Millennia's POV
"And again, I'm so sorry about all this," i sobbed.
"Millennia it's not your fault,"mom said rubbing my shoulder. "It's ours. I realize now that blocking out the force wasn't the way to go. I thought we would all could just be a normal family and not have to worry about this kind of stuff anymore. Now that we know the Knights of Ren are still alive, I feel bad that you all aren't prepared to fight them."
"It's ok mom," I said as we embraced.
"But I kind of an actually prepared," I chuckled thinking back to my 3 week training period.
"We'll need you," dad said ," after your mom and I have blocked out the force for ten years, we aren't as strong as we used to be."
"Now lets make a plan together, we have to get back Circe."

"Be careful!" Leia called after us. We all hopped on a small ship. I had felt through the force that the Knights of Ren were camping on the other side of the planet. Falcon was coming with us, he would be the one that goes to get Circe while we distract. I looked at the lightsaber I was holding in my hands. Leia gave me my Great Uncle Luke's green lightsaber. Mom and Dad sat close together on the ship. Nori waved goodbye to Falcon. And she gave him a peck on the cheek before he climbed up the ramp and sat down next to me.
"You really like her," I said trying to make conversation.
He just nodded his head still looking out the window.
"Falcon, I'm really sorry for trying to kill you that one day. I didn't mean it, honest. The dark side of the force was really circling me that day. I hope you'll forgive me."
Falcon looked up at me.
"Of course I will," he smiled. "You're my sister."
We hugged and I held him tight.

When we got there, we parked a few miles from the camp. Remembering the plan, I stepped out to see a few Knights of Ren talking around a fire pit. I activated my lightsaber, its green blade getting their attention.
"Give me back my sister!" I shouted.
"You think it's going to be that easy?" One voice said stepping out. It was Apex that stood in front of the rest.
"It's all 8 of us against you."
"I don't think so," I said with a sly smile.
Mom and Dad stepped out behind me holding their lightsabers. We all looked at each other and then we attacked. We narrowed down their numbers until there were about 3 left. Mom and Dad fought one each and I turned to see Apex. He swung at me and I blocked him.
"Why didn't you join me Millenia?!" He shouted as we fought. "I loved you!"
"You didn't love me!" I shouted starting to overpower him. "You used me, you manipulated, and deceived me!"
I knocked him to the ground and took his lightsaber both aimed towards him. I could kill him in an instant if I wanted to. Mom and Dad had already defeated the Last of the Knights of Ren. They looked towards me seeing wheat I would do. I spotted Falcon carrying Circe in the distance from my peripheral vision. Apex looked up at me with frightened eyes. The anger was building up inside me, but I took a deep breath as a peaceful river of light overflowed me. I didn't have the heart to kill Apex. I deactivated both lightsabers.
"Never return," I said in a serious tone. "If I ever see you near me or my family again, your outcome won't be the same as yours today."
Apex fearing me, got up and ran away. I looked towards my parents and hugged them.
"Thank you," I whispered.

Millennias POV
I watched outside my window as Circe and Nalu , Finns son, played together. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned around to see Falcon. I smiled.
"Want to go diving with Nori and I?" He asked.
"Yeah I'll be right out," I smiled.
I thought about how happy I was to have the whole family move in our beach home. Leia, Poe, Rose, all of them were great company to have around, even Nori had been nicer to me, when she wasn't swooning over Falcon. I heard a ship landing and I ran outside to see Noris older brother and Poes son, Zander. He ran out to me and we kissed.
"Hi beautiful," he said as we pulled away.
"Hi," I blushed.
We had met a month and a half ago when he got back from flight school.
"Want to go snorkeling with us?" I asked.
"Yeah babe, just let me get ready first."
"Ok," I said as he ran into the house. Circe looked up at me with her brown eyes as I picked her up.
"Sissie!" She smiled as she leaned her head on my chest. I smiled and looked at the horizon, just as my Great Uncle Luke once did and wondered what adventures would await me next......
