What if the bond, the Dyad and the connection had started earlier? An AU interpretation of what the sequels could've been if one person had bothered to come up with a decent coherent storyline, starting while Rey and Ben are very young. #1 starwarssequels 15.10.20 #1 dyad 12.12.20 #1 reylofanfiction 31.12.20, 22.6.21 #1 bendemption 18.2.21, 6.1.22 #1 Reylo 28.4.21, 14.5.24 Will be very Reylo focused. There will be references to comics, books and major points from sequels will generally still be hit. Thank you to @Dobby113 for helping me to hash out the main points.

Where is Ben Solo? #3- ReyxBen 10.12.20 #10- worldbetweenworlds 4.11.21 Rey headed to where she had trained in meditation with Leia. She sat crossed legged within the small clearing within the jungle trees of Ajan Kloss. Breathe she told herself attempting to shake off the dream, but the realness disturbed her. Just breathe. She sat eyes closed meditating breathing and slowly the inner calm she'd come there to seek flowed. She was a conduit of the Force and it flowed through her, centred and calm she ascended one with the Force. Around her rocks also began to ascend floating tranquilly about her like satellites orbiting their planet. It was a surprisingly peaceful moment. "Rey." Rey plummeted to the ground with an ungraceful thud as did everything around her. Cursing she stood and spun in all directions. "Ben!" Rey shouted into the clearing, but of course, there was no answer. She searched about her, but even before she began searching the surrounding trees she knew he wasn't there. Written as a sequel to the Rise of Skywalker (the film, not my fanfiction version) and before the release of novelisation or at least here in the UK. If they were to bring Ben Solo back this is how I think they could do it.

A girl searching for her place in the galaxy. A boy fighting to take control of his destiny. And the bond that runs deeper than either of them could've imagined. It's been a month since Rey began her training with Luke Skywalker. Everyone said Kylo Ren had perished along with Starkiller Base, but she knew better. She felt his presence, a nudging in the Force that pulsed with life. No matter how hard Rey tries, she can't stop thinking of him. Her captor. Those haunting dark eyes, staring into her soul, a mirror image of her own. Their souls are so different, yet the same, and she can't get him out of her head. Turns out, he can't stop thinking about her, either.

With Kylo Ren's darkness encasing her like a safeguard -a dark swirling mass of power with the density of deep space- Rey's bright gold Force-essence exploded to life with the radiant illumination of solar flares and stars. Luke's face shot back to his groaning nephew. Kylo's Force aura had visibly changed too. He was still enveloped by thick blanketing shadows, but they seemed well under his control now. They ebbed and wove around him, moving with him, rather than against him. Luke blinked in disbelief but It was unmistakable; Within Kylo Ren's dark aura of swirling shadows were sparks and flakes of Rey's golden light and together they spiraled as one thriving solar system of both the light and dark. Rey recovered first and she half dragged herself to Ren. Unsure of what would happen next, Luke stood stead fast in his curiosity as the girl stumbled to her knees before his nephew who was still cradling his head between his forearms, his screams only just dying down to muffled whimpers. She reached out towards the Dark sider, her hand hesitating nervously within the space between them. -Her fingers twitching, her lungs tight, and then, she shakily placed it on his trembling arm. Instantly he stilled under her touch, his body calming in response to her contact. The Force between where skin met skin, visibly glowed. It wasn't just darkness. Nor just light. It was something new. Something born between the two. As if lightning had struck Luke where he stood, enlightenment filled the old Jedi's eyes and the passage he'd forgotten so long ago, came back to him all at once; "First comes the day Then comes the night. After the darkness Shines through the light. The difference, they say, Is only made right By the resolving of the grey Through refined Jedi sight." -Journal of the Whills, 7:477 Highest Rankings: #2 StarWars #1 Knights of Ren #1 Kylo Ren #2 Adam Driver #2 Rey #1 ForceBond #3 Reylo Thanks to all of you wonderful readers out there !!!

A month has passed since the death of Han Solo. A month since Star Killer Base was destroyed. A month since Finn nearly died battling Kylo Ren. A month since I found Luke Skywalker, and he agreed to train me. The month has not been kind, with the Republic gone, the First Order has risen while the Resistance has been diminished to staggeringly small number. And all this time i have tried to ignore the flood of grief for the father that I never had, and now never will have. This story is dedicated to jjs797 because without her I never would have started this book.

《COMPLETE》The TROS ending we never got! The sparse remnants of the Resistance that fled from Crait slowly rebuild, hiding away from the First Order. Rey, accompanied by Poe and Finn, float from system to system attempting to stealthily recruit new rebels to their force aboard the Millenium Falcon. Kylo Ren has been sworn in as the Supreme Leader of the First Order, under the doubtful watch of General Hux, and assigns the Knights of Ren to acquire Rey. The Force continues to open the bond between him and Rey... linking them at their loneliest hours. WARNING: This is one hell of a slow burn. #1 STARWARS (04/10/2020) #1 REYLO (11/06/2019)(03/17/2020) #1 THE LAST JEDI (11/06/2019) #1 BEN SOLO (07/04/2020) **Authors Note** Please vote on chapters that are going well! It helps guide me in what interests an audience. First few chapters started out a little short, but I hit a much better stride after finding my voice around Chapters 6-8. I will end up re-editing the beginning once it is complete - it's my first official fanfiction so please be kind and constructive with criticism, this is more freeform and I'm incredibly rusty on Star Wars lingo and lore.

COMPLETED!! First Attempt at a REYLO Fanfic... CONTAINS SPOILERS FROM THE LAST JEDI!!! It's been five years since the near decimation of the Resistance and Kylo Ren's ascension into Supreme power. The First Order's grip on the Galaxy is loosening as planets and systems start to revolt against it's imperial regime. As more and more people flock to the Resistance in a bid to overthrow the tyrannical First Order, it's time for the Last Jedi Rey to come out of hiding and rejoin the fight against the dark side. Meanwhile, as Kylo Ren's inner turmoil continues, General Hux sees an opportunity and calls in the infamous Knights of Ren to unearth the truth surrounding Snoke's death all those years ago and bring total imperial control to the galaxy. *Disclaimer: I do not own the majority of characters in this story. The plot is a work of my imagination and any crossover is coincidence! Cover not mine, credit goes to artist!*

Following the events after The Last Jedi. "Just a dream, it was just a dream," she says aloud attempting to calm herself, but the feeling doesn't dissipate, and her heart is still racing. She stands and walks towards the doorway to the fresh air outside, trying to get the images out; a child her child and his. She feels sick and faint, is this a panic attack? She walks outside her hut and stands in the rain holding onto the wooden railing of the platform around the cabin tightly to give her balance. #2-Reylo 25.11.2018, 24.10.19 #1- ReyxKyloRen 1.3.2019, 6.1.22 #2- starwarsfanfiction 31.12.19 #13- starwars 21.8.19 #2- starwarssequels 10.12.20 Big fan of the movies and books. I am a massive Reylo shipper- #Reyloisendgame, but there is nothing mature rated or not appropriate for say 12-year-old plus. I do not own the original star wars characters. I do not own the artwork throughout, except the art on the note from myself which is mine. The cover is by Heidi Hastings. "I appreciated how much you fleshed out the story, truly making it a potential movie in the franchise. I can't not mention the romance. You truly made Ben and Rey's relationship believable on many levels. From his temper and passion to his devotion to Rey, I loved how you didn't make light of his past so that we can accept him easier. They complete each other and their love brings balance to the universe and gives them what they have always wanted - true acuhceptance and companionship." "I have not encountered anything so truly amazing since 'Bloodline' (Claudia Grey)." "I have read so much fanfiction, normally I don't read smutless stories, but this one is so well written, beautiful ending and I couldn't stop today until I finished it." "This is one of, if not the best Reylo books I have read so far."

"The white noise of space travel suddenly silenced. Ben's breathing and heart rate synchronized with Rey's. There seemed to be a soft, slightly wavering light encompassing them. He opened his eyes. They were no longer on the ship. Where ever they were, it was storming. It was a vision. A memory. Rey seemed afraid. " Events during and after The Last Jedi. (What my episode 9 would be) reylo starts in 3rd part I both love and hate the last jedi! The elements I love about the movie, I expounded upon (Reylo!!), and I fixed some of the things I hated- such as Luke's character. PS. Smut free. I don't like reading it, therefore won't be writing it. There are plenty of other stories here with it, so if you want smut, read elsewhere, thank you.
