The First Descent

It had been about a week, according to Rae’s sleeping habits, and Markar and her were finally preparing to descend to the new world. The time they had spent together since their last kiss had gone by surprisingly fast. Rae, who was a loner by nature, found Markar’s quiet disposition pleasant, and even though the two didn’t talk constantly, she still found that his attention usually centered on her. She would catch him watching her out of the corner of his eye most times, and he wasn’t hesitant to initiate a casual physical contact between them anymore. Rae often found Markar brushing up against her as he walked past. They were still sleeping in the same bed, and every night the man seemed to be inching closer to her.

Rae was uncertain how she felt about the intimate actions. On the one hand, as a social creature she craved the physical contact of another being and the comfort it could provide, but she wasn’t sure how much of her acceptance over the situation was her natural fondness for Markar, and how much of it was forced through their odd situation. She was of half a mind to accept it all with open arms, and the other half wanted to fight off her feelings with tooth and nail. Either way, Rae felt her emotions twisting inside of her with the force of a hurricane. She just didn’t know which way the storm was headed yet. She glanced uneasily at Markar when Rae realized in which direction her thoughts were turning. “

Is that a sword?” she said in disbelief.

“Yes.” Markar was hooking a large broadsword onto his belt. They both had put on bodysuits to protect themselves from the elements of the planet they were to descend to. Apparently, what him and Rae had been running around in were essentially Morian underclothes. Yet again Rae was unsure how he had found a suit in her size, but she was grateful for it. The fabric was loose enough to move around in comfortably, but fitted. If she had to wear one in Markar’s size, she would be drowning in material.

“Why are you bringing a sword? Wouldn’t it be easier to bring a gun?”

“You never know what you will face when encountering a new planet. It is standard protocol to bring a sword, among other things, for the first descent.” Markar replied automatically as he continued to prepare.

Rae’s mouth dropped open in sudden understanding. “No wonder nobody on Earth took you seriously.” she muttered to herself. Markar had apparently heard her, because he glared in her general direction. The alien had come to her world claiming only peace and alliance, but no one had believed him. Her superiors had spent months trying to wring his real motives out of him, to no avail. After spending so much time with Markar, Rae was convinced that they had been wrong. He really had come in peace, and only peace. But it was understandable that no one would believe that of an alien with a broadsword.
