Three Months Later

*Ben POV*
I sat with my head in my hands in the isolated cell. I'm weak and sad. My love is looking for me and she won't find me. She's three months pregnant now and I still have a small hope that she'll find me, though the chance is very slim.

I should be kept this way. I should be kept isolated from everyone. I should just die alone and never come into the presence of anyone else.

"Ben."

"Don't call me Ben. There's only one person who can call me that."

Luke walked in and sat next to. He put his arm around me. I jumped back farther into the corner of the room.

"Don't touch me!" I spat.

"Ben, you can't be this way forever. Join us."

"I'll make my decision when she's here in front of me. And stop calling me Ben."

"You know we won't let you see her. We brought you to your family and your home."

"My family is back on that base! I should be there now! Making sure she's okay!" I screamed at him.

Luke looked at me calmly.

"This anger and hate Ben. Where does it come from?"

"Me being away from the person I love and our child. And from you calling me that fucking name!"

Luke nodded.

"I know. But please, Ben..."

"DON'T. CALL. ME. BEN!!!" 

I slammed my fists against the hard stone wall, screaming curse words at no one in particular. When I finally calmed down I realized I was crying. Shaky breaths left my lips. I could feel Luke staring at me.

"I know you miss her, but we can't let the both of you be together. We need you on our side. We know about your pull towards the light. Join us and all your hurt will be gone."

"For the last time uncle, I will not join you."

"What if I told you, you could get her back?"

I paused. It was silent, I knew he was still there.

"What do you mean."

"If you join us, we will go back and use you to bring her back to the light."

"I will not deceive her. You can forget it. You'll have to kill me first."

Luke sighed.

"I'll leave you to think about it."

He said, the door closed behind him. I sat down drowning in my sorrows once again.

*Darth Niksu POV*
I stood in the main room, supervising the cameras.

"We will search the whole entire galaxy to find him. Your lives depend on it." I ordered.

"I think you should take a break. I'll take it from here." Hux said, landing a hand on my shoulder.

I shrugged it off.

"If they find him I want to be there." I said.

"They will find him, but you need to go for your check up. Didn't you tell me morning sickness is getting worse?"

I sighed. It was true. My morning sickness had gotten worse since Ben's disappearance. I suspected that it came from stress. Stress from him not being here.

"Fine. I'll leave, but please, alert me as soon as you find him."

Hux placed both hands on my shoulders.

"Rey, if we don't find him..."

"We will. We will find him and bring him home."

Hux sighed and let me go. I left the main room and headed for the check up room. A droid greeted me and led me towards a room.

"Please, undress then lay down, Darth Niksu." The droid said.

I did as the droid said and stepped into a paper smock. I laid down looking at the bright light above me.

"Please drink this. It will put you to sleep for awhile." The droid said handing me a small cup.

I nodded a thank you and drank. I sighed as the drugs kicked in and I was knocked out cold.

I was back on the Starkiller base again, leaning down beside to Finn. I scowled at his unconscious figure. Then Ben appeared. I hugged him. It was nice to see him in my dreams, I would hug him, or kiss him every time I saw him.

"Rey..."

"Don't wake me up." I whispered.

"Rey, help me...show me the light again."

I stepped back. The light?

"What are you talking about Ben?"

Then Ben started...changing. His clothes became a tan color, his ignited saber a brilliant green, the darkness in his eyes replaced with soft chocolate.

"I'll show you the force Rey. I'll bring you back."

"Ben stop. Your scaring me."

He stepped closer placing a hand on my shoulder. He smiled warmly. The sky illuminated to a brilliant blue, the snow melted and was replaced with dark green grass.

"Rey, your seeing the dark in everything, you need to be able to see the light. Save me and together we will be light."

His hand vibrated on my shoulder. Then my clothes turned back to what they were before, my hair back in there three buns.

"No, leave me alone. Stop it, whatever your doing."

"Come with me Rey. Come back to the light."

"No."

"Look at all the beauty that you can see with the light."

"No! Your not Ben! Wake me up!" I fell to the ground pulling up grass and dirt clogs as imaginary Ben looked down at me, his face filled with pity.

"Please, come to the light with me Rey, raise our baby, for the better."

He stepped closer, but inched back, my head made contact with a tree and I woke up again, breathing heavily.

"Is everything alright, Ms. Niksu?"

"Y-yes, I'm fine."

"Well, I have good news and bad news, but it depends on the way you look at it."

"What? What's going on?"

"Well your baby, it's  getting much larger."

"What does that mean?"

"It means, that you may have the baby much earlier than expected...or...."

"Or what! Is it going to die?!"

The droid shook her head.

"It appears that you may be having...twins."

Twins?!
