QUICK NOTE
Yes I am aware we have no idea who Rey's parents are, SO my story will just be based off of one of the theories. I am also aware that may be incorrect, or you may or may not agree. I don't care either way, it is what is necessary for this story.

POV: Rey

"You knew my grandfather?" My voice was no more than a whisper as I deactivated the lightsaber in shock.

"Of course I know him, he's my mentor and friend. He's one of the wisest people I have ever met." He smiled slightly as he sat down by the wall. "I'm guessing you want to know him?" He asked, beckoning me to sit in front of him.

I nodded excitedly as I plopped down criss cross in front of him like a child awaiting a bed time story.

"It all started when I came to be in possession of a curious little astro droid called R2D2. The same droid who claimed to be the property of Obi Wan Kenobi..."

POV: Kylo Ren

"How did it go?" Hux pressed as soon as I had step foot on the shuttle.

I didn't answer right away as I brushed straight past him, towards an area that wasn't crowded with Stormtroopers.

Only when I was sure he had followed me did I speak.

"Well if you couldn't tell already, I failed." I muttered from under my mask, refusing to look at Hux.

"What happened? She was vulnerable! How could you let her just slip away like that?!" He whined loudly as a I felt his annoyance heat up, it infuriated me.

"Perhaps, I have a better plan." I stated cryptically, trying to ignore him, for Snoke would be severely displeased if the General showed up in two pieces instead of one.

"And what brilliant plan might this be?" He inquired snarkily. "Supreme Leader Snoke will not be pleased with-"

"Don't berate me! You forget your place, Hux. It is pointless to tell him, but go ahead, if you wish, you will regret it." I cut him off as I spun around and glared at him. Prior to turning, I thought I saw him shrivel a bit and that made me slightly more satisfied. "He said to have the scavenger dead or turned before the week is out, and that is just what I'm going to do. I have my strategy for completing the task."

He seemed to push down his fear of my threat quickly as he countered, "How is saving the girl a strategy?" He snapped, trying to maintain his bad attitude.

"Wouldn't you like to know." I smirked under my mask as he narrowed his eyes at me furiously.

"Obviously, that's why I'm asking." He growled as he crossed his arms over his chest in a huff. I tuned his voice completely out.

I ignored him the rest of the way back to the ship all the while considering the real reason I had saved her.

I couldn't let her die. Not like that.

I needed a chance.

A chance to save her from the light.

POV: Rey

"So you're telling me I'm Obi Wan Kenobi's granddaughter? I'm a Kenobi?!" I couldn't stop the disbelief in my voice as I stared at Luke with an open mouth.

"That is exactly what I'm telling you." He alleged calmly, unfazed by my total shock.

"Then who are my-"

"Parents? It doesn't matter who they were. We have more pressing mattes to attend to now." He got to his feet swiftly and held out his hand to me. "You've got a mission to do."

I glared at his hand as I attempted to smother the immense inferno that blazed inside of me, but still my questions burned at the back of my mind, threatening to explode.

How could he do this?! He knows who my family is, but won't tell me?! That is beyond cruel.

Finally I took his hand and allowed him to help me up, though I did most of the work.

"What mission?" I tried to sound enthusiastic, but honestly I couldn't care less about the mission. I just wanted to know what Luke knew.

"Leia has informed me that the First Order is on the move again. It seems that losing Star Killer Base had not incapacitated them as much as we had thought." He explained as we walked towards the shore of the island.

"What do you- oh." The look of pain on Luke's face stopped me from asking. I immediately thought of all the horror that Finn had told me the First Order leaves in its wake.

"They're looking for something again. Their killings aren't sparatic. Entire villages are being wiped out, but it isn't random."  Luke trailed off as he thought for a moment while not breaking his stride down the stone stairs.

"What could they possibly be looking for now?" I asked as my eye brows scrunched in confusion. "Maybe it's not a what. What if it's a who? It's you obviously, they haven't stopped-"

Luke stopped abruptly and turned to me, grasping my arms firmly but still gentle. "They wanted to find me before you did, but now they know you have found me. It's too late. Killing me wouldn't do any good considering I've already trained you." He explained softly as he searched my eyes for something unknown.

"I don't-"

"It's you. They're looking for you, Rey." He whispered quietly.

My heart seemed to skip a beat as the trepidation set in.

All those people... They were dead because of me.

I pushed myself out of Luke's grasp as tears started to prick my eyes.

"Rey-"

"Don't. Just tell me what I have to do." I could hear the grief crack in my voice and I grimaced as a tear escaped, dripping down my cheek.

"Nothing." My head snapped up to look at him, dazed. "You will do nothing." He repeated as he broke away from my gaze wretchedly.

"I will not sit by as innocents are slaughtered because of me!" I felt anguish bubble up in my chest as my fists clenched and I glared at him through narrowed eyes.

"There's nothing for you to do Rey. You might be able to take on Kylo Ren, but you are nowhere near ready to face Snoke. It will take time-"

"But what if-"

"No! I am going to go aid the Rebellion. The only way to stop the killing is to find more force sensitives and train them to stand with us. Only then can you finish your training and eventually face Snoke, but it will take years-"

"You want to bring more force users into this?! Isn't that what started this in the first place?!" I protested, shocked that the master that I had been with for a year was turning his back on his own advice.

"I will never let that happen again." He whispered and my anger was stifled at the pain in his voice.

"What am I supposed to do?" I asked pitifully soft.

"I will be back as soon as I can to finish your training, but I've been away from the Rebellion for too long to stay." He murmured, more to convince himself. "You have your own lightsaber now, you will practice everyday with it. You will run the exercises I've taught you. Most importantly, you will stay here."

I opened my mouth to let out a shriek of protest, but I shut it quickly knowing it would be futile. I looked away, unable to meet his tired blue eyes any longer.

"Fine." I breathed after a silence that seemed to stretch for forever.

I hadn't realized we had reached the shore until I heard the buzz of a transport ship grow closer. It was the same ship that General Organa had been on when we had first met.

"Rey promise me you'll be safe. Promise me you'll stay here." My eyes broke away from the ship that had just landed as I directed my stare at Luke. His eyes held concern and his face pleaded for me to listen.

I nodded slowly, maintaining an emotionless expression.

Just like that he turned away and stepped onto the transport, wrapped in Leia's arms the moment he had gotten close.

I saw it only for a couple seconds because as soon as the ship had arrived, it was taking off again.

I couldn't help but think of the last time I had been forced to watch a ship leave the atmosphere. Both times the ships harbored people I cared about. Both times they had left me with nothing but the promises of their return. Both times I had had a feeling that I would never see them again.

I felt tears start to stream down my face as I continued to stare at the already empty sky.

No. I wasn't going to give up that easily.

I sucked in a salty breath before starting up the mountain again, pulling out the holo communicator that had been given to me for emergencies.

I hastily wiped my face before pressing the call button hesitantly. Only a couple seconds had passed before a fury head had shown itself, his bellowing sounding strange through the holocall.

"Chewy, I need your help." I stated strongly as I felt my lightsaber hilt hit my leg periodically as I continued to march up the mountain.
