~Chapter 10~

     Rey is kneeling down on the floor with a screwdriver. D-O, the new droid that they found on the old ship, in front of her.

     "Squi-ggy wheel, I-I-I have a squiggy wheel," D-O looks up at Rey. Rey smiles at him and uses the screwdriver to tighten up the screws on the droid. She finishes and the droid rolls around a little bit.

     "Sq-Squeak eliminated. Th-Th-Thank you, ver-very kind," D-O stutters, because of his audio, and rolls to BB-8. He starts to roll around the ball droid and BB-8 watches him go around and around him. Rey stands up to watch the two droids and smiles. Finn comes behind her to watch them. Rey senses him and starts to speak.

     "Something's not right about all of this," Rey states.

     "Hm?" Finn hums, confused.

     "I know where I've seen it. The ship he was on, Ochi's ship."

     "What?"

     "The day my parents left... they were on that ship," Rey looks back at him.

     "Are you sure?" Finn questions. The door opens up behind them and Zorii and Poe pop out from the doorway.

     "There's an incoming Destroyer," Zorii warns.

     "We gotta go now. Did we get it? Babbu?" Poe looks towards the small alien who is in 3PO's head.

     "Yup! The droid is ready," Babbu takes a few wires in his head and hotwires them.

     3-PO shoots up, eyes red. "The Emperor's Wayfinder is in the imperial vault. At delta 3-6, transient 9-3-6, bearing 3-2... On a moon in the Endor system, from the Southern shore. Only this blade tells.... only this blade tells."

     When he finishes, his eyes turn off, and lays back down on the chair he sits on, powering off. Babbu looks happy and starts cheering. Everyone is disturbed seeing the droid like that.

     "The Endor system, where the last war ended?" Finn asks.

     He's interrupted by the rumbling sounds above. Everyone looks up to see the roof and tools moving a bit from the rumbling. Rey senses something again and runs up the stairs quickly. Finn runs after her.

     "Rey!" He warns. She doesn't stop and steps outside to see what's going on. A Destroyer is in the sky, parked in mid-air.

     "Ren's Destroyer," Rey states.

     "He's here?" Poe questions.

     "Here me Rey, you're the only one that can save us now..."

     "Y/N?" Rey was about to break into tears. Her best friend was alive.

     "I'm okay, and so is Chewie, we are on this ship... help us..."

     "What about her?" Finn asks, the only one that heard her.

     "She's alive, and so is Chewie! They're on Ren's ship!" Rey shouts to the others, happy.

     "What? How?!" Poe wonders, joyful to hear the news but still confused.

     "They're alive! They must've been on a different transport!" Rey happily answers. Poe starts to celebrate, shouting and jumping for joy.

     "We gotta go get them!" Finn proclaims.

     "Your girlfriend's on that sky trash?" Zorii asks Poe.

     "I guess they are!" Poe praises.

     That quickly fades to being annoyed when C3-PO shoots back up. He's talking in his normal voice now.

     "Might I introduce myself! I am C3-PO, human-cyborg relations. And you are?" 3-PO gestures to both Zorii and Poe whom he sees in front of him.

     "Okay that's gonna be a problem," Poe points to him. Babbu doesn't care.

    "Hello. I Babbu Frik."

     "Why hello!" 3-PO waves and Babbu grows happy.

.~.~.~.~.~.~.

     "3PO move your metal ass! We're almost there!" Poe commands him to move faster as Zorii leads them through the snow town and back to their ship.

     "How dare you! We only just met!" 3PO shouts, insulted. As Poe keeps following, Zorii stops him mid-way.

     "Poe!" He stops. She takes out the medallion. "This might get you on a capital ship. You have to go save the one you love, she sounds like a great girl. You can't let her go."

     "Zorii, I don't think I can take this," Poe shakes his head, flabbergasted.

     "I don't care what you think," Zorii replies and takes his hand. She places the medallion in it and then closes it tight so that he can refuse to talk back.

     "We have to go, now," Rey demands as she sees Kylo's ship edging closer to the planet. Poe glances at them, then at Zorii.

     "Come with us," Poe urges.

     "Poe," Zorii tilts her head in disapproval.

     "Can I hug you?" Poe asks, he wanted to thank her one way or another.

     "Go," Zorii laughingly says, pushing him away. She wasn't much of the affectional type. He smiles and then runs away to meet with his friends. Zorii takes one last look to make sure they're gone and then runs away.

     Poe pilots their ship and flies it away from the planet. He aims for the Destroyer, destined to find his love on the ship. He takes out a small coin compartment on the dashboard and places the medallion in it.

     "Medallion's good," Poe gestures to Rey, who is sitting next to him as the co-pilot. "Clear for entrance into hanger 12."

     "Hang on, Y/N and Chewie. We're coming," Rey whispers.

     "Whoever these friends of yours are, this is madness!"

     Poe lands the ship into the hangar they requested to come in. He opens the ramp on the ship as two stormtroopers walk up to them.

     "Credentials and manifest-" Rey, Poe, and Finn have blasters in hand, shooting them down. Around them are more troopers who start aiming at them. Rey and Poe shoot them down and then it gets quiet.

     "You three, stay there," Rey points to the droids.

     "Happily," 3PO replies.

     "Which way?" Poe asks Finn, still having his blaster out in case more troopers came.

     "Uh, no idea. Follow me," Finn admits and runs to a nearby entrance. Rey and Poe follow.
