"Kaira, we have a mission. Are you ready" Luke Skywalker says approaching me
"I'm always ready Master"  I reply grabbing my lightsaber and securing it to my belt.

We get to our ship, followed by my master's Droid, R2-D2. The machine reaches its spot aboard the X-Wing beeping as we enter and sit at the controls.

"Can I ask what this mission is about?" I say wanting to know more
"There is a force-sensitive being that needs the Jedi's help. I felt him, he's really strong"
"Does that mean I will have a sort of classmate?"
"I don't know, I was thinking... you've been a Padawan for a long time, you might be able to become a master-"I look at him with a smile spreading on my face "-but don't get your hopes up, I haven't made a decision yet"
"Either way I want to thank you and say that it is a honor learning from you"

I keep smiling looking outside the glass as my master speaks with R2.

Becoming a Jedi master has been my dream since forever, I am so happy that Luke Skywalker is trusting me to step up the next level. This youngling we're retrieving might be my first apprentice... I must say, it's an incredible feeling, even though I am also a little nervous.

The trip is fast thanks to the hyperspace and soon my master tells me to get ready as we are approaching the Imperial ship. Things are about to get fun.

*3rd person point of view*

On Moff Gideon's ship a group formed by some Mandalorians, the marshal Cara Dune and the assassin Fennec Shand has just captured the warlord and saved the Child. The dark troopers are trying to break the door that keeps them separated from the group, pounding loudly on it.

Every person of the group gets their blaster up, ready to shoot.

"You have an impressive fire team protecting you" Moff Gideon says with a smirk "But I think we all know, after a valiant stand, everyone in this room will be dead but me and the Child"

The Mandalorian tightens his grip on the blaster, looking away from the Imp and to the door, which is slowly deforming. Soon the droids will be able to get in. The Moff grins maniacally.

As everyone stands an alarm start ringing, and they all turn too see that a X-Wing is flying towards them

"An X-Wing" says Bo-Katan
"One? Great. We're saved" replies Cara sarcastically still holding her blaster at the door
"Incoming craft. Identify yourself" the Mandalorian woman tries to communicate with it, but doesn't get an answer.

The ship enters in the bay and stops. Grogu cooes, moving his ears.

The pounding stops leaving the group confused and worried. Bo-Katan watches the security monitors to see the dark troopers holding their rifles staying still as two hooded figures walk in the hallway.

Second later as the woman watches curiously the two beings start battling against the droids using lightsabers. The dark troopers fall one after the other.
"Jedi?!" says surprised Bo-Katan, causing Mando to turn, as he finally found the ones he was looking for.
Gideon has an alarmed look on his face.
Outside the room a green lightsaber and a blue one keep slaying the droids, sometimes helped by a force-using raised hand.

Moff Gideon, turns fast with the blaster he kept hidden to shoot Bo-Katan, she falls leaving a clear shot to the kid. The warlord points to shoot him, but the fire never reaches Grogu as Din dives to shield him. The others surround Gideon telling him to drop the blaster, but he tries a last desperate gesture putting it under his chin to kill himself. Cara manages to knock him out before he can do anything.

Meanwhile the Jedis keep destroying dark troopers moving forward to the room. The scene is showed on the monitors, causing the Child to look at it in awe with the Mandalorian close to him.
