I shoot at the crystals hanging in front of us blocking our way. We got out of the crystal cave, I see us going up and feel the Falcon scrap the side of the walls. I try to not have the gun scrap against the walls but it hits on of the crystals, making some thing come out and I'm blinded by smoke and sparks as I cover my face screaming.

I finally see us come out of the crystals, I fixed the thing that came out making the smoke and I feel a familiar presence under us, "Luke." I whispered as look ahead of me. I got up quickly walked towards the cockpit. As I stood by R2, "If the beacon's right beneath us, they've gotta be somewhere." I said sitting behind looking out for a life form.

I turned around to R2, "Just keep scanning." I said turning back around as we swept around to spot something. The porg starts to make noises making me turn quickly and spot some critters coming out of a whole. "I see them! Chewie, right there!" I shouted pointing to where they're are.

"Chewie, land here." I said quickly running to the opened ramp and jumping down to see a bunch of rocks and Rey beside me. I panted as we looked at each other then straight at the rock and I realized something. "Lifting rocks, final lesson." I spoke to her and turning to face her.

"Just breath and concentrate, I'm right here." I spoke softly as Rey nodded and I grabbed a hold of her hand making her sigh in relief. We turned to the rocks as we kept our hand conjoined, lifted our hands towards the rocks. I breathed in, closing my eyes as I feel the Force around us.

I opened my eyes panting as I hear Rey panting beside me seeing the rocks in the air. I look at Rey as she looked at me in shock, making me smile at her. I see them scattered around us making me breath heavily and smile widely.

I look straight to see two people one being a familiar person and Finn, He begins to run towards us making me move the rocks out of the way.

I smiled in relief as the rocks landed on either side of us making a path as we walked forward. Finn engulfs us in a hug making me hug both of them tightly and I squeezed my eyes closed. I wince as I feel his grip get tighter around my bruised side.

We pulled away from each other and guided the others into the Falcon. They scurried into the Falcon as I stood by the ramp, making sure they're in. I was about to walk in, until I felt Luke's life force fading making me look at Leia who was behind me. I felt a calm sensation run over me as I gasped holding onto my chest.

Leia walked in the Falcon letting me have a moment and I walked up standing by the switch to close the ramp. I feel the tug and I looked down to see Kylo making my heart stop. We looked at each other before I pushed the switch to close the ramp. As I close it, I jumped at the sound of it closing.

I look around as see them hug each other and I spot BB-8, "Hey buddy, you miss me?" I said crouching down as he chirps happily leaning forward showing me his new antenna making me laugh and nod. "It looks nice, better that that old one." I said touching as he agrees to it.

I see him look up and I looked up and see the familiar man, "Athalia?" He said as I stood up curious on why he looks familiar. "Yeah, sorry but it's like I've seen you before." I said motioning towards him as he stares at me.

"Yeah we used to go to a training for piloting." He said as I looked as him wide eyes, "Oh my gods! Dameron!" I shouted as I pulled him into a tight hug and pulled away. "Holy kriff, you've grown!" I said smiling as I look over him as he does the same.

I spot Leia then calmed down, "Hey, we'll talk later yeah?" I asked patting his shoulder as he nods, I walked away and sat down beside her. She turned to look at me as I did the same, "I felt him, Leia, He's gone." I said as she looked at me as I continued, "But it wasn't sadness or pain, It was peace and purpose." I spoke softly, looking at her.

"I felt it, too" She said looking down at her hands as I glanced down at my hands then back at her. "How exactly do we build a Rebellion from this?" I spoke as I held the two pieces in each hand as she places her hand on mine. "We have everything we need." She said as I smiled at her as she does the same.

I get up to head to the room I was living in before the Falcon was stolen from us. I pushed in the code and the door slide open seeing the room as it was before. I sighed sadly walked around then stopped at the desk I have in here.

I pulled the string of the lamp as it lit up the whole room. I see the mess I left on it I see a picture of Ben and I in our robes hugging. It was before I left Naboo with Luke and Ben to his Jedi temple and began my training.

I smiled tearfully as I picked up the picture and spot one under making me gasp as I place the picture. It was Han, Chewie and I, I remember forcing Han to be in the picture seeing him grumble. I had ordered him to smile as Chewie hugged us and seeing the flash.

I chuckled at the memory, as I pulled the picture of us out of my pocket setting in down on the desk next to the pictures. I smiled seeing us happy before it all fell. I heard knocks on the door, "Hey Lia, we're here." I heard Rey outside as I spoke back, "Alright I'll be out there." I turned towards my old small closet.

I pulled off my leather jacket and leaving it on a rack then pulled off my torn shirt and pants. I brushed my hair leaving it down then put on a tight tan short sleeved shirt, black pants then my boots. I left my jacket behind as the door slid open and closing behind me as I step out.

I walk towards the ramp and down seeing them go into an old base. I walked up to Leia as I looked around see the familiar forest, "Are we on Yavin 4?" I asked smiling and she nodded as I sighed looking around the planet I missed dearly.

It was a couple years later seeing us grow more and more. Rey and I training harder and harder each day as Leia teaches us. I walked into the forest by myself as I look around, I make myself levitate but I don't cross my legs like Rey normally does I just flip around feeling the Force flow through me.

I continue to flip around in the air as I feel a presence near me, making me stop. I slowly let myself fall to the floor and turned around seeing Kylo. I straightened my back knowing he's not really here.

"What is it Kylo?" I asked putting my hands on my belt as he stared at me. "You look beautiful." He said looking at me up and down making me smirk at him as I shrugged my shoulders. "I know, don't have to remind me."I said as I levitated back into the doing the same as rocks circled around me.

"How'd you learn to do that?" He asked as feeling him step closer, I opened my eyes as I stopped to look down at him. "I taught myself." I said letting myself fall then hit the ground in a crouch position and stood up. I looked at him as I stepped in front of him as he looked down at me.

"Goodbye Kylo." I spoke softly as he disappeared from in front of me as I walked back to the base to talk to Leia as I looked back to the spot to where he was standing then back around.
