He Made the First Move Smirking She Responded and He Woke Up Conf

from Short SciFi Stories on the go · host Kelli Korner

First contact sparring, the instructor announced, observed carefully, at the center stood two figures, one, a towering alien warrior, plated in natural armor, confidence radiating from every movement, the other, a human girl, still, quiet, unimpressive. The human stood over him, not threatening, not triumphant, just calm. A ripple of realization spread because it wasn't luck, not reflex, not chance. And as crath watched her walk away, one chilling truth settled deep into his mind, unshakable, terrifying. The strongest warriors strike first, but humans don't need to, because by the time you make your move, they've already decided how your story ends.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/little-scifi-stories-on-the-go--7033804/support.
