A horrible feeling took over Rey's chest and she woke up breathing harder. The Force. Something was disturbing it.
It was still night and she fell asleep on Ben's chest. He was awake too and in his eyes her own feelings were mirrored but amplified by more sadness. He knew what was going on, he felt it too.
'Leia...' Rey whispered.
Something was happening to her. She wasn't dead but she was slowly dying by each heartbeat.
Ben's eyes were full of pain. He hasn't seen his mother in years and he missed her more than anyone else.
'I need to see her,' he said with a convinced tone. She couldn't protest, Leia was his mother and he had to know what was going on. He wasn't loyal to the Final Order but she couldnt bring him in the middle of the Resistance base either. Things could go extremely bad.
'Ben-'
'I am not going back to the Order. I swear.'
He took her hand and she could feel his sadness even more powerful.
'We are going to defeat the Emperor together and I would rather die than go back to the Order.'
Even in that moment the girl couldnt help but feel happy. He was back. Ben Solo was back for good.
She nodded and they jumped in their ships. Rey took the lead and flew right away to Endor.
Ben's p.o.v.
His mind wasn't clear and he fought his own tears. Leia was dying and it had to be connected with Palpatine somehow. He was not going to let her die. He couldnt bear it, it overwhelmed him.
Ben and Rey landed on the planet that he recognized as Endor. He was already prepared for people to attack him so when he jumped out of the ship someone pressed him against it with power. He remembered the guy's name: Poe. He noticed Finn behind him and plenty of other people gathering around.
'What are you doing here?' Poe spoke with anger.
'No! Poe, don't!'
Someone yelled from the crowd and Rey managed to run to them and pull him away from Ben.
'What is going on? Did you hit your head and decide to bring him here?'
Rey stood between them and faced her friend.
'It is alright! He is not Kylo Ren anymore.'
Her last words were shouted so people could hear her. Whispers spread in the valley they were yet no one seemed to argue with the girl. They all respected her.
'Not anymore,' she continued and looked at Poe. 'We are here for Leia.'
'Wait a sec. Why were you with him in the first place?' Finn asked and Ben noticed that Rey simply ignored him. She turned around and caught his hand before rushing to the place she knew his mother was. His heart ached more by each step not knowing what he will find. Having no idea if she was going to be alive...
Then they walked into a chamber and on the bed he saw Leia. She looked even smaller and didn't radiate power as usually. But she was breathing.
Ben stepped closer, trying not to stumble. Poe was at the door, he could sense that, and Rey stopped him. He didn't care.
The boy touched his mother's hand as he tried to keep his tears from falling.
'I am sorry,' he murmured. 'For everything.'
He knew just what he had to do. He had known for a while but haven't felt prepared. Now, he had no other choice.
A small hand sat on his shoulder and he slowly crouched on his legs. Rey did the same and he inhaled her floral smell deeply. She was the only thing that kept him sane at that moment.
'Leia knew,' she spoke in a low and shaky voice. 'That you were going to come back. Just like I did.'
A tear rolled on his cheek as he looked at the girl. Her face was covered by tears.
'We have to-'
Rey nodded. 'I know.'
