I'm SO sorry that this took so long! Here's the end to the last Jedi, I'll just need to wait for the Rise of Skywalker to come out on Disney plus, so if you don't hear from this story for a while, that's why. Thank you, guys!

He couldn't just sit here, he was not going to let his brother kill her. He marched down the island to the ledge where a crashed x-wing lay. He reached out his hand, just breathed, let the force guide you, as it guided us, let it lift you, rise. Breathe in, breathe out, lift, higher, higher, rise. Let the force strengthen you, rise. Toby, the force will be with you, always. The water erupted from below the x-wing soaring into the sky, landing next to Toby. He jumped into the ship,

"Go bring her back Toby!" Luke called, he gave a firm nod as the glass lid came down over his head, Toby knew the inside of an x-wing so well, he didn't even need his sight to get this thing in the air. He flicked a few switches the x-wing hovering in the air, he turned the ship hard heading out of the atmosphere.


Dropping out of hyperspace, he could sense the unchecked rage already, his brother. Using only his senses he docked in the hanger, sprinting out before the ship even fully finished it's landing sequence. He could sense troopers looking at him, but they didn't know that he had run from his brother almost a year ago. To them, he was still a ranking officer, but now he was just a lost Jedi. He sprinted down the halls towards Snoke's throne room, he had memorized his way around this star destroyer, but he needed to hurry he could feel Rey in distress. He skidded to a halt,


Ben turned around to see his brother in the doorway, a mask with jaig eyes covering his own. Rey was currently passed out on the floor in front of a mauled Snoke. Toby obviously sensed it pushing past his brother and kneeling down next to the girl,

"Rey? Rey?! Come on, come on, please, Rey! Wake up!" Toby whipped around to face his brother, "Was this you?"

"Snoke," was all that Ben was able to get out still shocked by his brother's presence. After killing their father, and blinding his own brother, Toby would never want to come anywhere near him again. And Ben wouldn't have blamed him, he had made so many mistakes on his path of the dark side. Why did he go there in the first place? Maybe it was because his parents shipped him off when he was just a boy to become a Jedi. Maybe it was that his parents had always liked Toby more. Maybe it was because he felt closer to his Grandfather, who was long dead, more than his own living family. He felt nothing killing his father, just a heavy burden lifted off his shoulders. The constant scrutiny from his father, who never really wanted to be a father, was gone.

Han never wanted to be a dad, he was fine living his life of excitement and adventure out in the far reaches of space, living his life on the run, but Leia had wanted to children, so he was shoved into being a dad, which was never in the original plan. Well, becoming a rebel, a general, and fighting the empire wasn't either. So he was handed a small baby, Ben, and then a year later, little Toby, how was he supposed to do this? Maybe that's why Ben had fallen, maybe it was because he couldn't find solace in the light, so he found solace in the shadows. He got torn from his thoughts as the guards began charging towards them, Ben found himself back to back with his little brother, the purple blade snarling angrily, Ben ignited his red one, turning his attention to the battle. He gave a sly smile to the guards heading towards him, an electro staff came hurtling down onto his blade, which he easily deflected kicking the guard in the chest, using the force to shove the other one away.

Another guard came rushing forward, he ducked under the blade sweeping his feet under the other guard, he grabbed Toby's arm, supporting his brother on his back as he threw a kick. He caught another blade, shoving it into the ground, with his free arm, he elbowed the guard in the face, slashing his blade across his stomach. He grabbed that guard's head, shoving him into another guard sending him into the ground. He stabbed his saber down quickly disposing of him. He sensed another guard charging for him, he gracefully bent forward, grabbing the guard's arm and throwing him over his back. The whole room was smoking and burning with fire, as sweat dripped down his forehead, he drew his saber, slowly turning with the two guards who were on either side of him. He got distracted at the pained cry of his brother as he saw a Vibro blade pulling away from Toby's arm leaving a bleeding cut just below his shoulder. He heard the crack of a whip behind him, he fell into the battle slashing at the guard in front of him, catching the blade shoving it to the ground, he managed to get rid of the first one. In the chaos his saber was thrown out of his hand, as another guard came swinging wildly at him, he managed to duck out of the way, he began to try and wrestle the guard for the staff but failed, getting put into a chokehold. He struggled against the staff as it pressed further and further down on his windpipe.

"Ben!" Toby shouted, throwing his saber to his brother after having finished off the guard in front of him. Ben caught the saber in a reverse grip igniting it through the guard's face. The guard collapsing to the ground, letting Ben take a deep breath,


Toby could sense Poe's distress, the fleet, was being torn to shreds. He couldn't lose Poe too.

"The fleet. Order them to stop firing. There's still time to save the fleet." Toby said, pointing out the window. Ben didn't say anything and walked towards Rey and Snoke, "Ben?"

"It's time to let old things die." he said firmly, "Snoke, Skywalker, Rey. The Sith. The Jedi. The Rebels… let it all die." Ben started walking towards Toby. "Toby," Ben held out his hand, "I want you to join me. Together we can rule the galaxy as brothers, and bring a new order to the galaxy."

"Ben, don't do this," Toby whispered, tears springing into his glazed eyes. "Please don't continue down this path. Come back to me." he pleaded,

"No. No. You're still holding on! Let go!" he shouted angrily, "You want to know the truth about our parents? Then again you've always known. Say it." Toby stayed silent, tears streaming out from underneath his mask. "Say it," Ben said again,

"They never cared about us as they should have," Toby whispered,

"They were a princess and a smuggler. It should have ended sooner than it did. They shipped us off to become Jedi, without even a second glance. They never cared about us, and they never will. To them we're nobody." he paused, "But you're not nobody to me. Please, we can be there for each other, please Toby, join me." he offered out his hand once again. Toby looked down where he could sense the conflict that resided in Ben, he contemplated whether he should join the darkness or not. He had always felt the call, but it terrified him. If Toby joined Ben, could he still save the fleet? "Please," Ben whispered, his voice cracking. Toby slowly lifted his hand, looking like he was about to join him when he sharply called on the force calling his lightsaber back towards his hand from Ben's belt. It froze in front of him a few inches from her fingertips. Ben was on the other side, his hand out towards the saber, the two grunted as they fought for control of the saber. Toby let out a scream as he tried to get the saber to his hand as he slipped backwards from the sheer power the force, the saber holding in the middle. The saber shook as it tried to fly to both of them, the saber exploded in half throwing both of them backwards. Toby blinked a few times, his ears ringing, he scrambled to his feet, calling the two halves of the saber to his hand. He shoved them in his pocket, running over to Rey. He picked up the woman, cradling her gently in his arms. He needed to get out of here before Ben woke up.

"I'm sorry Ben," he whispered, before running out.

20 minutes later…

Toby pulled on the throttle of the falcon hard spinning it towards the three fighters that were tailing Rose, hold, hold, lock on target. He smashed his thumb down on the trigger hitting all three fighters with one shot, he patched through on the coms,

"Hey, Dameron! Did you miss me!" he shouted over the explosions and laser fire.

"Toby! You're not dead!" Poe yelled, Toby fired on another TIE that was in front of him as he pulled around for another pass.

"You can't get rid of me that easily!" He pulled around the walkers, grabbing the attention of his brother, and every TIE that littered the field. "Uncle Chewie! I'm gonna peel off the back! We have to draw them away from the speeders!" the wookie roared in approval as Toby pulled up on the throttle hard shooting into the sky. He dodged blaster fire, diving down into a chasm filled with red mineral crystals. He was flying completely on his side through the narrow passage, he lost the first few TIEs who didn't make it into the hole in the first place. Chewie yelled out at the guns scraped against the wall, "I got it, I got it!" he shouted, pulling down on the throttle, ducking out into a cave, dodging falling crystals as well as laser fire. He lost another TIE, he pushed the ship faster and faster, pulling up swiftly through a hole that was definitely too small for the falcon but he made it big enough. Toby pumped his fist as a porg cried in approval at the Jedi's recent victory.

A few minutes later…

R2 beeped at Toby while trying to track the other end of the homing beacon they had been sent with,

"They're right beneath us. They've got to be close! Keep scanning for lifeforms." Toby said he pulled around for another pass over the desolate mineral planet. Chewie roared seeing a whole ton of crystal foxes charging out of an entrance, "That's them, I can sense them." he pulled down towards the foxes. He quickly landed the falcon dashing out, he could sense the entrance was blocked, he reached out a hand.

"Rise Toby," he heard a voice whisper, a Jedi from the living force.

"Yes Master," Toby said, breathing in, out, he reached out a hand towards the entrance. He could feel the force flowing through his fingertips,


The rocks started to lift away from the entrance even the pebbles floated from the power being exhibited by the Jedi. Toby stood in the middle of it all, hand outstretched murmuring something under his breath, Poe came charging out of the tunnel towards his friend as the rocks parted like the red sea, falling as the pilot tackling Toby in a hug, knocking Toby to the ground. He happily wrapped his arms around Poe, greeting the much-needed hug. He was momentarily distracted by the rage that his brother exhibited, and then Luke. Peace and serenity passed through the force, he was gone. Into the living force. He could sense that his mother could sense her brother's passing as well, either way, they needed to go. All the rebels got up running towards the falcon, Toby the last to board. He gave one last goodbye through the force to his brother before closing the catwalk and boarding.

A few minutes later…

Toby was really ready to be done crying, but a hug from his mom just brought on all the tears he had wanted to get out all this time. He was emotionally exhausted from everything that had just happened and having his mom hug him and stroke his hair was the thing that sprung a leak in the dam that he had built in front of his emotions. He pulled the lightsaber pieces out to his mom, it was broken and shattered just the remainders of the resistance.

"How do we build a rebellion from this?" he whispered, she pressed the pieces back into his hand.

"We have everything we need," she whispered, kissing his forehead. They had hope, and rebellions are built on hope.
