Chapter 6: Reunion

The room was dark, at least Mando thought he was in a room. The inky blackness revealed nothing, the only noise came from his modulated breathing. He roamed the space looking for anything of substance but found nothing. It was as if he was in a void. Alarmed by a scream that pierced through the darkness, he turned sharply towards the noise. Wait, he knew that voice. Star? He looked around frantically, calling out her name til suddenly something grabbed his hand tightly. As he looked down at the hand, the room morphed into a birthing room and the person holding his hand was Star. She was in labor.

"Aah. No, I cant give birth yet! The father isnt here. Din is not here!" Star screamed, sweat dripping down her body as she tried to fight through the pain. "Please, I cant-I cant do this without him here." Star was sobbing now.

A tall, dark man was standing beside her, wiping the sweat from her brow "Star you cant wait any longer. Din is dead and if you dont give birth now, your children will lose both their parents."

Star looked at him with her tear soaked eyes, and sighed, "Okay. Okay."

"Star! I'm here, Im right here. I'm not dead." Mando could feel his own panic rising, and it only grew when he tried to squeeze her hand and his fingers went right through hers. "Star!" Mando screamed as the image began to disappear.

"No!" Mando yelled as he bolted awake, startling not only himself but the child as well. Din was drenched in sweat and he tried to calm himself when he heard the cries from the makeshift pram. He took deep breaths to calm himself and went over to the child. The child was crying and his big eyes were wet with tears. The child had sensed Mando's distress and the scream was what broke the dam of tears. Mando gently picked up the child and rocked and bounced him lightly as he paced the floor. "Shh, it's okay. I'm okay, it was just a nightmare." The child curled in closer to Mando's chest and Mando sighed and sat in the pilot's chair. The child stayed awake until Din's heart rate leveled out, satisfied, the child slowly drifted back to sleep.

Din checked their course, careful not to wake the little one. "Still on course." He sat back in his chair, rubbing the child's small back soothingly. What the hell was that? It felt so vivid, almost like I was there with her. Mando wandered to himself, did this have to do with this force? He checked their course once again, they were close, and Mando started to feel nervous.

People always said Mando was a little paranoid, Star used to tease him about it all the time. Granted, when it came to bounty hunting, not a lot of targets made him nervous. But he was about to see his fiance and mother to his child or children. They haven't seen each other for six years, and if the dream was any indication, Star thought he was dead. What is he going to say? What will she say? Will Star look at him with the love she did all those years ago? There are too many variables and Mando did not enjoy uncertainty. He shook his head, theres no point dwelling on it now, whatever happens, happens.

The planet that Star was supposedly on was a small swamp like planet. Kind of like Sorgan but had more swamps and less populated. According to the information Papa gave him, Star was hiding out on the outskirts of a small village. The village was located towards the middle of the planet and Mando landed in a clearing about two miles north of the village.

Apparently an old acquaintance of Papa's swore he saw Star here. Plus he heard that a beautiful healer lived in the woods surrounding the village. The healer had saved the village leader from a deadly ailment and ever since, she's been the village doctor. According to Papa's notes, outsiders weren't exactly welcomed to the village much less allowed to see the healer. In the rare instances that she did enter the village, she was always surrounded by four guards. She also kept her face hidden as much as possible. Papa's acquaintance just so happened to catch a glimpse when a gust of wind knocked back her hood. Mando just hoped that Papa's informant was reliable.

Mando loaded up his supplies and found himself triple checking his armor. He had to make sure he looked good, if the information was accurate, Mando was about to meet his love again. He couldn't let anything go unchecked or go wrong. He put the child in his pram and set it to follow him. Mando looked at the child, "Now. I want you to be on your best behavior, understand? "

The child cocked his head and babbled. Mando sighed, "Who am I kidding? The moment the ladies see you, they will fall apart."

When the ramp lowered and revealed the field, the child and Mando were greeted by two women and two men. The older women had a scar across her left eye and from her position at the front, Mando assumed she was the leader. The older woman looked him up and down then at the child. "Are you Mandalorian or just a guy wearing Mandalorian armor?"

"I am Mandalorian."

The leader squinted her eyes and looked him over one more time. "Follow me. I will send men with you later to retrieve your things." She turned to leave and began to walk back towards the woods, her entourage followed closely behind.

Mando didnt move at first, she noticed this and without faltering she said, "your here to see the healer right? If you dont come now, you will not be welcomed again." Mando sighed and followed her, the ramp closing after him.

The child was taking in his new surroundings and the new people. Mando was occupied with making sure the child didnt jump out his pram and try to catch the frogs jumping along the path. They walked til they came upon a tall gate that had tall spiked walls extending on either side. At the sight of the group, guards at the top of the wall quickly opened the gates. Once they entered into the village, the gates were closed immediately and two more guards arrived behind Mando. He did not like this, but he would play along for now.

The leader stopped in front of a large tent in the middle of the village. "Alright." She turned and faced Mando. "You and the child, follow me. Inside the tent, you will meet with one of the healer's guards. He will ask you some questions, and then he will take you to the healer."

Mando nodded, the group dispersed and the leader entered the tent, Mando followed close behind.

In the middle of the tent stood a large, tall, dark man. He was so tall in fact that Mando had to look up just to see his face. The man looked at him with suspicion, he walked around Mando, inspecting every inch of him. He stopped in front Mando and said with a deep voice, "Stay here. Dont move." The man left the tent and Mando could faintly hear a conversation.The man was only gone for a few minutes when he reemerged but with another man that looked near identical to him. "The healer would like to see you now. Follow us."

Mando followed them to a speeder, "get in." Mando and the child climbed inside the speeder and the second man sat in front of them. The first man drove the speeder and Mando was once again greeted with the scenery of trees passing by. They rode along the path for a good two hours before any form of structure was seen. The speeder was stopped at the bottom of wooden steps that led up to a large, two story cabin.

Mando and the child got off the speedster and followed the lead man up the stairs while the other trailed behind them. The lead man opened the front door for them and led them to a small bar that was located off the kitchen. "Wait here. I'll be right back." He then dissapeared around the corner and Mando was left with the second man. A few minutes later the first man reemerged and addressed the second man, "Go back to your post. I'll handle this from here." The second man left and Mando was face to face with the lead man.

"Listen here Mando. I want you to remain at least six feet from her at all times. I would usually ask for weapons but I've been informed that it's a part of your religion." The man sneered. "I dont trust you, at least not yet. Make one wrong move, your dead."

Mando stood firm, "I understand." The lead man nodded and beckoned for them to follow.

They stopped in the living room and out on the balcony, through some white curtains, Mando could make out the figure of a woman. When the wind blew just right, he caught sight of golden tan skin or long dark curls. He found himself holding his breath as the lead man walked onto the balcony and whispered something to the woman. The woman said something he couldn't hear and then she emerged.

Mando would have let out a breath if she hadn't taken his breath away. The world seemed to slow and come to a stop as she made her way to him. "Star." He reached up and placed a gloved hand on her cheek. Star leaned into his touch. Star brought her hand to his, tears forming in her eyes. "Din. This isnt another dream, is it?"

"No, I'm here." Star traced the lines of his beskar armor and ran her hands softly over is signet. Din ran his hands through her hair, both lost in their own shared world until a small babble caught their attention. The child was looking at Star with his hands outstretched in the universal sign that he wanted to be held.

Star walked over to him and picked him up, "Hello there. You are such a handsome little guy aren't you?" She gave his tummy a little tickle and the child erupted with giggles. "Is he your foundling?"

"Yes." Star walked over to Mando, cradling the child in her arms. "Looks like a lot has happened in the six years we've been apart."Star turned to the lead man, "Kaelyn, can you get lunch on the table? I'm sure that our guest starving and knowing Mando here, he has been surviving off of ration bars." Kaelyn gave Mando one last look before going into the kitchen.

"So, are you two together?" Mando asked.

Star bursted with giggles, "You dont have to worry about that Din. Even if I did like Kaelyn, he prefers men." Mando sighed and she erupted with more laughter at his reaction. "You have not changed at all."

As she handed the child to Mando, two children bursted into the room, "Mommy we're back!!" They ran to Star giving her a big hug. Star glanced at Mando as she hugged them back, "Children we have guests. Remember your manners. Introduce yourselves."

"Sorry mommy." They turned and looked up at Mando, they were twins, one boy and one girl. The boy hid slightly behind Star while the girl outstretched her hand.

"Hello, my name is Amelia, I'm 6 years old. Over there is my little brother, Din Junior, but he goes by DJ for short. He's a little shy." Mando heard DJ mutter that she was only 5 minutes older.

Mando took her hand and shook it. Star got down to her children's level. "Kids, remember the stories I would tell you about your real father. About the Mandalorians?" The twins nodded. "Well, I want you to meet your father. Din Djarin."

Author's note:Okay I finally got this chapter done. So there it is, Star had twins. I hope everyone is being safe out there!!!
