I was trying to make it seem as if Rey and the others were scared of Kylo so they run from him without confrontation, boosting Kylos intimidation and lowering Reys Mary Sue feel.

In my trilogy, Rey doesn’t actually fight Kylo until the DSII scene. I reduced TFA fight to Kylo owning Rey but Rey swinging one lucky strike to give him a scar. I wanted it to feel that Kylo was closing in without actually landing or getting out of his ship. This way it feels like the others are being pinned in with the whisper coming in from one side and the TIEs coming in from the other. There is some more footage to play with but if I stretch it any longer Kylos TIE would seem like a standard horror movie where the monster seems closer in one shot but is actually still far away. It was a tough all to make but I feel it adds to the chase this way.
