————————————

Your body hurt

Your lungs stung as your breathed in and out rapidly. Even a slight huff felt like the walls of them were collapsing. Wounds covered every inch of your body as your feet beat harshly into the ground, your legs wobbling with each thud from them.

You never thought you would run for your life, especially from your people.

Banished and chased after by your tribe because you wanted to love someone. Monsters

“I think I heard them, over there!”

You gasped as you murmured a slight “damn it” under your breath. You picked up speed, ignoring the pain that sparked throughout your body.

You could hear them catching up, and that thought was only proven when you turned around.

There, you saw four or five guys, with torches and spears, chasing after you as they yelled for you to stop running and calling you a coward.

But you didn’t stop

No matter how bad it hurt.

You turned a corner only to enter into a open area of the jungle, a giant circle where there was no more paths to take except going through the tree covered land itself.

You turned back around to see that the men had already entered the area, trapping you into that corner of the jungle.

“Thought you could get away, you coward?” One of the men taunted.

Their spears all pointed at you, as you could feel your emotions start to bubble up.

“Awe look at them, they are shaking. The poor baby must be scared.”

They all laughed at you as your body started to shake, your legs wobbling uncontrollably as tears started to form in the corner of your eyes.

“Don’t worry, we’ll make your death quick.” The man in the middle spoke up as he raised his spear.

You put your hands up to your face, preparing for your death to come.

But it never did.

Instead, a loud growl that almost shook the area did.

You opened your eyes, not realizing you had them closed, and lifted up your head. Everyone started to look around the jungle to see where the source of that noise came from.

But all was silent again.

The man in the middle was about to take a strike at you again but a louder growl came. But this time, it was joined by a bunch of spears.

One of the spears hit the man in the middle’s leg, causing him to scream in pain as he ran away in fear. The other three started to back away until a shadowy figure jumped out of a bush and slamming onto the ground in front of them.

Crushing the man that was running away beneath him.

You gasped as you stared at the scene in front of you. The giant, shadowy figure let out another deathly growl. One that sent a shiver up your spin.

“W-what, what the hell are you?” One of the men asked as they held their spear shaking.

Before you could see the brutal scene in front of you, another figure jumped out in front of you. You nearly screamed but a gloved, torn hand closed your mouth. The figure bent down lower for you to see it’s face. It was a face you recognized too well.

“Jupiter!” You softly exclaimed, as the skeletons crooked teeth merged into a smile.

You suddenly heard the snapping of bones as Jupiter turned around. You tried to get a look at what was happening, but you couldn’t, as Jupiter swiped you up into his arms and hurriedly carried you away into the jungle.

You turned around to see that he was carrying you into a excluded area in the jungle that was only lit by a lantern that they had found. Once you arrived, he placed you down on the ground only for you to turn around and wrap your arms around his neck. Giving him kisses all over his cheek.

“Oh Jupiter! I am so happy to see you!” You exclaimed as you didn’t realize the tears that were falling down your face.

“I Am Very Happy To See That You Are Well Also, My Bunny.” He stated as he gave you a kiss on your own cheek, a slight burnt-orange colored hue on his cheek bones.

You both stayed like that for a while, until another familiar face arrived.

Mars.

A man that was covered in blood as he held a beat-up spear in his hand. You turned your head around and ran to him, not caring if the blood had gotten all over you.

“Mars!” You almost knocked him down as you kissed him in a similar fashion as you did to Jupiter. Though he did not seem to mind as he chuckled.

“Hey, sweet meat, I hope I didn’t worry ya too much while I was gone.”

You reclined back as you cupped his cheeks. Feeling the painful sting at the corner of your eyes.

“Oh, Mars…What are we going to do.” You stated as you could feel the hot tears pour down your face.

Mars gives you a sadden look as he cupped your cheeks. Jupiter coming up behind you, wrapping his long arms around your waist.

“It Will Be Okay Bunny.” Jupiter cooed as he nuzzled his face into your back.

“Yea, we will find a way to make this work.” Mars stated as he braced you into a hug, placing his chin on top of your head.

“What if it doesn’t?”

“It will, we’ll be by your side any time sweet heart.”

“Yes! We Will Be Their For Any Challenge You Go Through, Bunny! Trust Us, It Will Work Out.”

Love is a faded enigma, no matter whoever in the Stardroids you're talking about, their overall understanding of such deep humane emotions are rocky at best and scarcely undependable at worst. And they only get more erratic down the line. Lords knows if Terra or Sunstar are even capable of it, knowing their immoral views on existence as a whole. I don't think I can get any crystal clearer than that.

I see Jupiter as a nonchalant little shit, but an intelligent one. His comrades know to never underestimate Jupiter, as do his brothers, he is a commander under Sunstar for a reason. Even Sunstar himself gives Jupiter points for craftiness in messy situations. Prospective and blunter then direct. And while he loves annoying the shit of people he couldn't care less for, no one in this universe can out annoy Mercury in a tolerance battle. Mercury pulls all kinds of bastard shit, constantly pushing the limits of his abilities to the point where his brothers should know better by now.

But Mercury is hardly ever dry of ideas, much to his brother's obvious dismay.

Seeing cheap tricks like that are second nature to the Stardroids, being emotional and physical manipulator themselves, especially in regard to Jupiter. Honestly, he was probably on the verge of something amiss long before you may have started considering revealing your true inhumanity, admitting your "secret". His sensors went haywire in each moment he noticed you, in every moment he noticed you. He takes pride in their accuracy, knowing where his foes were at all times, a bird you could never sneak up on. But it gets irritating real fast, because he sees you, right in front of him, but not exactly sure what he is supposed to be looking for.

A nonstop nagging feeling at the back of his very core, a triggering emotion; remain alert and ever vigilant, and he would be foolish to distrust instinct when they were the entire reason he survived as long as he did with his brothers.

Perplexing. He'd be confused on why you hid it, considering Jupiter himself is an alien and an outsider to humanity. Different people, different situations but same circumstances, only yours are reversed. He would've figured you'd tell right away as you became better acquainted with one another. But he won't judge, nonetheless (It won't be overlooked you hide things however...) you have your reasons for your secrets, as does he. Can't say Jupiter expected a "dragon" however. He expected nonnative, another alien to this planet. How interesting, a mythical creature of many parts and powers, wandering a world of advanced technologies.

It is hard to blend in with the humans? What are your views on the lowlifes? Does anyone else know your secret?

Suddenly your bombarded with questions, curiosity getting the better of him. But it isn't overwhelming, just genuine excitement. You don't blame him.

In this world you're a myth, a folktale told by hikers too stupid and full of themselves to heed any danger warnings, meant to terrify children into staying in their kitty beds and listening to their parents. An extraordinary dream slept on by soldiers-then 'reimagined' into reality to woo their princesses.

How ironic, an inhuman and an alien together like this.

Strange, but Jupiter doesn't dislike it one bit. Unexpected, but welcome anyway. These are the surprises Jupiter looks forward too, not the pathetic "attempts" by Mercury. It is confusing as it is intriguing, it's a fact Sunstar would be very very curious in such a reserved yet powerful lifeform. He looks at you with the intense gaze of a scientist who found a new discovery, something unknown to study. And oh boy, Jupiter really wants to study you.

Though Jupiter supposes there are others better suited for more in-depth operations, for special situations like these, much to his disappointment.

You're everything humans deny, everything they hate to accept. Hes sure that's in the list of reasons you separate your true self from them, humans are a judgmental species, they barely tolerate each other as it is. You're bound to have tricks actually worthwhile up your sleeve. Useful tricks. Pretty fitting for you to be with a destroyer, isn't it? He has the urge to observe you inside and out, learn what differs your mind from the humans. Too see what makes your bones tick and quake will bring him a satisfying informative, knowing how brittle and tough you are as an individual. He wants to unwrap every scale, look under every fang in your maw, all to find your most inner functions and nerves. As long as you allow it of course, he is fond of you after all.

And it is because of his fondness over you does he ever put any effort in maintaining your relationship. One thing is for sure, he won't think of you any less, as a dragon or anything else. Though in a way, he is sort of glad you're inhuman. Humans have a nasty habit of making everything they see and touch complicated, don't get him wrong, he never hates a challenge, but he can't get a break.
