Aftermath

By: Sailormoon7771

Finn, walked around the compound aimlessly, Rey walked down the hallway holding her back, "Hey Finn." She smiled, he looked up, "Are you alright?" he shrugged, "I'm related to Snoke." Rey shook her head, "let's go talk over there." She pointed at the couch. Finn smiled, "you ok?" he questioned, she nodded, "backache that's all." They walked over and sat down, "listen you are not related to Snoke." Finn squinted, "What do you mean?" Rey put her hand on his shoulder, "listen, to me he was Mace Windu, and as far as you're concerned Mace Windu is dead, he's been dead since the Emperor Palpatine killed him. You are related to the great Jedi Knight, who mastered both light and dark side of the force." Ben walked in, he grunted as he sat in a chair Rey stood up, and put a pillow behind his back. "Finn, don't let this get you down and turn you to the dark side." Ben smiled at Rey, "Thank you." Rey walked back over to Finn, "I'm not going to the dark side, I left and I left for good."

Finn stood up, "I'm going to go eat something." Rey smiled, "Finn just think about it alright, we love you, and we don't want to lose you." Ben nodded, "I second that." Ben sighed in pain, "Do you want me to get you any medicine?" he shook his head, Finn walked out of the room and into the kitchen, he raised his eyebrows, "How's your back?" he asked, "probably not as bad as yours Ben." Luke walked in, "How's the happy couple?" he asked, Rey smiled, "tired." Ben sat up, "then you should take a nap." Rey smiled, "I just did, Master Luke?" he sat down, "what?" Rey took a deep breath, "maybe you should talk to Finn?" Luke shrugged, "about what?"

Rey put a pillow behind her back, "About that whole Snoke is his grandfather thing." Luke shrugged, "There isn't much I can say to him, all you really need to do is give him time, that's what helped me, and besides he's Ben's padawan Ben you need to help him get over the shock." Ben shrugged, "It's not like I've been up and around lately." Luke nodded, "I personally don't think anyone needs to discuss anything with him, just leave him be and if he wants to talk he will." Poe walked down the hallway and kicked the wall, "What's wrong with you?" Rey asked, he grunted, "I asked this girl out." Ben sat up "and?" Poe sat down by Rey, "she turned me down."

Luke burst out laughing, "Really what was her excuse?" Ben bit his lip trying to keep in his laughter, Poe shook his head, "She said she had to take care of her sick grandmother." Rey laughed, "maybe she is?" Poe shook his head, "Her grandmother died 3 years ago." Luke cleared his throat, "you know you can have more than one grandmother right." Poe shrugged, "No she lied." Rey smiled, "who is she?" he smiled and pointed, "Piper, is her name." she walked down the hallway her blonde hair swished back and forth in perfect waves down her back. Ben raised his eyebrows, "I thought she was married." Poe shook his head, "she was, but he died in one of the attacks."

Luke stood up, "Ding, Ding, Ding, she probably isn't ready to get back out there yet, and didn't want to tell you the truth." Rey stood up, "I'm going to go talk to her." Poe grabbed Rey's arms, "nothing mean right?" Rey shook her head, "just a conversation." Rey walked over to Piper, "Piper?" Rey called out she turned around and smiled, "Mrs. Solo" she said in outer worlds accent "you can call me Rey please." Piper smiled, "What can I help you with." Rey cleared her throat, "My brother."

Piper smiled, "you mean Poe?" Rey nodded, "he said he asked you out and you said no, he's over there all upset you turned him down, I just want to know why? I mean I've seen you two interact with each other, and It seems like you two like each other." Piper nodded, "Poe is amazing, and super cute, but I'm just not ready. He reminds me of my husband, and I can't look at him without well tearing up." Rey smiled, "I understand." Piper cleared her throat, "Rey, please don't tell him." Rey smiled, "your secret is safe with me." Rey walked back to the couch, "What is it?" Rey smiled, "I can't tell you, but give her some time." Ben motioned for Rey to come over to him, "do you need anything?" Rey asked, he shook his head, and grabbed her arm pulling her on his lap, "No I might hurt you." He smiled, "no you won't."

Finn came back not saying anything and walking by the seating area. "Hey, Finn!" Rey shouted he jumped, "what?" Rey got up from Ben's lap, "When was the last time me and you just hung out?" she smiled, Finn hesitated, "what do you define as hanging out?" Rey shrugged, "I don't know, but we're going to go have some fun." She hugged Finn, "I'm not taking no for an answer." Finn nodded, "Fine I'll go with you." Ben stood up, "I'll come too." Rey turned around, "sorry Ben, but you aren't invited." Ben laughed, "seriously?" Rey nodded, "yes, but when I get back we can have some fun of our own." She winked at him. Ben sighed, "Gross." Poe called out.

The next morning, Ben walked into the command where Leia was working on a new project, "Hey Mom." She looked up, "Well aren't you a sight for sore eyes, It's good to see you back on your feet again." Ben nodded, "feels good too." Leia smiled, "what troubles you son?" He looked up, "Snoke knows about the babies." Leia walked over to him, "babies?" Ben sat down, "I think we're having twins, here's the thing grandfather came to me in a dream, he told me we would have twins, and if Snoke gets his grip on them it would be catastrophic for the entire galaxy." Leia smiled, "makes since, there are no guarantees they will be force sensitive, but giving both of your lineage, I think your odds have doubled in size." Ben shrugged, "I should have never." Leia smiled, "Your father?" he nodded, "Ben, your father would be so proud of you right now, you walked away from evil on your own, and haven't looked back. I know you're sorry for what you've done, but you need to forgive yourself." He nodded, "I know, I need to forgive myself Mom, but I don't know how." Leia hugged Ben, "I love you, and you will find a way to forgive yourself."

Rey walked into the command, "Well, Finn and I are going to go have some fun." Rey smiled as Finn walked in behind her. "I'm ready." He said unenthusiastically. Rey walked up to Ben and kissed him, "We'll be back in an hour." She smiled, he nodded, "take my ship, don't take the falcon." Rey nodded, and walked out the door that led to the ship hanger, Ben grabbed Finn's arm, "You have your lightsaber and a blaster on you right?" Finn nodded, and wiggled his arm out of Ben's grip, "I have them." See Finn pulled the hilt of his saber of his belt, and clipped it back on. Ben nodded, "you're leaving with my family there. Please don't let anything happen to them." Finn smiled, "I'll protect them with my life, Master Ben." Ben nodded, "Thank You."

Finn boarded the ship, "so where are we going?" he asked, Rey entered the coordinates to Coruscant "Why are we going there?" Rey smiled, "I wanted to get Ben a gift." Finn looked confused, "why did you want me to come?" The ship took off leaving the planet, "That's not all we're going to do we haven't spent any time together since Ben and I got married, actually since you woke up." Finn smiled, "What is in Coruscant that we can't do at the base?" Rey smiled, "you'll see."

Ben went out to the training yard, Luke and Poe were locked in a wooden sword fight, Ben walked over and picked up a wooden sword, Luke put his hand up, "hold on Poe." Poe looked over his shoulder, "Son, did the doctor clear you to do that?" Luke asked, Ben shook his head, "not yet, but I can do it." Ben held the sword out trying to prompt Luke to put his up, Luke shook his head, "don't be a fool." Ben smiled as he moved his sword at lightning speeds, "Woah!" Poe exclaimed, Ben tried to do a backflip, but when he landed he felt pain shoot up his back he fell to the ground holding his back. Luke kneeled beside him, "I told you are you alright?" Ben squinted, "I'm alright, just need to lay here a minute." Ben grunted as he got up holding his back, "Ben!" Leia called out, "You know very well you aren't supposed to be fighting yet, do you want a set back?" Ben shook his head, "I'm sorry Mom." Leia smiled, "Now come on we need to get you some ice for your back." She grabbed Ben's arm, and led him back into the compound, Poe started laughing, "Wow, Leia in protective mother mode, very scary." Luke raised his eyebrows, "If you think this is bad just imagine when he was a baby." Luke put the wooden sword back on the rack, "Women when they have babies change a little bit." Poe shrugged, and got a drink of water. "Like how?" Luke put his robe back on, and shrugged, "It's like they're priorities shift from being focused on themselves or issues at hand to the child, and I don't think it ever ends."

Rey and Finn landed on Coruscant "whoa!" Finn looked around, "I didn't know it was that big." He and Rey looked around, "I know, I read stories about it, but I never thought I'd actually see it, now come on Finn. We have places to go." Rey walked down the sidewalk, Finn followed behind her, "Hey wait up." Rey looked over her shoulder, "It's not like I can move that fast right now." Finn laughed, "Oh please you're a Jedi." Rey smiled, "I think I have long a way to go before I can call myself that." Finn caught up and walked beside Rey, "I don't think so." She smiled, as they walked into an area that looked like a graveyard, Rey looked around, "This way." Finn grabbed Rey's arm, "Why are we here." Rey smiled, "to prove a point." Rey's black robe dragged on the ground, "here read that." Finn looked at the Stone in front of him, "Mace Windu." Rey nodded, "I did some research, and found out he died here on Coruscant, he died protecting the galaxy from Palpatine." Finn started to turn around to leave, "No wait. Finn!" he turned around, "I thought you said we were going to have fun not to prove a point." Rey closed her eyes, "Finn, I wanted to say. Instead of thinking him as Snoke, just think of him as the man he once was."

Finn walked around Rey towards the exit, "Finn wait!" Rey paused, and took a sharp breath, "Finn!" she shouted he heard the pain in Rey's voice, and ran to her, "What's wrong." She grabbed Finn's arm, and fell to her knees on the ground holding her stomach, "It's too early." "No, No, No." Finn bit his lip trying to get Rey back on her feet, "We need to get back, can you stand up?" Rey nodded, "I need help." Finn nodded as pulled her up he put her arm around his neck, "Stay calm." Rey said trying to breathe. "Just get to the ship, you'll have to fly." Finn's mouth dropped, "Are you crazy, I'm no pilot." Rey nodded, "I'll fly then." Luke walked in Ben laid on an ice pack, "Hey Uncle Luke, are they back yet?" Luke shook his head, "not yet, they will be don't worry, they probably just lost track of time." Ben sat up, "Why did I let her go?" he shook his head, "Let her?" Luke questioned, "we are talking about Rey still aren't we?" Ben smiled, "I guess, I just have a horrible feeling about it." Luke sat beside Ben, "because of the kiss thing?" he shook his head, "No, it's not that, I get a feeling something is wrong." Luke nodded, "Want to go look for them?" Ben shook his head, "I do, but I don't want her to think I don't trust her."

Rey and Finn walked through the busy side streets of Coruscant passing by different creatures both human and not human Rey smiled, "The ship!" They walked up the ramp, Rey walked over to the pilot's seat, and entered the coordinates to go back to the base, "Can you do this?" Finn asked, "I have to, I don't want to crash." Rey took the control trying to concentrate on flying, "Ow" she said under her breath, "Can you put it on auto?" he asked her, she nodded, "It won't go as fast, we need to get back I'm fine." Rey paused, "I think." Sweat poured down Rey's face, as they flew over the base, "the landing isn't going to be pretty." Finn looked worried, "We aren't going to crash are we?" she shook her head, "No." the tail of the ship scraped against the ground as the ramp lowered.

Ben ran out, "Rey!" Finn helped Rey walk down the ramp, Ben walked up to them, "What's wrong?" Rey shrugged, "I need help." He smiled, "I got you." Ben picked Rey up, and took her through command. "What's wrong?" Leia ran over to them, "I don't know." Leia grabbed Ben's arm, "Medic!" she shouted, a medical droid emerged, "What seems to be the problem." Rey screamed, "Well that." The droid walked up to Ben, "Bring her this way Mr. Solo." Ben nodded, and carried her to the back. Ben laid Rey down on a bed, as an army of medical personnel gathered around her Finn ran back there, "Ben I'm sorry." He turned around, "for what you didn't cause it. You got her here as fast as you could, and for that I'm grateful to you Thank you." Finn nodded, "You're welcome."

"Mr. Solo" a medical droid walked up to him, "Can you all wait in the waiting room?" Ben nodded, "What's going on?" The droid sighed, "We need to stop her contractions, the children can't come yet if they do they will die." Ben nodded "We'll go, please do everything you can." Ben and Finn walked out Leia stood by the door, "Is she alright?" Ben sat down in one of the chairs, "I don't know." Luke walked in, "What's going on?" Leia tried to smile, "Something with the baby." Luke looked at Finn, "Can you go get Poe?" Finn nodded, "Where is he?" Finn asked, "He went to try and ask Piper out again." Luke laughed Finn shrugged, "She keeps turning him down I'll go get him." Finn ran down the hallway and outside, Poe followed Piper, "Hey Piper!" he shouted she turned around quickly, "Don't you get it Mr. Dameron!" he smiled, "I understand, more than you think." He brushed her blonde hair behind her ear, she smiled, "You aren't making this easy." He looked down, "I don't want this to be easy." She shook her head, "You could have any girl here why me?" he shrugged, "Maybe it's the fact you don't pay me any attention most of the time. I don't know." He bent down, and kissed her she gasped, and slapped him. " , I didn't give you permission to kiss me." She turned around and walked away Finn walked past Piper, "Poe, come to the infirmary." He looked concerned, "What's up?" he said rubbing his cheek. "Something's wrong with the baby." Poe and Finn ran towards the infirmary, they burst through the doors, "What's wrong?"

Ben looked as if he wanted to cry, but he kept it in, "She was having contractions." Poe's mouth dropped, "It's too early." Leia nodded, "They'll stop them." Ben sat down on the floor, and leaned his head against the wall when a droid came out, "We've stopped them successfully." Ben stood up, "Thank you." The droid walked to where the rest of the family was, "What caused it?" Leia asked, "Not sure, there are countless ways this could happen, stress can be a factor." Ben nodded, "Can I go see her." The droid nodded, "Wait, she's going to need strict bedrest, until she delivers." Luke stood up, "Good Luck with that." Ben smiled, and went through the swinging doors, "Rey." She smiled, as the machines she was hooked to beeped, "I'm sorry I scared everyone." He sat down beside her, "don't be." He bent down to kiss her stomach, "hey you two stay in there for a little while longer." Rey smiled "Do you like that Piper girl?" he shrugged, "I don't know why?" she shook her head, "I don't know there's just something about her, I just don't like."

Rey felt her throat close up she started coughing, "Rey!" Ben grabbed an oxygen mask hanging on the wall and put it on her face, as her body started convulsing, "Help!" His voice rang out, and once again the room filled with droids, Ben backed out, and watched as they worked to stabilize Rey, Leia walked in, "My God." She gasped, "Ben come on" He shook his head, Tears fell down his cheeks. "Ben!" Poe shouted, "Don't come back here." Ben's voice cracked, Poe ran over, "Rey!"

Ben watched as the medical droids cleared out Rey sat up in the bed, "Ben." She smiled, he walked up to her and sat down, "Are you alright?" she nodded, Leia and Poe walked over, one of the medical droids walked up to them. Ben turned, "What happened?" he asked harshly, "Mr. and Mrs. Solo, we made a mistake, the medicine we used Mrs. Solo was allergic to, and that's what caused the convulsions, the children are alright. We're sorry we had no idea she was allergic to it." Rey closed her eyes, "It's alright." Ben shook his head, "It's not, alright, you could've killed her." He said irately, Rey put her hand on his shoulder, "Honey, they didn't know I didn't even know." Leia put her hand on Ben's back, "Ben." She bent down and kissed him on the cheek. "She and the babies are alright, and that's all that matters."
