As tall as Ben was, if Rey had to carry him (over her shoulder, bridal style, or any way that would allow them to move faster) she would. She wasn't sure if it the bond was there between them, but she felt an echo of it. Her ribs ached, and there was a faint stabbing faint in her leg. Something else to consider, later, when they weren't in a place that was going to fall in on itself.
Heart beating hard in her chest, they hobbled across the way, trying to get to her ship. The ground shook again once they were close enough. The door hissed as it opened, allowing both of them to hop into the cockpit of a Resistance ship. Everything from there seemed like a blur. Both of them barely making inside, with Rey taking control as pilot. The engines roaring to life and the sudden rush of taking off.
She could see hundreds--seemingly thousands of ships in the air--all of them fighting with the Resistance. A sight to see, but one she could reflect on later. The world beneath them crumbled to dust as they flew past the atmosphere and into space.

Now, they could breathe.
