Chapter V: Fate's Way Of Help•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
•• ━━━━━ ••●•• ━━━━━ ••
The Mandalorian and the girl make their way to the Razor Crest in silence. It engulfs them like light fog. The silence couldn't be described as tense; it's more of an awkward silence as none of them know what to say.
A relieved sigh passes the warrior's lips as his beloved ship falls into his line of sight. The girl -Danica, he reminds himself- will probably fall asleep before they even leave Ossus' atmosphere and stay like that until they reach Nevarro, which means that Mando will be able to bask in the peace and quiet of his cockpit.
The Mandalorian pushes a button on the panel that's attached to his forearm. The ramp of the Razor Crest, that's only a few meters away from them now, opens with a hiss. The man doesn't hesitate as he walks up the ramp in contrast to the girl who looks up at it with some concern in her eyes.
Even though she knows that entering a stranger's ship is something that she really shouldn't do she has no bad feeling about the whole situation. No otherworldly feeling that tells her to run away from the danger even though there probably should be one. At the same time it's not like she can do anything else. It seems like she has family somewhere that she has to find, that's everything she knows. Oh, and her name. Danica. She goes over it a few times in her head, deciding that the name feels right.
Danica makes the decision to follow her feeling instead of her brain with this one. She makes the first step onto the metal, following the strange man with the armour. Then another one. Slowly she enters the ship, not paying the man waiting for her next to a ladder any thought as she walks into this new part of her life.
Mando, who is waiting for the girl, thought that leaving her alone in the belly of his ship would probably scare her, which leads to him watching her walk up the ramp hesitantly.
She's scared, he observes. Of course she is scared. She just woke up with no memory and is now entering the ship of a man she doesn't know who is completely covered by armour on top of that and won't take off his helmet.
As the girl arrives on the top of the ramp, finally entering the Razor Crest she looks at Mando expectedly, as if she is waiting for him to say something.
Kriff, she probably is, it shoots trough the man's mind.
"Uhm... You can come to the cockpit with me while we start. After that I should probably check your medical state", he states, even though it sounds more like a suggestion than anything else.
