《AWAKEN》7

UNDER FIRE was exactly what Amara had expected to happen. The four of them were taking cover from trooper blasts. Finn and Han were firing their blasters at Stormtroopers, some getting hit and others using cover to protect themselves. Chewie pulls some explosives out of the duffel and blasts doors nearby. Amara grits her teeth, she steps into view and extends her hand forward, she send the remaining troopers back and hitting the wall.
Amara turns to them, "Come on," She says, "We can't be wasting time!"
Amara begins to head in the direction they were going before, Chewie goes after her and then Finn. Han groans.
"She is too much like her mother," Han says.
Han goes after them.
When Han goes around the corner they are met with more fire power. Amara held her blaster and fired from her cover. She glanced at Finn and noticed the saber on his belt, Amara ignites the lightsaber and stands in the line of fire, she used the blade to doge the blasts.
Finn turns to Han, "We have to find Rey-!"
Han turns to Finn, "We can only go as fast as we can right now." He says, "See if you haven't noticed but we have troopers up our asses."
"I know, I know." Finn says.
Han glanced at his daughter to Finn, "You two go ahead," He says, "We'll cover you."
"Solo?" Finn asks.
Han looks at Finn, "You want to find Rey, right?"
Finn nods.
"So we'll do it," He says, "You up for it?"
Amara caught a glimpse after taking down the final trooper of something to her left. Amara walked over and noticed someone climbing out from the inside of the wall. Carefully that person was climbing back to the main level.
"Uh, dad?" Amara says.
Han turns to her and saw where she pointed. Han seemed shocked, but Finn hadn't noticed. He was growing annoyed that no one was listening to him.
"What are you doing?" Finn asks, "I'm trying to come up with a plan and you are completely ignoring me-,"
"Finn," Amara says, "Look."
Finn looks at the direction Amara says. He sees her. Rey.
"Come on," Finn says, "We gotta get to her."
Amara turns of the saber and hands it back to Finn. Finn sprints off in the direction without wasting another second, Amara looks at her dad.
"I find her and get no thank you," Amara says, "These trooper were not taught manners."
Han shakes his head at her attempt of humor. And with that said Han, Amara, and Chewie followed after Finn in the direction of where Rey was going to. She was heading to corridor 6, which was close to them. Real close.
{THE FORCE AWAKENS}
REY CLIMBS up to the corridor, vigilant. She hears a sound. She swoops her rifle and points it at her enemy, or at least what she thought was her enemy. Instead, standing there was no enemy. Standing there was Finn, Han, Chewie, and a girl that Rey didn't know. Although, the girl did look like Han, and also remained her of someone else. Rey was stunned. She couldn't believe it. Rey wanted to hug Finn and she could tell her wanted to do the same thing.
"Are you alright?" Han asks.
Rey looks at him, "Yeah."
Han nods, "Good."
Finn looks at Rey, "What happened?" He asks all worried, "Did- Did he hurt you?"
"Finn," Rey says, "What are you doing here?"

Finn looks at her with a smile, "We came back for you."
She was speechless. Amara could see something in Rey's eyes. She saw that Rey did not expect a recuse, she expected to be abandoned. Chewie growls as his way of saying something, which got Rey to nearly tear up.
Finn looks confused, "What did he say?" He asks.
Rey turns to her friend, "That this was your idea." She says.
Finn awkwardly smiles, it was his nature. And then Rey pulls him in for a hug. There were some tears seeping out of her eyes, but she tried not to cry a lot. This was a lot for her and very surprising.
"Thank you," Rey says.
"How did you get away?" Finn asks.
Rey shrugs in the hug, "I can't explain it," She says, "And you wouldn't believe it."
Finn and Rey pull from the embrace. Han, who was looking out for more troopers, steps over. He looks at the young adults, who have been through so much.
"Escape now," Han says, "Hug later."
Rey nods.
The small group then makes their way into one of the transport elevators. The doors shut behind, and Rey kept eyes on her. It was Amara looking at her.
"Oh sorry," Amara says, "I didn't mean to stare."
Rey looks at her, "Who are you?" She asks.
Amara gives a small smile, "Amara Solo," She says.
"Solo?" Rey's eyes drift to Han.
Han kept his gaze forward, ignoring Rey's stare at him. Rey's gaze moved back to Amara. She gives Rey a small smile.
"Ye- Yeah," Amara says, "He's my dad and General Organa is my mom."
Rey seemed impressed, "Oh so you are definitely Resistance,"
Amara nods, "Definitely."
"I'm Rey," Rey says.
Amara nods with a smile, "I know."
The elevator comes to a jolting halt. The doors fly open, revealing the outside of the base. A blast of cold air hits the group as they step onto the snow covered surface of the plant.
Overhead, the X-Wings roar across the sky, doing their best to dodge incoming fire from both the TIE fighters and First Order missiles in the light of the dying sun. All of them stood in the cold and watched in horror as one of their X-Wings gets caught by a torpedo from the cannons on the group and goes spiraling down to the ground in flames.
Amara gasped.
"Poe," Her voice sounded shaky.
Han glanced at his daughter.
Amara shakes her head as tears were threatening to come down her face. Their mission was complete. They shut down the shields and found Rey, it was time for them to leave, but it felt wrong to abandoned the fight.
Amara turns to her father, "Dad," She says.
Han frowns and looks back at the dogfights in the sky, "They're in trouble," His mouth curling downwards, "We can't leave like this. My friend's got a bag full of explosives. Let's use them."
They all nod.
Han turns to Amara, "Why don't you go with-,"
Amara shakes her head, "Don't even think about it," Amara says.
Han glanced at Chewie, "Yeah, she's just like her mother."
{THE FORCE AWAKENS}
THEY HAD split up into two teams. Amara stayed with her father and Chewie, she didn't want to be apart. Rey and Finn had stolen a snowspeeder on the ground and took off heading to a conjunction station a few miles away. Chewie, Han, and Amara made their way back to the weapon's center, however, they trio wouldn't be able to enter until the security system was taken offline. Han glanced at Amara as he waited for the access inside. Amara looked at the sky with worry, she worried for Poe.

"So is this a crush or what?" Han asks.
Amara snaps at her dad, "What?"
Han gives her a look, "Poe Dameron," He says, "Is this a crush or what?"
Amara frowns, "Dad, this isn't the time."
Han gives her a grin, "I think this is a perfect time," He says, "After all we are waiting for the kids to get in here."
Amara kept the frown and looks at the sky, "I don't what it is," She says, "I sensed him on Jakku and on the Stardestroyed. I felt so much from a single connection with him than I ever had prior."
Han stares at his daughter. He never fully understood the Force and how it worked, and seeing it in his daughter's eyes, she was just as confused about it.
"I don't know if it's the Force or something else completely," Amara glanced at her dad, "But thinking of him dead, it hurts me. It hurts me a lot."
Han gives her a small smile and rest his hand on her shoulder, "Call it whatever you want, kid. But you need to figure out what it is."
Amara nods, "Okay, dad." She faintly smiles.
Just then at the Oscillator structure, the hatch opens. Chewie, Han, and Amara head inside. Chewie steps down first, his weapon pointed at possible enemy.
Chewie growls.
"That girl really knows her stuff," Han says.
Han and Chewie divide the explosives, Amara stayed with her father because he couldn't carry all of his in his hands, whereas Chewie had larger hands.
Han looks at Chewie and Amara, "We'll set the charges at every other column." He whispers.
Chewie makes a growl as a reply. Amara glanced a Chewie and seemed to agree with Chewie, and then turns to her dad.
Han looks around, "You're right." Han says, "That's a better idea."
Han checks his detonator.
"You take the top," Han says, "You too, Amara."
"Dad," Amara says.
Han looks at his daughter, "I'll go down below." He says, "Detonator."
Amara doesn't like separating from her dad. Han turns to look at his daughter with a small smile.
"We'll meet back here." Han says.
{THE FORCE AWAKENS}
HAN FINISHES placing an explosive, checking he's all clear and hurries down to the next level. He glanced over noticing Chewie and Amara climbing up a level, Han had decided Amara would be safer with Chewie than with him if worst came to worst.
Kylo Ren walks into the Oscillator. Amara noticed it. She saw the troopers being ordered to find the Resistance in their base. They rush past Kylo Ren. Kylo Ren slowly heads down. Amara felt Chewie grab her, she almost yelped from pure surprise but felt his fuzzy hand over her mouth. He pulls her and him into a dark area behind some of the columns, that hopefully would go unnoticed by the troopers.
As Han finishes setting a charge and is about to move on, he hears something. Han conceals himself behind a wide vertical support. He peaks around the edge and his expression changes. There he stood, Kylo Ren. Kylo Ren appears to stop at the railing, looking down into the filter. Han looks at his own son with a tortured storm of feelings. Then, Kylo Ren turns his attention. Kylo Ren's attention was directly toward where Han was hiding. Han could only assume his son could sense his presence as Kylo Ren moved closer.
However, Kylo Ren halts. His head turns to another direction in the room. Han could only assume again that his son was sensing his sister, Amara. Kylo Ren moved to where Han was hiding, but Han was nowhere to be seen. From his hiding place in a narrow, power chamber in the wall, Han watches his son pass only a few feet in front of him. Han shifts his position in the tight compartment, so he can watch his son's progress.
Kylo Ren turns onto a flat bridge that bisects the open space, unaware of his father, Kylo Ren walks purposefully across to the other side. Han watches his son walk off. Han knew he could take this opportunity to escape, but his head echoed with Leia's words. Save Ben. Bring him home. He looked up to where Chewie was hiding with his daughter and then to his son. His decision was made and he moves out, to the edge of the catwalk.
"Ben-!" Han calls out.
Kylo Ren stops. The name echoes. Kylo Ren turns. It was now apparent that Amara's presence was known, she stood away from Chewie, as if she had broken free but still above. Kylo Ren looks at his sister and then to his father. His father approaching him on the bridge.
"Han Solo," Kylo Ren says, "I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
At this moment, Rey and Finn make their way into the space, opening a hatch that allows a beam of precious sunlight to stream down like a spotlight on Han and his son. Finn and Rey get to a railing and look down. They see what is happening, they hear what is happening.
"Take off that mask," Han says, "You don't need it."
"What do you think you'll see if I do?" Kylo Ren asks.
Han moves toward Kylo Ren, "The face of my son." He says.
Kylo Ren takes off his mask. Han is jolted, seeing the face of his son for the first time in so many years. Kylo Ren's eyes drift from Han to Amara, she held onto the railing. Tears in her eyes as she looked below.
"Your son is gone." Kylo Ren says, "He was weak and foolish, like his father. So I destroyed him."
Han shakes his head, "That's what Snoke wants you to believe but it's not true. My son is alive."
Amara feels Chewie, he stands behind her. She glanced at him before her eyes darting back to her father and brother below.
"No!" Kylo Ren flares, "The Supreme Leader is wise."
Han moves closer more stern, "Snoke is using you for your power. When he gets what he wants, he'll crush you- you know it's true."
Kylo Ren hesitates, it's like he wants to believe Han but also a part of him that doesn't want to. As Amara stood above, she looks at her brother's eyes. She saw the battle fighting within them. Something was bothering him.
Kylo Ren looks at Amara, "It's too late." He says.
Han shakes his head, "No it's not. Leave here with me. Come home. We miss you." Han says, "Your mother, your sister, and I all miss you."
Amara gasped and a single tear slid down her cheek. She felt the pain in Kylo Ren. She saw it. He truly looked conflicted. Tears flood the man's stoic eyes.
"I'm being torn apart," Kylo Ren says, "I want to be free of this pain."
Han takes one step forward, toward his son, but then he stops himself. Kylo Ren's eyes stay on Amara for a second before returning to his father.
"I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it. Will you help me?" Kylo Ren asks his father.
Han hears his son's voice again. The pain. The vulnerability. Han would do anything for his children. He would kill for his children. Han takes another step, now he was much closer to his son.
"Yes," Han says, "Anything."
Kylo Ren unholsters his lightsaber and slowly extends it to Han, within a foot of Han's chest. Han almost cannot believe it, the moment seemed to last forward. And just then, the last beam of sunlight streaming through the open hatch vanishes. Han actually smiles and reaches out for the dark weapon, but with the light gone, Kylo Ren's eyes are filled with darkness.
Amara noticed it first, "Dad-!" Amara screamed.
But it was too late, Kylo Ren ignites the lightsaber. The fiery blade shoots out, right through Han's chest and back.
"Thank you," Kylo Ren says.
Above there was a scream from Rey and Finn held her to comfort her. Amara held onto the railing tightly, white knuckling it. Han's last moments were looking at his son's face. Han's knees buckle, the blades tilts down with him, until Kylo Ren extinguishes it and Han holds onto the catwalk, as his life slips away. Finally Han Solo falls back off the catwalk into the dept of the structure.
Amara and Kylo Ren made eye contact. Tear sliding down her face but she sees his shocked expression, he seemed shocked that he had actually done this wicked deed. Chewie yells in agony, firing his blaster at Kylo Ren and even hitting him. Kylo Ren was hit on the side, and collapses slightly. He held onto the railing for support.
Amara then screams.
"No-!" Amara screams.
Stormtroopers were coming near her and she had let go of the railing, her hands on her head. The scream seemed to send the troopers back from a powerful Force. Amara looks at Kylo Ren one last time, before her eyes flutter and she collapses onto the ground. Chewie growls and grabs the girl in his arms. As more troopers came by, he was firing his blasters at them. He started setting off the explosives, and used this as his way of getting himself and Amara to safety.
{THE FORCE AWAKENS}
THEY RAN into a bare-tree snowy forest. Finn led the way, claiming the Falcon was up ahead. Finn and Rey, overcome with so much emotion, race through the snowy forest, that is until Finn slows down and stops. Rey stops as well. Both of them out of breathe, they look at each other. They both know, they cannot run. Kylo Ren moves through the trees until he stops. He takes out his saber and ignites it. Standing thirty feet away, facing him were Finn and Rey. Finn held Luke Skywalker's lightsaber and Rey held a trooper's blaster.
"We're not done yet," Kylo Ren says.
Rey cries, "You're a monster!"
"It's just us now," Kylo Ren says, "Han Solo can't save you now."
After a beat, Rey moves forward with the blaster. She aims it, but Kylo Ren raises a hand. Rey struggles under his Force power, she cannot fire. He's strains too, mostly due to the wound he was inflicted because of Chewie. Kylo Ren gestures powerfully, Rey's blaster flies out of her hands, another gesture and Rey flies back and slams into a tree thirty feet away. She drops.
"Rey!" Finn yells, "Rey!"
Finn turns to her, afraid and concerned. But the sound of Kylo Ren's lightsaber moving make Finn turn back to Kylo Ren.
"Traitor!" Kylo Ren yells.
In reply, Finn turns on Luke's lightsaber. Upon seeing the weapon, Kylo Ren looks shocked. He looks from the saber to Finn.
"That lightsaber," Kylo Ren says, "It belongs to me!"
Finn smirks, "Come get it," He says.
Despite being afraid, Finn raises the blade in welcome. Kylo Ren charges at him, Kylo Ren lunges but Finn deflects the spark-splitting blade. Kylo Ren turns, attacks, cuts, but surprisingly Flinn blocks counter-attacks. Rey recovers. Her eyes focus on the two men fighting through the trees. Kylo Ren is hampered by his wound, and yet he attacks with primal savagery, Finn blocks, turning defensive moves into offensive ones.
Finn managed to get a hit on Kylo Ren. The lightsaber grazing Kylo Ren's arm. Kylo Ren moves back, wounded, but even more enraged than weakened. Kylo Ren charges again, their weapons pound, sparks fly, their blades lock, the men are close, lit by the power crashing sabers. Kylo Ren pushes Finn back, attacks with pure ferocity, Finn is stunned, unprepared for this fierceness.
Rey sees this.
Kylo Ren unleashes a merciless series of blows, pushing Finn further and further back until he loses balance. That is when Kylo Ren strikes, he lands a blow to Finn's torso. Luke's lightsaber flies from Finn's hand, thrown twenty feet away. Finn is now on the ground, unconscious.
Kylo Ren turns off his lightsaber and reaches for Luke's lightsaber. The saber vibrates in the snow, Kylo Ren gestures, and the saber flies out of the snow. Flying toward Kylo Ren, only to pass him and landing in Rey's hand. Both looked shocked. But nevertheless, she ignites the saber. For the first time, her eyes blazing. Kylo Ren ignites his saber, and it was Rey who charges now. Kylo Ren immediately on the defensive. They battle powerfully, he is clearly rocked by her raw innate skill.
