#91 of Counter Earth Chronicles: Fallen Empire

Last chapter:

While watching the Lost City's first annual talent show, Alex experienced another one of his alternate reality/alternate life thingies. This one involving the Alien Hunters and Hue and Cassia Manassas. In that reality he witnessed the group try to find a suitable planet to settle down on and rebuild their lives. Despite being an alternate reality, it gave our hero comfort that the Milo Silver and Panda Lee Ling of the present reality were alive and most likely experiencing the same thing....


Counter Earth Chronicles - Fallen Empire

Chapter 91: Line Of Defense

Day 198 (10:06 PM Lady Ursa's chambers.)

*GRRRR*

"That is one perturbed looking bear you have there Alex." My lioness said as we enter my warrior bear's bedroom and attempted to settle in for the night.

*GLARE*

"Mistress is something wrong?" I said as the brown ursine stared right through me.

"Uh oh, that was the glare, I haven't seen that for some time little cutie, I think she is quite cross." Shakara said, her tone a warning.

"Is it some type of morning sickness?"

"It is evening Alex." Shakara said correcting me.

"Then what could it be?" I said wondering out loud.

"Could it possibly be what happened at the talent show?" Ms. Kubari asked as she watched my reaction.

"You didn't tell her did you?" I said staring at my lioness who gave me that broad feline grin of hers. "You did- blabbermouth!"

"She didn't have to pet, I watched you during my performance when you were supposed to be watching me." My pregnant bear said kneeling.

I had been made. So I did the only thing I could possibly do at that point....

"I am sorry mistress. Please don't hate me." I said groveling.

"You experienced another of your alternate reality visions didn't you?" She said crossing her arms looking at me.

I nodded.

"Well it had better been a good one."

And so for the next twenty minutes, I told my bear in detail what had caused me to miss most, if not all of the lost city's first talent show....

"You see, I don't have any control over it- like a shimmer, it comes and goes mistress."

"Hmm... that kissing massage that the five ursines performed on Panda Lee. I would like to experience that too. Consider it your penance."

I traded glances with the red eyed lioness as my bear made herself comfortable lying down on her side.

"Looks like you have a client waiting little cutie. I think she might forgive you if you get her off."

And so I started pleasing my client with short gentle kisses on her cheeks, mouth and neck before proceeding downward to her chest, still flat stomach which I kissed numerous times before moving on to her paws, legs, foot paws, her armpits and finally her groin where I kissed her vulva.

*MOAN*

The female ursine started trembling. I spread her legs apart as I continued her massage as the she beast continued to moan before....

"RRRAAAHHH!!!!" She shouted as she came.

(Mission accomplished.)

"I am sorry my love. Am I forgiven?"

*Glare*

"Again!" She ordered me.

And so I started kissing her groin all over again. This time making my way toward her vaginal opening. My perfect person started trembling again, moaning and groaning again as she approached her peak.

"RRRGGGHHH!!!!" She yelled as she came, her orgasm was more fierce this time.

"Very good pet. Now again." She mumbled.

"Again?!"

For my third time I focused in on her clitoris alternatively kissing and licking one of her most erogenous areas. It didn't take my fierce ursine warrior long to once again reach her peak.

"GRROOOARRR!!!!" She shouted mashing my face to her crotch.

(I think the whole neighborhood heard that one, if not the entire city.)

"Mmmmrrph?" I mumbled from within her most intimate place. Her scent was quite erotic.

"You are forgiven." My warrior bear said.

"Thanks." I said rising from her groin.

"Looks like someone is pointing." The dark tan lioness said.

"I guess I am." I said looking down at my additional limb.

"What are you going to do with that?" The she feline asked.

"I don't know, do you have any ideas?" I said smirking.

*WHOMPH*

Before I knew it I was reclining on my bear. My head resting on her chest and my butt on her crotch. Together we watched as the horny lioness docked her opening with my pointed spear.

*HNNG* I moaned.

(It doesn't get any better than this!)

"Something wrong little cutie?"

"No, I am just taking this all in- you know, savoring it. My brown bear's plump chest, her flat stomach- for now anyways. The beautiful shape of your ass, your jiggly breasts, soft tan fur, and the warmth of your sex." I said running my hand down her backside.

"My sex is in need something else." My lioness said kissing me on my forehead.

"What is that?"

"Someone to paint it." She said raising and lowering herself down and then up and then down on me. "Know anyone who is UP to the task?"

By then as you guessed it, I was feeling that familiar tickle make its way from my nether regions to my genitals and then....

*NGHFF!!!* I moaned.

"It looks like someone is very close." My lioness said observing the dazed look I was giving her.

I stopped her from moving up and down my shaft and pulled her close as I shuddered painting her sex and her cub tunnel.

"Oh my so, so, so, so much!!!" She shouted cumming as well.

"Wait, what happened to OAH!!! MY WARM HAPPY?!" Lady Ursa teased.

"Someone is still a little grouchy." My devious person said coming down from her high.

"No, just anxiously waiting for my turn." The bear said to the lioness.

After Shakara released me, I turned my attention to my other female. I kissed her deeply and passionately on her lips as my boy bits started getting excited once again.

My fierce ursine warrior allowed me to enter her inter most depths. She held me close as I made love to her and as I once again experienced the best part of being a male. If you know what I mean.

The three of us fell asleep afterwards.

Day 199 (6:20 AM Central Building showers)

"Oh this is so divine!!" I said placing both of my hands on the shower stall wall and spread my legs wide like I was criminal that had been captured by the knight core.

"Little cutie I haven't even started yet." My lioness commented as she placed her paws on my shoulders and started lathering them and my back with soap foam slowly making her way downward.

"It still feels good none the less Shakara." I cooed as she reached my bottom. The horny lioness then proceeded to my front soaping and lathering everything there and taking considerable time at my privates.

"Shakara, do you have to frisk him like he is a rebel?! Besides I think his genitals are significantly clean." Lady Ursa commented.

"That is the best part!! Besides big cutie we did give our favorite male quite a workout last night if you know what I mean." The dark tan lioness said winking at my perfect person.

"And the two of you make this post apocalyptic world a near paradise." I said as some fuzzy paws kneaded my scrotum.

"Ahem, well, I suppose- we hadn't seen him or his 'boys' in a couple of days." The bear said as she started lathering the horny lioness.

"Oh yeah right there! That's spot!!! YES!!!" The lioness responded as Lady Ursa ran her paws down Shakara's breasts and stomach. "I don't know if I say it enough but I love you my big and little cuties!"

"We love you too Shakara." Lady Ursa said blushing underneath her fur.

(Shakara really is the Sorren of our little triad.)

"So what is on the schedule for today big cutie?" Shakara said to the pregnant brown bear as she finished lathering her.

"Rhinox and Barq are reviewing the lost city's defenses." Lady Ursa said turning around to let Shakara and I work on her.

"I thought they were going to look at the red prototype to see if it can be made operational again." I said as I started soaping my fierce ursine warrior's butt and that hard to reach spot just underneath her tail. "There maybe some components that can still be salvaged."

"That too AH pet." My bear said as the lioness moved from her breasts to her crotch.

"What about you little cutie?" Shakara asked.

"Shira wants to follow me on my rounds; she is still trying to decide if she wants to become part of this community or not."

"The way she stormed out of the meeting the other day, I would have said that was a not." The dark tan lioness said.

"What about you Shakra?" Lady Ursa asked.

"Busy day at the infirmary- I am treating several of the warriors who injured during sparring and if I have any free time, I am going to be working on customizing my spear tips."

"Hey you three going to be long?" A familiar teen and his werewolf said approaching our shower stall.

"Well if it isn't our favorite builder and honorary beasital." I said to the pair.

"...morning..."

"I am still amazed at how all three of you can fit inside there." Mr. Collins responded.

"Yeah it is amazing Corey." Ms. Kubari responded. "What's up?"

"During our performance last night, I came up with an idea on how to add running water to the showers instead of the collection tubs we have now." The black haired teen said. "I think it was just after I fired those lit arrows."

"Wait, you had flaming arrows during your act?!" I said.

"...yes..." The former lab creature responded.

"Rumble caught each and every one of them little cutie." Shakara said.

"He is very swift and agile." Lady Ursa said piling on.

"I think it was one of the best performances of the evening. You might have seen it, if you hadn't been asleep." The black haired teen said staring at me.

(I feel so small right now.)

Mr. Collins and Rumble left me and my females to finish bathing- although I think both took second and third looks as they were leaving. Perhaps Corey had never seen Lady Ursa or Shakara naked or he just wanted to see who was hotter my lioness or my bear.

The three of us finished bathing, dried off and then had breakfast in the eating place before going our separate ways. Shakara went to the Infirmary. Lady Ursa had her meetings with Lady Barq and Commander Rhinox and I started my rounds but not before stopping off at Corbin's house.

"Come in it's open." My little brother said.

"Morning Corbin is Shira around.... Um, I guess she is..."

I found the mongoose boy and yeti standing at the kitchen table completely nude. The saber-tooth tiger was standing off to their right.

"Ah why are you two not wearing anything?!" I stammered at seeing the mongoose boy and yeti boy with everything hanging out.

"Morning Alex." Yogi said.

"Morning big brother."

"Morning Alex." Shira said too casually.

"I am sorry Shira, Corbin and Yogi do not normally behave like this- I mean they aren't exhibitionists."

"It is not like that, these two have been the perfect hosts. I was just returning the favor."

"How is that now?" I asked surprised.

"Their undergarments are completely worn through and they don't have any in reserve."

"That is a problem the whole colony is facing Shira."

"Shira was showing us how her colony dealt with clothing issues." The manufactured monster said.

"Please don't say you guys ran around naked?" I stammered.

"Actually no. We figured out an alternative. You take a simple cloth you use for bathing like this one, drape it over the shoulder, next bring the cloth under the legs and wrap it around the waist, twist and knot it off to the side, then fold it like so." She said demonstrating on the little mongoose boy. "There you have it something to cover and protect your privates."

"Wow." Corbin said as he felt the makeshift underwear.

"It is quite snug, but comfortable." Yogi said sliding on his.

"It is fundoshi. It can be made simply and easily." Shira said. "I can show you if you want Alex."

"Yeah, I would like that."

"So would Momma bear." Corbin Teased. "And even Shakara."

"Ahem, if you are ready Shira what would like to see today?"

"The bad." The tigress said waving to Corbin and Yogi as we left their house. The mongoose and yeti still admiring the undergarments Shira had made for them.

(The boys didn't realize that since that was the only undergarment they now owned, they would have to wash and dry it daily.)

"The bad Shira?" I asked as we stood on the stone street in front of Corbin and Dawn's house.

"Yes the bad- Ursa, Shakara, Una, Corbin and even Yogi have gone out of their way to show me the good things about this colony of yours. I would like to see the opposite now."

"Ok. I have some duties to perform, you can accompany if you like." I said adjusting my grappling hook to my arm.

As so the she cat followed me to the outskirts of the lost city to the holding house. The closest thing we have to a prison.

"Morning Gahri." I said to the crocodile with the blank expression who was stationed outside. "I am here to check up on our prisoner."

"Right this way medic." He said opening the door with his left paw while holding his spear with the right. Inside was my first appointment of the day.

"Well as I live and breathe it is the one who knocked me into next week." The human/tiger anarchist said as Shira and I walked through the front door.

"That was only after you sold out your friends, community and the rest of the colony Zhade." I said trying to control my anger.

"But it was for a good reason." He countered.

"That is debatable." I said approaching him. He was seated on a chair with his arms and wrists bound tightly.

"And who might this be?"

"A possible new member of our community she wanted to speak with you in person." I said to the human/tiger hybrid.

"Shira this is Zhade. Zhade this is Shira."

"Always nice to meet a fellow tiger."

"Despite your crimes, how are they treating you Zhade?" The she beast asked.

"I get two meals a day plus bathroom breaks." He said smiling. "Occasionally they will let Kenna in to bathe me."

"That is better than you deserve." I said approaching him. "Gently I ran Shakara's triangle over him.

"So what is the diagnosis medic?" He asked curiously.

"Consorting with the enemy, rejection of community, family and friends with a side of betrayal." I said as Shira looked him over. "Oh your overall health? You are healthy for now."

"That is good to know. What is the leadership going to do with me?"

"I don't know." I replied putting away the scanning tool.

"They haven't decided Zhade. If it were my decision it would be banishment." Shira said.

"For what it is worth, my heart was in the right place and Ruth Ann is with her beloved now."

"You thought with your heart but not your head Zhade! You let the needs of an individual override the needs of the group!"

"Alex." Shira said placing her paw on my shoulder trying to calm me down.

"This entity you speak of has it?"

"If you are asking if it has come for us yet. No, it seems to have forgotten us or is preoccupied."

"Or this colony is of a lower priority." The half human half tiger said as I gave him a dirty look."

"Shut up Zhade." I said closing the door behind me as Shira and I departed.

"So that is where the worst of the worst are kept?" The tigress asked me.

"Yeah, it is what we could come up with on a short notice. How did your colony deal with your baddies?"

"Shaming, embarrassment, reparations for the young, the pit for adults." Shira said to me.

"The pit?"

"A large hole rule breakers were throw down. They were forced to sit there and contemplate their transgressions until those who were wronged agreed they could rejoin the colony."

"That sounds cruel." I said as we started walking from the east end of the city to the north.

"Perhaps, but it was quite effective. So where to next?"

"I am going to check on another from our community who was deeply affected by what Zhade did." I said as we arrived at a stone house several blocks from the central building.

I gently knocked on the door.

"Come in." Was the response from its occupant.

"Morning Kenna, how are you feeling today?" I said peeking in.

"Sad Alex. I miss Ruth Ann. We have been friends for a long time. Her Bo and I." The hybrid responded.

"If it is any consolation she is safe and with the ONE she loves, just disconnected from everything else and everyone else and... her free will."

"And is serving another master." Shira added.

"Who is with you?" The half human/half rabbit asked.

"This is Shira."

"Oh you are the last member of that colony the knights found." Kenna said.

"Yes. How are you feeling?" The tigress asked as I entered to examine the despondent hybrid.

She was sitting at the table in the kitchen. It didn't take a genius to realize she had been crying. I opened up the medkit, and used Shakara's triangle to perform some quick scans.

"Results are normal. Kenna, Ruth Ann is gone, but trust me she would not want you moping around in her absence. I suggest joining Ms. Una's therapy group- you can socialize and make some more friends while talking about your loss."

"Or treat yourself, what about visiting Milton and Melinda for some personal grooming?" The saber-toothed tiger suggested.

"You know I would like that." The half human/half rabbit said. "Will you come with me?"

Shira and I looked at each other.

"Well the commander did say that everyone was supposed to pair up for safety and security." I said as Kenna rose from the kitchen table.

"So you are saying I need to probably find a roommate?"

"Yeah. As soon as possible." I said to the hybrid.

"Do you know anyone who is looking?" She asked looking at the female sabertooth tiger.

"I am staying with Corbin and Yogi." Shira said politely.

As morning turned into afternoon, we walked the few blocks from Ruth Ann and Kenna's house to Milton and Melinda's home. There was some type of commotion.

"What horrible service Celestine!"

"Agreed Augustin. What type of business are you running here?!"

"It is a grooming business Celestine, Augustine." Melinda said. "We pride ourselves by trying to cater to all types of clients whether they are human, beastial, hybrid or monster."

"Do you now?" Augustin said indignantly.

"I apologize but I never serviced a porcupine though." Milton's girlfriend said humbly.

"It is obvious! Look at my quills they are ruined!" Celestine protested. "Oh the incompetence!"

"You two out! You are no longer welcome here, please leave." I heard Milton say in a serious tone.

"Celestine let's go." Augustin said reaching out his paw. "We can do a much better job by ourselves."

"We should have never considered patronizing this riff-raff." Celestine said accompanying her companion.

"Milton everything ok?" I asked as Shira, Kenna and I entered their home.

"I think they are still sore about Melinda and I using the soaking pool to wash our laundry."

"But that was weeks ago." Kenna interjected.

"And that I do not know how to groom porcupines. I think I rubbed their quills the wrong way." Melinda said welcoming us inside.

"Um perhaps I have come at a bad time?" The half human/half rabbit beastial said.

The interior of the couple's home looked like a professional groomer's with several chairs, brushes, shears and wash tubs and bowls.

"Nonsense dear." Melinda responded. "I do know how to groom rabbit."

"And I know about grooming humans." Milton responded. "Please have a seat."

I waved goodbye to Kenna as I resumed my rounds. "Milton and Melinda are great listeners they should be able to find her a roommate."

"I take it Celestine and Augustin do not like Milton and Melinda too much." Shira asked observing.

"Not so much no. The porcupines were rather affluent in the former empire while Milton and Melinda weren't." I said candidly.

"So when a dispute occurs around here how is it resolved?"

"Dispute?"

"Say I wronged you somehow Alex... I stole one of your possessions and lied about doing so. How would it be handled around here?"

"I guess we would go to the leadership and sort it out." I replied as we made our way to the central building where we found the red coupe and a pair of legs sticking out from underneath the rear of the vehicle.

"That could tie up the triumvirate from their primary duties." The tigress concluded.

"What is this now?" I said to my companion.

"It looks like the foot-paws of a brown bear and a spring hare." The tigress said observing.

"Afternoon Alex. Afternoon Shira." A female voice said from underneath the prototype.

"Mistress? What are you doing under there especially in your condition?!"

"An assessment." My warrior bear said. "Arugula?"

"This is a very sophisticated piece of machinery. I have no clue where to begin."

"Try." My perfect person said to the spring hare.

"You really need a systems specialist." Arugula said scanning the under belly of the red coupe.

"Mara is unavailable but we have you." Lady Ursa said abruptly.

"You know hover vehicles?" I asked the female ninja.

"Yes." She replied. "But this is no ordinary hover vehicle. The nose has to be reattached to the rest of the chassis- welded I suppose. Then the circuitry re-spliced. When that is accomplished only then can a complete systems check be conducted."

"That sounds complicated."

"It is Shira." I said as the two female warriors emerged from the red prototype.

"But if we could get this vehicle fully operational, we would have another weapon to defend the colony." My she beast said.

"Not to mention a way to find out how the previous operators of the vehicle perished." I added.

"But at this point we don't even know what is left on the vehicle's weaponry." Lady Ursa said as the spring hare let out a big yawn.

"Excuse me everyone, I need to lie down." Arugula said.

"Take the afternoon and evening off. You have earned it." My brown bear said.

"But what about guarding the exit to the east maze?" The female spring hare asked.

"I think Shira and I can manage. Besides it has been sealed off from the outside world anyway."

"Why was that Alex?" The saber-tooth tiger asked me.

"It exits out into the forest near Capital Stadium which is overrun with monsters."

"Earlier this year, the city suffered from constant monster attacks Shira." Lady Ursa said.

"It was a miracle that we survived." I added.

"Thanks for volunteering pet."

"Yes thank you." The spring hare said disappearing right in front of us.

"Nice trick." Shira said.

"You get used to it." I replied.

It turned out that Arugula was supposed to relieve the guards that afternoon right around 3 PM. So Shira and I had enough time to get lunch before heading into the eastern maze to take the she ninja's shift.

"This is going to be easy nothing is allowed into this maze from the forest."

"And if something does get in?"

"We confront it." I said showing the female barbarian my grappling hook and a curved horn. "And alert the rest of the warriors with this." She had brought her weaponry as well her poison darts and hunting spear.

"So Shira getting back to our conversation about individual disputes...."

"Yes?"

"How did you resolve them in your colony?"

"Combat."

"What?"

"If the argument was big enough the complainant and instigator would fight it out. The loser would compensate the victor and the colony would consider the matter closed."

"Wow, that is just wow."

"It is motivation for everyone to stay in shape and to work out disputes peacefully." The tigress said as a loud knocking noise was heard on the other side of the wall leading to the outside world.

It was getting louder.

"What is going on?!" Shira asked drawing her weapon.

!!!

"Someone or something is trying to enter from the outside!" I shouted.

*CRACK*

"The hell?!!" I shouted.

The wall sealing off the maze from the outside world split in half as three monsters confidently walked inside one appeared to be some type of half human/half scorpion like Demera the huntress only it was male. It carried a trident. Next to it appeared to be some type of monitor lizard. Its body was reddish/black and eyes looked like lightning bolts and they were smoking! Next to it appeared to be a black octopus with multiple vertical yellow eyes on what should have been its head. All three appeared to be quite fearsome and very dangerous.

"It looks like you have visitors Alex." Shira grumbled.

To Be Continued...
