The scene before Ben took his breath away, those incidents have been happening for a while now, smugglers stealing to look for "innovating" things to sell in the black market.
Some of them have caused trouble but this is the first time something so big like this have occurred.
At least three buildings were in flames, right away you could see twenty people on the group, injured.
Ben is worried, he wishes his wife could be there with him, he could definitely use the help. He is also worry for Padmé, he might not know her, but for some reason he feels...protective over her.
Before he can process his thoughts for this girl, he sees her running towards the bigger building, and using a incredible amount of the force to lift things out of her ay.
He is impressed, Padmé uses the forces as if is second nature to her. Soon he realizes she doesn't need his help.
Ben goes into another building and start helping some of the people to get out, he puts out the fire and moves on to the next next.
Meanwhile Padmé is having a little fun moving the people out of danger, it felt good to be working together with the person you thought you would never see again.
They are almost done, the people are safely out, Padmé is now healing people with the force, which again surprises Ben.
Two hours later, they are almost done helping people with their injury.
Other people from neighborhood joins them and start helping.
Ben goes to a men that has some burns in his shoulder, he start cleaning the skin, until a sharp pain in his chest forces him to stop.
The men stabbed him.
Ben didn't realize but the men was one of the smugglers that had got injured.
"This is for your sins" says the smuggler, "do you even know how long it took me to find you? Once i take your head to the new first order, I will be rich!"
Padmé notices this and immediately stretches her hand, using the force she brings the men to her and starts to choke him, her stare is almost deadly.
before Ben can tell her to stop, she breaks his neck and the sound is the last thing Ben remembers before all went black.
Ben wakes up to his wife staring at him. He is confused, until the memories of the evening returns to him, he touches his chest and feels nothing, the wound was gone. Rey is the fisrt to speak, "Padmé brought you back bleeding, you almost gave me a heart attack! I told you to be more careful, you know I don't like you going into action when I'm no—" before she could finish, Ben got out and started running towards the garden.
"Where is she?" He asked nervously "where is Padmé?"
"She is outiside with the kids, she being really quiet since you guys came back"
Ben went out and looked, once he found her he used the force to paralyze her.
"Kids go inside, NOW" he yelled.
the kids were scared so they rushed inside their separate house.
Rey is confused a a little horrified, "Ben what are you doing?" She asked making her way to Padmé.
"STOP" Said Ben, more rigid then ever, "she killed a men today"
at this Rey stopped, she didn't know what to say.
"Who are you?" He asked "you have a incredible control over the force, after using for so long you still standing. I know you used the force to protect yourself from the flames, you are just as clean as when we found you." He narrow his eyes.
Padmé was petrified, she knew that it was wrong to kill that man, but she losses control when the people she love is in danger. She still afraid of Ben.
"I'm sorry, that was wrong, I just need a teacher to help me control my temper, I take it after my father" at this she gave a little sad smile.
Ben frees her.
"Please, let me stay here for a while, I can also help with your wife's pregnancy, I have training in the medical field" she is pleading with tears in her eyes, "please let me stay with you two, just for a little longer..." she whispers.
"what did you mean by "'I will not fail him twice"'?" Ben insisted in a harsh tone.
"BEN!" Rey's heart was full of compassion for Padmé, compassion that she couldn't even explain.
"You don't know me" Padmé Said "but I have no one to go back to, both my parents are...gone..." her voice cracks, "please "
"Yes" Rey finally gives in.
Rey walks towards Padmé and in a effort to comfort her, rey hugs her. Padmé cannot hold her tears any longer, Padmé weeps.
Ben doesn't agree but somewhere in his heart he wants this girl to stay, she reminds him a lot of himself.
The kind light is the scarlet sunset bless them, and a the path to healing is once more open.
