"We are back with Rey and I decided to rewrite the scenes involving Rey Force connecting with Kylo Ren for the first time and using the Lightsaber on the island reason why is cause I want Rey to actually be able to fully connect with the Force and to be honest i quite annoyed me when Rey sliced the rock and the attempted humour from it so I want to make it mean something and make it matter more so please enjoy :)

Chapter 25: The Second Lesson

Rey was sitting with her legs crossed back on the rock early hours of the morning trying to find a balance of peace and with the failure of her first test she knew she had to be stronger.

She took a deep breath focusing on her feelings "life, death and decay that feeds new life, warmth, cold, peace...love".

Rey slowly lowered her head "The Balance..".

She was in control of her thoughts and was very careful after what happened last time after she almost went to dark but soon her thoughts where interrupted by something.

"Who is there.." Rey frowned as her eyes remained shut and she tried to figure out what was going on.

Meanwhile back at Snoke's ship Kylo Ren was having the last of his stitchings removed and he soon felt something in the Force and he raised his hand telling the droid to stop as he looked around the room.

Kylo Ren knew something wasnt right as he looked left and right and soon he saw someone standing in front of him, it was Rey.

Rey's eyes snapped open as she saw her enemy standing at the edge of the cliff looking at her with the same shocked expression and without hesitation Rey quickly pulled out her handgun and shot at Kylo Ren and he gasped and fell to the ground as Rey quickly rolled behind the rock with her weapon aimed at him.

Kylo Ren breathed heavly as he got up from his seat and he walked forward as he watched Rey back away from him and it was strange for him cause she was standing there in the same room with him.

Rey took a few steps back with her weapon still on her enemy as he looked around and soon he turned back to her and raised his hand "You will bring Luke Skywalker to me" he ordered.

But nothing happened as Rey looked at her foe with no fear and thats when Kylo Ren realised his mind trick had no effect and he lowered his hand.

"Your not doing this the effort will kill you.." Kylo figured it out as he looked around the room he was in "Can you see my surroundings?".

"Your gonna pay for what you did" Rey spat at him with hate but Kylo Ren just looked back at her.

"I cant see yours, its just you" Kylo Ren frowned and Rey was confused on why this was happening.

"Wait...this is something else" Kylo Ren finally stated.

Rey quickly looked behind her and heard footsteps coming from inside the cave entrance and snapped her head back to Kylo Ren and she saw his eyes look past her.

"Luke..." Kylo Ren called to his uncle.

"What was that about" Luke came into view and Rey looked back at Luke who was alerted by the blast of her weapon and she looked back in front of her and saw Kylo Ren gone and she knew this wasnt going to be the last time.

"Rey what happened?" Luke waited for her answer.

Rey controlled her breathing and turned back to Luke "I..was meditating and I was alerted by a sound and I just reacted, turns out it was just one of the birds".

"I see..." Luke slowly approached Rey and looked out to the ocean.

"Get your things and come with me" Luke turned around and headed back into the cave and Rey quickly grabbed her bag and staff and followed Luke where ever he went.

The walk was about twenty minutes until they came to another cliff which had for tall rocks in a circle which were spaced out and Luke turned to Rey.

"This is your second lesson" Luke stated and Rey looked at him.

"What is this test about?" Rey looked back down at the tall rocks.

"Control, wielding a lightsaber is one thing but how you use it is what makes you a Jedi...in battle a Jedi must be able to protect and attack without even thinking and yet be aware of their surroundings" Luke explained as Rey continued to look at the rocks.

"So I guess I have to stand in the middle of those rocks?" Rey finally looked back at Luke.

Luke nodded "Thats right but the trick is to be able to swing and lunge without hitting those rocks".

Rey smiled "Seems simple enough".

"With your eyes closed" Luke quickly responded.

Rey frowned "What? how am I supposed to see what I am doing?".

Luke shook his head "When it comes to the Force you vision is nothing compared to it, allow it to be your eyes, allow it to guide you".

Rey once felt confident but now she was worried and Luke sensed it "Dont let the fear of failure cloud your mind, cause once you allow that to happen you would have failed before you even started."

Rey slowly nodded and made her way down the hill to the circle of tall rocks and Luke watched on from the hill.

Rey slowly approached the middle and placed her bag down and looked at the rocks around her as she took hold of her staff.

Rey took a few deep breaths and controlled herself and she soon closed her eyes and took a defensive stance and just focused and Luke took a few steps forward watching her.

Rey swinged her staff and it hit one of the rocks and she opened her eyes.

"Dont think, Just breath" Luke called from the hill.

She closed her eyes again and breathed slowly and then swinged a few times and managed not to hit the rocks but soon hit a rock again on her third swing and she gritted her teeth.

"You lost focus, you have to keep it at all times" Luke called out.

The lesson went on for twenty minutes and Luke continued to watch as Rey couldnt do five swings without hitting a rock and once again she did it again on her first swing after god knows how many attempts and her frustration was getting the better of her and she opened her eyes and rubbed her forehead as her body was dripping with sweat.

Luke knew she was frustrated and the chances of her regaining focus was gonna be difficult so he gave up for the day and slowly turned away and began to walk.

Rey looked around and saw Luke starting to walk away and she closed her eyes and fell to her knees and dropped her staff and rubbed her forehead again as she realised she just failed her second test.

"How am I supposed to do this..." Rey sighed to herself unable to understand why she was failing but it didnt matter cause for all she knew Luke was no longer interested in continuing the lesson so she went to pick up her bag and thats when she saw the Luke's Lightsaber hanging out her bag and she couldnt help but look at it.

Rey knew if she didnt fight hard enough everyone she knew would be doomed and she slowly closed her eyes thinking of those she loved "You give me strength..you all do".

She finally opened her eyes and pushed her staff to the side and slowly picked up the Lightsaber from her bag and stood up holding it in front of her and after a few moments she ignited it and looked at the beautiful blue light.

Luke stopped in his tracks as he heard a Lightsaber ignite and he slowly turned around and saw Rey holding the Lightsaber and he took a few steps forward watching her.

"Come on Rey..." Luke whispered.

Rey slowly looked at the tall rocks around her and soon she came to a stop and closed her eyes once again and tilted the lightsaber at an angle and just breathed as the heat of the sun hit her skin.

Rey slowly opened her mouth abit and she finally swinged in multiple directions and it diffrent styles and Luke looked on as she continued.

She swinged, lunged and swinged again and she moved around at a quick speed turning around every now and then and not once did she graze the rocks with her Lightsaber and she kept swinging and swinging as she moved quicker and quicker while still keeping her eyes closed.

Luke made his way down the hill as he watched Rey move so smoothly and trusting the Force and seeing her move without hesitation finally made him realise...she trusted The Force.

Rey kept swinging and now twirled every now and then making the moves quicker and she even got closer to the rocks but not once did she hit them and she made one final swing and ended up back in the centre of the rocks and still was in a defensive stance and after a few seconds she opened her eyes and turned off her lightsaber and took a deep breath as she stood up straight and she looked at the rocks and saw non of the rocks were hit and she smiled and soon she looked back at Luke who just looked at her and her smile slowly dropped and turned to him.

"Well done Rey, you finally did it" Luke finally gave a small smile and turned away and Rey finally smiled again and then looked at her Lightsaber knowing there may still be hope for her to fight back against The First Order and Kylo Ren.

A storm was finally coming to the Island so Rey and Luke headed up the mountain back to the cave and as Rey followed Luke from a distance she suddenly stopped and she could hear whispers in her ears and she slowly turned around and looked in the distance and saw a small part of the island covered by fog.

Luke who was on higher ground looked back and saw Rey starting to walk down the mountain.

"Where are you going?" Luke whispered to himself.

Rey's mind was filled with echoed voices as she walked down the mountain and just drawn to what was calling her and soon she came to a path leading into the fog and she felt cold as the voices got louder and louder thats when she knew she was getting closer.

Rey continued to follow the path through the fog and soon she came to a small entrance leading into a tree and the voices drew her into what ever was in there, she slowly took a deep breath and entered the tree and it made her feel extremely cold as she headed deeper inside and thats when she saw something at the end of the cave.

Rey slowly approached the end of the tree and she saw a few books on a wooden stand and she was just drawn to it and she slowly raised her hand to touch them.

"Who are you?" She looked back to the entrance and saw Luke standing there.

"I know this place" Rey spoke quietly as she looked at Luke as he slowly entered the cave.

Luke looked around the tree and ran his hand on the wood that was in the wall "Built a thousand generations ago".

Rey watch Luke as he walked past her and pulled out a book from the stand "To keep these, the original Jedi texts".

Rey watched him open the book and ran his hand on a symbol "What is that symbol?".

"The Grey Jedi Code, the balance between the dark and the light" Luke motioned her to stand near him and she came close and watched his finger as he read out something.

"There is only The Force".

"There Is a Balance between Light and Dark"

"Passion, yet Restraint".

"Strength and Knowledge".

"There is Power in Serenity".

"Victory is only found in bringing The Force back into Harmony"

"Passion and Strength are excerised through".

"Knowledge and Serenity".

"To bring back Balance, one must strike Hard and Fast".

"One must use power to break the opponent"

"Power requires Strength to bring back Harmony".

"Strike too hard and Chaos is Born".

"Knowledge teaches the restraint to keep the Balance".

Rey listened to every word Luke said.

"Just like me they are the last of the Jedi Religion" Luke stated.

Rey looked away and slowly walked and Luke turned to her as she left his side "You said you seen this place, you've seen this island".

Rey looked up at the ceiling "Only in dreams..".

"Who are you?" Luke now realised there was more to Rey then he originally thought.

"I told you The Resistance sent me" Rey looked around the tree.

"Thats no excuse Rey, what is special about you..tell me" Luke moved away from the books and just looked at Rey.

"Where are you from?" Luke questioned.

Rey looked to the ground "I'm from nowhere..".

Luke shook his head "No ones from nowhere Rey, I have seen your mind the people you care about and you hold love closer to your heart then anything else".

Rey looked to Luke "Whats that suppossed to mean?".

"I cant answer that, only you can...but these dreams, these powers...you knew you had them even before your journey began didnt you" Luke examined her movements as he spoke.

Luke could see her emotions come to the surface "Why are you here?".

"The Resistanc-" Rey went to speak but Luke cut her off.

"Stop making excuses Rey, why are you here?". Luke asked again in a more serious tone.

Rey looked at Luke knowing she wasnt fooling him and after a few instence seconds she finally spoke.

"You're right, something inside of me has always been there and now its awakened...and I'm afriad" Rey admitted as Luke listened on.

"Fear is the one thing you must never hold Rey, if you have fear you will never be able to protect those you love" Luke stated.

"Thats why we need you, I need you...to bring the balance back" Rey spoke quietly.

Luke closed his eyes and turned away back to the books and lowered his head "I'm not going back Rey".

Rey frowned in suprise "What...you put me through all this and tell me you are not coming".

"I cant help Rey" Luke admitted.

Rey came to him and stood in front of him "Why not, the Luke Skywalker I heard would never abandon hope I came here believing that..the galaxy believes that, Leia believes that".

"I unleashed darkness on the galaxy Rey I am not the one they need, I came here to die" Luke turned around and headed for the exit of the tree and Rey looked to the floor and just looked at it.

"Do you still believe it?" Rey quietly asked and Luke stopped at the entrance and took a deep breath and looked back at her.

"I believed destroying the Sith would bring peace to the Galaxy but now I only know one truth.." Luke stated and Rey slowly looked up at Luke.

"In order for the galaxy to truly have peace, The Sith and The Jedi...must end" Luke left the tree leaving Rey inside.

Rey tried to process what Luke said and she slowly sat down on the floor with her back to the wall and she was just lost and didnt know what to do now knowing that Luke wasnt coming back.

Rey slowly pulled out her handgun and held it and examined the "Little Wing" scratched into the handle and she smiled as she traced her finger on the writing and it seemed to calm her.

"Little Wing...I hope you are alright, I miss you" Rey said to herself as she continued to run her finger on the writing while listening to the storm outside.

"The reading of The Gray Jedi was legit and I was quite disappointed we didn't get any insight from Luke, it wouldn't have hurt the film is he read something out to Rey and of course we finally see Rey miss Evelyn and even call her Little Wing lol tell me what you think hell I would love to hear any ideas from you guys I would defo put your ideas in the story :)
