( kylo had been tracking the creature for a while now, observing its habits. unlike the creatures from the attack months before, this one moved with the ponderous care of an old woman negotiating a packed grocery aisle, pausing occasionally to toss its lure.
a lure that was alarmingly realistic.
he’d been fortunate, so far, in that it hadn’t managed to draw much attention. the louder, faster creatures had driven most of the neighbourhood indoors, with the stragglers tucking themselves into whatever shelter they might find.
but good luck can’t hold indefinitely. the angler shambles its way into an alleyway, throwing out its lure and waiting.
and waiting.
and waiting. except, rather than being ignored this time someone is drawn in. a sharp, alarmed cry shattering the silence. a familiar cry.
without the force to lend him strength, kylo ren has to rely on his own power. fortunately, he's not gotten too soft, so when he throws himself at the angler, he manages to find decent purchase, pulling himself up and onto its back. )
