"Who's in the shadows?
Who's ready to play?
Are we hunters?
Or are we prey?
There's no surrender and there's no escape
Are we hunters?
Or are we prey?
This is a wild game of survival"

C-3PO takes the data device from BB-8 and inserts it into a base computer. The projected map appears in hologram. Leia enters, studying it, dispirited. Legacy stood beside Poe mesmerized by the hologram, Poe turned toward the girl whom he loved watching as her eyes filled with tears already knowing the truth about the map
"General, I regret to inform you, but this map recovered from bee bee eight is only partially complete. and even worse, it matches no charted system on record. We simply do not have enough information to locate master Luke." C-3PO informed. Poe continued to watch Legacy, the hurt in her eyes growing more as tears began to fall from her eyes
"No" Legacy whispered. It felt as though someone ripped her heart out of her chest, stomped on it and placed it back in its rightful place. She knew the map was only half complete but hearing the words again hurt a lot more then the first time. Poe grabbed the smaller girl pulling her in a hug as she choked back sobs
"I can't believe I was so foolish to think that I could just find Luke and bring him home." Leia said in disbelief
"Leia." Han said.
"don't do that."
"Do what?" Han asked as he followed Leia who had walked off. Poe released the girl from the hug holding her shoulders and looking into her green eyes.
"Are you okay?" He asked all though he already new her answer. Legacy looked down at the ground as more tears welled up in her eyes.
"No" she whispered as she looked back at Poe
"my father he hasn't always been there for me, but he's still my father and I still love him. I just wish he was around more. Him and my mother left when I was pretty young and I always hopped they would return. After what had happened with Ben I prayed they would come back. Instead Leia had to inform me of my mothers death my father.... he ran off." Legacy broke eye contact with Poe as more tears fell from her eyes.
"He wasn't there to hold me when I would wake up from the nightmares! He wasn't there when I stopped eating because I didn't care I just wanted my mother back! he wasn't there when I begged my uncle to kill me so I could be with her again! He wasn't there then, I just hopped he could be here now" Poe grabbed the girl in a hug once more his heart broke for the girl he loved. He had known she had a rough childhood before she had met him, he just didn't known why or even how rough it actually was. It was something Legacy had never been able to bring herself to tell.
"He might not have been there for you and he might not be here for you now but I will always be by your side. I'm never going to leave you. I love you Legacy Skywalker and nothing is ever going to change that" Poe's hands rested against Legacy's cheeks wiping the remaining tears on the girls face. Poe leaned toward the shorter girl planting a small but passionate kiss to her soft lips.
