Avalon, BB-8, Finn, and Han Solo stand on the ramp of the Millennium Falcon, the iconic ship that has seen its share of adventures across the galaxy. The air hums with the distant sounds of the base, but here, on the creaking metal ramp, a moment of quiet connection unfolds.

Avalon, her eyes alight with the stars, turns to Finn with a warm smile, extending a hand in greeting, "I'm Avalon."

Finn, a former stormtrooper with a past shrouded in the shadows of the First Order, takes Avalon's hand with a mixture of gratitude and trepidation. His eyes, dark and haunted, meet hers, and for a moment, the weight of unspoken stories lingers in the air.

"Finn," He replies, his voice carrying the weight of the secrets he guards, "Finn, yeah, that's me. Nice ship you got here."

Avalon chuckles, the sound echoing in the cavernous space of the Millennium Falcon, "Thanks, it's been through a lot."

The ship's interior welcomes them with the familiar scent of oil, the hum of machinery, and the indelible spirit of adventure. Avalon leads Finn through the corridors, pointing out the hidden compartments, sharing stories of past escapades, and weaving a narrative of the Falcon's history.

As they walk, Finn can't help but marvel at the ship's interior—a juxtaposition of worn upholstery and cutting-edge technology. Avalon's absent-minded nature becomes evident as she occasionally drifts off into brief moments of introspection, her gaze fixed on some unseen point in the distance.

As they continue their tour, Avalon introduces Finn to the Falcon's quirks and idiosyncrasies. The holographic chess table, the cozy sleeping quarters, and the unmistakable sense that this ship is not just a vessel but a living entity with a soul of its own.

BB-8, trailing behind them, emits a series of beeps, adding its own commentary to the tour. Finn, though initially reserved, finds himself drawn into the camaraderie that seems to define life aboard the Falcon.

The tour concludes in the cockpit, where Han Solo sits at the controls, a wry smile playing on his lips, "How's the tour going, kids?"

Avalon grins, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm, "Just showing Finn the ropes."

Avalon takes a seat behind the copilot's chair, gesturing for Finn to join her. As the ship's engines hum to life, the Millennium Falcon becomes more than just a vessel—it becomes a shared space where threads of connection are woven, binding individuals with disparate pasts into a tapestry of shared destiny.

The Starkiller Base looms ahead, a formidable monolith against the backdrop of space. The Millennium Falcon, battered and bruised from its crash landing, sits nestled among the snow-covered terrain. Avalon Solo, Finn, Han, and Chewbacca disembark, their footsteps leaving imprints on the powdery snow.

As they make their way through the icy halls of the Starkiller Base, the air is thick with tension. The mission, a desperate attempt to disable the weapon that threatens the galaxy, demands precision and stealth.

Avalon, her eyes wide with the stars' reflection, moves with purpose alongside her father, Finn, and the towering figure of Chewbacca. The urgency of the mission pulses through the group, and the shared determination to confront the First Order binds them together.

In the dimly lit corridors, the distant hum of machinery creates an ominous soundtrack to their clandestine journey. Avalon, though focused on the task at hand, can't help but feel a sense of awe at the magnitude of the Starkiller Base—an instrument of destruction that casts a shadow over the galaxy.

As they approach a junction in the hallways, Finn, with his knowledge of the base's layout, takes the lead. The mission requires silence, and the group moves with the stealth of shadows, blending into the stark surroundings.

The tension escalates as they navigate the labyrinthine corridors, each step a deliberate dance between evasion and progress. Then, around a corner, they come across a figure—a scavenger draped in desert robes.

Finn's eyes widen in recognition, and he places a finger to his lips, signaling for quiet. Avalon, her gaze following Finn's lead, catches sight of the mysterious figure. Her breath catches as the scavenger turns, revealing a face that carries the weight of both hardship and resilience.

Rey, the girl from nowhere, stands before them, her eyes a mirror reflecting the vastness of the unknown. Finn, having shared his own journey with Rey, approaches her with a mixture of relief and concern.

Avalon, however, remains frozen in the shadows, her gaze fixed on Rey's face—a face that seems to radiate a quiet strength amidst the chaos of the Starkiller Base. The girl's beauty, both ethereal and grounded, leaves Avalon momentarily breathless.

Rey's eyes, accustomed to scanning the horizon for hope in the deserts of Jakku, meet Avalon's. There's a pause—an exchange of unspoken understanding that transcends words. In that moment, the stars in Avalon's eyes reflect the resilience and beauty she sees in Rey.

Finn, sensing the weight of the silent encounter, introduces Avalon to Rey with a subtle nod. Avalon, finding her voice, manages a quiet, "Hi."

Rey nods in acknowledgment, a faint smile playing on her lips.

The base pulses with an ominous energy as Han Solo, haunted by the specter of his son's fall, confronts Kylo Ren on the perilous bridge. Rey, Finn, and Avalon, caught in the crossfire of a family's shattered destiny, watch with bated breath.

Avalon, her heart heavy with the weight of familial strife, stands alongside Rey and Finn as they witness the unfolding tragedy. The stark bridge, suspended against the backdrop of the weaponized planet, becomes a stage for a confrontation that echoes through the corridors of destiny.

As Han Solo faces Kylo Ren, the air thickens with a sense of impending doom. Avalon, the stars in her eyes now obscured by the shadows of betrayal, clutches her chest as the agony of witnessing her family's fracture sears through her soul.

The confrontation unfolds with a heartbreaking inevitability. Han, desperately reaching out to the remnants of the son he once knew, pleads for Kylo Ren to come back. The crimson glow of Kylo's lightsaber casts an eerie light on their strained faces, a visual representation of the conflict that has torn their family asunder.

Avalon's breath catches as she watches the exchange, her connection to the Force amplifying the emotional resonance of the moment. The echoes of a once-unbreakable bond reverberate through the bridge, drowned out by the hum of the Starkiller Base's destructive power.

Then, as the shadows deepen, Kylo Ren makes a choice—a choice that severs the last tethers of family ties. The lightsaber ignites, casting a harsh glow on Han Solo's face, and the bridge becomes a stage for an irreversible tragedy.

Time slows as Kylo Ren strikes, and the echoes of the lightsaber's deadly hum fill the air. Han Solo, a hero of the Rebellion, falls—betrayed by the very blood that once bound them together.

Avalon's world shatters.

Her scream, a raw and visceral force, pierces the air. The sound, a manifestation of her heart's torment, reverberates through the corridors of the Starkiller Base. The stars in her eyes flicker, dulled by the overwhelming darkness that engulfs her.

Kylo Ren, his eyes fixed on the lifeless form of Han Solo, looks up. The bridge becomes a stage where the past and present collide—a battlefield of emotions laid bare.

Rey and Finn, their faces reflecting the horror of the scene, rush to Avalon's side. They grab her arms, pulling her away from the unfolding nightmare. Avalon, caught in the throes of grief and disbelief, resists, her limbs thrashing in futile protest.

Kylo Ren, sensing the disturbance in the Force, locks eyes with Avalon for the first time in years. The gaze holds a lifetime of shared memories—the innocence of childhood, the bonds of family, and the inexorable descent into darkness.

Avalon's scream, a force of nature that defies the Starkiller's destructive power, echoes in Kylo Ren's ears. The sibling connection, long suppressed by the weight of betrayal, resurfaces in that moment—a silent acknowledgment of shared pain and shattered destinies.

As Rey and Finn forcibly pull Avalon away from the bridge, the devastation unfolds behind them. The lifeless body of Han Solo, a hero swallowed by the shadows of his son's fall, remains a haunting tableau against the stark backdrop of the Starkiller Base.

The trio, shadows of their former selves, retreat into the labyrinthine corridors. Avalon's screams, now muffled by the distance, leave an indelible imprint on the cold metal walls—a testament to the fractures that now define the Solo legacy.

The snowy terrain outside the Starkiller Base stretches endlessly, a desolate landscape that bears witness to the echoes of tragedy. Rey and Finn, their steps heavy with the weight of grief, drag Avalon through the knee-deep snow. The cold bites at their faces, but the chill within their hearts runs deeper.

Avalon, her eyes still reflecting the stars' sorrow, stumbles along, her mind a turbulent sea of emotions. The image of her father falling into the abyss of darkness haunts her every thought, a specter that refuses to be banished.

As they navigate the treacherous landscape, a presence looms behind them—a shadow in the snowy expanse. Kylo Ren, his cape billowing in the icy wind, emerges from the Starkiller Base with relentless determination. The crimson glow of his lightsaber pierces through the falling snowflakes, a harbinger of impending danger.

Rey, Finn, and Avalon sense the encroaching darkness, and their pace quickens. The urgency of escape fuels their movements, but grief and shock slow their steps. Avalon, still grappling with the aftermath of her father's demise, moves mechanically, her eyes glazed with the residue of tears.

The first strike comes without warning. Kylo Ren, a force of malevolence in the snowy wilderness, unleashes a torrent of aggression. The red blade of his lightsaber slashes through the air, aiming for the trio that represents a threat to his newfound purpose.

Rey, ignited by the raw strength of the Force, retaliates. Her own blue lightsaber meets Kylo's with a clash that resonates through the frigid air. Finn, wielding a weapon of lesser power, fights with fierce determination, his loyalty to his newfound friends overshadowing the fear that threatens to consume him.

Avalon, caught in the crossfire, watches the dance of lightsabers with a detached fascination. The vibrant hues of red and blue blur against the white canvas of snow, a stark reminder of the battles waged between light and darkness.

The ground beneath them trembles with each clash. Kylo Ren, his anger and pain manifesting in every strike, presses forward with relentless determination. Rey, fueled by the echoes of her own past and the awakening power within her, fights back with an unyielding spirit.

Finn, a former stormtrooper forged in the crucible of conflict, holds his ground, his newfound purpose driving him to stand against the encroaching shadows. The snowy battlefield becomes a stage for a cosmic struggle, a microcosm of the eternal war between the forces that shape the destiny of the galaxy.

Avalon, her senses dulled by grief, remains on the periphery of the conflict. Her eyes, still reflecting the stars, watch the ballet of blades with a detached numbness. The lightsaber strikes, the acrobatic movements, and the clash of wills become a surreal dance—a dance that unfolds against the backdrop of her fractured reality.

As the clash continues, Kylo Ren's relentless pursuit of the trio becomes evident. He fights not just for victory but for the affirmation of a destiny that beckons him from the depths of the shadows.

The snowy battlefield bears witness to a dance of destiny, and Kylo Ren's relentless assault proves too much for Rey and Finn. Each stroke of his crimson blade cuts through the air with a ferocity born from the depths of his inner turmoil. The clash of lightsabers reverberates through the stillness of the snowy expanse, each strike echoing the tumultuous struggle within Kylo Ren's tortured soul.

Rey and Finn, battered and bruised, find themselves unable to match the fury of Kylo's onslaught. The icy wind carries their labored breaths as they attempt to hold their ground against an adversary driven by the shadows of the past.

Avalon, the stars in her eyes now ignited with determination, watches the unequal struggle unfold. The pain of witnessing her father's demise fuels a fire within her—a fire that demands action. As Kylo Ren moves closer to delivering the final blow, Avalon can no longer stand on the sidelines.

With a burst of resolve, Avalon steps forward, her pink lightsaber humming to life. The vibrant hue stands in stark contrast to Kylo's malevolent red. The clash of colors becomes a visual representation of the familial divide that has plagued the Solo legacy.

Kylo Ren, sensing Avalon's presence, turns to face his sister. The recognition in his eyes is met with a steely determination in Avalon's gaze. The sibling connection, once a source of shared joy, now manifests in the clash of opposing lightsabers.

The dance of blades begins anew, but this time, it's a clash of siblings—a conflict etched with the scars of betrayal and fractured bonds. Avalon, her movements guided by an unyielding resolve, fights not just to protect her newfound friends but to confront the darkness that has consumed her brother.

The icy air becomes charged with tension as Avalon and Kylo Ren lock eyes. The silent exchange carries the weight of shared memories, the echoes of a time when laughter and camaraderie defined their relationship. Now, the snowy battlefield becomes a stage for a reckoning—a confrontation that transcends the boundaries of blood ties.

The clash of lightsabers is a symphony of color—a dance between pink and red that paints the snowy canvas with the struggles of two souls entwined in the cosmic tapestry of the Force. Avalon, her movements a reflection of both grace and determination, fights not just for the present but for the possibility of redemption that lingers within her brother's tortured spirit.

Kylo Ren, driven by the shadows of the past, fights with an intensity that borders on desperation. His strikes are fueled by the conflicted emotions that churn within him—the legacy of Vader, the weight of expectation, and the insatiable hunger for power.

Avalon, channeling the strength of her resolve, parries each strike with a finesse born from her connection to the Force. The pink lightsaber, a symbol of her unique journey, becomes a beacon of hope amidst the snowy darkness.

The battle unfolds with a relentless ebb and flow, each clash of lightsabers a testament to the complexities of family and the enduring power of the Force. The icy terrain, now marked by the imprint of dueling combatants, becomes a stage for a confrontation that transcends the boundaries of destiny.

As Avalon and Kylo Ren continue their dance, the snowy expanse bears witness to a cosmic struggle—a struggle that holds the potential to redefine the course of the Solo legacy. The stars in Avalon's eyes reflect the intensity of the battle, and in the quiet moments between strikes, the echoes of a sibling connection resonate through the frigid air—a connection that, despite the ravages of darkness, refuses to be extinguished.

The icy battlefield becomes a crucible for the clash between siblings—Avalon and Kylo Ren locked in a dance of destiny. The pink and red lightsabers weave through the snowy air, leaving trails of vibrant hues against the muted landscape. Each strike, a symphony of emotions, echoes the internal turmoil that propels the siblings into this epic confrontation.

Kylo Ren, his movements sharp and calculated, is a force to be reckoned with. The pain of his past and the allure of the dark side fuel his every strike. The crimson blade slices through the air with a malevolent purpose, a reflection of the internal conflict that rages within him.

Avalon meets Kylo's strikes with a newfound strength. The stars in her eyes, once a symbol of innocence, now mirror the intensity of the battle unfolding on the snowy stage.

The siblings circle each other, their eyes locked in a silent exchange that transcends words. In that moment, the weight of their shared history, the laughter of childhood, and the echoes of a time when familial bonds were unbroken hangs heavy in the air.

Avalon, fueled by a wrath born of grief and betrayal, strikes with an intensity that surprises even herself. The pink lightsaber becomes an extension of her emotions, each swing carrying the weight of anger, sorrow, and the indomitable spirit of rebellion inherited from her parents.

Kylo Ren, caught off guard by his sister's ferocity, struggles to match the emotional intensity of her strikes. The echoes of their father's demise reverberate through the battlefield, adding a layer of complexity to the duel. The dark side, an ever-present seduction, tugs at Kylo's soul, whispering promises of power and release.

The clash of lightsabers becomes a dance of wrath—a manifestation of Avalon's anger at the loss of her father. Each strike is a cry for justice, a demand that the universe reckon with the pain inflicted upon her family. The snowy expanse bears witness to the collision of sibling bonds torn asunder by the relentless march of destiny.

As the siblings clash beneath the stars, the emotional crescendo reaches its peak. Avalon, her pink lightsaber a beacon of defiance, channels her anger into every strike. Kylo Ren, torn between the pull of the dark side and the echoes of his sister's wrath, finds himself caught in a tempest of conflicting emotions.

Their lightsabers meet with a resounding clash, the vibrant hues of pink and red mingling in a dance that tells the story of a family torn apart. In the midst of the ferocious battle, words are exchanged—barbs that cut deeper than the lightsabers they wield.

"You killed him, Ben!" Avalon's voice cuts through the frozen air, a raw expression of anger and grief, "Our own father!"

Kylo Ren, his face obscured by the mask of darkness, responds with a snarl, "He was weak."

The argument fuels the intensity of their strikes. The snowy battlefield becomes a stage for a tempest of emotions—a storm that threatens to consume the very fabric of their familial bonds.

Avalon, her pink lightsaber weaving through the darkness, fights not just for justice but for the belief that redemption is still possible for her brother, " There's still light in you. I can feel it."

Kylo Ren scoffs, his movements fueled by the relentless pursuit of power, "Light is a weakness."

The clash continues, each word an echo of the internal struggles that define their destinies. In the heart of the conflict, Avalon seizes an opportunity, her lightsaber finding a gap in Kylo's defenses. She disarms him, leaving him defenseless in the snowy expanse.

Avalon, her chest heaving with exertion, steps back, her pink lightsaber still ignited. She looks at her brother, not with triumph but with a plea in her eyes—a plea for him to see reason, to recognize the light that still lingers within.

Kylo Ren, disarmed and vulnerable, meets Avalon's gaze with a mix of defiance and resignation.

"Ben, please," Avalon implores, her voice laced with desperation, "We can find another way."

Kylo Ren remains silent for a moment, the weight of his choices hanging heavily in the frigid air. The stars in Avalon's eyes, still shimmering with hope, reflect the uncertainty of the moment.

"We can't," Kylo Ren finally utters, his voice tinged with a bitterness that cuts through the icy silence.

Avalon, her heart heavy with the burden of familial bonds strained to the breaking point, deactivates her lightsaber. The pink blade sputters out, leaving only the stars in her eyes to illuminate the darkness.

As she turns away from her brother, the echoes of their duel linger in the quiet of the snowy night. The stars above, witnesses to the cosmic drama that unfolded, remain silent, their constellations a testament to the enduring spirit of a family marked by the complexities of light and darkness.

As Avalon steps away from the battlefield, her senses attuned to the echoes of conflict that linger in the frigid air, she sees Rey kneeling beside Finn's body.

Rey cradles Finn's still form. The stars in Avalon's eyes, dimmed by the shadows of recent events, reflect the somber tableau before her.

Avalon approaches Rey with measured steps, the crunch of snow beneath her boots a melancholy soundtrack to the scene. The bond between them, forged in the crucible of shared struggles, bridges the gap between strangers and allies bound by a common purpose.

Rey looks up as Avalon nears, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. The weight of the galaxy rests on her shoulders, and Finn's sacrifice becomes a stark reminder of the cost of resistance.

Rey nods, her gaze fixed on Finn as she feels his faint heartbeat.

The distant hum of the Millennium Falcon breaks the heavy silence. Chewbacca, the loyal co-pilot, brings the iconic ship to a gentle landing near the grieving figures. The ramp lowers, revealing the familiar interior of the ship that has borne witness to countless adventures.

As they enter the ship, the warmth of its interior offers a stark contrast to the cold embrace of the snowy landscape. The stars in Avalon's eyes, still flickering with the remnants of recent battles, find solace in the familiar hum of the Falcon's engines.

Chewbacca takes his place in the pilot's seat, his expression a mix of determination and grief. The ship ascends into the night sky, leaving behind the battlefield marked by the echoes of conflict. The stars above, indifferent to the struggles of the galaxy below, continue their silent vigil.

In the confines of the Falcon, Rey and Avalon find a shared space to process the weight of loss. The journey back to the Resistance base becomes a contemplative interlude, the stars in Avalon's eyes reflecting the somber hues of grief and resilience.

As the Falcon streaks through the cosmic canvas, the constellations above bear witness to the enduring spirit of those who carry the burden of resistance. The stars in Avalon's eyes, though dimmed by the shadows of recent events, remain a testament to the indomitable hope that lingers even in the face of loss.

The interior of the Millennium Falcon is a refuge from the frigid winds of loss that sweep across the battlefield. Rey, with a heart heavy, takes a seat next to Avalon. The stars in Avalon's eyes, once a reflection of innocence, now shimmer with the weight of recent events.

"I'm sorry for your loss," Rey offers, her voice a gentle breeze in the confined space of the ship.

She can feel the palpable sorrow that hangs in the air, a shared burden that unites them in the aftermath of tragedy. Avalon, tears still tracing silent paths down her cheeks, remains in stoic silence. The pain of loss, a relentless companion in times of war, settles in the lines of her furrowed brow and the downturn of her lips.

Rey, sensing the inadequacy of words in the face of such profound grief, searches for a way to bridge the gap between them. The stars in Avalon's eyes, though dimmed by sorrow, flicker with the vulnerability of shared humanity.

"Would you like a hug?" Rey finally asks, her voice carrying a tentative warmth.

The simplicity of the offer holds the unspoken understanding that sometimes, in the face of overwhelming loss, words can do little to mend the wounds. Avalon, still wrapped in the cocoon of her grief, looks at Rey with a mix of gratitude and exhaustion. The stars in her eyes, now obscured by tear-streaked cheeks, reflect the vulnerability that lingers beneath the surface.

Rey, without waiting for a verbal response, extends her arms. The offer is a silent acknowledgment of the pain they both carry—the shared burden of witnessing the toll of war. The stars in Rey's eyes, too, mirror the reflections of countless losses etched in the tapestry of her own journey.

Avalon hesitates for a moment, the weight of her sorrow pressing down on her shoulders. In the quiet confines of the Falcon, with the distant hum of engines as a backdrop, she leans into Rey's embrace. The stars in her eyes, though clouded by tears, find a momentary respite in the warmth of shared solace.

Rey's arms wrap gently around Avalon, creating a haven of understanding amidst the chaos of the galaxy. The stars in their eyes, though from different corners of the universe, reflect the shared constellations of pain and resilience.

Silence becomes a bridge between them—a language that transcends the limitations of words. The Falcon streaks through the vast expanse of space, carrying the weight of grief within its walls. The stars in Avalon's eyes, though still glistening with tears, find comfort in the quiet companionship of shared sorrow.

As the ship hurtles toward the Resistance base, the stars above bear witness to the intimate exchange—a moment suspended in time, where two souls, united by loss, seek solace in the silent language of empathy. The stars in Avalon's eyes, though momentarily dimmed, hold the promise of resilience in the face of galactic struggles.

The Millennium Falcon touches down at the Resistance base, greeted by the enthusiastic cheers of fellow fighters. The victorious return, however, does little to dispel the heavy shroud of grief that clings to Avalon's heart. Her steps, though guided by the inertia of the crowd, are weighed down by the memories of loss.

As she disembarks from the Falcon, her eyes scan the bustling base, searching for familiar faces amid the sea of rejoicing comrades. The stars in her eyes, still reflecting the residue of tears, flicker with a mix of weariness and determination.

Then, across the bustling activity, Avalon's gaze locks onto Poe Dameron. He stands amidst the crowd, his eyes scanning the returning heroes. The moment their eyes meet, a spark ignites within Avalon—a spark that transcends the shadows of grief.

Without a second thought, Avalon sprints across the base, her heart racing with a mixture of relief and longing. The cheers of victory blur into the background as she closes the distance between herself and her platonic soulmate. The stars in her eyes, though dimmed by recent sorrows, brighten with the anticipation of reunion.

Poe, sensing her approach, turns toward her with a grin that mirrors the joyous atmosphere of the base. Before he can utter a word, Avalon launches herself into his arms. The embrace is a collision of hearts, a testament to the unbreakable bond forged in the crucible of friendship.

"Poe," Avalon whispers, her voice muffled by the fabric of his flight suit.

Her tears, no longer held back, trace a path down her cheeks. The stars in her eyes, once clouded by grief, reflect the emotional storm that rages within. Poe, his arms wrapped securely around Avalon, feels the weight of her sorrow. He doesn't need words to understand the depth of her pain. The stars in his own eyes, though untainted by tears, mirror the empathy that binds their souls.

"It's okay, honey" Poe murmurs, his voice a soothing balm to her wounded spirit, "I've got you."

In the heart of the jubilant base, amidst the cheers and celebration, Avalon and Poe share a moment that transcends the cacophony of war. The stars in their eyes, united in a language only they understand, reflect the constellations of a bond that defies the trials of the galaxy.

Avalon pulls back slightly, her teary eyes meeting Poe's gaze. The unspoken understanding between them is a force that surpasses the turmoil of the outside world. The stars in their eyes, though still marked by recent tribulations, shine with the brilliance of unyielding friendship.

Poe smiles, a tender expression that communicates more than words ever could.

And in that moment, with the echoes of victory reverberating through the base, Avalon finds solace in the arms of her platonic soulmate. The stars in her eyes, though touched by the shadows of loss, regain a glimmer of resilience—a promise that even in the darkest corners of the galaxy, the light of friendship will endure.

Avalon's tears, once held back by the stoic resolve she carried through the battlefield, now flow freely in the warmth of Poe's embrace. The stars in her eyes, still reflecting the recent trials, glitter with a mixture of relief and lingering sorrow.

Poe, with a tenderness that transcends words, holds her close. He understands the weight she carries, the toll of loss etched into the lines of her weary face. The stars in his eyes, bright with empathy, mirror the constellations of their shared experiences.

"You did great out there," Poe whispers, his voice a gentle reassurance against the backdrop of the lively base, "We're proud of you."

Avalon pulls back slightly, meeting Poe's gaze with a mixture of gratitude and exhaustion. The stars in her eyes, though still marked by the traces of tears, flicker with the undeniable bond between them.

"Thank you," She replies, her voice a fragile echo, "I... I just wish..."

Poe gently brushes a strand of hair from her face, his thumb wiping away a lingering tear, "I know. I wish too."

In the silence that follows, the unspoken understanding between them creates a sacred space amid the jubilant chaos of the Resistance base. The stars in their eyes, though burdened by the sorrows of war, shine with the resilient glow of friendship.

The cheers of victory echo around them, but in this intimate moment, it's as if time has slowed. Avalon looks at Poe, her platonic soulmate, and finds a sanctuary in the familiarity of his presence. The stars in her eyes, reflecting the universe within her, align with the constellations of shared laughter and unspoken camaraderie.

Amidst the swirl of cheers and jubilation, Avalon turns, instinctively seeking solace in the quiet acknowledgment of her mother's gaze. The stars in her eyes, though still flickering with the aftermath of tears, carry the weight of unspoken sorrow.

Leia, standing at a distance, meets Avalon's eyes with a knowing gaze. The stars in Leia's eyes, mirroring the celestial tapestry above, hold the depth of a mother's understanding—a silent acknowledgment of the bond that transcends words.

As Avalon turns, the space between mother and daughter becomes a canvas for the unspoken language of grief. Leia's eyes, reflecting the flickering stars of her daughter's soul, convey a compassion that spans the galaxies. The stars in her eyes, though tempered by the echoes of loss, shimmer with the resilience born of countless battles.

Avalon, with a somber smile that lingers on her lips, doesn't need to utter the words that weigh heavy on her heart. The stars in her eyes, reflecting the universe within her, convey the silent truth—the absence of a beloved presence, the void left by a father's sacrifice.

Leia, her own smile carrying the echoes of heartbreak, offers a response in kind. The stars in her eyes, witnesses to the eons of joy and sorrow, hold the luminous traces of a mother's love—a love that weathers the storms of grief and loss.

The moment stretches, a silent interlude in the midst of celebration. Avalon takes a step toward Leia, and the space between them becomes a bridge that spans the expanse of shared pain. The stars in their eyes, aligned in the constellations of familial ties, tell a story of resilience—a story that transcends the boundaries of spoken language.

In this quiet tableau, grief becomes a silent companion, threading its way through the stars in their eyes. Avalon reaches out, her hand extending toward Leia. The gesture is an unspoken plea for the comfort only a mother can provide.

Leia, understanding without the need for words, steps forward to envelop Avalon in a tender embrace. The stars in their eyes, though blurred by tears, reflect the intertwining constellations of sorrow and love.

And so, beneath the canvas of the night sky, where the stars bear witness to the vastness of the galaxy, mother and daughter find solace in the silent echoes of shared grief. The stars in their eyes, united in the language of familial love, create a constellation that transcends the boundaries of time and space—a celestial bond that endures even in the face of loss.
