There was news at the resistance base on D'qar. There was a new sith Lord but it wasn't the empire since they had fallen 30 years ago. This army was called the first order. The first order was lead by a monster of a man called Kylo Ren. As I frequently passed Leia on day to day stuff. I heard her talk to Han about their son Ben. One day when I walked past. I heard her say something that made me think about my friendship with him. 'There's to much Vader in him' she told Han. I heard Han sigh. 'I'll bring him home' he said and with that he got up and headed towards the door. He looked to his right and saw me. I was a sodden mess. I thought to myself. My best friend Ben was gone. Han walked over and placed a his arm around my shoulder. 'Don't worry he's still Ben' he told before walking off. I hoped there was still a part of Ben inside this Kylo Ren. I got up and followed Han. 'I want to come with you' I announced as if it was the most casual thing to do. Han turned and faced me with his eyebrow raised. 'It's gonna be dangerous kid' he told me. 'I laugh in the face of danger' I chuckled before walking on to his ship. The falcon . Han followed me laughing from my previous comment. Chewie made communication noises in the background. I breathed in deeply and thought to myself what if he didn't recognise me. I sat with Han upfront as a co pilot. I turned to face Han before we set off. 'What if he doesn't recognise me?' I asked Han. He reached over and sqeeuzed my hand and looked me in the eye. 'He was your best friend of course he'll remember you' he reassured me before turning back to his seat and he began to take off. The remainder of the trip was in silence. I was thinking a lot about Kylo and if he would recognise me. Before I knew it we had landed on Jakku. 'Come on' Han said climbing out of his chair and out to the desert plains of the planet. I sighed it was a place I remembered coming to as a little girl with my mom before she told me my father Obi Wan was killed by Darth Vader. Han made his way over to the hut where you could buy food positions and began to ask questions about the first order. The guy who was in charge of the hut shook his head. Han hung his head and began to look at the market stalls. I came out of the ship few minutes later with Chewie. 'Why did you come here? I asked Han. With him there was always a reason. 'When Ben was a teen he use to come here and try to use the force on objects' he said remembering his son. Suddenly as we turned to look at a market stall with droids on. A ship of storm troopers out of no where landed on Jakku and began rounding up small boys and girls. I heard somewhere that the first order rounded up little kids to make them into storm troopers. 'You are weak' I heard in my head. I didn't recognise the voice. I thought it was Han Solo's but he didn't know the way the force until suddenly a command shuttle landed and out walked a man all in black and a mask covering his face.
