Standing in front of a door with a splashing flask on it i inferred this was the lab. Pushing the door open i only saw one person in the lab. She was my size wearing a lab coat on her shoulders with her arms free to do whatever she pleased with them. Turning around i could tell she had glasses and yellow pig tails making look younger then she was .Her eyes had a dark green to them and under lab coat she was wearing sandals with and blue shirt and , black pants .In a way she reminds me of a more nerdy myrtle i don't know why.
"Heyo" Said the scientist working on some experiment
" Hi, umm i need a favor "
"world class introduction and what is it?"
Well that could've been worse , she looks like she has a sense of humor
" i wanted to do some blood test, record my plasma ,weight, my DNA, skin samples etc, I need to be very thoroughly and well written .Don't worry though you wont have to do any of it i just want to know where we do those things"
"You do realize that we don't do any of that, why would we ever need to?"
"i figured that you at least still had the equipment of some sort on board, when my leg was forcefully amputated, i was told that a healing synthesizer was used so i thought you might have something like that here"
"We have all of those products were specially made because of the princes friend... what was her name , ah yes Myrtle. You see he gave us orders 100 or so years ago to make some concoctions in order to aid her. Its the same reason Gwen had it for when you got your leg eaten"
Oh so she was the one who made all the stuff for organic beings so i basically owe her my life for multiple things she created that normally shouldn't be here.
" First of all thank you for everything you do, second uhh is there no hope for my predicament?"
"predicament?, why do you even want all these test anyway"
How could i explain to someone that ,i wanted to see if my hypothesis about my bodies rapidly evolution becuase of god given powers was correct. I mean would it even matter, i doubt anyone really even cared. Ok lets see what she says its not like someone imprisoning's a chosen couldn't happen regardless .I cant keep it a secret forever its not like we don't exist.
"Ok so " I explained to her the part about how i think my body evolved and even bits and pieces about the Janus part. As a individual i had a right to share how much information i wanted to divulge.
"Sounds like a pretty crazy story buster .The only reason i would even slightly put up with believing that is because your the only human in our history who've managed to beat a single zyanite let alone 2 warriors and become a council members. The common folk even had their own theories that you were one of us just dressing up as as human for attention but real life is always weirder"
Ehh so that show they were rationalizing it up until this point... strange. Id take if it worked in my favor though.
"soo can you help me?"
"Of course i can help you, not that i have much choice. I'll have the worker drones to extend our lab with a private room specifically for your purpose's under the councils decree. I have a gist of equipment you want in there but you'll need to make a list of what you need ,better yet if you want it to be as thorough as you claim lets sit down and make some schematics.
"Ugh sounds like its going to be long and boring do we have to sit through this all" Ezra said
"Yeah I'm with you on this one I'm going to bail" Gwen said leaving the room
Buck wanted to stay with me and they almost let him. but i couldn't see a way of me carrying him to the next floor. Had to start doing some real weight training who knows maybe maybe ill be able to lift a couple tons in the future.
"Ok now that were alone lets get to business. Your story interested me quite a bit, from the way you made it sound."
"Oh you're interested, i thought the task might bore you i know you how guys feel about organic matter and things"
"What do you mean by you guys ,dont lump me in with my less educated peers. Someone as intelligent as me has no need for bigotry. Also a personal hobby of mine that includes studying life on other planet, how could i refuse if such a prime specimen came knocking on my door step"
huh she was the first person that i seen with a inclination of interest towards us, i wonder why.
"do you want to know why" she said in a passionate tone
Looks like i wont even have to ask, she'll tell me.
"Yes actually i am quite interested, everyone here seems to hate us why don't you?"
"it all began when i was a child roughly 4500 years ago i was going on a expedition with my father through a unknown world as they called it back then. This world is now know as Rogue planet D 34534 this was a purely under water world with with a below freezing surface temperature. That was the hottest the planet had ever been so we assumed there was no organic life on the planet. Then we submerged ourselves deep within the planets waters looking for anything valuable that we could take back. We were stopped far before our mission ever began the ocean waters was teeming with life. The sea floor was full of plants, and bottom feeders while the buffer zone had tons of aquatic life it was absolutely amazing. wanna see?" her tone was bordering zealous
did i want to see? I was already here so i didn't see why not
"do you have footage| i replied curiously
" any model that was made 5000 ago years or newer has a automatic record feature"
double clapping her hands holograph the size of the room appeared in front of us.
"every now and then i relive those memories to draw inspiration from"
The holograph began playing starting at an air ship. This looked like what i could describe as her room. walking out of the ship she began looking out over the railed balcony that oversaw the planet .The place looked surreal there were thick cloud of water vapor scattered high and low. I assumed there wasn't just water because the clouds were mixed with a orange and yellow hues to them, just making the planet look more dreamlike.
"the place is gorgeous"
Saying that she paused the video, wanting to say something but instead resumed it .Only now i could tell she was looking at me to gauge my reaction.
With the video resuming it showed a strong hand gently removing her from the metal railing.
"Tylor be careful if you fall into that mix of hydrogen ,oxygen, scapolite and radtkeite who knows what geological functions could be present underneath that ooze."
"Yes i know but its all so fascinating"
This figure probably was the father she mentioned earlier
"If the others here you saying that you already know how they'll shun you. Sometimes it best to keep secrets like this to yourself"
Giving her a hug he left to go attend to matters he deemed more important
sighing i could see that the younger her was still intrigued with what was going on in the ocean's surface. Hearing a alarm she left the balcony and made her way through a series of hallways were in which everyone on the ship was lined up, She got in the middle of two soldiers and was noticeable a head shorter then them .This is where i saw my first recognizable face Gwen was walking through the perfectly lined up soldiers giving orders on who does what.
"and you #349 will operate the mining rig on the eastern quadrant, while you # 786 will handle the magnesium extraction in sector 32"
When Gwen reached Tyler she said "You #293 you will be part of a recon team to meaning you get to confirm our theories on the state of life on this planet, should be a short mission consider yourself lucky"
Ack ,seeing this reminded me how extremely arrogant Gwen used to act, that just shows you never really know how you'll change in the future
YES SIR everyone in the room hollered making sure to be louder then the next guy
With the meeting over she moved to a special dropping pad on the rear end of the ship. She was surrounded by other robots like herself that were dispatched into the recon team. Attaching a long metal string around their waist each member started diving in one by one .When it was finally her turn she fell in with a silent plop
Her senses over whelmed by all the life forms she saw. What look to me to be jellyfish but in a different variety the size of these things alone looked to be hundreds of meters long dwarfing all the people in the area.Between each stinger were dozens of chubby snake like creatures with sailing fins roaming around .They looked like the occupied the fish niche because they were forming schools.
On the ground floor were giant bottom feeders that looked like pigs but crossed with a manatees the size of trucks ,each were eating plants and whatever unfortunate crustacean it managed to fit in toothless maw.
"Amazing "Tyler said both memory and current
, all her counter parts had already left when they verified there was life on the planet but her curiosity was getting the better of her ,dodging all the sea cows she found what looked like a cave .When she entered she saw eggs like a boatload of them along with a angry reptile creature that was the mix of a killer whale and a Nile monitor. She could tell there was danger just by the way it was sizing her up and tugged four times on her waist string. She was pulled back to the surface in quick succession.

Laying dazed on the solid craft floor she stayed there for a few minutes
"hey you alright ,we saw that you took a little longer then normal" said
The voice came from one of the other divers in the room but before i could get a good look at him she stopped the video
"just as good as i remembered ... soo what do you think?"
"That was wonderous everything looked so alien, it made me want to do some exploring of my own"
"your words bring me a great deal of joy, its not often that i can have a friend who shares in my love of other species, in fact never. Whenever someone mentions a different planet to me there is always some type of motive in mind."
"well you have one now" i said extending my arm out in a hand shaking
returning the handshake like Alex louis Armstrong "as someone who i now consider in my sphere of friends ill make sure to personally oversee your project. I know you're on a time constraint so ill make it down in 3 days"
"thank you Tyler, that'd be wonderful"
With that being done I finally left going back to my room.
clop clop clop
"get back here mister"
clop clop clop clop clop
i heard all this on the other side of the door
I could already imagine what was happening on the other side but seeing it in person was 100% better, Upon entering i bore witness to some mayhem, Buck had spilled his water and was tracking his food throughout the room. Either he was insanely agile or Ezra was just being clumsy but every time she tried to catch him he would make a un predictable movement breaking her ankles in the process.
Gwen was sitting on the couch looking like she gave up a long time ago , the site was hilarious,
with the sound of the door opening Buck misdirected Ezra one last time and headed straight towards me. 500 pounds hysterical deer force running at you and your only options were to get out of the way.
Slightly moving to the left i thought Buck was going to make a mad dash for the corridors but instead the huge dude actually choose to hid behind me making a loud sniffing noise .i missed you too buddy
Ezra ran towards buck secondarily towards me "YES finally catch him before he runs away"
I don't think he was running away just getting away from you
"he's not going anywhere calm down. see " i pointed at him behind me
"good, now lets make him eat "
BAAA Buck cried in deer
"i don't think he wants to eat" i said
"I don't care what he wants , he needs to eat!"
Ezra's control freak nature was rearing it's ugly head ,id give her credit for being normal 3 or so days in a row. It's going to take time so ill explain it to her again.
"Ezra buck has feelings, likes and wants just like you. That means you cant force him to do anything he doesn't want to do."
"oh yeah watch me" and she took a lunge for Buck
Standing in front of my deer son i put a stop to this crazy women .Holding Ezra back i said " you cant expect him to listen to you if it goes against his natural instincts this isnt like a domesticated creature in the wild Spearhead elk don't have to listen to anyone so you have to expect him to do what he wants, remember he's not your pet but your child"
"no child of mine will be disobedient!" she switch gears from power hungry pet own to overbearing mother in a spilt second.
"how many times have you fed him today?" i asked trying to figure out the situation
"oh i just want him to get big and strong and only"
"14... 14 damm times" This time Gwen said with a look of horror across her face
I was shocked, i assumed Ezra to be the safer parent to leave him with rather then Gwen she was the one reading a deer book after all. This poor boy was suffering at the hands of undereducated well meaning idiots , feeding him that many times in a single day was criminal .I wanted to scold them but i had another concern , any animal that ate all that food in a day would have to use the bathroom sooner or later, i commended him for his restraint.
"ok first things first we need to go outside... NOW!"
"And im the control freak? Ezra said looking for a cheap victory
Obviously not understanding animal bowel movements, i went to someone i thought was more credible Gwen
"Gwen please i don't have time to explain!!"
Looking at me she sighed and just got up picking up buck
" this better make sense when we get out side"
These girls! they had no idea that the floor was in danger of being stained with something unspeakable .I can tell we might not making it just by looking at Bucks face i needed to do something.
"Be careful run at a moderate jog, please" i told Gwen
Looking over at buck i said "Be strong you're better then that"
i prayed he got the idea, when we reached the fields he sprinted for the forest, that was a relief for us both.
"hey where is he going" Ezra said
I need to explain basic biological functions to her lets start with this. Ill spare you the details of my explanation of turds physics .By the end of the conversation they both seem appalled.
"oh so i was overfeeding him, you could've just said that you know"
"i could but the way things were looking i only had one option that would avert disaster"
hmph ,i don't know why they didn't mention that in the book i read" scowling as she said it
"no one ever thinks that is the type of issue you'll face, that one was a no brainer"
Buck returned a few minutes ago but since we were already here we just let him do his thing.
"So how'd your picnic with the scientist chick go?"
I was surprised Gwen didn't know her name, but even in her memories their interaction was only brief.
"It was amazing actually she was very intelligent and had a huge interest in life on other planets. In a way she kind of of reminded me of myrtle."
"yeah she has that effect, you haven't slept yet are fine?"
she was the queen of changing the subject
I was rejuvenated weirdly enough
"Yeah I'm good, enough to train with even"
"mhh I'll take you up on that offer"
After a few hours of rigorous training i called a end to it ,i wasn't feeling tired or sleepy i just wanted a change of pace. It felt like i was in a loop these last few days. I wanted to do something new, a couple of ideas migrated their way into my head. Grabbing Gwen by the arm i started dragged her over to Ezra ,Buck was eager to join the party too.
"Hey don't you guys feel like you we've been doing the same thing for a while now?"
"its only been a few weeks hun, oh right that to you must be forever" ezra said
"It is forever, and yes I'm getting bored of fighting everyday."
"well you need the training" Gwen said
"That's true as well but hoewabout we mix it up?
"what do you have in mind?" Ezra replied
"we can go hiking through mount miwakala or do some sight seeing at the great burning valley"
"That's your idea of vacation, you do know we're both ladies"
The whole point was to spend time together that didn't involved smashing each others face but i guess what she said was true? I didn't see what that had to do with anything though
"i want to go Gwen" said
nice one down one to go
"tch really, what could you possible gain from climbing a mountain or seeing a field of burning plants"
"fun" i said "something to change it up a little"
"Yeah we've never done those things on this planet"
"C'mon Ezra its not that bad we have been doing a lot of the same things recently where's your adventurous spirit"
"i like staying at home were its comfortable, and what about Buck
using our kid as an excuse, Classic. I was going to say staying here couldn't possibly be that entertaining but Gwen just started making chicken sounds.
bkk bk bacock
no way that was going to work both of them were hella old .Simple stupid provocations like that only worked on kids.
"what's so wrong about staying here?" Ezra said in defense
"Your scared I've known you forever, you're scared of the new experiences."
"am not"
this was getting childish lets put a end to this before it got even dumber
"stop i Gwen its fine we can force her to do anything , she says no and i respect that .Plus it can just be me and you... so which one sounded interesting to you"
Ezra seemed conflicted but hey she was grown and i didn't want to make her do what she didn't want to just wasn't in me.
"i was thinking about the burning field"
"that was a great choice the fields burn blue in the morning and white in the nighttime its considered one of the 4 wonders of this world"
"you guys were going to leave me, you bitches . ok fine ill come"
Well that was easy
"Glad to have you with us" i said giving her a gentle kiss on the forehead
That seemed to absolve all prior baby rage she had stored in the chamber for us.
"What about buck will he come with us too?"
"yeah i dont see why not"
"are you sure isnt Buck too young"
"a 500 pound baby, and beside its good to teach em about the world young" i added
"well you are the organic expert so ill trust you"
"i promise you guys wont regret it is should be a great next couple of days" i said feeling the good times coming
"i don't want to come I'm doing you a favor that's all" Ezra crossed her arms
Would it kill her to be honest? Knowing her it just might.
give her a tender hug all i said was "thanks"
giving me Mphh with her cheeks burning red but in her language that meant your welcome.
