That night Rey's sleep was plagued by nightmares and she tossed and turned all night.
It was raining heavily and Kylo-Ren had a hold on a young Rey's arm and he was dragging her away as she screamed and cried out for her family to come back when someone called out to Kylo-Ren in the distance.
"Ben! Don't do this, fight it. Don't let the dark side corrupt you like this." the voice called.
"It's too late Uncle, I'm already on the dark side and I'm going to finish what my grandfather started!" Kylo called back to them.
Uncle? That must be Luke.
"My father was no great hero Ben, your grandfather was a monster! Don't be like that, like him you're better than that and your sister dosen't deserve this. What has made you so full of hate that would cause suffering and pain to both your sister and your parents like this?" Luke questioned and Kylo laughed.
"Ask your brother in-law! Han Solo has never believed in me, no matter what I did it was never good enough but when came to Jaina! His precious little Rey of light, Oh she could do no wrong and I hate her for it! He should have been proud of me, he should have loved me but all he could see was his perfect little princess! So now they will both suffer as I have when they realize their precious Rey has lost her light! Han and Leia Solo will wish I had never been born!" Kylo-Ren shouted before he grabbed four year old Rey's arm and dragged her onto an unknown ship as Luke left on a ship of his own.
"Rey! Rey, wake up honey! You're having a bad dream!" Leia called softly.
Rey screamed in her sleep,"No, come back! Uncle Sky come back!"
"Ben, why do you hate queenie and daddy so much?" Rey asked in her sleep and Leia covered her mouth with her hand to muffle her choked sob.
Leia took a deep breath, kissed Rey's forehead gently and then stormed out of the room, down the hall and into her brother's room before she kicked Luke awake.
"Ow! What the hell Leia? Wh-" Luke tried to say but she cut him off.
"You told us she was dead, Luke!" Leia screamed angrily and Luke scratched his head.
"Sis, what are you talking about?" Luke asked before he silently answered his own question,"Oh!..."
"Oh! You knew all this time that my baby was alive and all you can say is Oh?! You knew that Rey was Jaina all along and you made up that story about some drifter killing her! You said you weren't there but she seems to remember otherwise sub-consciously at least! As she was screaming,'No Uncle Sky, come back!' and then asking her brother and I quote,'Ben, why do you hate queenie and daddy so much?'! You know that Queenie was her nickname for me when she was little! She's dead, I'm so sorry Leia! Yeah not so dead now is she Luke and you left her with the monster my son has become! Why didn't you do something?! You're a Jedi for god sake or at least you used to be!" Leia hissed mockingly and Luke tried to reach for her but she slapped his hand away.
"Don't touch me! You're no better than our father was!" Leia hissed seething with pure rage.
"Leia, Listen to me-" Luke pleaded,"No Luke, you listen! If I ever forgive you it will not be anytime soon and-" Leia trailed off as she heard the sound of a ship being started up.
"She heard us! Nice going Leia, really!" Luke scoffed and Leia rounded on him before her hand hit his cheek hard.
"Don't you dare act like this is my fault, Luke Skywalker! If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't even be in this situation! But know this Luke, if anything happens to her I will never forgive you!" Leia spat and stormed out of the room.
Poe was standing at the far end of the corridor and approached her cautiously,"General it was Rey and it looks like she was headed in the direction of the first order." he informed her nervously.
"Thank you Poe. I'm sorry if I woke you up but it's a good thing I did because I need to tell you something and you must promise me that you will not tell another living soul in the entire galaxy." Leia replied.
"My lips are sealed General." Poe promised and Leia nodded sharply.
"Good. Now listen carefully, Rey is my long lost daughter and I will not lose her a second time so we're going to get her and bring her back. Let everyone sleep another hour or so but after that wake them up and tell them this war is no longer just about the galaxy's safety because it just got way more personal. We are still going to protect the galaxy but I have a personal stake in this war and that stake is my son! You know him as Kylo-Ren but he wasn't always the monster he is now. I want you to do something for me and I will explain why later but if you see an opportunity for a clear shot at my son, I want you to take that shot but don't shoot to kill. I'm not done being his mother yet and I want him alive so I look into his eyes when I make him tell his father the truth about what he did to his sister and why." Leia said, her voice cold and a look of ruthless determination on her face.
"Yes General!" Poe said and saluted her before walking away.
"Poe?" Leia called,"Yes General?"
"Call me Leia for crying out loud, you make me like some army brat when you call me General. It may be my rank but I'm still just Leia Organa and I promise it won't offend me if you call me as such." Leia demanded with a smirk and Poe nodded.
"I... I don't think Han would like that very much." Poe replied feeling slightly awkward.
"Oh for galaxy's sake, you just leave Han to me if he has a problem with it. Just don't call me General and don't even think about calling me Ma'am! Just call me Leia, if only to make me happy and stay in my good graces." Leia said slyly and Poe gulped.
"Yes of course... Leia." Poe choked out and backed away slowly.
Leia snickered as he went back to his room and burst out laughing as soon as Poe was out of earshot.
"To stay in my good graces. Ha! That's a good one and look on his face, priceless! Ha Ha Ha." Leia laughed at the little prank she'd played on Poe so that he call her by name instead of rank.
