This Is Really Good Actually. Please Don’t Hate On Me For Shipping Reylo! I Know People Are Really

This is really good actually. Please don’t hate on me for shipping Reylo! I know people are really mad about it but for the life of me I can’t figure out why.

The Trial of Ben Solo

An Alternative Ending of The Rise of Skywalker

Ben Solo survives after giving Rey his life force because Leia gives up her own life to save her only son, becoming a Force Ghost. Injured, but determined to face his past, Ben convinces Rey to return with him to the Resistance camp where they immediately place him in captivity to await trial. A six-part mini-series.

“This is crazy!” Poe said running his fingers through his tangled hair. He glanced back and forth between a still stunned Finn and regretful Rey. They were sitting in the now-empty command area of the Resistance camp. Rey didn’t like seeing it empty, but there was no urgent need for command center when the war was over. 

It had been a few days since their victory. People celebrated for nonstop for three days, but now reality had started to settle back in. The people who could return, return to their old lives before the war, while the others, like them, waiting for their orders from the newly reformed New Republic, or how Poe like to call them the New New Republic. 

“I know,” Rey said apologetically. 

“No!” Poe said turning to face her flailing his arms around. “No, this is a new level of crazy. This is a young Poe Dameron level of crazy. Rey, you can’t be seriously asking us to do this!”

“I know Poe.” Rey stood to face him. “I know I’m asking a lot. But-” She paused looking for the right words to say.  “I just don’t know what else I should do.” BB-8 rolled to her side and gave her a few sympathy beeps. 

“Leave him to rot,” Finn mumbled under his breath. He hadn’t looked her in the eyes once in the past few days. Rey felt the pit her gut deepen. She knew he was disappointed in her. She knew she had hurt him when she had shown up with Ben a few days earlier and begged for them to give Ben sanctuary. 

Rey had wanted Ben to run. She told him that she would tell the others that he died helping her. That she would meet up with him later a few days later once everything had settled, and that they could start a new life together somewhere far away. It wouldn’t be that hard. While many spoke of her brave deeds and the infamously horrible Kylo Ren, very few people actually knew the look of their faces.  

But even when she first thought of the plan, she knew it was foolish. She knew in her heart she could never abandon Finn or Poe. Besides, the Republic has become just as apart of her life as they have. She needed to see this page of history through until the end andBen had felt the same way.

“No,” Ben had mumbled weakly. “I’m done running. I need to go home. I need to see my mother.” This was of course before they knew General Organa’s body had become one with the Force. When they were told suddenly the mysteries of those moments were made clear.
