"You're going to break Rey out of Plutt's?" Ben snorted, crossing his arms over his chest at the thought. He shook his head at Finn. He held up a finger, whispered "Revelare Mortuis," and Rey appeared beside him. "You really think you'll be able to get her body out?"

"She's real!" Finn gasped, staring at Rey standing beside Ben in his hospital room.

"I am. It takes a little magic to see me, but I am," she affirmed.

He grinned and looked pointedly at Ben. "I'm the best choice for this! Plutt doesn't know who I am. He won't be paying attention to me, and he won't be paying attention to people without magic. He has no reason to eat me."

Ben slowly lowered his arms. "You're right." He nodded and began pacing. "That could work."

Rose nodded. "I'll drive him. He can't get her out on his mangled bike."

"I'll make sure you get a new bike," Ben assured. "But yes, that could work. I'll get you a spell to knock her out, make sure that she's not tethered to anything there."

"You don't think she'll come willingly?" Rose wondered.

Rey shrugged. "I wouldn't know. I can come with you to see if I can help. I just have to stay out of sight of Plutt."

"Am I interrupting something?" Holdo asked from the doorway.

"Nothing at all, Amilyn," Ben assured, stepping back.

She nodded and entered the room, pulling a folder from her bag and handing it to Finn. "We're all so happy that you're recovering, Finn," she greeted. "The school administration has set up a fundraiser, and I wanted to share this with you."

Finn took the folder and curiously opened it to see a letter outlining everything. He suddenly put a hand over his mouth. "For everything?"

Holdo beamed. "Your entire education while you are enrolled at our campus. Your entire Bachelor's degree, all fees, all books and materials."

"Finn! That's amazing!" Rose squealed.

Holdo nodded to Rose. "We had so many contributions from the community that everything was covered for him. He will be able to receive his education and continue whenever he is ready to take it on."

"Thank you so much, Ms. Holdo," Finn said, rubbing his eyes. "This is amazing!"

"It's our pleasure, Finn." She nodded to Ben. "May I speak with you for a moment?"

Ben nodded and followed her down the hall.

"I brought the information you and Rose brought up to the police. I do remember seeing the medallion on Paige's body during the viewing. They looked into it, and Paige Tico's grave is empty."

Ben stared at Holdo, wondering what she was going to say next until he realized that this was brand new information to her. He feigned surprise. "Empty? Paige Tico's body isn't buried where it's supposed to be?"

Holdo shook her head. "The police have investigated Armitage's apartment. His vehicle was still there. His apartment was empty but showed no signs of him leaving. No clothes or luggage gone. All important documents were left. Even his wallet was left beside his keys. It seemed like he disappeared." She took a breath. "And they searched the property, and found his storage closet, where there was evidence of keeping a dead body there for some time, and the lab results do suggest that it was Paige Tico's body."

Ben made his face solemn. "That's awful."

"They have a warrant out for Armitage, but I haven't been able to get a hold of him. It's horrifying that..." Holdo put a hand over her mouth. "Sorry, this is hard for me."

Ben nodded and set a hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry to hear that. It is hard for everyone. Have you told Rose?"

Holdo shook her head. "Not yet, but the police do have her number. She should be alerted soon."

"And if Armitage Hux is never found?"

Holdo shook her head again. "I'm no legal expert."

Ben nodded. "Thank you for letting me know. I knew I recognized the medallion. I didn't know it would open up this can of worms."

"I appreciate it. Armitage will no longer be teaching here regardless though." Holdo laughed. "I came to tell you because his car had a lot of damage on the front bumper."

"Wait, he doesn't have LED headlights, does he?"

Holdo nodded. "They believe he may have been your hit and run."

Ben nodded. "That is unfortunate."

"I only know all this because I'm friends with the detective who first looked into Paige's case. You can't spread these things around, Ben, but I trust you. You aren't the gossipy sort."

"I'll keep them quiet, Holdo."
