Author Note: Just a quick reminder: This story does not use ANY of the current published back-stories for either of the Fett's (who are not Mandalorians) or for the Mandalorians themselves. This is basically what I always imagined the Mandalorians to be and I felt like writing it out finally.
Secrets of the Mandalorians
Chapter 1: Things that can NEVER be
By: X-wing Day
Rac Benten, his jedi robes covered in blood and his dark brown hair a mess, scanned the battlefield before him with his sharp green eyes. His saber was a quick moving, brown blur which his hissed and sizzled as he blocked blaster bolt after bolt and rain gently feel onto the blade. The entire scene seemed to be out a great tale or some strange holo-drama with far too much blood. Mandalorian warriors, Republic troops and Jedi engaged in a dire battle…
'Dire? That is too corny." Rac thought to himself as he finally brought down the last of the three warriors who had attacked him. He looked around again, the sounds of the battle drowning out the hum of the light saber in his hand as glowing blades and angry red blaster bolts lit the battle. He took a deep breath as he scanned the field with his sharp emerald eyes, taking the moment of rest while he could get it. His eyes came to a stop on a figure wielding a dark blue saber with seemingly reflexive ease. What really caught him though was that the figure wore the heavy armor of a Mandalorian warrior.
Rac pushed away the instant flare of anger which rose in him as he saw another Republic soldier go down under the warrior's blade, spattering the blue armor with blood. Rac started to walk calmly through the battle toward the armored figure as he ignored everything around him as he approached. Rac slowly approached, his breathing slow and deep as bolts flew past him in all directions. When he was near enough Rac flipped over the heads of several warriors and Republic soldiers to land directly behind the warrior.
Rac activated his light saber and slashed at the warrior's back but his brown blade was intersected by a deep blue one as the warrior swung around to face him with impossible speed. For a moment the two faced each other, their blades locked together, as the light rain falling from the night sky washed over them. After a moment Rac disengaged his blade and rolled away from the blue warrior. He quickly stood and blocked as the warrior slashed downward at his head, the move was nearly fast enough to cleave him in half. For several minutes the two dueled, the battle around them no longer of any importance as each matched the other's speed and skill in a perfect, deadly dance. They continued to fight, their speed increasing until Rac finally hit the warrior with a glancing blow to the arm. It was just enough to burn through the armor and lightly injure the arm beneath.
'Not eager to use that arm any more.' Rac thought for a smug moment. That moment cost him more than he'd imagined it ever could. In that moment the warrior managed to knock his saber from his hand shutting the blue saber off right after. Rac was so surprised that he did not see the warrior's quick movements until an armored forearm slam into his chin from below, the force behind the impossibly strong blow throwing him backward and down onto the ground. Rac began to lunge to his feet when the blue light saber blade appeared with a snap-hiss in front of his neck. Forced by the blade's proximity to lay back Rac could do nothing but watch as his saber flew up from the ground and into the warrior's waiting left hand.
"Now Jedi, you are mine."
