Long for the Return (Reylo FanFic)

Chapter 10

REY'S POV:

I wake up hoping to feel the soft bed in the falcon but my fingers feel something different. I open my eyes to be laying on grass, soft leaves, and feathers. At first I think it's a dream so I try to drift back to sleep. "How do you feel?" A voice asks.

I widen my eyes in alarm, "Who's there? Who are you?!" I ask. I stay laying down cause I feel like if I move, something will kill me.

I gasp as I see the person in front of me. It's a Wookiee, he has gray and brown hair and looks kind of old. "How do you feel?" He asks. 

"Rested and- wait, you can talk like me? How?" 

He sits down in front of me, " I used to be the healer for the Wookiee village that lived here. My name Chuka, yours is?" 

"Rey." 

"Ah... I thought so since you are the last of your kind. May I say you are the Guardian of the Jedi."

 I'm still concerned that he may harm me and I don't want to expose to someone I just met,  "How long have been out for and how can I trust you?" 

"For 4 days." 

I widen my eyes in alarm. "That long?"  

"You see I'm 740 years old. During the Clone Wars, I helped the republic fight against the Sith. I healed many. I am not a Jedi or anything, but I know the force. And I know the force is very strong with you. And I also know you are looking for someone shall I say, Benjamin Solo. So yes, you can trust me."

I flinch. How does he know so much about me? I try to sit up but this incredible pain shots through the left side of my shoulder. I lay back down with a groan. 

"I wouldn't try to sit up if I were you, that Nexu cut you up real good. Your lucky I saved you, if not you'd bleed to death and that cut will scar up real good." 

"How do you know so much about me?" 

"You see when your a healer you must know everything like how to tell if a dream is a vision of the future, the past, or a just a dream. Omens come and go all the time. You also must learn about different languages. You would also have to learn about what herbs should be used in healing, also the Jedi and Sith must be taught to you as well so you don't get caught up in between there war." 

I yawn in tiredness. "You seem tired, sleep today tomorrow I'll see how you feel, and maybe, you can stand up." I don't say anything but just simply nod my head. Then, I let sleep consume me.

I wake up with the sun shining in my eyes. What time is it? Surely it noon, I think. I look around the room. It's a platform in a tree but probably lower to the ground cause injured people wouldn't be able to climb up a tree. 

That Nexu cut you up real good, Chuka's words echo in my mind. I turn my head to see that my shoulder is completely bandaged. 

Chuka walks in as if he heard me and he covered from head to toe with grim, "Ah your awake! I thought you'd be, " he says while wiping his hands on a rag, "I got to say, that's one ship you got. What happened that thing anyway."

 I begin to explain what happened, but something comes to mind. 

Wait! Where's BB-8?!

I sit up fast and pain shoots through my body. I grit my teeth together to ignore the pain. I look around to see if he's here, but there's no sign of him. "Where is he?" I ask Chuka. 

"Where's who? The little droid? Orange Spots?" 

"Yes that one, where is he and he also has a name?!" He chuckles, "Don't worry he's here I'll get him, and he was helping me fix up your ship."He gets up and walks outside. After a few seconds, he walks in with BB-8 behind.

He beeps happily and starts yakking off about what happened. And I listen to his story.

After an hour or two of talking to BB-8, Chuka sit next to me on the bed. "I'm going to change your bandage, is that alright?" He asks. 

"Sure." He starts undoing the bandage, he does it lightly so it wouldn't hurt me.

After he takes off the bandage, he says he's going to roll my arm to loosen it up from being stiff cause of the bandage. "Want to look?" he asks me. I turn my head to see a huge 3 scratches. The haven't completely healed into scars, but it's amazing to look at. 

I smile, "Now a have a story to tell my daughter." I say. 

He chuckles, "Yup, it's looks like doesn't need bandages no more but here." He gets up and hands me a bag. 

I look inside to see a bunch of medic stuff, "What's this for?" I ask. 

"That's for you. The bandages is for the scratches when you go on trips and you don't want to infect it. There is also Neosporin in there to put on the scratches.  Also, there is herbs for fevers and also pregnancy stuff in there. Years ago we had to deal with many children so, yes, I know what to medicine to give to females." 

I smile, "Thank you, but wait, if your giving this to me-" 

"That means you can leave," He finishes my sentence, "your scratches are good enough to heal by yourself and your also healthy enough, and the child is fine." I get up from the bed to leave. "I'll escort you to your ship if that's ok?" 

"Sure."  

As we walk to the ship BB-8 rolls happily with us. When we reached the ship, I stand there in shock. Every single piece of the ship if cleaned/fixed. "Wow." That's all I say. 

As I start climbing the ship, Chuka says my name. "Yes Chuka?" I ask. 

"Give my greeting to Chewie please." 

I nod my head, "Of course." 

As I enter the ship, I put in the coordinates of where we need to go. "Let's hope those we don't run into those Tie Fighters again," I say to BB-8. 

Meep- wop- merr.

I laugh. We jump into hyperspace and put the ship in auto pilot. It'll take 2 days to get there so mine as well sit back and relax.
