Long for the Return (Reylo FanFic)

Chapter 7

I turn around to see a little girl between the age 8 through 10. Her hair is in two buns, side to side, with two braids on each side leading to the buns. She is wearing black leggings with sandy- gray arm wraps. She's also wearing a gray sleeveless shirt with a hood. 

"Did you say 'mom'?" I ask. I barely realized by throat is dry, making my voice raspy. 

"I'm Kira." she says with a friendly, shy smile. "This may sound weird but... I come from the future." 

I chuckle, "That's not weird I've met my grandfather who is like... centuries old." 

She laughs, "Your funny Mom!"

My smile drops, "If your calling me mom, " I think for a second, " does that mean your my-" 

"Daughter, yes." She finishes my sentence. 

She takes a step closer, making it only a it only a foot away from each other. I realize how short she is. Her height only reaches to my stomach. She surprises me by taking my hand gesturing me to kneel in front of her. I take a closer look to see a dimple near the left side of her lips. Also, she has cute light colored freckles from her cheek to her other cheek. 

Her face goes serious, as if she's concerned. "I've been meaning to talk to you." She says. 

"About what?" I ask. 

She takes a deep breath. "You may not be able to have me," she says, "when Dad saved your life, not only he saved you but he gave me to you, creating life. Like how your dyad is able to have power like life itself." My eyes open wide, I'm about to say something but she continues, " You will get Dad back, but when you do... " she looks down with sadness in her eyes, "you may lose me." 

"How?" I ask. My voice is soft with concern. 

"People are looking for you, meaning to kill you, some people believe the Jedi are evil, just creating more war instead of being the peace keepers they are...  There's one more person out there who is force sensitive. He is no Jedi, leader, or anybody like that, he just wants misery for every one after what his parents did to him." 

"What did his parents do to him?" 

"No one knows. That why you must break him, you mustn't let him get to you, to your feeling. That's what he does to people, he looks for your fears, happiness and he uses that against you." 

I see a tear running down her cheek in which breaks my heart. She's my daughter and if she's crying, I must comfort her since I'm her  mom. "Hey, " I say gently, "don't cry, I'm here." 

"I know, but if you don't save us, we don't become your future. We'll just be like one of your thoughts hoping will happen, but never does. It just becomes an imagination. "

Before I know it, she hugs me tightly. At this point I don't know what to do, but I do know is that all I can do is hug her back. We hug for a couple minutes knowing this may be the last time we see each other ever again. We finally break apart to see Kira's tears are gone. "I hope this will be enough information, " she says, "I hope to see you again Mom." 

I give her a smile to show my thanks. "Thank you Kira, it was enough." 

She looks at me with smile, "May the force be with you." 

Before I can say it back, she bows her head and disappears. I take a step forward to take in what just happened. "Oh my god, " I say to myself, " I'm pregnant." I put my hand on my stomach to feel it, and sure enough I feel a slight presence. I smile knowing my future daughter is here with me and to guide me through this journey. 

"REY! Where are you?!"
