《The Battle of Two hearts (Completed)》 Chapter 1 (Disclaimer will be at the end) Diendt had finally become a Jedi Master, but it would not be long before she will be fleeing for her life.Years had gone by and she was still looking for Ben Solo, her old childhood friend. She had lived on Naboofor three weeks until The First Orderbegan attacking her beloved city. Diendt managed to get all theyounglings on atransport that, thankfully, gotaway safely. Now she was the only on left and imperial troops where flooding the streets. Shedashed for herX-wing, ready to take flight. Blaster beams raced past her head andshe turned on her green light saber, deflecting the blasts.Diendt ducked behind a large rock and leapt into the cockpit ofher ship, putting her saber away. She desperately tried to turn on theX-wing, butit wouldn''t start. There seemed to be something wrong with the hyper drive. So instead,she jumped out of the X-wing and ran. As she bolted she caught sight ofa man dressed in black with a terrifying metal mask covering his face.His presence felt familiar, but she didn''t stop to find out who was behind the mask. Diendt yelped as a blaster bullet exploded on the ground next to her. She spun around, her light saber humming to life in her hands. Loud pops filled the airas shecarefully walked backward, deflecting the blaster beams that bombarded her. "Stop her," saida deep metallicvoice belonging the familiar man, "I want her alive." If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. "Yes, my Lord," said theStormtroopers. Diendt quickly shut off her saber and ran as fast as she could, using the Force to give her strength. After what seemed like hours of running away from her pursuers she slowed at the sight of an abandoned ship. With the Stormtroopers hot onher trail she knew she would have to hide and fast. Making a quick decision she dove inside the ship. When she entered a waveblaster beamsflew past her. "Crap" She muttered as she searched for somewhere to hide herself. As the Stormtroopers came closer she ran further into the ship, it was much larger then she thought.Relief filled her as shefound the perfect spot, a small dark room, probably used for droids. She slipped inside and shut the door behind her. It hissed softly as she locked it,engulfing herself in complete darkness. The stormtrooperspounding footsteps echoed throughout the ship.Aparade of footsteps stopped outside her door. The stormtroopers banged on the door,announcing it was locked. The footstepscontinued, slowly fading. After what seemed like hours there was complete silence and Diendtopened the door, quietly emerging from her spot. She wandered around the ship, finding it in good working condition. After finding the cockpit, she started it up and quickly left the planet, headinganywherebesides Naboo. "We lost her my Lord," The Stormtroopercommander reported as the large group oftroopsflowed back to the city. He stood respectfully behind the tall masked man. "How could you let her getaway!" Kylo shouted angrily, spinning around to face the Stormtrooper," get my ship ready,we aregoing after her." Chapter 2 Diendt had been traveling for hours, she was hungry, thirsty, and exhausted. She checked her scanner and found Endor was close. She set her course for Endor, deciding she would get supplies and rest there.She made a rough landing andstepped out of the ship, which she had found out was a Jedi Starfighter. Diendt wandered about the forest, searching for the native Ewoks, hoping she could befriend them and get help from them. Meanwhile Kylo Ren was still trying to find Diendt. He paced thedark floor of his Imperial Shuttle as he waited for General Macil to reportback to him. They had beentrying to find and followDiendt''s ship for quite some time now. The door hissed open and Kylo spun to see a slightly trembling, General Macil. He frowned at the General even though the man couldn''t seehis expression. "What is it?" Kylo said harshly. General Macil stammered, "W-we have lost her again,m-my Lord." Kylo''s hilted lightsaber hissed to life in moments. "WHAT DID YOU SAY!?!" He shouted, enraged at losing his target. "Sh-she went to light speed and we lost her" The General sputtered, visibly shaking. Kyloswung his light saber viciously, severing and destroying the electronic panels around him. Sparks flew through the air and Kylo took a threatening step toward the General, raising a gloved hand. "This is your fault" He said lowly.General Macil took a small, retreating step, looking at Kylo with wide eyes. "This will be your last mistake, General Macil" Kylo growled, slowly closing his hand into a fist.The General''s eyes bulged and he clawed at his neck, gasping for breath. His neck muscle tensed and then his body fell limp. Kylo turned to the door, The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation. "Reece!" He yelled sharply. A thin, young man scurried into the room,performing atimid bow. "Yes my Lord?" The man said, ina voice stronger then Kylo expected. "I wantyou to set ourcourse forEndor, I have a feeling she isthere," Kylo said gruffly,"it''s timeshe knows the truth." " Right away sir," said the General Reece, turning to leave the room. "And get someone to clean up this mess!" Kylo called out to the General. "Yes, Lord" General Reece said with a curt nod before fleeing from the room. Diendt finally stumbled upon a small brown Ewok. She pulled the last bit of food from her pocket and the Ewok quickly consideredher a friend.The small creature led her through the trees and into a small village flowing with Ewoks of all sizes. They took her into a tiny hut and untangled her mocha brown hair, braiding some of it up and leaving the rest to run over her shoulders. Diendt laughed as the little things waddled around her and bounced throughoutthe hut. When they finished giving her a complete ''make-over'', including new clothes, she was given a large bowl of food. She was sitting down eating whenshe felt the presence of someone she knew. " Ben," she whispered. As soon as she finished herfood she left. Diendt wandered the woods closing her eyes and using the Force to guide her to her childhood friends. Suddenly the Force shuddered and her eyes flew open as a soft humming filled the air. She was face to face with the maskedmanfrom Naboo. His light saber was drawn, the deep red glow lighting up his face. "Who are you?" She asked in a shaken voice as she took a step back,"and what doyou want fro-"But before she could finish she wasviolently shoved back into a tree andthe worldwas black. Chapter 3 Diendt woke up, her head still pulsing. " Where am I," Diendt said curling up in a ball shaking of coldness. " You are on my Imperial Shuttle," said a deep metallic voice in a corner. Diendthad heard that voice before. Her brain had a flashback to Endor. He was the one who knocked me out. Snapping out of her flashback, she went to grab her lightsabar but it wasn''t there. She started to tremble, " Why am I here?" " Because I think you know where Luke Skywalker is and because it is time you know the truth about Ben Solo," said the deep metallic voice standing up and walking into the light. " What do you mean''the truth'',"saidDiendt sitting up. Taking of his mask he said, " I wasBen Solo, but Inow I am Kylo Ren," he said in a more gentle voice. Diendt was shocked. " Why? How could you do this!" Diendt said yelling at him. " Don''t yell at me," he said yelling back at her, " now it is time for you to tell me where Luke Skywalker is." Diendt really didn''t know where he was, but if shehad an idea where he wass she wasn''t about to tell Kylo. " Never!" she said in a strong voice. " Fine I guess I will have to force it out of you," he saidrising his hand up to her head. Diendt felt like her head was about to blow up, but wasn''t going to let him know where Luke might be. The painonly got worse. She started to scream, then the pain went away. " Will you tell me now?" Kylo asked in away that almost sounded like he didn''t want to hurt her again. " Never," shesaid again in a even more strong voice. In rage Kylo drew his lightsaber and started hitting everything around him including Diendt. " Ow," she screamedas she felt a sharp pain go across her face. Kylo turned around to see that there was a small cut across her face. This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. " That will teach you a lesson," he said even though he didn''t mean to hit her. " General Reece take her to her room and clean up her face," he said storming out of the room. "Yes mylord," Reece said motioning his men to grab her. Diendt was in too much pain to fightand soon the world became black. When Diendt woke up she was determined to leave this place but how. She looked around her room and saw her lightsaber.Grabbing it she left her room. Two stormtroops stopped her and said, "Go back to your room, you weren''t permitted to leave." With a gentle wave ofher hand Diendt said, " I don''t need to go back to my room, I am free to go." Then thestormtroops said, "You don''t need to go back to your room, you are free to go." With a smile she left andtried to find her way to the place where the fighters and shuttles were held. Turn after turn she went through the ship until finally she made it to where thefighters were.There wasbarely any people there and Diendt saw a TIE Fighter in very good shape. As she walked by she suddenly heard voice and the whiz of bullets going by her head. Pulling out her lightsaber she startedblocking bullets. As she started getting closer to the ship she saw Kylo heading her way. Then she said to herself, " Time to go." Shutting off her lightsaber she ran to the TIE fighter. While the door was shutting she was praying that it would work and it did. As she started to leave she started getting firedupon. " Should we go after?" asked General Reece. "No, I''llgo after her later. I have something I need to do first." Kylosaid softly. All the sudden all firing of bullets stopped and Diendt soon made her escape and was heading to the Resistance. Chapter 4 She had been traveling for hours and she finally saw the Resistance base circling the planet D''Qar.As she came closer to it she started getting fired upon. "This is Diendt," she repeated until the firing stopped. " Welcome master Jedi," said a familiar voice. It was Leia. " Thanks Leia but you don''t have to call me that,"said Diendt laughing. When Diendt landed she was greeted with a warm welcome from everyone. After everyoneleft Leia asked her where she had been and what happened to her face. With a sigh Diendt said, " How about you take me to a place where I can stay then I will tell you what happened." " Okay,"Leia said smiling. When they arrived to where Diendt would be staying Leia said, " Okay, telling me everything." " Okay, butyou better hold on to your seat it a long story but I will try to make it short," Diendt said smiling. As hours went by Diendt was reaching the end of her story. " Now we come the hard parts of the story," Diendt''s face turning serious, " Leia,Luke has gonemissing." "What!" she said in a shocked voice,"why." "No one knows whyand it gets worse. You said you wanted to know how I got this scare across my face. Well there is a new leader for the dark side andhis name is Kylo Ren. He captured me because he thought that I know where Luke was but I don''t. So then he got mad and started raging andended upgrazing his lightsabar across my face. " Well I think that scar makes you looktough," Leia said laughing trying to lighten the mode. But it didn''t really help. The thought of Lukegone missing and the threat of Kylo Ren made themnervous. If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. " Well I have to get back to work, nice talking to you," Leia said standing up and walking out of the room. " Goodbye," Diendt said feelingbetter after getting all that stuff off her chest. As she walked over to her minor she looked at the scar on her face and said, " You know what, I kinda like this scar. It looks really cool and it does make me look tough," she said smiling. Diendt was very tired so she decided to take a nap. As she was sleeping she dreamed that Kylo Ren had killed hisfather, Han Solo. Jolting awake she looked around her room then hear a knocking on her door.Diendt opened the door. It was Leia. " Good morning," said Leia smiling. " Good morning,"Diendt said smiling back. Leia then handed hersome breakfast. Diendt saw Leia as a good friend, but more so as a mother.Afterfinishing her breakfastDiendt said, " I am leaving." " Why," Leia said her face turning serious. " I sense that Kylo is looking for me and I need to confront him and I don''t want him to find out wherethis base is." Nodding in agreementshe stood up and said, " Iunderstand what you mean.Diendt, good luck and may the force be with you." Diendt standing up said, " You too," trying not to cry knowing that she could die if she confronts Kylo. Diendt packed up her things and headed to her TIE fighter and set her course toEndor where she would wait for Kylo and try to get him to come back to the light side. Kylowas doing the same thing too but he wanted her to come to the dark side. Chapter 5 As Diendt entered Endor she couldfeel the presence of Kylo. Landing her TIE fighter she walked around for hours until she final saw an ewok and decided to follow it back toits camp where she would stay the night and continue her search for Kylo the next day. Just as the sun broke the sky Diendt got up and left. Shehad a feeling that she was going to find Kylo so she swallowed her fear and continued her search for him. A few hours later she felt the presence of Kylo very near her. When she turned around she saw him and her heart stopped. She stood there frozen in fear not sure what todo. Should I run or pull my lightsaber on him? The thought ran through her head until she decided to say something. " What are you doing here?" she said shaking in fear. Kylo reach out his hand, brushed her hair back, and said, " I came to bring you back with me to the dark side. What are you doing here?" " I came to bring Ben Solo back with me to the light side." Kylo pulled his hand back. His face was angry. " Don''t call me that," he said drawing his lightsaber. Diendt was caught off guard by that and force pushed him back then drew her lightsaber. Standing back up he started towards her. Diendt watched every move he made. Then he swung at her. Blocking it she swung back. Kylo swung as well. The sound of the lightsabers collidingalmost seemed like it could be heard from miles away. Swing after swing theyswung at each other until Diendt grazed his arm. Kylo showed no sign of pain instead he swung harder and faster. Barely keeping up Diendt blocked every swing until she was pinned against a tree where she saw a scar on his face she had never seen until now. " Join me and we can rule theFirst Order together. I don''t want to hurt you anymore," Kylo said almost reaching for her face. " No, join me and we can defeat the First Oder and start all over again except we can work together. I don''t want to hurt you either," Diendt said as tears came to her eyes knowing that saying this he might overpower her and kill her. Angry raged in his eyes but before he could make a move Diendt took herchange and started fighting back. Swinging harder then she ever had until he started fighting back as well.Back and forth they went until they both stabbed each other''s side. They both fell to the ground. Diendt screamed in pain.Her worst fear was being stabbed. They both shut off their lightsaber. Kylo started crawling over to Diendt. She started backing up saying, If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it." Don''ttouch me," she said in a weak voice. The world was spinning and she didn''t like it. She could barely hear Kylo saying, " Iam not going to hurt you." As tears went down his face. His worst fear was hurting her andhe didexactly that. Suddenly as Diendt was crawling the world went black again. Her body laid there not moving. Kylo feared that he had killed her. Crawling to her, he felt her neck. There was still a pulse. Kylo rapped her side and using all his strength her grabbed her and slowlystarted walking backto his TIE fighter. An hour later he had finally made it to his TIE fighter. It was a one person plane but in the case it became to two person plane. Kylo set his course to the main ship and was hoping that he could get Diendthelp before it was to late. Diendt started to wake up. She saw that she was in aTIE fighter, but it wasn''t hers. As she looked around she saw Kylo. She was leaned against him. Then the pain hit her again. She made a small squeal in pain. Kylo looked at her hestroked her face trying to calm her. It worked a little bit,but soon she was unconscious again. Soon theywere and the main ship Kylo gave her to the doctor of the ship and then left to get himself fixed up as well. As soon as Kylo was felling better he went to see the doctor. " How is she?" he asked. " Not good," said the doctor, "I would say she got a 40% chance of surviving this. Chapter 6 Sadness and fear hit his heart like a personwho gotshot. Soon he left the room and went to a private place and started destroying everyone thing. Afterthat he sit down and startedto think about things. Why am I falling in love with her? I am supposed to kill her. Why am I taking care of her then?After thinking this he got up and decided to endthis. He entered the roomDiendtwas inhegot ready to push the off button for her oxygen when he suddenly stopped. Why am I doing this? Ilove her too much to kill her. On thinking that thought he started to cry. Grabbing Diendt''s hand he said with tears flowing down his face, " Diendt, came backto me. I amsorry I didn''t mean to hurt you." Diendt began to open her eyes. She saw Kylo crying and slowly lifted her hand to his face wiping the tears from his face she said quietly, " I am going to be okay, don''t worry about me." Grabbing her hand he slightly smiled. Then suddenly there came a reaped beeping. He looked up and saw that her heart rate was dropping. Kylo stood up, dried his tears, and yelled for the medical droid. Themedical droidcame in and started compressions. Luckily her heart rate started to come back up. From then on Diendt started doing better. In a few days shewas conscious again.If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. A few days past and Diendt was perfectly healthy again but again she needed to get off theship or soon she would be headed to the dark side. She soon went toa TIE fighter and quietly made her escape. As she left she saw Kylo he looked angry. She felt sorry somind messaged Kylo saying she wasn''t going to join the dark side and she didn''t want to get in the way of Kylo''s mission but that she was sure that they would meet again. Kylo on hearing this was confused and angrier with her. How could she do this after he had cared for her. But he didn''t know that Diendt had left a thank you note. Kylo went back to his room where he found a folded up letter. He unfolded it and read it. It said, "I know that I wasn''t able to say thisto your face and I really wanted to, but thank you. In two days from now I would like it if you would meant me on Naboo where I will tell you if I will join you on the dark side or not. I will not be bringing mylightsaberso there will be not battling and I would appreciate if you didn''t bring your.Hopefully see you in two days. Bye." After reading this letter Kylo smiling a little. He was hoping she would chose to come to the dark side, buthe doubted if that would really happen. He thought about it and decided that he would go and not bring his lightsaber. Chapter 7 Diendt hadn''t been on Naboo long before Kylo had come. " Hello," Diendt said smiling, " I see you read my letter." "Yes, I did. Sodo you have ananswer?" he asked looking at her. " Yes," she said smiling. After a few seconds of silences Diendt said, " I have decided to join you on the dark side." Kylo was very happy to here her say that. Smiling he said, " I never thought you would say that." Diendt smiled, Kylo brushed her hair back, lifted her chin, then kissed her. To Diendt the kiss seemed to last forever. When they pulled away they smiled at each. " Shall we go back to our ship," Kylo said holding out his hand for her to grab. " Yes, but there is one rule. I can''t do any missions with you." she said frowning and grabbing his hand. " It doesn''t matter as long as I have you." he said smiling a kissing her on the cheek. Months had gone by and their relationship grew stronger. One day Kylo and Diendt were, for once,assigned a mission together. As they left in theirTIE fightersthey stayed in contact with each other. " How did your radar look?" Kylo asked. " I am clear how about you?" Diendt said " Same," Kylo said. " Okay I am going in for a landing," Diendt said. Their mission was to find andkill a Jedi somewhere on the planet of Naboo. When theylanded on Naboo Diendt got a feeling that is was going to be her last battle but ignoredit. She was however cautious. As they walked thougha forestDiendt said, " If I don''t survive this I want you knowI love you." " What makes you think that," Kylo said turning to her grabbing her hands and brushing back her hair. " I don''t know I just got this feeling this will be my last battle," she said frowning. " Well as long as I am here no one is going to hurt you," he said kissing her on the forehead.They continued walking until they reached the end of the forest.As they started walking out into the meadow Diendt stopped. Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon." What''s wrong," said Kylo looking at her. " Something doesn''t fe-," but before she could finish a sharp pain hit her in the ribs. When she looked down she saw blood flowing from herside right where her ribs where. After seeing that she fell down to the ground. Kylo ranover to her but before he got to her he saw aJedi starting to flee with a gun. He shot off after him. When Kylo caught up with him in angry killed him in the worst way possible. He ran back to Diendt. Diendt was in a lot of pain. Kylo grabbed her and held her in his arms. theblood from her side was getting all over him. He tore some of his clothes and tried clogging the bleeding, butit wasn''t working. Diendt grabbed his hand and said, " It''s no use. I am going to die anyway." " No, I am not going to lose you," Kylo said crying, " you will make it. Trust me you will." " Kylo," Diendt said in pain that made it hard to talk. " What," he said looking at her with tears still flowing down his face. " I love you," she said " I love you too," Kylo said crying, " but don''t leave, I need you." " Kiss me like you did the first time we kissed," she barely managed to say. With that Kylo kissed her. The kiss brought comfort to Diendt even though she wasdying. After they got done kissing Diendt smiled and said, " Thank you for everything." Seconds later Diendt laid back a little bit than her body went motionless. " Diendt,don''t leave me! Come back! Come back please! Come back!" Kylo screamed as even more tears went down his face. He felt her neck for a pulse, but there was none. After that a roll of thunder came then it started to rain. Kylo still holding her stood up with the rain falling down hishair andwalked her died body over by a flower in the meadow and lied her bodythere. Crying he said, "I will have revenge for you. They will pay for this," his face turned more serious and angry. Kiss her one more time he left to start his revenge on the Jedi.
