Your POV

Your X-wing fighter jet had spun out of control and landed in the middle of the desert.....perfect, just perfect.  How is it that one of the best pilots in the rebellion gets stranded in the desert on some random planet!?  You decided that the best course of action would be to start walking and hope you find a town.

After a few hours of walking and finishing off your small water supply you decided that you were probably going in the wrong direction.  So, you went another direction.  This time you came to some kind of quick sand area and almost lost your blaster in one of them.  "What the hell!?"  Finally you decided to get the hell out of there.

Now you had been walking for a full day and had no water, no food and the wind was starting to pick up which was sending sand into your eyes.  Finally you gave up and sat in the sand and hoped that the winds would die down and that you'd survive the day.  Before you were completely covered in sand you heard what sounded like a cruiser.

Rey's POV

After saving the idiot droid that won't stop following me I decided to scope out my scavenging spot for tomorrow, I stuck my staff and BB8 in the netting on my cruiser and take off.  I'm speeding along when I see a figure being buried in the sand.  I speed over to check it out.  Once I dismount from my speeder I rush over and see a young woman/man lying in the sand. 

"Oh god, hey, hey wake up!"  I shake them until I start to see her/his eyes flutter open.  "Hey, are you ok?  How did you end up out here?"  I see her/him take a deep breath and I help them sit up slowly.  "My name is Rey, what's yours?"  "Y/f/n."  "Nice to meet you y/f/n, so how did you get here?"  "My X-wing spun out of control and crashed here, I'm not really sure how it happened."  "Wait, are you in the resistance?"  She/he nods and I gasp and smile in excitement, "I've never met a resistance fighter before, this is rather exciting," y/f/n coughs a bit and try's to clear her/his throat.

"Here, have some water."  I pull out my canteen and help her/him sit up and pour the water down her/his throat.  "Better?"  She/he nods, I help her/him stand and put her/him behind me on my speeder and take us back to my camp.

Your POV

I felt my eyelids slowly open up, I could make out that I was under some kind of shelter and covered in blankets.  I sat up slowly and saw the girl named Rey eating her portions.  "Hey," Rey spun around and smiled, "morning sleepy head, how are you feeling?"  "A bit tired and dried out but thanks to you I'm alive," I slowly get to my feet and walk over and sit beside Rey.  She pushes a canteen toward me, "drink, you need it."

I nod gratefully and take a greedy gulp, "thank you, really I can't thank you enough for saving me, without you I would have died out there because of my bad navigation skills."  She smiles and laughs, "it's really hard to navigate out here, most people can't do it so you're not alone, are you hungry?"  I nod and she passes me a roll, "are you sure?  Aren't these your portions for the day?"  "I'll get more won't I?  Go on eat up, you'll need your strength."  I smile gratefully and bite into the roll, just then I noticed that my goggles, gloves and hat were missing, "hey, have you seen my goggles?  Or my gloves?......or my hat?"  "Oh ya, sorry I took them off you when I put you to bed last night, you looked s not hot wearing all of that and, no offense but your face was quiet dirty."

I laugh, "well being caught in a sand storm will do that to a person, well thank you for making me more comfortable, you really are a wonderful person."  We just smile at each other and the way silently."  Once finished with our small meal we start chatting, I learn all about why she stays on Jakku and why she is a scavenger.  "So, y/f/n of the rebel alliance, how did you get into all that?"  I laugh and sigh, "wow, that is a very long story," "well, you're gunna come scavenging with me right?"  I nod in confusion, "well then, you'll have plenty of time to tell me all the thrilling details."  She smiles at me and I smile back and we make our way into the harsh desert.
