The Mech Lord

"Then, Lets start with your name?"

Aiden obviously remembered that at least, who would forget their name, "I am Leo Allison…"

Well that certainly was…anyway…let\'s carry on...

"What is your age?"

"18."

"Why were you on the ship?"

"I was returning back home from a trip…"

The Doctor and the Captain frowned on hearing that.

"Which planet are you from?"

"Earth…" Aiden replied feeling a bit weird at their gazes.

"Are your registered with the embassy?" The Captain asked.

"Why do a I need registration in the Solar System?" He couldn\'t help but asked with a confused smile.

The Doctor and the Captain exchanged a look and could see the shock in each other\'s eyes.

"Which race are you from?" The Doctor couldn\'t help but ask.

"Human.." Aiden who called himself Leo tried to force a smile, but it only looked awful. He couldn\'t understand why they were asking him something so obvious.

"Sigh! This is more serious than I thought about..." Doctor Edwin said as he looked at the Captain with a serious face.

\'What\'s going on?\' On other hand the person in question was even more confused at their words.

But at this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of his reflection on the glass pane towards the side of the room and his eyes widened in shock.

He hurriedly got out resting capsule and struggled to the glass pane as he staggered a couple of steps.

It was pitch black outside of the spaceship but he didn\'t pay attention to that. He looked at the reflection on the glass and touched it with trembling hands before touching his own face.

Silver white hairs, Blue eyes, pale skin….

It wasn\'t him.

He was Leo Allison, a human!!!

Leo turned his head and saw the Captain and Doctor looking at him with a strange expression and finally realized the problem here.

"This isn\'t me…I swear…this is not my body. I am a human…" Leo answered nervously. He was totally freaking out and his body was shaking. He couldn\'t understand what was going on. This didn\'t make sense at all. This was not his body.

"Calm down, Leo. We will figure out what had happened…" The Doctor was an experienced person and remained calm. He smiled and tried to assure him that everything was fine. But, there was no way that it was going to calm Leo down who was going through an existential crisis right now.

"You believe me, right?" Leo asked as he looked at him with a tensed face.

The Doctor nodded and asked him to rest for a while as Leo had some tests to do later on.

After that he Doctor left the room with the captain.

…..

"Is he lying?" Captain Alen asked as he looked at the Doctor Edwin.

"Hard to say without any further check up…" The Doctor replied as he stuffed his hands in his pocket. "I will ask a Doctor form Gloria for help. They should know their people better.."

At this moment, the Captain\'s smart watch flashed with a notification and he swiped it up releasing a projection in the form of a two dimensional screen.

"Captain, we have reached our destination. Seeking permission to enter the gravitational field…"The pilot asked.

"Sound the alerts and prepare for entrance in ten minutes.." The Captain commanded.

….

"I got too nervous….calm down." Leo meditated as he sat cross legged trying to calm down.

This was a bit too sudden and unexpected, well who would be expecting something like this to happen to them anyway.

A minute later, he opened his eyes, "Those two Sirs, they definitely did not believed me…what do I do now?"

Leo looked at the mirror and sighed. "Just what in hell happened in the evacuation shuttle?"

He tried to remember the events but no matter what he did, he couldn\'t just recall what had happened at all.

There were several questions in his mind but no one to answer. By, now he had realized that this body belonged to the alien guy who was on the board with him. He wondered where his real body was, whether it was with the Alien guy. And even if it was, what was he supposed to do to get it back.

He didn\'t even know the guy\'s name and now they had switched bodies. This couldn\'t be anymore ridiculous.

But for some reason, Leo had an odd feeling whenever he thought about the owner of this new body…it was as if there was some kind of connection between them…

"Hell No!! What am I thinking?!" Leo shook his head and chanted inwardly, \'I am straight!\' He didn\'t seem to realize that things might not be the way he was thinking it to be….

"Ah! But I have to find him! He might have my body. Besides, how in hell did we change bodies to begin with. Is this even logically or scientifically possible?" Leo really didn\'t know what to say. He really was speechless.

Is this something which normally happens? He might be less surprised if it was a reincarnation or transmigration or even awakening a system…but don\'t just go changing people\'s bodies…

What in hell was he supposed to say to his friend and families?

Yo, I got up a makeover and changed my race..

Hell no! Who would believe that?! He might be treated as a mentally retarded person.

Now that he thought about it, the Doctor sure had must have followed the same train of thought. No wonder he was being so nice, he must be pitying him.

Leo held his head half in depression and other in frustration as he rolled on the bed.

At this moment, an alert sounded reminding everyone to get to their seats and lock on their seat belts as they were about to entered Earth\'s gravitational field.

\'I wonder how father will react…\' Leo muttered inwardly as he walked up to the seat in the corner and put on the seat belt and sighed thinking about the future.
