"You're wasting your time."
"I don't think I am." Rey's heart was beating frantically. "I know what I saw. Ben Solo-"
"Is dead!" Kylo snapped through gritted teeth. "Ben Solo is gone, and it's time for you to accept that."
Rey stepped closer to him. "I would if it were true." Her eyes locked onto his, and the anger building up behind them was enough to make anyone cower away. She wouldn't though, because she is not afraid of him. She is only determined. "There is hope for Ben Solo, and I won't ever stop trying to reach for him."
"So that's really it?" Kylo scoffed. "You won't let go because you think you can save someone who died a long time ago?" He was still glaring at her as he growled, "pathetic."
"Maybe it is," Rey replied, standing right in front of him. "But I don't care. Because I believe in Ben Solo." She felt the slight tugging through the bond that let her know that her time was almost up. Her gaze softened, and she reached up to lightly caress his face in her hand. "I believe in you," she whispered before the bond snapped shut.
