Let's start over

"We started off on the wrong foot in the beginning," he offered his hand in a shake. "How about we start over?"

Lank looked down at Nix's hand, skeptical of the reason for the change of heart. Why would he want to be friends with him? Nothing added up.

"Are you sure this isn't a trick?" He looked wearily at his hand.

Nix sweat dropped, even if the mission hadn't told him to do this, there was no way he was going to let him off like that. It would have been delayed but he was still going to do it.

After his friendship with Drui had been severed, it had made a great impact on how he viewed that word and people, but he had decided that he was going to take this friendship in good faith.

Lank was a loner, treated differently because of his unique existence. In his perspective, this was the perfect recipe for friendship.
