"When will I be given my own serrator?" You asked krel. In spite of your horrible lying skills, you were good at not drawing any unwanted attention to yourself.

He only hummed in acknowledgement, you could tell that he wasn't listening to you. He made himself busy with the mothership, halo screens popped up every now and again.

Grunts came from Aja as she fought with the mother blank. The blank was clearly winning, she dodged all of the princess' advances. Aja had a lot of confidence if she thought she could beat the training bot.

The bot mocked Aja in her sweet and sugary tone "could you let me get one hit " It would be no fun if the robot let her win but Aja still asked.

They then continued to spar. You pushed yourself into a standing position getting up off the ground. With short strides you made your way to Krel.

Your arms wrapped around his middle. You made sure that they were snuggly under his first set of arms so that you were hugging him from behind.

Now you just need to get his attention. A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. "Krel" you leaned on his shoulder tilting your head slightly consequently speaking into his ear.

"Ask Varvatos, I'm doing something important, and you aren't helping." He peeled your hands off of him, using his unfair advantage of two extra arms. Why did he have to have four of them?

Well, that stung a bit. He hasn't pushed you away before, he was always so welcome to your touches. The boy had practically taken your first kiss, something that was meant to be magical and shared with someone special yet he bumps you away for an innocent hug.

"Could you go a bit easier?" With you now out of his way, he was able to speak to Aja. "The mothership sustained enough damage" He went back to his work and Aja went back to her training session, ignoring her brother.

"Little brother, i got one in on the training blank" She had swept the blank off its feet sure but it was back up while Aja was distracted, throwing her off balance and towards Krel. Good thing you moved out of the way. You timed it perfectly when Aja and krel tumbled to the floor.

They recovered rather quickly and spoke to each other like they both had not just eaten dirt. The Humans had such interesting sayings.

While they were distracted you went over to the training bot. She was back to sweeping with the broom she used as her weapon. She really was a robot to be feared.

"You want to test your luck?" Intimidatingly she spun the broom around in her fingers. You stood your ground, taking advantage of the time before Aja and krel finished their conversation.

The blank took the first hit. She swung the broom towards your legs hoping to make you lose your balance. You took a step back before her weapon could reach you.

She took another swing at you, your head this time. You balanced your weight on your right foot and caught her makeshift weapon.

You tugged at it and she lost her grip, leaving the broom to hit the wall. It fell off the platform and into oblivion. You don't understand why Aja was having such a hard time defeating it, her movements were sloppy and predictable.

You threw your dominant fist out in a punch to her face. Your hand collided with metal, it sent her tumbling back. You used that distraction to sweep your leg under hers.

With a thud she fell onto the platform, it was that easy. "Yeesh, what happened here?" Aja's voice reached your ears.

Her asking meant she didn't see which was good because you did not need to be asked questions based on suspicions. It would seem a bit weird to them, poor little (y/n) just magically learning to fight.

"The blank bots were crudely programmed" It was a quick lie but even under your cover you didn't take well to having a crowd. Your response prompted a hurt reply from Krel. You knew he worked hard on them and it's always fun to mess with him.

"Buckle up because we are going to..." She hit your shoulder a bit too roughly. She has been hostile toward you since the latest holiday. Although you had talked it out she was still kind of off.

She paused to build up suspense.

"Driver's education."

That was some very clever wordplay
