"The dark side?" Rey asked. "I don't understand, I thought you hated it?"
"I do," he said in a soft voice. "But I made a mistake that I can't take back, and it drove him to the dark side,"
"Oh," she said. "Is this why you were so against getting another padawan?"
He nodded.
"Can we talk about my son now?" Senator Leia asked. "You said he knew what he was doing,"
"I think so anyways. There was two large force signatures in the outer rim, with smaller force signatures around them,"
"And you think one of them is Ben?"
"I know it is, it could only be him,"
"And he's finally gotten himself a Sith master it seems, as well as his own apprentices given all the smaller dots,"
"So my son is in charge of a sith army?"
"It's the only thing that makes sense,"
Senator Leia went silent. Rey didn't need the force to know what she was feeling; a mix of grief and guilt.
"I think I might know what army he is using. It has to be the First Order,"
"The First Order?" Rey asked.
"It's a group of old empire supporters that has been causing problems in the outer rim for a few months now,"
"Why haven't you gotten rid of them yet?" Master Luke asked.
"I've tried, but there is more pressing matters to the senate, plus the outer rim is hard to police, so we can't just go to their base and blow it up,"
"Why can't we?" Rey asked. "The hologron showed us where they are, can't we just go get them now?"
"We could actually do that!" Senator Leia said. "I can get the men and ships, and Luke you can help take down the Sith master, maybe we can even redeem Be-"
"No," Master Luke said. "I already failed Ben once, I will not be hurting him again,"
"But we're not planning on hurting him! We're going to save him!"
"If you're trying to save him, then I will only make that impossible,"
"Luke. . ."
"But Master Luke," Rey spoke up "It's the only place where we can find another padawan, so we have to go. Maybe we one of them can tell us more information,"
Rey and Senator Leia looked eagerly as they waited for him to speak.
"Fine, I will go, but I will not be the one to confront Ben,"
Senator Leia smiled and got up. "Wonderful, I'll get everything ready and call Han"
She paused before leaving the room. "And thank you for coming back and helping out, I really apricate it,"
