47 Alpha (2/2)

Mutys was proud of his creation. ”Good. Oh, I almost forgot ta name ye.” Mutyx stroked his beard as he thought of a good name. ”Aha, I got it. Your name shall be Alpha.”

Alpha was happy that he got a name. ”Thank you, master. My name shall now be Alpha.”

Alpha moved his body around as if he was born with it, even though he had just been born. His wings raised, a small gust of wind appearing.

”Alright. Alpha, for your first task, ye shall take me an' Garrik ta tha floating city o' tha ancient ones,” Mutyx ordered.

Alpha moved his head up and down, nodding. He had never nodded before, but for some reason, he knew that it meant saying yes. ”Understood, but I don't know where this floating city is.”

”Don't worry about that. I'll lead the way. I just need you to fly us there.” Garrik said.

”I can do that. Master built me for this reason,” Alpha said with a proud expression. He lowered his metallic body to the ground, so Mutyx and Garrik could get on. Suddenly, mechanical sounds were heard, gears turning, and Alpha's back changed.

Alpha's usually sleek and aerodynamic back changed into a saddle for two people. The seat was even soft, so the riders' would have a comfortable ride.

”Wou' ye look at that, it worked.” Mutyx made his way over to Alpha, climbing on his back and sitting down on the saddle.

The saddle was brown, decorated with golden features.

Garrik was once again amazed at what his master did. His mouth was open with awe as he looked at Alpha.

”Come on! What be ye waiting for?” Mutyx asked.

”Oh! Sorry.” Garrik approached Alpha and climbed on him, being careful not to fall. He sat on the second saddle, right behind Mutyx.

”Ok, where do I go?” Alpha asked Garrik.

Garrik looked around as he rubbed his chin. Outside of the mountain range, he saw a vast green forest. ”Hmmm, go that way,” he said, pointing at the forest.

Alpha looked at the forest and nodded. He lifted his body, standing on four legs. Gusts of wind appeared as Alpha flapped his wings, trying to fly. His big and bulky body lifted into the air as he waved his wings.

Alpha flew upwards at a fast rate. Very soon, he arrived at the clouds. Even though this was his first time flying, it was like he had this body for many years. He turned his body to the forest and started heading in its direction.

Mutyx let out a loud and long laugh. His creation worked, and there were no problems. He looked down at the ground, the trees so small because of how high they were.

Unlike Mutyx, Garrik couldn't laugh. Even though he knew he wouldn't die, it was still scary to be so high up. If he fell, he would regenerate everything, but he would feel all the pain. After a few minutes of flying, he began to enjoy it. He was still a bit scared, but he was getting used to it.

Garrik's hair, and Mutyx's hair, and long white beard flapped in the air as they flew over the forest with high speed.

”If we keep going at this speed, we'll arrive in the city in no time,” Garrik commented.
