chapter 23

Being in the room with a sleeping Farron and a nosey queen felt weird. She was normally so much more dignified from afar , i think she's bored as hell. We're going to lay down some ground rules right now , there was no way in hell she was going to steal my man.

"Queen everything im about to say is with the utmost respect"

"oh?"

"We let you follow us around because you're so persistent we know you're lonely .If you try to lay even a finger on Farron I'll personally rip you to shreds rules be damned , my life be damned"

She didn't seem to like me directly opposing her but i was glad she didn't

"I'm less interesting in someone like him, then his power "She said with a perceived coldness

"yea right i already know how things are with your husband , you want out of that marriage and you think Farron is the ticket"

"ahh you caught me" she said giving up her façade

"Uhh look your boyfriend is glowing"

"Yeah he does that, what about it"

"does he float too? i think he's going to blow" The queen said as she hid behind the couch

Turning around i was spooked ,I wanted to help Farron but if he really was going to blow what good would me getting caught up in the blast do? So i hid behind the couch too ,after a few minutes it look like he woke up

"Ahhhh!" i heard him scream in a wimpish voice

"it never gets boring with you around, what was that anomaly i just witnessed"

I heard the queen to my right say

"What do you mean?" he said playing dumb

"Farron you just started glowing which is normal but then it was accompanied by floating i thought you were going to blow up"

He was keeping more secrets then usual and it was pissing me off, I'm trying to be mister nice guy here.

"Are you going to explain this or go into toddler mode and keep secrets"

"truth be told i don't know what i got either , but i think we better go back to the shooting range to test it out"

Was he trying to wiggle his way out of this one, that's so like him

"oh no mister your not going anywhere until at the very least you explain what happened"

maybe i shouldn't have said that because in the very next moment he was standing on his two feet looking smug as ever

"you were saying, I'm a free agent now i can go wherever i want"

"amazing its like you constantly keep changing, how do you manage" the queen said

"are you going to join me or not?" he said gesturing towards the door

i don't know if i should let this slide, he was changing rather quickly and i don't know if i liked it. There was some part of me that liked being stronger then him but maybe was i acting immature.

"didn't you want to find out about my eyes, do you expect me to just tell you everything?" he said quite annoyed

"Oh letting up a little slowly but surely, before i follow you, do tell why wont you even let out a small amount of info, am i really that bad in your eyes"

The queen seemed like she took it all in without any concern, so maybe i was acting like a child. He is my lover after i should support him, dammit fine.

"You're the worst" he said like a dagger

He didn't need to be so mean to her but i understood from his perspective she was basically a could be killer.

"since Gwen trust you'll ill trust you also ,you said you want to know about my powers right?"

Yeah right i don't believe he would tell her for a second, lets see what he pulls out of his ass, just why did he have to mention me.

"oh so soon? i thought you were against it, the power of love really does things to a man, ill keep that in mind"

"In my clan I'm the last living member...every person in my clan had powers .Some could move mountains others destroy planets, it all depended on their age."

"If they had such incredible powers then how were they killed?"

"they were peace loving at heart and choose death over fighting back, i was like that before too , hence i was captured .Not anymore though if im the last member of my clan i need to live on and living on requires that i fight"

"So tragic and quite frankly i don't believe such a bad lie one bit"

"I'll forgive you since it must be something super juicy, all you're making me do is want to know more"

yea obviously she figured it out , sometimes i forget the age disparity between us he might be 20 something but were thousands of year old, silly fibs like that were see through.

"I know you dont trust me but think about it like this , if i really wanted to i could just order for your sweet Gwendolyn to be dismantled and find the out what it is that way.All in due time though once you find out im merely im really just a admirer you will have no reason to keep such secrets"

"I guess that is true... i need more time to think."

She couldn't order that i would just beat the shit out of everyone , i was the strongest robot here. She was getting desperate

This was getting weird lets change the subject " Soooo back to the range?

We were back in my beloved range

Farron assumed the position of where he was before , then turned to me asking

"Don't you want to practice some shooting yourself?"

lately i haven't been very fond of violence even though i just said i wanted to rip the queens head off it mas more of a threat then anything

"No were watching you big guy"

what happened to my bold, caring and assertive Gwendolyn, never thought you were the type to just watch"

Well i am now bitch, so get to shooting

He started by just looking into nothingness? strange, all of a sudden his eye started gushing with blood it looked horrific, was he pushing himself too hard?

"Farron" i cried out

Seeing him put his hand up i stopped dead in my tracks, if he wanted to continue i wouldn't stop him.After a few minutes he started floating like some sort of deity , the air was literally steaming with energy... when did he become so powerful? An abrupt stop and he fell to his knees, did he fail?

"Dude" i said

"Waa why did you stop , i was so close to seeing something amazing"

"I felt like the hole building would collapse if i continued killing everyone inside"

That was concerning, i hope having access to so much power wouldn't make him unbearable to be around , his humbleness was one of the things i liked about him.

"Hey for once im finally on your side "he said to the queen

"You are?"

"Yeah i definitely want to see this power , lets go to the forest "

"Heck yea, like i said this is why I'm a admirer I've never seen these things in these dull walls"

"Its like you're getting stronger by the second... hate to use you as a guinea pig but damn i want so see just bad as her"

I lied i just wanted him to stay the same. The queen was encouraging this behavior , i wanted to say something but he obviously wanted this as well so i held my tongue. Reaching down to the hole we have in the building he asked to be carrried. This brought memories of the old days ,when times were simpler and he wasn't OP.

When we got down to the entrance the royal prince Remiel and Myrtle were smooching it up. When they saw us approaching the guy said

"Oh look what we have here such a big party ,what's the occasion" Remiel shouted cheerfully

They started whispering something in each other's ear when i heard

"Bro she already knows about the chosen me and myrtle baby have been married forever , she found out about her powers before you were even born"

That was news to me , i guess she is older so she would know more about the world .Frankly i had no clue until a few days ago what a chosen was .

"ahh so you're a chosen , i had a hunch but wanted to let you tell me"

"Yeah i am. Janus the god of change"

"ooh that's a new one, now i need to see even more"

Excited they all wanted to come along , and i couldn't stop them so the crew got expanded

When we arrived at the forest it was the same spot we watched the sunrise all those nights ago .It brought up nostalgic feelings and a warmth through my gears. We formed something similar to that of a group huddle.

"So Janus specifically told me this was a combat oriented skill so everyone has to go far back , i would feel horrible if you got caught up in the explosion"

Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on.

"explosion you act like your going to destroy the forest" said myrtle playfully

"i just might , now go"

mhhh did he really mean that though, guess I'd have to wait and see .I lead them to a spot on the high ground just far enough to not be caught in whatever he was about to do but high enough above the trees so that we could see everything.

At first it looked like he wasn't moving much just a little bit of giggling, which i had to say was freaky. He was holding his sides like there was a imaginary strait jacket around him, then he took a lift off. Much higher then we'd anticipated he was above us , it was like he was calling in a storm. The winds picked up in all directions swaying the trees while black ominous clouds began to swirl. This amount of power was impossible for a human to do,... was he even human? His body was shining so bright it was unbearable for me to focus on directly.

The air... was latent with energy how much more of this did he have in him?

That's when i heard something like a ill omen

"MORE GIVE ,GIVE ME THE POWER TO DESTROY THIS WORLD!"

That didn't seem like something a level headed Farron would say, this power had to be controlling him in some way. It was like his power had drove his mind into a frenzied state, there was nothing but to see .So far it looked scary but nothing but some shouting had happened. There was a image behind him... was his god personally assisting him in this? I can see that this god loved chaos , That's when a the ground and sky burst simultaneously with pure beams of might ripping everything that it came in contact . The lake that he was next to had massive whirlpools and tornados were strung all about, this looked like it was a doomsday.

Raising his hand all of the power immediately ceased , in all expect for right in front of him was he gathering it into a final emission? In that moment i realized that Farron could've actually destroyed the HQ, the market, and every single one of us. This was unreal just a few weeks ago he needed me to take him everywhere .... now this?!

Jolted outed my head a laser directly from space devastated the ground ,then he started falling .We needed to go now before he passed out , as per usual When we got too his level he was standing there like it was just your average afternoon, other then his eye he didn't seemed out of breath .Did he not even use all of this power? Unlike some people i couldn't hide how i was feeling, the look on my face told my worry.

"i don't want to piss you off" Said Remiel

"This is totally unfair , your god really must like you to give you something like this" said myrtle

"following you around for hours resulted in the most powerful display of energy I've ever witnessed from a living thing" said the queen who i was starting to get annoyed with even if it was true

"... are you okay? I'm worried about your mental health"

"Of course I'm fine" He said as he proceeded to hug me, your not getting off the hook that easy. He said he wanted to destroy the world... the only type of people who said things like that were angsty teens or real world level threats.

"you said that you wanted to destroy the world though"

"i think Janus gave me something as cheesy as drawing power from my emotions , so i thought of the most destructive thing i could think of at the top of my head and said it"

That made some sense but was that all true .Most of my life all i did was kill and kill some more, it never ended he didn't need to take that path. I had nothing that i wanted to save, nothing that i cherished. This had to stop we didn't need to be a warrior couple just a happy one.

"i think I'm done with the violence would it be ok if i asked you not do that again... if I'm going to be honest i don't want it to change you, cant we just explore the world in peace?" i said pleadingly

"I wish i could...since your honest with me ill return the favor. I don't think running away will make violence not exist, i think its better to hone this power and use it only when necessary. Also i think the other disciples are much stronger so i need to prepare if i want to protect you"

I didn't agree with all of it but too some degree it was somewhat true. Chances are we would never meet another disciple so there's that, or that's what i wanted to think.NO i have to live in reality, my cowardice is coming back i thought i had abandoned it .All i can do is train as well so we can both be equals and protect each other.

"... if you think so , then ill support your decision just make sure you tell me when you about to so i can be around if something goes wrong"

"Your everything i ask for" i heard him say with a smile

"Oh Farron, you always know what to say to calm my nerves" My worries were probably baseless, I means its Farron were talking about.

"before you two start fucking i might need to borrow farron" the queen said

Ugh i shouldn't have been nice to her in the beginning, we should've just ran for the hills.

"HELL NO" i said putting myself between me and him

"Oh relax all i wanted to say is you might need to marry anathasia, you would get good political benefits and we would get a insanely strong defender"

"HELL NO" this time it came from Farron

I could see why the king was rejoicing when she started following us around instead of defending her .She had absolutely no sense of respect, its funny now that i think about it there is no way that farron could even be attracted to her. Which made me lose some of the tension in my back.

"You wont be able to keep him all for yourself just look at how powerful he is , if he wanted too he could become rich and famous, he's going to have thousands of women around him especially because he's traveling the galaxy , wouldn't you rather someone close to you?"

Did she think she was close to me...?She was in some ways but if she kept acting like this i would ditch her. Though she is a more experienced women then me... she had to be right. He keeps saying about how much im the one he wants but he hasn't left this planet , does he really even know how beautiful the women get outside of this small world. I know that im not the best looking girl in the world, plus it cant be pleasant when I'm made of Full space tungsten and he a warm soft flesh and blood creature. He's too nice for his own good but he wont live forever like me, i cant deprive him of this.

"Gwen what matters most to a man is the emotional connection , i have no interest in other women" he said matter of factly

"Yeah i know ... but i want you to live a happy life of abundance. Humans don't live forever there wont be room for regrets in your coffin and while I'm with you i want you to be surrounded by people who love you , don't you like girls?"

"It's hard to say i didn't like girls but that's not a good enough reason, most guys tend to be monogamous in this situation more doesn't mean better. Unless its more of you"

Monogamy must be practice on this planet so i see why he's hesitant .Though looking at the prince he has multiple women in his life and myrtle is fine with it, same thing with the king and queen. Right now i think its safe to assume he thinks ill be hurt ,but i wouldn't be if anything I'd be happy has getting what he wants before he expires.

"you're saying that now but you don't know who you'll meet at as we travel the galaxy, as long as I'm number one girl have as much fun as you want"

"If that's the case then forget my daughter and just go with me" The queen said

She is a opportunistic little bugger, but if that's what he wanted so be it. I was done restricting him, my job is to make him happy as possible

"ill keep that in mind " He said looking at me and ignoring her

See i knew it! or maybe I'm jumping to a conclusion either way i was done with the topic

"Hey I'm pretty sleepy now , do you want to head back plus we need to check on the gear?" he said

"Well i wanted to stay the night out here this time we can watch the stars" i said wanting the cherish time with him and some friends .I was time to take it slow could just enjoy the up incoming night

"Camping trip! All in favor say aye" said Myrtle

"Aye, Aye ,Aye , Aye "
