In Battle With Time (Reylo Fanfiction) Sequel To Trust The Stars #TheWattys2016

We meet again

Ben's POV:

We didn't want to wait any longer, so we didn't go back home that day, just went to the airport and took one x-wing. The fastest way to reach my mother at the moment is by plane. Yes, we are on the same planet, but she is on the other side, and it takes time to get there. Ok, not so much when you have a plane, then it takes around five minutes.

She lives and works on the Government side. That is the place where all the diplomatic buildings take place, where all the plans and consultations are discussed. The smartest people work there, the pilots and the engineers. We, however are on the opposite part, where is the school for force sensitive children and of course, the Jedi Temple. The most holly place, where all the young padawans go to meditate and learn the history of the force and their ancestors.

Surprisingly, there are a lot of people running on the airport. Some of them are approaching the Resistance building, but some of them are going to their airplanes. It is a sight I almost forgot, is been two years since I last landed my foot here. Rey and I never wanted to be part of the government, so we stayed in the place where we both belonged, where we felt at home.

Just as we landed, few resistance members, that looked more like a security, exited the building. In the middle stood the short, lovely woman that carries all of this on her ribs. She looks broken, just like Rey and me.

"She must have heard..." Rey barely mumbled. I nod and ran towards my mother. She greeted me with her arms wildly open, leaving place for Rey, who instantly filled the free space. Our hug is long and speechless, only our emotions express our words. We are all force sensitive and can communicate without words, my mother can feel me, I can feel Rey and my mother, so this moment got even more emotional. I felt the sorrow that they both sent me, and I sent them the distress I felt.

We all cried, and didn't care at all what the others thought. It is not their problem, but I felt their presence too, their stare, their... curiosity about the situation.

"My...children...don't worry we will find them...both." My mother said, her face watery from the tears.

"But...mother I can't feel her." Rey said suddenly, and it sent me chills down my spine. I can only feel my daughter's presence, but Rey can feel her existing and wellbeing.

"No, Rey it will come to you, when you are not scared." Mom left me and took both Rey's cheeks in her warm hands. Caressing them, motherly. She is the only mother Rey knew, whenever I ask about her parents, I already know the answer, she doesn't remember them. They left her to train with Luke, and that was it, no more information.

"I believe you, but we must react fast, every second we waste, we put our daughter in danger." My wife said.

"Then, we shall go inside, and discuss this important matters with all the advisors and pilots." Just as mom mentioned pilots, the Millennium Falcon placed itself on the ground. Two friends came out, running towards us. I can't believe my once enemies, are now my friends. Life is so...surprisingly strange.

"We came, as soon as we heard." Finn added in hoarse tone. He took a breath and placed his right hand on Rey's arm. "I am so sorry." His tone showed his real concern, not leaving Rey's sight. If I haven't known him longer, I would have been jealous. Ok, I was, once. When he cried over Rey in the forest battle on the Star Killer Base. But, now it is different, things have changed.

"Poe, Finn, it is nice to have you too, come let's proceed inside. It is getting chilly." We all signed and followed her in the base. The halls are new and renovated, it is a nice sight, modern. People greeted us as we walked further. They all heard about the academy, bad news travel too fast. We just nod, not really in the mood to talk.

The room we entered is simple, with one huge glass table and few chairs around it. The droids are already in there. R2-D2, C3PO and of course BB-8, who came rolling towards Rey, sadly beeping. His head low. Rey fell on her knees and hugged his small round body. It is strange to have a robot with so much emotion, BB-8 is more like a friend or a child. Dorothylla loves playing with him, and he loves it too.

We assembled slowly around the table. General Leia on the main seat, next to her I and next to me Rey. I took her small hand into mine under the glass, giving her the insurance we both need. BB-8 rolled next to us and beeped, at first I didn't recognize what he was talking, but then it all become clear.

"I have a massage, it seems like they are in danger!" He said once again...

Hi guys! Hope you are doing well. Here comes the new chapter.

Yup, it has a cliffhanger... :D

What do you think is the massage about? Are Dorothylla and Luke really in danger? Tell me your thoughts down in the comments, I would love to hear your opinions.

Talk to you soon! Bye <3
