Author's Note: Since I posted the ending chapter, I have received some criticism in the reviews, and I completely understand where you are coming from, so I have decided to go back to this story and edit the parts where there are clearly errors or details missed, and repost the whole story again. I do not own Star Wars.

From the Volcano, Erupts the Fire

Since the Resistance escaped the clutches of the First Order on Crait, Rey and Kylo hadn't spoken a word to each other. Despite Snoke's claim that he initiated the bond between them, it had not severed upon his death, leading Rey to believe that their fight after Kylo killed Han, was the beginning. Whatever this bond they had was, it allowed them to see each other, only each other, even sense the others emotions and touch one another, but nothing further. It was a surprisingly intimate relationship, considering they were enemies of completely different sides of the force.

Since Crait, over 2 months ago, whenever the bond made itself known, they would only look at each other, sometimes even train together. The first time, occurred at their worst moment. Rey, crying in her sleep. Kylo had just awoken from a dream that was more of a memory, the memory of Rey's rejection. It made him so heartbroken, that it tipped his rage over the edge. He was punching the mirror in his quarters, when he felt an overwhelming feeling of sadness, with quiet sobs being heard from the corner of the room. He froze half way through advancing his fist towards the mirror. As soon as he saw her, he recoiled at the sight before him.

His Rey. No, just Rey. She was not his. She had rejected him. She left him.

She was having a nightmare. Sobbing, begging for mercy. She looked so vulnerable, so scared, showing the fear she normally, bravely kept controlled. He wanted to comfort her, to hold her, but he still felt his anger, only drowned by Rey's sadness leaking through the bond this time. He watched her for what felt like an hour, but was only several minutes. As the sobs started to become mute, he looked at her chest and saw the last shudder run through her body. Sighing, as he returned his eyes to hers, he met her brown orbs. She panted in the aftermath of her nightmare before closing her mouth tightly, standing up, and her eyes never leaving his. They stood like that for a few moments, and then the connection dissolved. Other encounters were short, lasting only a few seconds for the other to feel their emotions. Kylo saw her building a new lightsaber, still blue, but he found that it suited her. How she had learnt how was beyond him, but all those years scavenging on Jakku, must have allowed her to look at Luke's lightsaber and copy what she found, as well as allow her to find a crystal. The rebels must have helped her. The General.At the thought of her, Kylo hissed and pushed her to the back of his mind. She was nothing.

When they ended up becoming longer, they started to train together, still never saying a word. There was still anger, heart-breaking sadness and betrayal, but when they trained together, it was always out of admiration or determination.

The present was unfortunately one of those rare occasions when they were fighting through the bond out of rage. This cliff was Rey's secluded spot. She could look out upon the ocean of the planet, which the Resistance were hiding upon temporarily, while meditating or training with her lightsaber. He had appeared while she was meditating. She felt him before she saw him, for the rage running through him was deafening within her mind. She just stayed silent, trying to focus on her meditation.

With the strength of his anger in her mind, she could not focus. With a sigh, she turned around while still seated. The sight should have scared her, invoked a strong sense of fear. Kylo stood there, fists clenched so hard that his knuckles were white and his nails were breaking the skin on his palms. As her eyes travelled up his form, she noticed his feet were placed in preparation for a fight, with his back slightly hunched in a predatory way. Instinctively, her hand travelled to her hip, placing it on her lightsaber. Finally, her eyes reached the aggressive scowl on his face, the rage visible in his eyes even more so than his body.

"Why could you not have just joined me?"

The harshness in his voice made Rey hold her breath. It did not sound like his voice. Despite the fact that they were enemies, and had tried to kill each other, she loved his voice. When she didn't answer him, his anger erupted. Red evolved in Rey's vision, yet she could not look away from his eyes. The buzz of the red lightsaber, made Rey pull her own out of her belt, but she did not activate it.

"Fight me!"

His scream made Rey finally activate her lightsaber, the buzz of the two mixing together in to its own composition, one they knew well from their training together. He lunged at her clumsily, allowing Rey to easily predict his movements and dodge, only making him even more furious. Upon the next attack, Rey blocked with her lightsaber, the clash of the two making audible crackles of energy. For the next few minutes they fought, clashes of red and blue. Eventually, the anger started to subside, being replaced by admiration and pride. Their sabers clashed, creating an 'X' between their bodies. They froze then, staring at each other. They were so close, that within three inches their lips could be touching. Rey shook her head at this thought, he was- is the enemy.

"You shouldn't deny your feelings, Rey, I know you feel it too" he whispered. So there they stood, for the next minute, lost in each other's eyes, crackles of blue and red between them.

Only the pressing of a button on each and they would be together. "Rey!" At the sound of that voice, Rey felt the his anger return, followed by jealousy that someone had stolen her attention. "Rey, where are you?" The voice shouted again. "Finn?" Rey shouted in return. The instant the name left her mouth, Kylo tensed beside her, his jealous heightening through the bond. Finn was running towards her from the trees, she could see in her peripheral vision that Kylo's eyes never left her, but his hands clenched in to fists. Rey's confusion quickly turned to panic, as she realised that Finn was running towards her, with Rose and some other Resistance members in tow. Some of their transport ships took off, but they hadn't managed to repair them all since arriving to this planet only a few days ago. They had found them abandoned on another planet in the Outer Rim, some were damaged beyond repair, but Rey and Poe had managed to find a five, small ones that just needed a few repairs to be up in the air. Only three were in the air now.

Usually the bond would have dissolved by now, but yet he still remained by her side, his concern starting to leak through.

"Rey, run!" Finn shouted.

Rey then realised. She had been so focused on Kylo, she hadn't realised that the volcano on the island had begun erupting. They had known that the planet had active volcanoes, thanks to C3-PO's long lecture about what could happen. However, as the rebels, they didn't have many options. They needed to temporarily stop somewhere to try and find some more food and supplies.

Feeling her fear through the bond, Kylo deactivated his lightsaber and placed a hand on her shoulder to return her attention back to him.

When she met his eyes, she didn't see Kylo, she saw Ben. She saw concern and worry. No, she must be mistaken. Looking back towards the shouts, the volcano exploded, deafening her momentarily. The animals on the island began to follow the Resistance members, running away from the explosion and incoming molten rock falling from the sky.

"Finn!" Rey screamed as he was knocked off of his feet after nearly being hit by the falling debris. Rose rushed to his side, as Rey ran towards him. Her concern for her friend was the priority, while the bond had finally dissolved. Dodging the animals that were running towards her, Rey eventually reached Finn, helping Rose get him back on his feet. Once he regained his balance they continued running towards the cliff, with no transporter ships to escape they island, they would have to swim.

Rey was thrown off of her feet by something large. As she landed on her back, the pain in her body was forgotten as the she hit her head, causing ringing in her ears. She could feel someone shaking her, trying to get her to regain consciousness, but she couldn't hear them, all she could hear was muffled shouting. As she opened her eyes slowly and blinked, she expected to see Finn or Rose, but she saw Kylo, and as she looked in to his eyes she realised, she wasn't seeing Kylo, she was seeing Ben. As her mind started to calm itself, she felt the bonds presence, the overwhelming worry, concern and…fear?

"Rey? Rey, are you okay? Rey, what's happening?"

Once again the adrenaline kicked in as she rose shakily to her feet, his arm supporting her. "Volcano" was all she said. He nodded in understanding at her panic, running alongside her, despite only being able to see her and nothing else. Ahead of her, she saw Rose jump from the cliff, while Finn hesitated, looking back for her.

"Finn, jump, I'll be fine!" She shouted.

"Rey, what's happening?" Ben asked her somewhat calmly. She looked at him, opening her mouth to reply, when one of the creatures crashed in to her. The force of the impact made her crash in to Ben. Instinctively, he wrapped an arm around her waist, so that when they landed he rotated her so that he could protect her. Once the pain subsided to make way for adrenaline, she opens her eyes only to find herself looking in to his. She likes his look of concern and worry for her; it makes him look more like Ben than she has ever seen. Reaching up to touch his scar, he slightly flinches, for she is the one who put it there.

Another explosion from the volcano brings her back to her senses, causing her hand to retreat from its intended action, untangle herself from his hold and rise. Once he follows, they look at each other for a moment before they continue running, reaching the cliff edge in only a matter of seconds. The Resistance members and the islands inhabitants either jumped or fell from the cliff edge and were swimming away towards the smaller islands that surrounded this one.

Hesitating for moment, Rey turned to Ben. She took his hand in her own, she felt the tingle and pleasant burn she felt when she had touched his hand back when she was with Luke. Feeling her fear through their bond, he squeezed her hand once.

"Be-'' another creature collided with her, knocking her off the cliff edge and in to the water.

"REY!"
