A door leading to the power-conduit chamber opens, and stormtroopers pours inside. Following them is Kylo Ren and a couple of First Order officers. Chewie, Finn and Rey are careful to stay in cover as they move and place detonators. Han spots Kylo, ducks back into cover and appears conflicted about the whole situation.
The TIE Fighters and the E-wings duke it out in space. Two First Order cruisers close in and lends their firepower to the battle.
Various E-wing pilots sum up the dire situation in their cockpit-conversations.
"Don't give up!" Poe tells them. "Give 'em all you've got! We can do this!"
A resistance-officer walks up to Leia. "General, we've lost seven E-wings. There are still eighty TIE Fighters operational, plus the rest of the First Order fleet."
"What about the evacuation?" Leia asks.
C-3PO provides the answer. "Two thirds of all personnel have been evacuated, your highness. But we are hard pressed to fit everyone onboard the few ships we have left."
Leia utters a silent curse before she says, "Come on, Han. Blow that damn ship."
Chewie, Finn and Rey are hiding from stormtroopers searching the power-conduit chamber, placing an extra detonator out of sight from the First Order soldiers. Kylo Ren walks across a catwalk extending across the power-conduit, reaching a platform directly above an open hatch in the conduit itself, revealing the massive surges of energy within the conduit.
"JACEN!"
Kylo stops and turns. All stormtroopers do the same. They all see Han Solo slowly stepping out onto the same catwalk. The stormtroopers take aim. Chewie, Finn and Rey are all at a loss as to what Han is doing.
"Han Solo" Kylo says as Han walks closer to him. "I've been waiting for this day for a long time.
"Take of that mask" Han says as he steps onto the platform. "You don't need it."
"What do you think you'll see if I do?" Kylo asks.
"The face of my son."
A moment of silence. Then, for the first time in the story, Kylo removes the mask and helmet and drops it to the flooring of the platform.
"Your son is gone" Kylo says. "He was weak and foolish, like his father. So I destroyed him."
Han shakes his head, not giving up on his boy. "That's what Creel wants you to believe. So he can control you."
"You're wrong" Kylo says. "The Supreme Leader is wise. The Knights of Ren have shown me more truth than you or uncle Luke ever did or ever could!"
"Creel is using you for your powers" Han counters. "When he gets what he wants, he'll crush you. He knows you can destroy him. So he will make sure to destroy you first. You know I'm right."
Kylo considers it for a moment. "It's too late" he then says.
"No, it's not" Han says and steps up to his son. "Leave here with me. Come home. We miss you."
Kylo is struggling, an internal battle that is shifting back and forth. He looks up at Han with tears in his eyes.
"I'm being torn apart" he says. "I want to be free of this pain. I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it."
"Let me help you" Han says, trying to redeem his son, stepping up to him and placing a hand on Kylos shoulder.
Finn and Rey can't believe what is happening. Chewie grips gun tighter. The stormtroopers take more careful aim.
"Thank you" Kylo says.
The red lightsaber ignites, impaling Han through the chest and piercing his back. Han, in chock, looks his son in the eyes, unable to grasp what has happened.
Rey screams. "NO!"
Kylo pulls the weapon free and Han falls off the platform, into the open hatch in the conduit, his body disintegrated as it hits the flow of energy within the conduit.
Leia senses Hans death and knows what has happened. She sits down, overcome by the knowledge.
Chewie lets out a terrifying roar and fires his crossbow, hitting Kylo in the gut and Kylo falls over, barely holding on to the platform. Finn and Rey open fire on the stormtroopers who return fire. Chewie charges the stormtroopers and throws them left and right, he is going berserk!
Finn calls out to the Wookie. "Chewie! Come on! We gotto go! Chewie, we gotto go!"
Chewie, still filled with rage, calms and stops the rampage. He locks eyes with the wounded Kylo and then turns to run after Finn and Rey. Kylo quickly crawls back on his feet and pulls his helmet to him.
As Chewie, Finn and Rey exit the power-conduit chamber, Chewie retrieves a detonator and pushes the button. All of their explosives detonate across the chamber.
Flying his E-wing, Poe notices something on his instruments. "The shield! It's down! All fighters, take out that cannon!"
The last remaining eight E-wings makes a run for it towards the Starkiller.
The captain of the Starkiller turn to Hux on the bridge of the massive warship. "General! The shield is down! We are unprotected and the Resistance is coming straight at us!"
Hux is furious. "I want all ships to engage those fighters! Now!"
An E-wing aligns itself with the super-weapon. "This is Rogue Six, target locked!" Two torpedoes are launched. "It's away!"
As Rogue Six veers off, chased by three TIE Fighters, the torpedoes race towards the mouth of the great cannon, and as they enter, they are shatter.
Leia, standing by the strategy-table, turns to her officers. "What happened?"
Colonel Stammets turns to Leia. "The electro-magnetic field of the cannons coils must have destabilized the torpedoes."
C-3PO is as optimistic as expected. "Oh my! We're doomed!"
Leia hangs her head, then looks up. "All fighters, retreat. We can't take out the cannon. Save yourselves. That's an order."
A First Order shuttle flies in beneath the Starkiller and attaches itself to the hull not far from the Falcon. Finn, Rey and Chewie make no excuses inside of the Starkiller as they blast their way through the ships corridors and climb back into the Falcon.
Poe takes one last look at the Starkiller. "To hell with this" he says, turns around and goes full throttle. "BB-8, shut down the cannons and redirect all power you got to engines. I need all the speed you can give me, alright? Maximum thrust."
The lone E-wing zigzags, spins and barrel-rolls its way through the First Order fleet and its fighter-support.
Rogue Six looks over his shoulder through the cockpit. "Dameron, whatta hell are you doing?!"
Poe focuses on his flying as he responds. "I'm not giving up without a fight!"
On the bridge of the Starkiller, the captain addresses Hux.
"General, the weapon will be ready to fire within thirty seconds."
"Finally" Hux says and smiles with overconfidence. "You may fire when ready."
Poe flies up in front of the Starkiller and goes at full speed into the cannon itself, the electro-magnetic field sending static-lightning dancing around his shields.
"Get ready with the hyperdrive!" Poe tells BB-8 who replies with a series of worried beeps.
The E-wing closes in at reckless speed the end of the cannon, Poe launches the torpedoes, pulls his controls hard and forces the E-wing to turn 180 on a dime.
"Now, BB-8! Punch it!"
BB-8 makes a quick noise and then the E-wing shoots off at lightspeed! At the same time, the torpedoes hit the emitter-nozzle and obliterates it!
The Falcon detaches from the Starkiller and flies off at full speed. Behind the Falcon, the Starkiller explodes and the Falcon dodges flying debris from the destroyed Starkiller.
"They did it!" Finn says excited. "I can't believe it! They did it!"
Rey is not as happy though when she gives Chewie a glance. The Wookie is obviously devastated by the death of Han.
In the Resistance-base, everyone is cheering. Leia is as serious as ever.
"Their fleet is turning around. They're coming for us" Leia says and gains everyone's attention. "We're not out of this yet. We need to step up the evacuation."
"Your highness" C-3PO says. "I'm afraid we do not have enough ships to complete the evacuation. I calculate that at least fifty people will have to be left behind."
Leia understand the grave situation they are in. "I'll stay" she says. "Get as many as you can onboard my ship."
As the last Resistance-ship leaves, Leia, C-3PO and thirty others watch as it takes off and heads for the skies. Leia is walking across the base, looking at now abandoned equipment and vehicles. She stops and looks to the sky as TIE Fighters fly in overhead.
Six larger First Order troop-transports lands and unloads a full company each of stormtroopers. Leading them all is Captain Phasma.
"Secure the base" Phasma says and the stormtroopers move out to take control of the base.
Leia and the others are preparing for a last stand inside the base, building a makeshift fortification and holding their blasters ready.
C-3PO turns to Leia. "Your highness, I just wanted to say what an immense honor it has been to have served you."
"Don't worry, 3PO" Leia says, blaster in hand. "It will be alright."
"General Organa" a voice is heard over a communicator. "General Organa, are you there?"
Leia picks up the communicator. "This is general Organa. Who is this?"
The Falcon flies in low over the planet. Onboard, Finn is speaking over the communicator.
"General! This is Finn! We're coming in with the Falcon. We're touching down a mile south of your base. Get everyone out, now, while you still have a chance. We'll get you out of here."
The remaining Resistance-fighters get renewed hope.
"We'll be there!" Leia says and then turns to the others. "Come on, what are you waiting for!"
They all pick up their gear and hurry.
The Falcon comes in for a landing in the forest and Finn and Rey exits. They run up a hill and see the base-area. They can see a fire-fight going on halfway between the base and the Falcon.
"Oh no" Finn says. "The First Order has caught up to them."
"We have to help them!" Rey says and the two of them hurry off.
The Resistance is conducting a fighting-retreat. Phasma leads the stormtroopers chasing the Resistance; Phasma takes aim and fires her gun two times and kills two resistance-fighters. Leia in turn picks up a grenade from a fallen soldier and throws it at the stormtroopers, killing several of them.
Rey and Finn hurry through the terrain to reach the struggling Resistance-fighters. But Rey stops suddenly.
"Rey? What are you doing?" Finn asks.
"We're not alone" she tells him.
Then Rey is flung through the air and hits a large rock-formation and gets knocked unconscious. Finn doesn't know what to make of it. He turns and finds himself facing Kylo Ren, standing only thirty feet away. Finn takes aim with his blaster, but Kylo pulls the weapon from Finn and its flies off and disappears in the difficult terrain. Kylo walks towards Finn and activates his lightsaber. Finn retrieves Lukes old lightsaber and ignites it and prepares himself for a fight. Kylo stops and looks at Finns weapon with a great deal of surprise.
"That belongs to me!" Kylo then says.
"Come get it!" Finn growls.
At this point, Rey is waking up and she looks over just as Kylo steps up to Finn and begins a series of attacks. Finn struggles to keep up. Kylo is toying with him and after a short, one-sided fight, Kylo cuts open Finns back. Kylo gives Finn a brief glance, before he bends over to pick up Lukes lightsaber. As he is about to grab it, it flies off and Kylo looks up; Lukes lightsaber is held by Rey! She takes her eyes away from the weapon and focus on Kylo and ignites the lightsaber. Kylo ignites his own, but his free hand moves to the wound in his gut from Chewies crossbow; blood dripping onto the ground. Rey sees this and sees her chance and charges in! Kylo parries her attacks with relative ease.
"You have much to learn" Kylo says.
"Monster!" Rey growls and attacks.
Kylo is on the defensive but is in no danger.
"You're a good fighter" Kylo says. "I'm sure your skills were impressive on Jakku. Sadly, you are only a shadow of what you could have been."
Kylo goes on the offensive, Rey struggles to keep up and is forced to distance herself to him. Kylo walks after her, confidently despite his severe wound, while Rey is doing her best not to succumb to fear.
"Good" Kylo says. "Your anger makes you strong. Rely on it. It will keep you alive. Soon, the anger will turn to hatred. And that's when you will experience real power. I can teach you. I can show you the ways of the Force."
The fight continues, with Kylo having the upper hand. They end up with blades locked, lightsabers burning only inches from their faces. Kylos crossguard stabs Reys shoulder and she falls over from the pain.
"I can help you unleash it!" Kylo tells her. "I will help you listen to it. Help you to trust it. Teach you to make the Force obey your commands and let you trust it to control your actions."
Rey sighs. Closes her eyes and connects in a way she could never have dreamed of with the mystical energies of the universe. As she opens her eyes, she is filled with renewed confidence. Rey attacks! Powerful attacks that drains Kylo of his strength with each parry. Rey strikes Kylos blade to the side and then lands a blow straight across Kylos face. Kylo falls, his face badly injured, one eye damaged. Rey moves up to finish Kylo.
"Do it!" Kylo challenges her. "Do it! Trust your hatred and do it!"
Rey pauses, looks up and sees the Resistance coming running, firing their weapons at the following stormtroopers. Rey leaves Kylo and runs over to the Resistance and joins them.
"This way!" Rey tells them and Leia and the others follow her. As they come across Finn, Rey pleads to the others. "Help me!" She gets help to carry the wounded Finn.
They reach the Falcon and everyone run onboard and the Falcon takes off and heads for the skies.
Phasma and a very wounded Kylo Ren, wounded by Chewie and a great scar across his face that has destroyed an eye, is standing on a ridge and watches the Falcon leave the planet.
Onboard the Falcon, the survivors are relieved to be alive. Rey is tending the wounded and unconscious Finn.
C-3PO sums it up with, "Thank the maker."
Leia and Chewie find each other and embrace in an emotional hug. Chewie growls.
"I know" Leia says. "I miss him too."
A large Republic fleet flies through space. Onboard, a large meeting is held and Republic officers and Resistance officers are present, including Ackbar, Leia, Poe, Rey and Chewie.
Ackbar addresses everyone present. "The First Order has launched an aggressive attack along the border and have invaded three dozen systems. The destruction of the Starkiller is a great victory, but it will not stop Supreme Leader Creels armies."
Leia is next to speak. "We can only keep them at bay for so long. What we need to do is to strike at the Knights of Ren, and their leader."
Poe is not convinced. "How can we challenge Creel?"
Rey knows. "We must find Luke Skywalker. I will go. I will find him."
Leia looks at Rey and nods with a proud smile.
The Falcon leaves the fleet, Chewie and Rey in the cockpit.
The movie ends with Rey finding Luke, like the actual movie. The only difference is, that I would have placed R2D2 with Luke on the island.
THE END
So, in this version, Phasma is more involved in chasing our heroes, commanding troops and kicking Finns ass at Maz's castle. Speaking of Maz, I actually forgot to include her in the last parts after she left her castle with the Resistance… hmmm. Oh well! Starkiller is a ship obviously, which I think works better. Kylo isn't Ben Solo but Jacen Solo, that just makes more sense to me.
On the subject of Kylo. In Reys Force Vision, it appears as if Kylo saves Rey from being killed by a Knight of Ren. So, in this version, the Rey-theory is that Rey is a student at Skywalkers Temple, but Kylo rescues her from certain death and leaves her on Jakku so that Snoke/Creel will not find her. Rey is, in this version, Luke's daughter and Kylos niece. And of course, Kylo suspects that Rey is this girl, with the awakening and all. I mean, what is the point of the awakening if it has no relevance to the plot?
So, yeah… that's basically it.
