(Author Note) Hello this is another take on the Wimblegurk Brigade challenge and I will be using the Mandalorian lore and such as source material but with a little twist, they are Medieval to fit the Kuroinu world so anyway let's begin!
Legends tell of an order long ago of valiant Warrior Mercenaries called Mandalore. They were known to wear armor durable than the toughest steel, trained in many arts of combat, and had weapons some never seen before. Few are deemed worthy to join Mandalore. But times have changed Mandlalorians are shattered, purged near to extinction. The creed and what's left its followers turned to hiding and mercenary work, to support the Mandalorian Converts hidden across Eostia. Whatever they do out in the wild they are the Hunter and the Hunted...This is the way.
...
...
A small secluded farming village it's way out in the sticks far from the main roads not many travelers come by mostly merchants and traders to do business with the village. It's a small blip on the map barely worth noticing and it's a perfect place for those who want to lay low or are in hiding.
It's midday in the farming village and in the local tavern there seems to be a small group of thugs harassing a man demanding he pays them for some 'damages' he did to them. The other patronage even the bartender watching didn't do anything to intervene, not wanting to get involved or out of fear that they might be killed by the thugs who were armed.
The Thugs were getting impatient with the man they were gonna drag him out of the tavern to force him to pay until suddenly the front door open getting everyone's attention
Entering the Tavern was an armored cloaked Warrior but everyone knew right away it wasn't a run of the mill type they see every day. It was a Mandalorian they recognized the distinctive armor design from its T shape visor helmet to its shin guards. The presence of one alone can send fear to many but not all.
This caught the Thugs leader's attention until he noticed his spilled beverage.
"Hey! You spilled my drink!" The Thugs shouted as the Mandalorian ignored him and made his way to the bar counter
"Hey did you hear me! Mando" The leader went up to him so did his 2 followers "You spilled my drink."
"Whoa, whoa i-it's fine". The bartender spoke up to ease tension. "It's on me."
The 3 thugs slowly ganged up on the Mandolarian as the bartender grabs a bottle underneath the counter. Seeing a Mandolarian is rare and their armor is worth a lot of money they can get rich if can they pry it off from this man but is it real though.
"Is that real Beskar armor?" The leader asks as he gentle grazed the chest plate with a knife
"Here"
Just the bartender slides a bottle to the thug but it was caught midway by the Mandalorian. He quickly elbows the leader in the face knocking him and another back he then smashed the drink to the third face knocking him out cold
The Mandalorian then quickly grabs the second thug by their coat and slammed his head against the counter. The leader rubbing his face furious to get hit
"Grr, you'll pay for that!"
He lunged his knife at the Mandalorian but was easily counter when the Mandalorian caught his arm and punched him right in the chin. He then processes to move the leader's arm and makes him stab himself in the back with his own knife.
The Mandalorian noticed the second thug was back up on his feet and was getting away but wasn't gonna let him. He fired a tether of rope out from one of his forearm gauntlets it wrapped around both legs of the thug. He fell to the ground as the Mando pulled him toward him.
The Thug wasn't gonna let this Mando kill him he pulls out a small crossbow and fired at him but it hit the Mandalorian shoulder guard, knocking him back a bit but not enough for him drop his guard
The Mandolorian quickly pulled out a small knife and threw it, but not at the tied Thug rather at a rope that was hanging a candled chandelier the thug was under off. It falls onto the thug crushing him before he could even scream.
Everyone was taken back by it the Mandalorian took out those thugs in a matter of seconds and a good thing too those thugs were a bit a nuisance in the village but why is he in here in their backwater village?
The Mandalorian then turns his attention to the man the thugs were harassing. He noticed small bags of coins on the table the man tried to gather but the man soon realized it's not a good idea to do that especially to a warrior from a clan who is known to be good at killing. He kindly offered them to the Mandalorian as a reward for saving him.
"Um uh, T-thank you s-sir. I d-didn't know what I would do if you hadn't shown up."
The Mandalorian didn't say anything. He pulls out a scroll from his leather satchel and drops it onto the table. It slowly rolls out a sketch of the man, his bounty sitting right in front of him and he's here to collect.
The man's eyes widen at the bounty he nervously gulped. This is bad he knew he had a bounty on him and someone would come looking for him but he didn't think it would be a Mandolorian
"Oh hehe umm..l look I c-can get the Guild's money just give me more time."
The Mandolorian didn't care for his excuse he's here to collect he leans closer to him and said
"I can bring in you awake unharmed and well...or out cold hurt and broken. Your choice."
The man didn't say anything. He was sweating bullets and was scared shitless. He got up from his seat and followed the Mandalorian but before they left the Tavern. The Mando gather the small bag of coins and hands it to the bartender
"Sorry for the damages. Hope this covers it"
The Bartender and a few others were surprised by his gesture; they didn't expect he would do that.
"U-Um I-it is! Thank you!"
The Mandalorian politely nods his head and processes to escort his bounty out of the Tavern.
Leaving the village the man can't believe he was caught he thought he hid his tracks so well, should he make a break for it? No he shouldn't he saw what Mando did to those thugs he's lucky he offers him to come quietly rather than by force.
Reaching the edge of the village the man noticed a steel carriage with a driver waiting for 's the ones you see when transporting prisoners but to use that just for him seems a bit unnecessary he thought, a horse is good enough to transport them both.
The Mandalorian escorts him to the back and opens the door. The man's eyes widened to see about 8 people in there, some were chained up and covered in bruises.
"Get in." The Mandalorian ordered him
The man quickly did what he was told, just as he was getting adjusted in he couldn't believe it did this man really capture 9 bounties including him all on his own? Mandalorians are not to be messed with.
The Mandalorian slams the door shut and locks it he climbed up to the carriage seating next to the driver
"Where to?"
"The White Citadel"

And done! As you can tell it was heavenly inspired by the first episode of Mandalorian
For weapons, I will try to figure out how to incorporate some of the star wars weapons to fit in the story world. Such as the Disrupters type.
Hope you find this crossover story interesting and see you on the next!
