After watching "The Rise of skywalker" , many of us have wondered what would have happened if Ben Solo had lived. Would he have been caught and imprisoned? Would he have been sentenced to die, or rather shown mercy? Or would he have begun a new jedi order with Rey? Those things were left to our minds to imagine. 
   Either way, I think it would have been a hard fate for him, given his conflicted nature and what he had done. 
   Here is my version of the story. I'll try to make it look less like a fanfiction, and more like real star wars content.  

   Ben had made it out alive after the Battle of Exegol. But after all the crimes he did, and after the justice the resistance has sought to bring to the galaxy, he knows just too well he would not be allowed to live a peaceful life again, so he is forced to live in exile.  
    Him and Rey are back on Takodana, hidden in the deep forests of the green planet.
    But the worst hasn't come yet: after their Force is drained by the Emperor, after they give a great part of themselves to save each other, something strange happens: neither of them can feel the force anymore.
    The question is, will those acts be the last we have seen of them? 
    With the New Empire rising again to power, led by the ruthless General Pryde and guided by another dark entity, and the resistance being shadowed by revenge on Kylo Ren, Rey and Ben are the only light that remains in the Galaxy. 
   They are the ones said to bring the balance, so they must focus on the Force. But will they ever feel it again? And with the strange feelings that occur between them, will they find the path to the Light, or go astray from it as Ben's grandfather did in the past for the same reason?

   Solos, Palpatines or Skywalkers... It does not matter, they're all pawns of a dirty game over the Force.

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."

"When I offer you my hand again, you'll take it." What if Kylo Ren had been right? What if Rey had taken Kylo Ren's hand when he offered it the second time, deciding her best chance at defeating Palpatine and saving the galaxy was with him? But can the two of them overcome their differences and mistrust of each other to accomplish that task or will pride win out? And then there is a certain group of meddling Force Ghosts determined to test them to their fullest. Meanwhile, Finn has a destiny of his own to fulfill chasing visions of his past across the galaxy. Poe buries himself in work as he tries to forget his failures and forge ahead. Leia attempts to cement her legacy and ensure the future of the galaxy. This fanfic explores a different ending to TROS starting at about the halfway point, when Kylo reveals the truth about Rey in the hangar. It will focus mainly on their story but there will be significant plot arcs that focus on Finn, Poe, Leia, and others. There will be a few augmentations to the earlier story, but I have tried to stay true to the plot up until this point, except for the 16 hr deadline Palpatine gave them. His threat was open ended in my version. This will contain mature and graphic content. 11/9/20 #1 in Palpatine #2 in Reylofanfiction 11/24 #37 in Reylo 12/14/20 Almost 9k reads, y'all are the best #61 in Star Wars (out of 26k!) #1 in reylofanfiction #1 in greyjedi 5/2/21 #3 in Reylo I am completely blown away by you all! 5/6/21 #1 in Reylo you all are awesome! I'm starting to move away from canon compliance and adopting some items from the EU but with a heavy dose of artistic license. Early chapters are ~1000 words, later are over 3000. I do not own any of the original Lucasfilm characters. All rights reserved. Artwork belongs to kaylerinarts (seriously, check her out). Reviews and constructive criticism appreciated.

(Originally published 2019 then I deleted May 2020 oopsies but re-published July 2024 without changing a thing) Their hands found one another anyway and the silence between them, broken only by their breathing, was something deeper and more painful than she had ever experienced. But they stayed. She knew he had something else to say-so as he held her hand, as she let it be held, as she held his in return, as he let it happen-she waited. "What about your life?" Immediately following Episode VIII, this is my idea of what might happen between Kylo and Rey. What if his own troops rise against Ben, and begin to attack the Resistance without his orders? What if Rey and Ben find themselves fighting the same enemy? The Force bond kept the other far away, but what will happen when they are forced together?
