Finn woke up in the medical bay on the Resistance cruiser. He found himself in a capsule with tubes connected to his medical suit. Feeling claustrophobic, he ripped open the capsule and then tore at his medical suit. With the suit off, he was in a white one-piece suit. He immediately looked for the door and entered the hallway.

"Oh, you're awake," a Resistance fighter smiled at him.

Finn rushed the man, took his pistol, and placed it towards his face. "Take me to the bridge," he ordered him.

Poe came onto the bridge and was greeted by Leia. "Excellent, Poe," she said pleased with him.

"You keep things close to the chest," Poe remarked.

"Trust me, Poe. I've been doing this a lot longer than you have," she chuckled.

"Absolutely," Poe agreed.

Fin barged onto the bridge with his hostage. He fired on his hostage wounding him and then pointed it at Leia. His expression was wide-eyed and confused.

"Finn?" Poe wondered.

"He's devolved back to his original programming," Leia realized.

Poe walked in front of Leia towards Finn. "Look, you're not a Stormtrooper anymore. You're free now. Remember when we escaped and crashed on Jakku? You helped us lower the shields on Starkiller base. You're a hero."

Finn said nothing, his arm shaking as he pulled on the trigger of his pistol. "Don't do this, Finn. This isn't you anymore," Poe said getting closer to him.

Finn suddenly fired at Leia. "No!" Poe shouted as he fired.

The beam went straight towards Leia's hand and hovered just above her skin. With her other hand, she forced the blaster out of his hand. The beam of light slowly faded and then disappeared in Leia's palm. Without his blaster, Finn charged Leia. Poe attempted to stop him but was tossed aside. Leia held out her hand and dropped him to the floor.

"Get him off my bridge," Leia said annoyed.

Rey approached Luke Skywalker with his lightsaber in her hand to give back to him. He looked at her with sad eyes but felt something familiar about this girl. She came closer to him and offered it to him.

"No," he said simply and walked off.

"Master Skywalker," Rey said walking after him. She hid her surprise as she hoped there was some kind of explanation. Perhaps the Jedi Master was testing her resolve as a student.

Rey found a village of stone huts and figured Luke must be in one of them. Checking each one, she came to the last one. "Master Skywalker. I am with the Resistance. Your sister Leia sent me. We need your help," she said through the door.

She then pounded on the door with her staff. "Hello?" she called out to him.

When there was no reply, she explored the island seeing a colony of porgs curiously coming next to her. Frustrated, she went back to the Millennium Falcon to get Chewie. The Wookie easily pushed the door through allowing them inside the hut. Chewy roared but there was no one inside the hut. He looked at Rey confused.

"He was here. I know he was here," she said defensively.

"Already breaking my door," Luke said behind them.

"I'm sorry, but we need your help," Rey said to him.

"Chewie? What are you doing here?" Luke asked amused.

Chewie growled in response. "How did you find me?" Luke asked Rey.

"Long story. We brought the Millennium Falcon," Rey said.

"The Falcon? Where's Han?" Luke asked concerned.

"He was betrayed and murdered by Kylo Ren. I saw him die," Rey said.

Luke gave her a look of grief and sorrow. "I felt my sister's sorrow, but I never knew until now."

"The First Order has dominated all the major systems. We need your help. We need the Jedi Order. We need Luke Skywalker," Rey told him.

"I can't go with you," he said to her. "The Dark Side of the Force has destroyed my body. It took my hand and burned through all of my bones. I am not who I used to be," Luke said keeping his distance from her.

"You're powerful in the Force," Rey objected.

"I taught Leia the ways of the Force. Go to her," Luke suggested.

"She may have the power, but you are a Jedi Master," Rey argued.

"Who appointed me a Jedi Master? When I was called 'master' I was no older than you," he said skeptically.

He then walked off up towards the top of the island. "I am not leaving without you," Rey said after him.

Kylo Ren entered the throne room on-board Snoke's Super Star Destroyer, the Supremacy, that measured sixty kilometers wide and dwarfed his own Star Destroyers. The throne room had a long red curtain in the back, a simple throne in the center, and several Red Guards with various weapons.

General Hux stood before Snoke in humiliation as Kylo Ren entered the room. "The Resistance knew your every move, general. You fell for their traps and allowed them to escape," Snoke said angrily.

"They must have had a mole. Supreme Leader, I will sniff this mole out and…," Hux said defensively.

Snoke blasted Hux with Force lightning killing him instantly. Kylo knelt before Snoke, his facial expression hidden behind his mask.

"How is your wound?" Snoke asked Kylo.

"It's nothing," Kylo downplayed.

"The mighty Kylo Ren, when I found you, I saw what all masters strive to see: war, untamed power, and beyond that something truly special," Snoke said walking towards him.

"The potential of your bloodline: you, Vader," Snoke said disappointed.

"Yes, you worship your grandfather's strength. Despite his limitations, he slew his master. Do you want to kill me, Kylo Ren?" Snoke asked.

"Yes," Kylo replied honestly.

"Good," Snoke smiled amused. "My own apprentice betrayed me and gave me these scars," Snoke said pointing to his face. "I let my guard down for but a moment. Like a coward, he tried to kill me while I slept. Now, I never sleep," Snoke continued.

"I can never die. I am as immortal as the Dark Side itself. I am forever," Snoke said to him.

"I will serve you faithfully until I discover your secret, Supreme Leader," Kylo said respectfully.

Snoke chuckled in amusement. "You call me Supreme Leader. Call me by my real name," he ordered.

"Darth Plagueis," Kylo answered.

"I have power over life and death," Snoke said and then raised his hands towards Hux. Immediately, Hux coughed and began gasping for breath.

"Do not fail me again, general," Snoke said to Hux as he got to his feet.

"Yes, Supreme Leader," Hux said fearfully and quickly left the room.

"All life belongs to me including the life of your mother," Snoke said to Kylo.

"I will find her," Kylo promised.

"I already have," Snoke chuckled.

Kylo Ren exited the throne room and clenched his gloved fist in frustration. Once the elevator doors opened, he saw two First Order pilots. "Ready my ship," he barked at them.

He then proceeded to go to his room where he ripped off his mask and threw it across the room. He went to his knees as if to pray. "Grandfather, give me the strength to do what I must," he said with his eyes closed.

"Ben…," a voice said softly in his head.

Kylo opened his eyes and looked around for the intruder. He then saw a glowing man in black robes. Kylo immediately summoned his lightsaber and ignited it. "Ben, the son of my daughter," he said.

"Who are you?" Kylo demanded.

"You pray to the mask I wore," Anakin Skywalker replied.

Kylo immediately turned off his lightsaber and fell to his knees. "Forgive me, grandfather."

"I know what is in your heart but this is not the way," Anakin said to him.

"It was your hate and anger that gave you strength," Kylo said reciting what he had known of Vader.

"No, Ben, it was love," Anakin replied.

"I don't understand," Kylo said confused.

"The Jedi forbid attachments. I loved your grandmother and did horrible things to save her. It was love that gave me my power. When your grandmother died, I was a mere shadow of my former self," Anakin said sadly.

"It was as Lord Vader that you were strongest. You killed the Emperor and brought balance to the Force," Kylo pointed out.

"Lord Vader was never as strong as Anakin Skywalker. My son was able to see this," Anakin said.

"Luke," Kylo realized.

"I took Luke to the Emperor so that he would take my place. I thought that he would live if he became the Emperor's apprentice, but Luke never gave in to the Dark Side. It wasn't my hate for the Emperor that made me destroy him. It was my love for my son," Anakin said to him.

"Only through the power of the Dark Side can I be victorious. Only through my hate can I win," Kylo argued.

"The Dark Side is more than just hate. Your power in the Dark Side will grow when you love someone most dear to you. When you truly love another and give up your hate, nothing can stop you," Anakin told him.

"I killed my father to grow stronger in the Dark Side," Kylo admitted. "I killed him and felt only emptiness."

Kylo looked up but Anakin was already gone. Eyeing his mask, he took hold of it and slammed it against the wall multiple times until it cracked into pieces. "I was wrong about you! I was wrong!"
