[ Kylo stares down the stormtrooper, their panicked mind an open book. They didn't know Hux had any of this in mind. No thought or desire for mutiny was in their head, only fear of death and reconditioning. What was one less trooper really, when they were so easily replaceable?

Still, Poe's words don't go unheard. After a few more moments Kylo lowers her lightsaber but doesn't power it off. ]
Drop your weapon. [ The command carries no extra power to it but near immediately their issued blaster clatters to the floor and the trooper makes an effort to stand at attention.

When the door slides open Kylo raises her saber again and shifts position, putting herself between where Poe is and the doorway. The commotion has quieted and it's one of her Knights that enters the room, the same one that alerted her in the first place. ]


"The disloyal troops have been dealt with."

Losses?

"None." [ The Knight surveys the carnage, and the lone surviving trooper. ] "What about this one?"

Have one of the others make sure they report for reconditioning. I'm not going to take any chances. [ She finally powers off her lightsaber and returns it to her belt. ] Send another to search Hux's quarters, he may have been foolish enough to leave a record of those willing to support him. And I want you personally to see that the generals are summoned for a meeting within the hour. I need to determine their loyalty and denote a replacement for Hux.

[ While the Knight ushers the trooper out of the room and leaves to speak to the other Knights in the corridor, Kylo turns her attention at last to Poe. Walking over, she hits the switch to unlock the restraints and gives him a quick once-over. ] Do you feel steady enough to walk? [ The trek to medical will be quicker if she doesn't need to assist him but she will if need be, seeing as she has need to go there herself. Honestly, she wouldn't bother having her shoulder looked at yet but the shot was to the same shoulder Rey hit with the end of the lightsaber (Kylo refused to consider the saber Rey's; it was hers by blood, damn it) which increased the pain and the amount of effort ultimately needed to heal it, provided she didn't solely rely on traditional means. ]
