- 4 years later, Jakku.

Aurora walks across the small village along side Poe. She wraps her white jacket around her tighter covering her black short sleeved top, her blaster tucked to her side in her waist garter belt. Her dark hair curled and pulled over her shoulders. Poe dressed in a light brown shirt tucked in black trousers, a jacket over it. 

The two were on the planet to talk to a man named Lor San Tekka, an elderly man who had the map leading to the missing Luke Skywalker. The pair walked into a hut, greeted by Lon San Tekka who offers them both a seat. Poe's knee knocking against Aurora's as they sit together. 

"We are here on behalf of General Organa," Poe starts, "We believe you have something for us." 

"You must be her daughter, you look just like her when she was in her rebellious days," Tekka smiles, his eyes meeting her light blues ones.

Aurora smiles softly, "I don't think I could be as beautiful as my mother." 

Tekka rolls his eyes playfully with a wide smile, he reaches to grab a small leather bag. Poe reaches over, holding out his hand for it. Tekka places it in his hand, closing Poe's fingers over the small bag.

"This will begin to make thing right," Tekka says, "I've travelled too far and seen to much to ignore the despair in the galaxy, without the Jedi, there can be no balance in the Force."

"Well, because of you," Poe replies, smiling softly, "The General's been after this for a long time." 

"The General? To me, she's royalty."

Aurora smiles but soon her mind is taken somewhere else, the conversation between Poe and Tekka is nothing but murmurs. She stands, making her way out the tent, ignoring BB-8 who nudges her leg. Poe and Tekka make their way out of the tent following her. Poe places a hand on her back, gaining her attention. He was here. And he knew she was there too.

"We need to go," Aurora whispers, Poe saw the panic in her eyes and nods. 

Tekka places a hand on her arm, "Go, quickly," He turns to Poe, "Get the Princess home." 

Poe doesn't hesitate, taking Aurora's hand and running off as the First Order lands.  They sprinted for the outskirts of the village, where the x-wing was, sliding down the dune as Aurora spared a glance behind her and stormtroopers made their way out of their landed ships, already lighting the village up in flames. Climbing into the x-wing, Aurora put on her head seat. Suddenly the ship lurches to the side as a blaster fire hits the left side of the ship.
