The second Forces of Destiny one-shot in January stars Rey. It expands on the scene in The Force Awakens when Rey rescues BB-8 from Teedo as well as the season 1, episode 1 Forces of Destiny short Sands of Jakku. In the tale, Rey and BB-8 have a few more adventures together before she delivers him to Niima Outpost. While the story does not reveal more about Rey's character than the movie, it does emphasize Rey's strengths are her optimism and empathy. One of the more poignant scenes is when her and BB-8 spend the night in the home she made out of the fallen AT-AT and she awakes screaming from a nightmare about being abandoned on Jakku. One can only imagine this is a nightmare that Rey is very familiar with, yet she remains hopeful that those who left her will eventually return. Rey is a hero because, despite the adversity in her life, she possess the propensity to do good.
