(Hope in the darkness.)

Chapter eleven:

When Cale Lestin and Rey looked through the records on Coruacant they saw that Anakin Skywalker had come from a planet called Tatooine. The planet was where they would find most of their information.

When Cale Lestin and Rey had landed on Tatooine they saw that it was a hot, desert planet. They used Force Cloak to disguise themselves so that the locals wouldn't give them any trouble. They went up to a person and asked where they were.

The man replied. "This is Mos Eisley Cantina. You guys look as though you could use a place to sleep. If y'all wish you could come back to my house and have dinner with my family." Cale Lestin and Rey thought for a minute and said to themselves that they could always leave if they posed a threat. "We will go." Said Rey.

Cale Lestin and Rey and the man jumped into the man's landspeeder and flew off. While they were riding the man spoke. "The names Lando Calrissian by the way. What's yours?" Cale Lestin hesitated for a minute without looking at him. "Cale Lestin and this is my Jedi Master Rey."

"So where do y'all come from?" They didn't answer him. "Okay can y'all at least tell me about your friends or family." Yet again they did not answer. "Guess we won't talk then." Said Lando Calrissian.

When they arrived at Lando's house a girl around the age of five ran out yelling. "Uncle Lando. Uncle Lando." Said young Jaina Solo. Lando Calrissian bent down and put the girl over his shoulders. "Oh, excuse me this is my godchild Jaina Solo." Said Lando Calrissian. A surprised look came across Cale's and Rey's face. "Did you say Solo?" Asked Cale Lestin.

"Yes, I did why?" Asked Lando Calrissian. Rey shook her head and said. "Never mind, as she and Cale started to walk into the house. "Strange people aren't they Jaina?" Asked Lando Calrissian.

"Yup." Replied Jaina Solo.

Kylo Ren had three Star Destroyers looking for Cale Lestin and Rey but to no avail. Kylo Ren was sitting in his chambers with his helmet off, trying to think. As soon as he healed himself the dark side left him and his body went back to normal.

He used Force Grip to make the meditation chamber fall back into place so he could think. If only he could retrieve Rey. Then maybe they could find the secret to heal him from his wounds. Just then an officer walked in. The helmet was attached back into place as the man spoke. "Supreme Leader Ren, Emperor Palpatine wishes to speak with you." Kylo Ren walked away without saying a word.

The Calrissian family had set down for dinner. While they were eating Lando saw that Rey had something on her mind. He asked if she did and she responded. "Do you know of a man named Anakin Skywalker?" Asked Rey. Jaina Solo looked up when she heard her grandfather's name. "Do you know something about my grandfather?" Asked Jaina Solo.

Lando Calrissian frowned and said. "All we know is that he died a week after Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa was born." Rey could tell that he had been lying to the girl for some time.

Rey looked at Jaina and thought if you only knew how wrong he was.

Emperor Palpatine showed up in person instead of a holo to speak to Kylo Ren. "As of now Kylo Ren you will discontinue your search for Rey and Cale Lestin. I will pick someone from my Royal Guard to continue the search." Said Emperor Palpatine.

"They are searching through my grandfather's past. Wouldn't it be wiser if it was I who continued the search." Replied Kylo Ren. "Are you saying that I am unwise Supreme Leader Ren?" Asked Emperor Palpatine.

"No, I am sorry my Master I didn't mean any disrespect." Replied Kylo Ren.

"Good. It has come to my attention that the Kaminoans have went behind my back and have secretly made their own Clone army. I want you to investigate this personally." Said Emperor Palpatine. "It shall be done." Replied Kylo Ren.

It was nightfall on Tatooine. Jaina Solo had just fallen asleep. Cale Lestin and Rey was sitting on a window sill, while Cale was tying her long brown hair into triple buns with brown ponytail holders and Lando Calrissian walked up behind them. "How do you know Anakin Skywalker?" Lando Calrissian said.

Still looking at the night sky Cale Lestin and Rey did a fake laugh. "I'm not sure if we really do." Replied Rey.

Lando Calrissian didn't quite understand but in response he said. "Just don't get the girl's hopes up. Oh yeah I almost forgot. We're going into town tomorrow if you guys want to come." Said Lando Calrissian. Cale Lestin and Rey nodded their heads while Cale was still tying her long brown hair into triple buns and, and Lando Calrissian walked away.

Emperor Palpatine's ship had launched and was heading for Exegol. But before Emperor Palpatine had left the ship Kylo Ren had a plan already set in motion. He would send a Bounty Hunter to retrieve Cale Lestin and Rey.

When they came back Rey would not be allowed to leave his side. None of Emperor Palpatine's assassins would be able to kill her if he was there.

Not even Emperor Palpatine himself would try to kill her. Emperor Palpatine and himself were friends yes, but none would dare get in the others way.

General Pryde had entered the room with documents in hand. "These are the names of the Bounty Hunter's you have ordered my Lord." Said General Pryde. Kylo Ren took the list and skimmed through it until one name got his eye. "General.' Said Kylo Ren.

"Yes, Supreme Leader?" Asked General Pryde.

"I want more information on this Bounty Hunter named Boba Fett." Replied Kylo Ren.

Emperor Palpatine was inside his throne room looking through documents when a man in a dark cloak appeared.

"Ah, you have finally arrived. I need you to find a young girl named Rey and her apprentice Cale Lestin and bring them to me alive. And I do mean alive. Do you understand me Kuruk?" Said Emperor Palpatine.

"Yes, my Master." Replied the second Knight of Ren.
