Trust

Creed's POV

"Are you sure about this Creed?" asked Anemone

Everyone was in a tent listening to my proposal.

"Yes I'm sure." I replied

Anemone sighed and looked at the others.

"Creed, look around you. We barely have people to even fill up this camp." said Anemone, "If we spread out more we'll be crushed for sure."

"That's why I'm only asking for a small group to come with me." I said, "I have a bigger goal now that I've finished finding humans."

"What's that?" asked Anemone

"I want to reclaim this world." I said

Everyone in the tent looked at each other and started chatting.

"Creed, let's take one step at a time." said Anemone

"I am. I know it sounds crazy but I have a few stepping stones I need to take." I replied, "The first is retaking Japan."

"Creed you can't be serious." said Avery

"I'm serious." I replied

"How are we going to reclaim Japan when you want to bring a small group?" asked Avery

"I'm not going to retake Japan with that. I'm going to scout out every acre of land." I said

Everyone around was a bit uneasy.

"Look I know you guys feel really uneasy about this and I understand but I don't have to take a lot of people, it'll just be a few of you." I said

"I'm going with him." said 2B

"That was to be expected." sighed Anemone, "If you scout out Japan, how long do you think it'll take?"

"I don't know. Probably another two years?" I questioned

Anemone thought about it but shook her head.

"I'm going to need some time to decide." she said

I sighed and nodded. Everyone dispersed out of the tent so I left the tent and found a place to sit. 2B came and sat next to me and she seemed to be observing.

"Are you okay?" asked 2B

"I am, I just want to do the things before I die." I said

I coughed a bit and sighed.

"I don't have that much time left." I implied

2B held out her hand in front of me so I took it and we interlocked fingers.

"I only want to spend it with you." said 2B

"So do I." I replied

She sat on my lap so I hugged her from behind and rested my head on her shoulder.

"Do you think we'll discover something new?" I asked

2B looked at me and began to play with my hair.

"Can I tell you something?" she asked

"Yea what is it?" I asked

"Ever since the day we found you, my life took a drastic turn. Before we found you, I thought I wouldn't be able to change anything." said 2B, "I hated it, my life was like a cycle. After death, I go back to fighting with no rest. The only light I had in my life was Nines."

"You must have been lonely." I added

"I was very lonely, only Nines was there. But I felt like there were so many things I could be doing instead of fighting all the time. That's when you came into my life. You helped me understand the importance of living on this world." said 2B

"I'm glad I mean that much to you." I said

I hugged her and she kissed my cheek.

"Oh babe I have a question." I said

"I'm really not used to the babe." chuckled 2B

"I think it suits your cute face." I said

She chuckled a bit.

"Anyways, so I've been going through a couple history lessons with Popola and Devola and they said something about this ark." I said

"The ark..." whispered 2B

She got up and brought me to my room and we sat on the couch.

"When I died, I transferred my memories to A2 so she had to do the job. But something happened which caused a missile inside the city here to activate. At first she thought it was a missile aimed straight at the moon which contained the last information of humanity." said 2B, "But instead it launched an ark which contained human information into space."

"An ark in space?" I questioned, "Then if we get it we can get information."

"But it's in space." said 2B

"Right." I sighed

I rubbed my eyes and sighed.

"Creed your treatment is ready." called out Lisa

I gasped in excitement so I hurried over to her and she gave me a small plastic container with some pills.

"Take it twice everyday but when you take one wait 6 hours before taking another." said Lisa

"Okay got that. Thanks." I said, "How many pills?"

"One." replied Lisa

I took one right away and drank some water. I didn't expect to feel better right away but I was wrong. Once it went down into my system I felt a sudden relief, as if my lungs were cleared out.

"Whoa..." I whispered in surprise

"The effect will wear out in 6 hours. Take it wisely." said Lisa

I nodded and left to meet up with 2B who was back in my room. Once I entered she looked at me and I jumped on her and laughed.

"The treatment is working. The effect lasts for 6 hours." I excitedly said

"I'm glad." she replied

She hugged me and pulled me into her and we began making out like wild animals. Our saliva dripped out of our mouths, tongues aggressively fighting for dominance. But since I was submissive, 2B took over by flipping me onto my back and continued kissing me. Her fingers dug into my hair and I held her hips gently as she continued to make out with me.

After about 8 minutes of nonstop making out, we parted and there was a thick strand of saliva between our lips. 2B licked her lips and using her fingers, wiped my lips for me.

"Creed, I want to go somewhere with you." said 2B

"Where?" I asked

30 minutes later

Creed's POV

"Whoa...." I gasped

I stood on a thick steel beam which was hanging over this crane which was overlooking the ocean, city and factory. I was careful with my footing since I could die if I take one wrong step.

"This is such a nice view." I said

2B hugged me from behind and gently led me to the edge of the beam.

"Do you trust me Creed?" asked 2B

"Yes I do." I replied

"Even if your life's on the line?" asked 2B

"Huh?" I questioned

She spun me around and pushed me off and I fell off the beam but she caught my vest.

"2B?" I questioned in fear

"Do you trust me?" asked 2B

"I do." I replied

She smiled and I smiled back in fear but then 2B let me go and I screamed as I plummeted down towards the factory. But then I felt something pull my belt and I stopped falling and now I was swinging in the air. I looked and saw that there was a hook with a rope attached to my belt. I let out a sigh and laughed a bit realizing that it was a prank.

2B pulled me back and I smiled a bit, my heart was still racing a bit but 2B smiled and hugged me making me feel a bit safer in her arms.

"You didn't have to scare me like that." I said

"I was testing your trust." replied 2B

"I know but that was a very dangerous way to do something like that." I laughed

"Okay I won't do it again." said 2B

"It was fun though, just give me a warning next time." I said, "Oh babe, I want to go somewhere."

"Where?" asked 2B

I just grabbed her hand and led her somewhere for about 25 minutes before I got to the cave. We entered and made our way through the passageways until we got to the opening where there were a bunch of lunar tears glowing in the dark.

"You really like Lunar Tears." said 2B

"I do. I want to make a lot of memories here." I said

"Do you now?" questioned 2B, "Then let's make some."

She sat down on the ground where there was an opening where we could lay down. She tapped on her lap so I laid on the ground and rested my head on her lap.

"This feels nice." I said

She smiled and began playing with my face and I laid there looking at 2B's smile.

"Oh by the way." I remembered

I reached into my pocket and pulled out a box that had the dead lunar tear 2B gave me. I opened it and slowly picked it up.

"You kept the lunar tear I gave you?" questioned 2B

I nodded and she smiled.

"You're so cute." said 2B

I chuckled and she kissed me.

"You said you wanted to make memories here." said 2B, "What kind of memories?"

"Well, lovely ones. Memories I won't forget about." I replied

She smiled and hugged me.

The next day

Creed's POV

I yawned and woke up to see 2B sleeping next to me. I felt the cool breeze through the window and the sun shining through.

2B and I have been having sex literally every night so we always fall asleep late and naked. I got off the bed and covered 2B with the blankets before heading over to the bathroom to wash up. Since I couldn't wake up 2B without her pod I decided to cook for her.

I grabbed some eggs from the fridge and began cooking some scrambled eggs. I made enough portions for the both of us and put them on the plate.

"Pod can you wake up 2B for me?" I asked

"On it." he replied

He flew into the room and about a few seconds later, 2B came in wearing just an oversized shirt.

"Good morning." I said

"Good morning. I was going to make breakfast." said 2B

"Oh sorry but I wanted to do it today." I replied while smiling

I began to make some pancakes and took out some syrup. I began to set up the plates and placed them on the island. I took a seat next to her and she enjoyed the food.

"So good." said 2B

I smiled and suddenly I heard something grunt behind me. I shrieked in fear as I turned to see Pooh sitting there behind me.

"P-Pooh? What are you doing here?" I gasped

"Oh I brought her in." replied 2B, "I cleaned her up too."

"When?" I asked

"After you passed out." replied 2B

"Oh I could have done it but thanks." I replied

I pat Pooh's stomach and she grunted and scratched her snout.

"Are you hungry?" I asked

She nodded and I pulled out some meat from the freezer. I continued eating my food with 2B who seemed to be finishing up.

"I'm going to do the dishes." said 2B

"No, I'm doing it. You get ready and dress up." I said while smiling

She smiled and nodded so she put her plate in the sink before leaving to wash up and get dressed. I finished up and began doing the dishes when I heard a whistle.

'That's the alarm.'

I quickly stopped washing, quickly gave the now melted meat to Pooh and got dressed. 2B was already done so she jumped out of the window and I followed. I grabbed onto her Pod and he set me down on the ground.

"To the east gate!" yelled Anemone

I had to put on my holster while running so I kind of fell behind.

"Come on Creed." said 2B

"Sorry sorry." I quickly said

"Idiot, you should be doing it faster." said Avery as she ran past me.

"Sorry ma'am." I quickly said

I tightened the holster and now I was able to run properly. I got to the east barricade and everyone was already there.

"What's going on?" I asked Josiah

"Our snipers spotted something." he replied

"It's not a machine though." said Ella

"Not a machine?" I questioned

"Creed." whispered George

I looked up and I saw a figure, a human figure approaching us but the figure looked injured. He or she was limping almost like a zombie.

"Ma'am what is it?" I asked

She looked into her sniper and her eyes slightly widened.

"It's either a human or an android but she's badly hurt." said Avery

"Everyone stay here and cover me." I said

I climbed over the barricade and cautiously approached her. I held my gun in my hand ready to aim and shoot but I still had my finger off the trigger just in case.

"Ma'am are you okay?" I called out

She didn't stop moving so I slowly raised my gun.

"Ma'am please stop moving." I said

But she continued to walk towards me. I checked her hands and she wasn't holding anything. She was about 6 feet away from me and I slowly began to lower my gun. I was about to grab her but she fell on the floor.

I signaled the others to get me a medic as I checked on her. She had bruises everywhere and she looked like she hadn't eaten for days. I was about to touch her when I heard chatter coming from the forest kingdom.

I quickly aimed my gun at the tree line and saw a couple more androids, all male come out. They were dressed up like thugs and were carrying weapons. They all saw me and their facial expressions dropped.

"Hey who are you?" I asked

They all turned and ran back into the woods.

"After them!" yelled Anemone
