**Traveling tales**
*The stand off*"Who said I would hurt your friend? And if I do come closer what will you do?" asked the cyborg inclining her head and leaning her body closer. "Now why don't you put that weapon away and I can continue on my way. I have somewhere to go."
The spaceman got off from the pod and walked behind the alien. "I think you should let her go K. It was my fault for not seeing her in time, plus how much harm could someone like that cause to someone like you?"
"It's not me I am worried about B. Cyborgs are artificial intelligence machines that follow directives too literally and dont care if they hurt organic life in the process of acomplishing their goals." said the alien walking back slowly.
"First of all, mean. You are describing an android, I am a cyborg, half organic half machine. Second, I dont follow directives, ill have you know, I am my own independent cyborg." said the cyborg nodding with a smile. "Only a blind person... oh you're blind. How did I not noticed, wait but you can see something because if I do this..." said the cyborg walking a circle around them as the alien followed her with his staff still in alert. "Ah, you can see other parts of the radiation spectrum, facinating."
"Props to you on figuring out that by your self... but I need to make sure somehow you say you are who you say." said the alien standing still.
"I guess introductions are in order. I am Pr... Well my friends call me Iron, I mean you nor your friend harm." said the cyborg bowing.
The youngling walked through the path with the duck with rizz and got near to where the three where. At first they couldn't tell what was going and where distracted by the water orbs. But when the youngling noticed the alien in a similar pose to when he saw his father fight off some bandits he rushed in drawing out his light sword. But when he noticed it was the red deer cyborg he slowed down confused.
"Whats going on?" he asked "I see you met Iron" he added.
"Oh, you know the young one. Thats good enough for me." said the alien putting away his staff and relaxing his pose.
"Wait, is that it? That's enough for you to trust me?" asked the cyborg.
"Of course, I trust the judgement of this one." said the alien smiling.
"Well my name is Blue, and this big blind mess is Kosmic." said the space man bowing as the alien also bowed.
"My apologies for the misunderstanding" said the alien grabbing some flowers from the side of the path. He divided half and offered half to the cyborg. The cyborg confused took the flowers and the alien smiled. She smelled them and said "oh thank you... they are pretty"
The alien look at the flowers he kept and proceeded to eat them from one big bite. "Yeah thats how you know they taste good." he said with a full mouth.
The duck with rizz look at him and shook his head "I'll never get used to seeing him do that... kinda sus not gonna lie" he said while eating some meal worms.
"Ok... well we should get going, we dont want to be late" said the youngling gesturing the group to continue on moving.
To be continued. . .
