Lieutenant Mitaka sits in his sparsely furnished quarters at the table.
He doesn't seem happy. Frankly, it's a long time ago when he was a
happy man.
When he was asked to join the First Order, he was eager to pledge his
allegiance to the remnant of the Empire. The Empire, which has brought
order and peace to the galaxy. Then came the Rebellion and brought
chaos and war. He huffs. Those terrorists defeated the Empire and call
themselves the Republic now.
Dopheld Mitaka graduated as the best at the Academy and was assigned to
the First Order Star Destroyer Finalizer under
General Hux' command. It was a pleasent assignment. Pleasent until the
day when a tall, masked man entered the bridge.
Kylo Ren - the man who would be his nemesis.
General Hux assigned him as an orderly to the Master of the Knights of
Ren. It wasn't an easy task. His new assignment tended to throw a
tantrum when something doesn't went according to plan. And he,
Lieutenant Mitaka, was the one to bring the bad news. He witnessed
several times how Ren activated his lightsaber and demolished objects
and walls in his range.
And now he must deliver bad news again. The First Order was unable to
take hold on a droid at Jakku, which carries a map, Ren is in need of.
Mitaka sighs there is no way to avoid meeting Ren again. He stands up
slowly and grabs his cap. Mitaka goes like he's carrying the whole
galaxy on his shoulders. Finally he reaches the room where Ren is in.
Before he enters he asks himself in his mind: "Why always me?"
