Disclaimer Bwhahaha I so wished I owned Star Wars. But I don't *cries* anyways I do own Aviana and Kelsey. At least I'm satisfied with that.

Chapter 7

Aviana

Flashback

Aviana- Five years old

Ben- Eight years old

"What are you doing?" Ben asked me.

"What does it look like?" I retorted back.

"You know our parents would flip if we do one thing to this ship," he said.

"Correction, you dad would," I replied, getting down from the seat.

Ben and I were hanging around the Falcon as our parents were in my house. Ben walked into the cockpit as I followed him. I climbed up on one of the seats and sat next to him as he stood looking outside the windows in front of us.

"What do you suppose they're talking about?" he asked.

"I don't know adult stuff. Mommy always said that I'm too young to understand," I replied.

"You're lucky then," Ben said with a frown on his face.

He sighed as he looked over at me. I studied my cousin and I knew he was different. I always heard my parents said but how I wasn't sure.

"Anyways shorty we better head inside before they look for us," he said.

I took one last look at Ben as he walked away. Soon I followed after forgetting that moment right there.

End of flashback

-LINE BREAK-

"RUN!" I screamed as the three of us ran through the halls of the cargo ship.

Uncle Han and Chewie were shooting at the gangs somewhere in the cargo, well what's left of them since most of the gotten eaten by the Rathtars. I cursed as I didn't even have my blaster with me. Rey and I managed to get through one of the doors before a Rathtar took a hold of Finn. Both Rey and I ran after before the door closed shut on us.

"Damnit," I said in frustration.

This wasn't going well at all.

"Finn? Finn!" Rey called out.

"Crap we're screwed," I said. "Finn's going to be toast if we don't find him quick."

"Hold on," Rey said as she took off.

I followed her as she went over to the control panel. She looked up at the screens to see where Finn was. I kept an eye out as well and I saw something that got my attention.

"Rey, look," I said, pointing at the fourth screen.

She looked up and saw that Finn was in fact wrapped in the Rathtar's tentacle flying in the air. Rey had hit a few buttons and we waited anxiously. I was wondering how my uncle and Chewie were faring. I hope they're alright and the same with Bee.

Rey ran past me and I looked around frantically trying to find something to defend myself. I picked up an old pipe nearby and almost took a swing when Finn and Rey showed up.

"Finn you're alright," I said.

"Yeah but we won't be for long," he said leading us down the hall.

We caught up with my Uncle and Chewie fending off the remaining gang. I saw that Chewie was holding on to his arm. Oh no he got shot?

"Come on we need to go now!" Uncle Han said as he got the door open.

We all jogged quickly over to the Falcon. I was helping Chewie on the bed nearby as Uncle Han and Rey ran into the cockpit. I tossed Finn the first aid kit as I took off after them. Bee-Bee was stuck in the middle as he was buzzing around frantically.

"It's okay Bee we're getting out of here," I assured the little driod.

"Watch the thurst. We're going out of here at lightspeed," he said.

"Have you ever done that before?" Rey asked.

"I've never asked that question until after I've done it," he replied.

Oh. Great.

A Rathtar latched itself on to the glass of the cockpit freaking us out a bit.

"This was not how my day was going," my uncle said.

"You and I both," I said.

My uncle and Rey worked at the cockpit as the ship was pulling out of the cargo. I watched as the Rathtar was shot off the glass as we flew away. We jumped into hyperspace but it wasn't for long as an alarm went off.

"Oh great we're screwed," I said.

"Try not to panic just yet," my uncle said hitting a few controls.

Like that would be helpful.

Outside the cockpit, I could hear Finn's frustrations and Chewie's growls. I hope Finn doesn't do anything to hurt Chewie more.

"You hurt Chewie you're going have to deal with me!" Uncle Han called out.

"Hurt him?! He tried to kill me like six times!" Finn cried out. Then I heard Chewie growl a little and Finn said weakly, "Which is fine."

I let out a huff as I left the cockpit. I rushed over to where Chewie and Finn were by the lounge. Before I had a chance to reach over to them, I wounded up tripping over a wire. Before I managed to land, something took a hold of my pant leg. I landed slightly as I looked over to see Bee rolling towards me.

"Thanks Bee you didn't have too," I said.

Bee let out a few worried beeps as I stood up again. I gave him a grateful smile as I got to Finn and Chewie. It looked like Chewie survived being bandaged up.

"You okay Chewie?" I asked him.

Chewie let out a few growls at me as I looked over at Finn.

"Oh don't freak. You did fine," I told the Wookie.

The alarm then stopped ringing. I looked around and breathed a sigh of relief as we all didn't combust or something like that.

"Move ball," Uncle Han's voice rang as he entered the main hold.

"Good job kid thanks," he said to Finn.

"You're welcome."

Finn had sat down and must've hit something because the chess set pieces soon appeared. I almost chuckled at the fact that he tried to turn it off. I haven't seen this game in a long time.

"No Chewie you rest. You did great," Uncle Han told Chewie.

"So fugitives huh? What were you trying to do Vee? I know things weren't well before I left but really?" he asked me.

"Sorry Uncle, I had to go get Bee back. The First Order is after the map and well, they're after us," I replied.

"And not to mention, you got Finn since he's part of the Resistance and I'm only a scavenger," Rey said.

Oh right. I gave Finn a sideway glance as my uncle gave him a look over as well. He knew that something was up but chose not to say anything.

I haven't forgotten about him just yet.

"Okay ball. Let's see what you got," Uncle Han said to Bee.

Bee rolled over to the center and projected the hologram of the map. All the different planets and stars showed up as I looked at it in awe and felt a bit emotional. I heard Chewie sitting up from his spot as I continued to look at the map. Uncle Han joined in as he looked up in wonder.

"The map isn't complete. It's just a piece of it. Ever since Luke disappeared, people everywhere have been looking for him," he said.

"Why did he leave?" Rey asked as Finn stood next to her.

"He started a new generation of Jedi. There was one of them; a boy who was an apprentice; turned against everyone. Luke felt he was responsible. He just walked away from it all. From everything," my uncle explained.

"My mom; she's a force sensitive but knew some tricks with the lightsaber, helped out my father in the beginning a lot and sometimes she'll help in between her job at the base," I said. "When he left, it almost killed her."

I blinked my eyes back the tears that they threatened to fall. I remember the first nights my mother cried after my father left us. Those days that followed, I knew she had to gather the strength to raise me and Aunt Leia helped the best she could. Without her help, I wasn't sure how my mother and I would've survived.

"Do you know what happened to him?" Finn asked.

"A lot of rumors. Stories. People that knew him bes think he went looking for the first Jedi Temple," he replied.

"So the Jedi are real," Rey said.

"I used to wonder that myself," Uncle Han said, a ghost of a smile shown on his face. "Thought it was all just a mumbo-jumbo...magical power holding together good, evil, the dark and the light."

Uncle Han turned to face us as the glow of the map was surrounding us.

"Crazy thing is that it's true. The Force, the Jedi. It's all real. It's all true," he said.

Uncle Han and I shared a look. I could see that he felt guilty of what happened with Ben and everything. Chewie's moan interrupted us.

"No you rest," he said as a loud alarm went off.

"What is it?" I asked.

"You wanted my help. Well, you're getting it," he said as he headed off to the cockpit.

I wasn't sure if I should be excited or nervous about that.

-LINE BREAK-

Planet D'Qar

Kelsey sat at her work station staring at the hologram of her husband and daughter. Aviana was just a child as she laughed and Luke was beaming with pride. She couldn't help but smile a little.

She buried her face in her hands as she fought back tears. Never in her life that she would think that she would be alone; raising Aviana as her husband disappeared after the Jedi were destroyed.

Was taking Ben in was the right thing to do?

Was there anything she could've done differently since that night and the events prior?

No matter how hard she tried to convince Luke that it wasn't her fault for how things had turned out, he wouldn't listen and left.

It killed her but she somehow found the strength to carry on. There were moments she thought of the day would come when she was going to face her husband. A million scenarios played in her head and she would get anxious since

"Where did we go wrong?" she said aloud to no one as a few tears fell down her face.

A/n Oh geez that ending.

Next chapter we arrive at Takodona. I wonder what will go down there *shift eyes*

Anyways, I can't thank you all for your support so far! I'm loving your responses and wondering what's going to happen next. They give me the courage to keep on going.

Hope to update next week! Life has been a bit hectic to say the least since my trip is coming up at the end of July.

See you all next week and hope you all have a safe 4th of July and if not, have a safe weekend regardless!

Until next time,
Vicky
