Connections

Aris Zataria trained alongside Ben Solo while under the instruction of Master Skywalker. They were close friends, yet she always felt that there was a darkness within him that seemed to be growing more and more everyday. When Ben turned to the Sith, he slaughtered everyone in the Jedi Temple. Aris did not escape unscathed, for the boy who was once her friend had burned his broken unfinished red saber into her stomach leaving her for dead. Yet she escaped, coming across an old ship Master Skywalker, who was long gone by now, had kept hidden in the forest.

She had crash landed on the near moon Yavin 4, not far from a small town, the people running towards the small ship in hopes to see the person inside still alive. "POE!" "Yeah, dad?" "Get L'ulo, I think someone's been hurt."

They had fallen at his hand years ago, every single one he thought. Yet, he feels that same pull, one he thought had been forgotten, the pull to the light. Kylo had only ever felt this way around select people, and with his father out of the question he knew it was her. Kylo knew what he had to do to find her, so he searched deep within himself, and finally Ben Solo emerged. The connection Ben and Aris had shared allowed him to find her location after all these years, and though she fled what only seemed moments before his arrival, now he knew she was alive, and he knew he'd find her again.
