Note: I have been vague as all get out about the events leading up to this point, so hopefully this intro isn't too spoilery. Just to be safe, you are warned.

The world had gone hazy for several moments after his conflict previously. Blood loss, anger, a furiously beating heart ailed by pain to even get up. The man had lay there staring up at the sky, the stars and the galaxy, ragged of breath and struggling to get his bearings. He had to get up and get back to the base, the ship, somewhere that wasn't falling apart. Yet in the next moment when he opened his eyes and saw clearly he was not in that same place.

Something was not right.

He must have hit is head and wasn't seeing straight. Hadn't there been snow? The trees and ground looked unmarked as if he had simply been there, as if the fight had never happened. What? Ugh...Kylo Ren pushed himself up and ran a cool hand over his face. He winced in pain at sitting, at moving, but through a deep breath he turned over and managed to get to his knees. A tree was his aid. Then up to his feet he schlepped forward one pace at a time, following whatever light lay ahead of him. It must be the exit of the forest, at least into a clearing. He could be picked up there.

From his pocket he found a device. It felt new and old and he squeezed it before shouting into it for the General to come fetch him. Some woman replied, a woman with a voice he did not recognize--though he supposed of the thousands of members of the Empire he would not know every voice. Yet more than that she said Hux wasn't here. Was he new?

She was going to lose her head for this. He didn't have time for her. Every step he took was another drip-drop of blood tracked in his wake. Kylo Ren slumped...then fell to a knee, chest pressed against a cold tree as his breath shuddered. He was torn up, a mess. Some master he was. He had been bested by a novice. The look on his face said he was none too pleased, a scowl and a sneer, eyes filled with fire yet he also looked sick from the pain.

He couldn't get up.

The farm had been his aim for today's stroll. A horse would be a great help in Edith's and his life. The way to the city center was a long one. But first he had gotten lost and then he had started to worry. The sun had traveled a considerable path.

He had seen movement on the edge of a forest which drew him towards it. Thomas hoped it was no beast that he saw and wandered in the figures direction. "Hello, Good Sir!" A frown appeared on his face as he got closer. The figure did not look like it had simply sat down but, at least, it was a man. "Is everything all right?"

He looked up from the dirt and roots and blood that was staining it. His right hand was reaching around holding his wounded left side where he had been shot by that furry monster and his crossbow. In the least it was someone who could help him. Anyone would do at this point. Kylo Ren was on the struggle bus, sitting right up at the front behind the driver where he could be kept an eye on.

"No," the man said after a deep breath as he tried to climb up to his feet. The hand holding his side extended, the other pressed at the shoulder to the trunk for support. "I need medical attention immediately."

	Muscles relaxed as they moved on. He did not let his guard down. The man's behaviour was not that of a kind nature. But he did not seem like a momentary threat. "I do not know. I do not think it has one. You have come to a very strange place I have to admit. My wife and I are still not quite accustomed to it," he explained after steadying him again.

	Ah! A phone! That was how the stranger had wanted to call for help. Thomas was still puzzled about their use and functions. A forest was not very specific, how was someone to find them? But Thomas was hardly apt to carry the man who by now did not seem to have much strength left. "Uhm, Lacey, hello?" Could she hear him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Given the expanse of field before them followed by a distant city and the forest behind...forest was as specific as the newly arrived could get! Kylo Ren glanced at the device awaiting for the woman's reply. With a last bit of energy he barked at her. "Send transport immediately!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The look he gave the man was of death itself, which knocked at his own personal door. Kylo Ren lift the communicator with as much energy as he had left after his beating, cleared his throat, and spoke with a crisp, harsh tone. "My escort wants to know if the hospital is near a bakery, restaurant, or pub." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
