Forgotten, But Not Lost

Chapter 106

Tana knew she was trapped, her fear rose within her mind, creating a beacon in the force, that reached the boundaries of all of the close proximity force wielders. Tana took steps back as far as she could but still close enough to her unaware twin Sister.

Ben and Amar had not been separated in their fight against the troopers. They had held their stance with fighting back to back, whirling their sabers in unison. They were confident in their abilities to hold off the offense, as they waited for their relief from the sky.

They were able to bridge their minds within the Grey, in order to have the open communication on how everyone was going in this fight. Ben and Amar could feel both sets of their Knights having the same luck on their side.

Above their heads, they heard the familiar and relieving sound of the troop carrier and fighter ships coming in. The troop carrier landed behind them and instantly had Resistance and First Order troopers spilling out from the ramp. Amar grabbed Ben's hand and retreated back, they did not want to be caught in the middle of both sides firing at each other.

Amar spotted Finn, right behind the front line of Resistance fighters. Finn and Amar's eyes met and Amar ran over to him.

"Amar, we got this, get inside, so you can end this once and for all." Amar slapped him on the back and thanked him for the helpful distraction. The Sith troopers had been scattered, which is exactly what they were intending for them to do. That way the Grey ,could easily slip through their line and get to the towering tomb just ahead.

Ben reached out through the force.

Make towards the crypt just ahead, we got our chance.

Ben and Amar could feel it had been received, it was just a matter of time before they all were assembled again.

As Amar and Ben made their way towards the tomb, their force connection was interrupted with concern. They could feel her, reaching out for help in her force. Tana was here, their Daughter who they had left on Lothal, that they thought was in a catatonic state. Not only was she here, she was in danger. Amar could feel that she was trapped. Pushing her force out for someone to notice, hoping that it would reach anyone for help.

Ben and Amar met their gaze.

Amar couldn't help it any longer and needed to get in there to her younglings. Both of the twins were now in grave danger. The four other Grey, found their way to Ben and Amar. Rey could feel the presence of Tana through the force and concern plastered her face as well. Rey and Amar felt that similar anger growing in their veins for their Grandfather.

In a split second, Rey and Amar were standing with the Grey and then they were sprinting into the tomb, into the awaiting trap. Ben called out for Amar to stop, but her fear was clouding her judgement. Ben motioned for the rest of them to follow and they all made quick work of making up their strides to meet Rey and Amar.

Rey and Amar paused as they skimmed their bodies through the slabs of rock into the crypt. It was dark and hindering inside, but their force was allowing them their own kind of vision. It was quiet inside and there were no longer any ounce of noises coming from the machinery.

"Looks like they have either accomplished or been disrupted." Rey said in a hush tone to Amar.

Amar could feel the presence of her husband and the rest of the Grey on their heels. Ben grabbed Amar's upper arm and brought her into his panting body.

"Mar, we are stronger together. Please my love, do not run off like that." Ben's eyes were pleading with her and Amar could see through her emotions running wild, that she had forgotten that Ben was also in that same spot. Running off on him like that was his entire family slipping through his fingers. Amar brought her hands up to his face and pecked him quickly with her dry lips.
