Rey.

[I gasped awake, realizing I was in a tube on Crait. Upset, I kicked up some salt with my foot.]

Rey: That idiot!...

[A little dizzy, I started to stumble back, before hearing shots and commotion. Climbing the hill I was on, the rebels were trapped in the compound, as speeders were making their assault. The Millenium Falcon flew close to me. Chewie growled to get in, as I did, helping to fend off the tie fighters. More flew after us.]

Rey: Chewie! Peel off from the battle!

[I said, shoving Ben and my feelings, to the back of my mind. I have a responsibility, I have to protect the light, no matter what becomes of me.]

Rey: Draw them away from the speeders!

[He growled in agreement, as we flew far away from the rebels, going for a ride in a tight salt ravine. The gun was starting to take damage as I yelled.]

Rey: Chewie!

[Growling again, he continued to fly, weaving in and out of the crisscrossing rock crystals. I grunted as sparks flew up, and some smoke covered my face. As we finally broke through, we flew above the First Order forces. As I gasped feeling Ben in the force.]

Ben...

Rey-

[It was cut short because I felt him punched out, as I grit my teeth. Chewie growled for my attention, as I came into the cockpit.]

Rey: What is it?

Poe: Does anybody copy! There are rocks blocking our path! We need help!

[Chewie flew me close to the area, as I hopped out, sliding down the salt to the blockage. Rocks covered every inch of it, big ones too, as I outstretched my hand. And took deep breaths...

Inhales

Exhales

Inhales...

Snatching my eyes open, I saw Ben, as Hux kicked him into a ship.]

Hux: Don't execute him, not yet, he'll be an example.

Exhales

Be safe, Rey...

I love you.

[As the door closed.]

Inhales...

[I blinked up again to see the rocks floating, Finn and Poe in complete awe, as I stifled my whimper. I floated the rocks to the side, creating a straight path for them to walk, as Finn hugged me hard. Poe wasn't far behind as I hugged them back.]

Leia: Rey.

[She clasped my right hand, as another soldier wrapped up my left wrist properly.]

Leia: Talk to me.

Rey: The resistance is small, there isn't much hope...

Leia: There is plenty of hope.

[As I didn't even realize I was crying, she pulled my right into her own palms.]

Leia: But what is really tearing you apart Rey?

[I whimpered slightly, as I shook my head.]

Rey: I can't...

Leia: You can, tell me.

[Looking up at her, I uttered it out.]

Rey: You're son is going to be executed, Ben Solo, is going to die.
