Kylo didn't show up for the rest of the flight. So you spent it with Chewbacca, he was very pleasant company. At least from the way he behaved, after all you couldn't really understand him. Unlike most Wookies you had seen so far, he wasn't as angry. Or maybe it just was because he was chained to the wall. He certainly was interested in you, given the little fall out you had with Kylo Ren earlier.

You tried communicating with him by showing him random objects and asking what it meant in wookie. The growling sounded always the same though. Once you'd have a translator droid you'd be able to ask him a few more things about Kylo.

"Looks like I'll be staying with you for a while.", you complained to Chewie who howled back something, "The Supreme Leader", your voice was half mocking his title, "has assigned me to stay with you."

You lifted your data pad up, Kylo had told you to watch over him. Until he'd need you again. He couldn't even tell that to you in person? What was his problem now...

You scoffed and just wrote an: "Alright." back. Of course you weren't allowed to join the Knights in their search for Rey. Not after...not after you'd almost shot her. It had been a mistake but Kylo didn't seem to understand that you had thought he had died. The absurdity of the situation still hadn't really settled in yet.

The doors to the holding cell opened and a few stormtroopers removed the wookie from the wall. You followed them.

Hux greeted you in the hangar. Even though greeting was a bit of an overstatement, he mustered you from top to bottom and then proceeded to just walk off into a direction, probably expecting you to follow him. Which...you did, you were supposed to stay with Chewbacca and he was taking the prisoner somewhere after all.

Wasn't this a great way to show off your power? Of course it was! Staying silent and just expecting everyone to know what you wanted was the best way to gain respect! It totally wasn't annoying at all.

"How come you're always with the Supreme Leader?", the tone of his voice was horrible. Talking down and mocking you at the same time. He probably would have looked down on you too, if you weren't as tall as you were. At least you had that. If you'd be wearing heels you'd probably be taller than him. And definitely more intimidating. Maybe you should try it?

"Because I'm his personal medic."

A simple answer for a stupid question.

He scoffed, "How did you end up as his medic? You're hardly any better than the others. There are a lot more fitting staff on hand for that job..."

"Dr. Escyle for example?"

It was a wild guess but from the minimal change in his facial expression you weren't entirely wrong with your assumption.

"The difference between me and him is...that Kylo can take me into battle. I won't start screaming like a baby. I'm a combat medic. Not a plastic surgeon."

"You aren't the best combat medic either."

"I'm the best for him personally."

This could go on for a while and neither of you wanted to engage in a childish fight. You had to give that to Hux at least, he knew when to stop...sometimes.

Escyle and Hux were close, you had suspected it for a while, now it was clear.

You didn't like this one bit, especially because Escyle and Rosie were dating. Rosie could usually keep her mouth shut but she didn't do it around people she trusted...hopefully she kept your secrets safe from him.

Well. No way to change it now, you could only hope. Apart from that, there was a full blown war going on and you had better things to do than worry about which gossip had reached your former superior's ears.
