Nightfall was approaching quickly. Waiting for Rey to fall asleep, he took the blue lightsaber off the nightstand, and headed for the cell block. "You will die, Kylo. She will be mine."
Finally reaching the cell block, Finn ignited the blue blade. The pure light of Rey's saber contrasted the deep crimson in Finn's eyes. He was out for blood. He wanted the Supreme Leader to pay for his sins. The pain he had experienced on Starkiller was immeasureable, compared to Rey's preference for a cold-blooded killer. It stung, given that he was always there for her. He had fought to keep her safe, even against the wishes of the resistance. He wanted what was best for her. Kylo was not best for her. She deserved someone better, someone morally sound. Someone like himself.
Gazing upon Ben's sleeping form, Finn whispered, "You hurt the galaxy. Now I get to hurt you." Suddenly sensing that he was in danger, Ben quickly arose. He knew that look all too well. It was the look of fear. It was the same look Luke gave him, before he tried to kill him...
A dark figure loomed above the sleeping student. Sensing the darkness within his mind, the figure gave into his fear. He quickly ignited his lightsaber, but just as he did, he had regret. And consequences. "BEN, NO!" the figure shouted. But it was too late. The boy had given into his fear and destroyed everything. The temple was left in ruin. The boy was left with pain.
"Do it." Ben told Finn. He deserved it. After all, he had killed many of the ones he loved. Including his father. The deed he was promised that would seal his soul into darkness. Rather, it split his soul further into the light. Into hope. But that was all gone now. He was about to die by the hand of fear. Without Rey.
Rey, sensing something wasn't right, rushed to the cell block. As she approached Ben's cell, she found him writhing on the floor in agony. He was losing blood at an unprecedented rate. Quickly healing him, Rey asked, angry, "Who has done this to you?" Ben, gasping, slowly answered, "Finn."
Rey was furious. She had trusted Finn. Finn was the first person she had officially met on her travels. He had kept her calm during the weary days with the resistance. Except, she also had Ben. Ben, the boy she had known in her dreams since birth. The first time she had seen his face, she was utterly shocked. She felt betrayed. How could the tortured soul in her dreams become a despicable creature in a mask? It took her a while to see past the darkness, but she managed to do it somehow. The passionate kiss they had shared on Exogul all but sealed their fate. They made each other whole in the force. She had lost Ben once, to the pit. She would not lose him again.
Acting quickly, Rey pressed her hand unto his wounds. Focusing all of her might on transferring her life to Ben, she meditated. The wound began to close, and Ben felt his breathing become less labored. "I should have been more alert. I should have sensed his presence." Rey scolded herself. How had she been so careless as to let down her guard? Her friends saw Ben as an enemy, even though he had risked his life for their cause. She knew it didn't excuse him from the atrocities he had committed as Kylo Ren, but it distressed her that they were unwilling to forgive to the point of murder.
"I thought you would be safe here." Rey said, clearly distressed. "We should've just went back." "To Naboo?" Ben asked. He knew Rey would be in danger if they were to escape together, so he tried to convince her otherwise. "Rey, I can't let you risk your own life to save me." Ben pleaded. "You've already shown me more mercy than I deserve. I can't risk losing you again."
"I have to do this, Ben." Rey replied, firmly. "If you died, my soul would feel incomplete. I love you." In his father's words, he replied, "I know." Rey made a plan for the pair to escape. Chewie would break Ben out of the cell, and would join them on their travels. They planned to make a stop on Kashyyk, so he could retire with his family. After a long and brutal war, at least he could finally return home. Ben was eternally grateful to his uncle, especially since he had forgiven him so easily. He knew it was difficult for Chewie not having Han around, especially since he was the murderer.
The plan was set in motion. At midnight, Chewie escorted Ben out of his cell, citing a "prisoner interrogation". He pretended to hurl insults at his nephew, hoping to fool the resistance guards on duty. Luckily, they couldn't understand him, so it was fairly easy to convince them. Ben was finally reunited with Rey. They could finally start a new life together.
