Peace Was Always An Option

White is the color of peace and harmony.

It symbolizes light, goodness, innocence, purity, safety...and most importantly, hope.

And that was the color of the flag that the machine was holding in its small floating ship.

9S and 2B were just about to exit out of the amusement park until this mysterious machine appeared right in front of them, holding a white flag behind him as he then spoke to them.

"You defeated broken machine. You saved us."

What's this now...?

9S thought in his head as he then spoke to 2B, who continued to stare at the robot with a dark glare.

"This thing is awfully verbose for a machine..."

"We repay you. Come to our village."

The robot claimed. This made 9S very suspicious...him and 2B just destroyed an evil machine, what would they want to do with a machine like this one? Could it be that it wanted something...?
Did it want to get revenge perhaps?

"It could be a trap. Still, we should at least head over there and gather data, right?"

2B thought about it for a moment before nodding her head, her short white hair swaying.

"We shall go to your village. Show us the way."

"Follow me."

The floating machine said as it then flew ahead of them, the two androids now following after it to where it was taking them. As they crossed several bridges, 2B looked up at the orange-red sky, spotting missiles flying above. 9S noticed this and explained to her that it was supplies being sent up to the moon for the humans and to the Bunker. 2B understood and the two continued to follow the floating machine with the flag. That's when they realized that they were deep in the woods, trees covered their surroundings as they heard birds chirping and saw several mooses prowling the area. 9S then smiled at a moose who was being followed by her baby, the small moose wobbling as it tried to learn how to walk.

Looks like another life has been brought into this world...

"Hey, 9S?"

"Hm? Yes, 2B? What's up?"

"So why don't the machines or the aliens who created them, attack the Bunker directly? They originally came here from outer space, right?"

"Well, there are a few theories about that..."

Theories that even we YoRHa androids can't solve...

"But no one knows for sure. Hard to tell what an alien is thinking, you know?"

9S then chuckles, only to stop when he realized 2B didn't get his joke. He lowered his head as they continued following the machine, till 2B then spots something in the distance that was hidden behind all the trees and green leaves. She then points towards it.

"9S, look!"

9S then stared at the sight in front of him and gasped. It was a small village that was tucked away in the woods, small wooden shacks surrounding a massive tree as the androids spot many machines waving white flags on wooden sticks.
2B noticed this immediately.

"They all have white flags..."

"Looks like they really don't want to fight..."

But does that really mean we should trust them just because they have a simple white flag? I don't think so...
