Light or Dark (Mandalorian X reader)

Chapter 11: Team

"My friend, if you are receiving this transmission, that means you are alive. You might be surprised to hear this, but I am alive, too. I guess we can call it even. A lot has happened since we last saw each other. The man who hired you is still here, and his ranks of ex-Imperial guards have grown. They have imposed despotic rule over my city, which has impeded the livelihood of the Guild. We consider him an enemy, but we cannot get close enough to take him out. If you would consider one last commission, I will very much make it worth your while. You have been successful so far in staving off their hunters, but they will not stop until they have their prize. So here is my proposition. Return to Nevarro. Bring the girl and child as bait. I will arrange an exchange, and provide loyal Guild members as protection. Once we get near the client, you kill him, and we both get what we want. If you succeed, you keep the child and I will have your name cleared with the Guild, for a man of honor should not be forced to live in exile. I await your arrival with optimism."

Mando began to turn the ship around. You heard since you were at the door about to enter

"Your taking me back ?" You questioned

Mando turned around in his chair, he saw the hurt in your eyes

"Y/n-"

You ran out, you were at the bottom pacing back and forth

"I can't go back. If I do I don't think there will be anyone to save me. They'll make me go deep into the dark side-"

"Relax..."

Mando grabbed both your arms... he felt your soft skin. His breath hitched a bit.

"We're going to use you as bait... we're going to kill him. He won't get to you or the kid. You can live a peaceful planet with the kid... live a good life."

You got closer, your eyes became a bit watery

"I don't want to be anywhere else, I want to be with you. I'm sure baby wants to as well."

"I can't let that happen."

You raised your arms at the side of his helmet.

"I don't care... you say your bad, that you've done many things but the only monster here is me Mandi. Your sweet, caring, adorable, a bit clueless and serious. I care for you so much-"

Mando stopped you, he pulled your hands away but you got closer, and tilted your head a bit and laid it on his chest plate. He let your arms go, and you wrapped them around his torso, Mando

"You didn't tell me Xi'an hurt you."

"She threw a blade it hit my shoulder..."

"Just relax."

Mando did, you touched his bare hand, you closed your eyes and used your force.

"Hey- you healed me."

"Yeah I need to touch your skin for me to heal you.. I hope your fine.. but okay."

"Okay what?"

"I'll come back to Nevarro, but I'd come back completely undetected."

"What do you mean?"

" when it happens I'll explain it. "

*Sorgan*

"We're back ! For Cara !? I must see the older woman she might help me."

"Fine meet back here okay."

You made your way to her little shop, you were looking around and finally noticed her,

"Hello!"

"Ah dear I knew you'd come back."

You smiled at her

"I got new clothing for you dear please come in."

*time skip*

You were already on your way back to Razor crest when you see Cara, and Mando outside.

"Hello."

"Offspring."

*time skip*

You went down as it was almost Night time.

"KUIIL!!!!" You screamed

"Your back"

They greeted each other and entered his hut. You sat down and was looking around

"It hasn't grown much." Says Kuiil

"I think it might be a Strand-Cast."

"I don't think it was engineered. I've worked in the gene farms. This one looks evolved. Too ugly."

Looks at Cara and You

"These two, on the other hand, looks like they was farmed in the Cytocaves of Nora.."

You giggled as Cara Smirked. Soon a droid entered, Mando and Cara lifted their blasters at it as You looked at the door.

"Would anyone care for some tea?" Says IG-11

"Please, lower your blasters. He will not harm you

"That thing is programmed to kill the baby, and Y/n."

"Not anymore."

"It was left behind in the wake of your destruction. I found it laying where it fell. Devoid of all life. I recovered the flotsam and staked it as my own in accordance with the charter of the New Republic. Little remained of its neural harness. Reconstruction was quite difficult... but not impossible. It had to learn everything from scratch. This is something that cannot be taught with the twist of a spanner. It requires patience and repetition. I spent day after day reinforcing its development with patience and affirmation. It developed a personality as its experiences grew."

"Is it still a hunter?"

"No. But it will protect."

"Amazing !!-"

You were going to get a closer look but Mando stopped you. They lowered the blasters and the Droid set the tea cups down.

"Tea ?"

You nodded and grabbed the cup

"Thank you IG! I'm sorry for earlier."

"Don't worry about it ma'am."

You noticed Mando and Kuiil go talk outside. You didn't mind as you played and fed the child.
