Rey’s mind was more than a little blown. She’d found that the thing that Ren had used to try and gain access to her memories had also allowed her to ‘hear’ the other Force users in the temple. And she’d nearly come apart at the seams when she’d ‘heard’ Obi Wan Kenobi. A brief and very tiring telepathic conversation had resulted in organising a training session with someone she’d hardly believed existed before she came here.

"I don't know how I knew. I just knew that if he got what he wanted people I cared about would get hurt and I had to try and block him when he got into my mind, I figured I'd die, but I had people who needed me to be stronger than him." Rey replied.

"I see. So, he was in your mind first." Obi-Wan thought quickly, and then decided to try something that would seem to be on a complete tangent to their current discussion.

"Watch me carefully, please. Use all your senses, not just your sight." There was a small pile of stones just off to the side of where they were, and Obi-Wan reached out with his hand. Using very deliberate moves both within the Force and with his hand, he gestured towards one of the bigger stones and lifted it in the air, perhaps a foot off the ground. Then he slowly lowered his hand and the stone gradually came to rest on the grass below it. "Copy what you saw me do."

Rey tried to repeat his actions while she watched the stones, but failed, sweat standing on her forehead.

She thought back, remembering the feelings that had triggered her and shut her eyes, bringing thoughts of Finn to the front of her mind. The stone moved, but was nowhere near as controlled as Obi Wan.

"Very good," he congratulated her, no matter that it had taken her some time.

"You blocked Ren but only once you knew what he was doing in the first place. You copied my actions when I asked you to, but I'm wondering if it's because you saw what I was doing within the Force. If I show you how I meditate, can you copy that as well?" he said, thinking out loud for Rey's benefit, before calling the stone to his hand.

"I think so...I'm not clever enough am I? i'm a battler and a scavenger, not a thinker," Rey replied.

"Stop running yourself down, Rey," Obi-Wan said, speaking firmly. "You have survived for how long on your own? Learning all manner of things about all different types of ships and droids. How many languages do you speak? Finn tells me you're an excellent pilot, and I can tell you now, people who aren't clever enough do not become excellent pilots, or work out how to shoot ships out of the sky when their guns are jammed. You are capable, you are intelligent, you clearly know how to think on your feet, and you need to start believing in yourself. Finn does. I'm sure Poe does. I wouldn't have offered to train you if I didn't believe in you. Most importantly, the Force itself believes in you. And yet you have repeatedly told me in the space of less than half an hour that you're not clever enough, you're not good enough and even your own family didn't want you."

He reached over and put his hand on her knee as he spoke. "A very wise Jedi once said that there are no accidents. We are where we are because the Force wills it. You are here because the Force decided it. The Force thinks you are clever enough, you are good enough, and if you could only see the potential you carry within you, you would understand why the Force wants you. Stop doubting yourself and take your first steps on the path to becoming the Jedi you are destined to become."

"I'll do whatever it takes. Ren used The Force against people, but I don't believe that's what it's for. I hope something in Keylo Ren has changed, because he's here, and he hasn't come looking for me," Rey replied.

"I don't want to hurt anyone. I do want to be able protect people if I need to and to learn. And five and half years. And three languages well, two passable and one I can just swear in," Rey replied.

"I love to fly, I'm good enough in a fight and I had to think on my feet to live. I really want you to train me, Master."
