Thank you for all your reviews I hope that I won't disappoint anyone with this chapter. I will not rate it on whether I think it is good or not because quite frankly I don't know. It's a pleasure to know that you think my writing has improved, it is the main thing that I have been working on since Christmas because to be honest my spelling was appalling, and that is something I can't afford when I go into my GCSE's when I return to school, as it is something that I've noticed my teachers picking up on.

Anyway this is not a fanfiction about me, so lets get onto the Star Wars.

I don't know if this is going to be the last one yet, it all depends if you as a reader want it to end or not- Enjoy-

Chapter 10

Family

FAMILES ARE LIKE BRANCHES ON A TREE

WE GROW IN DIFFRENT DIRECTIONS

BUT OUR ROOTS REMAIN AS ONE...

1 month after the wedding

Luke Skywalker paced outside of the palace's medical centre. Han Solo was sat in one of the three plastic chairs, his elbows resting on his knees with his h s clasped under his chin as he gazed at the blank white wall opposite. They had been out here for nearly half an hour, the corridor had fallen deadly silent several minutes ago.

The sound of footsteps broke the silence, Han looked away from the wall as Luke stopped his pacing as they looked to the two figures who were advancing towards him.

"How is she?" Vader questioned his son.

"We don't know, we haven't seen anyone since she went-" Luke was cut of by the door suddenly opening with barely a whisper.

"You may go in to see her now." A nurse informed they, standing to one side as more nurses came out before they walked away. The four men looked at each for a few moments, Han hastily got to his feet before making a b-line for the door which led to the room his wife was in. The other's fell in behind him.

Inside the room was of a similar décor to the corridor outside, the simplest way to describe in was that it was white. It was of an average size, on the right wall was a bed, it's headrest pressed up against the wall, opposite the bed was a set of draws a vase of flowers sat on top, the far wall was covered by windows which allowed natural light to pour into the room, and over the two chairs by the window. However since it was night fall only the night sky and the moons of Coruscant could be seen above the busy city.

Laid upon the bed propped up by the mass of pillows behind her, Han was by her side in an instant, his hand behind her head as he perched beside her. Luke's gaze was immediately drawn to the small bundle in her arms as he made his way to the opposite side of the bed to where Han was sat. Looking down at the small face enwrapped by a white blanket a smile crossed his lips at the sight of the small life.

"What have you decided to call him?" Palpatine asked his granddaughter.

Leia looked up towards the old man that was stood beside her father, "Ben" She replied.

"Ben." Han echoed as they exchanged glances with Luke, they all knew the reason behind the name, it was the name given to the man that had ultimately brought them together.

"I like that name." Vader added.

For the next few moments a peaceful silence filled the room, that was until the door slid open as two droids entered the room. "Mistress Leia," C-3PO greeted, "we came as soon as we heard, but it seemed that R2 miss interpreted the directions." The small astromech droid gave out a few frustrated whistles as they inched there way over to the family.

"Do you want to hold him Luke?" She asked her brother. Luke looked hesitant at first as his crossed arms loosened, but soon enough they fell to his side. Leia offered up the child and Luke took him in his arms.

It took him a few moments to get the right hold on the youth, he settled into one of the chairs by the bed side cradling the baby in his arms. Through the force he sensed the child's presence, like a beacon of light, such purity, so much light that he almost retreated as he brushed up against it. Indeed this child was strong in the force.

He traced his right index finger down his soft check, then in response the small eyes flickered open, brown and yellow eyes locked, a tiny land wiggled it's way out from where it had been entangled in soft warm blankets. Minute figures wrapped around Luke's their grip firm for a child of such age. "Hello Ben." He whispered, the youth smiled in response.

Naboo

The small band of rebels that remained in the galaxy gathered in a small meeting room on a newly formed rebel base. It had been several days since the announcement of a new prince, the child of Princess Leia and Han Solo. Prince Ben Solo.

That however was not the topic of discussion amongst the rebels that remained, "We've been at this for over two years, and still we have gotten nowhere." Wedge sighed.

"Patience, the Princess has managed to obtain a position in the senate, and has gained the trust of those loyal to the republic." Kanan explained.

"So we're just meant to sit here and do nothing?"

"For now, yes." Ahsoka began, "Sending or forces out will be suicide, we are slowly gaining more members, but it will take time. Although Leia is in the senate it will take time to place her roots properly and in a way that the Sith don't notice. Han Solo has also recently been given a place in the Imperial Navy, he will become Luke's right hand man, his role will be crucial in reporting what goes on out of the senate and off world, as well as keeping an eye on Skywalker. Although Vader is still in charge of the Imperial Navy it seems that Luke is taking up most of his father's duties when it comes to patrolling the galaxy, so is often off world for long lengths of time, but due to his family he returns to Coruscant more often than Vader would have done during the Rebellion."

"That's great that we have that information, but what are you saying."

"She's saying that this new war is going to take a long time to get started, just like how the Sith infiltrated the Republic we are infiltrating the Empire." Sabine stated, "It could take years for war to even begin."

"It's best that way, in that time we can build up our forces, making sure we keep a low key. Leia will be able to plant her roots and eventually we will restore freedom to the galaxy."

12 years later-

"Uncle Luke! Uncle Luke!" Luke was walking down one of the corridors when a twelve year old boy raced round the corner and right into him, wrapping him in a tight embrace. He mentally cursed himself, how had he not seen the kid coming, he had only been off world for around three months, had the kid already advanced so much in concealing himself with the force. The family had come to an agreement of training Ben in the light side of the force and the techniques that fell into neither category, that was until Ben grew older and could chose whether he wanted to be trained in the arts of the darkside, either way it would be up to the child and nobody was to force him to do something that he didn't want to do.

"Hey Kid." He smiled as he returned the embrace, "Happy Birthday." He congratulated as they split.

"Thank you Uncle Luke." The child laughed.

"Now Ben where is your mother? I was going to follow your father and grandfather but he rushed off before I could even lock the shuttle, and I don't know where your grandfather went."

"They're in the lounge, along with grandfather and great grandfather." Ben replied.

"Come." Luke said as he began down the corridor which led to the grand lounge.

Ben followed his uncle down the corridor. He, his father and grandfather had been off planet for what felt like forever, although he was not alone when they left, he missed them deeply. His mother was usually in the senate along with the Emperor, but when he did get home his great grandfather did take the time to teach him in the ways in the force, his mother also taught him on occasion, for she was the one who was more knowledgeable in the light side of the force, but due to her being the over protective mother figure the lesson where never as fun as the one's taught by his uncle and grandfather.

At times he felt sorry for his father, he was the only one in the family that wasn't force sensitive, apart form Chewbacca, who had gone back to his home planet for aa while to visit his family. He didn't seem to mid through, in fact it seemed that he much preferred a blaster and average reaction times opposed to the abilities the force gives you and a lightsaber.

Through the force he could feel his Uncle's presence, his mental walls were up tight as they always were, ben was perfectly aware that if he didn't want his presence to be felt then it wouldn't. Luke was teaching him how to strengthen his mental shields, although it was slow work. He was often astonished by the sheer power his Uncle had, when he watched him on the news when he was off planet he saw the power he had, he could take down a full warehouses of criminals without so much as a helping had from a single stromtrooper, although his father was always at his side.

He walked a few paces behind the man. Luke was dressed in his standard black uniform; his lightsaber handing from his belt on his left, hands clasped loosely behind his back, his back straight , his head held high. He radiated such power, just the sight of him made most officers quiver in their boots, the scar helped with that fact. Ben had often asked how he had got that scar, but he would never loosen his tongue, his mother and father didn't seem to know the reason, his grandfather and great grandfather knew but wouldn't tell. He had also found out that his Uncle's right hand was a prosthetic, as it was always covered with a black glove. He had however been told that it was his Grandfather that had cut off his Uncles had on Bespin when their true relation ship had been revealed. When he was younger he remembered his hair as a dark blonde, now it was more on the side of brown, it was wavy as it hovered over his shoulder's much like what he had been told his grandfathers had looked like during his youth.

Ben had vowed to himself to become like the man, although he would much prefer not to have the scars and the loss of limbs, but he would love to be as talented in the force.

Suddenly Luke had stopped, Ben had to act quick to make sure that he did not run into his back. It seemed that he had been so lost in his thoughts that he had been blindly following Luke. They had come to a halt before a set of tall wooden doors. His Uncle turned and gave him a warm smile before they entered.

Once inside Luke was yet again bombarded by another child, this time a young girl, shouting, "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!" She threw herself at him, he picked her up spinning her round.

"How's my little princess?" He asked as he set her down.

"I missed you." Was what she replied.

"I missed you too, Rey." Just then Mara walked up to Luke and before he could even utter a word, she had him tight in her arm and deep in a kiss. After a few seconds she withdrew, there was no need for words between the two, they knew exactly what the other was thinking even without he force.

"There you are Ben, we were wondering where you had gotten off to." Leia sighed as Ben joined her and Han.

Luke looked around, the room was much bigger than the one in the private wing, it had to be to hold eight people. It was nearly twice the size of the other, it had a much lighter décor than the other, but it still suited the Sith's that occupied it. Book cases lined the left wall from floor to ceiling, on the right wall stood a grand fire place surrounded by a mixture of sofa's and chairs. Above the fireplace was a hidden holo projector. On the far wall were three large windows which let the day time light poor in. The room was decorated in a mixture of white, royal blue and gold, with expensive artworks hung upon the walls.

Vader sighed as he got up from his seat, "By my reading it is only three in the afternoon , the party will be starting in two hours, so I suggest that we all go get ready, but before the party I would like you all back here for presents."

They began to exit the room, Luke was just about to turn to follow his wife when he heard someone shout his name from behind. Mara turned to him, he reassured her with a nod of his head and she carried on her way with Rey by her side.

Luke turned back to the room once the door had clicked shut, when he turned however he found that there was another click at the door, he mental flinched but he did not let it show on the outside, instead he sent his father and grandfather a confused look.

"Father?"

"Don't worry it's not to keep you in, it's to keep others out." Vader reassured.

"Grandson," Palpatine began from his seat as he turned to look at him, "Your father has told me that you are often going on missions by yourself, not allowing either him or Han to accompany you, that sometimes you even leave without telling anyone. I have to question why this is."

Luke sighed, he knew that this was a secret that he wouldn't be able to hide, "I have been experiencing visions, visions of the far future. About a galaxy once again submerged in war, Jedi against Sith, I have had names, some I can remember, Kanan, Ezra... Ahsoka-"

"Wait did you say Ahsoka?" Vader hastily asked.

"Yes, why? Do you know her?"

"She used to be my Padawan during the clone wars." Vader sighed, "I believe that I thought Ezra and Kanan during the early years of the Empire, they were part of a crew of a ship called the Ghost, they caused a lot of trouble."

"Well I've been tracking leads, but so far I have come up with nothing solid."

"Why did you not tell us this?" His grandfather inquired.

"I did not know if the visions were true, I thought that I should keep my suspicions under wrap till I was certain whether they are right or not."

"And are your visions correct?" Vader questioned.

An still silence stood in the room, Luke sighed before replying a simple, "Yes..." Once again the room fell into silence as the older Sith's thought about the younger one's words.

It was Palpatine who broke the silence, "We shall discuses this matter later, for now get ready, do not let this spoil the mood of the night, as you said it is in the far future, we have time to come up with a solution, but we must not discuss this matter with anyone." With that understanding they left the room to prepare for the nights celebrations.

It was half an hour before the guests were about to arrive for the party, Luke and Mara made their way to the group lounge, Rey had already gone ahead with Ben. Luke was dressed in his usual Sith clothing, it was only Han that was changing from his usual clothes into a suit. However Mara and Leia had donned on dresses, Luke did not know what his sister was wearing, not even Han knew; but he knew what Mara was wearing, a emerald green dress to match her jewelled eyes, her hair flowing loose over her shoulders. The dress trailed came to a stop just above her ankles, on her feet she wore silver shoes with a medium sized heel. Hanging around her neck was a silver chain with a diamond jewel suspended on the end.

"What did your father want?" She asked out of the blue.

"Ah nothing of importance." He lied, she seemed to be able to sense this.

"Tell me the truth Luke, what did he want?"

"Please Mara drop it."

"You're not going to tell me are you?" She asked.

"It's better if I don't tell you in honestly." Their eyes locked, "I'm sorry." He apologised.

"It's ok, I'm sure that you will tell me when you are ready." She had come to learn that Luke had plenty of secrets, some which he would carry to his grave not even telling her, so if he didn't want to tell her something there was a reason behind why, and she knew better that to pester him about it.

They came to the tall doors, when they entered they discovered that they were the last ones there and that the rest of the family were already gathered around the fire place on the sofas and chairs. Leia was getting two drinks from the small bar in the corner, he could see why she had kept the dress a secret even from Han, it was beautiful, the dress itself was black but red and orange patterns crawled up it from the bottom reminding Luke of the warm flicker of fire, the small jewels on the dress reflected the light in the room and made the dress shine like a star.

"Sorry, we're late." He apologised, as he and Mara took their seats, Luke placed a small wooden box beside him. Once they were settled the room was still in silence, "Well we better get started, we've only got 25 minutes till the guests begin to arrive, and I'm sure that we will get one or two who will come early."

"Here," Vader handed his grandson a small box, "I hope you like it."

Ben looked at it, admiring the red box and black ribbon, he carefully undid the bow letting the ribbon fall away before lifting of the lid, inside was a small state of the art comlink. He picked up the small elegant structure, and looked over to his grandfather.

"I know that you already have one, but this one has only one number and that is to one of my most trusted pilots, he's getting older and is no longer able to fly the tie's, so I have appointed him as your new pilot of a brand new state of the art shuttle. With one call you will be able to contact him and he will be able to fly you anywhere on this planet within reason." Ben's face lit up, he had just been given his very own personal shuttle.

Luke smiled at the look on the black haired boy, he was full of Joy, he was after all a descendant of Anakin Skywalker, and every one knew that trying to keep a Skywalker grounded was impossible, it was defiantly out of the question when one considered who the kids father was.

Eventually they got to the end of the presents, Ben had also gotten games, books and over expensive items and was now thanking every one. When he got round to thanking Luke he held his hand up to silence the child, he could see that the child was confused, "You need not thank me yet, I still haven't given you my present." He picked up the box and gave it to his nephew,

The young boy looked up to him, "Go on then, open it." He encouraged. The boy opened the lid of the box, the twinkle in his brown eyes could be seen clearly as they grew wide along with his broad smile. Ben put the box carefully down on the floor next to him, before jumping to his feet, racing over to Luke, before Luke could protest he was smothered in a loving hug.

"Thank you so much!"

"You're welcome, kid." Luke replied.

"What did you get him?" Han questioned, as he tried to pear over to see what was in the box.

"I know of only one thing that can stir a reaction like that from a force sensitive child." Vader smirked.

"Oh yeah, and what is that?" Han inquired.

"The parts to build your own lightsaber." Vader replied. Han's eyes widened as he slowly turned his head towards Luke.

"You got him the parts to build a lightsaber?"

"Yes, don't worry though I have faith that Ben is experienced enough with a blade. He will be fine." Luke reassured.

"If he cuts his hand off, it will be your neck on the line." Han threatened, but there was a slither of humour in his voice.

"Fine." Was all that Luke replied.

All of a sudden a gold protocol droid entered the room, "I have been told to inform you that the guests have begun to arrive."

Luke looked to the clock, "As I said, there are surly one or two that decide to come early."

10 years later

HoloNet News

"In recent weeks there has been an sudden burst in rebel activity. Most of this is located in the outer rim world where it appears that the remaining rebels that survived have being hiding, it has also been reported sightings of several Jedi.

We urge those on the planets effected to stay indoors during night periods, and to report any unusual active-" Luke turned of the projection and sighed into his hands, they had put so much effort into the past ten years to make sure that his visions would not become reality, but now with each passing day their efforts were slowly falling away. His grandfather had died several weeks ago, just round the time when the rebels had become active, it was believed that his death was what triggered it. Indeed it could be one of the resulting factors but it was not the whole reason. Steps had been made to insure a quick and efficient change of power upon the old man's death, and within a few hours Vader had been on the throne.

The senate was beginning to spilt, that much could be seen, half stayed with the empire whilst a few had supported the rebellion, others were indecisive. However, the hardest split had been the split within the family, it had been successfully split into two with the new rebellion uprising.

Ben had chosen 6 years ago on his 16th birthday to follow the path of the Sith much to Leia and Han's annoyance, in those years he had built up a formidable reputation in the Empire along with the skills to go with the reputation. Rey had chosen the path of the Jedi, Luke had accepted her decision but it did not mean the he was happy with it, Leia had taken over her training as he and Vader had taken over Ben's.

When they had been on missions together their difference in the way things work could easily be seen, Rey took the long and hard way to make sure that very few or no people died during the missions but in result many of those missions had failed, Ben understood the need to sacrifice a life for the grater good, but Luke had made sure that he hadn't become a cold blooded killer. Both now had their own lightsaber's, Rey's was turquoise, whilst Ben was on his second one which was blood red.

The galaxy was as he predicted falling back into galactic war, he decided that he would meditate on the matter. He placed himself in the centre of the bed, crossed his legs, closed his eyes and reached out with the force seeking it's guidance. Instead of guidance he was met by an on slaughter of warnings, he withdrew with a sharp breath, "What the hell was that?" He gasped, his hand racing to his head which ponded with a sharp pain. Within seconds Ben barged into the room.

"Did you feel that?" Ben asked his Uncle.

"Yes." He confirmed as he rubbed his temples trying to dull the pain.

"Something bad is happening." Ben gulped.

Mara raced in through the open door, "The planet is under attack!" She declared.

"What!?" Luke hissed, forgetting the pain he jumped of the bed and straight to his feet.

"Your father told me to gather both of you and head straight to the private hanger bay."

"Where's Rey?" Luke asked his voice full of worry.

"I don't know. But we don't have time tight now, she is an adult, she can take care of herself."

"What about Leia? Han?" He asked as they rushed from the room toward the hanger.

"I don't know." She admitted.

Racing flat out, well aware that time was something that they did not have the privilege of, they reached the hanger bay in record time. Waiting by his personal TIE fighter Vader was waiting for them. "Where are the Star Destroyers?" Luke asked.

"Most are away on missions, they are currently rushing back but I don't think that they will be back on time. There are four in orbit, but ground assistance is needed." Vader informed his son

Without even a command the four were into their own personalised fighters and up in the air before you could even say 'Sith'. It was night out and the battle could clearly be seen from planet side, as specks of orange flared against the black background. It could also be seen that the Destroyers were taking heavy damage even with their new advanced shields.

Soon the four were swallowed into the dogfight, several squads of TIE's on their tails. The four took down plane after plane after plane, but an hour into the fight it seemed that they were getting nowhere, in fact in the last 10 minutes they had lost two destroyers as the rebel ships had finally broken through and destroyed the engines. This had sent the massive ships falling through the planet's atmosphere before crashing into the building on the ground killing countless of innocent.

Luke knew when I saw a dogfight which he was not winning, this was one of them, he sent out a com to all the remaining pilots, "Return to planet side, this is a fight that we will not win in the air." He turned his ship around and headed back towards the planet.

The Ghost pulled out of hyperspace and right into a scene of death and destruction, burnt metal litter the cold space, two star destroyers hovered just outside of the planets atmosphere, multiple parts of each ship were destroyed scrap metal suspended in place. It looked as if time had stopped dead in a time of death.

Large raging fires could be seen on the planet where another two star destroyers had crashed. So much death, so much suffering. The force was bursting with the emotions of sheer pain and agony, causing the three force users aboard the ship to choke on a lump in their throats.

In a line surrounding the planet were the rebel forces, they pulled into a gap beside the main ship, "What are we to do now?" Kanan asked over the com.

Wedge answered through one of the x-wing coms, "We were just waiting for you. We could not attack the palace without you Jedi."

"We can handle the sky just fine, but the ground is not us pilot's strong suit." Poe Dameron added. Poe was by far one of the best pilots in the rebellion, he and Wedge competed regularly with each other, but Wedge was getting older and Poe was still as young as ever.

"Well now that we are here, we might as well get this over with." Ezra reasoned.

"Copy that." Replied the captain of the main ship.

The resistance advanced, slowly making their way toward the outer atmosphere of the planet, when they were sure they weren't going to be attacked they headed in on full speed.

Vader, Luke, Mara and Ben stalked the palace corridors of the palace, squads of 12 armed troopers patrolled the Palace corridors, more were stationed at ever entrance to the palace as well as the roof. The senators had been placed into the most secure rooms of the palace. It was well established that the palace was the main target, if the palace fell the Empire would fall with it, and that was simply not an option for Luke.

"Lord Lukco-" Came a voice from behind, the four turned.

"Captain Phasma what is the problem?"

"The resistance forces have landed outside the palace, their forces have begun the attack on the palace." The captain informed him.

"Thank you captain." He praised before turning and carrying on the way in which he was going.

"Son, the entrance to the palace is the other way, should we not help the forces."

"We can not stop in internal breech from there."

"What do you mean?" Ben questioned his Uncle.

"There are several secret passages in and out of this palace," Luke explained as he walked, "I believe that your mother and father, along with my daughter are about to allow the Ghost crew in through one of these passages."

"Do you know which one they are planning on using?" Ben asked.

Luke shot him a cheeky Skywalker smile, "Of course I do, young one."

Ben huffed at the name his Uncle had just referred to him by, but otherwise he kept his mouth firmly shut.

At one of the secret entrances.

The ghost crew had just emerged through the door at the end of the corridor, they planned to disrupt the coms that each trooper had at the control room, this would disorganise the troops and leave them vulnerable. But that plan had been quickly thrown out of the window when four Sith's had rounded the corner, now it was a matter of surviving the encounter.

The odds were stacked in their favour, with 9 against 4, but in all real sight it was Jedi against the Sith drawing the odds down to 5 to 4. A new plan was hastily put together, the other three would go to the control room and bring down the coms whilst the others fought off the Sith, Han would stay behind.

They were stood in a standoff for several minutes, neither side dared to make the first move, each had their lightsabers drawn, a mixture of yellow, red and green against a sea of blood red. The Luke spoke up. "I always had the feeling that you were planning something sister."

"Then why didn't you do anything about it then?" She snapped.

"I never had substantial evidence to accuse you of anything, you made sure of that." He argued.

"We had to do something Luke, you were tearing the galaxy apart." Han spat.

"If you hadn't noticed the galaxy was in peace, in the first time in decades there was relative peace within the galaxy. For once the two sides of the force were not fighting against each other."

"Because there was no light to fight the dark Luke. Ultimately the darkness had claimed total control, and you had it the way you Sith wanted it, you and your father and grandfather were able to rule the galaxy unchallenged."

"You think I wanted the darkness to have complete rule?" He questioned.

"It was clear to see, father." Rey added, "You wanted the darkside to rule, you tore Ben from his mother and father and converted him to the dark, into a Sith." Luke was taken back by his daughters words, they hit him like a knife to the gut, he could tell by the look on Mara's face that she felt the same way.

"I did not want darkness to have full control of the galaxy, I had convinced my father and grandfather of that a long time ago. I got them to see that the darkness could not rule by itself, it needed the light." He looked to Leia, "That's why I didn't force you to join the darkside," He looked to his daughter, "that's why I did not protest your decision to carry on your training in the ways of the light, and Ben, I did not force him to join the dark, he chose it."

"So what are you saying?" Han asked.

"The dark can not rule without the light, neither can the light rule without the dark. That is why the Jedi failed, that is why the Sith failed." He explained. "You have to understand, if we do not come to some sort of agreement, the galaxy will be torn apart again." He pleaded, but he could tell that his reasoning was getting no where.

"We don't believe you." Ahsoka stated, "You have lied time and time again-" She exchanged glances with father and son, "-you betrayed us, both of us. And if you will not surrender you will fight."

Luke sighed casting his gaze to the ground, he could not surrender that much was clear, but he really did not wish to fight his own family. He had to decide, "I'm afraid that we will not surrender."

"Very well, then you will fight and you will lose." Rey declared.

"We'll see young o-" All of a sudden the power went out, submerging the corridor into darkness, the lightsabers the only source of light. Nevertheless, the fight began. They moved swiftly, using the force to guide their actions and avoid the blades that came hissing past their ears fractions of a second later. Blades locked, sparks sent flying into darkness, blaster bolts repelling off blades and into the walls. Then, a hiss of pain as a blade tasted flesh, unable to identify as male or female. The fight carried on this way for up to an hour till each person supported a wound of one description or another.

Luke tugged on his mental link with his father, 'This can not go on, we must retreat.' He sent.

'Agreed this battle is one that we will not win today.'

Luke reached out to the other Sith, 'Deactivate your blades, conceal your location using the force, we get to the hanger bay. Father, tell your troops to retreat.'

'Understood' the all replied. In sink they turned off their blades and vanished into the darkness.

When the lights returned the Jedi found themselves standing alone in the corridor, "They've vanished." Ezra pointed out.

"More like tucked tail and ran." Han corrected sarcastically.

"No Luke has realised that he can not win this battle today, he has indeed made a smart move." Kanan acknowledged.

"So they'll be back?" Rey asked Kanan.

"Almost defiantly"

"Do you think he was right, you know with the dark can't rule without the light and vice versa?" Han questioned them.

"It very well could be." Ahsoka answered, "What do you think Leia?" She asked as she turned to the princess, but Leia was staring blankly down the corridor.

Leia couldn't believe what had happened, in the past day so much had changed, she had lost almost everything she had gained since she had first met the two men on the first death star: she had found her father, even if the man happened to be Darth Vader; a grandfather; a brother and a friend; most importantly she had a son, a son which had now been taken from her.

Had Luke been right? Could the light not lead without the darkness? He had been right about one thing though, the galaxy had found peace, for those precious years she and the galaxy had found their peace, but she had been so blind not to see it on both accounts. She had been taught that the Sith's rein was evil, she had set herself he goal of putting the light back into power that she had failed to see that he galaxy had reached peace.

There was no turning back now however, only time would tell who had been right.

Luke sat in the co-pilot seat of his father's shuttle, they were set to rendezvous with his father's super star destroyer which was located over Dagobah, from there they would enter the furthest reached of the galaxy. There they would seek out on inhabitable planet, setting up base would be their first priority, gathering more men would be the next. When the time was right the Sith will once again step out from the shadows. This time not in a quest to conquer the galaxy, but a quest for balance in the force.
