AN: ok, so I know I said only slight rogue one spoilers, but the plot changed. Significant RO spoilers ahead, and more to come
Finn looked around, blinking in confusion. He was standing on the same beach, but Poe was gone. He was also in the middle of a battle. He ran for cover, but then the scene changed. He was in a meeting room, two men and a woman sat around the table.
"Kyber crystals as a power source? And not just for Jedi? Are you sure?"
"Daddy?" a voice calls behind them. Finn turns. The scene changes.
"You are ready to build your own saber." A man he doesn't recognize tells a young boy. There are in a grand room, but the table in front of them is simple, covered in piles of tools and pieces of metal.
"Really, Master Kenobi?"
"Yes. Now, be careful with the crystal."
"I will."
Finn blinked.
Now he was in a darkened room, shadowy and foggy. Another man and a Togruta girl sat crouched over a body. The girl held two red stones in her hand.
"Sith. How do they even find red crystals?" she muttered. The man sighed.
"They don't. the red comes from being corrupted by the Dark Side. The crystals… they bleed."
The girl's eyes furrowed in disgust.
Then the girl was grown, and handing a white crystal to a familiar looking human woman.
"You must have it, Lyra." The Togruta told her. Then the human- Lyra? - faded, and the remaining woman turned, looking directly at Finn.
"And you need to find the other one," She said.
Finn took a step back. "Me?"
She rolled her eyes. "No. The girl behind you." Finn looked, and saw Rey behind him.
"Rey!" smiled, taking a step toward her.
"Finn!" she greeted, moving to hug him. She moved strait through him instead. They looked at each other, puzzled. The other woman sighed behind them.
"You aren't actually here. But I need to talk to you." She was starting to look odd, and Finn nodded.
"What?"
"You need to find the other crystal. It will match the one he already found. As a pair, they will give you more strength. And if your enemies find the Dark Saber, they are your only hope." She told them. Yes, now that Finn was looking, she was starting to become… discolored.
"Our enemies? You mean Kylo Ren?" Rey asked.
The woman shrugged. "Yes. Him, his knights, his master. The Force isn't one for names. Well, not most names. We are all one to it, through it." She added. Well that made sense.
"Where can we find the other crystal?" Rey asked.
"His crystal will help you find its pair." She told him. She paused. "You should tell your master, he will be able to teach you more about the living crystals." She told Rey, before turning to Finn. Yes, she was now blue, and fading.
"Your friend, the pilot-"
"Poe Dameron?" he interrupted.
"Yes, him. He needs to know that the force does not only flow through crystals and Jedi. Tell him to look to the blind monk. Oh, and tell him to look in the Dagobah system." She was now transparent. Finn could feel someone shaking him. the dream- the vision- must be weakening.
"May the force be with you both." The woman bid, before disappearing completely.
Finn and Rey looked to each other. He opened his mouth, but she cut him off.
"No, I'll come find you. You need to get that message to Poe. I'll see you soo-"
Then everything went dark, before Finn jerked upward. Poe and the General where leaning over him, worried.
Rey look around, surprised to find herself back in the forest. Master Luke sat in front of her, waiting.
"You had another vision." He said. It wasn't a question, but Rey nodded anyway. She hadn't found her voice yet. Master Luke sensed this, and continued.
"This is the first time they've come when you were awake."
"Yes." Rey's voice was horse. She cleared her throat. "Yes." She repeated. "And Finn was in it."
This got a reaction. "Is he hurt?" Master Luke was concerned. "Did you see his future, or the present?"
"No, No, not like that. This time, it was like, he was having a vision too, and we shared the tail end."
Her teacher did not show his confusion, but Rey felt it. "Perhaps you should start at the beginning."
"Well, I saw Ky- The Knights of Ren. They were looking for something or someone. Then the scene changed, and I saw a man with a black lightsaber." Rey continued to tell him as they stood, walking back to the temple.
Morodè blinked awake, unsure of her surroundings. Her head hurt a bit, and her back was sore, but she seemed to be alright. She was laying on something hard. A cot of some sort. The lighting was dim, but there where strange shadows cast behind her head, lines. She sat up with a groan, noting the low ceiling. Looking around, she realized how small her room- was it even a room? - was. And-
Oh.
The shadows where cast by bars. The only way out was a prison styled door. She stood, and tested the door.
Locked.
She looked through the bars desperately, trying to figure out where she was. No one was in sight, but she realized that opposite her cell where others. Was she in some sort of prison? And why?
She sat on her bed, suddenly very tired. Was she a hostage? She supposed her family was well off enough to warrant a ransom, though she didn't think they were well-known enough for it. But perhaps it had been an act of random violence. No, it was too well planned for it. Perhaps it had something to do with the resistance? Was some First Order sympathizer retaliating against Vodan helping the resistance, or perhaps just wanted to make a point. But they had destroyed an entire system, she didn't think that she was important enough for that.
Perhaps there was a clue somewhere, something to tell her where she was now. The room was only large enough for one bed and enough space to walk down the length of it. The wall had some strange panels though…
She stood, and examined one. It had a slight lip on the top. She pulled it, and the panel folded down, becoming a tray. Attached to it was a plate and spoon. Well, at least it looked like she would be fed. She folded the panel back up, noticing two large ones near the foot of the bed.
Those pulled out to reveal a 'fresher and a small sink. Morodè tried not to think of the utter lack of privacy she would have, and pushed them back in. she looked around for any more, and found one last one. It was an empty storage drawer. Well, that answered that. Not a single mark or distinction that would tell her where she was. She sat back on the bed, letter her thoughts wander. She dimly wondered where her jailer was, before deciding that she was probably better off not knowing.
"Yes, perhaps." A voice said from outside, and Morodè jumped, looking for the source. Standing outside her cell was a tall figure, cloaked in black, with dark helmet covering his head. His cold voice continued. "But we don't always get what is best for us, do we?"
Morodè was suddenly very not tired, and a large part of her was screaming to back away, get as far away from this man as possible. But then further movement outside drew her attention. She heard footsteps, then a grating squeal as a door opened. The man turned, facing the action, and she could see someone being deposited into a cell like hers by two men. One was dressed similarly to the first one, the other was whereing Biran Robes.
The other man in black looked to the one by her cell. "She is already awake." The first man said, obviously displeased.
The other man stepped closer to her cell, bowing low. Behind him, the third man- in the robes- turned, and she gasped, recognizing the face of Daw Crathy.
Both men looked to her, and Morodè shifted away, nervous.
"I'm sorry, Kylo Ren." The second man said, still bowing. "It won't happen again, I assure you." Then he rose, looked back at the girl, and waved his hand. Everything went black.
