I had no idea why I wanted to stop the destruction of another resistance base. I don't understand. I wanted to feel nothing for my mother but a part of me, deep down, still felt merciful. Truthfully, she was my mother and I always loved her. "You shouldn't think these things. You're showing weakness! Weak minded fool!" The little voice yelled in my head. It was right. I couldn't let that pull me to the light.

I began to feel a great pain. This distracted me from my thoughts but it also confused me greatly. I already felt pain but this was different. It wasn't my pain. It was hers. Something was hurting her deep deep down.

Kya walked back in the ship and I wondered what the hell went on in there. I could feel great pain and confusion from her. I could see it in her face. She looked so distraught. So confused. "What happened?" I asked while there wasn't a trooper in sight. She didn't say anything. I looked into her eyes to see a whole new pain. It was different. This was way different. "What's wromg? What happened?" I asked, in full panic mode. I've never felt her like this, nor have I seen her this distraught. I could tell she was holding back everything in her power to break down right there. The tension built up in her. I could feel it. "Please, talk to me" I told her as I brought her to my small chambers. She still didn't say anything. She stayed silent for a while. "I don't have a biological father" She barely whispered.

"What- you- what?!" I mumbled in complete aloof. "And Alexia, she's not my sister" her voice broke when she said that. "I don't understand..." I sat next to her. So she's like my grandfather? Does she wield the same power? I've always felt a different sense of power with her. Could that be possible? Could she be the next chosen one? "So you're-" She cut me off. "I think so" She spoke as tears started to form in her eyes. I wasn't sure how to feel about all of this. It was a lot to take in. "What about Alexia? Where does she come from? Did she tell you anything?" She shook her head. I don't understand.

A heard a knock on the door. I went outside into the hall. "What is it, trooper?" I asked. "Sir, what do we do now?" He asked. "We need to start searching nearby planets. Destroy anything that gets in the way. We will find those fugitives." I spoke coldly. "Yes, sir" He spoke before walking back to front of the ship to give orders.

We searched 5 of the closest planets and nothing. This infuriated me. We needed the map. There was no trace of it at the base. They must of destroyed any archives on it and kept it hidden away. My mother was smarter then to have any archives of it. I ordered that we landed on the planet Naboo. Maybe being in a beautiful planet would refresh Kya's mind.

"We're here, come with me" I ordered Kya to follow me. She obeyed but I coukd tell her mind was elsewhere. We both walked outside and looked at the beautiful site of the planet. She was astonished from the beautiful site.shocked beautiful" She whispered. We walked around but she still seemed distraught. "I was living a lie, Ren" She spoke. I could hear the anger in her voice. "It was all a fucking lie" She spoke coldly. Before we walked any further, I pulled her into an embrace. It shocked her but then she hugged me tight. She buried herself in my arms. I could feel her falling apart and trying to build herself up again. My heart was beating fast and I just held her. I held her as she fell apart in my arms.
