A vision of Amiel Ren with her ignited double-bladed crimson lightsaber fighting an unknown opponent dressed in black robes and wielding a green bladed lightsaber. Sparks from their clashing blades, showering both combatants.

A vision of Poe being mortally wounded as he lay on the ground covered in his own blood.

A vision of Kylo Ren walking down a dark corridor with his crimson bladed cross-guard lightsaber ignited, the image fades. Another visionof Kylo Ren, this time with his helmet off, holding his side as he lays on the ground. His face overcome with fear.

Rey is heard screaming.

Suddenly, we are in an ancient temple surrounded by hooded figures dressed in brown and white robes walking about.

A low crackling laugh slowly rises as the vision begins to crumble. A great darkness begins to take over the vision.

Snoke calls out in a low menacing tone, FIIIINNNN.

There is another voice that calls out under the sound of Finn's name being called. It is too faint to make out.

Finn's eyes jolts open. He is covered in cold sweat. He sits up wondering where he is. He is atop a pile of logs and twigs. He spots a droid staning next to him, striking two stones together in its hands.

The droid is H-8. An assassin/protocal/ butler droid. He is a tall bulky droid covered in armor. His chrome armor shining in the light of the morning sun. His eyes are a deep red. His head has similar features to that of a turtle. He speaks with a Southern accent and a slight his in the background of his vocabulator.

H-8 glances at Finn. He disappointedly comments on how Finn is still alive. He states that someone as incompitent as him can't even die properly. He continues to strike the two stones together.

Finn looks at H-8 confused. He asks him what he's doing.

H-8 tells Finn that he's trying to burn his body before it begins smellin up the place.

Finn tells H-8 that he isn't dead.

H-8 tells Finn that he will be soon once he gets the fire started.

Finn's eyes widen in terror. He reaches his hand out and demands that H-8 stops that.

The stones in H-8's fly out of his hand with haste.

Finn uses the Force to jump free of the makeshift funeral pyre that H-8 had made for him.

The Shadowy figure appears before them.

Finn points at H-8 and angrily tells the Shadow that HIS droid is trying to kill him.

The Shadow tell Finn that if H-8 had managed to kill him, then he would be of no use to him nor the rest of the galaxy.

H-8 addresses the Shadow as MASTER and tells him that he is a colder individual than he remembers.

The Shadow asks Finn if he's had that same dream again.

Finn nods. He tells him that this time he heard something else call out to him. It was as if it came from across a great distance.

The Shadow nods. He tells Finn in a solemn tone that Snoke is starting to take more of an interest in him. He tells Finn that they can use that to their advantage when the time comes.

Finn nervously tells him that he wouldn't call it advantageous. He knows what lengths Snoke would go to in order to get him. He doesn't want that type of attention.

The Shadow tells Finn that nevertheless Snoke has taken greater notice of him. He tells Finn that as long as Snoke has his sights set on him then the others can move about freely.

Finn nervously tells him that he doesn't know about that. He looks around for a moment. He asks the Shadow where the others are.

The Shadow tells him that they're in the temple waiting for him. He criticizes him on taking so long to recover from such superficial injuries.

Finn's eyes widen in anger. He tells the Shadow that H-8 nearly killed him.

H-8 gleefully tells Finn that he DID kill him.

Finn glares at H-8.

The Shadow tells Finn that he needs to learn to harness his power more efficiently. He tells him that he won't be afforded the time on the battlefield to recover at the same rate he was allowed here. He tells him that there are many who would kill to have his ability to heal.

Finn nods. He tells the Shadow that he understands.

The Shadow tells him that he is proud of the progress that he's made since they began his training.

Finn smiles.

H-8 interjects and says that Finn is still INCOMPETENT.

Finn glares at H-8.
