Chapter Two

Luke Skywalker -

I watch Ben storm outside. I wait until I feel him at a distance before placing a call to my sister, Leia. I stand straight so that she'll be able to see my form clearly on the hologram. I can still feel residue of having been pushed by the force on my chest. I have not sensed such a strength in such a long time…

"Luke." I hear my sister, a slight draw on the u.

I look at her hologram. She stands straight, chin slightly lifted and a small smile on her lips. "Leia."

She narrows her eyes at me. "Is Ben okay? I think there's something wrong, Luke."

I look down towards my feet slightly. I inhale a little as I try to find the words.

"Luke, talk to me." Leia sighs

"He used the force, Leia.. to push me away from him. He knocked me back quite the distance." I look into her eyes. "Leia… I felt a lot of impatience and negativity today during training. Worse than ever."

She nods a bit and looks away. "I see…" She looks back at me. "Luke. You must help him. You can help him in ways I cannot. In ways that Han cannot." She looks away sadly.

"I'm trying, Leia. But… his pull is very strong… I don't understand it."

"Luke. You do everything that is pos-"

"Is that Luke?" I hear a child's voice. Peeking into the hologram is Poe Dameron.

I smile at him. "Hi Poe."

He grins at me. His thumbs press on his new white vest. "Check it out. Im almost gonna be a pilot, Luke!"

"That's great, Poe. Look at you… You're gonna be the next best pilot."

His eyes widen and his grin gets bigger. "You bet. Me and BB-8 are gonna be the best." His expression changes, brows furrowing inquisitively. "Where's Ben? I wanna show him my vest."

"He's training right now, Poe… try later. I need to talk to Leia right now."

"Oh." He frowns. "Sorry!" He looks at Leia, smiles, then runs off.

Leia looks back at me. "Luke. You have to teach him… You have to help my Ben."

I nod. But before I can speak I feel a darkness. Something is wrong.

"Go, Luke!" She says as she shuts off the hologram call.

I run outside and follow this feeling. I follow the remnants of Ben's life force leading into the woods. The younglings are looking at me confused, "Get inside!" I yell at them.

"Ben!" I yell as I run into the wooded area. Only silence follows. But the darkness is there. I only need to follow it.

Ben Solo -

I hear that voice again, calling me, whispering to me. I followed it until finally I reached a tall hooded figure. The person turns, skin scarred and wrinkled. He extends a long finger at me, gesturing me to come forward.

I watch him first. I don't move.

"Ben." He says, voice echoing in the empty night.

"You're the one." I begin to approach him. "You're the one who's been calling me. You're…" I shake my head. "I've heard you all my life…"

He nods, a crooked smile following. "That's right, Ben. I've been watching you. I've been calling you… waiting for you."

"For me?" I step closer. "Why me?... Who are you?" I stop going towards him.

"Ben, you're special. I know that you know who you are…" He begins to take steps towards me. "You're Darth Vader's descendant. You… you are the most powerful on this land…"

"My uncle is strong." I say quickly, feeling a chill as he walks around me.

"Yet, he won't teach you a thing. He won't even hand you a lightsaber." I see his hand sneak into his robe, a lightsaber emerging in his hand. "I have one for you."

I stare, wide eyed. My hand extends towards it. But he retracts. "Hey!"

"I can show you how to be as powerful as your uncle… as powerful as your grandfather, Ben." He says, bending down to meet me eye to eye. "You can begin real training with me…"

I stare down at the lightsaber in his hand. I nod. "Okay."

"But you must do something Ben… I must know you are ready to join me." He places his hand on my shoulder.

"What must I do?" I stare into his icy eyes, watching as his crooked smile returns.

Luke Skywalker -

"Ben!" I yell again. The darkness has faded too much. I can barely sense Ben. Is he still here? But I trudge on, shouting his name in hopes that maybe he'll answer me. That maybe he will listen to me and continue to train with me.

I stop in my tracks as I see my nephew standing in a small clearing. He's staring at his hands.

"Ben." I sigh, slightly exasperated as I walk to stand in front of him. "Are you okay?" I bend down to look him in the eyes.

He looks at me and nods. "Yes."

I pull him into a hug. "Ben, please, be patient. I love you. You are my nephew and I do this to help you." He stands almost limp in my arms, not a word emerging from him. He doesn't even protest. I release him and look him in the eyes. There's no emotion… there's nothing. "We'll continue training tomorrow… I think we're done for the night."

I stand and take him by the hand as we walk back. "Poe Dameron called. He's one step closer to becoming a pilot."

Ben looks up at me for a second before looking ahead. "I'm closer to becoming the best jedi."

I glance at him then continue to walk. "I hope we don't get lost on our way back."
