Rey looked up in alarm, Finn grabbed her arm.

"Someone's on our tail." He muttered, looking at the radar screen from his place between Master Skywalker, who was piloting, and Rey, who was in the Co-pilot's seat.

"I know." She said, looking to the Jedi for help. "Should Finn get to the gun?" she asked.

"Hmm. No." He closed his eyes, and Rey felt him reaching through the Force. Finn shivered.

"Rey." Her master continued. "Prepare to jump to hyperspace. The coordinates are 319-452…" He rattled off the numbers, and Rey hurriedly inputted them. Then threw the lever. Finn gripped the console. A couple of minutes later, they emerged. Rey looked around, but they seemed to be in deep space between systems.

"Master…" Rey said, confused.

"Its alright, Rey." He answered, before closing his eyes again. "We are going to make another jump. Go to 387-…" Finn sat in one of the seats behind them. He was pretty sure they would jump through several rounds of this, throwing whoever was on their trail off.

Rey flipped the lever.

"Well?" the Woman asked.

Morodè nodded silently. Who hadn't heard of Luke Skywalker? The Rebellion Hero who blew up to Deathstar, the Jedi who had defeated The Emperor and Vader. The mystery who had vanished when the Knights of Ren has emerged.

"Alright, I'm pretty sure five of the six of you can speak verbally, do I will ask you one more time. Have you heard of Luke Skywalker?"

"Yes." Morodè said, along with the other prisoners.

"Good Job. Well, Jedi and Sith and some of our nights of Ren and some other groups channel the Force. Have you heard of that?" her patronizing tone would have been annoying if Morodè wasn't sure this woman could and probably would kill her.

"Sort of?" the seamstress muttered.

"yeah."

"I guess."

"Yes."

"yes."

"I-I haven't." Loken's small voice quivered.

The woman looked at the little boy in the cell next to Morodè's , eyebrow raised. Then she nodded at Kylo Ren.

"See? This is why I said to start in the beginning." She gloated, then continued. "The Force is an energy that connects, creates, guides all life forms. The Force is what Jedi and Sith call on to do what they do."

"There are no more Sith." Kylo Ren growled. "they where week, and destroyed by the Jedi."

The Woman rolled her eyes. "There will always be Sith, as long as there are Jedi. It's a part of their ridiculous Light Side/Dark Side beliefs- inviting opposition. But that doesn't matter. To the Force, there are three kinds of organism. Care to guess what they are?"

Silence.

"Of course not." She sighed. "Well, there are Force-Sensitives, like Skywalker, Ren, and Myself, who can manipulate the Force in different ways. Then there are what I call Force-Capacitors. The Force swirls and acts frequently around them, but they don't control it. Then there are Dulls- no unusual Force activity at all. Does that make sense?"

Morodè was about to chorus yes, when Anti snorted.

"You said the Force is an energy field? Last I checked, Energy isn't sentient. But yeah, everything else was crystal clear."

Morodè wondered if this girl was stupid or brave. At this point, was there a difference?

"There are Sentient beings of Matter. The Force is the Sentient being of Energy. Any other questions? Perhaps one that doesn't highlight inhuman unintelligence?"

The human teen shifted, mentally adding cross species racism to the group's list of crimes. Human Supremists where rare on Vod, as humans just made up half the population, and the other half was the one with weapons.

Antu's eyes narrowed, but she looked back down, continuing to mess with her leg. Morodè couldn't blame the girl, she was developing a nervous twitch in here too.

"No? Well, now I have a question for you. Why do you think you are here?" she said in a sickly sweet voice that reminded Morodè of one particularly harsh history teacher she had had in her pre-teens.

"Well?"

"Dameron?" the General's voice interrupted Poe's thoughts on one of the newer recruited flying scores. He might be ready to join the Yellow Bloom reserves…

"Huh? Oh, yes General?" he perked up, abandoning the holofiles.

"I need you in my office. What do you know about the crew of Rouge One?"

Hadn't he just told Finn about this? Well, Finn and Rey had left a few days ago. But still, pretty recently.

"They were the team to retrieve the Deathstar Files. The Rouge Squadron is named for them, but the Flight Commander never goes by R-one, just R-leader."

"Yes, but I mean the individual crew. Specifically, their connection to Kyber Crystals."

"Oh. You mean the one Finn found?"

He still didn't trust that little gem. Too dangerous.

"Yes. I know your parents told you many stories of the Rebellion. Of all the members of Rouge One, whom do you think would possess a Kyber Crystal?"

That wasn't the question Poe had expected. "Well, Erso's father studied Crystals. Rook, Chirrut Imwe and Baze where all from Jedah, a Crystal mine. Those last two where Guardians of the temple there, so they could have owned on or two. Um, why where you wondering?" Did it matter whose it was? The entire squadron had died long ago, and the rocks deemed too dangerous for him to care whose it was. On the other hand, it could be an interesting price of history. And if it had really belonged to some of his heroes… but that was an 'if'. Because…

"Also, general, if I may say it, the Crystal could have been Imperial property. They were mining them for the Deathstar, perhaps they had a few extra hidden here with the plans. The explosion was huge, it could have been blown from anywhere this side of the planet."

General Organa nodded. She opened her office door, waving him in. "That is possible, but I don't think so- Imperial records say the few crystals not used were kept elsewhere." She closed the door carefully.

Poe nodded. "But what does the history of the Crystal matter now? It's with Finn and Rey and Skywalker- aren't they trying to figure it out?"

The General smiled lightly. "Yes. But…" she lifted a small pouch from her desk. "We found another one."

Tilting the pouch, she dropped a round green Crystal onto her desk.

Poe almost swore.

"We're safe now." Master Skywalker announced suddenly. Finn smiled shakily- they must have made more than a dozen mini jumps through hyperspace.

"Prepare to jump to Dagobah." He continued, and Finn tried not to sigh. He didn't dislike flying, but short repetitive dips in and out of hyperspace spent in tense silence was less than enjoyable.

"Wasn't that where you trained?" Rey asked, hoping to relax Finn.

"Yes." The Jedi smiled wryly at the bittersweet memories of his time on the swampy planet. "Would you like to hear about it?" He asked Finn.

The younger man thought he was still talking to his apprentice, and started when he realized the question was for him. "Oh, yeah." He fumbled.

Luke smiled, remembering a similar young man who had stumbled through his first mission with a Jedi. Though, hopefully, this one wouldn't end up related to the pretty girl on board. Speaking of, in case Rey's affections headed towards a different direction, he better warn her.

"Well, Obi Wan Kenobi was my first teacher…" he started, and soon the others on board relaxed, eagerly taking in the stories, whether or not they had been told them before.

Morodè thought about it. Well, if there were three categories of Force-involvement, there was something important about theirs- or the woman was playing mind games with them- and they probably weren't 'Dulls'. Now, if they were Force Sensitive, then Ren might want to kill them like he had the other Jedi. Or have them join him, but that didn't seem likely. On the other hand, if they were Force-Capacitors, were they any help to them?

Well, Morode had certainly never done anything Jedi-ish, or been tested for it.

Apparently, the others thought along the same lines.

"Am i- Are we- Force-Capacitors? A male voice Morodè couldn't quite see the source of asked.

"Very good." She clapped sarcastically. "Now, The Force technically flows through inorganic as well, though there are obviously no force sensitive bricks or droids." Morodè briefly remember a kid's story she had read once about a Jedi Droid. Apparently, that was not possible. "But, there are inorganic Force-Capacitors. They are called Kyber Crystals."

A few of the Knights looked at each other. It was impossible to tell why, not with those masks.

"Yes." The Woman smiled, looking at the Knights who had shifted. "Kyber Crystals are amazing sources of power. Lights sabers, Deathstars, that sort of thing."

Deathstars? Morode shivered, rembering her history lessons of the planet destroying machines. There where some Alderaani survivors on Vod, but they where almost everywhere humans could live. Morode couldn't image losing her world. Of course, Star Killer Base had destroyd an entire system…

"And other types of Force Capacitors have the same potential." The woman finished.

Oh. Kriff, that was not good.

"Shall we test this theory? Before we continue?" One of the Knights asked.

Oh, Sith on a Bantha, that was even worse. Morodè clenched her fists, looking at Antu is terror. The Twi'lek matched her expression.

Kylo Ren looked at the Knight who has asked. "Do you doubt this plan?" he asked, and it was obvious he was not pleased with his cohort.

"Of course not, I just… I apologize, I was over eager to see it in action." The cowed knight said in a rush. Morodè realized his hands trembled slightly.

"No." the woman said. "He's right. Just… not right now."

The knights nodded, but Morodè knew everyone- the knights, the prisoners, even the guards, where all wondering the same thing: "When?"

AN:AY! another chapter! a lot of the OC stuff, sorry guys, there's just a lot more stuff to establish with them, comparitively. on the bright side, POE DAMERON and LUKE being awesome/ funny (to laugh at. poor poe. he does not want any more magical death rocks)

Unfortunately, Poe will not get his wish.

ANYWAY, I would love a review, tell me what you think of it. (seriously. what do you think of the OC's? They Kyber Crystal Premise? the anything? I'm sorry I just sorta really crave validation or acknowledgement.)

Sorry. rant over. See you lovelies soon.

next chapter- Poe gets another solo mission (bc that worked so well last time...) Luke, Rey, Finn see Dagobah and Kylo... well, is Kylo...

Anyone want to guess who or what the Woman is?
