Chapter Two: Grandmaster Luke

Poe Dameron's POV

---

I bent down to BB-8 congratulating him on a successful mission. BB-8 beep to me, grabbing my attention.

"Well done, pal. "Finn naked leaking bag"? What? Did you fry a chip?" I asked. He moved his head to the entrance of the haner to where Finn was walking around in confusion in a leaking medical bag. I quickly ran up to him, grabbing his attention. "Finn! Hey, buddy. It's so good to see you. What? Let's uh... We need to get you dressed. Come on. You must have a thousand questions."

"Where is Rey?"

Rey's POV

After a long tense moment, he grabbed the lightsabre and...he tossed it. What was that? I looked at him in confusion as he walked past me with haste. "Master Skywalker?" I asked as he walked into a hut and shut the metal door. I lightly tapped on it was my staff. No answer. "Master Skywalker? I'm from the Resistance. Your sister Leia sent me. We need your help. Hello?"

I quickly ran back to the Falcon to grab Chewie and get his help. He followed me to the hut and effectively knocked down the door. Roaring and Luke when he entered followed by me. Luke turned to us in surprise.

"Go away. Chewie, what are you doing here?"

"He said you're coming back with us." I translated.

"How did you find me?"

"Long story we'll tell you in the Falcon." I replied.

"Falcon? Wait. Where is Han?"

Bini Filters's POV

"Tied to a string, indeed, General Hux. Well done. The Resistance will soon be in our grasp." Supreme Leader squashed head Snoke. Seriously how does anyone take him seriously? His face is just...omg...pull it together. Ben and I walked into the throne room as Snoke ended a call with Hux on another ship. One we just came from.

"Thank you, Supreme Leader." Hux replied and disappeared with his hologram. Snoke turned his attention to Ben as he moved past me closer to Snoke but still a fair distance away.

"You wonder why I keep a rabid cur in a such a place of power? " Snoke said to Ben, reading his mind it appears. "The cur's weakness, properly manipulated... Can be a sharp tool. How's your wound?"

"It's nothing."

"Hmm. The mighty Kylo Ren. When I found you... I saw what all masters live to see. Raw, untamed power. And beyond that, something truly special. The potential of your bloodline. A new Vader. Now I fear... I was mistaken."

Oh, damn. Ben looked up at Snoke with his mask still on.

Kylo Ren looks up at Snoke.

"I've given everything I have to you. To the dark side." Ben insisted.

"Take that ridiculous thing off."

Ben hesitantly removed his mask, reveal the massive scare across his face and a broken expression.

"Yes, there it is. You have too much of your father's heart in you, young Solo."

"I killed Han Solo. When the moment came I didn't hesitate-"

"And look at you, the deed split your spirit to the bone. You were unbalanced... Bested by a girl who had never held a lightsaber! You failed!" In an angry state, Ben got up. Snoke shoots lightning at him. Causing him to fall back to the ground hard. "Skywalker lives. The seed of the Jedi Order lives. As long as it does, hope lives in the galaxy. I thought you would be the one to snuff it out. Alas, you're no Vader. You're just a child in a mask. Get out."

I didn't dare say a word as we reentered the elevator. He let out a breathe and looked down at his mask. I stepped away from him, knowing he was about to lose it. He yanked his mask forward and proceeded to bang it against the elevator wall. I flinched and tried to pretend it wasn't happening. he dropped what was now a smashed helmet to the floor. Breathing deeply.

"Have you bled the crystal?" He asked with rage. I gulped and nodded. Pulling out the crystal from my satchel. Showing him the new red crystal. "Good. You will find the pieces you need in your new quarters. Stormtroopers will escort you there. You will as well have a new uniform."

The door opened to reveal two officers.

"Prepare my ship." He ordered as he marched down the corridor. The officers looked at each other in surprise than back to me. I shrugged and joined the stormtroopers waiting for me. Guiding me to quarters were BB-3 was probably waiting for me.

Rey's POV

"There is no light left in Kylo Ren. He's only getting stronger. The First Order will control all the major systems within weeks. We need your help. We need the Jedi Order back. We need Luke Skywalker." I explained as we crossed a terrain.

"You don't need Luke Skywalker." Luke replied.

"Did you hear a word I just said?" I barked.

"You think what? I'm gonna walk out with a laser sword and face down the whole First Order? What did you think was going to happen here? You think that I came to the most unfindable place in the galaxy for no reason at all? Go away." He barked at me.

"I'm not leaving without you!" I yelled. I followed him as he went on with his day. Finally, The island reached twilight as I trudged up to him.

"You are wasting your time." I finally said. I stopped and watched him walk off. I chose to explore the island and wandered into a foggy area where there was a large tree-like shape structure where there were hidden books inside. I have been here before.

"Who are you?" Luke demanded behind me as I entered the structure.

"I know this place." I told him softly.

"Built a thousand generations ago... to keep these. The original Jedi texts. Just like me, they're the last of the Jedi religion. You've seen this place. You've seen this island."

"Only in dreams.' I explained.

"Who are you?"

"The Resistance sent me."

"They sent you? What is special about you? Where are you from?"

"Nowhere."

"No ones from nowhere."

"Jakku."

"All right, that is pretty much nowhere." He agreed. "Why are you here, Rey, from nowhere?"

"The Resistance sent me. We need your help. The First Order has become unstoppable."

"Why are you here?"

"Something inside me has always been there Then now it's awake. And I'm afraid. I do not know what it is... or what to do with it. And I need help." I explained.

"You need a teacher." He corrected. "I can't teach you."

"Why not? I've seen your daily routine. You're not busy."

"I will never train another generation of Jedi. I came to this island to die. It's time for the Jedi to end."

"Why? Leia sent me here with hope. If she was wrong, she deserves to know why. We all do." I argued.

Leia's POV

I slapped Poe on the bridge. He looked back at me in surprise and confusion.

"You're demoted." I snapped.

"What? Wait! We took down a dreadnought."

"At what cost?" I asked.

"If you start an attack, you follow through." He argued.

"Poe, get your head out of your cockpit." I ordered. "There are things you can not solve... By jumping into an X-wing and blowing something up! I need you to learn that."

"There were heroes on that mission."

"Dead heroes, No leaders."

"We're really nowhere. How's Rey going to find us now? A cloaked binary beacon?" Finn commented as Poe stepped away from me. I showed them my tracking signal on my finger with a smile.

"To light her way home."

"Alright, Well, until she comes back, what's the plan?" Finn asked.

"We need to find a new base."

"One with enough power to get a distress signal to our allies. scattered in the Outer Rim." Larma added.

"Proximity alert!" Ackbar yelled as first order ship appeared behind us and alarms started going off.

"They found us."

"That's impossible. It's Snoke's ship. You've gotta be kidding me. Can we jump to lightspeed?" Poe asked as a giant black ship, much larger than the other star destroyers dropped out of lightspeed on top of the other ships.

"We have enough fuel for just one jump."

"Do it. We have to get out of here."

"Wait. They tracked us through lightspeed." I realized.

"That's impossible," Finn commented.

"Yes. And they've done it."

"So if we jump to lightspeed... they'll just find us again, and we'll be out of fuel. They've got us."

"Not yet, they don't. Permission to jump in an X-wing and blow something up?"

"Permission granted. Admiral, spin us around!" I barked.

"Reverse. Rotate the shields!"

"To your stations! Move, move, move!"

Poe ran out of the room. I paced the bridge for a few moments. Suddenly the bridge shook as explosions hit somewhere in the ship. The hanger.

"We need to get outta range of those Star Destroyers." Poe's voice cut over the intercom.

"We need to what?" Ackbar asked across the bridge.

"Full engines ahead. Get out of range of the Star Destroyers and the fighters will fall back."

"All craft, full engines! Concentrate rear shields."

Suddenly, a familiar large TIE fighter, followed by two more went past the bridge. Ben.

I felt the force connecting us. He was going to fire. He hesitated. Stopped. The other two blasted instead. Hitting his directly. I closed my eyes as the bridge exploded around me, ripping me out into space.

General Hux's POV

"Ren, the Resistance have pulled out of reach. We can't cover you at this distance. Return to the fleet." I ordered on the intercom, seeing the two TIE fighters heading back towards us. I turned to Peavey for some answers. "What is the point of all this if we can't blow up three tiny cruisers?"

"They are faster and lighter, sir. They can't lose us but they can keep at a range where our cannons are not effective against their shields." He explained. I nodded and turned back to the screen.

"Well, keep up the barrage. Let's at least remind them that we're still here."

"Very good sir."

"They won't last long burning fuel like this. It's just a matter of time."

Leia's POV

I used the force to drag me back into the ship where Finn, Poe and a few others where waiting for me. I finally let out a shaky breathe as I entered the ship again. I was immediately taken into medical care and passed out.

"Move! Outta the way, everybody! Make way! Make room!"

"Her vital signs are weak, but she is fighting-"
