[Neither of them had been aware of who they were assigned to work with until the mission began. Rey was assigned to protect the bait for her quick reflexes and her growing knowledge of the forest. Ren presumably assigned to bait duty for his strength and surety.

As much as she did not trust him or want to work with him, it was too late to argue teams, with Liam already on the scent.]

Maybe. It would probably be easier to just kill some of the people who come through the portal, too. Doesn't mean it's the right answer.

[As much as Rey wants to argue with him, he's not entirely wrong. It would be easier. But easy wasn't really something she had ever had, and she didn't mind the trek to lure it away. She keeps a firm grip on her staff, the blaster she barely knows how to handle tucked into her belt at the side, for emergencies only. She was perfectly capable of defending them with the weapon she knew.

She glances at Ren again and then goes back to keeping an eye on their surroundings.]

We're all stuck here. We can't go around picking fights with everything that inconveniences us.
