After the Resistance Members made it out of the cave they made their way to Ochi's ship.
"We cannot possibly fly this old wreck" 3-PO said.
"We need to keep moving and find someone who can translate that dagger" Poe said "Like a helpful droid"
"I suggest we return to the Millennium Falcon at once" 3-PO insisted.
"No 3-PO they'll be waiting for us there" Axel said.
"Yeah, then they'll throw us in the Pits of Griq" Finn said.
"And use you as a target droid" Poe said.
Suddenly both Rey and Axel sensed a dark yet familiar presence close by. Ren and Selena were close by.
"You feel that?" Rey asked.
"The cold" Axel replied as Finn walked up to them.
"What is it?" he asked the two force sensitives.
"We'll be right before you" Rey said handing Finn her staff.
"Try to get this bucket of bolts working, we'll be back as soon as we can" Axel said just before he and Rey walked off.
Not to far from the ship Rey and Axel walked to the middle of the desert sand. Just then they heard a familiar screeching sound in the distance.
"Have they always been persistent?" Rey ask as the screeching got closer and louder.
"You have no idea..." Axel said.
The two Force Sensitives took out their sabers and ignited the blue and purple blades just as the two Tie Intercepters came into veiw.
Rey and Axel turned their backs to the two fighters then started sprinting as fast as they could just before doing a back flip and cutting a wing off each Tie.
The Ties lost their wings and started rolling like two tumbleweeds until they both came to a stop.
"Rey! Axel! They got Chewie! They got him!" Finn called out pointing at a First Order transport that was taking off.
Seeing the transport Axel and Rey reached out with the Force and started pulling the shuttle down. Just then they spotted Kylo Ren and Selena without their helmets coming out of the rubble. They saw what their lightside counterparts were doing and used the force to pull the shuttle to them.
Both sides struggled to pull the Shuttle toward their side. It seemed evenly match until out of nowhere Rey shot lightning from her finger tips and blasted the shuttle causing it to explode and fall from the sky.
"CHEWIE!" Axel and Rey yelled out in horror.
"No!" Finn shouted as the rubble from the shuttle fell from the sky.
"Guy!" Poe called out "We gotta go! They're coming!"
"They're right lets go" Axel as he started running to the old ship only to realize he was running alone. He looked back at Rey who had a look of horror on her face as she stared at the hand she shot the lightning with. It wasn't until Axel grabbed the very same hand that she snapped out of it and looked at at him. "Rey we have to go!"
Axel and Rey both ran to the ship while still holding hands. Once they got inside the ship the Resistances members took off.
Later in and astroid field Rey kept looking at her that shot the lightning. The feeling of guilt and regret washed over her.
"I lost control" She muttered to herself.
Axel then approached her gently.
"Rey" He said softly as he reached for his girlfriend's hand. Just before he could touch it Rey quickly pulled her hand away and backed away from him.
"Axel no, please just stay away from me" Rey said as she started tearing up. "Please...I'm dangerous, I don't to hurt you"
"You're not dangerous Rey" Axel stepping closer to her.
"I killed Chewie" Rey whispered.
"It was an accident Rey. I know you didn't mean to do it" Axel said. "Rey, every Jedi faces the darkside even the strongest can give into it hell even my dad did a few times when he was younger. and even I did but you pulled me back. It doesn't define you or change what me and the others think about you. You're still their friend and you're still the woman I love"
Rey then embraced Axel with the biggest hug she could possibly give him. The couple then looked into each others eyes.
"I need to tell you something" Rey said.
"What is it?" Axel asked.
"I had a vision" Rey said "Of the Throne of the Sith. You and I-"
"Were both sitting on the Throne" Axel said "I saw it too. I heard Palpatine say 'Join me...and you'll be so much more than a king. You will become...Emperor"
Axel and Rey joined the other's in the hanger bay of the ship.
"We only got 8 hours left. So what are we gonna do?" Poe asked.
"What can we do? We gotta go back to the base" Finn said.
"We don't have time to do that Finn, we gotta find out where the Wayfinder is" Axel said "If we go back Chewie died for nothing!"
"Chewie had the dagger!" Finn said.
"Well, then we gotta find another way" Poe said.
"There isn't, that was the only clue to the Wayfinder thing and it's gone" Finn said.
"So true" 3-PO said "The inscription lives only in my memory now"
"Wait what?" Axel asked while he and the others were confused. "You mean to tell me you have the inscription of the dagger inside that gold chrome dome of yours?"
"Yes Master Axel" 3-PO said "But the translation from a forbidden language cannot be retrieved. That is short of a complete redacted memory bypass"
"A what?" Finn asked.
"It's a terribly dangerous and sinful act preformed on unwitting droids by dregs and criminals" 3-PO replied.
"Lets do that" Finn said.
"I know a black market droidsmith" Poe said. "But he's on Kijimi"
"What's wrong with Kijimi?" Axel asked.
"I had a little bad luck on Kijimi" Poe said. "But if this mission fails it's all been for nothing. All we've done, all this time"
"That's why we can't fail" Axel said. "We're all in this together until the end"
Axel reached out his hand to the middle of the group. It wasn't too much longer when Rey placed her hand on top of his.
"For Chewie" She said
"For Chewie" Axel said as Finn placed his hand on top of her followed by Poe and 3-PO.
later while still in the ship BB-8 rolled up to Axel and Rey with a new droid with a cone shaped head and a single wheel.
"Hel-Hello" The little droid greeted.
"Hello" Rey greeted as she reached toward it.
"No...No thank you" The droid said.
"He's scared" Axel said. "Ochi must've treated him badly"
"It's alright, you're with us now" Rey said.
Later the Resistance members made their to Kijimi. They covered themselves with hooded cloaks so the First Order wouldn't recognized them.
The other's were waiting in an ally for Poe until he came back.
"They're everywhere" Poe said I know what we should do"
"We should leave" 3-PO said.
"Shut up droid" Axel said.
"Follow me" Poe said as he led the others to another ally "Alright, let'shead down this way-"
Suddenly Poe was interrupted by a pistol being pointed at his head.
"Heard you were spotted at Monk's Gate a woman wearing a red one peice suit and gold helmet with a black visor. "Thought He's not stupid to come back here"
"Oh, you'd be surprised" Poe said.
"Who's this?" Rey asked.
"Guy's this Zorii. Zorii, this is Rey, Finn and Axel" Poe introduced.
"I could pull this trigger right now" Zorii threatened.
"I've seen you do worsed" Poe said.
"For a lot less" Zorii said.
"Let's just talk about this" Poe said.
"I wanna see your brains in the snow" Zorii said.
"So, youre still mad?" Poe asked "Zorii, we could use your help. We gotta crack this droids head open and fast. We're trying to find Baby Frik"
"Babu only works with the crew" Zorii said "That's not you anymore"
"What crew is she talking about?" Axel asked.
"Oh funny he never mentioned it" Zorii said. "Your friends old job was running spice"
"You were a spice runner?" Finn asked.
"You were a Stormtrooper?" Poe countered.
"Were you a spice runner?" Axel asked.
"We're you pretending to be a scavenger" Poe countered again.
"Were you a spice runner?" Rey asked.
"Were you a real scavenger? we could go all night" Poe said.
"We don't have all night.I'm still digging out of the hole you put me in when you left to join the Resistance" Zorii said as she looked at Axel and Rey. "You two, you're the ones they're looking. Bounty for these two will cover us"
Just then they were surrounded by Zorii's crew. Then Rey and Axel fought them off until Axel used the force to pull Zorii closer and held his purple blade close to her neck.
"Listen here you bitch, we are on a tight schedule and we need to open up our droids head so we can save the galaxy from something far more dangerous than the First Order. Now we've had a stressful couple of hours so I'm not in the mood to be nice. So take us to this Babu Frik right now or ill cutt off your tits and shove them down your fucking throat and watch you choke to death"
Zorii then slowly raised her hands in surrender.
"Not that you care...But I think you're kinda hot" Zorii.
"Thanks, but I'm happily taken" Axel said putting the woman down and deactivating his saber. "Now, where's Babu Frik?"
