027. GHOSTS NOW GREMLINS

∘₊✧───────────────────────────✧₊∘

"You're part of the first order, can't you do something?!"

Finn hadn't realized that Evangeline had entered the room until she answered his question, "Not anymore. Someone else took his place."

"What does she mean by that?" Poe raised an eyebrow and directed his question toward Kylo Ren before facing Evangeline, "What do you mean by that?"

"There's a new supreme leader," Rey answered as she entered the room with BB-8 on her heels.

"Why don't we just throw a party while your base is under attack," Kylo Ren muttered under his breath.

"Not now, Ben," Leia reprimanded her son.

How many people were in the room? Finn looked around and silently began to count. Poe, Rey, Leia, BB-8, himself, Evangeline, another droid and one of the other generals that Leia had briefly introduced to him. The room had certainly grown crowded.

"He does have a point," Evangeline said, "Something should be done about the First Order."

"We've got pilots taking care of things as we speak," Poe replied.

"Funny that you aren't one of them," she retorted, "Find yourself grounded to your room?"

Poe tried to protest, but Leia held up a hand, "We can argue later, we need to evacuate the base while the fighters buy us some time."

"Where to?" Poe asked, "We barely managed to find this place in time to lay low for a while."

"And who's fault is it that the First Order now knows our location?" Leia asked rhetorically, "Forget placing the blame and start evacuating the base. We'll figure out where along the way."

Finn didn't have time to protest the lack of a plan since he was practically forced out of the room to begin spreading the news that they were evacuating. However, things only seemed to look worse once Finn returned to the hangar and half of the open space was on fire.

"What happened here?!"

"One of the x-wings returned and started firing upon entry. Apparently we were infiltrated by more than one spy. She escaped with the prisoner by stealing one of the shuttles."

Finn turned to face the golden droid who explained what happened.

"TF-3617," Finn stated and looked at Poe, "Must've been your replacement that Oryll found."

"I knew I was irreplaceable," Poe said, forming a grin.

"Wipe that stupid look off your face and get on one of those shuttles, Dameron," Leia commanded as she entered that hangar.
