Rey took out the lightsaber and practiced with it using a rock pillar to center her moves. Luke watched patiently as Rey swung the lightsaber in quick successive strokes. She then lost control and swiped the pillar clean off.

"When you are at peace, you will better control it," Luke told her and then walked up the steps to the top of the island.

Rey joined him inside an ancient Jedi cave with a mural on the ground showing the light and dark side. "Kylo Ren is strong in the Dark Side of the Force. Train me, so I can bring balance," Rey said to him.

"What do you know of the Force?" Luke questioned.

"Its power that helps Jedi control people's minds and make things float," Rey said ignorantly.

"Amazing, everything you just said is…wrong," Luke said unimpressed. "The Force is not a power you have. It's not about lifting rocks. It's the energy between all things. The tension, the balance, that binds the universe together," Luke said.

"Like gravity?" she asked.

"Gravity with a purpose, a will of its own," Luke explained. "Sit here, close your eyes, and don't move."

"For how long?" Rey asked.

"Until I say," Luke said simply.

The Resistance cruiser exited hyperspace near a nebula. "Shut off the engines," Leia ordered.

The cruiser's engines immediately went offline. "We'll use our momentum to enter the nebula," she told the fearful bridge crew.

The cruiser entered the nebula with the First Order fleet soon upon them. "Give chase," Hux said pleased as they entered the nebula.

The leading Star Destroyer accelerated towards the cruiser and then was engulfed in an explosion starting from its engines. The hydrogen in the nebula ignited at the Star Destroyer's engines. Explosions ripped through the Star Destroyer's decks until the bridge was torn apart. The bow of the ship floated forward completely dead.

"Shut down our engines!" Hux shouted as more ships entered the nebula.

"We're flying blind. Eventually, we will pass through the nebula," a bridge officer informed Leia.

"I know but at least we bought some time," Leia replied.

Luke stayed with Rey as remained in meditation all day and night. Despite her hunger and exposure to the cold, she stuck with it. With her mind, she could see everything on the island. She could sense all the living things and their connection to the Force. She even found a dark pit near the water. As she did, small pebbles rose around her hand.

She went deeper into the pit losing herself to it. "The pit. It calls to me," she said finally.

"Resist it," Luke said.

"I can't," Rey said as she couldn't help but wonder what it was inside. The ground began to shake and crack around her.

Luke looked around as the cave shook and then he saw flashes of lightning appear around her. The lightning danced around the cave and on the ground. Rey suddenly opened her eyes and gasped for breath.

"You didn't even try to resist it," Luke scolded.

"It wanted me to see something. Why couldn't I see you?" Rey asked. "You've cut yourself off from the Force," she accused.

"I have seen this raw strength only once before. This power is… Could it be?" Luke wondered fearfully.

"What is it?" Rey demanded of him.

"Only one man made me afraid for my body and soul. I was afraid then. I am afraid now," Luke said backing away from her.

On the beach near the pit, Rey could feel Kylo enter her mind. "Why is the Force connecting us?" Kylo wondered.

"You murderous snake! You lost. I found Skywalker," she said trying to intimidate him. In reality, her training had been a failure so far.

"Did he tell you what happened?" Kylo asked. "The night his temple was destroyed, did he tell you what happened?"

"I know everything I need to know about you," Rey said angrily.

"You do? Do you even know who you are? Has he told you yet?" Kylo asked.

Rey said nothing. "He hasn't," Kylo realized.

Rey didn't want to give him the satisfaction of asking him what he meant and Kylo disappeared from her mind.

On the Supremacy, Kylo felt drops of water on his gloved hand.

Finn went directly to Canto Bright while the other Resistance fighters took complicated detours to confuse First Order sensors. Looking out the window, he saw flying yachts and a large lit-up city. He landed the craft on the beach not realizing it was a parking violation.

Looking around, he reached the city and avoided authorities. A rich man passed him by and gave him an arrogant sneer. Finn looked him over. "See something you like?" he asked Finn.

"Yeah, I do," Finn replied.

Soon afterward, Finn was dressed in the rich man's clothes. He saw other rich types and imitated them by pointing his chin up. Curiously, he entered the casino and saw an assortment of alien races enjoying gambling tables. There were floating slot machines, bars, and racing tracks outside.

Finn had never seen anything like this in his life. An official came up to Finn with a sneer. "Your ID, Sir?" he asked.

"My ID?" Finn wondered and then began to search his pockets for it. Once he found it, he realized he looked nothing like the man he stole his clothes from.

"I don't need an ID," Finn said with mock confidence.

"If you don't have your ID, you will have to come with me," the official said.

"Do you know who I am? I'm a very special person. You do not want to mess with me," Finn said to him.

"Come away, Sir," the official said.

Finn struggled with the official and was finally stunned to the floor. "What appears to be the commotion?" a richly dressed older black man asked.

"This man has no identification?" the official said to him.

"Well, that is a problem," the old man smiled dismissively and then gave Finn a haunted look. "I'll take it from here."

"As you wish," the official said and departed.

"Thank you, Sir. You really got me out of a jam back there," Finn said appreciatively.

"You're not from around here, are you?" the old man assumed.

"What makes you say that?" Finn said defensively.

"Come with me, son," the old man said.

Finn gave him an uncertain look. "Don't worry. I'm the manager of this fine establishment, Lando Calrissian."

"Alright," Finn agreed.

Lando led Finn to his large private office filled with artifacts from all over the galaxy. "Take a seat, young man. What's your name by the way," Lando asked.

"It's Finn," Finn said finally.

"You got a last name?" Lando asked skeptically.

"Just Finn," Finn said awkwardly.

Lando took Finn's wrist and saw the barcode on his arm. "What have we here, a lost Stormtrooper," Lando said amused and then took out a pistol.

"Whoa, I don't mean any trouble. I defected from the First Order," Finn said holding up his hands.

"No Stormtrooper has ever defected from the First Order. They're trained from birth to kill and nothing else," Lando said.

"I was different. I can't explain why, I just knew I couldn't stand by while the First Order massacred villages," Finn said. "So, I joined the Resistance. I am Resistance," he said.

"First Order, Resistance, two sides of the same coin," Lando said putting his pistol away.

"I respectfully disagree, Sir," Finn replied.

Lando smiled amused. "Do they ever talk about me in the Resistance?"

"No," Finn shook his head.

"I led the strike team that destroyed the second Death Star. I thought afterward there would be peace and freedom in the galaxy. Never happened," Lando shook his head.

"If you are who you say you are, we have to keep fighting," Finn pressed.

"You're fighting against an idea, kid; an idea that's lasted for thousands of years. There will always be some folks that want to be ruled over," Lando said.

"Fine, let them be ruled by the First Order but let those who want to be free be free," Finn argued.

"I completely agree which is why I started this casino. It's a place where those who support the First Order and those who supported the Republic can come together and forget their differences for a night," Lando smiled.

"That's great," Finn said disturbed by the notion.

"You look really familiar. Who are your parents?" Lando asked.

"I don't know. I was taken by the First Order when I was too young to remember," Finn said.

Lando nodded thoughtfully. He took out a device. "Put this under your tongue," he instructed.

Finn took the strange stick device and cautiously placed it under his tongue. "Like this?" he asked uncertainly.

"Just like that," Lando nodded.

Finn then gave the stick back to Lando. "Well, I'll be damned," Lando said as his eyes became moist. "Finn, I'm your father."
