Your head was pounding and as you opened your eyes everything was dark. You tried to move your body but quickly realized you were tied to something and you had a gag in your mouth.

You began to remember everything that happened. "Kriff. That woman. What was her name? Ho? No no, Lo? Bo!"

You started to squirm, trying to manage to untie yourself. Suddenly you felt stupid. You were a force user, there was no reason you couldn't undo this with the help of your ability.

You concentrated and removed the blindfold from your eyes. You blinked a few times as you adjusted to the light. It seemed like you were in some sort of makeshift cell. You were tied in a chair with chains.

The chains took more concentration to undo but you managed to unchain yourself. You relaxed a little as you removed the gag from your mouth.

"Guess I underestimated you," A familiar voice spoke as Bo-Katan came into view.

"Kriff you," You spat approaching the bars that separated you two.

"None of this would be necessary if you had just listened to the full story," She sighed as she ran a hand through her short hair.

"I don't want to hear your excuses," You wanted to reach out and choke her, and you very well could. But, you restrained yourself.

"That little green guy you keep is rather cute," She said, almost challenging you.

You used the force to choke her, you slammed her into the wall behind her. She squirmed, her hands desperately flying to her throat.

"Do you want to test me further? How dare you steal a piece of my family, let alone speak of them. What did you do to him?" You said as you dropped your grip on her throat. You bent the bars of the cell, allowing a spot for you to slip through and exit.

You heard footsteps coming, and reached for your lightsabers only to find they were missing. "Kriff," you muttered as you looked down on the woman who still rubber her throat.

"Answer me," You placed a foot on her, securing she stay put on the ground.

"HELP!" She let out a scream, your eyes went wide. You kicked her head and she immediately passed out.

You couldn't leave without your sabers and your hand to hand combat wasn't the greatest. The sound of footsteps drew nearer and you raised your hands and got ready to fight.

Two masked figures entered the room, they wore similar attire to Bo's. They had their blasters raised at you and you quickly used the force to draw them to your hands. You tossed one aside and with the other you aimed at the knocked out Bo.

"Move closer and I'll shoot. You're going to answer some questions or she gets it," You spoke confidently. You needed to show you were composed or they might take advantage of you.

"The Mandalorian, is he here?" You began. The two masked figures just stood there with their hands raises.

"Yes," One of them spoke.

"Take me to him," You stated as you picked Bo off the floor and dragged her into your arms, keeping the blaster aimed at her head.

They motioned you to follow them and led you out of the room. There was a barely lit hallway that seemed to stretch for miles, it almost seemed like a cave system. You noted the directions they took you: left, left, right, left.

They led you into a similar room as the one you had been held in. There was a large light which lit up the room well. This room was older than the one you had been, the bars holding Mando were rusted. You could see him, he was tied up in the same manner as you. Several pieces of his armor were broken off.

"Y/N?" The familiar modified voice spoke, you could see him try to break from the chains.

"You are going to release him if you want her to live," You motioned towards Bo who lay stiffly in your arms.

They nodded and pulled out a key. One of them opened the cell, and walked up to Mando to undo his chains. The other faced you and seemed to be analyzing you to see what you might do next.

You set Bo against one of the walls in the room, "One more thing, my sabers. Where are they?" You spoke to the one watching you.

The one just nodded their head towards Bo. You then noticed your sabers strapped at her waist. You felt a wave of relief as you quickly undid them and fastened them back to your own waist.

You heard a thud and snapped your head to see one of Bo's partners on the ground. Mando had managed to take the one out right after being released. You took out the next one in a solid kick to the core, pushing them back against the wall. You made sure he was knocked out when footsteps were right behind you.

You turned towards Mando who stood right behind you. His hands wrapped tightly around you, never wanting to let you go. Your eyes flooded with tears as you desperately wrapped your arms around him.

"Kriff, Y/N. I'm so sorry," He spoke softly through the modifier. His hold around you remained solid.

"I'm sorry I didn't get to you sooner," You sobbed. You hated this overwhelming feeling, you were never one to cry over something like this. But, here you were now, turned into a big softie.

He let out a chuckle at your statement, you had missed the sound, "I can't believe I made my girl all upset."

My girl. His girl. You are his, just as he is yours. You could feel yourself turn red. A sheepish smile washed over you.

"We need to get going, do you remember the way you got here?" He spoke as you looked up at him. You wondered if he was smiling like a fool, just like you were.

—Mando's POV—

She came for me. She really did it.

When I saw her again I wanted to hold her forever. I want her to feel safe and never have to worry about me again. I'm thankful for the mask that could conceal the tears that had filled my eyes. It had just been over a week since I saw her, but I never want to let her out of my sight again.

"Yeah follow me," She said confidently, as she stepped over the person she had knocked out on the floor. Now that is my kind of woman.

I didn't realize she had taken my hand in hers and was dragging me along. She could take me anywhere and I would follow without another thought.

"Are you hurt?" She questioned as she continued to walk, slowing down a bit to look back at me. How beautiful she looks with that wild look in her eyes.

"Nothing I won't recover from," I told her reassuringly, even though I knew that might not be true.

The cut was pretty deep, and it was surely infected by now. I let my guard down for a second and got ambushed. Every step was increasingly painful but with her hand in mine, everything would be alright.
