I start walking towards the disturbance, and as I got closer I could see in more detail what was going on with the four trouble makers. There were two tall Twi'leks, one fire red and another pale skinned tan. One dark Zabrak with short horns on his head, probably a teenager from his size and demeanor, and the last, whom looked to be the leader of the bunch, in so much as he was doing all the talking, was a brutal looking Duros, that had a demeanor and swag about him that gave me a dreadful coldness that I could feel flowing out from him. In the middle of this pack of jackals was what I found to be something that sent a shock down my spine…
A Mandalorian…
I had heard of them so much, being a Jedi, you knew the history of our Order and Mandalorian, the servants and mercenary soldiers of the Sith. Blood lust filled soldiers that were tough and ready to kill on command. But something was telling me this one was different, I didn't know how, just had that feeling that I knew I had to help.
As I approached from the side I heard the Duros speak to the Mando.
"Give us what taxes we demand merc scum!" he seethed out of his tight lipped mouth in a sinister voice.
The Mando just stood silent, his head rotating around and I knew he was thinking a plan to make from this brawl.
I stepped closer to them all and announced, "What goes on here"...
The Duros and every other one of his underlings glared at me and for a second nothing was said.
"Stay out of this off worlder, we will receive our payment one way or the other, and intrude on this and you will receive a hasty lesson for this intrusion..." he yelled out at me in anger and warning.
"I'd say to walk away in one piece now, since four against one doesn't seem fair in this world or any other for that matter, so back off scum!" I projected my voice in a command style I had never used before, but the force was flowing through my blood and my adrenaline shot up and I felt everything slow down in time before me. Oh this will be bad I thought to myself.
One Breath. One Second.
In what seemed as slow motion, the Duros Leader pulled out a medium sized blaster I couldn't recognize and started to draw it towards me. Long ago I had learned close combat techniques from the Jedi Order and although there were basic at the time, I had picked up many new variations and techniques from the travels, and in an instant, my instincts took over and I force sped my way towards him and in an instant I was up close to him, grabbed his arm, kicked his legs out from under him and twisted my arm and he went over in a flip hard to the ground on his back and I gave two swift punches to his center chest then to hard elbow to the side of his head to knock him out in a daze.
Second Breath. Two Second.
As I stood back up I could sense the Mando threw a punch at the red skinned Twi'lek and it landed square on his nose and he bowled over in a yelp and painful scream, while he did that I turned to the Zabrak and ran the few steps and as he turned to me I jumped and gave a landed kick dead set on his chest with both feet and flipped off of him and he fell down and after landing on my feet and rushing on him I gave a knee down hard on his side lungs to knock him down for good.
Third Breath. Third Second.
I felt a flash of pain flow through me, I turned and saw the Mando was on the ground with smoke coming from a hole in his side from a blaster wound. The pale skinned Twi'lek was standing tall over him and lining up for a head shot, and while he was bringing up his gun, I jumped the ten feet to him and mid air pulled out my hidden half vibrosword that I carried in a special harness on my back. In the downward fall of my jump the Twi'lek saw me and tried to turn his gun on me but my sword made contact first right at his gun hand on the wrist.
Fourth Breath. Fourth Second.
"Ahhhhhhhrgghh", he screamed out in agony as he hand was severed cleanly and he collapsed on the ground holding his stub and he rolled around till be passed out.
I was breathing hard and I had to force myself to slow my breathing as the fight was winding down and really over. I turned to the Mando lying on the ground and went to his side to see if he was ok but as I walked up to him he pulled a blaster out on me and raised it up to my head. I was in trouble…
