Carrie's POV

"Girls!" Bodhi called, Jyn and I looked past all the troopers, and there he was, why did the universe hate me? (A/N parallel aye). Everything around me vanished, and I felt like it was just me and him, I couldn't even hear the shooting anymore, just my heartbeat, I could feel my breathing fasten, why did he have such an effect on me? What had I done to deserve this? I had never even considered befriending someone from the Empire, so why was I feeling weird stuff towards the imperial military director, I knew this wouldn't end well, but all I could do was hope.

Hope that all this would soon be over. Hope that I got out of this war alive. Hope that I could see the fall of the Empire just as I had seen it's rise. Hope. How can a simple word mean so much, and how can it sound so well with a certain name following it... hope that Krennic would survive all this. Hope that Krennic could leave the Empire. Hope that Krennic and I could be friends...

I didn't know what was going on anymore until I realized Jyn and Bodhi were fighting the troopers again, but I couldn't move... I was in some kind of a shock, I was frozen in place, my mind kept racing and my heart kept beating faster and faster. Krennic had noticed by now, he was frowning slightly, I blinked, what was he thinking about, he wasn't looking at any of us, he was looking at the floor, deep in thought, what was on his mind? I couldn't help but wonder if he was alright, it certainly didn't looked like it, he looked concerned.

I heard a shot right next to me and I snapped out of my thoughts, I began shooting the Deathtroopers and Stormtroopers again and it felt like forever until there were eight left, six Stormtroopers and two Deathtroopers

"I have a bad feeling about this" Bodhi muttered as they circled us, all of their blasters aimed at us, we couldn't fight them anymore, if we shot one, the other seven would kill the three of us, we lowered our blasters and Jyn glared at the Director, who was looking at us again.

"There's no point in fighting anymore, you won't win" Krennic said, I didn't look at him, I didn't want to, if I got distracted by my own thoughts again, I'd probably get killed, and I was not going to die today

Jyn and I glanced at each other "you know, Director Krennic, if I shoot you, I might get killed, but it'd be nice to take you down with me" oh my Force. Did I really just say that? He glared at me, I felt relieved that he got that other meaning instead of what I did

"Well, you have had your chance quite a few times now, I'm beginning to get impatient" he said sarcastically. If I were Force sensitive, I would Force choke him or something... not that I would be able to... I couldn't even think properly when I saw him, the problem was that I didn't know why

Krennic walked to us and I tensed up, he looked annoyed, but I knew it wasn't because of us... there was something more to it, I looked into his icy blue eyes

Just like the last time, they were filled with sadness and hope, but also betrayal. Who could have hurt him enough for him to come with only four Deathtroopers? Or even show up, he was a big deal, he could've stayed in the spacestation and let the troopers do all the work, his eyes seemed less icy than the first time, but the sadness in them  was more intense.

"Sir, do we take them to the ship?" a Deathtrooper asked, Krennic looked at us and then back at him

"No" he answered "just handcuff them, I'll take care of this"

"But..." a Stormtrooper started "Governor Tarkin told us not to-" Krennic shot him a death glare and the trooper shut up, handcuffing us

"Well, now you're going to tell me what I want to know" he said, taking a step closer to us

"Yeah... I don't think so" Bodhi said, Krennic pointed his blaster at him and raised his eyebrows "I'd rather die than help you again, Director"

"You're following Erso's footsteps, I do not recommend that, his wife ended up dead because of that" I looked at Jyn, who looked like she was going to kill him, and shook my head lightly when she looked back at me "you're all going to come with me whether you like it or not" he said lowering his blaster, the three of us looked at each other and waited for him to ask whatever it was he wanted to know, even though we weren't going to tell him anything.

He began asking us questions about weird stuff and I wasn't paying attention to what anyone was saying, it was just too hard to focus on something when he was before me, I couldn't help it, it was either thinking about him or just do something that wouldn't help me nor the Rebellion.

"- I don't have any, I can't have any, if I did, I would have to let you escape and betray the Empire, and that is not going to happen" Krennic said, I blinked, what didn't he have? He glanced at me "so, little Carrie" I frowned "where are the other Rebels that were here with you earlier?" He asked

"Next question please" I said casually, Jyn and Bodhi chuckled and Krennic walked even closer to me until we were inches apart

"How much do you know?" He said lowly, my breath hitched, and he took a step back waiting for my answer, I knew he meant about the Death Star, but I wasn't going to give him the satisfaction to know I didn't know much

"Everything" I lied, he frowned "Bodhi told us everything" that wasn't entirely a lie, he had told us some stuff, but we didn't know much. Krennic looked at me, he knew it wasn't true, but he didn't know the truth either, and that was what mattered

"In how many ships did you come?" He asked the troopers

"Three, sir" a Deathtrooper responded

"Take all of them to different ships"

Who wants cute stuff to happen already?? I know I can't wait to post what I have written for the future chapters :)

I hope you enjoyed this

Love y'all
