Ben ran up the ramp to the falcon, and set a course for the resistance base, "Rey, I'm on my way." He said communicating through the force, Rey didn't answer he landed at the resistance base the ramp lowered he ran down, and into Command, "Mom!" he shouted as he handed her the crystal, "Where's Rey?" she asked, "they took her." Poe and Luke walked in "They what?" Luke said in a concerned tone. "They have her I didn't want to risk them taking this so I came here to get some backup."
Poe put on his jacket, "you let them take her?" he said angrily, "if anything happens it's on you." Ben looked sad, "what do you know?" Ben asked sensing the lie. Luke, put his hand on Ben's shoulder, "Rey's pregnant." Fear washed over Ben's normally calm face Leia put her hands over her mouth, "I made you go." Ben shook his head, "It's my fault, not yours." Finn walked in "Come on." Poe ordered as Ben turned around to walked out. Finn looked confused, "the first order has Rey." Finn grabbed his blaster, "no Finn." Luke handed Finn a lightsaber, "I made this for you." Finn took it and clipped it on to his belt, and the Men boarded the ship, and flew off.
Rey woke up in a dark room in a ship, she heard the engines softly humming as no other sounds were prevalent. She tried to move but her arms and legs were strapped down. She struggled, "You're awake." General Hux said standing over her. "What do you want?" he smiled, "revenge." He responded, "and I'm sorry but killing you would give us just the revenge we need." Rey jerked forward trying to free herself from the seat "oh you don't look happy." Rey struggled, she felt one of the cuffs cut into her wrist, she looked up, "Ben, will find you and kill you, and if I get free there won't be a safe place for you to hide. Now if you let me go I can overlook this." Hux looked as if he was thinking for a moment Rey tried to read him, but she couldn't "You can't get into my head girl." He punched Rey in the face, and everything went black. "shut up girl." He turned around.
The falcon flew through the sky on a destination for Hoth, "You didn't want to fly?" Luke asked Ben in shock, "I can't right now." Ben stared at the wall "I shouldn't have left her to fight alone." Luke looked confused, "What?" Ben stood up, "we were ambushed, Rey said she could handle it, and because I knew where the crystal was to go get it." Luke looked concerned, "you didn't know this would happen, and you didn't know she was pregnant." Ben grabbed a plastic cup and poured some water in the cup, "I should have felt it shouldn't I." Luke shook his head, "maybe you did and didn't realize it." Ben pushed his hair back, "that makes me feel much better, what if they." Luke cut him off, "they won't, don't think like that. Use the force and you'll know they won't." The ship shook, "what was that?" Ben and Luke ran to Poe and Finn. "We've been hit." Poe said Finn rose the shields, "Is it the order?" Ben asked, "I believe so just fighters, can you go get on the weapons?" Poe asked Ben, Ben nodded, "We can't attach Hux's ship." Ben sat in the chair swinging wildly, Ben turned the weapons on and began firing.
Luke stood up in the ship using the force to pull ships out of the sky crashing them on nearby planets, "Woah!" Finn exclaimed, Luke raised an eyebrow, "It's not that impressive." Finn shook his head, "No it's impressive." Poe dodged another ship that tried to collide with the falcon. Ben jerked around in the chair trying to keep his concentration on his precise attacks. When he noticed the General's ship flew over them." The shadow blocked out the lights, Ben got up and ran over to them, "Stand down!" Ben shouted, "Rey is on that ship." Luke looked as the belly of the ship became visible, "I'm going in." Ben started to climb up the latter that led to the top of the ship, Luke grabbed him, "You're going to go into a death trap if you go by yourself." Ben pulled his arm away, "I'm coming with you. Finn, Poe stay in the ship." Luke handed them a communication device, "be ready for us to jump out. We will most likely be running for our lives." Finn stood up, "If that's the case perhaps I should come with you." Luke shook his head, "You'll be needed here." Ben climbed the ladder and opened the door an alarm sounded when he opened the door. Luke followed him.
Rey opened her eyes General Hux had left the room leaving a lone Stormtrooper to stand guard, "haven't they learned their lesson?" she thought to herself as she smiled, "You will remove these restraints and leave the door open." The trooper turned around, "I will remove these restraints." The seal of the restraints was broken Rey rubbed her wrists, "You will also jump out of the ship." The Stormtrooper looked at her, "I will jump out of the ship." The Stormtrooper dropped his blaster and went to go jump out of the ship. Rey picked the blaster up, and started to look for a way out.
Ben and Luke found their way into the ship, when the Stormtrooper ran past them, Ben and Luke drew their lightsabers, the Stormtrooper opened the door, Luke and Ben flew back as the big gust of wind from outside hit them. The Stormtrooper then jumped to his death. "Did that Stormtrooper seem to be under a Jedi mind trick?" Ben asked standing back up, Luke stood up, "sounds like a Kenobi to me." Ben smiled, "I love that woman." Luke shook his head, "well let's go find her." Luke and Ben turned the corner General Hux sat in the co-pilot's seat, beside him sat Snoke. Ben's mouth dropped as he never laid eyes on the real Snoke before.
Hux turned around and gasped, "Master Snoke." Luke turned to Ben, "ready?" the two pulled their lightsabers preparing for a fight. Snoke and Hux got up from their seats, facing Luke and Ben, "The master of the knights of Ren." Snoke snarled. Snoke drew his lightsaber the blade set off a purple glow. Ben and Luke charged at him, blocking his blows, Hux pulled his sword joining in the fight he lunged toward Ben.
Finn stood up, "more gunners, I'll go take over the weapons he said Poe struggled trying to keep the ship on course, he grunted as he fired weapons on his end. Captain Phasma walked into the ship with an army of storm troopers behind her. "I'm looking for FN2187." She said smugly, Poe put the ship on auto pilot, "I'm sorry, but I know no one by that name." he responded in a sarcastic tone. Poe pulled the blaster from his belt and aimed at the troopers. "Oh please, you'll be lucky enough to hit one of us, but not all of us." Poe smiled as he pulled another item from his belt the metal shaft shone under the lights of the ship, and turned it on, the blue lightsaber blade of Obi-Wan ignited. Poe lunged forward slicing the legs off of some storm troopers some that had batons, tried blocking him, but had no luck as Poe moved like lightning, dodging their moves, he shot while wielding the saber.
Finn heard the commotion, grabbing his newly constructed lightsaber he ran up to help by the time he got up there Phasma, was cornered by Poe, and wounded, Poe breathed heavy, "Poe don't kill her!" Finn ran over to them, "You'll give in to the dark side." Poe shook his head, "I'm not a Jedi." Finn ignited his gold lightsaber, Phasma tried to stand up, but Poe had sliced one of her legs off, Poe raised the light saber, and when he was just inches away from slicing her in half, Finn blocked him. "I can't let you do this buddy." A remaining Stormtrooper grabbed Phasma, and they exited the ship. Finn and Poe turned off their lightsabers, and hooked it back to their belts, Poe walked over to his seat, "Why'd you stop me?" he asked Poe shrugged, "She was already down."
Rey walked through a dark corridor, when she heard the battle unfolding her eyes widened, "Ben" she whispered. Rey patted her side for her lightsaber, "Damn." She said she looked up and noticed her saber hooked to Hux's belt, she took a deep breath, and held her hand out calling to the saber. Ben got thrown to the floor, he quickly got up and continued to lock battle with Snoke and Hux, Rey reached out, and the saber went flying through the air nearly hitting each of them in the face, the four of them turned in awe, as Rey stood in the doorway holding it, she powered the saber as the light lit up the dark hallway. "She escaped?" Snoke asked Hux angrily.
Rey dug her heels into the floor and ran to them at full speed adding one more saber into the battle. Ben tried to keep Rey behind him however that was easier said than done, Luke grabbed Rey and Ben, and force transported them into the ship. They landed with a thud, Poe and Finn jumped, "What the hell?" Ben stood up helping Rey to her feet. "Is everyone alright?" Luke asked, "I think we're fine." Ben smiled at Rey. Poe set the course to go back to the base, "This ship is defiantly going to need a tune up he remarked." Luke smiled, "This may have been its last run."
Ben sat in a chair Rey sat on his lap "I'm sorry." He said while tears formed in his eyes. Rey wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his chest. "Sorry for what doing your duty." He hugged her back wrapping his arms around her, "I said I wouldn't let anything happen to you, and look they hit you." Ben put his hand on the bruise on her face. "Ben, you want to know why I love you?" she asked, he shrugged, "because I'm a wimp." Rey closed her eyes and shook her head, "because you treat me like your equal you respect my decisions, and I do the same of you, when I told you to go get the crystal, you knew I wouldn't have said that if I couldn't handle the Stormtroopers." He kissed Rey, "I love you." She sat up, "that's not all is it?" she asked.
Ben shook his head, "It's not." He ran his fingers through her hair, "You know how you've been really tired and junk lately?" she nodded, "why?" He put his hand on her stomach, "we're going to have a baby." Rey's mouth dropped, "How do you know this before I do?" she asked crossly, Luke turned around, "Everything alright?" Rey got off Ben's lap, "I don't know I just got told something about my own body, that I didn't even know about." Luke put his hand on his forehead, "I need a drink." Poe turned around, "Rey, I told him."
Her mouth dropped, "How'd you know?" Ben put his hands on Rey's shoulders, "calm down Rey." She turned around, "Did you just tell me to calm down?" Poe and Finn turned around trying to keep themselves from laughing "Aw!" Finn exclaimed, Rey and Ben turned to him, "What's aw about it?" Ben asked, "It's your first fight." Finn informed them, "Uh no it's not." Rey sighed, "Our first fight was Starkiller base." Rey turned to Luke, "did you know about this?" she asked, "about Starkiller?" Luke asked, "Yeah you told me remember." Rey shook her head, "about the baby." Finn's eyes widened, "the what?" Rey shrugged, "well at least I'm not the last to know." Luke sighed, "yes Rey I knew."
Rey, scoffed, and went into one of the backrooms, before shutting the door, "What just happened?" Luke smiled, "she does have a point Ben, perhaps you should have let her figure it out." Ben put his hands over his mouth and nose. "Why didn't you tell me that before." Luke rolled his eyes, "I thought you would use common sense." Ben took his hands off his face, "Mom, knows." Luke laughed, "which means the whole base knows." Ben nodded, Finn turned around "Congratulations Master Ben." Ben turned around, "Thanks." Finn, grabbed Ben's arm, "I need to talk to you a minute." Ben walked over to the side with Finn, "what is it?" he asked, "Poe, has a lightsaber." Ben looked down at Finn, "really how do you know?" he asked, "he used it against…" Finn paused, "well those." He said pointing to the dead Stormtroopers on the floor. "he tried to kill Captain Phasma." Ben looked back at Poe, "why didn't he?" Finn smiled, "I stopped him."
Ben looked at him funny, "I thought you didn't like her." Finn shrugged, "I don't know he sliced her leg off, and was standing over her getting ready to kill her, and it's like something snapped with me." Finn fidgeted with his jacket. Ben nodded, "That was the force." Ben started to walk back to his seat. "How do I call it on demand?" Finn asked, "You need to think about what we are fighting for, we are fighting for the good of the galaxy, and the light side because people like the sith, and knights of ren need to be stopped, that's how you do it on demand, you do that it'll come so much easier to you Finn I promise."
The falcon landed, Ben knocked on the door of the room Rey was in. "I'm sorry sweetheart." He said as he leaned his head against the door, Rey opened the door. "It's alright Ben." He smiled, "I'm so excited." He kissed Rey, "me too, but I'm still a little angry I was the last to know."
