A/N: Alright this is my first Star Wars fanfic so I hope that I do well and that you all will bear with me. I may add in some elements from the video games but I'm not sure right now. Also I don't remember if they said how long Luke was in exile so I'm just going to say that it was five years. If you did not read the summary there will be spoilers for the Force awakens in here so you have been warned.

General Leia Organa had just gotten the information moments ago. Her brother's whereabouts are known and in the hands of someone she knew she could trust. Luke had disappeared five years ago after her son had fallen to the Dark Side of the Force and killed all but one of the new Jedi that he was training. In the years since Luke had gone into exile things had been getting worse and worse for the resistance. Not that things were ever going well for them, but now all that the resistance was doing was taking setback after setback, and now they had a chance to find Luke.

When Luke had disappeared he not only left the Resistance, he had also left his only remaining student, the son of the famed Wedge Antilles, Daniel Antilles. Daniel, very much like his father, was a very skilled pilot and had even served the Resistance ground side, always utilizing what Luke had taught him about the Force and martial mastery of his lightsaber. Daniel had served as a dedicated officer of the Resistance and was known to work well with the best pilot they had Poe Dameron. The two were an unstoppable duo in the air with a kill count far exceeding every pilot the Resistance had ever had and were known to always get the job done. This was why Leia was now in an arguments with several high ranking Resistance officials on who to send to Jakku to retrieve the coordinates of her brother Luke Skywalker. If it were up to Leia she would have sent both of them to retrieve the coordinates but unfortunately for her she and Admiral Ackbar were the only ones to think that.

"We should only send one if it's a simple pick up," said Colonel Calvillo.

"Well the thing is Colonel there are always unforeseen errors in a plan and Admiral Ackbar and I feel that both Captain Dameron and Lieutenant Antilles could handle any situation best if they were together since they are two of the most reliable pilots we have and a very effective team," Leia stated to the Colonel.

"I'm sorry General but we just can't see why we need both of these men," General Shepard told her.

"General If I may," said a gruff voice from behind Leia. She turned and was met by the sight of the Mon Calamari Admiral, Gial Ackbar.

"Yes Admiral, go ahead," Leia said to him.

"Well, I agree with General Organa and recommend sending the both of them. Now before you tell me that we can't afford to send them both, let me explain myself first. While Lt. Antilles is an excellent pilot, in fact I would say he surpasses his father by a large margin, Capt. Dameron is still the better pilot and can maneuver them through anything the First Order can throw at them if they are caught, and with the Lt.'s Jedi abilities he would be able to sense trouble before it found them, or at the very least give them some warning. If we send both of them the chances of succeeding simply get higher. I know that you believe that this is too high a risk, however this will also help us find Luke Skywalker, we need- No, we must take this risk," Ackbar said passionately with fire in his eyes.

The General and Colonel were silent for a while after the Admirals speech, contemplating, planning, running each and every possible scenario through their head's and trying to find an error in the Admirals Logic. If both of these men were killed then not only would the Resistance take a crippling blow to its Starfighter Corps, but moral would take an incredible hit also. These men were seen as modern day legends among the men of the Resistance and the New Republic, if they were to die then things would turn very badly for the Resistance very quickly. Unfortunately though, it was a chance that they had to take.

"If this takes a bad turn then it is on you two," General Shepard

"Thank you. Admiral, get them up here," Leia said.

Ackbar nodded to a man who was standing next to him, who quickly hurried off to the intercom and ordered the two pilots to the CIC.

Poe and Daniel were working on their X-Wings in order to make the shields & weapons stronger when they heard their names being called on the intercom.

"Captain Dameron and Lieutenant Antilles, report to the Combat Information Center. Captain Dameron and Lieutenant Antillesto Combat Information Center."

Confused by this order the two pilots set down their tools and tried to clean as much of the grease off of themselves as they could before they made their way to the CIC.

"You think we should change before we get there," Daniel asked as they navigated through the bases halls.

"What do you think this is about," Poe asked ignoring Daniels question.

"Probably a raid, that's usually all the Resistance is doing against the First Order anymore. Unless you did something," Daniel said in a joking tone before seeing Poe's worried face. "Oh no what did you do?"

"Nothing I- I didn't do anything," Poe said before chuckling nervously. "So uhh… You think it's a raid."

"Probably it's the only thing we do nowadays."

"You got that right, last time we did anything big against the Order was probably about six months ago," Poe said forgetting his nervousness and his annoyance replacing it.

"And they didn't even need pilots that time. Luckily I'm trained for both air and ground combat," Daniel said smugly while Poe shot him a glare before chuckling.

"Laugh it up Antilles, but one day you'll be thanking me for saving your life with my baby back there," Poe said with a smirk on his face.

"The day that that happens is the day that I lose my connection to the Force," Daniel said with a chuckle as they approached the CIC.

When the door opened all eyes in the CIC immediately went to the two pilots who suddenly felt like they should have changed from their grease covered pilot uniforms before coming since the entire upper echelon of the Resistance seemed to be present for the meeting.

When Leia saw the two pilots enter the CIC her eyes immediately went to Daniel. She hadn't known his father very well, but she could see that he did get most of his physical traits, such as Wedges' hair, build and eyes, however the rest was most likely his mothers, whoever she was Wedge was very secretive of his personal life, due to the fact that Wedge was about five feet five inches and his son was an entire foot taller than him standing at six feet five inches. The two pilots stood at attention but then went into parade rest after being allowed to.

"Now I know that you two are the best pilots that we have and that we can depend on you to get the job done, which is why I have called you both here today," Leia said as she strode over to them. "As you both know, Luck Skywalker went into a self-imposed exile a few years ago due to Kylo Ren turning to the Dark Side of the Force. Now, we are finding out that apparently Luke left behind a map that leads to where he left, for some reason. We do not know why and at this point we can't afford to be asking that question, what we need to do is get that map before the First Order does, which is where both of you come into play. I need you both to get to Jakku and make contact with a man named Lor San Tekka who has the map of Luke's current location. Any questions," Leia asked in a no non-sense tone.

"No Ma'am," Poe and Daniel both chorused as they stood at attention once more.

"Good, you'll leave in the morning. Dismissed," Leia said before turning around to face the hologram projector in the center of the CIC, before Poe and Daniel left to prepare for the journey ahead.

The next morning Daniel and Poe reported to the outdoor hanger of the rebel base and were met by General Organa and Admiral Ackbar. The two pilots saluted and went to parade rest when allowed.

"Gentlemen, instead of taking your standard X-Wings we have decided to have you both go in a Y-Wing," Admiral Ackbar told them.

"May I ask why Admiral," Poe asked with a confused look.

"We felt it would be better to sneak past First Order long range scanners in one ship rather than two," General Organa said to them. "Good luck men and may the Force be with you both."

"May the Force be with you too Sirs," the two pilots said before heading to the Y-Wings.

Daniel and Poe were in there seats of the Y-Wing on the look-out for anything suspicious. Poe was on the scanners, while Daniels was sitting cross legged on the gunner seat with his eyes closed reaching out with the force in order to find anything of interest or anything that posed a possible threat.

"Anything," Poe asked as they approached Jakku.

"Yeah, there's two things, one of them feels dark, but it's… distant for now, but the other is, powerful and in a way it feels… familiar it's probably nothing, but it's not too far from the village were going to. Either way I think that we should keep this mission quick, I'll go down and get the coordinates and you stay in the skies just in case I need a quick exit, sound good," Daniel asked Poe from the gunner seat.

"Yeah, ok just don't go all Jedi on me down there and try to fix everyone's problems. This is just an in and out mission no nonsense got it," Poe asked going into his not joking around self that he always reserved for missions.

"Yeah I got it, mission first help people second. Oh and before you drop me off, I'm going to need BB-8 for this," Daniel said as he checked his DH-17 blaster pistol and put his lightsaber on his belt.

"Alright fine, but remember-"

"If anything happens to BB you'll destroy everything I hold dear. I know Poe, I'll be back before you know it," Daniel said knowing how much Poe loved that droid. They entered the atmosphere and landed just outside the village. Not wanting to stay landed for long, Poe stayed grounded just long enough for Daniel and BB to get out of the Y-Wing and enter the heat of the planet Jakku.

"By the Force, you think this planet would be at least somewhat cool at night," Daniel said to BB who simply beeped. "Yeah I know it's a desert planet, but it should at least be slightly cool at night," [Beep Beedop chirp]," Your right, hopefully this isn't cool on this planet."

The two entered the village and asked for a private audience with the leader of the village Lor San Tekka. Daniel was then escorted to the tent, but then he felt the Dark presence he had sensed on the Y-Wing getting stronger and closer.

"BB keep watch," Daniel said as he entered the tent with Lor San.

Poe was scanning the surrounding area around Jakku for any threats to the mission when suddenly a First Order Star Destroyer exited hyper space and deployed several dropships carrying Stormtroopers towards the village that Poe had just dropped Daniel off at.

Scrambling for his comm Poe activated it and shouted," Green one this is Black one do you read."

"Copy this is Green one what is it Black one," Daniel asked feeling confused at Poe's use of their call signs.

"You got a whole lot of First Order dropships heading your way. I'm going to land a few miles out to pick you up."

"No it's too risky, they'll either see you, shoot you down or pull you in a tractor beam. BB and I will get as far out as we can and activate a beacon when the First Order leaves the system. Stay up there and keep your engines cold, with any luck they'll just think your space junk," Daniel said," I'll stay here and help they villagers against the First Order."

"No get out of there, if they find you, a Jedi, there they'll kill everyone to show the galaxy the cost of helping a Jedi. It'll be safer for them if you just left and they surrendered," Poe told.

"I just can't leave them Poe!"

"Mission First, helping people second Daniel! We need to get the coordinates to the General!" Poe shouted through the comms.

Daniel was silent, around him several of the villagers had formed a rushed militia and were taking cover and setting up make-shift defenses. He knew that if he left them they would most likely be killed until they submitted, and then several of them would be interrogated. But honestly would any of it be different if he stayed? Sure they may kill a few more Stormtroopers but what happens when they land the rest of them, or even bring in Tie fighters to take them down. It all ended the same, the village mmilitia dead, and the First Order winning.

"I'm getting out of the village, I'll go a couple of miles out and wait for the Order to leave then come get me," Daniel said as he began to run from the village with BB-8 hot on his tail.

"No I'm coming for you, standby I'm entering the atmosphere," Poe said to Daniel as his ship descended into the planet.

"No! Dammit Poe, you'll show up on their scanners if you come to get me right now," Daniel shouted through the comms.

"No they're too focused on the Village right now besides I think this thing has a stealth unit on it."

In Lor San Takka's village his people were being rounded up and put into the town's center with Stormtroopers surrounding them. A figure in black strode out of a First Order command shuttle, on his head was a large black mask and on his belt was a specially made lightsaber that had two exhaust ports at the top of the hilt. This was Kylo Ren, leader of the Knights of Ren, Commander in the First Order and the one who betrayed Luke Skywalker in favor of following in Darth Vader's footsteps. Ren approached Takkas and sensed the fear in him and relished it. Ren loved the feeling of being feared, he loved people knowing that he could end their lives at any second he chose, it made him feel powerful, it made him feel like Darth Vader himself, the man he strived to be like, his grandfather… his hero.

"Kylo Ren, to what do we owe this displeasure," Takka sneered at him, putting on a brave façade for his people.

"I know you have coordinates on the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker," Kylo said as he strode past Takka and looked over the devastation his troops has caused the village.

"I know nothing of such coordinates," Takka lied.

"You forget I am a Force user, and you are not, I can sense your lies, your fear. So I will let you try again, where are the coordinates," Kylo asked the old man who was now giving openly showing in fear instead of false bravery. When the man said nothing and simply stood there Kylo sighed as if he was going to regret what he was about to do.

"Very well. Bring forward one of the villagers!" Kylo shouted at his troops who quickly hurried to grab one of them. A women was brought forward and made to kneel in front of Kylo, then suddenly and without remorse he took out his lightsaber and brought it down on her neck severing her head from her body. The villagers all screamed in horror and Takka fell to his knees, a look of shock, fear and anger decorated his face.

"Tell me what I want to know or I will destroy this pathetic village and every man, woman and child here will die," Kylo said darkly to the man in front of him.

"I-I don't… I don't know where he went, but I gave him the coordinates," Takka said, hating himself for betraying the resistance.

"Who?"

"He said his name was Antilles, Daniel Antillies," Takka told him sadly,

"Interesting. Which way did you say he went," Kylo asked know that the old man didn't know.

"He left after talking with his pilot that is all I know, now please spare my people," Takka pleaded, but Kylo was done listening.

"Phasma contact the Finalizer and tell them to launch Tie fighters and ground the ship, do not kill the pilot or any passengers, they hold the key to Luke Skywalker."

"Yes sir."

What about my people!" Takka asked desperately hoping that his people would be spared Kylo's wrath.

"Unfortunately for you and your people, you lied to me… so you must be made an example of," Kylo said before summoning a villager and running him through with his lightsaber. It was then the people of the village figured out that even though Takka gave Kylo the information he would have them killed anyway, so they choose to make a run for it as futile as it was.

When Kylo killed the first villager and the others began to run for their lives Captain Phasma ordered her troops to open fire and kill all of them and to spare no one except the children younger than five who would be used for conscription.

Kylo then jumped into the center of the massacre killing every villager unlucky enough to cross his path, not caring if they were parents or children, old or young, strong or weak… he killed them all.

Amidst all the chaos no one ever noticed a Stormtrooper in the back who didn't fire his weapon, who was horrified at what his comrades were doing, a Stormtrooper who had three bloody finger marks going down his helmet.

Daniel felt like he was about to throw up. The deaths of all of the villagers had caused a massive ripple across the Force and now Daniel was on the ground dry heaving from the deaths that had been caused. He also felt guilty, he had thought that if he had run then perhaps Kylo would have no use of the villagers and leave them be. However he had them all killed because he did not find what he was lied too… he killed them all just to send a message, and Daniel felt that it was his fault.

"Daniel you there," he heard Poe's voice ask over the comm.

"Yeah… I'm here Poe, what is it," Daniel asked as he got up from the ground breathing heavily.

"The Order must have got me on their sensors because I'm about to have company," Poe said just as Daniel heard the sound of Tie fighters in the air.

"Dammit Poe! Look just get out of here and I'll find my own way off of the planet," Daniel said just as the Y-Wing they used came into sight.

"Too late I'm already here."

As Poe got closer to Daniel, the sounds of Tie fighter engines got louder and Louder until green lasers shot out and hit one of the engines on the Y-Wing.

"Dammit I'm hit! I'm going down!"

"POE!" Daniel yelled out as the Y-Wing began to spin uncontrollably before it hit the ground with a loud crash. Daniel immediately began to run toward the crash site BB-8 right behind him. "Poe come in! Poe if your there answer me!"

Suddenly there was a fit of coughing through the comm. "Daniel… are you… there," Poe asked through fits of coughing.

"Yeah I'm here Poe, are you ok?"

"Yeah, but don't come near the crash site. In about two minutes this place is going to be covered in First Order Stormtroopers, get the codes and BB out of here got it," Poe said sternly through the comms.

"I'm not leaving you there Poe," Daniel said as he kept running to the crash site.

"Dammit Daniel, those codes are more important than me alright! Stay away! I can already see the transports coming this way, go I'll be fine!"

Daniel stopped and looked up and indeed he saw the First Order troop transports heading to where Poe had crashed. Weighing his options Daniel saw that Poe was right he wouldn't be able to save him right now, it would be suicide.

"Fine Poe, I'll get the codes to the General and then I'm coming back for you brother," Daniel said to his friend.

"Thank you, now get the hell out of here, before the first order finds you too," Poe said before Daniel cut the connection and went to find the nearest settlement, BB following him closely, both hoping that their friend would survive First Order interrogation.

Well here it is. My very first Star Wars fanfic, I hope that you all enjoy it and be in the look-out for more- Pacco1
