Poe's POV:

Once the meeting with Finn is over the Resistance fleet and I start preparing for our mission. I ran to my brand new black-marked X-wing since my old one got destroyed in Jakku and start adjusting the mechanics. Crew members all around me fueling their ships. Ground control starts to direct the ship that are ready to take-off into formation. BB-8 rolls to my new ship and gets pulled into it, prepared to go to our mission.

I look around me and suddenly notice Finn walking up to me wearing my old jacket and as he passes me I slap his shoulder in encouragement and get into my ship smiling to myself. If everything goes to plan there is nothing to worry about. We are all counting on Finn, Han, and Chewie for this one.

Ever since I can remember I've always wanted to be a pilot, just like my mother. She is the one who taught me how to fly. My parents were part of the alliance to restore the Republic, which was a Resistance movement. They even fought in the battle of Endor. They were both very busy most of the time but the memories I have of them when they were around were the best. My mother died when I was around 8 years old it was heartbreaking to me and after her death, I stopped hearing about her heroic stories but they always stayed with me

After my mother's death years passed and I turned into a teenager and joined the Spice Runners of Kimiji which was a smuggling gang and as I grew up I realized the mistake I made by joining them since I was putting my life at too much risk. I guess this was my way of rebelling as a child and trying to find where I truly belong, but later on, I followed my parent's footsteps and joined the New Republic as a pilot.

I was finally happy I was doing what I always dreamed of which was being a pilot. But after a series of events with the New Republic and them not taking action towards the First Order who was growing its power I decided to leave and join the Resistance. I couldn't just sit back and watch how the First Order took over the galaxy and not be able to do anything about it. I could even say that was the best decision I've made my whole life.

When we receive news that the Millennium Falcon made it into Ilum, General Organa gave us the order to take off. I start the engine of my X-wing getting ready so we can get there time to destroy that oscillator and save everyone back in the base. The mission is simple if it wasn't because of the shields but that is Finn's job. I start taking flight the whole fleet of X-wings following behind me.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to operation D.T.O which stands for destroy that oscillator." I say through the intercom system and chuckle to myself knowing that the other pilots can hear me. "In the count of 3 jump into lightspeed and head to Ilum. We have some things to blow up."

"At your order Poe." Snap says through the intercom and I start flipping switched preparing to jump.

"1... 2... 3!" I yell through the intercom and turn on the lightspeed, my body being pulled back by the high speed I am going in. I'm never going yo get tired of this.

"Black Leader, go to sub-lights. On your call." One of the admirals at the Resistance base indicates through the communication system. They did it. They managed to lower their shields.

"Roger, base." I reply to the admiral and turn on my intercom to the other pilots. "Red squad, blue squad, take my lead." I say and the first one to acknowledge my order is Nien Nunb who just confirms he got the order.

"Dropping out of lightspeed." Yolo Ziff replies and I turn off the lightspeed my X-wing going much slower.

I look up and notice the huge planet in front of me. So this is Starkiller Base. We rush into the atmosphere and enter the planet and the first thing I look for is the oscillator noticing the hexagonal structure in the distance.
