ok just checking lol making sure it wasnt dead in the water lol

                                                                                                                                   Chapter 13

{{{I'ts a short one  but there will be more soon.}}}

I awake from my sleep and find that everyone is already gone. I think that they are already up and perhaps making breakfast as before , so I get out of bed and go into the main room but no one is there.

Maybe they have gone to the galley to make breakfast, so I head down to the galley to see if they are there. Walking down the corridor I see no one else on my way to the galley. When I get to the galley there is no one there either. There is usually some one there eating or just sitting enjoying a drink.

Maybe they have gone to my quarters to make breakfast there since I keep food in my quarters. I head down the corridor towards my quarters when I get there my quarters are just as empty as the rest of the ship.

Maybe Squeaky and Zipper know whats going on so I head for the engine room. Since my quarters as close to the engine room it doesn't take me long to get there, I quickly climb down to the first level but there is no Squeaky or Zipper to be found. While I am here I decide to check the engines real quick. I say “Computer what is the engine status” the computer responds “the engines are not operating.” ok now I am really starting to get quite concerned. “where the hell is everyone.”

I decide to head down to the cargo hold and see if the unicorns are there. I head down the corridor when I get to the cargo hold I press the combination that Sigrun had showed me and the door opens , revealing the corpses of all four unicorns blood every where I run into the room to make sure if there is something I can do maybe they are still alive maybe I can save them, but when I enter they are completely motionless all I can do is hold their motionless bodies.... I swore that I would protect them with my life, but I was unable to do so they are all dead .

But what of everyone else what of my mates, I must find them …. so I turn and start running for the bridge. When I get to the nearest lift pad I take to to the top level. I run from there all the way to the bridge. When I get there the door is locked

I say “Computer emergency override bridge door open authorization alpha gama omega 1011 green” the door opens. Revealing the entire bridge crew had been murdered in the same fashion the unicorns had been, there was blood every where the first that I seen was Drake then I begin looking around and see the others Snowy, Talzon, Adelind, and Tiamat. Again I swore that I would protect them all with my life, but what the hell has happened here every one was murdered in a most brutal manner their bodies were strewn all over the deck blood every where there was a battle here but who and why …. why couldn't I be there to defend my friends.

But where is everyone else where are my mates , Valesz, Lakia, and Katherine . Then I realize that there are sounds coming from the briefing room.....

I turn and head for the briefing room and that door is also locked . I say “ computer emergency override briefing room door open authorization alpha gamma omega 1011 green”

The door opens. Revealing Lakia and Katherine laying on the floor with Jalad standing over Valesz just as he plunges his blade into her chest . I scream out her name “Valesz” Jalad runs out of the room leaving me alone with Valesz, I run to her kneel by her and hold her, she coughs up some blood. And she says “I love you.”

I look into her eyes and say “ I love you too. I'm sorry that I wasn't here to protect you my love.”

She says “You must take care of Jalad and continue the mission there are more unicorns out there and they need to be free.” she collapses in my arms. “I will my love , I will avenge you and bring the unicorn back to populated space.” I gently lay her on the floor “ I look around there is a case with a dragon blade hanging on the wall with a small plaque with a name etched on it it reads “Astarot Unridoor a great warrior.” I smash the glass and take the Blade. The blade begins to glow a bright blue white. I head out in search of Jalad. I begin walking back to the rear of the ship checking doors on my way towards the engine room.

When I get to the rec. area still no Jalad when I finally get to the engine room I find Jalad he quickly draws his blade when he see's that I have the dragon blade he says “That's impossible that blade has only ever shown for one other and that was Astarot”

I respond “You have killed everyone WHY ? I want to know before I kill you.”

Jalad says “That sword is more proof that you are an abomination and must be eliminated. I can not have you mating with other species and eliminating all other species YOU must be destroyed.”

Jalad lunges at me with his blade, I turn and evade the strike I wield the blade as smoothly as a wind mill spinning in the wind. The dragon blade cuts his blade in half. The tip falls to the floor he backs up and and moves back in for another strike he makes contact with my weapon hand cutting my hand deeply forcing me to drop the dragon blade, he swings again and cuts my shoulder, then while I'm down on my knees just as he lunges I feel the cold metal blade enter my chest …

I wake up and everyone is still in bed, feeling me stir Valesz wakes up and says “What's wrong?”

I reply “I'm sorry my love I didn't mean to wake you I was just having a bad dream is all.”

She says “Lay back down.” and I comply she wraps her arms around me and says “It was just a dream my love it's all right.” she kisses me and we drift back to sleep.

End Chapter 13

                                                                                                          Chapter 14

As I wake from my slumber Valesz is still sleeping peacefully next to me. I crawl gently out of bed, just as I exit the bedroom Valesz stirs slightly but does not wake up, I turn and head for the galley after all of those breakfast that they have made for me its my turn to have breakfast ready for them.

When I get to the galley Mikko and Tiamat are enjoying a meal they both greet me “ Hello Paul”

I respond “Hello, how are you doing this morning?”

Tiamat replies “Good, how are you and the unicorns doing this morning?”

“I am fine, and the unicorns are still sleeping. I am making breakfast for every one this morning.”

Mikko replies “That is so sweet.”

Tiamat says “Don't let us stop you from your mission.”

I reply “Thank you” I proceed to the steaks and look for a small steak and a large steak. I find the ones that I am looking for and place them on a plate. Then I grab a large bowl and fill it with salad and a few other vegetables I chop them up and put them into the salad and add a light coating of vinaigrette to the salad, then I put a little of the salad dressing on the grill and begin it heating up. I season the steaks and then place them on the grill I quickly flip Valesz's steak leave it there for just a few seconds then pull her steak off the grill, then flip mine. I leave it there for just a minute then pull it off the grill as well, I turn the grill off grab the salad and some bowls and head back to Valesz's room.

When I get there everyone is already up and sitting in the main room, Lakia and Alkippe jump up and say “Let us help you with that.” Alkippe takes the salad and bowls and Lakia takes the two plates with the steaks.

Valesz stands and comes up to me and gives me a kiss and says “Good morning my love.”

I respond “Good morning.”

I gesture for her to sit down and she does. I take my seat next to her as I sit I say “ I know that I can trust everyone in this room so after breakfast unless you have other plans. We can start working on the plans to take care of the Mantis. Any ideas that you may have while planning will be welcome.”

Valesz replies “We don't have to be on the bridge right away so that would be fine.”

I watch as Celer, Dinos, Sigrun, and Alkippe all begin to eat their salad, as I notice that everyone is enjoying their meal I begin to eat my own. I begin thinking about the plans to take care of the Mantis. We need to find a world that is suitable to sustain life and be fairly close to a nebula or something that can mask a fleet of ships. As I take my last bite of my steak, I stand and walk over to the Viso screen and press a couple of buttons, and the Viso screen lights up.

I say “Computer access file PC0001 Alpha Gama Omega 1101 Green.”

The computer responds “File accessed.”

I say “Display statistical data on Mantis ships and troops.”

the Viso screen quickly fills with numbers and information ...

Mantis Battle ships 2000 each carrying 500 short range fighters.

Mantis troop ships 1500 each carrying 20,000 troops

Mantis destroyers 4 each capable of destroying a planet

Mantis battle ships top speed of 4xl fighters top speed 1xl but usually only use sub-light speeds.

The battle ship has 10 laser turrets and 10 torpedo launchers and can carry up to 50 torpedo's for each launcher

Mantis troop ships top speed 4.5xl each has 6 laser turrets and 4 torpedo launchers and can carry up to 10 torpedo's for each launcher

Mantis destroyers top speed is 2xl and has 4 laser turrets and 4 torpedo launchers and can carry up to 25 torpedo's for each launcher its primary weapon is a pulsar beam when activated super-heats the core of a planet until the planet explodes, this process takes approximately 14 minutes but varies from planet to planet depending on the size and the density of the core.

Valesz says “Thats 1,000,000 fighters and 30,000,000 troops , how do you expect to fight a force that size?”

I respond “That is why we are here to formulate a plan to do just that. But my basic plan is to get them all to one place and have a force that can and will annihilate them, of course we will need help and I have a few other ideas and we are here to discuss all of the options.”

Sigrun says “How do yo plan to get them all in one place?”

I respond “YOU !!!! or more to the point the idea of you. I am thinking that we will expose the Unicorn in the very near future, with the media and tell the media that there is a large colony of Unicorn near the Fox Fur Nebula in the constellation Monoceros (translates to “the unicorn”) there we will hide our fleet in the nebula and wait for the Mantis to attack, at witch time we will surprise them with our own attack and wipe out their forces.”

Celer Says “That sounds fine but where do you expect to get the forces to attack the Mantis?” I look at Celer and say “Take a look around you in this room what do you see ?”

He responds “ I see eight of us from 5 different species.”

I say “That's correct but more than that we are different species that have all learned to live together in harmony hell I now have three mates each a different species do you think that matters to me. Maybe at one time it might have but I have grown past that. I intend to unite the worlds of all of populated space, if we all work together we can rid ourselves of this common foe. Then and only then can the Unicorn begin to thrive again.”

Celer replies “If your plan fails then the Mantis will destroy every planet they come to that supports life like ours.”

I reply “I didn't say it was without risk there will probably be lives lost in the battle, but isn't freedom worth dying for? Was it right for the Mantis to destroy the Unicorn home world just because that you can teleport.”

Celer replies “Yes and no. It seems that you have made your point quite clear and are intent on riding the galaxy of the Mantis”

I say “That is not my only goal I intend on making this quadrant a safe place for everyone to live by uniting Populated space, I can accomplish that goal.” Just then the Viso screen chimes

Valesz Says “Computer open com” the Viso screen switches to a visual from the bridge it's Snowy

She says “Captain I hope I'm not disturbing you but we just got an incoming message that there was a Mantis spy caught on the Equine home world they say that he was a member of the engineering team for the ship yard for the last eight years , and that he was surgically and genetically altered to appear as an equine.”

Valesz responds “Thank you Snowy.” Valesz continues “Computer end transmission.” the Viso screen returns to the statistical report.

I say “I was starting to wonder if something like that was the case.”

Valesz says “What are you talking about?”

I reply “When I was working on your fathers ship I noticed that the engine was almost exactly offset the same as this ship, I was going to wait until that I had a chance to do another one but now I don't have to. The equine have already discovered their spy.”

Sigrun says “What if there are others disguised as other species?”

Valesz responds “Perhaps we can do something about that. Katherine go to the infirmary and unlock the communications array and have doc contact some of his friends on the equine home world and see if he can do some kind of test to reveal any spy's.”

Katherine says “Aye captain, I will return shortly” and Katherine walks out the door and heads towards the infirmary.

Valesz says “Computer open com to the bridge” The computer responds “Com open”

Valesz says “ Slow to 3.5xl.”

Drake responds “Aye Captain.”

Valesz says “Computer end transmission.”

The computer responds “Transmission terminated.”

Alkippe says “If I may why did you slow the ship down?”

Valesz responds “Because with a communication going out that will make tracking us just that much easier and we don't want anyone knowing that we can go that fast, at least not just yet.”

Alkippe replies “Thank you for answering my question.”

Valesz replies “Your welcome.”

Meanwhile at the infirmary

Katherine walks into the infirmary and calls out for the doctor “Doc you in here? Are you awake yet?”

She hears Attor's response “Just a second.”

Then he comes walking out of the office “What seems to be the problem are you injured?”

She replies “No doc I'm not hurt, but Valesz ask me to have you contact some of your friends on the equine home world and see if there is a way to detect a mantis spy.”

Attor responds “ Mantis spy … what are you talking about?”

Katherine responds “I'm sorry they have caught a spy on the equine home world and they say that he was surgically and genetically altered to appear as an equine.”

Attor replies “Oh really, I think I know just the one that I need to talk to then. Doctor Aeton

he is one of their foremost geneticists he will have the answer if there is one.”

Katherine walks into the office and presses a button on the Viso screen then says “Computer release communication lockout authorization doe beta 1 red.”

The computer responds “Communications unlocked.”

Katherine says to Attor “You might want to do this on a secure channel.”

Attor replies “Sure thing... computer open a secure communication link to the equine home world to the genetics lab Trinidon.”

the computer responds “Link established connecting … . . . connected.”

A voice says “Hello you have reached Trinidon labs.”

Attor responds hello this is Doctor Attor I'm trying to get in touch with Doctor Aeton .. code black.”

The voice responds “Just a minute I will transfer you to his office. He just checked in about 15 minutes ago so he should be in there by now.”

beep beep beep ….... then Doctor Aeton answers “Hello this is Doctor Aeton.” Attor responds “Hello Aeton how are you doing this is Doc Attor.”

Aeton responds “I'm doing good and how are you doing? Last I heard you were aboard a cargo ship.”

Attor responds “Yes actually I still am... are you on a secure line?”

Aeton replies “Hang on a second. … click beep .. ok it is now..”

Attor says “Good I can't go into any real detail but I need to know if you have been involved in the spy incident, and if there is a way to detect if someone is a spy.”

Aeton replies “Actually I'm working on that as we speak. I should have an answer for you in just a minute the computer is almost finished with the results.” Then they hear the computer beep in the background

Doctor Aeton says “Since I'm already on the com with you, you will be the first to get the results, I can't imagine why you would need this information but you ask for it. I'm transmitting the DNA skew now ..”

Attor responds “Thank you, now I am going to transmit another DNA skew back to you, you will find that there is an unknown skew embedded and if you want to find out more about it you will have to come to Vivus.”

Doctor Ateon replies “I have some vacation time I will be there asap.”

Attor replies “There will be a cargo ship there soon I would suggest that you catch a ride with them the ships name is the Lamri her captain is Captain Nidhug Unridoor.”

“You mean the one that just did the ceremony for … what was his name … Paul?”

Attor responds “Yes that's the one .. Paul Curtis, Valesz, Katherine, and Lakia.”

Aeton replies “That was one hell of a fight. I especially liked the ending I was watching it with my secretary and well lets just say we had a fight of our own.”

he pauses looking at another monitor then continues “I'm looking at that DNA you sent that's human, dragon skew isn't it I didn't realize that someone was already working with that combination. But what is this skew here even the computer don't have that DNA on file and the computer has DNA collected from the last 250 years. I would think that we had every DNA there was.”

Attor “Like I said if you want to find out in person get on that cargo ship.”

Aeton ask “What is he hauling ?”

Attor responds “Food products.”

Aeton very well I will look up his arrival, and book passage.”

Attor “Very well I will see you soon.”

Attor Says “Computer end transmission.”

The computer responds “Transmission terminated.”

Katherine Says “Computer lockout communication's array outgoing authorization doe beta 1 red.”

Katherine says “Now that you have that DNA can you use it to check for Mantis spy's?”

Attor responds “Yes I have enough Mantis DNA do run test since I just did some testing on a lot of the crew, I won't have to test everyone. I can cross the test that I have already done and then get everyone else to come in for further testing.”

Katherine says “Good I will inform the Captain you have what you need. Thank you.” and she heads out of the infirmary.

Back at Valesz's quarters

I say “I was wondering Valesz I saw the dragon blade hanging in the briefing room is there something special about that sword?”

Valesz responds “Actually yes there is how did you know ?”

I respond “Remember that dream that woke me up early this morning.”

Valesz says “Yes, I remember you waking up from a bad dream”

I say “That sword was part of the dream when I held the sword it glowed a bright Blue white”

She responds “That's not possible that sword hasn't glowed that bright since the great dragon wars over 10,000 years ago. It is told that only a great dragon leader can make that sword glow like that. The greater the leader the brighter it glows, it only glows a dim orange for me. But that was only a dream I still don't understand how you could even know that it glows at all that story is generally only told to dragons.”

Celer interrupts “Tell us more about this dream, it may not have been a dream at all but a glimps into the future, or at least a possible future.”

I respond “In short Jalad had killed everyone on the ship. I found him and you Valesz in the briefing room. I seen the fatal strike he gave you, you died in my arms then I took the sword from it's case and went after Jalad.”

Valesz “I still don't understand how you could have known about the sword.”

Celer responds “It is rare but unicorn do occasionally get glimpses into the future it is one of our powers but still undeveloped in evolutionary terms.”

Valesz responds “If you will excuse me for just a minute I will be right back.” and she heads out the door and quickly returns with the sword in her hand as she enters the room she says “Computer reduce lighting by fifty percent.”

The computer dims the lights, and we can see that the sword has a faint glow then she takes the sword by the blade and hands me the hilt of the sword. Just as in the dream the sword lights up the room with a bright blue white light …..

Katherine walks in behind Valesz and sits next to Lakia.

Valesz says “There is another story to go with the others, but before I mention it I want you to try and remember your dream and think hard about Jalad since he was the one in the dream. Then close your eyes and wield the sword like you did in your dream.”

I take the sword hold it tightly close my eyes and begin remembering the dream , I remember the part where I go into the briefing room and see Jalad plunging his blade into Valesz then I continue through the dream to where I break the case and pull out the sword and it begins to glow. I continue through the dream again now at the engine room . Remembering when Jalad lunges at me with his blade thinking back to the part when he killed Valesz in the dream I feel a rage building up inside of me, the blade glows even brighter then all of a sudden the blade burst into flames as I wield the blade I can hear the flames fluttering with the movement of the blade. I stop and open my eyes and the blade really is ablaze.

Valesz says “This blade will be with you until the day you die, or until you pass it down to to your progeny. Here is it's sheath wear it always. Well except in bed.”(everyone laughs) I take the sheath and sling it across my left shoulder then sheath the blade and the room goes dim.

Valesz says “Computer return lights to normal level.” the lights brighten.

I say “In my dream Jalad mentioned that the sword had only glowed for one other before me he said that is was Astarot that it shown for.”

Valesz replies “When my father gave me the sword he told me not to reveal the swords true history unless I found the person that it glowed brightly for. So the story I told was true but only to a point. It did glow for Astarot but only a bright red. Not at all like it does for you. This battle that you are about to start, I believe that you will win and regain freedom for the unicorn and the rest of Populated space. Now I told you that there was another story to go with the sword.”

I respond “yes”

Valesz continues “10,000 years ago during the dragon wars there was a dragon named Pendragon he led the revolt against the dragon leader of that time named Leviathan. Leviathan was a ruthless leader and would kill just for the shear pleasure of it. So when Pendragon found the Dragon Sword or should I say the sword found him, he began planning the revolt against Leviathan, just as the sword has now found you, it is your turn to make 10,000 years of peace.”

I reply “talk about the weight of the world on one mans shoulders , only this time its the weight of the galaxy. That story Pendragon was going after one dragon I am going after an entire armada.”

Valesz says “That is true but you will have all of Populated space behind you Pendragon only had a legion of dragons. I know that you can convince everyone to join the cause, something else when you walk into the the counsel chambers in the great hall... well do you remember how I treated Celer when I first found out who he was?”

I reply “Yes I remember.”

“You should expect that when you enter the chambers, once they realize that you now wield the dragon sword.”

I say “Okay, I will deal with that when the time comes we need to get back to the task at hand.”

I continue “We need to give the Mantis a target in space before they even get close to the planet so they don't realize that there are not any unicorns there.”

Celer responds “We have used an old tactic we would use a derelict ship in a given location and wait for the enemy to attack it.”

I respond “We are going to need more than one derelict ship, does anyone know where we might be able to find oh say a hundred or so ships?”

Valesz replies “That will take some work and a little time but I know of a few ship yards where we might be able to get maybe thirty to fifty ships from each they wont be much more then empty hulls though.”

I respond “That's all we need, decoys and if any of them can be made to run we can load them up with fighters so when the time comes the fighters can blast their way out and begin our assault.”

Katherine says “It sure would be nice if we had some kind of energy deflectors.”

I reply “You know I just might be able to make that happen too. I was in my final semester when one of my professors told me that he was working on a prototype energy field. That was 3 years ago , he just might have done it by now, I will have to contact him and find out.”

Valesz responds “Now would be a good time to do it. If he has finished his work we sure could use the technology.”

Valesz turns to Katherine and says “Will you unlock the array again for Paul to contact his professor.”

Katherine responds “Aye Captain, Computer release communication array lockout authorization doe beta 1 red.”

The computer responds “Communications unlocked” I say “Before we open communications Celer, Sigrun, Alkippe, and Dinos will you please exit to the bedroom for a few minutes.” as they enter the bedroom Kathrine says “Computer open secure link to..”

She pauses and looks at me and ask “Who are you trying to contact and what institution can he be found at?”

I reply “ Dr. Paul Simon at the space engineering academy.”

The computer replies “Com open” the viso screen lights up a beautiful brunet answers “Hello how may I help you. Oh who ever you are you just made my day.” with a big smile on her face.

I respond “I'm sorry, I forgot to put some clothes on.” she says “It's quite alright I like it, how may I help you Mr.?”

I reply “Paul Curtis, I need to speak to Dr. Paul Simon.”

She says “ I remember now I saw you on the viso screen the other night, pleased to make your acquaintance. But Dr. Simon is in lecture right now.” I respond “This is very important can you please patch me through.”

She replies “Hang on just a second I will see what I can do. The viso screen changes to the schools emblem (a dark blue background with a ship flying past Saturn.)

Valesz says “Do you want to cover up before you talk to the professor.” I respond “No this is space and humans will have to get use to this sooner or later. I know that it didn't take me long to get use to it”

Valesz responds “But your not like other humans are you.”

I reply “No but humans are one of a very few species that constantly wears clothes and since we are rapidly joining Populated Space we need to adapt to it not it to us, and contrary to popular belief humans are quite adaptable.”

Valesz responds “If they are anything like you I have to agree”

The screen switches back to the brunet. She says “He will speak with you. He told me to tell you that it will be in front of his class so be ready for that.”

I respond “Thank you and have a good day.” The screen switches to the classroom. There must be 100 college students in his lecture when they see me and my mates all naked the room fills with awes.

Dr Simon says “To what do we owe this honor of your contact. Mr. Curtis?”

I respond “Before I get to that I would like to say a few words to the class if I may.”

Dr. Simon replies “Go right ahead.”

I begin “Class as you see me now just as a few nights ago as you saw me in the fight and during the ceremonies. This is life in space most species don't wear clothes so this is something that you might want to get use to, unless you are stationed aboard a human ship. I hope that all of you make it out here and enjoy it as much as I have. Now back to the real reason that I called.”

Dr. Simon says “And that is?”

I respond “Do you remember telling me about a prototype that you were working on three years ago?”

Dr. Simon responds “Yes I remember, what about the deflectors. It's okay the class knows in fact most of the world knows.”

I respond “Have you got them in production yet?”

Dr. Simon responds “Yes about six months ago. We started productions with the new Tachyon drives there is enough power to run the deflectors, the problem then was the old Ion drives just couldn't produce enough power to run them, it would take an Ion drive running constantly at 150% to operate the Deflectors.”

I reply “Doc are you on a secure channel what I have to say from here out needs to be kept to a minimum.”

Dr. Simon replies “Hang on I will go into my office and transfer the com there.”

I reply “Thank you, and class good luck.” The class responds “Thank you.” the Viso screen switches to his office

Dr. Simon says “We are on a secure channel now why such secrecy?”

I reply “Doc have you heard of the Mantis”

He responds “Yes I have, the pirates of the galaxy.”

I say “Yes but not for much longer if I have anything to do with it. That is why I contacted you, I am going to need a lot of your deflectors.”

Simon replies “What do you mean a lot?”

I respond “How many can you produce in a days time”

He replies “In a days shift 500.”

I say “In that case we will need about 15 days worth running double shift.”

He replies “Your serious aren't you?”

I respond “Dead serious doc. I am about to start a war to rid the galaxy of the Mantis threat, and your deflectors would come in very useful.”

Doc responds “But there are not that many tachyon drive ships yet, how do you plan to power the deflectors with an Ion drive, we tried for almost 2 years to get an Ion drive to power the deflector. Its not possible”

I respond “Yes it is doc I have the engine on this ship running at 172% efficiency, and now that you have told me that the engines need to be at a minimum of 150% I have a base line to work with, over the next month I intend to have my upgrades going on any and every ship that I can get to join my cause.”

Dr. Simon ask “How fast can that ship go”

I respond “I will tell you but you must promise not to tell anyone else in fact this conversation never took place.”

Dr. Simon responds “You have my word.”

I say “We have had this ship up to 6.7xl but the engines ran a little hot so we have a set cruising speed of 6.5”

Doc replies “The new Tachyon drives don't go much faster than that they have a cruising speed of 7.0. I tell you what I will do since your cause seems to be just and I know that you need these deflectors I will make you a deal if you come to earth to pick up the deflectors and teach me how you made the Ion drives run at 172% I will give you all the deflectors you need.”

I reply “How interesting the student becoming the teacher.”

I look at Valesz and say “This is your ship I can not say where it is to go.”

She looks back at me and says “You know my love that we will do what it takes to complete this goal of yours. We should reach Vivus by tomorrow I think that we can be at Earth in 1 week after we finish with the counsel.”

I say “Thank you my love.” then I turn back to the screen and say “Expect us in about 10 days, the crew needs a little R and R before we begin our quest.” Doc ask “how are you going to convince the dragon counsel to agree to you little plan?” I respond “ I can't go into that over communications but when we reach earth you can learn the truth then.”

Dr. Simon responds “Very well then I will wait, until then safe journey.” The Viso screen goes blank once again.

Katherine says “Computer lockout communication's array outgoing authorization doe beta 1 red, now that all that is over the Doctor has a test that he can run to find a Mantis spy, he is going to begin testing on the samples that he already has in his lab, then he will call the rest of the crew in for testing.”

Valesz responds “Thank you Katherine.”

Valesz says “Computer open com to the bridge.”

The computer responds “Com open”

Snowy responds “Yes Captain?”

Valesz “Resume our previous course and speed”

Snowy Responds “Aye captain.”

Valesz “Computer end communication” and the screen goes blank again”

I call out to Celer and the others “It's safe to come back out now.” they all enter the main room Celer says “You show great restraint my friend.”

I reply “ What do you mean.” when you were talking to the female on the viso screen I could feel your arousal you want to fuck her.

I respond “How the hell.....”

Celer responds “Unicorns are telepathic to a degree with practice we can communicate but normally we only sense emotion, we try not to eavesdrop, but that feeling was a bit strong and hard to ignore.”

I respond “If you can read me do you think it is possible that I can do the same ?”

Celer responds “I don't know try and find out, but try it with one of the females they are usually a bit better at that form of communication than the males, Dinos try and focus on a peculiar thought to make it easier for Paul.”

She responds “Okay.” I try to focus on her and in an instant I get a flash of a memory and with it a flood of emotion it was a memory from last night when she was having an orgasm. My cock grew instantly feeling this emotion, and I say “So that is what an orgasm feels like for a female I never would have thought that they were quite that intense, thank you for sharing that with me”

Dinos says “Your welcome, I was trying to think of something that would be strong enough for you to pick up on, I guess that did the trick.”

Celer says “Yes I looks like it worked just fine now Dinos since you got him all excited why don't you help him with his problem.” then he whispers something in her ear “conscientia exercitatio”…..

Dinos stands up and walks up to me and begins kissing me she tries to probe my mouth with her tongue but my mouth just can't accept that much so I return the favor and begin probing her mouth with my tongue she quickly breaks the kiss and lowers herself in front of me and begins to lick my already firm cock she quickly engulfs my cock in her mouth then all of a sudden I start getting images and feelings from Dinos she is really enjoying sucking on my cock giving me pleasure (That's the easy part to deal with.) the images of her going down on me from her perspective is totally new to me but what the hell am I talking about this is all new to me only a few days ago I was a virgin now here I am getting fellatio from a unicorn.

She stops, she turns around and lifts her tail up and to the side so I have a perfect view of her beautiful pink pussy. She begins winking that pussy as if to say you better do something. She is still bent over so I drop to my knees and begin licking around her pussy teasing her. I get a sensation of just how much I am teasing her the feeling is quite overwhelming, so I continue my onslaught on her pussy and begin probing her with my tongue, licking and sucking on her and then another wave of feelings from her. I hear her say “Fuck me like the unicorn stud you are.” but I didn't actually hear her, it was to clear for that she had told me in thought only. So I try and concentrate and try and reply to her the same way “Yes, my sweet unicorn mare.”

She stops and turns her head towards me and says “I heard that.”

Celer says “Heard what?”

Dinos says “He spoke to me telepathically.”

Celer responds “Good now let's really test his abilities.”

Celer stands in front of Dinos his cock slightly poking out of it's captive sheath. Dinos quickly takes the head of his cock into her mouth. Then I hear “Fuck me you unicorn stud.” and she winks her pussy at me then I start getting more images and feelings from Dinos. She does enjoy sucking cock words can't begin to convey how much she enjoys it. The images, talk about a close up view of Celer's cock it is like I'm the one sucking him, but I know that's not possible that thing is huge and wouldn't fit into my mouth like it does hers. I finally get caught up and realize that she is still in front of me waiting for my cock. I decide to give her a few more licks first. I place my hands on her butt and bury my face deep into her sending my tongue as deep as I can go into her, sending waves of pleasure throughout her body witch she conveys directly to me. I almost cum with this wave of pleasure. So I stop for just a moment I position myself behind her guiding my hard cock to her wanting pussy. I rub it up and down her wet slit to get my cock wet and then she winks again squirting her lube allover me there is no doubt that my cock is now wet enough to easily enter her. I push in all the way burying myself in her. I never thought that she would be so tight but she winks and pushes me all the way out. Then I hear her say “Sorry I didn't mean to do that.” I send her the thought “It's okay my sweet.” She stops sucking on Celer for a moment she turns and smiles and quickly returns to her task in front of her. I guide myself back to her sweet pussy and push in again this time I hold on to her waist so that she can't push me out so easily. but the next time she winks she pulls me into her. I begin thrusting my cock in and out of her and she winks with my rhythm just as I bury my cock into her each time I feel her pulling me deeper into her with her winks.

Just as I begin to get accustomed to her winking on my cock, I start getting waves of pleasure but they are not coming from Dinos they are Celer's thoughts and feelings, with my pounding Dinos and now to feel Celer's orgasm building its almost maddening then I realize that my own orgasm is beginning to build, now I am getting waves of pleasure from Dinos too so now I am dealing with my own orgasm , Celer's orgasm and Dinos's orgasm and it pushes me way over the top I begin filling Dinos with my cum and the feelings only intensify with each flood of my cum its as if I can feel all 3 of us cumming at the same time it is totally indescribable. I collapse onto Dinos's back totally exhausted. After a minute I begin to regain a little strength and I begin to focus a thought for Dinos “ thank you my sweet unicorn mare , that was absolutely astonishing.” she responds “ I thought so to my little unicorn stud”

Celer says “ I don't believe it you made it all the way through the session, I'm very impressed, my first (“mind fuck if you will”) I made it to the second wink and it was all over for me. I don't think that anyone has ever gone as far as you just have on their first mind fuck, your control is very unique.”

Valesz ask “mind fuck? , what are your talking about?”

Celer responds when ever a unicorn begins to develop their mental abilities they are tested with a sexual situation, where they get flooded with feelings and emotions of all parties involved.”

Valesz responds “So he was feeling both of your sexual experiences while feeling his own”

Dinos replies “ that's exactly it. In time he may even develop his mental abilities to a point where he can share his feelings with you, but for now I'm afraid he will only be able to communicate with unicorns directly.”

I reply “What the hell I will give it a try it can't hurt. Valesz relax and clear your mind lay back and try to focus on me and only me.”

Valesz lays back and closes her eyes, I relax and begin to think of what me and the unicorns had just shared , quite to the point the last few seconds of intense emotion and feelings, while holding those thoughts I begin to focus on Valesz and then she lets out a scream and clutches the the cushions of the sofa then she opens her eyes .

I say “are you alright my love , I'm sorry I wont try that again.”

She says “I'm fine, fuck that was intense. That is what you just went through with the unicorns?”

I glance down and notice that her sweet juices are running down her tail. I waste no time and begin licking her clean I start at the bottom just before it begins dripping off of her tail and slowly lick my way up to her wet pussy.

Just as I begin to lick her pussy clean she stops me, and says “After that mind fuck I'm just a bit too sensitive for that just now.”

Celer says “Quite impressive, now would Lakia and Katherine like to try?”

They both respond with a bold “HELL YES!!!”

Celer says “Just sit back and relax, Valesz after your little mind fuck you might want to leave the room, I am going to try to get Paul to do this one a little different, unless you want to feel it again.”

Valesz responds “I think I will stay.”

Celer says “That's fine but I want you to sit farthest from Paul. Now Paul I want you to sit in the middle of Katherine and Lakia. Now you two, I want you to get ready for the most intense sexual feelings that you have ever had.”

Valesz says “He is not kidding, intense just doesn't describe it.”

Celer says “Now relax and just like Valesz did the first time clear your thoughts and focus on Paul. Paul now when you gave Valesz this thought you were thinking just of her this time I want you to try and think of all three. This might make it a little easier, think of a time when all three of you were in very close proximity. Now that you have that thought try and project the thought of our encounter.”

While he is telling me how and what to think of I remember the first time that we were all in bed together, the time that they were taking turns with me ravishing me, then I turn to the thought of the last few seconds of the mind fuck, and I unleash them. Lakia and Katherine both grab each of my legs and squeeze extremely tightly each begin drawing blood as they scream. While Valesz grabs a cushion and Lakia's leg she buries her claws into Lakia's leg. The pain instantly breaks my concentration and I realize what has happened. I say will one of you please call the Doc and have him bring a med kit quickly. Just then Valesz tries to pull her hand from Lakia's leg but Lakia screams in pain,

I say “Leave your hand there you might have punctured a blood vessel and we need the doc here for that. My wounds how ever are not that severe.” Lakia and Katherine both remove there hands and blood begins to run from the wounds in my legs.

Celer says “Relax Paul place your hands over the wounds, now this will take a bit more concentration than the mind link but I believe that you can do it. I want you to think of your legs just before we tried this. … relax, clear your mind now think of how your legs looked before.”

I do as he says I begin to relax and think of my legs before this happened. I begin to feel an intense heat filling my body for a second the wounds throb with pain but it soon subsides.

Celer says “ I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!! , he actually did it.” and with hearing that I pass out.

Several hours later I wake up to find myself in bed with Valesz next to me. I think “Was it a dream?” Dinos was on the other side of me and she responds in thought “No sweet it was not a dream.”

This startles me and I quickly shift to see that Dinos was laying next to me as well, she says “ I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you, it was just that you ask a question and I answered it.”

I think “It's okay, it's just that I hadn't realized that you were here as well and that question was to myself I wasn't expecting a response, lets continue communicating like this I don't want to wake Valesz just yet.

Dinos responds “That's fine by me.”

I think “Now what happened? The last thing I remember is Celer saying (“he actually did it”) what did I do?”

She responds “You healed yourself. Very few unicorn have reached that level of mental ability, and you did it on your first day of awareness.”

I ask in thought “What does this all mean?”

She responds “I have been thinking about that question for the last couple of hours myself and I can only come up with two possibility's either you are the next step in the evolutionary chain or you are a fluke, a freak of nature, either way I am glad that you are here.”

I respond “I am glad to be here too.”

She responds “There is something that you need to know but I am not going to tell you what , but I want you to feel my body with your mind, I know that you are still weak from the healing but I know that you can do it.”

I respond “What am I looking for?”

She replies “NO! you have to look on your own.”

I reply “Okay.” then I begin thinking about her body and begin scanning her something like a cat scan or an MRI would, I begin at the top of her head working my way down slowly it is as if I can see her insides , its quite remarkable actually .. as I continue working my way down I stop momentarily at her breast I notice some small changes looks like the glands there are beginning to swell slightly”

She ask me you see something interesting there?” as if I'm staring at her breast like I want to suck on them, so I continue my search working my way down I see that her heart is beginning to race a bit, she seems to be excited. I continue my scan I get to her stomach … could have done with out that picture I will spare you that description... I continue down a little further and there I see what she wanted me to find it is an embryo in the first stage of development. I place my hand over her belly where the womb is .

She says “I see that you found what I was talking about.”

I respond “Yes , I'm happy for you and Celer.”

She responds “This foal is not Celer's it's yours.”

I reply “Mine??? but it has only been a few hours how could you know.”

She responds “A mare knows almost instantly when she is pregnant, and don't worry about Celer he already knows and is quite happy about it. quite indirectly this is his child but it is only because you carry his DNA in you that makes this possible. In any case it is up to you to tell Valesz , Katherine and Lakia.”

I reply “I will tell them as soon as we all get together again.”

                                                                                                        Chapter 15

Dinos and I get out of bed to leave Valesz sleep I notice that Lakia and Katherine are on the other side of Valesz sleeping peacefully.

I turn and say in though to Dinos “I want to try something, they are sleeping peacefully I want to try and give them a happy dream”

Dinos responds “Don't make it too happy.”

I turn back to my mates and begin thinking of our matting ceremony. In an instant a smile sweeps across each of their faces.

Dinos says in thought “That must be a very pleasant thought that you gave them.”

I respond “It was the memory of our matting ceremony.” and we exit the bedroom I grab the sword and sling it over my shoulder.

As we enter the main room Celer walks up to me and gives me a big squeezing bear hug and says “Congratulations.”

I reply in thought “ Dinos told me that you were happy about it but I didn't thing that you would be that happy.”

He responds “Why shouldn't I be my mate is pregnant and I have you to thank for it.”

I respond “But wouldn't you want to be the father?”

Celer responds “Yes, but that coupling was a very special one. It was done during an awareness test and a pregnancy conceived during those is extremely rare, not to mention the fact that you are human and obviously compatible with just about every species in populated space. So begins a new dawn for civilization and my mate is going to give birth to the very beginning of it.”

Just then the door opens and it's Jalad standing in the doorway. I communicate to the unicorns to teleport out of the room.

I say “Computer seal bedroom door level eight authorization Alpha, Gama, Omega, 1011, green.”

As I draw my sword it begins to glow brighter that it had before its almost blinding white.

Jalad says “You know that I must destroy you.” I reply “Yes, I know how you feel my friend , you feel that I am an abomination and that I am the beginning of the end of civilization as you know it.”

Jalad responds “How the hell did you know what I was going to say”

I respond “That don't matter now, what matters is if you persist then only one of us will leave this room alive.”

Jalad responds “Then only one of us will leave because I can not let you live. I know that the doctor is about to discover who I am and you already know why I'm here. Let's begin.”

Jalad draws his sword and swings it towards my mid section. But I deflect it with the dragon sword slicing through his blade. The tip of his blade falls to the floor. He swings again and again the dragon blade slices another piece of his blade off.

I say “At this rate I will be fighting an unarmed man very soon.”

He responds “How dare you call me a MAN!!!! , even you are not a man your a freak of nature.”

I respond “You may see me as a freak. But I see myself as the next step in evolution. I will give you this last chance to stop and reconsider what you are doing.”

Jalad responds by lunging his sword at me. I cut his sword at the hilt the blade falls to the floor with a loud ting. I reach out with my mind and replay the dream that I had with Jalad for him letting him feel the anguish and hate that I had built up in the dream. He falls to his knees screaming “STOP !!!! STOP IT !!!!!” I release his mind.

Jalad says “Kill me now or I WILL kill you.” I resume my link with him this time I'm not giving him information I'm looking for it digging through his thoughts as easily as rummaging through a pile of paperwork scanning images of his life watching him go through the procedure to become something other than what he was there were several others too at least one from each race, Dragon, Equine,Deer, Fox, Catian, and many others, wait I see something, the Mantis already know that there are Unicorn , that is why they did this they are trying to search them out to finish destroying them. I again release his mind he falls to the floor and rolls onto his back holding his head.

Jalad says “Kill me and be done with it.”

I raise the dragon sword and run it through his chest. As the sword pierces Jalad and goes all the way into the floor, suddenly the gravity in the room goes to zero.

I begin floating and say “Damn it I just ruined a perfectly good gravity generator.” I pull myself back to the floor with the sword and say “Computer release seal on bedroom door Alpha, Gama Omega, 1011 green”

The computer responds “Door released.”

The door opens Valesz grabs the doorway and launches herself towards me. I release the sword and reach to grab Valesz as she approaches me but I can't stop her she wraps her arms around me and we both go flying into the wall behind me embraced in a kiss of deep passion.

We break the kiss and Valesz says “You did it, you changed your future and ours. When Celer told me what was happening I was so afraid that I was going to loose you my love.”

I reply “You will never loose me my love, I will love you even after death.”

Celer says “Can we get the gravity fixed in here, I never liked zero G training.”

I respond “Computer open communications to the engine room”

The computer responds “Com open” Zipper says “Can I help you?”

I respond “Actually yes you can Zipper, bring a gravity generator to the captain's quarters and wear your gravity boots.”

He responds “We are on our way.”

I respond “Thank you; Computer end transmission”

The computer responds “Transmission terminated”

Celer makes his way to the door and opens it takes hold of the opening and pulls himself to the floor and steps out of the room.

He reaches back in for Dinos and says “You better stand on the floor before you come out.”

Dinos does as she is told she takes hold of Celer and pulls herself to the floor and walks out. Everyone else follows one by one. Before I head out I make my way back to my sword and Jalad's corps, I take hold of the sword and pull it out. Now what the hell am I suppose to do with this pointing to Jalad's floating body.

Valesz says “Katherine have drake bring a torpedo case up here and we will put his body in that... on second thought go get Attor he may want to do some test or something.”

Katherine responds “Aye captain.” Katherine disappears down the corridor.

Valesz says “lets go to the bridge while Zipper, and Squeaky repair the gravity generator and the doctor tends to Jalad.”

Valesz turns and walks to the bridge door and enters with everyone else following. As she enters the bridge she says “Report.” Drake is the first to respond “Weapons systems ready” Snowy “Engines running at 172%, ETA 18 hours 32 minutes.”

I say “If we increase to 6.7xl we should get there about 6 hours sooner. It's about 20:00 now that would put us arriving at about 08:30 give or take a few minutes. I will explain the urgency in private.”

Valesz says very well, “Snowy increase speed to 6.7xl.”

Snowy responds “Aye captain, 6.6 6.7xl, computer estimates new ETA 12 hours 17 minutes.”

I say “Well I was close.”

Lakia says “Not bad, for not using a computer.”

Valesz says “ I have an announcement to make.” everyone's attention is now on Valesz. Valesz says “ Jalad is no longer with us. Paul killed him in battle. It seems that Jalad was a Mantis spy.”

Drake ask “What happened how did you find out, and how did you kill him?”

Snowy says “Wait isn't that the dragon sword strapped to your back? But your Human why do you carry the dragon sword?”

I respond , okay okay give me a minute to explain. First off I am not 100% human , I have dragon DNA as well as unicorn DNA that will take to much time to explain but Valesz brought me the sword because of a dream I had. A premonition if you will.

Valesz interrupts “Paul just pull the sword out of its sheath, and that will explain it.”

I respond “Aye captain” I do as I am told. I take hold of the sword and quickly pull it from its captive sheath and the sword begins to glow bright blue white as before. all of the dragons on the bridge slip out of their chairs and drop to one knee.

Valesz says “This is were I get to say I told you so. I warned you that they would react like this.”

I sheath the blade and say “Stand up everyone. Please I'm not worthy of such respect at least not yet.”

Drake responds “But you make the Dragon sword glow white only a great leader can do that.”

I respond “I can not be considered a great leader until after great things have been done.”

Drake responds “Yes, Lord Paul Curtis.” and bows his head.

I say “I give up, let's continue the meeting in the briefing room.”

Valesz says “When Katherine gets here please send her into the briefing room.”

We all enter the briefing room the door closes behind us. We all take a seat around the elongated conference table. There are ten chairs around the table, four on each side and one on each end.

Valesz says “What is so urgent that you had us increase speed?”

I reply “During my battle with Jalad I started probing his mind and learned that the Mantis already know that there are unicorn hiding among the other species. That's why they have planted spy's to seek them out to continue destroying them.”

Celer ask “I noticed that the battle was rather short, you defeated him quite easily what happened?”

I respond “Well to be honest it was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be, nothing like it was in my dream. Perhaps a little demonstration would be helpful, Lakia would you help me?”

Lakia responds “Of course my love.”

I say “Please stand up in front of me.” and she does. I say “Now hit me, make your hands into fist and hit me.”

She replies “But I don't want to hurt you my love”

I reply “You won't hurt me, you can't hurt me. Now HIT ME!!” she makes a feeble swing I lean back and she misses. I say “Let me make this easier for you pretend that I am Jalad the night that you defended yourself against him.” I can feel the anger building in her. She throws a right hook, I block with my left arm. She throws a left and I block with my right arm. She kicks but just as she leans her weight on her tail I jump up into the air her feet hit nothing but air. I land back on my feet. She whips around and tries to tail sweep my feet, but again I jump she finishes her spin with a hook and I block with my arm and say “Enough. Thank you”

Lakia ask “How did you do that? No one has ever avoided me like that.”

I respond “My love I knew what you were going to do before you did. That is how I was able to defeat Jalad so quickly well that and if you will a different kind of mind fuck.”

Celer says “What do you mean different kind of mind fuck?”

I reply “In the same way that I was able to share our experience with my mates, I shared pain, hate and anger to Jalad, then after that I started to forcefully extract information from his mind... speaking of searching minds Katherine is about to walk in.” Then the door opens and Katherine enters the briefing room.

Valesz says “Katherine you just missed a good show Paul had Lakia try to hit him and she couldn't lay a paw on him.”

She responds “ I would have loved to see that.”

I say “ I can arrange that if you like, who's point of view would you like?”

She replies “Will this be like the last time you shared with us?”

I respond “No this won't have the extreme feelings.”

She says “ Valesz would you mind?”

Valesz responds “No I don't mind”

I approach Valesz and say “Remember.” she starts thinking about the scrimmage between Lakia and myself, I begin reading her thoughts seeing it from her point of view.

I comment “Not only are your eyes beautiful you see quite differently than I do. The images are so much more detailed that I see.” Then I say “Katherine are you ready?”

She responds “Yes”

I say “Clear your mind and relax.” I approach Katherine and begin replaying the memory for her. Just as I finish she takes a step back she looks a little week I grab her and say “Are you ok?”

She responds “Yes, its just that I'm not use to seeing those kinds of colors and detail, I got dizzy for a second.”

Celer says “Looks like your developing your mental abilities very quickly now.”

I respond “Yes it seems so, almost like to do something all I have to do is think about it and it happens.”

Celer responds “Let's just try exactly that. Place your sword and sheath on the table then step back from the table.”

I respond “okay.” and set the sword on the table.

Celer says “Now pick it up” I step back towards the table.

Celer says “No not with your hands use your mind to pick it up.” I take a step back .

Celer says “Now clear your mind and close your eyes, picture the sword in your mind use the image of it laying on the table. Now imagine it standing up on the table ok now flip the sword over so that it is standing on its handle, very good now remove the sheath from the blade and let it lay on the table. Okay now open your eyes”

I see the sword standing up with the sheath removed the blade is glowing it's bright blue white.

Celer says “Now bring the sword to you slowly.” The sword raises off of the table and begins moving towards me I take the hilt in my hand.

Celer says “Now bring the sheath to you. This time do it more quickly.” The sheath flies through the air hitting my hand with a smack.

Celer “Okay one more try releasing them into the air and sheath the sword with your mind.” I release the sheath first it falls it stops just millimeters from the floor I bring it back up to eye level then release the sword this time nothing falls they are just floating in front of me in mid air. Celer says “ now place the sword in it's sheath. I concentrate and both the sword and sheath are now horizontal the sword slowly slides into the sheath all the way in to the hilt. I raise my left arm and place the sheath across my shoulder.

Celer says “Very nice. It took me almost a week to do that. Your control is amazing.”

I respond “Thank you”

Celer says “There is a way to expedite your development, since you have come this far so quickly I'm sure that you can do it.”

I respond “What do I have to do?” well the four of us will all link to you and each will give you the training mentally we each have our strong points and each will teach you something different or expand on what you already know, there is a small draw back to this method. It is extremely mentally challenging, and an exhaustive procedure and everyone involved will need to sleep much like what happened when you healed yourself.”

I respond “I have only been awake for a couple of hours now, lets wait a few hours. I don't want to be tired when we get to Vivus.”

Celer replies “As you wish, there is one more thing since we will be giving you so much information while we are linked if we find that you excel in a particular area that we lack then that information will be shared by us as well, this type of link is a two way conduit since I know that you can heal and I lack in that area I may learn from you.”

I reply “Sounds like a fair deal, we each gain from the others.” Celer says “I'm sure that I don't have to say, not to discuss this with anyone else ever. This kind of link is one of our most guarded secrets.”

I say “since we are talking about linking , there is something in your skull that I would like to see.”

Celer says “What is it?”

I respond “If you don't mind I would like to try and find it myself.”

Celer says “I have a lot of memories a little more than 2000 years worth, do you think you can handle that?”

I reply “ I think I can”

Celer says “ I also have some memories that you will find disturbing. Remember I have seen war.”

I respond “I think I can handle that too.”

Celer says “Any time your ready.”

I begin digging through his mind. The last few years going from ship to ship hiding in cargo holds even with his mate so lonely its almost unbearable, I keep digging further back the images from the war seeing the Mantis hideous creatures evil looking, they look very similar to the preying mantis back on earth. Only they stand about three meters tall. (Oh he wasn't kidding when he said he had some disturbing memories.) to see a Mantis literally bite the head off of a unicorn. I continue going deeper into his memories deeper and deeper I go looking for that memory I finally reach a time before the Mantis but the memory I am looking for is much deeper.

I hear Celer say “If you tell me what you want I can bring it to the top for you.”

I respond “I'm doing ok but thank you.” I continue digging deeper I think I'm back close to 1000 years by now. But its still deeper so deeper I go .. he sure has had some fun in his past I would say that unicorns use to make love at the drop of a hat, any hat. Perhaps soon enough it will be that way again. But I still need to go deeper .. oh wait I almost past it I see the memories that I am looking for. His visit to earth 2000 years ago. There his first meeting with my 100th generation grandmother, so that's why he felt so compelled to help her she was ducking in that ravine to avoid being see by them, he felt that it was his fault that she fell. Lets skip forward just a little here they are all sitting eating dinner enjoying the company, Celer is reaching for his glass and … ill be damned he just knocked it over like he did to me, oh she looks pissed she is beat red and damn he is right she has that vein popping out just like he mentioned, he really did enjoy watching her get mad at him. Ok she is starting to settle down again, she is a rather striking woman shapely figure to boot. Long flowing dark hair, big beautiful blue-green hazel eyes.. ok thats enough, I got to see what I wanted to see. I release the link. I step back using the wall to hold me up while I regain my balance.

Valesz says “Are you ok?”

I reply “I will be fine. Just a lot to deal with.”

Celer says “With what you just did I'm surprised your still standing at all.”

Valesz says “What did he just do?”

Celer says “He just went back 2000 years to meet his 100th generation grandmother, and that was after he stopped and caught a few scenes from the Mantis attack, and a few other little stops he made but no need to mention those.”

I say “So you were aware of everything that I saw.

Celer replies “Yes, everything you saw and felt. I tried to suppress some of the emotion during the attack. I tried to warn you about that though.”

I reply “Yes you did , and I thank you for holding that back for me during that part.”

Celer says “You preformed that quite well in fact if it were a unicorn doing it I would venture that you had been doing that for at least 250 years, you are quite adept at mind linking. But for now I think you need to just relax for a while.”

I reply “ I'm not going to argue that point, how about we go down to the Rec. area?”

Valesz says “How about we go to the galley first, and get something to eat.”

I respond “That sounds good to me.” everyone stands and we exit the briefing room …..

When we arrive at the galley I ask everyone to take a seat. I sit at the table myself.

Valesz says “I thought that we were going to eat?”

I respond “We are. How would you like your steak?”

She replies “You know how I want it.” No one seemed to notice that the light on the grill was now on indicating that the grill was heating up. Then when they hear the oil hit the hot grill everyone notices that the oil is just setting back down on the shelf.

Valesz says “Damn it Paul warn me before you do stuff like that.”

“What you mean like this?” and seven bowls all line up in a row at the salad bar and I start filling them with salad.

I ask “Is there anything specific anyone wants in their salad?”

Sigrun says “The way that you make the salads is just fine with me.”

Celer says “Same here.”

Katherine says “I would like some fruit from one of the trees in the pool room, if you can manage it.”

I respond “Let me try.” A few moments later a couple pieces of fruit come floating in to the galley, with Ladon, Tiamat ,Xanthos, and Ogrifina all following the fruit they all stop when they see it set on the table in front of Katherine. Tiamat says “Katherine did you do that?”

before Katherine can respond Valesz says “no I did it.”

Tiamat replies with a look of surprise on her face “Really?” everyone at the table begins laughing.

Tiamat says “Whats so funny?”

Valesz replies “The look on your face, and Paul is responsible for the fruit.”

Xanthos says “I didn't know that humans were telekinetic .”

I respond “As far as any of us know I'm the only one with the powers that I have.”

Xanthos says “Powers? You mean that you have more than one mental ability?”

I respond telepathically “Yes.” Xanthos says “I heard that but your mouth did not move. So your also telepathic? Anything else?”

I respond “I don't know yet I'm just starting to learn to use these powers” Then I bring the salad over and put the steaks on the grill and add the seasoning. Then I flip Valesz's steak and season the other side. Then I bring the empty plates to the table, I return my attention to the steaks I flip my steak, and bring Valesz's steak towards her plate but it don't quite make it she bites it in mid air. Then I bring my steak to my plate.

Celer says “You need to take it easy on the mental abilities remember tonight is going to be difficult you need to save your strength.”

I respond “But this is effortless nothing like when I healed myself.”

Celer says “Let me link with you while you perform some telekinetic abilities.”

I reply “Any time you are ready.” I can feel Celer in my thoughts.

I say “Everyone please place your paws or hooves on the table.” They do as I ask. Then the table lifts about 3 cm off the floor, I think to myself this is too easy then I lift everyone at the table and the table about 1m off the floor.

Celer says “I can sense that you are barely using your abilities. Such power for any individual is unheard of, since you seem to possess such power I want you to reverse the link and go back into my thoughts about 200 years before your 100th generation grandmother, that's when I learned to teleport.”

I start digging through Celer's thoughts. It it much easier this time I get right to the thoughts of my 100th generation grandmother then I start working my way further back.

Alkippe ask Celer “Has he reversed the link yet ?”

Celer responds “Yes and with even more skill than before.”

Alkippe says “But he is still levitating us.” Celer replies “I know like I said he was barely using any mental power to do it in the first place. Even now he isn't using much with levitating us and mind linking with me.”

I say “All of this has become so effortless for me I would like to try something else while doing these two other task I want to try and mind link with everyone here at the same time.” Everyone agrees.

I begin with Valesz since she is the closest to me she is thinking about the first time we met, I say “Are you trying to make this hard for me love? Thinking about the first time we met...” I continue on to Katherine she is also thinking about the first time we met more specifically the moment when she left me with Valesz and winked at me oh she wanted me something fierce...ahh there is what Celer wanted me to find images with him out in an open field getting ready to teleport for the first time the unicorn talking to him is warning him not to try and go far the first few times, explaining that there have been a few accidents where the students had teleported themselves into solid objects like trees and rock faces... now linking with Dinos she is remembering when I reintroduced them to Sigrun and Alkippe. Now I'm linking with Lakia she is thinking about the fight oh damn she gets seriously horny when fighting... Celer is now getting ready to try his first attempt at Teleportation... I'm now linking with Sigrun he is thinking about the time at the pool when Katherine was riding his cock like a fire pole.

Celer is now thinking about teleporting behind his instructor his thoughts are very focused and then in an instant he is standing exactly where he wanted. Now I'm linking with Alkippe she is thinking about the first time we met and the fact that I had helped Lakia when she got shot. Celer is now on the next day and the next teleportation. The instructor tells him to try and go a little further today and points to a hill top about 200m away. Celer begins focusing on being on the hill top and just as quickly as before he is there.

Celer says “After you see the next exercise you can release the link. I can sense that you are still not using much of your power even with all that you are doing. I wouldn't be surprised if you put you mind to it to destroy some of the Mantis ships just by thinking about it.”

I continue to the next session of teleportation. Celer is on a floating platform above a large lake there is another platform the instructor tells Celer that the platforms will begin moving and that he is to transport himself from one platform to the other while in motion.

Katherine is remembering impaling herself on Sigrun's cock at the pool. The sensations are quite different not the same as when a male enters a female.. Celer is now moving and concentrating on making his trip to the next platform, he disappears and then materializes right behind the other platform, and falls into the water. Celer tells me that attempt was the only time he has missed a target, and that if I wish I can now release the link or stay for the next session.

I reply “I will stay for the next session. So we continue through his memories the next day the instructor tells Celer to try again and to try and project himself just in front of the moving platform. The platforms are moving about 85 kph. Celer begins to concentrate and tries again and this time is successful. Celer tells me to break the link now. I release his link then set everyone down then release the individual links that I had created.

Alkippe says “What you just did wasn't that different from the link that we intend to do later. How do you feel after doing all of that at the same time?”

I respond “I feel fine. I have a question though. There were several that were thinking about sexual encounters do you normally think of things like that on a regular basis or were you doing it for my benefit.”

Valesz responds “When you first tried to communicate with Dinos telepathically she chose a sexual memory so it would be easier for you because it raises strong emotions. That is why I did it.”

I say “Enough of this for now I'm ready for a dip in the pool, everyone else ready?

Valesz replies “let's go” I take her hand and we lead the way...

When we get to the pool I drop the sword on the deck and I am the first to dive in , I have about a 2 meter head start on Valesz, she dives in right behind me. By the time I get to the other side of the pool she has about a 1 meter lead on me when I surface.

I say “Damn you''re fast in the water.”

She replies “Thank you, I was always a good swimmer that is one of the reasons that I made sure that we had a pool on the ship. I enjoy it so much I insisted that my father get one installed on the Lamri. We argued about it for months but I saved the money to get it done and he finally agreed that I could have it. After it was installed he saw that everyone was enjoying so much he actually thanked me for making him do it. I will never forget that day it was so rare that he showed me any real attention. Until the day after the party at Zot's anyway now he and I have a much better understanding and I have you to thank for it Paul.” she wraps her arms around me and gives me a big kiss.

I reply “ But I have so much more to thank you for my love, bringing me on the ship, becoming my mate, introducing me to the unicorn, the dragon sword and that's just to name a few I can keep going...”

Celer says “With your abilities you can be much faster, but perhaps your not ready for that just yet, I need to stop pushing you. You are expanding your mind too quickly, the last thing I want is for you to do something that your not ready for. An example would be if you were to try to teleport right now you just might end up floating in space and that is something that none of us wants..”

Dinos says “Perhaps we should wait for a day or two so that you can take some time to focus on the abilities that you know you have.” Celer says “Thats a good idea , at least until we get to Vivus just work on the abilities that you know that you have and can work with.”

I respond “ I can wait to work on other aspects of my development, for now we can just enjoy each others company.

Then Talzon and Drake walk into the pool room. Valesz says “Is something wrong?”

Talzon responds “No captain it's just shift change, and Snowy wanted some command time, so I told her that I would go relax for a few hours and she could get some experience in the chair.”

Valesz replies “Very well, why don't both of you come over here and join us?”

Talzon and Drake both dive in at the same time I watch how they gracefully sway their bodies through the water the way the light dances on their scales as they swim across the pool, drake with his mirror like black scales looks like he is moving in perfect unison as the light moves in waves along his sleek body, and Talzon almost looks like he is on fire with the light caressing his bright red scales. They emerge from the water in front of Valesz and myself.

I look to Valesz and tell her how I watched them swim towards us and how graceful it looked to me. Talzon says “I wish I could have seen that myself.”

I reply “You can.”

Talzon replies how it is impossible for me to see myself swimming?”

I respond “No it's not, drake would you like to see as well?, and while I'm at it anyone else miss it?”

Drake responds quickly “Yes I would love to.” everyone but Valesz also says “Yes”

I say “Gather around me.” and everyone swims to make a circle around me. Then I say “Your not going to see this through dragon eyes you are going to see it as I did. So it may come as a bit of a shock to you.” Drake and Talzon both say “We are ready.” so I begin linking with all the minds in the room and project the memory of the two dragon swimming through the water.

Then I ask Valesz “were you watching them as intently as I was?”

She replies “yes I was.”

“Then may I see it through your eyes?”

She replies “Of course.” and she brings up her memory of the event and I broadcast it as I am getting it. As soon as Valesz finishes her view of the memory I break the link.

Celer says “Very nicely done Paul a perfect transference.”

Talzon how the hell did you do that? As amazing as it was to watch Drake and myself swim, yes I agree it was graceful but I would still like to know how you did that.”

I reply “Just very recently I have learned that I am developing mental abilities and this is just one of them. I have a feeling that I still have a few more to surface before its all done.”

“Enough of all of that we are here to relax and enjoy the company.”

I turn to Drake and say “You know Drake I never got a chance to really thank you for getting the ring ready for the fight.” Drake replies “ what you just gave me was plenty thanks enough the chance to see through human eyes, and to see how graceful I look swimming, a very rare opportunity thank you.”

I say “Your quite welcome.” then I dive into the water passing Drake as I pass him I take hold of his tail and pull him backwards into the water. He quickly pulls away from me and turns to give chase, and I take off swimming as fast as I can I reach the other end of the pool and surface turn around expecting that Drake is about to push me back under the water only to find that he is only half way across the pool.

Celer says “ I thought that you were not going to try any new abilities for a couple of days.” I respond “I wasn't trying to it just happened.” Just then Drake gets to me, grabs my legs and pulls me under. While he is holding me underwater I get a sudden lustful feeling coming over me. I quickly realize that it is Drake that I'm getting it from.

I reach down and take hold of his sheath, he jumps in surprise then realizes that I am not intending him any harm and begins to relax and returns the favor and takes hold of my growing cock he re-positions himself in the water and quickly takes my member into his mouth, but by now I'm really needing some air I tap him on the shoulder he looks at me and I point up he understands that I need to surface and releases me. (yes I could have told him telepathically but the last thing I wanted to do was to surprise him and with a mouth full of razor sharp teeth and my cock well you get the idea) I quickly surface and get out of the pool and lay on the deck a few feet away from the pool, Drake has a look of disappointment on his face I hold up a hand with my index finger motioning him to come up on the deck. A slight smile creeps across his face and with a single motion he leaps out of the water and joins me on the deck.

His cock slightly poking out of its captive sheath I reach up and take hold of his growing member and he quickly becomes hard as I continue to stoke him Drake says “I have never been with a male before much less a human, but there is just something about you.”

I respond “Just take your time and enjoy what we have to offer each other, besides until just a few of days ago I had not been with a male or female either so this is still new to me too. ” and with that said I lean over and take his cock into my mouth and begin working up and down on him. He moans in pleasure as I work my way down his 18cm shaft then I get on all fours and offer myself to him.

Drake says “Are you sure?, I don't want to hurt you.”

I respond “Don't worry you won't, just be mind full of those claws.”
