Young skywalker

24.

"We'll see" sage said back angrily. Kylo then suddenly swiped at sage and took the necklace clean off of her. She fell back in shock as Poe caught her

"Hey you alright?" He asked in a worried voice

"We have to get back to the falcon"

"Why? What happened?" Finn said running up to the pair. Poe still held onto sage for dear life, she scared him when she did this. He wondered where she went to when she spaced out like that. He had seen her do it once or twice before and both times she seemed to know something would happen before anyone else did. He just assumed it was her 'space magic' as he liked to call it

"It's Ren" they all looked at each other and began to took off at a run

"Hold it right there!" A couple of troopers yelled out to them "I've located the resistance fugitives"

Suddenly out of no where the trooper was shot down by a masked man. "Follow me" the man said leading them away from the scene. The group looked at each other suspiciously. No one moved until sage started following him. Both fun and Poe looked at each other with concerned expressions before following sages lead. the man brought the group into something that looked like a hut on wheels "Leia sent me a transmission" he said through his mask which covered his whole face

"How did you find us?" Poe asked suspiciously

"Wookie's stand out in a crowd" he said as he took off his helmet revealing his face

"Lando!" Sage and chewie yelled out together in shock

"My god.... You really do look just like your mother" lando said giving the girl a hug. She had her mothers eyes but her fathers smile and was much older than the last time he had seen her. He put both his hands on her shoulder as he looked to her with sorrow "sage, I'm so sorry about your father..." She gave the man a sad smile in return patting his hand that rested on her shoulder

"General we're looking for exegol. Do you happen to know where we could find a wayfinder around here?" Poe said getting straight to business not wanting to waste anytime

Lando looked to sage "of course you are....." lando then took out a photo of the wayfinder "only two were made

"My father came here to find one.... You, you were with him. Weren't you?"

"Always the perceptive one" he smiled at the girl "your father and I were trailing an old Jedi hunter, we we're actually looking for clues as too we could find you sage...." He said looking down in sorrow. Sage grabbed his shoulder

"It's all right, we found each other" she smiled to the old man

Lando smiled at the strong girl he saw grow up before his eyes "his name was Ochi bastoon. We found out he was carrying a clue, that could lead to a wayfinder" he explained "we followed his ship halfway across the galaxy here. But when we got to his ship it was abandoned, no clues and no wayfinder"

"Is the ship still here?"

"It's out in the desert, where he left it"

"We need to get to that ship, search it again"

Poe looked out the window to see first order ships and tie fighters landing on the outer rim of the festival "I got a bad feeling about this" he said

"The ship is out past lurch canyon, go!" He told the group

"Thank you general" Poe said running out of the hut

"Aunt Leia needs pilots uncle lando" sage said turning to the man

"Baby, my flying days are long gone..... but do me a favor, give Leia my love"

"You should give it to her yourself..... thank you" she smiled and hugged before running out and following the rest of the group "there!" Poe pointed "those speeders" he ran up to them and began messing with the wires to start it up

"How do you know how to do that?" Finn said troubled by his buddies skills at stealing a speeder. Poe didn't answer him because Suddenly the owner of said speeder started yelling at them and coming there way

"Shit we gotta go" Poe said rushing them all into the speeders.

They all shot at the troopers with there blasters as they took off into the vast desert. They flew through just fine until two troopers began to hover above the ground using jet packs of some kind

"They fly now!" Finn yelled out

"They fly now?" Sage asked confused looking up at the troopers who where still shooting at them

"They fly now." Poe stated sarcastically as he looked up. They took out all of the troopers that where falling them before coming up to a rock formation that the abandoned ship was placed on

"That's the ship!" Sage yelled out "..... I've seen that ship before" suddenly one last trooper came flying out around the formation blowing up the speeders sending the group flying through the air.
They landed into a pool of weird looking sand, it was much darker and heavier than normal sand. Sage looked up and shot the trooper down watching him fall to the ground and explode.

Poe started to feel himself being sucked into the ground by the sand "what the hell is this?" He yelled out trying to escape it

"Sinking fields! Try to grab something!" Finn yelled out

"Will the agony ever end!" 3po cried out As they all began to sink deeper and deeper

"Poe!" Sage yelled out trying to reach out to him

"Sage!" He responded neck deep in the sand

"No!" She cried out as he sank beneath the ground

"Sage! Sage i never told you.... Sa-" Finn was cut off before succumbing to the sand. Sage now gave up fighting the sinking field and sunk into the terrifying sand herself
