Rey' POV:

After the long flight, I finally landed the Falcon at the Resistance base. I am eager to get out and stretch my legs. As I leave the Falcon I get a bad feeling through the force that something is not right. "I've got a bad feeling about this BB-8. Stay here and stay quiet." I order the little droid that tries to follow at my heels. 'The base is too quiet.' I don't see anyone around even though I can sense the presence of my friends. Igniting my new golden lightsaber as I slowly explore the base. I hate being on edge like this but I can't seem to shake this bad feeling I am having. BB-8 rolls up to me and beeps at me trying to figure out what's going on. "Go back on the ship as I told you, it might not be safe" I attempt to explain to the stubborn droid once more. I give up as he follows me for the third time, 'stupid silly little droid'. We start to enter the base with extreme caution since we don't know what to expect. As I enter one of the makeshift shelters, my eyes land on the white armor of a stormtrooper in the middle of the base. Closing my eyes I gently enter the stormtrooper's mind to see what has been going on, hoping to force them don't feel it. When I finally find what I am looking for, I am surprised to find out that the war is not quite over yet. The Final Order is still in control of the stormtroopers and they were ordered to come here and capture the Resistance fighters on this base. To this stormtrooper's knowledge, their mission is to capture this base and use every one as an example to others as to why they should never even consider joining the Resistance and its cause. The only exception is to leave a select few here to be used as bait to capture me. I slowly withdraw from his mind not wanting the risk of getting caught. I am more pissed off than ever.' Why can't we ever seem to catch a break?'

Ben's POV:

Rey lands the Falcon on the Resistance base and I get a bad feeling through the force that something is not right. As Rey walks out of the ship I continue to stay close to her as the other force ghost has instructed me to do. 'Where is everyone?' Whenever I get a chance I keep trying to reopen our force bond but I am unsuccessful. I am watching Rey stare at the stormtrooper in the distance, as she does I can feel extreme anger and darkness trying to take over her. This starts to scare me as I sense the darkness trying to creep over and force her light in the shadows. With everything I have, I try to push into her mind. "Rey, enough!" I demand. "You know this isn't you. You always knew there would be some loose ends remaining. So stop, please stop, do it for me." I begged her, wishing I could do nothing more than snap her out of it.

Rey's POV:

With my hands outstretched, I'm ready to kill the stormtrooper with my force lightning and go on a murderous rampage. I stop when I hear a voice inside my head, his voice. My knees give out and I fall to the ground as the shock sets in. "Ben?" I say in a shaky voice and I question if it is him or someone/something else trying to trick me. My body is frozen in shock for a moment. 'How had I let the darkness get so close to taking me over?' I was scared of the fact I was so willing to take it by the hand and do as it commanded of me. I pull myself together, my hands still shaking at the fear of what I was about to do. Fighting my way to my friends, I do my best to be extra careful. Doing my best not to kill anyone as I go, just knocking them out so we can lock them up and question them for later. I was worried if I took a life right now I would lose full control.

Ben's POV:

'I did it! I got through to her. She really heard me.' I'm shocked that I did it. I got through to her, she really heard me. I start to cry as I replay the way she said my name over and over again in my mind. I was able to save her even from here. I slowly start to feel some of my anxiety wash away for the first time since I got here. There's hope for me still. I just need to figure out how to control this more so we can figure out a plan together.
