Can she accept the ties she has to the man who she only knows as a monster? Will Ren turn from the Dark Side to be with his former friend and rejoin his family?

6. Chapter 6

We're back. So guys, last time on Old Friends Reunited, the old friends actually, well, reunited. As you know, it's getting hard to get all this done. I hope you all like this chapter. I'm going to go as far as I can.

Again, Star Wars does not belong to me.

Old Friends Reunited Ch. 6

Finn's POV:

As they climbed out of the rubble. Finn heard Han yell "Come on, Chewie!"

As Finn took in the scene, Maz said "Rey and BB-8. They need you. Go!"

Finn shouted to her "I need a weapon!"

Pointing to the object in his hands, she yelled back "You have one!"

Looking down at it, he pressed a button its side and a blue saber shot out of it and let out a deep hum. Lightsaber in hand, Finn tore through the wreckage of the building, searching for Rey while trying to avoid stormtroopers as best as he could. Around him, the fighting intensified as some of the bounty hunters fought back. Gripping the saber, Finn ran it through the chest of a stormtrooper!

Behind him, he heard "Traitor!"

Turning, he saw a riot trooper throw his shield and blaster away and swapped it out for a concussion baton.

Raising the saber in a stance, Finn waited. Lunging at him, the riot trooper swung his baton at Finn, launching a whirlwind of devastating attacks. Barely blocking as it swung towards him, Finn struggled to stay on his feet. The trooper raised the baton and brought it down on Finn which made him collapse on his knee and then he swung the baton at Finn's face. Finn was launched 5 feet away! As he struggled to stand up, he found he was surrounded.

Earlier, Han's POV:

Han and Chewie were pinned down as more and more stormtroopers surrounded them. Han looked over to Chewie and said "Hey, can I try that?" pointing to Chewbacca's bow cannon.

Nodding, Chewie handed it to him and watched as Han took aim and fired a bolt that sent two stormtroopers flying! Smiling, Han turned to Chewie and said "I like this thing."

Just then, a riot trooper came over a hill and shouted "We have your friend here. Surrender or I will kill him! Then we'll kill you!"

As Han and Chewbacca surrendered, they were being taken to a dropship with Finn when suddenly stormtroopers saw something coming from the lake. The troopers ran to the shoreline, taking up firing positions. Han looked to the ships coming in, and as he recognized the shape of X-wings, said "It's the Resistance."

Pilot POV:

The captain said "All wings check in."

One by one, they all checked in and one said "We're with you, Po."

As Po examined the shoreline, he said "The target's in sight."

Finn's POV:

Finn watched as the X- wings closed in. He watched as it sent two blasts that took out the troopers at his sides. Sprinting, he grabbed the saber from a fallen stormtrooper and his blaster! As Finn ran through the debris, the X-wing tore through the sky, blasting through one TIE fighter after another. Finn watched it take out an entire squadron and blasted a group of troopers, all while taking hairpin maneuvers!

Finn laughed as he said "That's one hell of a pilot!"

Kylo Ren's POV:

As he peered into the girl's mind, he found two things. Quietly, he said "The map. You've seen it."

As he peered further in, he felt something. A barrier, not one she was putting up, but one that was much older. Something about it seemed familiar. He looked in her memories, nut they all looked fake before a certain time. As if someone had taken or blocked her memories and made shallow ones, but the wall was crumbling, he could see that. He was brought out of it when he heard her say "Please, get out of my head."

Pulling away, he replied "Where did you get the necklace?

She replied "I don't know. I've had it for as long as I can remember."

Raging, he said "Wrong. The last time I saw this it was on my friend and as far as I know, she's dead."

Before they could continue, Commander Jat came forward and said "Sir, rebel ships are here. We need more troops."

Turning towards him, Ren said "Pull the division out. I have what we need."

Turning back to the girl, Kylo Ren put her into a faint, caught her, and carried her bridal style. As he left the trees, he looked into the girls face and found her to be almost familiar. Continuing to his ship, he felt someone looking at him. Turning, he saw the familiar silhouette of Han Solo. As he stared into his father's eyes, he couldn't help but wonder. As he saw the traitor running towards him, Ren turned and continued onto the ship with the girl in his arms. When he looked back to FN-2187, he thought "Next time."

Finn's POV:

As Finn scanned the battlefield, he saw something that made his heart stop. Kylo Ren was carrying an unconscious Rey to his ship! Finn took off in a sprint and tried to reach them, saying "No, no, no! Rey!"

Before he could reach them, the ship unfolded its wings and blasted into the atmosphere.

Standing up, he walked over to Han and said "He took her."

Han replied "I saw. We'll get her back."

Han's POV:

As the lead ship came in for a landing, Han went over what he'd seen. His son had been here. Before he could go over it, the ship's door opened and the crew filed out. As they left, Han saw who he was looking for Leia Organa (or Solo, I don't know. Did they divorce?). She saw him and a small smile appeared across her face. Then, C-3P0 came out of nowhere and said "My goodness, Han Solo! It is I, C-3P0! You probably didn't recognize me because of the red arm."

Turning to Leia, he said "Look who it-" stopping when he realized Leia had already seen him and he had ruined the moment.

As C-3P0 shuffled off awkwardly, Han said "You changed your hair."

Leia replied "New jacket."

Chuckling, he said "No, old jacket."

Chewbacca pulled Leia in for a hug and as he pulled back, Han said "I saw him. Leia, I saw our son. He was here."

Leia asked "What happened? What did he do?"

Han replied "He took someone. One of the people I was transporting. A girl named Rey."

Turning towards him, she asked shocked "Rey? That's impossible."

Han asked "What are you talking about?"

She said simply "There's no time. We need to talk about this later."

Time Skip:

After they had landed on D'Qar, he and Leia went to talk privately. Han immediately asked "Why is Rey being on Takodana impossible?"

Leia sat down and asked "Why didn't come with me whenever I went to see our son?"

Han replied "I don't know. Why?"

Leia replied "Because whenever I went, I got to watch Ben play with the only friend I've ever seen him with. A girl named Rey."

Realization showed on his face as he realized what that meant. He asked "Can you tell from the beginning?"

Nodding, Leia explained "The first time I saw her with Ben, I asked Luke about her. He said that he'd found her on one of his trips to the other parts of the galaxy. She was on the streets of some planet he'd never visited. I can't remember the name. She was alone, starving. He took her in, only after he did he realize how strong she was. Originally, he said he was going to let someone in the Republic to take care of her. So, he took her back to the other padawans and started training her. Ban had taken her under his wing soon after she came. I swear, she and him, inseparable. Then, Ben led the First Order to them. Luke and I tried to save as many as we could. Out of 45 students, only 3 made it out. Soon after, we realized that Ben would never stop. So, he blocked certain memories and we left them on different planets. For Rey, we had to think deeper. So, we left her on Jakku with no memory of Ben, me, or Luke."

Han asked "You left a little girl on that speck of dust alone?"

Leia shook her head and said "No, we had someone who was supposed to raise and help her, but I guess he didn't. Believe me, neither of us wanted to, but we wanted her to be free from the Dark Side."

Han asked "Do you think Ben knows it's her?"

Leia said "I don't know, Han. It's been so long and Luke put a barrier up. The only ways it can be broken is if Luke or Rey does."

Finn's POV:

As Finn wandered the base, he saw the lead X-wing fighter getting out of the cockpit. As soon as he turned around, BB-8 took off and warbled, to Finn's complete disbelief, at Poe Dameron! When Poe saw him, Finn heard him say "No way."

When they reached each other, Finn asked "How are you alive?"

Poe explained "After we crashed, I woke up in the middle of night. There was no ship, no you, nothing- That's my jacket."

Finn began to take it off, but Poe stopped him saying "No, don't. It suits you."

As Finn put it back on, he said "Look, I need your help with something."

After Finn explained what had happened, Poe and him jogged to the command center where Leia and Han were waiting. Poe said "I'm sorry for interrupting ma'am, but you need to hear this."

Leia said "I heard. I'm sorry about Rey."

Finn replied "So am I, but right now, I need to tell you a few things."

Poe interrupted "Finn worked on Starkiller Base. He knows a few things that can help us."

Leia pleaded "Tell us everything."

Rey's POV:

As Rey regained consciousness, she saw him in the corner. She asked "Where am I?"

The monster replied "You're my guest."

Rey asked "Where are they?"

He asked "You mean the thieves, terrorists, and traitors you call friends? You'll be happy to know I have no idea."

Examining her for a few seconds, he said "You still want to kill me."

She replied "That's what happens when you're being hunted by a creature hiding behind a mask."

As she watched, he shifted his hands up to the sides of the helmet and released the latches. The front shifted up and he pulled it off with ease. When he put it on a table of ashes, she examined his face (Not a really good describer). He had nearly pitch black hair that curled in a finesse fashion. His eyes, cold and enduring, held a certain warmth. His skin standing out against the pure black of his outfit. His voice, still resembling the one from the mask, said "Who's hiding?"

Rey couldn't help but feel as if she was supposed to know him. Then she recognized him. He was older and the robes were different, but it was him. The boy from the vision. He stepped closer to her and said "I believe you have seen the map leading to Skywalker, but that's not what I'm looking for."

He took out her necklace and said "The last time I saw this, my friend was taken away from me. She made them so, in her words, we could have a piece of one another. Friends forever. Then she was gone and I never saw her again. I spent years searching and now, you are the one thing in my way."

He then reached out with his hand and she suddenly felt his presence invade her mind! He said "You know I can take whatever I want."

After several seconds of the uncomfortable breaking of her mental wall, he leaned in and whispered "Jakku. You were so afraid to leave. At night, desperate for sleep, you imagine an ocean. I see it. Oh, I see the island... and Han Solo. You think of him as the father you never had. He would have disappointed you. You put a façade of light to those around you, but I see where it fades."

He reached further, but as he did, he felt her resisting him. The girl was strong with the Force. He asked again "Where is she?"

Han's POV:

As they looked at BB-8's piece of the map, Leia said "I can't believe I thought I could find Luke and bring him home."

Han tried to comfort her, but she said "Don't do that."

He asked "What?"

She replied "Anything."

Han said defensively "I'm trying to help."

Leia replied "When was the last time you actually helped? And don't say the Death Star."

She went to her briefing room, where the plans for the attack on Starkiller Base were underway.

Leia had called all of the admirals, captains, and pilots to discuss the plan for taking down the First Order's weapon. One of them asked "So it's another Death Star?"

Poe replied "I wish that was the case, Captain. This is the Death Star."

A hologram opened, showing a Death Star the size of a baseball.

Poe continued "And this is Starkiller Base."

Another hologram showed a model of Starkiller Base. It dwarfed the Death Star, making it seem like a small moon after all. A chorus of gasps echoed across the room, followed by Han saying "So, it's big."

One of the admirals asked "How is it possible to power a weapon of that size?"

Finn explained "It uses the stars. It drains their solar power until almost nothing is left, then it fires. There's just enough mass left from the sun for it to go back to it's original size in the matter of a few hours."

Han asked "So, how do we blow it up? There's always a way we could do that."

One of the captains said "Something that big has to have a power modulator. Where is it?"

Finn pointed out a large hexagonal structure and the captain continued "If we can disable that, the energy will double back and destroy the weapon."

Han said "Chewie and I can take the Falcon and take the shields down."

Finn said "I'm coming with you. I used to stationed there. I know it inside and out."

Leia went over the plan before saying "May the Force be with us all."

Ren's POV:

As Kylo Ren probed the girl's mind, he saw everything she had experienced, but something was blocking him from earlier memories. He carefully examined the wall until he found a weak spot. Pulling all of his energy together, he rammed through the wall and the memories showed themselves.

Rey's POV:

Rey felt an earthquake of pain in her head as a flood of images rampaged her mind! It all blurred by until it slowed down to one sentence.

"I think you and I will get along just fine, Rey."

As she came out of the memory, the man stumbled back as he whispered "It is you, it is you."

Then she knew who he was. Her friend.

"Ben."

Ren's POV:

Before he had been able to fully comprehend it, Hux had dragged him away from Rey for Snoke.

Snoke roared "The scavenger... resisted you!"

Ren replied "She is strong with the Force. Untrained, but more powerful than knows."

Kylo Ren had faked a story as to dodge suspicion.

Snoke asked "Wait. I sense something within you... you have compassion for her."

Grateful the mask was hiding his evident anger, he lied "I don't feel anything for her, much less compassion."

Snoke, buying it for now, continued "And the droid?"

Hux interrupted "Ren believed it was no longer necessary, that the girl was everything we needed. He allowed the droid to escape into Resistance hands. Luckily enough, we were able to track the fighters to the Ileenian system."

Snoke replied "Ready the weapon. We must destroy them before they reach Skywalker."

Ren said "Supreme Leader, I have complete faith that I can get the map from the girl."

Snoke simply said "If what you say about her is true...bring the girl to me."

Ren nodded stiffly, trying to hide his rage

As he stalked back to the interrogation room, he couldn't help but ask himself "What will I do now?"

He couldn't bring her to Snoke, he would twist her and hurt her in ways he could not imagine. If they ran, they'd be hunted by the First Order for the rest of their lives. What could he do?

So that is it for this chapter! Sorry if it's a bit short, but for now that's it. At least until I release the next chapter. Now, last chapter, I asked you all which story I should do. So far, I only got one vote, or as close to a vote as I could get, for the Suicide Squad option. So I'm going to put them up again. Note: These will not happen until after I'm done with this story, but I will write the one with the most votes when I'm done. So get your votes in now, please!
