Chapter 6

*(y/n)'s POV*

After awhile of running around and BB-8 playfully chasing after me, I fell on the grass on my back while laughing and panting at the same time. BB-8 rolled next to me and looked down at me, while chirping at the same time as if he was laughing along with me. "Wow. That was fun, BB-8. I definitely got my exercise done for today." I said, as I sat up and looked down at my watch, which was ten minutes past five o'clock in the evening. "Let's head back inside, BB-8." I said, and, then, I stood up and walked towards my apartment, with BB-8 following behind me. I picked up the soccer ball and the volleyball and my drawing supplies before we headed back to my apartment.

*Rey's POV*

Finn, Poe, and I watched BB-8 following the girl towards the stairs as I was coming up with a plan to retrieve him without having a confrontation with the girl, even though she didn't appear to be a threat. "So, how are we gonna get BB-8 now?" Finn asked, as we watched the girl carrying BB-8 up the stairs. "We can just easily call him over here and get out of this strange place." Poe said. "No. We can't give ourselves away if we're present in front of the girl. I suggest that we get BB-8 once the girl is out of sight from him. I could sense her presence inside her home." I said, while I watched the girl reached the top of the stairs. I concentrated on the location of where she lived so we would know where we could find BB-8.

"So we'll retrieve him—" Poe was about to ask, but I finished for him. "Once I could sense that she is out of sight from BB-8." I spoke, right as soon as I noticed the girl opening a door and walking inside, with BB-8 following inside with her, which indicated the exact location of where her home was. "That's where she lives." I pointed out. "How long will it be until we can get BB-8, Rey?" Finn asked. "When the time is right, Finn." I answered.

*Kylo's POV*

General Hux and I kept watching the girl with the BB Unit droid until she got up from the ground and started leaving, with the droid following her. I looked where Rey and the others were hiding to see if they were gonna make a move. But they stood their grounds, while they watched the girl and the droid.

"So, what do you suggest we do now, Ren? Confront the scavenger and the others while they're distracted?" General Hux asked. "No, General Hux. We'll follow Rey and the others when they head up those stairs and go inside where that girl lives when they're getting their droid. That's where we will confront them." I explained. He nodded, in response, and said, stiffly, "Well thought out."

"Do you have your weapon ready?" I asked. General Hux took out his blaster, the same one that he tried to use to try to kill me in Snoke's Throne Room, from his holster and presented it to me. "I always come prepared, Supreme Leader." He stated. "Good, General. Because you're going to need it when we pay Rey and the other two a little visit." I said, as I placed my hand on the hilt of my lightsaber.

*(y/n)'s POV*

After BB-8 and I walked inside my apartment, I set down the soccer ball, the volleyball, and my drawing supplies on the couch. I looked down at my clothes and noticed some grass stains and dirt on them. There was even some stains on my arms, hands, and legs. But it didn't bother me because I had a good time playing with BB-8 and I was happy to see him have a fun time. Although, I have to admit; I like to be clean than be dirty.

"That was a great time we had, BB-8. I'm gonna go take a quick shower and, then, maybe order a pizza once I'm done. Are you going to be okay while I'm gone for five minutes?" I asked. BB-8 beeped as if he said 'yep'. I giggled at his response and said, "Alright. You be a good droid and I'll be right back." I said, and, then, I headed to the bathroom in my bedroom to take a quick shower.

*Rey's POV*

After waiting for a short time, I could sense that the girl was finally out of sight from BB-8 and it was now our chance to go get him. "Come on. Let's go." I said, before I moved from our spot and started running towards the building, with Finn and Poe behind me. "Rey, what if she comes back? We'll get caught." Finn asked. "Don't worry, Finn. We're just going in there to get BB-8 and, then, we'll leave before that girl could come back and see us. I'm sure Rey knows what she's doing. Never doubt someone who's Force-Sensitive." Poe said. "Thank you, Poe." I said, sarcastically, as the three of us ran up the stairs.

*Kylo's POV*

Once Rey and the others ran out of their hiding spot, in plain sight, I turned to General Hux and ordered, "Move out, General." Then, we both moved from our spot and ran towards the building, without Rey or the other two noticing us.

*Third Person's POV*

Rey, Finn, and Poe got to the second floor and stopped in front of the located door. Poe tried to open the door, but it was locked. He groaned in frustration until Rey said, "Wait a second, Poe. Let me try." Then, she concentrated her Force on the doorknob, where it unlocked from the other side, and the door opened by itself. When the door came to a complete stop, they were happy to see BB-8 rolling around and beeping in excitement to be reunited with his friends, especially with Poe.

"BB-8!" Poe exclaimed, as he immediately ran inside and kneeled in front of the droid and hugged him. Rey and Finn walked inside and stood by Poe, while they looked down at BB-8, with Poe continuously talking to the droid. "Thank goodness you're all right, BB-8. We were so worried about you." Rey said. "Did that girl hurt you or try to harm you at all, little buddy?" Poe asked. BB-8 beeped back in response. "She saved your life and took care of you? Well, that's good to know. I'm glad to hear that." Poe said. "Yeah. It's good that you were safe with someone, BB-8. Now let's get out of here." Finn said.

"You three aren't going anywhere." The trio quickly turned around when they heard a familiar voice. They were shocked to see Kylo Ren and General Hux standing at the door. "It's nice to see that these three have finally found their missing droid, Ren." General Hux said. "But they never thought they would be face-to-face with us." Kylo added. "What are you two doing here?" Poe asked, demandingly. "We followed you three here to see if you would lead us to your new Resistance Base. But instead, we wanted to pay you all a little visit and settle this once and for all." Kylo explained, while he and General Hux grabbed their weapons. Kylo activated his red lightsaber and General Hux loaded his blaster.

Rey immediately drew out her blue lightsaber, while Finn and Poe took out their blasters and aimed them at the two enemies. BB-8 beeped frantically and rolled to the back bedroom. The two enemies stared at each other with pure hatred in their eyes and all their weapons drawn towards each other, getting ready to fight.

*(y/n)'s POV*

After I finished taking a quick five minute shower, I changed into new clothes; blue exercise shorts, a t-shirt, a hoodless sweatshirt, and fuzzy socks. While I was drying my (h/c) hair, I heard BB-8 beeping, frantically. I opened my bathroom door and saw him at the entrance, looking as if he was panicking. "BB-8, what is it, buddy? Did something scare you?" I asked, concerned. He beeped something that I couldn't understand until I heard a zapping noise and a high pitch sound coming from the living room.

Thinking ahead, I grabbed my baseball for defense and I, slowly, walked out of my bedroom to investigate. If it was Paul pulling a prank on me, I would immediately call the cops on him for breaking an entry. But that wasn't the case. I felt that something wasn't right.

When I got to the living room, I was shocked to see five people standing in the middle of my living room, with weapons drawn; ones I've never even seen before, especially the ones that looked like laser swords. They looked like they were about to fight. But I wasn't gonna let that happen. Not in my place.

"Hey!" I shouted to get their attention, with my baseball bat held up. All five of them turned their heads and saw me, stunned, knowing they have been caught. They stood in their spots, not saying a word, but with their weapons still out. "Who are you people? I demand to know what's going on." I said, demandingly, with BB-8 hiding behind my leg, frightened.
