The Animata merely watched his new 'companion' rise from their slumber, he did not flinch at all when she brought up her arms to attack, as if he knew that she wouldn't do anything to him. Her questions were numerous, yet easy to answer, [color=bc8dbf]"Calm yourself, child."[/color] He commanded with a smooth, metallic voice. [color=bc8dbf]"I am Ardon. And I have awaken you from your slumber to serve me. As a machine of war, you will obey me, for I have allowed you to survive.[/color] His voice staying authoritative as he spoke. He paused for a moment, to let it all sink in, but to also think of a name for his new subordinate. Ardon was merely a name that just popped into mind when he spoke. [color=bc8dbf]"Your name is Ketta, and your purpose is to follow me. Guard me. As I make the world anew. To save those who cannot survive on their own like we have.[/color] His vision of 'saving' was rather.. skewed. He turned away, beginning to walk toward the opening in the cave, curious as to what is beyond the trickling light. [color=bc8dbf]"Come Ketta, we must begin our mission."[/color] He ordered firmly. He was very confident for someone who had no knowledge of anything in this world, but he will soon find out everything. It had taken them a stretch or two to make it to the end of the cave, their metallic bodies being greeted by the afternoon sun and a soft breeze that pushed about the desert sand. Ardon could feel energy surge through him as the rays beat down on him. Something approached them. A humanoid figure. It soon came into view, to reveal another. A pair of humans. They looked at the metal beings with some shock and awe. [color=82ca9d]"W-who are you?"[/color] The man asked, stuttering before the tall inhuman pair. [color=bc8dbf]"Silence fleshling! I will be the one asking questions."[/color] Ardon bellowed as he stepped forward, towering over the man. [color=bc8dbf]"Who is your master? Why are you here?"[/color] He questioned back. Before the man could open his mouth, his companion, a woman, threw out something from her hand. A fire...ball? Before the attack hit Ardon, it dissipated harmlessly, the magical energy flowing into his core. His gaze moved to her attacker. [color=bc8dbf]"Ketta. End her."[/color] He ordered. Survival 101. Don't attack the person in command.
