An Extra’s POV

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting hues of orange and pink across the sky, the once magnificent capital city lay in ruins.

The towering spires that once touched the clouds now crumbled, their jagged edges silhouetted against the fading light. Smoke still billowed from the wreckage, carrying the acrid scent of destruction through the air.

Amidst the devastation, a figure descended from the sky with a grace that belied the exhaustion evident in every movement.

Rey, his naked figure cloaked in nothing but remnants of his energy, descended slowly, almost as if defying gravity itself.

His breath came in ragged gasps, each step a struggle against the weight of fatigue and desperation.

He tried to cling onto consciousness, all to no avail.

However, as he neared the earth, his eyes about to close shut forever, he felt a presence suddenly envelope him, and two warm hands suddenly grabbed a hold of him.

As the hands held him, the rest of his descent was smooth. He felt no pressure, no weight, and no pain. It was a sweet flow that caused him to smile a little.

After all, he knew who had just showed up.

"Good job, Master." The voice echoed in his ears, and as Rey managed to pry his eyes open, he caught a blurry glimpse of the red-haired man in the suit.

"Ater…" He murmured, unable to finish the rest of his words.

Thankfully, thanks to their bond, there was no need for unnecessary conversation between the two of them.

"I understand, Master." The fleeting voice sounded gentle and understanding.

Rey's smile deepened as he finally shut his eyes, feeling himself slip into the inevitable darkness that awaited him.

"... Leave the rest to me."

After that, everything went blank for Rey.
