Rey wanted to tell Jaina. She had sat her down in her quarters, and began as quickly as she could.

"Am I in trouble?" Jaina folded her arms across her chest.

"No," Rey said. "But you and your brother are in danger."

"What?" Jaina blinked.

"Jacen told me he was being visited by a scarred, disfigured man in his dreams," Rey said. "That he's been interfering with your bond. He threatened Jacen last night. Have you experienced the same thing?"

Jaina frowned. "I've seen him in my dreams. And my bond with Jacen was off yesterday morning, but he said it was just a fluke."

"You may have some protections or something that Jacen doesn't have," Rey said. "Or Jacen has been unconsciously shielding you. But you have seen him?"

"I have," Jaina said. Something shifted within her as she made a realization. "Why isn't Jacen in here?"

"Because we had a version of this discussion last night," Rey said. "But here's what you need to know. That old man is Snoke—"

"The old Supreme Leader before Kylo Ren," Jaina said. "I know about him. Came out of nowhere, is a major creep. You killed him."

Rey really regretted telling everyone that she did it. She looked down at her hands. "Yes, well, your father. . . Your father was haunted by Snoke since before he was born. Your father will know better than I will how to help you both."

"Wait, so we're going to meet him," Jaina said. "His name was Ben, he was a Jedi, and haunted by Snoke. . . So he's Ben Solo."

"What?" Rey had not anticipated this.

"Han and Leia's son who went missing when the academy burned down," Jaina said. "My history textbooks say that Kylo Ren killed him. But that's not true, is it? You found him, and you fell in love, and— and that's why he can't meet us! Because no one can know he's alive until the right time!"

A grin was spreading up Jaina's face. "We are Skywalkers! And Solos!"

"Wait, that's not quite—"

Before Rey could finish and let her daughter down gently, she heard her commlink beep. She cursed under her breath, and turned it on. Poe's voice came over.

"Sunshine, this is Black Leader! Come in! Story is down in the hospital wing with her Apprentice, and neither of them are looking too good!" Poe shouted.

Jaina's grin was wiped clean as she realized what was happening. Rey recognized the callsign.

"Coming, Black Leader," Rey said. She turned the commlink and looked to Jaina. "It's Elora Daan and Tash Arranda. They're in trouble."

Rey and her daughter sprinted into the medcenter, just as they wheeled in Tash Arranda on a medi-transport. She was missing half of her left arm, had a burn mark on her forehead near her hairline and down her leg, and was covered in grime, blood, and bruises.

"What happened?" Rey asked, following the girl. Tash was in agony, and awake.

"We were attacked," Tash said, her voice breathy and high-pitched, on the verge of whining. "The Knights of Ren came to Upahatu."

Rey's blood ran cold. No. They couldn't have. Ben would never let them. . .

Tash grabbed Rey's hand with bloodied fingers. "Please, I don't want to die. . . I think Master Elora's dead."

"It's going to be alright," Rey said. "No one is going to die."

She then extended her hand over Tash's forehead, just like Ben had taught her. Tash's eyes closed, and her breathing was much more steady.

"Thank you," one of the medics said.

Rey looked ahead, to one of the other medi-transports, this one with a sheet over the body. Tash was pulled into the operating room, and Rey and Jaina approached Poe by the other transport.

"She's not—" Jaina didn't finish her sentence as she eyed the shape of the body beneath the covered sheet.

"Dead by the time we got to them," Poe said. "The recovery squad is still retrieving the bodies of the Knights of Ren."

"Can I look?" Rey asked, nodding towards Elora's body.

"Of course," Poe said. He looked to Jaina. "Come on, let's go look somewhere else—"

"No," Jaina said firmly.

"Go with Poe," Rey said. "I'll be out in a little bit."

Poe smiled gratefully at Rey, and escorted Jaina out.

Rey pulled off the sheet. Elora was just as bruised and bloodied, but she had a stab wound through the heart. Rey re-covered Elora. She knew she would need to contact Elora's brother, her only remaining relative.

But she had something more important to do. She needed to find the so-called Knights of Ren. She had her suspicions about what they really were, but couldn't confirm until she'd seen the bodies.

She left the medcenter, to see Poe and Jaina standing outside.

"Where are they putting the bodies of the Knights of Ren?" Rey asked.

"They'll go mailed back to the First Order," Poe said. "They're in the morgue."

"I need to see them," Rey said.

"What for?" Poe asked.

"I have a theory," she said. "Come on, Poe, you know I wouldn't ask if I didn't really need it."

"I know," he said with a sigh. "Do you want Jaina with you—"

"If my theory turns out to be correct, I don't want her leaving my side," she said.

Jaina stood there, her anger building vaguely with her grief, like a cloud. Rey could sense it. Grief and anger were becoming mere vague feelings, not sharp, clear emotions and thoughts.

"I can't believe those monsters," Jaina said. "Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren deserve to die."

Her anger echoed out in the Force. Then, Rey made the decision she would regret the most. She decided that she'd let Jaina believe for now her father was a separate person from the man she hated.

"Poe, keep Jaina with you, and wait for Jacen to come back," Rey said. "Keep them with you until I tell you otherwise. Got it?"

"I've got it," Poe said. "Rey, what's going on?"

"I don't know," Rey said. "But I've got a bad feeling about this."

When she entered the morgue, she only needed to take one look at the bodies to know what was happening.

She knew by the robes, the rusted weapons, and the ancient masks that she wasn't dealing with the Knights of Ren. They were something else entirely, someone darker. Immediately her mind connected to the case of arson she learned about from Kyp Durron.

He thought they were the Knights of Ren, and they killed his parents to take him and his brother, but Ben said it wasn't them, they didn't know who did it, Rey realized. This and Snoke, while they weren't obviously linked, were happening too closely together for Rey's liking.

She needed to talk to Ben. Now.
