After a moment of pulling, Mando finally managed to yank his arm free of the unconscious Blurrgs mouth. He sighed in pain and annoyance. I glanced over at him to make sure he was okay. I felt grateful for his protective armor, he got himself into situations like this far too often.
"Thank you." He Said to the ugnaught. I slowly lowered my blaster to my side.
The man nodded before he spoke. "You are a bounty hunter." He glanced between the two of us.
"Yes." Mando replied, looking down at his damaged vambrace. I glanced down at it as well, it looked pretty damaged. But it was nothing he hadn't fixed before. Mando had also been teaching me how to repair parts of his armor. I had insisted upon it so I could help him.
"I will help you." He stated "I have spoken." The man then kicked his foot on the side of the Blurrg and turned around. Obviously expecting us to follow. I watched him warily as he rode away from us.
Mando placed his hands behind him and raised himself up from the ground. I hovered my hands near him as he slowly stood from the ground, just in case he needed my help.
"Are you ok?" I asked in concern.
"I'm fine." Mando stated before he started to walk forwards, I followed after him, making sure to walk alongside him just in case.
We eventually made it to a farm, where the ugnaught lived. There were large pens with blurrg resting inside. He invited us into his small house.
Mando sat down on the bench inside. I carefully followed his lead and perched myself gently on the seat. I glanced around at the ugnaught's house in curiosity. It seemed nice enough.
"Many have passed through. They seek the same one as you." The ugnaught said
"Did you help them?" Mando asked
"Yes. They died." He stated
"Well, then I don't know if I want your help." Mando said
"Me neither." I said, eyeing the man suspiciously.
"You do." The ugnaught said as he sat down across from them. "I can show you to the encampment"
"What's your cut?" Mando asked him
"Half." He Said
"Half the bounty to guide? Seems steep." Mando replied, I furrowed my brows. That is steep.
"No. Half the blurrg you helped capture." He said. Oh, half the blurrg. He can keep all the blurrg for all I care, there is not enough room for one of those on the crest.
"The blurrg? You can keep both of them." Mando said, sounding surprised that we thought he would want one.
"No, you will need one. To ride." He stated. "The way is impossible to pass without a blurrg mount. Though you and your friend will need to share." He stated
Mando and I glanced at each other. This job kept getting weirder and weirder
"I don't know how to ride blurrg." Mando stated
"Me neither." I agreed.
"I have spoken." The ugnaught said again. I really wish he would stop doing that. It was weirdly persuasive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mando collapsed on the ground yet again and I had to cover my mouth with my hand. It was really hard not to laugh at him everytime he fell off the blurrg and face planted the ground.
We would have to ride the blurrg together due to the number of blurrgs the ugnaught has.
