Rey POV

I ran crying through the castle as memories of my childhood flashed through my head.

"Rey, stay here and be a good girl," said a man.

"I want to go with you," I said.

"No, stay here," and he kissed my forehead. I remember screaming as Plutt held me by the arm as the ship took off, leaving me there on that god-forsaken planet. Now Finn was leaving me to.

"Rey," came a soft voice.

Did someone call my name? I turned to see Toby walking towards me. But the voice did not sound like Toby.

"Rey, what's wrong?" asked Toby in a deeper, clearer voice. No, the voice was not Toby.

"Fi-Finn is leaving. He is n-not part of the R-Resistance. He is St-Stormtrooper. He is leaving me."

Toby drew me into his arms, and the feeling felt so nice, for once being safe and comforted.

"He's a coward," Toby declared. "Ran from his duties as a Stormtrooper, and is running from his duties to the group now. You are better off without cowards, Rey."

"Rey," came the voice again.

I looked around to find it.

"What is it?" Toby asked.

"Someone is calling me. I am supposed to follow," I said.

"Is it Finn?" he asked, disgusted.

I shook my head, and said, "No, it's someone new."

"Lead the way."

I went in the direction of the voice, out of the cantena, and down a corridor. I looked back to see if I lost Toby, but he was following me, and was just as eager as I was to find the voice.

"Rey," it said, again.

"Can you hear it?" I asked.

"I can hear nothing. I am following you," he said.

He must think I am insane, I thought. But I followed the voice through Maz's Castle then it became very loud and turned to the left. I went in there and it was a small alcove with a bunch of junk all throughout the room.

"This must be Maz's treasure room," I whispered.

"I wonder which treasure is calling to you," he said.

"Rey," came the voice again, coming from a box across the room.

I shifted my way through the junk until I reached it. I looked over to Toby, "Do I dare?"

He shrugged, "We have come this far."

I opened the lid. The box was lined with red satin, and in the bottom, was a lightsaber hilt. I gently touched it, and visions filled my head.

A tall bald man in Jedi Robes talking to a bearded man, "If the prophecies are true, Obi-Wan, your apprentice is the only one who can restore balance to the Force."

A young man and a girl stand side by side by an overturned cart, he is using this lightsaber to deflect bullets and she is shooting droids. "Is this your diplomatic solution?" he asks. "No, it's aggressive negotiations," she says. They grin sharing a private joke.

A duel between a young man with dark curly hair who looks like Toby and a elderly man while another elderly man in chains looks on. The young man wins. "Good Anakin, Good," says the man in chains. "Kill him, now." The young man, Anakin, decapitated the elderly man.

"Your the sith Lord," said Anakin, drawing this lightsaber, and pointing it at another old man. "Are you going to kill me?" the old man said, wait, that is Palpatine. "I certainly would like to," Anakin said.

Anakin kneels before Palaptine. "I pledge myself to your teaching," he said.

The scene changed rapidly to Anakin slaughtering the Separtist, then the children in the Jedi Temple.

Suddenly, he and the woman he was kissing were on a volcanic planet, and she was pregnant.

"Come away with me, raise our child," she said.

"Liar," he screamed.

She fell to the ground.

I dropped the lightsaber, and fell to my knees. I just sat there panting.

"You all right?" asked Toby.

I looked up and saw him there.

"Touch that thing," I said.

Toby picked it up, and ignited it. The blue blade lit up the big room, and surrounded us in a peaceful blue light. I stared at it a little bit until my heart slowed down.

"It's just a lightsaber," he said. "What's wrong?"

"It's Anakin Skywalker's lightsaber."

Toby dropped it like it was diseased, and it clattered onto the ground.

"Did he… Did he really do all that? Kill all those people? The love of his life?"

"We don't know how she died," he said. "But yes, he really choked her."

"Did he really kill… the children?"

"Yes," he whispered.

"Why?" I asked.

"He was consumed by the Dark Side. Later he redeemed himself and came back to the Light side, but it was after many years of anguish and killing."

"How do you know all of this?"

"He force ghosted my uncle. They talk a lot. My mother is still mad at him, but he and my uncle are on great terms. My uncle forgave him."

"Forgave him? How?"

"He said that my grandfather was young and heartbroken. He was desperate and that made him foolish. He wanted to save my grandmother from death, and did not want to kill anyone."

"Wait, what? She was dying?"

"We are not really sure what happened. You see, back during the Old Republic, Jedi were not allowed to marry, but my grandfather and grandmother were in love and they did it anyway. Just so happened that they did that in the beginning of a war, so they could spend very little time together. But, they did see each other and somehow, she became pregnant with twins my mom and my uncle.

"Everything was fine until my granddad thought my mom was going to die in childbirth. He went everywhere to save her, and ended up going to a Sith. The Sith said if he became a Sith, my granddad could save my grandmom. It was a lie, that is impossible, but my granddad was desprate, so he did it. He became the feared Darth Vader. He was on a mission, and my grandmom went there to stop him. They argued and he hurt her, but did not kill her. She was rushed to a medical unit, and they operated on her to save my mom and uncle, but she died. My granddad spent eighteen years thinking he killed his family."

"That is so sad," I said.

"That is what I fear, being so drunk on power, I kill what I love."

I kissed his cheek, "You're not that kind of person."

He turned to look me square in the eyes. "Neither was he," he said.
