FEELING WARMTH around her is how Amara woke up. She was cuddled up against Poe, who was sleeping soundly. She had ended up falling asleep in his quarters. She had listened to him talk about being captured, despite Poe knowing that Amara witnessed everything through her weird force vision thing. She listened and assured him he was alright. He went on about his escape.

There was a defected Stormtrooper.

He saved Poe's life by breaking him out. The two hijacked a TIE fighter and crashed landed on Jakku. Poe wasn't sure what happened the to trooper, he hoped he was alive but there is a possibly of him being dead. Amara had assured Poe that his new friend was alive. Amara rolled over and was now facing the sleeping Poe. He looked so comfortable, so content. Her eyes went from looking at his face to his wound again. Every time she saw it, it made her think of him. Her brother. How could someone so sweet turn into this, into a monster.

Amara lightly stroked Poe's face, which seemed to be a bad idea. He started to stir awake. He groans a little and then his eyes started to flutter open. His first sight being Amara. Amara's face flustered pink.

"Uh- hi," Amara says awkwardly smiling at him.

Poe rolled on his back and stretched, "Did we fall asleep?" He asks.

Amara nods, "I guess we both needed the rest." She says.

"I was captured by the First Order," He says with a small grin, "What was your excuse?"

Amara saw him look at her with a jokingly grin on his face. Amara didn't smile at his response, instead she moved to lay a little closer to him.

"You were captured," Amara says, "After I saw all of that, I just wouldn't go back to sleep."

Poe turns his head to look at her, "Amara,"

Amara looks at him, "I was far too worried and spooked." She says.

Poe pulled her closer to him to rest on his chest as a way of comforting her. It was the least he could do for her. He was being comforted by her after everything, and Amara is dealing with this new thing about herself.

"I know Vira probably knows all about this," Poe says, "Your issues or whatever but uh- um if you ever want to talk about it-,"

Amara looks up at him, "I will, Poe." She says.

{THE FORCE AWAKENS}

HAN SOLO being uttered by 3PO. Just the mere mention of it made Leia lost for words. Everyone was in the command room. Amara was standing next to her mom, looking from 3PO and to her mom. She hadn't seen her father in years. Would he even recognize her? Has he missed her? Amara's eyes drift to Leia, her mother. How does her mom do it? Keep her composure so hard to read? Is it some sort of Jedi thing or has it become natural to the General? Has she learned to do this over her time being involved in war?

Leia makes a small smile, "Guess this means we have to go bail him out," She says and turns to a commander, "Alert the fleet and prepare the ships. Have the pilots set their course to Takodana."

Leia began to leave after saying that and so did Amara. Both women went in different directions, Leia was seemingly going to fetch something before leaving whereas Amara ran in the direction of the hangar. She needed to see him before he leaves. Vira was accidentally shoved in the hall by her.

"Mar-!" Vira yells.

Amara turns her head back briefly, "Sorry Vee-!"

Vira shakes her head and says, "That girl has suddenly become boy crazy." She shakes her head.

Once Amara reached the outside, she sprinted pass pilots in their flight suits getting ready to get in the X-Wings. Amara's eyes scanned for Poe and then spotted him, flight suit and all.

"Poe-!" Amara yells.

Poe stops and turns around.

Amara ran over to him and had to stop a few feet from him. She needed to quickly catch her breathe and then looks up at him.

"Did you run all the way here, Captain Solo?" He asks with a grin, "Just to see me off?"

Amara nods, "Yes, Commander Dameron." She says, "I just- I wanted to see you off in hopes it'll put my mind at ease."

Poe's eyes narrowed, "How so?"

"Last time you left, you didn't say goodbye and then you were missing." Amara says, "Maybe- Maybe this time, seeing you off will bring you good luck."

Poe could help but smile at her weird logic. He reached forward and pulled her into a hug. He held her with one hand resting on the back of her neck and the other above her waist.

"I know it's hard to make promises in war," Poe says, "But I'll always try to come back, because how less will you survive without me?"

Poe then gets shoved by Amara. She looks at him and sees him laughing at her.

"What? You couldn't sleep properly while I was away," He teases.

Amara gives him a look, "Oh ha ha, use my concern against me." She says.

Poe grins at her and placed his hand on top of her head, "I promise as long as I'm still breathing, I'm coming back."

Amara smiles, "You better."

Poe looks at her seriously, "You also better come back safe." He says.

He knew with Han Solo being involved that Amara was going to fight tooth and nail to go to Takodana.

Amara nods, "I will."

With that said, Amara and Poe separated. His hand leaving her head and going in the direction of his X-Wing's latter. Amara turning to go find her mother's transport, because she knew her mother wanted her to come with them.

{THE FORCE AWAKENS}

ONLY SILENCE as they traveled to Takodana. It was so quiet no one dared to speak. Everyone was sitting. Amara was sitting next to her mother, who had a radio in front of her. Next to Leia was Lieutenant Connix and then 3PO. The radio was hooked up to the same frequency as the starfighters. There was some chatter from it, from the scouts sent ahead. But nothing since, which is now at radio silence. After what feels like forever, there is crackling through the radio. This caused the three women in the transport to shift their attention to the radio.

"Black Leader to base," Poe's voice says through the silence, "Do you copy?"

General Organa clears her throat and says through the transmitter, "Go ahead, Poe. We copy."

"General we're picking up scans of First Order ships on Takodana," Poe says, "Several TIE fighters and transport ships. Do we have permission to engage in combat?"

Leia nods, "Yes." She says without hesitation, "But it is imperative that the First Order does not reach BB-8 before we do. Use whatever force you deem necessary, Commander."

"This should be fun," Poe lightly chuckles.

There was more radio chatter from Poe, which was him connecting to the other squadrons he led.

Amara looks at her mom. She sees the worry on her face. She was worried about dad. Amara reached over and held her mom's hand. Leia looks at her.

"He'll be okay," Amara says.

Leia glanced at her daughter, "I'm not worried about him. I mean he is reckless and what not, but Chewie will keep him safe."

Amara couldn't help but smile. Chewie. She remembered climbing on him as a kid. She remembered wanting to braid his fur. Also remembered claiming Chewie was her pet, despite being a child and not knowing better.

"General Organa," The transport captain gains their attention, "We're going to be dropping out of hyperspace on Takodana."

Leia nods and then says into the transmitter, "You hear that Poe?"

"Yes, sir." Poe replies, "We'll make sure you have a clear landing spot."

And just like the captain said. They were out of hyperspace and onto Takodana. Amara leaned to the window and saw Resistance starships soaring over the water. She saw smoke in the distance as well as TIE fighters. Amara sees Poe's squadron fly off, barely hearing his voice because she was too caught up in everything. Amara is brought back to reality when the ship shakes a little, and then an X-Wing firing down the TIE fighter trying to take down their transport. Like Poe had said, his team managed to clear a decent pathway for their landing. It was a little rocky but manageable.

"See you on the base, General," Poe's final transmission before they left the transport.

Amara followed her mother out of her seat. She watched as the doors of the transport lower, revealing three figures just outside the door. There was a boy, no man not much older than Amara. Then there was Chewie.

Amara's eyes widen. There stood Han Solo. Chaos still happening around them, still soldiers on the ground, just barely. But for a brief moment, everything felt slowed down for Amara. This had been the first time in maybe five or six years since she last saw her father. Amara saw a trooper pointing his blaster at her father, Chewie, BB-8, and this stranger.

"Get down-!" Amara yells reaching for her blaster.

Amara jumped out of the ship, without a second thought. She ran over to her father and instead of pointing and firing her blaster at the trooper, she extended her arm forward and the trooper was sent flying back. Amara lowered her arm and slowly looked at her hand. Her gaze moved from her hand to her father standing next to her, looking at her.

"Hi, dad." Amara says.

Han had a stunned expression on his face. Not just because of what he witnessed from his daughter but just seeing her. He turned away from Amara and saw his wife. Han opens his mouth to say something but then C-3PO inserts his head into the situation by stepping in front of Leia.

"Goodness! Han Solo! It is, I, C-3PO. You probbaly don't recognize me, because of the red arm." 3PO says and turns to Leia, "Look who it is! Did you see who?"

3PO noticed the look Leia was giving him and then looked to Amara to see a very similar look on her face. The droid took it upon himself to walk away, Chewie followed after him onto the transport with the stranger tagging along, but not before giving Leia a hug. Amara felt a nudge on her leg, she looked down to see BB-8. A small smile escaped her lips as she knelt down to the droid.

"BB," Amara says.

BB-8 beeps at her briefly before rolling off in the direction of Chewie, 3-PO, and the stranger. Amara glanced from the droid to her parents.

"You changed your hair," Han says to Leia.

Leia gives a small smile, "Same jacket."

Han shakes his head, "No, new jacket."

Amara moved from where she stood, which was next to her father to next to her mother. Han looking at her, it was painful. Last time he saw her she was still his little girl and now she was a woman.

Han looks from Amara to Leia, "I saw him. Leia," He glanced at Amara.

"You saw my brother?" Amara asks.

Han gives her a confused look, "Wha-?"

"I already know, dad." Amara says.

Leia frowns at Han's news, "He was here?"

Han nods, "Yes. He was here."

Amara looks from her mom to her dad before turning and heading into the transport. She knew they needed to talk, privately. She steps onto the transport and sees BB roll back over to her, she knelt down and began to pat his head.

"Don't worry," She says, "You'll be reunited soon."

Amara stands up and sees Chewie. The big guy is still taller than her, but he is no mere giant as she remembered. A big smile appeared on her face.

"Chewie," Amara embraced him.

Chewie growled at her as they part from the hug. Amara had a bigger smile on her face as she looks at him.

"It's good to see you too," Amara says.

Her eyes dart to the stranger. Amara look at him, he was frowning. Upset. Amara let go of Chewie and walked over to him. Amara brushed some hair behind her ear.

"Hi, I don't believe we know each other." Amara studied the jacket, "But yet you're wearing my friend's jacket."

That is when the man looked at her, "Y- You know Poe Dameron?"

Amara nods, "Yeah. How do you know him?"

"My name is Finn," He says, "I- I- We escaped together from a Starcruiser.

Amara gives him a smile, "You saved my friend. Thank you."

Finn looks at her in shock, "He's- He's alive?"

Amara nods.

Amara moved to the door to see how long it was taking for her parents, noticing Chewie was back outside. It seems his parents were going to ride back to the base in different ships. What else is new.

"Wait," Finn says.

Amara turns to him, "Yeah?"

"You know my name but I don't know yours," Finn says.

Amara gives a small grin, "That's easy, I'm Amara Solo."

Amara turns her gaze from Finn to her mother. Leia turns to her daughter and motions for her to come back outside. Amara stepped out of the transport and steps down next to her mother. Han had his hands on his hips and looks at her.

"So what was that just a moment ago?" Han asks.

Leia looks at him, "Han,"

Amara looks at her dad, "Something something whatever Force thing." She shrugs her shoulders.

"You think this is funny?" Han asks as he turns to his wife, "Don't you remember what happened to our son?"

"Han," Leia says, "I may be nervous about this but I trust Amara."

Amara crossed her arms on her chest, "Dad," She says, "I'm not a child."

"Neither was your brother." Han says.

Han then exhales and shakes his head, as he shakes his head he ran hand over his face. He sighs and then looks at her.

"I'm sorry," He says, "There is just a lot going on."

Amara nods frowning, "We know." She says.

Han felt Chewie nudge him and growl at him. Han looks at the big guy and then to his daughter. He steps forward and placed his hands on her shoulders looking at her.

"Look how much you've grown up," Han says as he placed one hand cupping her cheek, "My beautiful daughter."

Amara looks at her dad with a small smile, "It's good to see you too, dad."
