Poe and Finn crash into a hug. The rebel base buzzes in excitement, Adam smiles as he, Lando and Chewie exit the Falcon, quickly patting C-3PO on the shoulder before joining the hug as Finn laughs. The three pull away as Chewie and Lando join them, shaking hands and wide smiles. Three x-wings fly above them landing on the edge of the base, Poe's eyes never leaving them as they land, the group pushing through the base and rushing towards the three x-wings. 

"Rey!" Adam shouts, rushing to hug her just as he feet touch the ground making her laugh as she is pulled into a hug. 

Poe watches as Aurora jumps down from her ship, stumbling slightly as she winces in pain. His eyes meet hers. He rushes to her as she does the same, stumbling into him as she wraps her arms around his shoulders, legs wrapped around his middle as she holds onto him tightly and he does the same. She ignores every pain in her body as she holds onto him, hand pressing the back of his head into her shoulder as she presses a kiss on the side of his head before pulling away to press her forehead onto his. 

"I love you," She whispers, "I can't do that ever again, I can't Poe, I love you-"

Poe gently shushes her, pressing his lips on her cheek and he gently lowers her to her feet, cupping her face in his hands, her fingers lacing over his, "You won't do that again, I love you so much, we are here Princess." 

Aurora presses her lips to his, the two desperately sharing a heated kiss, full of passion and love. Poe's hands sit on her spine making her wince, pulling back slightly. Poe frowns, worry written all over his face. 

"What? Are you okay?" 

Aurora nods, brushing some curls off his forehead, "My back, I am fine-"

Poe gently turns her around, eyes widening at the red lines and dark bruises, Aurora looks over her shoulder at him, "Poe, it's fine, it will heal later just let us enjoy today." 

"Aurora," Poe mutters, fingertips gently running over the angry lines, "We need to get you to the-"

"Poe," Aurora cuts him off, turning to cup his face and take the attention off her back, "Enjoy today, I am fine." 

Poe pulls her into him, kissing her again, Aurora smiles against his lips, pulling away ever so slightly to gaze at his face. 

"Can this be a group hug or should we give you a minuet?" 

Aurora laughs with Poe, their arms wrapped around each other loosely as they face a beaming Finn, Adam, Rey, Chewie and Ben. 

"I guess it can be a group hug." 

Finn laughs, the group moving to wrap their arms around each other in a huge group hug. Aurora felt happy, a new sense of freedom shone over them all as they held each other. It was finally over.

Aurora stood on top of the hill watching as the sky lit up with fire works and the party below beamed with life. Her back now healed thanks to herself, leaving red scars up her back, her hair blew gently in the wind as Chewie stood beside her, arm around her shoulders. 

"You think they would be proud Chewie?"

Chewie roared, holding onto a little tighter making her smile, leaning into his side, "Thank you for everything Chewie, I love you."

Chewie looked down fondly at her with a growl in reply.

Poe sat beside BB-8, the droid beeping away as Poe listened with a smile. The two sat on the entrance of the Falcon as everyone danced around the fires to the music and talked away. The base beaming with life. Poe looked up as BB-8 rolled towards Aurora who walked towards them with Han's jacket wrapped around her. She smiles down at the droid, patting his head before following him back to Poe. He smiled up at her, letting her sit between his legs as she lent back into him. He wraps his arms around her middle, letting her steal some of his drink before leaning her head against his shoulder. 

He presses a kiss on her head and the two listen to BB-8 again he beeps. Ben sits on the other side of BB-8 with a drink in hand and in some of Han's old cloths left on the Falcon, Chewie stands lent against some crates with Lando and Maz. Rey and Adam sit on the ground, her head lent on his shoulder as Finn comes to sit beside Aurora and Poe a smile on his face. C-3PO stood beside R2 a hand resting on the droid as they all watch the rebel base beam with hope once again.

Aurora and Ben stand side by side over looking the small homestead on Tatooine, Luke's home all those years ago now full of sand and dusted over. Aurora held Luke and their mother's lightsabre in her hands as Ben held out the cloth for her to place the lightsabres in. Placing the wrapped lightsabre's on the sand, Aurora placed her hand over the cloth with a sad smile as Ben placed a hand on her shoulder. 

The lightsabres sank into the sand before Aurora stood, holding out her hand for Ben to take, which he does with a small smile. Over their shoulder stood Luke and Leia, smiling at the two. 

"You ready to find the next generation of Jedi?" Ben asks, looking down at his sister. 

"Are you?" She questions with a smile. 

Ben takes a deep breath, looking back over the homestead as the sun began to set, "I hope so." 

"You'll be fine," Aurora chuckles, nudging his side with hers, "Lets make them proud." 

"You already have Rora."
