Ben's POV:
As we are getting ready to leave the Falcon I pull Rey aside. I wrap her in one of the cloaks I found in the crates and place the hood on her head to almost cover her entire face, then do the same with the other one I found for myself. I hear Rey giggle and it's a beautiful sound to my ears. "Why are we dressed like this, it's not like I haven't been here before?" She asks. "Because if the rumors are true we have way more enemies than friends out there right now. Plus some of the men in there are known to get pretty handly and there is only one person I want looking at you like that." I reply. She nods with a small blush that has spread across her checks that I can barely make out under the hood. I sense her understanding through our bond as we head off the ship.
Rey's POV:
It is way busier here then it was last time I was here. I grab Ben's hand and drag him towards that secret basement I found on my last trip here with Han Solo. Once we are in I remove the stupid hood that blocks my vision too much. I was so focused on making sure we weren't followed by unwanted guests, I didn't notice a fairly large crack in the floor. My foot snags on the uneven surface and I end up falling to my knees. "Rey are you ok?" Ban asks while kneeling down to give me a hand. "Yeah, I'm ok" I try to reassure him as I start to push myself back up. That's when I notice one of the pavers my hand is on is loose. I start to pull at the stone and it comes up with ease. Attached to it is a box that immediately grabs my attention. I mess with the box for a moment until I find my way into it revealing one of the sacred Jebi texts. I hand it over to Ben hoping he is better at translating the ancient language then I am. I curl up in his lap like a small child would with their parents during storytime. As he begins to read it aloud, we hear someone coming towards us. We glance at each other with a reassuring nod before reaching for our lightsabers. "No need for those, you are safe here," Maz announces, allowing me to instantly relax as Ben's tightened grip around me relaxes to one that's more comforting.
