Author's Note: Hello my loves! I apologize I did not update yesterday. I had to work on some school stuff (even though i'm on Spring Break) and had to clean up my house a bit. But hey i'm back now so it's all good! (p.s. this chapter was slightly emotional for me to write, I hope you enjoy it, and don't hate me for it)


"Five days?! He told us we had five months?!" Rey exclaimed.

Kylo Ren ran his fingers through his hair, and sighed out in frustration, "I know, I know. I don't know why the sudden change in time frame. Unless-"

"Unless what? Do you think he knows? Suspects anything?" she asked.

"It's a strong possibility," he said. "I have been doing my best to keep him from entering my mind, but I could have accidently let him in without my knowledge."

She stood up from where she sat, and flung her arms about in an angry motion, "You let him in?! Ben you can't do that! You'll ruin everything we have worked so hard for!"

He stood up and towered over her, "Rey I can't always help it you know. He is far more powerful than myself."

She exhaled deeply, "Alright, well we can't just sit here can we? We've got to get moving. We need to train longer, harder each day. Day and night."

Ren looks at her and smirked, he loved her confidence, her assertiveness at that moment. "Lead the way then, sweetheart."

Rey smiled then, and kissed him on the forehead, she left the room. Ren then stood up slowly, smoothing out the wrinkles on his pants and followed after her.


Rey and Kylo Ren were now outside, both of their mouths slightly opened at the sight of what now stood before them. Master Luke and General Organa were dueling. They both watched in fascination as blue collided with gold. Ren was shocked to see his mother's abilities, she was good. Perhaps better than he was at wielding a saber.

The siblings stopped when they felt their presence.

"Ben, why do you look so surprised? " General Organa asked with a slight chuckle.

He stood there then, and just stared, "I had…when….what? You have a lightsaber? Since when? Why haven't I seen it?"

She wiped the sweat off of her forehead, "Since about…well…a year ago."

He looked at his uncle then, and then back at his mother, he stood up straight, "Wow, I am impressed to say the least. Your fighting skills are almost as good as mine, mother. Perhaps even better."

The General then walked up slowly to her son, saber still ignited, "Well, would you care to find out for yourself then boy?"

She twirled around her saber then, and stood in a fighting stance. Ren looked over at Rey, whose mouth was still slightly open. "Absolutely," he said as he ignited his red blade.

He lunged towards his mother then, and clashed his saber with hers. She fought back rather well, blocking each one of his hits. "Come on boy, don't hold back, I can take it," she informed him.

He realized then that he was slightly holding himself back, he was trying his best not to accidently hit his mother with his saber. He then straightened himself up and lunged at her arm, she retaliated.

She then began slashing her laser sword at her son rather brutally; she slashed and slashed and slashed until she hit his shoulder. He dropped to his knees, "Looks like you've been defeated by a woman, yet again, son," and kicked him in the chest as he fell to the ground.

Rey looked over at Master Luke, who was watching the duel unfold before him, "She's quite good, isn't she?" she asked him.

"Of course she is," he replied. "She's Leia."

"You alright son?" Leia asked him.

He rose to his feet then, feeling slightly embarrassed, as well as impressed, "Yes, yes I am fine," he said "That was…you were…incredible mother."

She smiled at him as she saw Rey and Luke talking, "Sorry I had to beat you in front of your girlfriend Ben," she laughed.

He slightly rolled his eyes, and patted his mother on the shoulder. As he walked over to Rey, she was laughing. "I can't believe you just got beat by your mother, Ben. How do you expect us to kill Snoke?" she asked, laughing even harder now.

He had no expression on his face as she continued on, and proceeded to pick her up, throwing her over his shoulder as he continued walking, "Hey! We have to train! Put me down you scoundrel!" she demanded as she began to pound at his chest.

He said nothing, and hollered back at his mother and uncle, "Good to see you two! Rey and I have some business to take care of."

Leia and Luke laughed as they heard Rey protesting in the distance, "They need to cherish this time of joy before they leave," Luke said. "Because who knows what will happen when they finally see him."

Leia exhaled, trying her best to hide her fear, "Come on Luke, let's continue where we left off," she said.

As Leia walked back to the middle of the field, Luke stared on for a moment and watched the two walk back inside before resuming dueling with his sister.


"Put me down! You will put me down this instant!" Ren smiled to himself as he made his way to his room, "You should know by now that Jedi mind tricks do not work on me sweetheart."

Rey started to scream in frustration as Ren opened and shut his door with his free hand. "Put me down! Now!" Kylo Ren finally obeyed her, and put her down. "Now, will you tell me why on earth you just-"

She was cut off then by his lips crashing into hers. She pulled back for a moment, "What are you doing?" she asked him. He looked into her eyes then, and said softly, "There's a chance we're not going to make it Rey, and-" She began to interject. "No no, you need to be quiet for a second and listen to me. You know it's the truth. We need to take that into consideration as our last days on D'Qar come to an end."

She met his eyes then, for she was looking away as he spoke, "So, what do you plan on doing about it then?" she asked.

He stared intensely into her eyes, and began to inch closer as he spoke, "Well," he said as he inched a little closer, "First, if I may say so boldly, I wish greatly to remove your clothes and take you right now against this wall." She cocked up an eyebrow, "Oh yeah? You would wouldn't you? And what if I were to say… no to that request?"

He smiled at her, "Then you would get to watch a grown man beg like a child." She laughed and rolled her eyes, and kissed him. He pressed her up against the wall then so tightly, she felt like she couldn't breathe. She broke away from him for a moment, "You know," she said coyly. He looked at her with confusion, "My leg still hurts a bit, and I am in an awful need of a shower, you think you could…help me with that?" He kissed her, and watched as she slowly made her way into the bathroom. He shut the door behind him, and proceeded to pick her up in his arms, kissing her passionately. As he slowly put her down, he started removing his shirt. She stared up at him, and touched the spot where his mother had just slashed him with her saber, "That looks like it hurts," she said as she graced her fingers over it.

He placed his hand over hers as she continued to grace her fingers over the wound, "Yeah, it does, I don't think I'll ever be able to use this arm again."

"What a shame," she said as she met his eye. He started kissing her again, and helped her remove her shirt over her head, she laughed as it got stuck on the lowest bun on her head, "Hahaha wait, wait hold on." He lowered the shirt back onto her body, and watched as she removed all three buns. He stood in there in awe, for he had never seen her without them. Her hair was a lot shorter than he had expected, it came to about two inches above her shoulders. He watched then as it fell down in waves. "God you're beautiful," he said as she lowered her last bun. He then helped her raise her shirt once more, and threw it to the ground.

He helped her then pull off her leggings, and watched as she slowly raised each leg out of them. He pulled off his pants then and watched as she got in the shower and turned the water on.

As he got in, he was overtaken by how beautiful she looked. There she was, hair now soaking wet, and her body slightly pink from the warmth of the water. He noticed then how she was looking at him. She didn't look down to examine his chest, or anything else. She simply stared at his face, at his eyes, at him. He slowly inched toward her, and cupped her jaw. He searched her face for a moment, and then smashed his lips onto hers. He began then to slowly lead her to the wall of the shower. Once they were there, and her back was against the surface, he raised her good leg up a smidge, so he would have an easier access to her entrance. She winced in pain as she adjusted her bag leg on the shower floor, "Are you okay? Am I hurting you?" he asked. "No, no you're not. It's just my leg. I'm fine,"she replied.

But she wasn't, he knew she wasn't. He lifted her up then, and she straddled his hips. "Better?" he asked her. She sighed, "Loads." They resumed kissing once more then as his manhood graced her entrance. Kylo Ren then said something he did not mean to say out loud, but in the heat of the moment, it just, well, slipped.

"Marry me," he said as he slightly groaned into her neck. He was thrusting himself into her now. "What?" she asked slightly breathless. He realized then what he had just said, and knew there was no taking it back.

"I said, marry me," he repeated confidently. She met his eye then, and he slightly groaned once more as he thrust himself into her.

"Okay," she whispered.

He looked at her slightly shocked, "Okay?" he repeated.

"I'll marry you." She said.

He smiled then, and pulled himself off of her. He then grabbed some soap off of the top rack of the shower. She stared at him in confusion, "Well, come here, you said you needed help," he told her. She smiled and walked over towards him. He wet his left hand then as he held the bar of soap in his right. Rey was now in front of him staring at the shower wall as he began to run in his fingers through her hair. "What will the other's say?" she asked as he continued to wash her hair. He hesitated for a moment, "I don't know," he said honestly. "They'll probably say that we are foolish, getting married before we go off to kill him."

She looked to the side, "Isn't it though?" she asked him as he began to lower his hands.

"What? Foolish? Getting married? No not at all. Do you not think we deserve a little happiness before all hell breaks loose?"

She turned around then to face him then, sensing his anger, "No, that's not what I am saying at all Ben. I-"

He was angry now, "You what?" he asked her.

"I just don't think that it's an appropriate time," she told him. "We need to focus on our mission. We owe that to every one you know. They are counting on us, Ben and if we get married right now, it'll become a huge distraction. We can't let our emotions cloud our judgement."

He sighed out deeply then in anger, and rushed out of the shower. Rey looked at him like he was insane. "Where do you think you are going?!" she asked him as she watched him get dressed.

"I don't have to take this. I don't have to take any of this," he said through gritted teeth. "If you won't marry me now, you never will. I'm going to go stop all of this madness, once and for all."

He rushed out of the room then, and Rey stood there slightly in shock. She snapped herself out of it and turned off the water. She practically threw on her clothes as fast she could and ran after him. She didn't see him anywhere as she ran through the base.

"Ben!' she screamed while crying. "Ben please! Stop! Don't do this now! Please!" Everyone was staring at her with concern as she ran through base, soaking wet, with both water, and her tears.

Once she made it outside she started screaming and running as she saw Captain Phasma's ship now in the air. General Organa, Luke Skywalker, Finn, and Poe were now all outside along with the others. They watched in agony as they heard Rey's screams. "NOOOOO! NOOOO! COME BACK, PLEASE COME BACK!" she screamed. "DON'T LEAVE ME! PLEASE! DON'T LEAVE ME!" And just like that, the ship disappeared from her sight.

He was gone.
