I groaned from the pain in my chest "Adrian!" I heard Vylad yell then he wrapped my arm around his neck and helped me stand up "Wait" I told him so I limped to Sarah after I picked up one half of my Lightsaber and picked up the other half of my Lightsaber then limped back to Vylad and he helped me out of here and through the portal and I just couldn't believe I wasn't ready to save Dad... but he saved me... I just met Dad for the first time... Vylad and I then went through the portal and we left the wolf tribe ruins and Vylad got me on my horse and he rode it with me behind him so he changed out of his Shadow Knight form back to his original form and I rested my head against his back from the pain from getting hit so hard with my broken Lightsaber "You alright Adrian?!" Vylad called over as he had my horse running fast as I was holding onto him "I guess.." I replied "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!?" Vylad yelled and I leaned away from his back a little "I..I-I thought-" I stuttered "YOU COULD'VE GOTTEN YOURSELF KILLED!" Vylad yelled then stopped the horse and we both got off then he hugged me tightly and I looked at him confused "Thank Irene you're safe" he told me and I guess he considers me his little brother, I then hugged back "I knew my father would help me" I told him then after a while we were about to go to Phoenix Drop but I convinced him that we need to take carriages to Scaleswind so I got Lucinda to send Nichole a communication amulet so I can talk to her so as Vylad was riding a carriage as some other guards were riding other carriages and I was telling Nichole to get every surviving villager in Scaleswind to a cave where there SHOULD be another way out through the mountain so I told her the second she and the other villagers get to the other side to destroy the amulet so we know exactly where they are so after a while I heard the amulet I have beeping and it started beeping super fast when I pointed the amulet to the mountain "I SEE THEM! VYLAD THERE!" I yelled as I pointed where to go so we all stopped by the cave entrance but.... it was caved in by rocks? I then went up to the rocks "HELLO!? NICHOLE ARE YOU IN THERE!?" I called in "ADRIAN!" I heard Nichole call "Are you okay!?" I called "WE CAN'T GET THROUGH!" Nichole yelled "GET EVERYONE TO STAND BACK! I'LL GET YOU OUT!" I called to her so I heard her ordering her villagers to back up so I backed up "How are you going to get them out?" Alina asked because she's healed and she came with us and I smiled up at her "Lifting rocks" I told her then I sighed and reached my hand out and closed my eyes then started picturing in my head all the rocks were levitating

I'm at Scaleswind and I can feel my apprentice's presence and I know he's going to use what I taught him but I need to buy him as much time as I can afford, I then faced Sarah Ro'Meave, my former apprentice before I failed her, "Did you come back to say you forgive me?" Sarah asked "To save my soul?" she demanded again "...No" I replied then she took off the cloak she's wearing and ignited her Lightsaber and it has a red unstable blade and I recognize that blade.... Ben.... I then detached my Lightsaber and ignited it as we both were in our ready stances then she charged at me and tried striking the left side of my head but I dodged it then she swung at my front but I dodged it again as she was using a backhanded grip that I taught her, I recognize what she just did... because Adrian did that during his combat training... she then held her saber properly instead of upside down then she charged and swung at my stomach but I limboed and dodged it and she tried striking me down but she missed because I'm too fast and she still has so much to learn, she never did earn the ranking of Jedi Knight before she turned, I then frowned at her "I failed you Sarah" I told her "I truly am so very sorry" I apologized "Oh I'm sure you are, Rey!" she exclaimed "The Phoenix Alliance is dead!" Sarah exclaimed "The war is over!" she exclaimed again "And when I kill you.... I will have killed The Last Jedi!" she exclaimed and I just smirked "Amazing my former apprentice, every word that just came out of your mouth, was incorrect" I told her "Like a real Phoenix, The Phoenix Alliance is reborn today from its ashes, the war, is only beginning" I started as I felt my new apprentice begin using what I had taught him "And I am not The Last Jedi" I told her with confidence in my voice as I am confident for my new apprentice that I did my absolute hardest to train.

After a few minutes I opened my eyes with my hand reached out

 and I saw I was levitating all the rocks and the people of Scaleswind looked shocked at what I'm doing and I smiled after I saw Hunter after months after he left and he came running to me so I chuckled and lowered my hand after I moved all the le...

I know Sarah knows exactly what I mean "And you have met and were defeated by my new apprentice" I told her "He was even the one who tried to save you" I told her and she seemed shocked that I trained Adrian "...I'll destroy him, then you and all of it" she told me and I deactivated my Lightsaber getting out of my stance "No" I told her "Strike me down in anger and I shall always be with you" I told her "Just like your father" I told Sarah and that seemed to really anger her as she charged full speed at me and she swung at my stomach but... she phased through me... I then smirked as I turned around to face her then she walked up to me and put half her saber blade through my chest but it phased through me and I smirked knowing my plan worked, I'm not actually in Scaleswind, I'm using The Force one last time to project an illusion of me there which was something my Master, Luke Skywalker taught me, I'm still in Phoenix Drop "No.." she gasped and lowered her saber "See you around Ro'Meave" I told her then faded away stopping myself from using my power and the last I heard was Sarah roaring in anger as I dropped from the air and fell over, I then got back up and saw... my journey is complete... I am not the last Jedi now...

We got everyone on the carriages but as I helped the last one on the last carriage, I felt Rey's presence but...she's gone... I then felt Sarah's presence right after I made sure we got everyone so I looked back in the cave and saw Sarah but I knew The Force is bridging our minds again so I put all the rocks that were blocking the cave entrance back so we couldn't be followed, I then sat next to Vylad and started leaving as Alina and I were sitting next to Vylad as he was riding the horse pulling the carriage back to Phoenix Drop as I was holding my broken Lightsaber halves and I explained to Alina what happened and what she missed out on "Rey is gone..." I told them "I felt it..." I told them "But it wasn't in anger or sadness....it was more... like she knew what she was doing" I told them explaining to them what I felt through The Force and how I felt Rey die but she died to help us get everyone out of Scaleswind, I then showed Alina the broken Lightsaber in my hands "How are we supposed to rebuild The Phoenix Alliance and how am I supposed to be a Jedi from this?" I asked Alina and she smiled and held my hand "We have everything we need little brother" she told me and I smiled at her knowing she has a plan that will change everything as we know it, I just hope I can become a Jedi and rebuild The Jedi Order soon..
