Chapter Eight - Disaster and Awkward Reunions; Her Least Two Favorite Things

"We found him, Commander." A man shouted running up, slightly out of breath. Poe had just wrapped up in the tank, and was feeling about a thousand times better. It didn't hurt to move anymore. He had found Seraphine hiding in a corner waiting for the General to wrap up with some meetings so they could grab a meal before she left, and insisted on walking her to a better place for her to wait. They both turned to the man who ran up to him. "Your BB-8 unit, we found him. He's on Takodana."

Poe smiled widely. "That is amazing news. Round up the men, we are going to get him." The men nodded, and then ran off again. Poe glanced back at the blonde, "Keep on going, it's the second right."

Seraphine nodded and then replied, "Have fun on your little rescue mission."

"Not a stay safe." Poe teased.

Seraphine shrugged. "I brought you back alive, I got paid. It ain't my worry what you what you do with your life after that." Poe rolled her eyes and turned before she spoke up again. "Dameron." He turned to look at her. "Stay safe. And try to not get captured by the First Order, hiring me is kind of expensive. Won't want to have to save you again." She smiled at him. A real smile.

Poe laughed and nodded before turning away and taking a few more steps. Then he stopped, standing in the middle of the hallway his wheels turning.

He had never seen her smile like that before, it made his heart hurt. He didn't know if she would still be here when he came back. Hell, he didn't even know if he was going to be coming back. The life he chose involved risk, he could get shot down almost any day. He could die and never see her again.

He had sworn to never live life with regrets. He didn't have time for it.

Before he had even completely processed his decision, he had already turned and taken the steps. Before he could really think, his lips were on hers. And then he could only think of one thing.

Heaven.

She tasted like heaven.

It was the only way he could describe it.

Heaven.

And with that he was gone, running down the hallway, leaving a slightly confused Seraphine behind him. "What the fuck." She muttered, before starting to walk to where Poe had sent her.

She hadn't actually made it to the room when she heard her name. "Seraphine." She turned and look at the General. "Something came up, and I need to go."

"Takodana." She replied, not being really able to pronounce the word right with her accent. She knew where it was, but had never been able to go herself.

Leia wasn't even surprised that she knew that. Seraphine always had an habit of always knowing what was going on, even as a child. She was wiser than her years and had a habit of eavesdropping. "Care to join me."

Seraphine shrugged and replied, "Why not. I can be your bodyguard, just like old times."

"Just like old times." Leia repeated chuckling. "What is with the sudden enthusiasm, I thought you wanted to have nothing to do with our resistance?"

Seraphine looped her arm in the older woman's one, and they begun to walk down the hallway. "I don't. But the people who have BB-8 also have the falcon."

Leia looked at her suddenly. "Was he with him."

Seraphine sighed and replied, "I'm not sure. I didn't see him in the video I saw. But I intend to find out."

(some time later, while in hyperspace)

"How are you Miss. Seraphine." C-3PO asked, looking at the blonde.

Seraphine smiled at the droid. "I am good C-3PO. Love the arm."

C-3PO looked at his red arm, and replied, "I don't." Seraphine simply laughed. Suddenly Leia gasped beside her.

"Leia what's wrong?" Seraphine asked, as the general begun to double over gasping for breath.

"All of those souls." Leia gasped, and Seraphine looked at her confused. "All those pour souls."

"They are gone." The navigator shouted as he begun to panic.

"What do you mean they are gone?" Seraphine shouted back, while trying to help Leia.

"The-the planets, they are gone. The republic. It-it's it's gone." The navigator sputtered, not knowing how to explain. "They are-are jus-st-sss-t just gone."

"Is anyone else reading this?" A voice came over the radio, the panic obvious in their voice.

"What could possibly be causing these kind of readings? That kind of shock wave, I've never seen anything like it before." A different one came across and the navigator and pilot simply glanced back at the general.

"This is command." A voice that Seraphine didn't recognize (Taslin Brance) came across the radio. "We are confirming the readings. General, the Republic command—the entire Hosnian system—it's all-gone."

"The whole system? What could do that?"

"It has to be the damn First Order."

"The Republic is gone?"

"What about all of the people who lived there?"

Seraphine ignored the panicked Resistance members as helped Leia resume her normal breathing. The woman had obviously been affected by the attack on the Hosnian system, probably some of that force mumble jumble bullshit. The Jedis were affected when stuff like this happened apparently, and so was anyone else force sensitive. Her attention turned back to the radio, when she recognized one of the voices.

"Everyone calm down!" But the Black leader's attempt was interrupted by the desperate voices from the pilots and other bases all talking at one. They were starting to give Seraphine and headache and she knew that it couldn't be doing anything to help Leia. They were just making things worse, panicking like that. What the hell did they think they signed up for? This was war.

She glanced at Leia who was staring at her. After making eye contact, Seraphine knew what Leia wanted her to do, but she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't sign up for this. It was supposed to be an simple catch up between friends. None of this bullshit. She stumped over to the cockpit and forcefully grabbed the radio out of the pilot who was attempting to talk over all of the commotion. All of the words were blurring together.

She took a deep breath and then shouted, "Shut the fuck up." Relatively quickly the line begun to fall silent, and she looked at the pilot surprised. "I can't believe that worked." He simply shrugged. She took a deep breathe and began again. "Listen up, fuckers, and welcome to glorious war. This is how it works. People die, get the hell over it. I ain't the best with inspiration speeches, if you want one, listen to pretty boy. But I will be real with you all. The mother fuckers in the First Order just blew up a whole system of planets and that is fucking terrifying. It really is. But if the Republic is gone, there is no one to stop the First Order. That is if you guys keep freaking out. So calm the fuck down. You are the Resistance. You are fighting against the First Order, you always have been. You guys are famous for getting out of situations that I don't even know how you get yourselves into. Like for real guys, how the fuck do you do that? How can someone be so damn unlucky and lucky at the same time?"

She glanced back at Leia who was lightly chuckling as she listened to Seraphine's rant. "Back on topic though. The First Order needs to be stopped. Those bastards need to pay for their crimes, to pay for all of the shit they have pulled over the years. They just murdered a shit ton of people. But if they win, no one is going to remember that. No one is going to be able too, because they will murder a shit ton more. They are probably gonna murder the whole god damn universe. It is your guys job to stop them. So do your fucking jobs. Win. And avenge those who have died. Fight for them. Win for them. It's simple."

She sighed and took a deep breath. "We can't save them. We can't save everyone, and they are gone. There's nothing we can do. But that doesn't mean they are forgotten. What they stood for remains, and the the First Order has to be stopped. And you guys can do it. The universe believes in you. The word Resistance brings hope to the victims, hope that the First Order will be stopped and the deaths of the innocents will be avenged. So win. And make them pay for what they did."

She was met by silence, before a chuckle came over the line. "Probably could have said it better, but I agree with her point."

Seraphine smirked. "Thank's pretty boy, now get out there and kick some First Order ass."

(after the battle on Takodana)

The ship slowly landed on what was left of Takodana after the battle. The members of the squad left aboard, quickly disembarked, the general not far behind them. Seraphine was speaking to the pilot when she noticed that Leia had stopped.

She stood up for a second looking confused on why Leia was just standing there.

"Goodness! Han Solo. It is I, C-3PO. You probably don't recognize me because of the red arm." Seraphine began to chuckle. Of course he was here. And of course, C-3PO was being his awkward self. "Look at who it is, did you see who it is… Oh. Uh. Hmm. Excuse me, Prin… General. Sorry. Come on BB-8, quickly." Oh BB-8 was here too. Wonderful, things are going quite well considering, all of the pieces falling together perfectly, almost too easily.

She slowly walked over to the entrance and watched the scene in front of her.

"You changed your hair." Han commented, standing very awkwardly, attempting to seem bigger than he was.

"Same jacket." Leia replied simply.

"No, new jacket." Han defended. It did look exactly like the old one though.

Chewy walked up and gave Leia a hug, and the two of them smiled at each other before Leia turned her attention back to Han.

"I saw him." Han confessed and Seraphine's heart dropped slightly. She can only imagine that Leia's did as well. "Leia, I saw our son." Han took a deep breath. "He was here."

Leia simply sighed and shook her head. Not knowing what to say she changed the topic. "I've seen someone else as well." She glanced back into the ship and Seraphine tentatively took a step out.

"Seraphine." Han smiled. "You look good."

"Thanks." Seraphine replied rubbing her arm slightly. "You do too." She giggled when Chewy pulled her into a tight hug. "Hi Chewy, I missed you."

"Come here, kid." Han sighed when Chewy let her go and Seraphine jumped down the ramp and within a few steps was within his arms. "A collection agent, huh. Thought I taught you better." He teased tucking her head under his chin.

"Hey it's pays the bills." Seraphine shot back pushing against him out of the hug in mock offense. "And I rather like being a collection agent."

"You sure it's paying the bills. You are tiny as always." Han asked looking her up and down.

"I eat." Seraphine replied, and Han raised his eyebrows. "I do!"

Han simply smiled at her, and when he turned to speak with Leia again, she lost interest. Instead she turned to look at the other man who was standing impatiently beside them. He noticed her gaze and quickly commented, "I am Finn."

"Finn?" She repeated and the man nodded. "Huh. How the fuck do you guys always survive no matter what stupid stunts you pull?"

Finn simply looked at her confused but before he ask anything one of the stormtroopers beside them begun to move and raise his blaster. Before he could even shout a warning, Seraphine had already moved. She was upon him in seconds and had kicked the blaster out of his hand. She then kicked him in the side. And kicked him again. And kicked him again. After two more solid kicks in the gut, she huffed and then turned back to the others.

Han, Leia, and Finn were all just look at her. "What?" She questioned. She pointed up to the sky. "Assholes just committed mass genocide, that gives me an excuse to kick them when they are down." When the stormtrooper began to move beside her, she kicked him again, and this time he just layed there.


Author's Note: "I need a weapon" and "you have one" is like an awfully hilarious line. Just saying. One of my favorite parts of the whole movie. I also rewatched the movie because this was the first time the plots overlapped and I needed more than just my notes, and I FORGOT HOW MUCH I LOVE IT. AHHHH. I mean I knew I loved it, just forgot how much.

Sneak Peak into Chapter Nine (Do let me know if you hate me more after this Sneak Peak, or more after the one for this chapter, hehehe)


"Poe?"

"Finn?"

"Poe Dameron, you're alive?"

"Buddy! So are you!"

Seraphine smirked as she walked past the men hug and went to go say hi to BB-8. The little droid was the cutest thing that she had ever seen. And how did he go up and down stairs! (OKAY HAVE YOU SEEN THE WAY BB-8 GOES UP AND DOWN STAIRS?) So cute. She glanced back at the reunion just in time to hear,

"That's my jacket." Finn awkward begun to take it off before Poe stopped him. "No, no, no. Keep it. It suits you. You're a good man, Finn."

"Poe, I need your help." Finn commented patting the other man's shoulder.

"Anything, buddy, what can I do for you?" Poe replied concerned.

"My friend, Rey. She helped me save BB-8. The First Order, they have her. We have to save her." Finn explained.

Poe nodded slowly, only imagining that they were doing to the poor girl. Trying not to remember what they had done to him. "I'll see what I can do, buddy."

Finn gestured to Seraphine who was standing by them, still talking to BB-8. "Do you think the Collection Agent you mentioned has any sway with the Generals? She knows them."

Seraphine looked up, surprised she was being mentioned in the conversation. Poe was a Commander, he must have more say then her. Poe looked at her confused as well. He also knew he had more sway, even if Finn didn't, but this brought up something else that he had been wondering about. "Yeah, Seraphine, both General Organa and Han Solo are old friends of yours?"

Seraphine stood up and started to awkwardly sway on her feet. "Yeah, you could say that?" She knew that they would find about it eventually, those that recognized her were already whispering about it.

"You could say what." Poe questioned.

"Wellllllll." She sighed. "You know those ten years that I told you about, or at least sort of barely mentioned. That I moved from place to place and got really close to having a family." Poe nodded. "During that time, well, I kind of went by the name Seraphine Solo."
