You rubbed your pained cheek as you sat down on a log in the forest, over at the stream.
Feng was bitching at you earlier again... more than usual.
She always found a reason to be hateful to others, but she never meant any real harm.
Until today really. She pushed you back while arguing, sending you to stumble back and fall. You poked a stick into your cheek, thankfuky not doing any damage to your eye but a bruise would soon leak in.
You left as soon as you had the chance, didn't even give her time to apologise or say any more harmful things.

You were just about ready to rant about this to the only one that seemed to listen.
Your... friend? A partner? You weren't fully sure what you two had going on honestly.
It was that demonic creature of horror and zero words.
The Executioner.
You'd start meeting on this spot a few months ago, just to sort of talk or sit in silence. As said before, he never spoke, only gurgled or bubbled, and so he was a good enough listener.
He didn't want to kill you it seemed.
Something about the name told you that he only punished the guilty so... you have to be on the nice list for now.
You were careful what you said and did around him.

Speak of the devil, the quiet gurgling and the annoying, loud screech of his weapon aproached.
You looked behind to see him aproach the log.
You had to smile.
He probably couldn't see it anyway.
He moved slowly, with his back bent in a reverse. Maybe because that massive, metal, triangular head was far too heavy.
He finaly rounded around the log, stopping in front of you, and stabbing that massive blade into the ground.
He announced his final arrival by a loud gurgle.
"Well hello to you too hot stuff"
You weren't really sure if he understood anything you said.
No answer. Oh how surprising.
"I have you been to a trial today already? I haven't" You asked, looking up at him, to surprisingly find him looking down on you.

You heard a quiet hurr come out of his helmet before he extended his hand to you, pointing at you.
That's... new...
"What..? I have something on my face or something?" You asked, checking your clothes.
He leaned foward, poking your cheek rather roughly.
"Ow-" You quickly covered it, feeling the bruise under the skin agressively pulse in pain.
"Yeah that..." You uncovered your cheek to him.
"That was from a... teammate. I fell" You explained shortly.
An extremly loud gurgle from the Piramid tugged with you. He straightened up, looking surprisingly offended. Mad even.
"What? I say something wrong?" You got nervous. You didn't wanna get punished. Or at least not in a murderous way.

His blade entered the ground more as he gurgled out again.
"Uh... I... it was Feng Min? The blue one? That what you wanna know? You wanted to know who did it?" You nervously asked, hoping you won't die.
Piramid head pulled the blade slowly out of the ground and began slumping his way towards the survivors campfire.

Two and two conected and you freaked out imidiately.
"No no! Hey! No!" You jumped up from the log, following him quickly.
"Stop! Don't hurt her!" You caught up, trying to get in his way to stop him.
He only gurled at you and continued hurling you in front of him as he stomped towards the camp.
"You can't hurt 'em!" You waved in his... face... trying to get his attention down to you.
You grabbed onto that huge, metal, piramid head.
"Not only will that not fix anything, the Entity'll demolish you!" You pushed his head down as to stop him from going straight. And it worked well enough.
A bubbly gurgle escaped from under his head.

Sure, it was a killer, and you shouldn't care what happens to him, but on the other hand, it's your only friend!

"It's fine, at ease soldier" You sighed as you finaly got him to chill down and not try to push foward.
You noticed you still had your hands on his... piramid.
"I'll just get out of your h-" Your hand was roughly grabbed and squeezed back to his metal head.
A quiet bubble leaked out of him.

"What, you like that?" You slid your hand on his rusty head.
"Listen, I really apriciate you wanting to protect me all cute like that but you don't have to... I can deal with it" You said to the large creature that quietly bubbled.
He let out a louder growl.
"You can... have the sinners in a trial afterwards no?" You tried convincing him. You litteraly didn't even know if he understood your words, but you tried your best.
"Now let's... turn you the other... way" You pushed on his heavy head, struggling to turn his direction.
"I'll talk to her, we'll work it out" You pat his long head.
"And if we don't, then... I'll send you to creep her a bit" You smiled more to yourself, but you heard him gurgle something under your grasp as he waddled by your side.

You kept your hands on his head, leading him the other way from the survivor's camp.
He was pretty willing to follow as long as you held onto him.

I mean... Works for you too.
You were glad you could finaly touch him more than a mere hand swipe.
Hey, if you're lucky, maybe later you'll get to touch more later...
