[ STARDUST: REY&REN ]
The Resistance had managed to mount a desperate escape from The Battle of Crait a year ago, with the help of the jedi apprentice Rey and managed to hide beneath the endless forests of a jungle moon of Ajan Kloss. They're the last spark left to light the fire of freedom across the galaxy and General Leia Organa is determined not to give up on her fight against The Order, for Han, for Luke and for Ben Solo.
Rey's hopes of turning Ben to the light is far from relinquished but she is well aware the death of Snoke will cause her aim to be harder to achieve. Because now, Ben isn't the lost boy torn between the light and darkness, who she had bonded with on Ahch-To but someone who had fully internalised the darkness within him, her enemy himself, The Supreme Leader of The First Order, Master of The Knights of Ren, Kylo Ren.
Only the action of sitting on a throne alone is worth sacrificing a life time for some people, General Hux would proudly accept the fact that he is inneed one of those people. Not fully believing the story Ren had told of Snoke's death is the truth, Hux is ready to do everything he can do to adaunt The Knights of Ren and their revenant master alongside the rest of The First Order. Maybe this internal war within The First Order shall give The Resistance, the advantage, the miracle they longingly need.
"Here we are, right back at the start," He spoke through the force, "It seems like the force ironically tries to remind me how the history repeats itself." He had no clue what he was expecting to see when he finally picked his glaze up to look at her but her reaction definietly wasn't it. She didn't look at him with hatred yet there wasn't the compassion her eyes beared as usual either, she was suprisingly and honestly irritatingly calm.
"You are the one who took a step forward and decided to take ten back," Rey stated, "But some things never go back to the starting point."

"I wanted to join you," Rey said, tears dripping from her face.
"Then why didn't you?" Menace crept from Kylo Ren's voice as he turned to make deathly eye contact with her.
"You know why!"
"Enlighten me," he threatened, though it sounded like a plea.
"It wasn't our time, Ben, you know that." Rey's voice shook a little.
"When is our time?" Kylo's voice became lighter.
"You already know the answer to that," she sniffled.
***
The Force knew Rey was to be in Kylo Ren's life just as Kylo was to be in Rey's. However, both individuals prayed and hoped for very different outcomes.
Rey wanted nothing more than to bring Kylo Ren back to the Light. She wanted to show him the wonders it provided and the life they could have if he returned to her.
Kylo wanted to bring her to the Dark Side. He wanted to rule with his bride by his side.
The Force was the only one who truly knew what the future held.
