The resurrection of Star Wars with The Force Awakens has resulted in a massive amount of theories and rumors speculating wildly about possible plot twists in the much awaited next episode in the new trilogy, Star Wars: Episode VIII.

Well, there's a new rumored scene between Luke and Rey that could potentially change the game for the entire franchise.

As reported by Comicbookmovie, the new rumor comes from from anonymous source who goes by the name Stormtrooper Larry. The scene involves a vision which Luke shows Rey, and it involves what the Jedi Master learned of the Jedi order while he was living in exile.

The rumor goes:

In the scene Luke tells Rey that the Jedi Council became "arrogant" and that they were hiding a "secret," which led to their demise. The old Jedi master takes Rey's hand and shows her a glimpse into the past. They see two children playing near a tree on an alien planet. The boy noticed that he had greater strength and intuition when he was closer to this tree. The girl noticed that the tree also made her brother increasingly angry. One day an argument breaks out between the children, and the boy kills the girl. The boy touches the tree and is "transformed,". He kills his parents and leaves the planet. Meanwhile the girl is revealed to be alive, transformed by the tree as well, using her power to start the first Jedi Order.

The girl explains how The Force can be used for both good and evil. She tells her followers that one day she would return as either a boy or a girl, and that they should train this child. Luke tells Rey that the Jedi Order had been searching for The One (reincarnation of the original founder of the Jedi) for a millennia. When they found Anakin Skywalker and thought that he would bring balance to The Force, the Jedi were "deceived" and the Clone Wars were the result. The scene also shows Rey's parents, and Luke is not the father. Luke tells her how she was identified as strong with The Force, and how she was supposed to begin her training, but never reached her destination for an unknown reason. In the scene Luke gives Rey a choice, and she has till sunset to make it.

As awesome as this new rumor sounds, I for one think it's too convenient. Rey and Kylo Ren are the new main characters of the franchise and they just fittingly assumes the role of the the people who started the entire fight between the Light and the Dark side? Personally, I think last week's "leak" that allegedly reveals Rey's true origins, which is said to be linked to the Jedi and the Force, sounds more convincing. In any case, if this is true, it would be a major game changer being that it reveals the true origins of the Jedi Order.

We won't know if this rumored scene is true or not until Star Wars: Episode VIII hits theaters on December 15, 2017. I'm expecting more rumors popping up in the next couple of months.
