Rey's POV:

Rey's second day went really well. She is really sore from dancing so much but she doesn't mind. Her, Poe, and Finn were going to go to see a ballet called Swan Lake tonight and she was so excited. They only agreed because her birthday is coming up and they won't be here on her birthday. When she got to work she never saw Ben come in and she was a little bummed but she continued work anyway. She was so excited she needed to go for a walk during her break. Poe called her and she quickly answered.

"Hey Poe!"

"Hi...I have bad news."

"Can we talk about it after the ballet? I'm in a good mood."

"Yeah about the ballet... Finn and I can't make it."

"What? Why not?"

"Uh... we have a party we forgot about..."

"A party? You're going to miss this ballet that only happens once for a party?"

"We can do something else for your birthday..."

"My birthday is in 2 days Poe. And tonight is the only night that Swan Lake is performed." She was starting to walk into a park starting to get pissed.

"Well then just go to the ballet alone."

"Poe that would be awful."

"Get over it."

"You guys suck! You never hang out with me anymore!"

"Stop being jealous."

"I'm not jealous!" Rey tripped and almost fell but she was caught by Ben.

"I gotta go Poe." After her and Ben talked a little bit she realized she had to head back to work. She already told Maz she had to leave work early so she will just go to the ballet alone. She doesn't need Poe and Finn.

Rey left work and headed back home to change into a dress and to do her makeup. She grabbed the tickets off the table and headed to where the ballet was being performed. Half way there the car stopped. Out of all days it had to happen tonight. She noticed her gas tank was empty and the closest gas station was 10 minutes away. Good thing the ballet doesn't start for another 30 minutes. She was wearing heels so she took them off and started walking. People passing by kept giving her weird looks but she didn't care. She finally made it to the gas station and got gas to go put in her car. As she was walking back she noticed 2 guys following her but she didn't think much of it. At least until they caught up with her. They both walked beside her and she was starting to panic but she didn't want to let it show.

"What's a pretty girl like you doing out here at night?"

"None of your business."

"You need us to make sure you make it home safe?" He chuckled and it made her really nervous.

"You have a nice body. Do you dance?"

"Yes. Ballet. I can beat you with my Pointe shoes if I have to."

"Ooh ballet. I wonder what you look like in those things they wear.

"Leotards?"

"Yeah those. But you don't have to beat us with Pointe shoes. We don't bite." While this guy was talking the other stayed completely silent.

"Would you two please just leave me alone?"

"Oh come on. We haven't even started." He wrapped his arm around Rey's shoulders and she pushed them away and started walking faster. They wouldn't take no for an answer. They both started to pull her and touch her and she was ready to punch them. They cornered her at some dead end and she wasn't sure what to do. They looked a lot stronger than her. She punched the one that keeps talking in the face and kicked the other one in the shin. She made a run for it. She was running for a good 10 seconds before arms grabbed onto her and yanked her into an alley. Both the guys trapped her again. The one that stayed silent held her against the wall while the other spoke.
