Two That Are One

Will

[I walked on the deck, as some rebels parted for me to stand. Approving grunts and all, I didn't even realize how popular I had become.]

Leia: I know what this looks like, the rebellion is at it's lowest point in history...

[As we made eye contact, a lump formed in my throat.]

Leia: But I tell you now to never give up hope.

[She said outstretching Luke's lightsaber back to me, as I had no choice but to take it.]

Leia: The First Order will fall, we just have to believe it can.

[Those behind me fell silent, hope was becoming short.]

Poe: I'll believe in that.

[Poe said standing next to her.]

Finn: Me too.

[As Finn followed, I clenched the lightsaber in my palm, before stepping in front as well.]

Rey: I believe in Leia, I believe in all of you...

[There expressions picked up as I started to talk.]

Rey: Kylo Ren has fallen, but I will not let his rage roll across the galaxy, do you agree?!

[As people started to nod, and grunt aloud.]

Rey: Then fight with every ounce of strength you have, and I promise you, we will win!

RS: Yeah!

[Cheers went up from everyone that time, as Poe and Finn held up my arms to make it bigger.]

Leia: I'm proud of you.

[Leia whispered in my ear, as I couldn't help but smile. Why was I so conflicted in the first place? The force chose me to be the guiding light, I can't falter in any way. As I started to pack up my stuff, Finn leaned in the doorway.]

Rey: What?

Finn: You left me on a cliffhanger.

[Right, that.]

Rey: I thought Poe needed you for base operations.

Finn: Yeah, but-

Poe: Finn let's go! Compounds won't free themselves!

[Poe said patting his shoulder as he left, I put my own hand there, using the other to carry my staff with the bag attached.]

Rey: I haven't forgotten my promise, I will tell you the rest.

Finn: When I come back?

Rey: When you come back.

[He gave me a look before starting to follow in Poe's direction.]

Finn: Be safe!

Rey: Always.

Leia: Ready?

Rey: For what?

Leia: You're training.

[As we landed on the new Rebel base, there was so much green I could hardly stand it.]

Rey: This planet is beautiful.

Leia: I agree, reminds me of simpler times.

Rey: Mm.

[Speaking to other rebels that passed up by, I followed Leia to a deeper part of the forest. As a small hut was present, I set my stuff down next to the small bed.]

Rey: What is this place?

Leia: It's a simple path, but will be our main course.

[I walked to where she was, seeing the clearing of trees and good places to break into stride. BB-8 beeped at me as I said.]
