They had been enemies. Once at least. But now as Rey stood chained along with the rest of her friends in front of the Sith court she knew they weren't anymore. The two stars, Her and Ben. That was the only thing that mattered right now.

The two stars two souls reborn again and again crisscrossing to either side. One life The girl would be dark and the boy would be light. The next life they were switched the boy dark and the girl light, again and again. The two stars after many lives decided that their fighting was pointless and decided that in the next life they would be the same. They would not be enemies. And so when the two stars would finally become one in the sky the two stars would conjoin. And all would know once the two brightest stars in the sky joined one side would win. Dark or light would win. The real war would begin. The last war for at that time the two brightest stars in the sky aren't two stars anymore. For when they are one. A side will finally win. And then in that life the two stars would die and pass on the the next world. Not to be reborn again in fighting stance.

Rey knew this. she knew the legend. She knew she was one of the stars. Ben was the other. This was that life that they would not be reborn. She already knew what side would win. Her and Ben were both on the light side now, the Resistance would win.

"How would you like if I killed all of you one by one so Rey here could watch every last one of you die and then by then maybe she will have enough anger to turn to be consumed by the darkness" The Emperor states as calmly as ever. The room is dark hints of light here and there but Whenever Rey turns she can see her friends. Thinking of all she's been through the past year with them makes her smile. General Leia and Han, almost like the parents she never had. Poe, the man who always said he was a better pilot, she knew the truth. Finn, storm trooper defector to the resistance loyal and protective over her like a brother. And Ashly Chewie, the Wookie who had carried her when she was unconscious after the battle of Starkiller base. Maz was right you'd never have a deeper sleep then curled up in a Wookiee's lap.

It seemed the emperor wanted to draw out this torture for them. He stood telling them all they've done wrong. Not that that was bad. He just liked probing them with his force powers. They were waiting for him to kill them. Rey knew it was useless fighting with the force, he was stronger and could kill them all. And if she fought against him he would make her watch the death of her friends. She still had that small spark of hope in her that Ben would come a save them.

She had always held on to the notion that she was independent and didn't need any man to help her like she was a damsel in distress. But on Jakku that was wiser to hold to. Here in front of the Sith Lord it was harder because when she was on Jakku she didn't have to fight against a master of the force to survive. There in Jakku all she needed to survive was enough scavenged items to trade for a days meal.

And now breaking her promise to herself that she would never be a damsel in distress she wished Ben was here to break those handcuffs off her wrist and give her a fighting chance against the emperor. But it seemed Kylo Ren was dead. Ben Solo lived she knew that and she still let that spark of hope burn. She had finally brought him back to the light, where he belonged. But he wasn't there, the man she loved wasn't with her. She has tried to reach out in the force bond and to no avail she found nothing. He could be dead she knew that much. She'd rather not think about it. She stood chained in front if there emperor now, Leia, Han, Poe, Finn and Chewie chained in a line behind her. There was no Ben coming and she knew that.

Palpatine steps closer to the small female with three buns

"And here you are venerable in front of me, you know I first felt your force powers awaken a year ago today. I had told Snoke to pass on the message to Kylo that his equal in the light would rise as he rose in the dark" Palpatine said. Rey stood still. Waiting for the man that would never come. But still she rebuffed.

"Yes we are equals... but not on opposite sides of the force he is light. Born from it, stays light. You can't change that." Rey states hissing at the humanoid creature with its maimed face. But still

"How sweet, girly thinks he's light... well you won't be so sure as he kill you" Palpatine hisses right back at her.

"I know what can defeat you... I know the legend... the two stars" Rey says and Palpatine turns on her.

"AND SO DO I AND FROM WHAT I CAN TELL THOSE TWO STARS IN THE SKY ARE FAR FROM COLLIDING" Palpatine yells spit flying. As far as Palpatine knows he's right but as far as Rey knows he's wrong. And Rey knows. She felt it in the force. Palpatine laughs hard, not a genuine laugh but at the same time the laugh was very genuine, very real, very evil. He motions towered a shadow of a man standing in the darkness.

"Master Ren why don't you come show our little Rey here that your not part here little make believe game of light" Palpatine states calmly. And then there he is the man Rey knows is light, adorned in his trademark black robes and his red lightsaber ignighted in his black gloved hand. Rey smiles and Ben doesn't return her smile. And as he steps up close to her with his red lightsaber that little shred of hope she still clung to fled nowhere to be found. He was going to kill her it seemed.

Palpatine knew that if what Rey was saying was the truth and if those stars collided, he would die. For one time he was not immortal he was stabbed with a light saber. It went through his heart and he was only saved by a piece of the dark star at the time. They had replaced his heart with a price of the dark stars core. If the stars collided. Dark with the light he would die for he could not live with light.

He stood in front of her is tall frame towering over her slight one. The line of Rebels behind them thought that it was only a matter of time before the flaming red blade of Kylo Ren's lightsaber would pierce through Rey's body, killing her. It didn't happen.

"Master Ren why don't we show Rey here that your not as reformed as she believes... Kill her" Palpatine spits sounding out beach syllable of 'Kill her' so everyone could hear him.

Ben stands in front of Rey holding his lightsaber. He turns it off causing Palpatine much confusion.

"I SAID... KILL HER!" The emperor yells standing from his black stone throne. But he wouldn't kill her. She looked up at his face, that scar she had given him gleaming in the light. There it was again, that hope. Maybe it has always been there, never left.

"We were never really enemies were we" Ben asks looking down at here with his deep brown eyes. Rey smiles. She never s been in love before but now that she is she's not going to lose him. Palpatine watch's in horror. The stars over head collide as the lips of the two lovers do. It's a softness she has never felt before. A explosion of a feeling she never knew was real. And yet here she is, this is very real. Their lips part and their eyes meet. His deep brown eyes search her honey colored ones, green in a certain light.

"I love you" she says. He lifts his hand to her cheek pushing back the strait strands of hair that had fallen in her face.

"I know" Ben says holding her close to his chest. the line of rebels behind the two stare, mixed emotions coming and going. The scene could raise anyone's eyebrow, Sith, Jedi, Resistance or First Order. Emperor Palpatine is no longer there, for when the two stars collided he had evaporated, light invading his soul. Palpatine evaporated as all force users do when they die leaving his robe behind him. As the first orders ships fell no longer controlled under Palpatine force the resistance won. The wars was over. The two stars wee not separate anymore, they were one. With a wave of Reys hand the chains on Poe, Finn, Leila, Han and Chewie's wrists shatter leaving them rubbing there sores left by the lights cuffs. Ben turns to his father first. The two men stand in silence eyeing each other. Then soon enough their both in each other's arms crying.

"I missed you kid" Han says his arms around his son.

"I'm so sorry dad, I don't deserve your forgiveness" Ben says tears streaming down his face. Poe and BB-8 reunite, the orange and white droid beeping happily. Rey watch's as the family reunites, forgiven. Once all is over and everyone is back on the Millennium Falcon do Ben and Rey speak again. They sit on a cot next to the hologram game table.

"I love you too" Ben says to Rey keeping his eye on her the whole time relishing in her beauty. The way her eyes flit to his half lidded and how the single strand of hair fell over her shoulder. Rey smiles him mischievously and repeats the same words she had been told Han and Leia had once exchanged.

"I know" Rey says once again softly placing her lips on his. This was her Ben. The only person she ever loved. They parted to see Han and Leia standing there with smug expressions on their faces. Ben blushed and looked down embarrassed.

"I said that once, didn't I princess" Han says to his wife wrapping a arm around her shoulders. Leia grimaces.

"I told you not to call me princess, scruffy" Leia says banters at her husband. He leans down at gives her a peck on the lips. Ben blushes even harder.

"I see that kid" Han scolds his son for blushing at his parents kiss.

"Well you and Rey were practically making out over there so" Finn jokes earning a glare from Ben. Leia gets a glint in her eye.

"Oh you watch out Ben, first its kissing and next she's pregnant"Leia teases. ben suits upright clearly uncomfortable the way this conversation is going. Ben stands his hair as curly as ever.

"I'm going to try reconcile with Chewie" Ben says. He slowly walks away leaving Rey in a uncomfortable silence. Thankfully Poe's there to speak up, he did have a talent at breaking long uncomfortable silences.

"Rey stay in my good graces and never go telling me that he can fly better then me... because he cant" Poe states waving his hands mater of factly. Rey smiles at him.

"Deal Poe... Deal" She replies.
