** The Dreadnought Trilogy Pt. 3**

One single, open threshold stood between a small group of pirates, a gigantic walking machine, and two random companions inside an ammo dump. Pyra Halstark brushed her shortish, red hair to the side of her blue-furred face, gazing at the beautiful display of very special shotgun shells lined in a cardboard box. Such a find was like tripping over the Holy Grail on your way to the gas station, it just never happened. Her hopes and dreams came true in just a few seconds when Riggs pushed her into that room.

"You ready, Riggs?" Pyra loaded up two shotgun shells, whose casings were marked with black tiger stripes over a red shell. "They're not going to wait out there for long." She closed her Super Shotgun, one that was around three feet long, and six inches wide. Even with such a long barrel, it still kicked like a mule and the buck shots spread over a little more than a yard.

"Yeah." He picked up a satchel of grenades and tossed her a few, which she happily accepted, and both of them hurried to the left side of the door. They would have gone on opposite sides, but to cross that threshold with a light shining into it was suicide. There's no telling how many snipers they had posted.

"Alright! You have thirty seconds before we smash that place into rubble!" The lead pirate of their little group shouted, obviously feeling high and mighty with some six or seven guns backing him up.

"I'll create a distraction, you give us some cover while we make our way to the front of the Jabbawock." She said, not even knowing how close they were to the bridge of this infernal Dreadnought. The thing was made to hold an entire colony of people, and for some stupid reason, the idiots who bought it were using it to transport rare, and dangerous creatures. So far, she'd already killed around thirty of the damn things, and most of the mercenaries that came with her were already dead because of them. Still, on the bright side, that meant that the pirates were getting knocked off as well.

Pyra pulled out one of her Flag grenades, and set it to white. Then she bounced it on the ground at an angle, directly in front of the opening. It rebounded straight out into the main hall.

"Grenade!!" One of them shouted right before it burst into a brilliant show of light. The hyper sonic blast that it emitted knocked the gigantic Juggernaut machine back a few paces, and threw several of them every which way. Before they could even get up, three of them were gunned down by Riggs, who showered them with bullets from his black metal B-99 assault rifle.

Pyra could only hope that the one piloting the Juggernaut had been blinded by the grenade as well, but she wasn't taking any chances. It was still starting to move, and she followed closely behind Riggs, who was strategically pinning them down before they had a chance to recover. She took aim, her pack now full of righteously legendary shells, and her gun full of two that she had no idea the effect they would have, but she wanted to see it.

She pulled the trigger, and her shotgun had no kick back at all. It emitted an instantaneous beam of red light, and that light passed straight through the enormous, walking machine, destroying its large, center light. Its egg-like shape stood still, its arms froze into place and its legs were now rooted to the ground. Pyra kept an eye on where she was going, but she also felt more and more curious as she saw all kinds of little red lights shine as they passed all through the machine's body from every direction there was even a slight opening.

Soon, there came a heat in the center of the machine, and it began to expand. Luckily, they passed around the corner as the machine burst. Metal parts, shrapnel flew everywhere, followed swiftly by one big explosion that rocked the entire craft.

"Dear lord! What kind of firepower did you pick up?" Riggs asked her, looking back at her. Pyra obviously wasn't listening, he could almost plainly see the hearts popping up all around her as she cuddled her shotgun with a warm smile on her face. After a moment, though, she opted to open the shotgun as they ran, the empty shell popping out, and her pulling out the other special with her thumb and forefinger. She put in her special Blue Dissolver, and a lime green shell instead. She knew that she could count on the blue one, and once again found herself curious as to what the green shell did.

The bridge was close, and the dead carcasses of both pirate and beast lay strewn about the hall. Their quantities were growing, but at the same time, they were stacked on the side. Someone had cleaned up rather well, and the place didn't smell so bad.

"So, your mission is to kill the pirate captain?" Riggs asked, at that point, they were walking at a brisk pace, keeping their weapons at the ready position.

"Yeah, whoever it is, I just need to kill him and confirm it. Then I can get a new fridge." Pyra kept her eyes scanning the area around them. Riggs, once again, found himself furrowing his brow and wondering if she was kidding or not.

"Would you mind giving me a ride?" He asked, and one of the doors caught his eye.

"Wouldn't mind. Where are you headed?" She said, and looked at the door marked "Security Room."

"I don't care, so long as there's a city, and I can get a damn job." He input the code on the panel to the side of the door, it opened in an instant. She kept to the side of the door, watching their asses. Both of their eyes widened. Pyra heard the sound of rustling weaponry, smelled very potent gun oil, and more than one submachine gun getting charged. Riggs saw five pirates sitting around a table, all of their helmets were back on with a push of a button. He stared down the barrel of all of their weapons.

"Where's the other one?" One of the pirates asked in a very demanding tone. He was answered as she rounded the corner and fired her shotgun, and blue, glowing spray shredded the room. Three of them were caught in the spray, and one of their upper torso dissolved, while the other two dissolved from their shoulders to their necks. All three of them fell, and the other two froze.

Riggs dashed into the room, grabbing the first one's gun and holding it up as he plowed his fist straight into the pirate's helmet. The helmet shattered in the front, as did his t-zone. Pyra was not merciful either, she came in directly behind Riggs and spun around, kicking the gun from the next man's hand. She jumped up, grabbing onto the ceiling light, and slammed his head between her armored knees. The man fell, quite unconscious.

"Okay..." Riggs said, somewhat out of breath from such a tense moment. He didn't like having guns pointed at his face, nor did he like shotguns going off right beside his ear. He dug his finger into his bear ear and rung it around a few times before he finally sat down beside a safe. "Now then, I'm fairly certain they hacked into the security door, however, this safe here is not so easily done. Even with the best hackers, it takes hours upon hours. Judging by how they were lounging, I'd say they'd taken their sweet time on the lunch breaks." He said, starting to input code after code.

"Oh, is this where you have the 4000 brass?" She asked, looking over his shoulder.

"That's right. I am an Ursana of my word. You've more than lived up to your end of the deal. I'm alive, for one thing." He grinned up at her before returning to input codes. Then he held up his hand toward her. "Brass card."

She reached into her side pocket of her utility belt and pulled out a red card with her info on it. He took it and put it into a card slot on the safe. The number 4356 went down to zero, and he handed it back to her. "And there you go."

She smiled at him. Quite honestly, she forgot about his promise of four thousand brass, and would have probably just let him keep it. Then came a series of sounds that made both of their hearts drop into their stomachs. There were ten pirates outside the door, all of them with charged weapons. Pyra weighed her options, she would have to turn around fast and pull the trigger. Then she would have to hope that the green shell was something that could take all of them out at once, which it possibly could, but was it worth it?

In the end, Pyra dropped her shotgun and put her hands on her head. Riggs did the same.


For obvious reasons, they were rough with them. The pirates cuffed them, and prodded them, but for some reason, they did not kill them, nor did they molest them. After a brief period of containment, they were let out of their cells, and led down a hallway, cuffed behind their backs with only their under armor on. The weapons were all that was on Pyra's mind at the moment. That shotgun was a gift, and it was one of the most precious things in her entire life.

Riggs knew this hallway better than anything in the ship. It was the hallway from the main section of the ship to the bridge. He had many occasions where he had to organize a security force along the hallway to protect a VIP.

Both of them were calculating all kinds of escape plans through their heads, but in the end, they couldn't see the two of them making it out alive. The pirates put six armed guards on them, and they were trained very well, it seemed. Just by the way they moved, Pyra knew that they could handle themselves in a fight, armed or not.

This was probably the brightest part of the ship they had seen since this whole mess started. Almost all of the lights worked, and they didn't see one single animal carcass or otherwise anywhere in the hall. It was a straight, black tiled, white-walled hallway, and they were finally reaching the end.

"So, why exactly are we being brought here?" Pyra asked, looking over at the fully armored pirate guard with his assault rifle trained on her, unwavering in his stance.

"I can only imagine the boss would like to thank you, personally, for all of the trouble that you caused us. I can't imagine what our Captain has in store for you. Now, quiet, we're here." He turned his head to look forward, only taking his gun off of her to walk forward to the panel beside the main door. He input the code, and the buttons blinked twice. The main doors began to slide open, and the two were given a small nudge to walk forward.

There were seven main control panels in the very front of the ship, armored pirates sat at all of them. There were eight more, four on each side, all of them with screens reading coordinates, numbers of all sorts, and radars working vigorously. In the middle of it all, there were two small staircases that led up toward the exit, to a platform. They walked onto the platform, and there was one single chair, an especially large chair that oversaw all of it. There sat a suit of power armor, and not a small one. The helmet was spiked at the top, as if it was a crown, and the helmet had two very vicious looking, red glowing eyes on it. The suit was mostly black, the spikes over the torso stood straight up, the middle ones on the torso were lined with shining steel.

The Captain sat, gazing at the two of them, the gauntlet that rested on the chair's arm rose for one moment simply to wave once. The pirates around them immediately did an about face, and began walking away.

"Leave us." The Captain said with a very low voice, and loud auditory microphone on the armor. All of them began to set all systems to auto, and stood up, exiting single file. As they did, the power suit stood up from the chair, standing a good two feet taller than Riggs. The Ursana tried to hold back a grimace as the Captain leaned forward, gazing at him straight in the face with those two burning red eyes.

"So, the two of you have killed a good sixteen of my men by yourselves. The other mercenaries that boarded the ship were dispatched almost immediately after they entered, but this little Wulfos would not go down so easily. I am very impressed." The power suit walked around Riggs, to gaze down at Pyra, who stared forward, not even giving the Captain the satisfaction of looking upward.

"Why haven't you killed us already?" Riggs asked, seeming to surprise their captor, who looked back over at him with a stance that showed it even through the immense amount of armor. "You already have all of our stuff, and all of our money. So why not just shoot us out an airlock or something?"

"Why in the stars would I ever do something like that?" The Captain said, and suddenly, Riggs heard something metal fall to the ground. He turned around and saw that Pyra's cuffs were on the floor. He thought that she had picked the lock by some miracle, but then the Captain undid his cuffs as well. "How could I ever do that to my lovely moon and stars?" Pyra felt the armored hand go up to her wolf-like chin.

Her expression became dumbfounded, her eyes widening to their very max.

"Saphyr?!" Pyra said, and the Captain began to giggle uncontrollably, like a low-toned, giddy little school girl. Her armor began to fold over her, and her true form came as that of a purple cat, or Nekphoid. Her pointed ears were very long, her long hair was very dark blue, and her eyes were a piercing yellow. She was no taller than Pyra, but her boobs were twice the size. As soon as her head was completely uncovered, she met the blue wolf woman in a deep, passionate kiss on the lips. Saphyr's fingers ran through Pyra's bright red hair, and their boobs mashed as Saphyr rubbed them together.

Pyra tentatively broke the kiss, her cheeks were bright red, and she was suddenly out of breath.

"Saphyr, you fucking whore, what's going on? Oh my God!" She embraced the cat-like woman, and they cuddled for a moment. Riggs, meanwhile, stood over to the side, his eyes were wide, and his mouth was open as if he wanted to ask something. It's just that no question seemed profound enough.

"Oh, Pyra. It's such a long, and terrible tale. I just don't know where to start. All I know is that I've missed you. I missed you so much." Saphyr's tears began to swell in her eyes, and she kissed Pyra on the lips again, holding her tight. Soon enough, the kiss turned into their tongues licking one anothers, and their hands began to squeeze on their asses.

"God, I missed these huge tits." Pyra whispered as she unzipped her black form-fitting under armor, and exposed two massive, purple breasts with huge, pink areolas covering the front of them. She latched onto the cat's nipples and began sucking for dear life, causing Saphyr's breath to hasten. The purple cat held onto the back of Pyra's head and drew her closer, making her boob flatten a little as she applied pressure.

Her bright, yellow eyes turned to Riggs, and they widened as she saw what he was packing. He obviously was enjoying the show, as his cock was already almost to his abs.

"Holy fuck, Pyra." She whispered to her as she looked down at her nibbling on her nips. "Where the fuck did you find this guy?" She licked her lips.

"Your men had him in jail." She said for the brief moment that her teeth stopped sliding on her massive boobs.

"I swear I'm going to kill them. Get your ass over here, now." She demanded, motioning him with one finger, and he complied. It was no time at all that they had his bobbing cock uncovered. The two of them started slobbering all over the shaft from head to base. When he was stiff like an ironing board, Saphyr gazed at him with her seductive, enthralling eyes and shoved a great deal of it in her mouth, going all the way down to the back of her throat. She attempted to get him into her esophagus, but it was no use, he was like a tree trunk. She slid him out with a gagging sound. Slobber ran down her chin along with precum that she tried to lick back up.

"Damn!" She hissed, and jerked him with one hand, while the other wiped the remainder off her chin. "This is going to be amaz--"

She was interrupted by Pyra, who rose up his member, and started licking his balls and sucking on the bottom of one of them.

"What do you think you're doing? You bitch!" She snapped at Pyra, and Riggs almost thought she was being serious until she started sucking on the other nut. His hot rod twitched uncontrollably as they began to slather his manhood with copious amounts of saliva, meeting at the end of the head with a another erotic, wet kiss. They almost tore off one another's clothes, giving each other a good licking all over.

Saphyr made sure to get her stomach, all over Pyra's tits, and her neck. They wrapped around one another, and entwined their legs tight. They joined their outer labias together on the ground, and began rubbing them together. Their wetness rubbed off on one another, and they began to moan together.

Pyra rolled Saphyr onto the ground under her, and with a devilish grin, she began to grind on her harder, at a better angle. The purple cat woman's moans began to grow louder, and much faster. That was when both of them felt their lower regions raise up into the air with Rigg's powerful arms holding them up. He shoved his cock between their joined sexes, and started to rub his gigantic monster penis on both of their steaming hot quims at the same time.

"Oh, God! Riggs please! Fuck me!" Pyra said, looking at him with those pleading eyes.

"What?! I haven't been fucked in three months! Give me that fucking monster or I'll kill you both!" Saphyr shouted at both of them. This raised both of Pyra's eyebrows at the Nekphoid, but she looked at Riggs and motioned her nod toward her.

There was a loud, wet squish as he plunged into her on the bottom of their stacked pussies. Saphyr's moans went high in the octave as he started to piston his meat sword deep into her sheathe. He stretched her, it was obvious that she was speaking the truth when she claimed how long it had been since she had a good plowing, because Pyra had seen her take a good sized cock with a lot more grace. This time, though, the cat was barely keeping it together at all. She was already building up, as displayed by the building volume of her moans.

Pyra did not make this any easier as she latched her lips onto her friend's sizeable tit, starting to suckle with gusto as her pink little pussy was smashed in over and over again. She pulled Pyra's hair hard and clenched her thighs tight as she gasped once. Her eyes shook as she reached such a high peak in her orgasm. Her moans turned to little screams as the red bear didn't let up even a little. However, he suddenly stopped and drove his throbbing hard dick inside Pyra, and began fucking her just as hard as when he let off of Saphyr. The girls locked lips hard, and started to kiss uncontrollably as Pyra moaned into her mouth, muffled and desperate for more.

Their breasts rubbed together, and their tongues did too. And it wasn't long before Pyra came, and came hard! Her toes curled up, and she squeezed her face into Saphyr's neck. Riggs finally pulled out of her after just a few more pumps. He pushed his cock directly between them, and shot all over them from below. Their tits were covered, as were the bottoms of their chins, and their stomachs.

Pyra rolled off of her, and laid beside her as Riggs sat on the ground near them. All of them caught their breath, and began to clean up a bit.

"So, I take it you know each other?" Riggs asked, and ran the towel over his slowly softening cock that hung low.

"Uhhh, yeah. We're from the same shithole town." Saphyr said as she grimaced at the matted cum in her otherwise beautifully groomed fur. "A shithole town on an even shittier planet, in the shittiest sector of space. We both tried to join the Galactic Fleet and were both denied after we spent six months in combat training." Her expression and tone were both especially sarcastic in their joyful visage.

"Yeah, they pretty much told us that we're 'not cut out for this life' or another good one I heard was 'wouldn't you be happier doing something else?' Pretty much meaning that her tits were too big and the bitches in our squadron were jealous because all of the guys wanted to bang us instead. So I said fuck it, and I became a mercenary." Pyra opened up her Super Shotgun she saw behind the Captain's chair.

"And I became a merchant, and eventually got enough money to run shit here on this pirate crew."

"Uh, actually, that was going to be my next question." Pyra set two new shells and flipped the shotgun closed. "What the fuck are you doing on this vessel?"

"Well, it's a long story. The short of it is that either score something huge, or get mutiny. I've been running this shit crew for two years after I was first mate for three days. After some asswipe 'accidentally' released all of the animals in the cargo, well, you saw the results of that. So where's your ship?" Saphyr asked as she pressed a button on her wrist band and activated her armor. She grew up to her giant size once again.

"What, are you asking for a ride?" Pyra asked as she passed Riggs his rifle, which he accepted with a nod.

"Uh, no, I'm telling you either you get me off of this Dreadnought or I'm going to be killed by my remaining crewmembers, who are probably waiting for me with guns in hand." Pyra found it a little comical that the deep tone of the armor was mixed with Saphyr's ditzy voice.

Riggs walked over to the security console, and pressed in just a few buttons to bring up the security cameras near the cockpit. All of their eyes widened to see that she was, in fact, correct.

"Ah, that bastard, Manniz." Saphyr said as her power suit leaned in closer, and her red eyes glowed harder. There was a Wulfos male standing outside of the door, waiting with all of the other pirates. They waited in small groups, spread out in a strategic stance to keep from getting blown up all at once. There were not a great deal of them left after everything that happened. However, there were still around a hundred, and that was still a problem.

"Let me guess. He's your first mate." Riggs said, switching through more cameras to get a clear route.

"Uh yeah, but only in the sense that he's my second in command. Like I said, it's been months since I had a good lay. Thanks for that, by the way." She said, and once again, the deeper tone made it sound weird. Both Riggs and Pyra looked at one another, nodding.

"Alright, so, what's the plan?" Saphyr asked, and looked at the main exit.


A gigantic, red beam blasted through the doors, blaring through five of the pirates that were unfortunate enough to stand in its way. After that, with all of the pirates stunned momentarily. There came a barrage of bullets from both Riggs's assault rifle, and both of Saphyr's power armor's hands, which were now gatling guns.

In such a tight corridor, it was very difficult for the pirates to avoid gunfire.

"For fuck's sake! Give out fire!!!" Manniz shouted from the ranks, his reddish fur accenting his blood-red eyes as he held up his small missile launcher he mounted on his shoulder. Finally, it was time to test out the light green shell. Pyra pulled first as the two stood across from one another, and Manniz pulled his trigger.

All of the bullets flying toward them, and all of the bullets her counterparts fired, all of them stopped in midair. The green ball of energy blasted from the shotgun, and its many electric limbs scattered out from it, it started to collect all of the metal as it drew closer and closer to the pirates. It collected pirates with their metal armor around it, and it even collected Manniz's missile as its rocket motor kept going. However, as it came at Manniz himself, the rocket motor stopped.

The explosion blasted through the hallway, both Riggs and Pyra jumped out of the way of the blast, but Saphyr wasn't nearly fast enough to do such a thing. She stood in the middle of it with her arms raised in front of her. As the combustion finally ended, the power armor lowered its defensive stance and looked at its hands. All three of them looked down the hall to see that it was pretty much empty, save for the charred bodies covered in broken armor, and little licks of fire here and there.


Pyra's ship took off from the docking bay she started from. They took what they could and ran before anymore of the creatures could find them, and whatever remained of the pirates could find their own way out. Pyra crashed on her couch in her passenger bay, which was remodeled into a makeshift living room. It was a tiny living space, especially when there were three people crammed into it.

The cockpit had two seats, and took Saphyr no time to set the coordinates for their next planet. She got up and walked into the living room wearing only a t-shirt and panties, the latter of which showed off her purple furred asscheeks.

"Welp! Looks like I'm out of a job! I don't think I've ever been so happy to be unemployed." She said as she sat on the arm of the couch which held Pyra's limp body. Pyra mumbled something through the couch cushions in reply, but it wasn't very audible, and more than likely was jumbled nonsense anyway.

"How long until we get to the Directive Headquarters?" Riggs said, pulling a hot mug of water off of the very tiny entertainment center which held the flat screen TV set. He poured a chicken broth packet into it along with hard ramen and stirred with a fork.

"Oh, it'll be three whole days with you guys, living off of Pyra's last batch of rations! In the meantime you can entertain us by fucking our brains out! Doesn't that sound great?!"

There came a very loud, disdainful groan into the couch cushions at that point as Pyra let out a great sigh. After a moment, she let out another sigh, and then turned her head to face toward Riggs as he lied on the floor.

"I'm first."
