First A/N: YOU'RE WELCOME! I UPDATED TODAY! NOT NEXT SATURDAY, NOT TOMORROW.

BUT YOU WILL NOT BE GETTING ANYMORE UPDATES UNTIL NEXT SATURDAY. Now for the real A/N

-----

Things are getting heated!

Listen to the song up there for the first part (Indicated) I love Shawn Mendes soooo much! This is probably my favorite song yet (beside Stitches).

Alright, alright, you get your chapter.

there's tiny smut mentioned?

Though, trick question (*whispers* not) first (that probably none of you is gonna answer):

Do you like Poe because he's Poe..or you like him because Oscar Isaac is playing him?

P.s. I'm squealing at the pic..

Okay! Here's the chap.

Everyone's head whipped towards to the voice.

There she was -- Rika leaning against the door with a sardonic and sarcastic smile on her mouth.

The silence was deafening.

Everyone was speechless.

All except for Finn. "You did promise you'd get her back!" He says to her, nostrils flaring.

She snorted. "Excuse me?" Her eyes flashed. "Next time you want to ask someone out, try being the human shield!" She snaps right back, entirely ignoring the rest of the shocked room as she walked up to the centre of the room. She winced as she stepped on the foot that was shot.

Leia's keen eyes didn't miss her expression. "Rika." She says sternly. "How hurt were you?"

Rika pursed her lips for a second. Then cocked her head. "Rey shot me twice in the foot," she frowned, "and I took six for her in the shoulder, at least, that's what they told me."

Everyone was speechless, this wasn't the girl they knew. All her life in the Resistance she had been the girl that was known as fierce when she saw fit, and gentle when needed. Never violent or involved in combat.

"Okay," Leia says slowly. Then narrowed her eyes. "What exactly are you doing out of the infirmary?"

With that Rika broke out into a giant smile. "Oh," she says brightly, "someone," she smiled wider, "dropped this." She finishes somewhat mockingly.

"Oh look, she can steal too! What else are you good at?" Finn reprimands sarcastically as he took back the lightsaber.

Rika scoffs. "First of all, the lightsaber isn't yours."Then she smiles sweetly. "And at least, I don't have to be good at sanitation." With that, Finn turned bright red and Rika rolled her eyes.

"Wait," Han says. "You're in Sanitation kid?" He jabs a finger in his direction. Rika shrugs.

"He has the blueprints." She says, "but there's one thing he missed." Rika closed her eyes. "The Starkiller is fueled by the sun, it requires a thermal oscillator to sustain the energy."

"So, it will cause another chain of reaction?" Leia asks, interested in the newest piece of information

Rika shocked her head. "No, if the oscillator is destroyed, it will de-stabilize the weapon." By now, Rika was truly in her domain.

(Part One of the Chapter Begins: Song -- I Know What You Did Last Summer -- Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello)

"Well then, how exactly did you know the information, and how exactly do we know that it's genuine?" A new voice joins the conversation. Ria turned her head in the direction to see a pilot, a very specific pilot stepping up, disbelief clear in his eyes. "For all we know, you could be an imposter posing as her." He didn't finish the sentence, but Rika was still hurt by how unwilling he was to say her name.
