The darkness of the night filled the resistance base, Ben slept soundly in his bed Rey woke up, "Ben." She whispered putting her hand on his chest. Ben grunted, "Ben." She said again a little louder, "what's wrong?" he said not opening his eyes she smiled and kissed him, he opened his eyes. "that's a good way to be woken up." Rey laughed, he put his hand on her cheek, "what is it." Rey hugged him, "I'm hungry." Ben looked at the clock "it's midnight." Rey smiled, "It's ok I'll go get it." Ben sat up, "No what do you want?" he asked "Ice cream, chocolate ice cream, and some pickles?" Ben smiled, "Pickles?" he shuttered, "You haven't lived till you tired it." Rey remarked.
Ben got up and walked into the compound making his way to the kitchen, he ran into Poe they both screamed, "What the?" Poe looked up at Ben, his hair was sticking up, "for once you don't have perfect hair." Poe laughed, Ben sighed, "Rey wants Ice cream." Poe shrugged, "what's wrong with ice cream?" Ben turned the light on in the kitchen, "not just ice cream pickles too." Poe laughed, "gross." Ben opened the freezer, and pulled out some ice cream, Luke walked in with his lightsaber ignited, Ben and Poe screamed. Luke deactivated the saber, "What are you two doing here so late." Ben scooped out some ice cream in a bowl, and pulled a pickle from the jar. "cravings run."
Luke looked as if he wanted to burst out laughing but because of the time of night he stopped himself. "who would have thought the former master of the nights of ren would be doing this, and your hair." Ben rolled his eyes as he put the ice cream away, "that's a bad thing?" Luke laughed. "no it's just kind of funny." Ben picked up the bowl, "you might want to get a spoon." Luke reminded him, Ben turned around and grabbed a spoon from the jar, and walked back into the bedroom. "Ben!" Rey exclaimed, "Something wrong?" she nodded, "Did you go in there like that."
He handed her the bowl of ice-cream "like what?" "look down." Rey informed him. He looked down to see he was butt naked. His mouth dropped, "shit." Rey took a bite of ice cream, "did you run into anyone?" he nodded, "Poe and Luke." He climbed back in the bed, and got under the covers, "I was wondering why they were looking at me funny." Rey started laughing really hard, "didn't you feel a draft?" He shook his head, "I was half asleep." Rey smiled, "Maybe I should have gone." He smiled, "I like getting things for you, but I'm never going to live this one down." She put her head on his shoulder, "I'm sorry." He rested his head on top of hers, "why didn't you tell me?" she smiled, "I thought you would put your robe on You normally do." Rey dipped the pickle in the ice-cream, "here try it." She held the pickle up to his lips, "No, sweetheart I'm good." She smiled, "just a small bite you won't regret it." Ben took a bite from the pickle with a crunch.
Trying he tried to swallow it, but he kept thinking about what it actually was, "It's great." Rey smiled, "You're lying aren't you?" he nodded, "I need to spit this out." He went into the bathroom and spit it in the trashcan. Rey laughed.
The sun rose, Rey had already gotten up and was struggling to put on her pants, she grunted, Ben sat up, "why didn't you tell me to get up?" she shrugged, "I didn't want you to see me doing this." He smiled, "Are we having a giant baby?" Ben smiled, "why do you ask?" he got up, "Because I'm only 4 months a long, and I look like Jabba Hutt." Ben hugged Rey, "no you don't you're beautiful."
Rey frowned, "I don't feel beautiful right now." he smiled, "you know we could get you some different clothes." Rey pulled open the drawer and pulled out a pair of ben's black pants. He smiled, "won't those be too long for you?" she nodded, "I can't not wear pants, those won't work anymore." She pointed to her other pants on the floor.
She put the pants on, and tightened them with the drawstring, "that should help." She sat down on the bed and rolled the legs up enough so she could walk without tripping. "sweetheart?" she smiled, "I love when you call me that." He sat down beside her, "don't get mad." She frowned, "that doesn't sound good." He shook his head, "we can get you some more clothes, that way you don't have to get mine, and you'll be more comfortable that way." Rey smiled, "I suppose, you're right." Rey stood up, "are you ready to go eat breakfast and get laughed at?" he smiled, "I better get dressed first." Rey nodded, "I think that's wise."
Rey walked to the compound where Finn, Poe, Luke and Leia were enjoying their breakfast. "You mean he actually had nothing on?" Leia asked Luke as she sipped her coffee. Luke nodded, "nothing." Rey walked in "Good Morning, as she served herself some breakfast from the containers of food on the table, Luke looked at Leia. "Where's Ben?" Leia asked. "getting dressed." Rey responded sitting down as she took a bite from an apple, "Do you know he came in here naked?" Luke asked, Rey started to laugh, "yes, but I thought he put a robe on, I sent him to get me something I'm so sorry." Tears welled up in Rey's eyes. Leia stood up and gave her a hug, "no sweetheart, it wasn't your fault." Ben walked in, Poe and Finn burst out laughing.
Ben sighed, "I suppose you all know what happened?" Finn bit his lip, "Yeah, cheeky." Ben looked down at Finn, "sorry." Poe slapped the table a few times laughing, Ben shook his head, and made himself a plate, and sat by Rey, "morning Mom." Leia smiled, "Good morning." Luke, smiled, "I'm glad you remembered to put on clothes today." Rey laughed, Ben looked at her, "I'm sorry, it was funny." He stood up, "Ok I came in here naked, I was half asleep, and forgot to put my robe on." Everyone started laughing.
After breakfast Ben and Finn, went outside to train Rey followed them, "So what are we working on today?" Finn asked, Ben shrugged, "I think we're going to work on your sword techniques and then we'll move on from there." Rey smiled walking behind Ben, "I want to work on somethings." Rey said, Ben turned around, "Like what?" Rey shrugged, "I need to work on things that are purely defensive, like it or not Ben, you can't protect me all the time. Right now I need to work on stuff I can do if you ever find yourself in a pinch, and can't get to me." Luke already made it out to the training yard, "She's right, now that she's pregnant she's even more of a target." Ben shrugged, "Is it safe?" Luke nodded, "It'd be worse if she didn't keep her training up." Ben nodded, "alright, but be careful." Rey smiled, and kissed Ben on the cheek. "don't worry."
Poe walked outside, reluctantly, and sat down, on the ground, waiting for someone to notice his presence, Rey looked at him when she picked up her wooden sword, "Hey?" he looked up, "are you alright?" Rey asked, "I'm fine just bored." She sat down by her brother, "how do you have grandfather's lightsaber?" he shrugged, "I found it one day when I was a kid." Rey felt her curiosity grow, "when you touched the saber, did you get any sort of vison?" he nodded, "yeah I did." Rey's face lit up, "what happened in it?" He shrugged, "It's hard to make since of." Rey hugged Poe, "please try."
Poe cleared his throat, "Well, as soon as I touched it I was transported into the vision, I saw you and Kylo fighting in the snowy woods, I knew who Ben was at the time, but I didn't know who you were either it was very shortly before you were born when I found the saber." Rey raised her eyebrows trying to encourage him to continue, he cleared his throat. "I saw Mom and Dad, die years before it happened, I also saw you marrying Ben, and having children with him." Rey smiled, "So that's how you knew?" he nodded, "part of." Rey /kissed Poe on the cheek, "Thank you for telling me." He smiled, "that's not all." Poe closed his eyes, "then what else." He shook his head, "I can't tell you right now." Rey stood up, "why it isn't about the baby is it?" he shook his head, "it's about Snoke, and Finn." Rey looked confused, "Snoke and Finn, well what about them?" Poe got up, and took his jacket off, "I can't tell you right now until I'm absolutely sure." Rey nodded, "I won't pry, but if it's something that's eating at you please don't keep it bottled up." He shook his head, "I won't." Rey hugged him, "promise, because if it becomes too much someone can probably help."
Rey picked up her sword and walked up to Luke, "what was that about?" she shrugged, "maybe nothing and maybe something." Luke nodded, "put your sword up." Rey smiled, "now do you know why we use lightsabers?" Luke asked Rey, she shook her head, "because they're very effective." Luke nodded "well yes, but that's not my point we use lightsabers because they make it easier to defend yourself, this was one of the top reasons Jedi choose lightsabers, you never go into a fight just to kill someone, you go into the fight because you need to protect yourself and others. Always keep your guard up."
Rey started to lunge at Luke out of instinct, he shook his head, "don't initiate the fight." Rey put her sword down, "how big of a target do I have on my back?" he put his sword down also, "are you scared?" she shook her head, "no, but at the same time I want to know." Luke picked the sword off, "you might as well have a big red target on your back Ben's target is even bigger." Rey sighed, "something needs to be done." Luke smiled, "nothing huge until the baby is born." Rey nodded, "I know."
Ben grunted as his sword clashed against Finn's "Finn you're getting better." Finn smiled, "thank you master." Ben raised his eyebrows, "you don't have to call me master." Finn laughed, "I'm sorry." Ben disengaged, and threw his sword across the room. "What's wrong with you?" Finn asked, Ben shook his head, "Let's just say this I know something about Snoke." Finn shrugged, "what about it?" Ben, picked up his sword again, and threw it. "I think he's Mace Windu." Finn's mouth dropped, "I thought you said he was dead." Ben ran his fingers through his hair, "Yeah that's what I thought." Finn, looked down at the concrete, "Snoke, what makes you think this?" Ben got a drink of water, "well when we went in the ship to save Rey, Luke and I saw his true form and got into a fight, His saber was purple." Finn shrugged, "what does that have to do with anything." Ben turned around, "Mace had a purple saber." Finn fiddled with the sword in his hand, "Ben, half your saber is Purple, I mean we could say you're Snoke." Ben shrugged, "I could be wrong, it's just a thought."
They walked over to where Luke and Rey were training, the pant legs that were rolled up began to come unrolled as Rey went in for a strike she felt the tip of her boot get caught on the unrolled leg, she tried to keep herself balanced, but she felt herself getting closer and closer to the ground. She threw her sword down Luke held his hands out catching her before she hit the ground Ben ran over to them, "are you alright?" Rey smiled, "I'm fine." Rey stood up, and turned to Luke, "Thank You." Ben wrapped his arms around Rey, "What happened." Rey smiled, "I need new pants that's what's wrong." Ben laughed. "We'll get you some."
General Hux stood before Snoke, "Supreme Leader Snoke, you asked to see me?" Snoke growled, "You left the girl alone?" General Hux scrambled within his mind to come up with an answer, "She was knocked out. I thought. — "Excuses!" Snoke interrupted. Hux's stuttered as he tried to say something in his defense. "I'm tired of your and Captain Phasma's incompetence. I suggest you two stop being so stupid and do your jobs, or else, I will give you one more chance, now get an attack ready." General Hux bowed to Snoke, "I will do better Supreme Leader." Snoke let a low rumble escape from his lungs, "You better."
Ben and Rey went into the command building, Leia was finishing the final touches on the shield, "Mom?" Ben called out "Ouch!" Leia exclaimed as she pinched her finger, "You alright?" she nodded putting her injured finger in her mouth, she smiled, "What do I owe this honor?" she questioned Rey's face turned red, "What's wrong dear?" Rey looked at her boots, "I need new pants." She smiled, "are your other ones to small?" Rey nodded, "Ben's aren't working very well for me either." Leia laughed, "to big?" Rey nodded, "Come with me I'll help you find something." Leia put her arm around Rey and led her into a backroom. Ben sat down looking at the shield "Will this actually work." He walked over to get a closer look. "What are you doing?" Poe asked Ben shrugged, "just looking."
Rey looked through a rack, "What about these?" Leia asked pulling a pair of olive green pants from the hanger, Rey smiled, "They're—Just then the ground shook, and the lights went out. "General Leia." The voice of General Hux called out, Leia grabbed Rey, and turned around trying to keep Rey hidden behind her. "What can I do for you, General Hux." She said politely, but harshly, "Your Daughter-In-Law, is being awfully, quiet Isn't she?" Rey took a deep breath, "because I have nothing to say to you." Leia's eyes widened, "You wouldn't really attack two unarmed people in a closet would you?" He looked as if he were thinking for a moment, "you know I've never done it before, but there's always a first time." Leia got a look on her face as if something inside her snapped, "You!" she shouted pulling the lightsaber from Rey's belt, and powering it up. "General with all due respect, aren't you a bit old for this." Leia shook her head. "You dark side users are finished with tearing my family apart." Leia held the saber underneath Hux's chin, she let the blade touch his chin ever so slightly the blade smoked as it burnt his flesh. Hux raised his arms, "Please."
Ben and Poe looked around when the explosion hit, Ben suddenly got the feeling of his mother, and Rey being in danger, he looked at Poe, "Go help the others." Ben ordered, "My wife and mother are in danger." Poe grabbed Ben's arm, "Aren't you forgetting something, your wife is also my sister. I'm coming with you!" Ben shook his head, "The other's need you Poe." Poe looked angry, "The others have it under control, you don't know what you're walking into, let me come." Poe drew the lightsaber, Ben rolled his eyes and nodded, "come on." He said powering up his saber and running towards the back hallway. Luke watched as gunners flew over he pulled them from the air, Finn ran through the field of Stormtroopers knocking them to their knees, Luke drew his saber and began fighting while pulling planes down. He looked around for Ben, "Be safe, Ben." Luke said to him through the force.
Leia kept Hux glued to the corner, he was afraid to move because the moment he does a lightsaber will go through his neck and out the other side of his head, he knew at that moment his final chance with Snoke had failed, and even contemplated ramming his own head into the blade. Rey stood behind Leia, "Mom, don't do this." Leia turned to her, "I might have to Rey." Poe kicked the door in of the closet Ben stood in shock seeing his mother, holding a lightsaber to someone's head. Tears formed in Leia's eyes as Ben's eyes met with hers.
Ben force pulled General Hux out of the closet, General Hux started feeling his air being constricted, Poe ran over to Leia and Rey, "Are you two alright." Leia powered down the saber, and handed it to Rey. "hide." Leia whispered to her, "he can't know you're pregnant." She whispered even quieter. Rey nodded, Poe guided Rey to the floor standing in front of her as he watched Ben, draining the life from Hux.
"Kylo." Hs said struggling to get the words out. Ben's eyes remained emotionless, when suddenly, he felt a sharp pain hitting him in the back, "Ah the traitor." The voice of Captain Phasma spoke softly, Ben screamed and fell to his knees dropping Hux, Rey tried to get up "Ben!" she shouted. Phasma got closer to him with the blaster when suddenly a gold lightsaber blade went through her torso, she screamed as she fell to the floor. Luke held his green blade to Hux, "If you cherish your next breath you will leave with your armies." Hux gave Luke an evil look. "I will leave for now." Hux dragged Phasma's lifeless body out, and loaded the remaining armies back onto the ship.
Rey ran to Ben as he fell to the floor. "Ben!" she cried, he felt his eyes grow heavy, as he tried to keep consciousness, He put his hand on Rey's face, "I love you." Rey shook her head, "Medic!" she shouted her voice cracked, "Ben, Don't you dare leave me!" she shouted. Leia ran to them as Ben's eyes closed. Rey threw herself on her husband crying. Luke kneeled beside them, he looked at Leia, "He's alive, but barley."
An army of medical droids pulled Ben off the floor, and took him into the operating room Leia held Rey in her arms, stroking her hair, "He's going to be ok Rey." She looked at Leia, "I don't know what I'll do if he." Luke put his hand on his sister's back.
