For the next few hours, the couple remained in the sleeping quarters. Ben had drifted off to sleep, but Rey had not found such peace yet with all the commotion that had happened.

She stared at the blank ceiling. Feeling Ben's warmth beside her but her mind leading elsewhere. She sat up quickly, ridden by anxious thoughts and guilt creeping in the back of her mind.

'Stop' She told herself taking deep breaths, 'this is not you'. She reminded herself

"Rey," she turned her head seeing Ben reach out for her. "What's wrong?" He asked

"Nothing. I just can't sleep." She told him.

"Come here," He said extending an arm and pulling Rey into his embrace. He then gently kissed her forehead and wrapped his arms around her soothingly. "Talk to me..." he said encouraging her to address her feelings

"Ben, I'm fine, really... it's just been a long day."

He sighed, "When you're ready, I'm here." He reminded sensing some distress in her thoughts. He tried to read her, but for the first time in a long time she shielded him from her thoughts. This concerned Ben, but he understood it had been a difficult day and hopefully she'd just need time.

In his arms, she was eventually able to find some sleep. Ben followed her shortly.

After a few hours, they finally made it to Ahch-To, and were stationed in the sky so that they could change and freshen up after hours in the same clothes. Ben was nervous at the thought of having to see his uncle again after that terrible confrontation on Crait. He knew Luke was a force projection, but he was still guilt-ridden by the fact he lost his life because of him. He may as well as killed Luke Skywalker.

"Ben," Rey interjected, "don't think like that, you didn't kill him." Rey told him while sitting on the bed waiting for him to get ready as he changed behind a privacy screen.

Ben sighed and put his shirt on. Walking out from behind the screen.

Rey was shocked when she saw him.

"Brown?!" She almost said with a gasp

"I thought I'd try something different... do you not like it?" He asked

"No, I love it. Maybe not as eye-catching as the black... but... I think it will do just fine for today." She spoke as she walked up to him and set her hands on his chest. Feeling the more rigid, natural-looking fabric underneath her fingers. It was nowhere near as polished and smooth as the leather, but it was nice in a way to see Ben in something more natural and relaxed.

"Ben..." she spoke, "I think this belongs to you." said reaching to her belt and detaching the Skywalker Legacy Lightsaber. "For the record, it would be nice to be a Solo someday... but I'm not a Skywalker, Ben... this is your story." She spoke handing him the Lightsaber of his uncle and grandfather before him. He took it and looked over it momentarily.

"My story is nothing without you." He said before setting it down on the table behind him.

"No... I'm just a part of it," she smiled and stepped toward him, "I'm still figuring out my own."

He wrapped his arms around her waist gently and searched her eyes.

"What?" She asked with a single laugh

"Your eyes." He smiled, "they're beautiful." Now completely laughing she rolled her eyes at his remark, and brought him into a light kiss to bring up his spirits for the day ahead. They were about to face a large portion of his past, but she would be there with him, always.

After a bit of time had passed, the two finally prepared to land the ship.

Rey was the first one to step out finding Luke appear in his ghost form.

"Hey, it's been a while," Luke said seeing her.

She looked straight at him, smiling until she saw his smile fade away. She turned, seeing Ben exiting the ship behind her, not prepared for the situation ahead.

"Oh kriff, what's going on here!?" Luke looked at the two

Both unable to respond, Ben simply resorted to taking Rey's hand.

Luke reacted just by looking away and shaking his head with an edge of unease. "Please tell me there aren't any more surprises."

"Ben turned... and..." she stopped

"Rey's... pregnant." Ben added

Luke looked at each of the two wide-eyed with an awkward expression spreading across his face.

"Ben, does your mother know about this?" Luke asked

"She knows." Ben assured him

"And she's been trying to help us... she even sent us here for some reason... so Ben didn't have to go back to the Resistance base... but we couldn't understand why she told us to come here specifically." Rey explained trying to break the awkwardness of the moment.

"I know why she sent you here." Luke said knowingly

"Please, tell us why." Rey asked

"First promise me there aren't any more surprises with the two of you..."

"None." Ben responded still not too content with the fact that he was in his Uncle's presence once again.

Luke sensed his nephew's doubts, but knew it wasn't the time to address them.

"Come with me." Luke told the pair as he began walking up a hill.

After entering a small hut, Luke handed Rey a different lightsaber.

"Leia's saber..." she realized

"We knew you'd return the legacy saber to its rightful owner once he returned, but you are still a Jedi Rey, and the daughter she never had. She would want you to carry on her legacy."

"But I'm not a Skywalker..." Rey explained, "I'm not even an Organa."

"Bloodline doesn't mean everything Rey. She sees in you what she never got to be. And she wants you to have everything you need to find your own place in all of this."

"Thank you, Master Skywalker." She said with a smile before attaching the saber to her belt.

"So what's this... whole thing about?" He asked in confusion looking toward the couple.

"We're together..." Ben said looking to Rey

Rey sighed, "and we are... expecting..." She trailed off awkwardly, "but it helped him in turning him." She explained

"I see." Luke responded, "well if my sister gives you two her blessing, I guess there is something positive that could come of all of this."

"Anakin Skywalker spoke to me..." Rey began, "he came and told me that Ben's and my child could be the chosen one. So we spent the last few days on Hoth together working everything out and Ben... just... turned." She said almost as if still amazed herself, "And we took down the First Order."

"What about Snoke?" Luke asked

"I killed him when I was Kylo Ren... to protect Rey."

"I guess that only leads us into more explanations..." Rey added, "he sympathized with me because of our communication through the force bond... and I sympathized with him, and our force bonds only continued. My only question is how is this still happening despite Snoke being dead. I know Ben and I are starting to understand how to open and close it, but how is it still able to be used?"

"You two are a dyad of the force..." he sighed, "which is why I was concerned that if you spent too much time together he would turn you. That's why I ran in."

"A dyad?" Rey inquired

"Two souls that create one, according to the force. It is one of the rarest things to occur... but this time it happened to be romantic, and all the more dangerous for both of you."

"Why dangerous? I turned." Ben clarified

"You were supposed to balance one another. Now, with both of you gaining power from the light... there is reason to believe you may face a great threat from the darkness at any time in the future."

"How would we prevent that?" Rey asked

"Balance between the two of you." Luke replied simply. Rey suddenly remembered what Anakin Skywalker had told her about allowing their child to be neutral in the force, without aligning themselves with the Jedi or Sith.

Rey nodded, believing she understood what their job was.

Just as Luke was about to address a separate issue, an audible crash of thunder came from outside the small hut.

Ben stood up quickly and looked out the door, watching the sky darken and thunder rattle through the sky.

"We can't fly through that Rey." He turned shutting the door.

"A storm… looks like you two are going to be stuck here anyway." Luke said

"It seems that we have bad luck with that." Rey mentioned to Ben.

Late that night, as Ben and Rey slept in the hut Luke had offered them, Rey began to toss and turn frantically in her sleep, immediately waking her up shaking and in tears.

Ben woke almost instantaneously when sensing her distress, moving into a sitting position and saw her hold her knees into her chest with tears streaming down her face.

"Rey... what is it?" He asked setting each of his hands on one of her arms trying to comfort her.

"Rey." He asked again when she shook her head in denial and buried her face into her knees.

"Don't block me out." He reminded sadly, feeling her mind shut off to him, "I'm here for you."

"There's something wrong with all of this..." she cried
