This Star Wars: Episode VIII Leak Might Have Just Revealed Rey's Origin

This rumoured plot leak for Star Wars: Episode VIII might have just unveiled a bit more background into Rey's past. 

Warning: Possible MAJOR spoilers ahead!


According to Stormtrooper Larry (a source that has been leaking several pictures and info from the production set of the film), some part of the script has been leaked online. The script contains a dialogue wherein Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Yoda (who is rumoured to make an appearance on Rogue One) are discussing about a vision regarding the history of the Jedi Order.
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 (a 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.
The said leaked script can be seen below:


Now before you jump into any conclusion that this report is fake, you should take into consideration that there's some info in the script which matches some info we already know that will be in the next film. One such example, is the massive tree that was seen on the "Ach-to" set (refer to the image below), which matches with the description of the vision that experienced by Luke and Rey. Luke also mentions that Rey has "until sunset" to decode. This is also in line with the rumoured attack from the Knights Of Ren after dark, as described in a previous report. 


If this report is true, then we will see some pretty crazy revelation in the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VIII movie. One is that Luke is not the father of Rey. Secondly, Rey is the reincarnation of the original founder of the Jedi Order. And lastly, Luke Skywalker is not "The One". Now my head really hurts just by knowing all of these!
