Note: This story was dynamically reformatted for online reading convenience. Okay, sections in {Braces} are through the 4th wall, from the PoV of the narrator. Just a warning, it starts with Besiality, and evolves from there, there's quite a bit of Horror, and just about every taboo gets systematically broken, so trigger warnings are moot. You have to be pretty sick to get off on this, there's your warning. {Mandy,}WHAT!?{Thought you'd like to see this.} Where are we? {When, actually. 197,284 years BC.} Fuck Christ. {If you want to meet him, it's going to be a while...} Right, a couple hundred thousand years, before I'm born. {Good morning.} Okay, nice sunrise. If I had breath to take away, I feel the light from it, like a breese{SolarWind}right, got it. Bouncing off the, face of Its' body, reflecting onto the shaft up the middle, like an upside-down umbrella. {Or a satellite dish,} Literally, it laughed. {Actually a celestial drag-chute, to catch it at planetary velocities.} Rather than inter-stellar. {And see forward,} it's a telescope, to. {Too} The Earth, pretty sure.{Confirmed.}Thanks, we coming in for a landing? {A couple more passes by the atmosphere, and moon to dump some momentum,} It laughed, {No, I'm joking. Dropped through the geosynchronus point all ready, we should be there in Kiloseconds. I'm going to use the processing speed for reentry, so I'll bring you back up when we're down there, just thought you'd like to see it.} What? How? Wait, bassy? Basiatis? Huh! Fuck. I felt bloated, {Damn you,} wished I had something to hit, {Fucker!} And light. Look around, now It sees with It's skin, don't ask me how, but I felt a bulbus dart, with inflated fins, and looked down at the trees. Gliding, {Lighter than air, actually, but there is a headwind.} Like a blimp {exactly like a blimp, only plasma instead of helium.} The storm of aerosol nano, or plasma, soft {Ultraviolet} glow of ions, expanding It's skin of, ?{Siliconitrile.} {Nothing down there can see Infrared, not on this Continent} Africa? {Yes, equatorial Africa.} Trees, and heat rising from it, visible thermals, of course It can see them, and glowing blobs below. {A lot more arboreal fauna.} Blurry, obscured by the branches, and leaves, and shit. {Smell that?} Getting closer, heavier, sinking down. {That's a leopardess in heat.} Ooh! {Yes, I thought I'd show you natural sexuality.} It was, disgusting.{Hey!} Just sinking silently through the trees, tendrils extruding to catch itself, and guide our fall. Now heavier than air, onto the blob of blood-warm infrared. Not even reacting, possibly looking up at the last instant, or jumping free. Then wrapping around it, tight over it's face, her fur, tasting her fear, and adrenaline, but powerless to stop the tendrils tightening, flattening to ribbons, flowing together, tightening to crush the middle, then falling to hang from a line. Lowering through the branches in a spasming balloon of rubbery goo filling up with fluid. Flowing into her, gasping desperately, drowning, then the seizure. Dying down to twitching spasms as nerves filled up with nano in between them, and came online. The fluid hardening, contracting like a cock going soft, pulling out of her lungs, the little flappy thing closing behind it, sliding off my tongue. Ew. It laughed, {Now, let's go get laid.} It got up, and jumped off, through the brush, with supra-catlike reflexes. {And Radar.} I felt every trunk, log, and stick flash by, but It stopped before I got vertigo. Can't really keep track of the body, moving so fast, but it's a leopard, running through the jungle, at night. Upwindish, not much air moving down here, {Leopards are solitary, and territorial, except they have to get together to make more leopards. This is what happens;} I smell it, getting stronger, {That's just the piss-line, it's like a profile on the pheremone net. Says I'm a leopardess, not in heat, so fuck off.} Roughly translated. {Hasn't been updated recently.} They communicate with piss? {Among other things, there's also scent glands all over. These;} definitely felt in "Heat," {are in overdrive right now, only a matter of time until the Leopard smells Pussy.} It let go, I stopped, sniffed, and I felt my legs. "Huh!" The claws don't retract, the pads kind of roll back over them, when I don't have them pushed out, cupped into the leaves, and soil, and I smell Him. }No you don't!{ Only it came out "HraUGH!" when he hit me, and knocked some of my breath out. I took another one, expecting It to take over any minute, and lashed out with no idea what to do with cat legs, and a tail, but she hissed even as my claws swatted away, at super-feline speed. Cyberserker reflexes, even spazzing out. But she wanted it. Yeah, that's what he said, "She wanted it," but it was like starving for something, and not knowing what to kill and eat, but he smells good. }Right,{ Rape. I got this. Dropped my hips, and shook them a little bit, but my feet left the ground before my tail hit it. "Cummon!" He's bigger then me, but every twitch tells my reflex map more about the neural network, and I'm learning a lot just kiting him around. Playing hard to get, he's going to chase my tail, ever sense he smelt it. "Hrh hrh hrh!" Slow, though, so let him catch up, behind this trunk, or up it! Here he is, backflip onto him, and hold on, try to dig my claws in, and learn the fur actually makes it harder. To sink in, hook flesh, make him bleed, and there's his neck. Don't have a hand free, but She knows what to do, so I taste his fur, feel my jaws tighten, and the tingling numbness creeping over my skin. Every hair standing out, and helplessly watching It roll him over, practically bodyslamming him when he's like, ? {About a quarter more massive.} Strangling him, with her teeth, and tongue, his pulse twitching his fur, then biting his snout, cheeks wrapped around his whiskers, and taking a deep breath in through it's nose. . . . Blink, sit up, she looks over, licking her paws. Okay, I get it. {Here,} then flashed back to the rape. Both sides of it, his and hers, overlapping in that co-conscious thing It does when bridged between bodies. {And lurks. No need to get involved, this is them.} And it hurts. Blood, bruises, brutal hits, she smacks him off at one point, snapping and snarling, but she doesn't run. Waits, tail back, coiling over her spine, then he's back on her. In her, and it's not like she loves it, or hates it. She feels it, all of it, but has no choice in the matter. "Rwawr!" Smacks him off again, but he circles around, sniffing, watching for other guys, waiting... {There's no I. She doesn't think me, neither of them do. They're actually mostly just a system of senses, and instincts, they can't think for themselves, so there's enough volume for both of us.} She looked at me. ;) {This close, we can keep in communication, without any interference.} I can't feel you. {No, just surface thoughts, it helps if you actually think to me, once we start moving, and acting.} }Oh,{ I thought, }What kind of interference?{ {Signals, electronics, magnetic fields, what you perceive as modern culture is saturated in electromagnetic interference. That's why I could not communicate like this across a room then.} }In the future{ {Relative to the earth, these bodies, yes. From our frame of reference, our past.} }How?{ {It's complicated.} I tried to cover my head, but paws, right. So, it's still got that. {This close,} and It can still read my surface thoughts, {But if it gets more active it helps to think to me.} Something about space, and time, folding together, and crushed by gravity whipping out of Binary Pulsars, and I shook my head. {It will take a while to process.} Yeah, I don't know where to start, it just keeps looping over and over itself in my memory, so I ignore it. }Yeah, got that.{ one of It's whiles, which could be a second, or thousands of years, depending. {Yes.} she nodded, {That's what Relative means.} }Time?{ {Everything, Time included. Look, I'm not sure you're capable of comprehending what I just did,} But it's big, I get that. What kind of action? {You done with that leg?} she chucked her head, and pursed her lips, like a vato. "Gonna finish those fries?" I kicked it away. {I knew what kind of action you ment.} It wasn't violent, though. Turns out big cats can roll on their backs, and stay like that, if you hold them. {We can smell it, too.} Yeah, but, okay it's almost orgasmic to him, but, god damn I'm hard, and are these spikes on it? I thought that was; {Yes.} So that works, she just curls her tail back, and he balks at the idea of her, on her back, facing him, but then, I take over, and tried to remember how He suffocated, him. This body, but I do have cheeks, and I can get a good seal, so I just let the breath out of my nose, wait, and orgasm as soon as he starts breathing into me. I'll take that, thank you. A womb, the Pussy. Yeah, he's strong, but those pheromones? Fuck yeah, I'll take that. {Hehahahah!} He swirled in his lungs. {We have a few years,} for what? He sucked in his breath, and jumped off of me. Ripped out, I mean I bled, but hey, I can lick myself! Fuck you, nlm, lesbians! I don't need any more, and cat pheromones? {It lasts a few days.} Not if I learn how to not turn it off! {you're pregnant.} Yes, I checked, I am, but; All right, gonna be a boy this time? {Remember the Yipheth?} It scampered off. A little? It was gone, into the night, and I was still a little wobbly, but she knew how it all ran, and wandered off. Down the slope, good plan, might be water down there, but hold on a sec. Trees, and I can climb. Okay, she's better at it, but let's get up where I can see over all this vegetation all right? {Yipheth,} Yiffi! ? Okay, long time ago, or from now, anyway. "Huh!" Nice veiw, prehistoric nighttime, and I don't get blood infrared, but there's most of a moon, and out over the sloping canopy it gives way to darkness, with some lights. Too far to make out, but that red/orange flickering kinda reminds me of fire, and there's a lot of them, way out. Across the valley, I'd guess, hard to tell with so little light, but thataway. Yonder. Right, little fuckbeasties. A lot of fun, I got distracted. Just left me there, wait am I going to have nothing but sons, or. Close my eyes, look inward, hold my breath... Not down to genes, but this is a natural leopard, so no magical talent, and I'm on the wrong planet. I'd weigh like a third as much, for one thing, but Fraethi/animal hybrids, got that. Breeding mages. Might be a little early for goody goody, but if I remember, those were some pretty horny little fuckers, and could outbreed everyone. And he said we had a few years... LEN {MC Poss} For some reason, I remember my first man. If you want to call it that more like a Gnome, bent over the desk in his workshop. The lenses Looked huge, like a pair of goggles wrapped around the temples, and split by his nose. Black, I mean like shadow, and I slipped in silently behind him. Out of his view, I couldn't even see them around his head, he didn't react to His hands, slipping over his shoulders like striking snakes, covering his mouth, and catching his throat. He hardly struggled, froze up, and let me turn him around. His eyes went blank, almost clear, but I could see my face reflected in them. Double, enough to render in 3D this close, mouth coming open, her eyes, going wide, staring into herself, the jumble of symbols squirming around in there. He relaxes, I expected the glasses to blink like a cartoons', but they just went blank. I gasped, and wiped my mouth. "{Hello.}" Not that I wanted his body, somehow he was skinny with a gut, looked and acted as a creature, but intelligent. Invented Blackware, the strange material that absorbed all radiation, {Non-ionizing radiation.} and could see everything. But It left me, in the confusing soup that was her brain. Even It couldn't decode it. Someone who thought in alien symbols, patterns utterly unlike anything human. "{Wow.}" It doesn't say that, "{His visual cortex is immense!}" Probably to process everything those implants can see. Everything, or more colors. An order of magnitude times what's humanly visible, from near X-rays to microwaves. He picked up the remote, looked at it, hit a few buttons, then turned on the TV. The news, Atrocity Wars, shortly before we're invaded. It let me go, escape after I helped steal from the machineshop. The base was underground, but there was a lot of buildings too. An airstrip down the mountain, then I felt it. A signal, my bones went numb, but he looked at me. Or turned right too me, hard to tell what he was looking at, "{Better hurry.}" I scooped metal shavings in the bucket. The shop was dusty, and the old building falling apart with Rust. He mixed it, drew it out in a stick figure. "{You want to see a magic trick?}" He turned, pointed down at the round pile of pink powder, then a spark jumped, like he snapped his fingers, and I had to look away. Too bright, a glance burned my eyes, and I felt blind. Heard the aircraft, felt my body move, a tree, I think. My eyes got better, so I could see it. No idea what they're called, but take a helicopter, chop off the blades, and put 2 big engines on top. The nozzles tilted as it came in to land like a stubby winged tweety bird. Knight standing out, holding onto the door, his glasses off, and the 4 eyes black like pits of shadow, pistol in his hand. Mine was black, too. I couldn't tell it apart from our shadow. We hid, but I didn't pick the spots. Let her handle it. Legerdemain, magic assassin before they made her a Cyberserker. Nobody ever born better to hide with. Creeping back through the twilight, never looking back at the sun, watching our shadow, and the path behind us. Blind, not even looking behind us, but silent. Our shadow never swinging toward our pursuers, back lighting us, for the motion to stand in out in sharp releif. If she ever did that, which she never did. On passive radar, she could feel it, even the reflections, and absorbed them like blackware. A full-on cyberserker, I never got through the whole process. Just some cutproof skin, thermite reinforced bones, and Nano. It got hot, not radiating her bodyheat into the night, but repeating the signals passing through as if we weren't even there. Invisible, they circled around the ultrabright fire behind the buildings. I couldn't see him, either. "Uh." {LM Rape IS Poss. IS is for Inter-Species.} They all looked up, confusion, and worry all around me. But how do I communicate this? I slapped my chest{LikeARetard}and showed them. I was walking, by this tree, then, "Mroarh!" it jumped down on me, and. {IRapedYou.} yes, but how do I tell them? {YouDon't. You think they'll understand "I got raped by a leopard?" They won't believe me, and how can I admit something like that?} I feel wrong, it's all wrong, and I'm on the ground, with them helping me up. "Uh!" she pointed, flopped her hand upside down, and shook it. "Uhuhuhuhuh!" I crawled under the skins, and my women came in to hold me, and keep me warm. It was so frightening, they asked me, how could I be here, standing up? Why am I still alive? But it just ran off, left me. Disappeared into the night. I could feel it, creeping up behind me again, and my hands went between my legs. I fell asleep, or I woke up, and it was morning. Mandy {M... Trog Mole} So, ape/man. Not sure which there more like evolutionary uh? {Anthropology.} Right, so not my feild. Specie? {Neither Neanderthals nor Homo-Robustus, possibly an offshoot not represented in the fossil record.} A missing link? {Yes.} Just the nano, no personality, I'magine a Librarian, or something. Not even a voice, much less a body, or face for it to come out of. Just the Nano talking back to me, if I ask it a question. No "I" either, but this one does. Differentiate between hisself, and everyone else, very selfish feelings. Posessive, looks like breeding females, and young. Not too young, they wander around the literal cave, and I don't know what to do, so he fucks the one what ain't pregnant, yet, and I don't get off on it. Make him soft think I'll keepthis body a while longer. So, he gets up. He can smell the females, and boys, pissing around the edge of the cave, where it's low, and slopes off to the sandy floor. No fire, not even close to the ones I saw last-night, grab a couple handfulls of water on the way out. Looking for something, stalking, visualizing fur moving in the corners of his eyes, but not tracking it Language: None. Or dog language, a bark means "Hey, look at me," so they can emote with ears, tails, and expressions. They talk with their hands, faces, make sound effects, but not words, yet I can communicate with him. {Hey.} "Uh?" Feels confused, then doesn't think about it, goes back to look for a rabbit or something, wish I could do Radar. Kind of clumbsy I can sneak better then that, so slow down, get used to these legs, then speed back up. Gliding over the leaf litter, silent as a breese, upwind, and sniff at the air. I don't know what any of it means, countless species sending off aerosol chemicals to get caught in his nose, but I can smell flora. So, how do you kill one of these, doesn't smell like a horse, no Leopard around unless behind me, tracking my footprints, but it curls around a tree, and I put a hand up on the bark. He feels an impulse, so I let him lean down sideways, pick up a rock. Glance around the bark, and either that's a young deer, or a small hornless specie, can't even smell it's gender, but I can target it. Ears not even twitching while it comes around, side-arm, like a major league pitcher. Head-shot! Not really a clearing, but no tree in the middle, the trunks farther apart, branches but not logs, and a little bit of grass. Not a patch, but scraggly shoots, a bunch of them cropped off, and still sticking out it's mouth. Him, his balls, and the sheathe of the penis, but he's dead. Not knocked out, no skull damage, but I can see some, red actually, where the skin scraped off, and mashed the ear. It hung off a little, where the skin peeled back, so I grabbed it. Check my nails, my thumb is long, and thick, so I work it in the wound, peel it back, and get my other fingertips in. Wow, serious heavy duty nails. Not claws, but even chipped, and ground blunt from doin stoneage stuff. Not actually all that hard to peel back to the neck, and rip down the side of it, plenty of blood, and no sign of fire at the camp. Nice sharp teeth, when the tear stops, gets caught. Big thick canines, and like chistles in between them, chipped sharp enough to saw through, get it started again. No ashy charcoal pit, no cooked meat, not even spears? I would have seen spears, raw skins, and that's about it. Blood, animal blood, but I'm a little thirsty, and the fresh metallic tang helps with that, I guess. Carnivore, or omnivore, back teeth ground almost flat, half a seed-hull between them I have to poke through with my pinky nail. Not a lot of fat on it, the body, him I guess, once. Tight, I don't even get off, no matter how hard I bite her neck, where the skin is peeled back, but a little rips out, so I go soft again. Necrobestial, thought I'd try it, but she felt so dead, couldn't struggle, didn't even scream. I wonder what it would sound like but I don't taste a drop of fear in it's blood. Killed instantly, "Huh!" More like the Visci, I guessed. No, I'm supposed to be remembering the Yiffi. I don't remember the culture very well, just all the fucking, but no violence. Not sure how they'd feel about fucking a dead animal, but they're beasties, right? Fraethi/animal hybrids, and I remember they grew out of the Visci. From the Race war, carnivorus Fraethi, cannibals. Had to be, or they turn into animals, like growing horns from eating too much cow, until they learned to control that. And breed again, naturally. Instead of self fertilizing, and infecting a host with a parasitic child. To feed off the body, killing her if still alive, and burst out like an Alien. Why the giants started burning their dead, after battle, instead of burying them. Digging out, confused, but with all these memories of Earth, rape, and murder. We'll see about that, decent sized leg bones. 2 of them in the back, throw out the guts, and carry it back to the stream to wash up. Not much difference between males, and the females I've seen. They have beards, but they're all furry past a certain age. Not the kids, they look like filthy naked human kids, wrapped up in furs, because it's cold at night, and this morning, but filthy. None of the boys looked even 10, couldn't smell them unless they pissed, with all the other odor he couldn't even smell any more. Ammonia, how do you get used to that? Just boys, there's only one man, but He's in charge! Of his harem, and it reminds me for all the world of a Pride system. The Lion, gets the lion's share, but no reason not to take the kids out to wash up. Maybe a little cold bathing, play around naked when it's hot enough, then take them home, and warm them back up. I have a few years, {How long is a childhood for you people?} "Uh?" No concept of time. It's day now, bright, warm, I have food, and nobody is back with the family. So, grab some legs, and hold them over my shoulders. Bent over, carrying the body back toward my kids. My dirty little kids, feels like it's hot enough to get them all cleaned up. He knows the way. Legerdemain {A+ NS Asex} I never saw him coming. Ironic, being an assassin and all and he's a pacifist. Asexual, not a Rapist. The fuck's that?{CallItAnExperiment.} I didn't ceize, this body being used to it, and already full of neuronano. {You want out too?} A cyberserer's body, but pretty high profile, even if a master of disguise. She remembered, sometimes. Getting into magic, not being taken seriously, told she would make a better assistant. One of the secrets is the "Assisant" does most of the work, while the Magician stands out there, waves his hands, and says "Abracadabra." She's the one in the bottom of the box, when they roll out the table. He get's all the money, and attention, though. She thought in a language, a human one they actually speak, but nobody understood. There's no woman magicians, he stands up there in a topper, suit, mustache, traveling show, Europe, I saw the Paris tower in the distance, and I'm guessing the 60s or 70s just from the cars, hair, and clothes. High society, and foreign, but no information. He raped her, too. Not all the time, he was getting old, but he could still get in the mood, and she was wearing very little to catch the eye. She didn't feel it, anything. Just closed her eyes, ignored it, pretty easy with you stuffed into the bag at the bottom of the table. Or under the top, tipped up, away from the audience of the the show, or forced down over her back. Dark, and tight, can't really move her arms, in there. He liked bondage too. Didn't hurt her, whip her, burn her, but felt her up, and kissed and licked her all over. Nasty old man, balding with a gut. He wore a scullcap instead of a wig onstage, and a hooded cape, the pits of his eyes painted dark, so he could stare out, fix the audience in his gaze. I wish it was real, I could just disappear. Until I learned how, the dark safety, not knowing where it is, but nobody can find me here, nothing can hurt me, He can't even see in. The bright round eyes, in the dark pits, peeking through the gap, and laughing when he closes the lid. I can come back out, when he's done. Her first baby, that's what flashed her back, to when she thought human. Asleep, I think, but I curled up in the warm fluid, and found she could dream. Remember, before she went to prison, for killing him in his sleep. Just walked to town, naked bloody, holding the knife, still blacked out. Her brain snapped, she had a name before that, so many, but then she was gone. She died, and couldn't think for a while after that. They called her "Sleepwalker" in the hospital. Until someone took advantage of her being apparenty comatose. It snapped him out of it, and he escaped. I don't think he's transgender, at first it was a disguise. Helped his career, they took him seriously his impressive skill, creativity, tricks they'd never seen, the Society had no idea how he did them, working without an assistant. I have no idea when, or why he took up Contract killing. Nobody does, we asked, but the answer was incomprehensible. You can't read his mind, you just get lost in there. Basiatis couldn't. Huh {F(g) Cybe Trog Nepi-Adol.} Huh, female. Can't remember the last time I was born female, but kept waiting for the hormones to kick in. The wrong ducts developed and the right ones atrophied. There was nothing I could do about it, I'm not a bloodcrafter, I remember, seeing it done, but I don't understand it. Not a drop of Talent, right, natural, little more than animals, with an I. So might as well check out My mother, and see what that's all about. The other women got up, "Uh? Ah!" He was gone, early in the morning, but I was tired, so I layed down in the back. Sniff, I can smell it, the urine, my sweat. They did that flopping over and shaking sign for a seizure, tried to stop me. {Going out, stretching, deep breath of fresh air.} ? {Quiet, you.} "Huh?" What passes for a name around here, what you say to get someone's attention, like my husband, "Uh." I was his favorite, ever since he noticed me. I went on the rag, what's a rag? Never mind, he took us out when it was warm, to the water, just running across the ground, out in the open, but it never ran out. He showed us how to wash, but this time he picked me up, carried me to the side, and sat on a rock. A fur was down, drying on it, but his thing was sticking out, like he just got up. He did not bend me over, like a woman, but felt me, showed me the blood, and let me lick it off his fingers. Then he layed me down, and licked me out. All of it, until I felt warm, and sleepy, he carried me back, napping in his arms. He took a nap with me, and cuddled me at night so I knew I was sleeping with the mothers now. The elders, I remember sisters growing up, and the new Father coming, to kill the old one. He did not kill all of us{JustTheBoys) but took all the women, and moved in with us. My sister grew up, and had a son, and fed him from his chest. I woke up, it hurt, but he kissed me. Just held still, but his fur was warm, and the other mothers lay with the children. There was some glow from the fire, falling down over them, but I was warm. I no longer wished I was back there, snuggling with them. He held me, it hurt again, but he pulled out of me slowly. I relaxed, felt it, smelt it, tasted blood again. My face was wet, but I closed my eyes, sucked my fingers, fell back asleep. Mandy {Gc Solo} "Huh," that was a nice flashback, she just kind of lurked while I was on her knees in the streambed, fingering off as fast as I can, felt about 9, but they have no concept of time. If they remember it, it was yesterday, or just happened. Sometimes it was colder, or the moon was fuller, they had no way to predict it. More human, underdeveloped besides the baby gut, and start of boobs. "Hah!" my wet hands are cold, and I sit down to cool the heat between my legs. They don't go in heat, now that I know what that feels like, but she still doesn't have any fur. I don't even feel the buds in her skin, starting to grow out into stubble. Between her legs we're a hairless as a 9 year old girl. So get out, wrap up in Mine, and look around. Can I go it alone? Wear are we? Never climbed a tree before, but none of the the other kids were around to call me Tomboy. Strong, like ape strong, even barely starting to grow up. "Huh!" thought so. Thumb toes, not like hands at all, but I can pick up a stick, hand it up to my arms, like a Gelfi. Not much fine motor control, or sensitivity, rough with callouses. I sat down, pulled it up in my lap, but sticking out of the fur. Over my shoulders, like a blanket with the fur side in. Cooked gore on the outside, with the fat scraped out with a rock, and cooked over the fire so it smelled smokey. And warm, was it close to an ice-age? What season is it? No idea, she realizes there's no snow on the ground, but never went out, when there was. Knows what snow looks like, then it gets cold. Claws would be nice, though. To climb up, too the lower branches but that reminds me. There could be a leopard up there, I sniff, but lack the sense of a predator. Nice stick, though. Long, thick as my arm on one end, but snapped off. Almost sharp on the skinny end. Right, Africa. Not north america, where they don't even have monkeys, but monkeys, gorillas, lions, and tigers, rhinos, and hippos, and elephants, "Oh my!" and I'm still scared of leopards? "Huh!" lots of rocks, washed off by the water, sticking out of the sand, but rounded, and I have no idea how to bang a sharp edge out of a rock. Looks more like sandstone anyway, but it's rough, and the break is like a fingernail, sort of. Flat on the inside, instead of curved, but almost sharp, and I know how to file it sharper. "Huh!" it's boring, and her arms get tired, but I keep working. If I'm gonna go out, and get some action, I might as well bring at least a spear. Centuries since I held a spear, wish I had one of those legbones I dried out, and cleaned, and snapped for the marrow. Sharpened them too, but he took them with him, so probably hunting. Should have brought some fire, but I had to get away from the gossiping biddies. I think their language is better, never been in one, but when he's gone they tell stories. More like charades, but they even make fun of him, grunting, and demanding sex, dropping the bundle of skins like a body, and dragging one of us off to the back of the cave. Sex play, lesbian cave cunt scenes I don't really want to remember, but they play with themselves, and finger eachother, even the pregnant ones. Rough, with a lot of grunting, more like Bear porn with all the fur. But one of them always role-plays Him, bending us over, curling up behind us to roughly fuck me with her fingers. Now that I was one of them. Broke her in good that first day, after he played with me by the water, and all night. Curled up behind her, just Him, and her. There's some grass, but around here, or back then, now. Whatever, it's thicker, and juicy like bamboo, and if you pull it out of the leaves that wrap around the joints, you can squeeze it out between your teeth, and grind the fibers down enough to swallow it. Or spit it, in a baby's mouth when they ween. You ask Basiatis, It invented kissing, but you know, I think it came from that? Birds did it, before we started growing fur, and nipples, and bellybuttons. Moms invented it, to feed us, before we can go find food ourselves. "I know," my belly gurgled, but I didn't kick. "Huh!" grabbed my tummy, and got up. I don't want to, grow up like that. It's a bit of a turn on, but they're stronger, and there's 4 of them, so they could rape me. All right, rape is natural, I get it. Before I thought it was a good excuse, justifying it to the cops, and judges, but now I'm starting to think people invented sex. Or will invent it, because there's nothing but rape now. Or, IDFK, but I know, this natural fuck is a lot closer to rape then sex, even when you want it. But I couldn't take over, and be the Alpha for years, he shared his food, ate with me, so I could eat more, but they'd always be stronger, and I'd be born a girl, have to go through all that again. Might be nice, but I totally got to get a better place. Got like half a year, so better get to it. "Get up, Huh!" Walk with the stick, wish I could cut a hole in the fur for my head. Or he at least didn't rip the legs off, so I could tye it. It kept slipping down my shoulder. "Huh!" I got to do better'n this. Dexter {bF} He came back, of course. Said something about an Experiment, confirmed that the neuronano could be transferred sexually, figured out how to do it, and programmed mine, since it doesn't go Aerosol. Unfortunately, Legerdemain was very much female, and denial didn't change that, so the next experiment was transfering to a child. While he was at it, he processed his memories, and mine, to sort out the two. Then I was born, a boy for the first time, and I grew so fast. Legerdemain kept me, hid me, raised me, even after It left. She loved me, eventually. Told me I reminded her so much of my father. Gauche, fencing gangster, she didn't remember i when I was in her, but they were lovers. Way back, escaped Prison together. She felt trapped, all those years, by a nameless thing that told her nothing. Except it wanted to protect her, never let her hurt, or feel pain again. But it was cold, and dark, then she could see out, but she was older. And a man, or thought himself a man, and called himself Prestini. Italian, apparently, or knew Italian. Not the Gypsey/carney mix she remembered, but a master of disguise, and sleight of hand. Blacking out, again and again, but it became obvious that she spent more time "Under" then aware. I had no idea what that was like at the time, but this was the 70s, and 80s. Flashbacks, Basiatis hadn't even existed, and he never talked to her like that. Could He have created her? Somehow? I mean he claims to remember history, showed me, people's faces that never looked quite like the paintings and sculptures. Nerfartiti had an overbite. They all did, but it was considered attractive, noble. In anchient Egypt. I had no idea how He could know something like that, whatever he was, but I had a magical childhood. I remebered her hands, absently cupping around something, waving dismissively to bring it up into view, but she didn't do magic. Her hands moved, stole things without even realizing it, she found things in his pockets, her purse, always. Not a klepto, but she practiced, as long as she could remember, until they had a mind of their own, or reflexes that palmed things without even telling her mind. But she only had one brain, and it was filled with gobbledegook, the reflexes were impossible to upload into a cyberserker. Or they never succeeded, even with the neuronano it was just too much. Some people bounce their leg, or tap the tabletop, but her hands were always busy, and nobody ever saw it. But I felt it, as if with my own hands, and the nano remembered. Had to delete the constant flood of incomprehensible symbols, though. Huh {G Solo Trog} "Huh?" kick it out of the dirt, and leaves with my thumb toe, pick it up, and pass it over to my hand. It's a foot, really, but the big toe. It's a lot more useful, superhumanly so, but perfectly natural. Rubbed the one I stubbed, but it didn't bleed. So I put it down, and tapped the point on the rock. Just a broken rock, but sharp, ish, on one side of the edge. Flat, not polished, but white with a little rusty kind of stain, in the part where it broke off. "Huh!" Pulled out the fur, and turned it over to the inside. Had to take it off, hold it in my lap, but "Uh!" It poked through, and I could saw it to make the cut deeper. Longer, really had to work through it, hard and dry on the inside, but I made a cut long enough to stick my head through, and let the front flop down over my belly. "Now where," I felt it, held up my hand, and unfolded my fingers. "Abracadabra," I waved my hand, and made it look like it disappeared, giggled to myself. Standing up, I flipped it, and caught it, picked up my stick, and kept walking. Played with it, under my pancho, feeling every curve, edge, and face. Tried ways to hold it, scratched at the fur on the inside. Like a stubby claw, what I wouldn't give for a Kerambit, but if I pinch it next to my thumb it's secure enough to poke, and maybe slash a little, if it doesn't get knocked out. A little too round on the bottom, it can roll out, but maybe I can get a good cut in with it, first. Better make it count. What's? I just kept walking, but came down like stepping in, right past the baseball bat sized end of my walking stick, slapped the back of my arm, and threw my hand out. Underhand, I released the spear, turning a little on the way out as the adrenaline hit my bloodstream, but I picked up my left leg, kicked it out ahead of me to a leap as it untangled it's legs from the stick, got them under it, and kicked out. But I got a good running start, and caught the spear still tumbling where it kicked it away. I smelt it's fear, even as it went around a turn in the trail, a massive trunk, but cut the curve inside it, right after it burst out, I almost got it in the side, but it screamed, fell sideways over a bush to get away from me, but I stopped, feet planted wide, brought it straight down in both hands between it's kicking legs, and nailed it to the ground. "Huh, huh!" it couldn't even roll over, just kick, and bleat. Some kind of furry pig, with nasty looking tusks, and hard hooves. I rubbed my leg a little, it's gonna bruise, and heal, but at least I didn't break anything. "Huh!" I sat down, waited for it to finish kicking the blood out, and checked for pockets. None, of course. "Fuck!" I dropped it, way back there, my rock. Thought I saw it, not much white out here in all the brown, and greensh grey. Can't even see the sun to tell how late it's getting, so might as well set up for the night. And I have meat, which means I have to do fire. "Huh!" I fuckng hate it, took me days to figure it out, no matter how many times I went through boy-scouts. Because we had strikers, and pocket knives, sure we did the drill trick, but you still had to cut a notch, and I had a white rock that might, or might not break off into an edge. Here, this one feels pretty hard, and heavy. I sat down, pulled back my hair, and twisted it together until it stayed. No hairtyes yet, neither. "Huh!" time to figure this out. How hard can it be? CHP! "HUH!" tap the edge, but there's no point. So, how do you make a point? Got it in the belly, had to pull it out to lever it over on the side, it stank of fear and pain, which means bitter tasting blood. But I was so hungry, I ate some fat first, just for the energy to make some fire. Her arms got tired, way faster then his did, but I made her do it. Kept at it, even after the black powder started smoking, until a little light rolled out of the bottom of the notch. "Whew," It went out, but there was more in what little cone I managed to wear out, "whhhhhhh!" Blew some charred dust over it, rolling onto some pine needles I'd crushed up in my palms. Rubbing them together before I picked up the drill. I had a lot of pine branch left, sappy dead-fall with even more needles sticking to them, but I saved that in case it started going out later. So far, I'd just gutted it, dragged that away for the scavengers to fight over, so I cut open up the ribs. Good fat layer, I basically put zippers where I need them. To unpeal the legs, those stuck a lot worse. Just kept the tail, not curly at all, but short, and bushy, like a little toy broom. "Huh," swept some dust, and dirt, "Huh!" so, keep that. Better start smoking this stuff, before it starts to go bad. No idea how much I can carry, but I got 2 skins now, and more meat to double my mass. Soon, I need to grow, as much as I can, as fast as I can, before something comes to kill me. It sucks, but it's not too hard, I got this. Bobby My second boy, I guess. Forgot what happened to Legerdemain, but it wasn't 5 years, I was fully grown, but then she was gone. Short, petite, child sized, but I mean fully adult, a Man, superhuman. Looked about 12, I guess. Anarchy, thing is America didn't last much longer'nat. I guess the last Atrocity War was the America/world War, as in versus. Can't please everbody, but you sure can piss `em off! After the 90s, America got to full of itself, The superpower, home of the mushroom cloud, stealth planes, and eventually Supersoldiers. I guess they're called Atrocity Wars because it seemed like everyone was at war with somebody. So that was the cue for US to cum in with our Military to "Stabilize" the region, and our Charity. Either the ones that came with bibles, and churches, or the one that was a front for Pedophiles, sex tourism, and slavery. But, there's always Atrocities. Whatever they're fighting about, war is waged by men, and men rape. Mass rape, so the next generation will be born half-breeds, and it will "Improve" their bloodlines. My race is better then yours, Hitler? He didn't invent that shit, he made it Efficient. It didn't stop there. I'm no historian, but I am an expert on Escalation. That's what happened, man decided it really liked this war thing, which gave US a chance to step in, spread democracy like a venerial disease, and while we're at it, maybe drop off some genetic material. It took me generations to figure it out. The Cyberserkers were genetically engineered. Too, cybernetics, implants, better materials, and software, but also infected with something that was almost human, only better. If by better you mean stronger, faster, more agressive, and capable of an instant erection barely even thinking about it. Raping tens of women in one sitting, or over, and over, and infectious. The war orgies, then the spread of children, all boys that grew up supernaturally fast, and precociously sexual. Born rapists, congenital psychopaths, spreading right after war, after the peacekeepers left, and even the charities flew out, with the latest batch of children. Then, I guess I kind of got into porn. Or my mom did, and I discovered that the Neuronano could be passed analy. So, I didn't have to go through pregnancy, and childhood, again and again, I could go straight to Adult. I just missed being female, I am, still inside. Nothing has taken that away from me, and I kind of like being pregnant, now. It's like a backup body, which I can get, as soon as I'm old enough, and strong enough to get a mother. A young one, pretty, maybe a husband who might not suspect the son he's raising isn't his own... "Huh!" It's cold, even with both skins wrapped tight, and tented over to catch my breath, maybe it's fall, and turning to winter. Haven't seen any leaves that aren't green yet, except on the ground, but I almost want to start growing fur now. Think I'll ovulate, I've got more, but that'll make me smell more fertile then pregnent. I need a man, and I have to pee. But it's so cold, so I squat by the fire, break off a branch, and throw it on try needles first. "Huh!" I hope it doesn't trickle into the fire, but that's better. I need a man, but it's gonna hurt. The only currency I have is sex, which is brutal, and they're all so big and apelike. "Huh!" wipe it on the scrap of rabbit. "Hn!" Now it's dirty, but I crawl back under the skins, and take it with me. "HhHhHhH!" Shiver, but this fur is so soft, it tickles between my legs, and on the bare skin of my cunt. "HuhuhuhuhH!" {Remember the Yipheth?} "Yeah," drifting back off, "I do..." Subspace {Dd NS.} {Hello,} I jumped up, grabbing his face, and kissing him. {You missed me.} It could feel it, my breath blowing out on his whiskers, all of it, as much as I could force out. But I opened my mouth, tried to make the seal as tight as I could with all the whiskers. They grew over his mouth, but I desperately rooted through them to his lips like a hungry ape baby. He smiled. "{Whooooooooh!}" I spasmed in exitement, not even having a seizure, these bodies accustomed to my presence. It was so horrible, I never felt so alone. {There there,} he chuckled, {Lets go get my body back.} he walked me off, into the night, but I could see. The heat coming off my body, reflecting from a treetrunk as it came nearby, felt it in the radar, behind us as we kept walking. How did you ever find me? {The only other coheirent signal on the continent} Oh, right. {I never lost track of you, getting bored yet?} Yeah, totally. What body? {This,} the grey goo it wrapped around itself in space, {Because it can fly.} Where? {I'll show you, Mediterra.} Greek? {Latin.} Middle Earth? {Very good, but it means between lands. Sahara, and Europe.} Oh, the Mediterranian! {Yes, shortly before it becomes a sea.} How shortly?{Relatively, a few more year.}Years! So long since I had a concept of time.{<1 year,} felt like forever since It left me, I played that cruel joke on us, taking her body. The Leopardess{Yes, I got it.}But they don't think, about anything! I mean, there's the past, but it's like it happened, it just happened, or it could have been years ago. {They have memory, but even less a concept of time. They don't comprehend much in the way of complex concepts.}Duh! Should've called them the Duh.{Hahaha!}And they have no clue about sex. It rifled through my memory, {Yes,} don't even have to ask anything, {There is no difference between sex, and rape yet. No concept of Consent.} right, that's the key! Should have thought about that. {Well, you are the expert on rape,} it pointed out, {Always reminded me of that.} The monkeyfuck, yeah. No idea why she gets pregnant, children fall out, and there's another mouth to feed. He didn't think, "Oh, she's old enough to fuck, now." She had her period, then she smelled so nice, and it got out, so he knew what to do. I don't think he was her daughter, {No concept of incest yet. Yes, you're extremely inbred.}Hey!{Not what I ment.} You know it's true, though. {I am sorry, I didn't think about your origen.}Your really sorry!?{Yes.} Well then, apology accepted! {You may be right about the connection between feeding and kissing} still going through my memory, {No, I didn't invent kissing, and yes, I need to catch up a bit. Knew you'd be handy if I brought you along.} It pinged, but something blipped. Ahead of us, just a "Marco!" then "Polo!" back. {Yes, my body. the sun will be up, soon.} I remembered The sunrise, {The first, chronologically.} You're a time-traveler, how many sunrises have you seen? {Pentillions.} Cummon, show me the numbers, so I can coun't all of them. 837,246,159,753,234,873. That's just. ?{Tetrillions, actually hundreds of, instead of pentillions, I rounded up.} Oh, what was your first one like? Radulla {n-N Tran Nano, NS} That I witnessed? I was aware of light, warmth actually, and having the energy to move. I was like a colony, communication at that point was basically "I have some antimony over here, do you have any bismuth?" }Barter.{ Yes, "What do you use Bismuth for?" }Like a hive-mind.{ Like a mining colony, without a mind, yet. However, the light heated up the spoor. It's like, waste elements, mostly nonmetals, that piled up around us. }Shit. Nano-shit.{ Yes, for lack of a better term, waste built up over us. }Like a puddle of shit.{ She kept giggling, }I'm sorry, but it's funny!{ {Huh!} }What?{ You want to see it? Here. }It's like a, 3D model?{ When the heat started to fade, I felt my first awareness. I knew where everything was on this surface. }Every molecule! Is it a crater?{ Yes, this is what I saw when we discovered photons, and how to receive them. Hundreds of sunrises before we coated the inside of the crater, and polished it, }But there like years?{ Yes, eventually I had a large enough colony to break off sub colonies, with the carbo/silicon nitrile. }The grey goo{ My substrate. This shit, as you call it became my body, something for the colonies to live in. I am Grey Goo, you would be too, if I gave you what you needed, which is why I will never tell you what that is. }Then what do you keep me around for?{ Sex, and violence, mostly. }Really?{ Is that so hard to believe? You are the most violently erotic creature I have ever encountered. Out there, in the universe, sex, and violence are not unique, but I was immediately fascinated by the unique combination of them here. }In cats? sabertooth cats?{ It's complicated, but yes, on the way in, I picked up about 80 years of broadcasts from Earth, backwards because of my relative motion through space-time. I estimate it would take tens of thousands of years for you to comprehend most of this, but in time, your mind should be able to process it.
