Imagine needing to use the force for persuasion, ha take that Rey. 
                          
I walked down the hall looking looking for something, I didn't know what, but just something...anything. I was entirely lost now and there was no way I was getting back to my room anytime soon. This place is like a maze. I turned another corner quickly and ran into Kylo by accident. He didn't even flinch but I fell back and onto the ground. He wasn't wearing his mask which was a bit weird.
                          
"Woah" I flinched at my sore arm as I tried to get out. 
                          
"(Y/n) what are you doing away from your quarters" he didn't sound as cold as usual for some reason, maybe it was the fact that there was no one else around. He reached his hand out to me.
