An alternate reality story where Claude is a super powered Lion slave to an alien Reptile race


What I say now I say for the purpose of exposition. I don't remember any of it currently, my mind will have been wiped clean except for knowing my powers, and how to use them, and my name, my first name that is. We'll get to that in a bit, but first you must know who I am and where I have come from.

I am a young Leonine. (You'd call me a humanoid Lion walking on two legs) I come from a world called Earth, in what we have come to call it's Third Age. Earth is now populated by anthros such as me. We are basically humans in animal forms, and with the gifts of our animal natures. Earth was originally the cradle of the Human race, but Homo Sapiens have long since migrated to the stars. We are the children of those who were left behind on Earth, mixed with the DNA of the animals native to Earth. And we now breed true, we're no longer Mutants, but we are our own species. Our blood mixes but breeds true. Two parents of different species will produce a child of either species, but not a mixed one. A Lion such as my father mated to a Tiger such as my mother, would produce a Lion such as me, or a Tiger such as my younger brother.(May God rest his Soul)

My powers are the result of an experiment by a scientist who many have called Mad. He is my Uncle, and he goes by the name of Dr Issac Buttertoast, and he is a Bengal Tiger. He raised me when my parents were killed, and he loved me, quite literally, I can not remember ever not sleeping with him. He really loves me and he will be heartbroken for a long time over what will happen to us. But I am getting ahead of myself here. Through controlled exposure to mixed forms of radiation I have what Dr Buttertoast will call relativity powers.(I don't pretend to understand it all either, I have energy generation powers, multiple types of energy blasts, matter restructuring powers, flight, multiple types of visions, and the ability to lower my molecular density and phase through solid objects)

Dr. Buttertoast gave me my powers to help stop an invasion from space he detected years before, but no one would listen to him, so he gave me powers to beat them back. Despite my powers, and after a long and hard fight, I failed miserably. And they invaded Earth and Uncle and I were taken prisoner. My Tiger brother was killed when the invaders tested him to see if he had latent powers. He was slaughtered in a battle that they thought might bring them to the surface. He died right in front of my eyes and I could not save him. My own powers were neutralized by an inhibitor collar they put on me. (It was also designed to further break my will and make me more malleable to them)

The invaders were a cold blooded reptilian species called the Psion. They swarmed over our beautiful Earth, and despite the attempts by me and the Military to fight them off they took our world. They caught me, they had captured Uncle, and used him to force me to surrender. And I still have no idea what happened to our world after they took me away in chains with my powers neutralized.

I had my mind wiped, rather thoroughly. As I said before I was left knowing my powers, and my first name, and allowed to keep the knowledge of my beloved Uncle being held against my good behavior. And it was traumatic. I felt raped while it was happening. And I fought hard to keep my mind. But I knew I could not stop them, there were at least a dozen Telepaths working on me. And my own budding Telepathy was not even remotely enough to stop it. My struggles just made it much more painful.

When they finished, I was brought in to see my Uncle, and he was almost hysterical to see me completely broken, and not even remembering him. They told him they would keep him alive as long as he would work for them, and use his scientific genius for them. He was upset, but he agreed. They were upset when his attempts to recreate my powers with their soldiers failed miserably. Every test subject died a painful and agonized death before they completed the radiation process. Enraged the ship's commander sent poor Dr Buttertoast to a prison planet.

I was kept, since I could not be the template for a batch of new soldiers, I was kept as a slave, deployed to trouble spots to fight for the Psion army. I had not the will to fight their orders. It's amazing how docile you can get when you know nothing about yourself. I was treated humanely if I followed their orders, so after a while that was more than enough to keep me in line.

I liked the Psion Captain assigned to watch over me and direct me. He was kind for a cold blood, and was pleased for me when I did well and obeyed him completely. When he was killed helping me stop a Khund incursion, my rage was spectacular, and I slaughtered an entire regiment of Khund soldiers. And left a nuclear dead zone surrounding their dead fleet that has been marked to be avoided for Centuries.

I am on a battle cruiser awaiting my new commander, and/or next assignment. I am being checked out and tested. The Psion are a methodical race, they want to make sure my powers remain stable and that they know the limits of their 'weapon with fur' as they refer to me at times. The Psion warriors are a bit dismissive of me, but they are not unkind, they have a serious level of ego centrism about them. And the rank and file warriors respect me for what I have done, and what I can do.

Our ship answers a distress call from a Psion slaver ship, and as we approach the ship it seems almost dead. I do a cursory mental scan, and there is blinding panic and fear radiating from it. I fully expect to be deployed to check the ship out since I would not need a suit or any equipment. But an away team is sent instead of me. It will turn out to be a grave mistake. One that only a few of either ship will survive.

I am kept to my testing and evaluations. The one in charge of the tests is unknown to me, I have heard his voice but not seen him. The Psion techs speak of him in hushed, almost reverent tones. The testing is grueling and very thorough. And I'm left exhausted after each testing session.

When my testing is done, I am taken to meet him. And for only the second time in the seven years I have been a Psion slave I am placed in chains. He is not a Psion or else he's unlike any Psion I've ever seen. I am pushed to my knees in his presence. I lower my head and remain silent. My will to resist has long since been quashed. And I docilely do what I am told to.

And he introduces himself as General Wu Shen Long. His voice is rich, and strong, with a commanding tone. He is tall, and broad, and very stocky. He is a cold blood, he looks to me to be massively built. He has one eye covered with an eye patch, and his remaining eye is a deep Gold. He has a rather severe look on his face though he is not angry now. He has a long muzzle with hair on it, a goatee of sorts around the end of it, and hair under his long chin, and the part of his upper lip where it joins his mouth. He has black, Grey, and white hair sweeping back from his head. He has a pair of cylindrical horns, blunt and irregular on the back of his head. His body is covered with small scales, a pale green-gray. His hands are large and have long fingers, and long conical shaped claws on the end of his fingers. His tail is thick and long and powerful looking, and the top surface of it is covered in black hair. His feet are huge and thick clawed. I do not look up into his face and I keep my head lowered as I have been taught to. I am confused as to why I am here, but I know only to do what I am commanded to.

He takes my chin in one of his hands, and makes me look into his eye. For some reason, my mind tells me he looks like a Furred Dragon more so than a Psion. "You are almost attractive, for a mammal that is" he says smiling. I do not answer him, I know not to speak unless questioned in direct address. "I have read his files, and he will be coming with me when I leave here" General Shen Long says smiling. He is addressing the senior tech staff not me, I'll learn of my fate indirectly. I am amazed he spoke to me as he did.

"Psion command was impressed with his record, and his reactions when his commander was killed" he says. "He reacted from his grief and rage, and took proper revenge on Capt Zrrks' killers" he says. "Just as any Psion with his capabilities would have done" the General says softly. "He is an impressive mammal, General" the chief tech says smiling. "You are a Terran?" he asks me directly. "I know not, Master" I say meekly. "Ah, he was very thoroughly mind wiped, I had forgotten" the General says. "He is not kept restrained normally?" the General asks. "No need to, Sir" the chief tech says. "He is not rebellious, he merely does what he is told to the best of his ability, and he will not act without the directions of his handlers, General" he adds. "He is loyal to us, Sir" the tech adds. "He is obedient, yet he gives us his best when he fights as we bid him to" the tech says proudly.

"Is this so, Mammal?" the General asks me. "I am the property of the Psion, Master" I say softly. "I do only what I am bid to" I say lowering my head again. "Obedient, and loyal, and he can fight none the less" the General says with a small smile. He's looking me over, but he seems impressed with me. "His test results are amazing, he is incredibly powerful, yet docile and loyal" he muses aloud.

He's the first cold blood I've ever seen that I would consider sexy. He's still got his hand on my face, and he's gently stroking my mane, and I purr against my will. He pulls his hand away at the noise. "What is that?" the General asks shaken. "He is happy, Sir, he makes that noise when he is happy or content" the tech says. "He made it for hours when he destroyed the Khund fleet that killed our Captain, General Shen Long." the tech says smiling. "A mammal with the heart of a Psion warrior, this is indeed interesting" the General says. And he leans down and whispers to me. "My touch made you happy, did it little Mammal?" he asks . I nod. "What is your name, little Mammal, do you remember that much at least?" he asks. " I do, General Shen Long, I am called Claude" I say unsure as to why I am now blushing. And purring to beat the band. "He is happy at the attentions from his new Commander" Jerrl the tech says. General Shen Long smiles softly. And it's so sexy.

"How goes the plan to try to breed from him?" General Shen Long asks. "He is uninterested in mating, no interest shown in any of the females we have introduced him to, Psion or otherwise" Jerrl says softly. "So, you must like males" he says gently. "His genetic structure has resisted any attempts at cloning." Jerrl says. "His base radioactivity sterilizes any egg his semen is artificially exposed to" Jerrl says softly.

"What am I to do with you, little Mammal, Psion command wants more like you, any way we can produce them" General Shen Long says. I lower my head more, and I am silent. "There are species that reproduce through males, I will have to match you with one of them then" he says firmly. I look up at him. His face is soft now, he has a kind of bemused expression, and he's thinking of something serious I can see. He leans forward. And he whispers to me, his voice more tender than I would have expected.. "I may even have to breed you myself, and let you carry them" he whispers. I smile at him. "Would you carry sons from your Master?" he asks."You Mammals bear live young instead of laying eggs, I would know if you would let me breed you" he whispers. "I would proudly bear for my new Master" I whisper back. He grins. I'm purring again much louder.

He takes my face in his hands. "I am your new Commander and your Master, I hope you will obey me as well as you did Capt Zrrks, and I hope you will care enough for me that you would seek vengeance if I died as he did" the General says. "I will, Master" I say earnestly. And I feel a thrill when I call him my Master. It doesn't escape his notice. His eye is shining at me now. And I notice an odd shaped swelling in his lower abdomen.

Before I can follow up on it, there is a mayday call over the loud speakers. I look over at the slaver ship with my full spectrum of visions. I am shocked and appalled at what I see happening there. Our away team is wrapped up in tentacles and being held fast by these amorphous looking creatures. The slaver crew is as well. And I see many with extremely distended abdomens. And I watch one of our Lt's struggling hard against the tentacles, and he manages to free his sword. Two smaller, thinner tentacles appear, and they push into his ears, and two more go into his nostrils. And he screams bloodcurdlingly. And the tentacles withdraw from his head all bloody and his eyes are now blank. And he falls motionless. They lobotomized him before my very eyes. For the first time since I got my powers I am very afraid.

"What is happening, Mammal?" the General roars at me. I point to a view screen and I make it show what I have seen and am now seeing. Jerrl gasps, as does the General. And then we see something I know I will never live to forget. A thick tentacle snakes up to him, and I can see large, oval, shapes inside of it, and it pushes up into the Lt's anus. And he's groaning as it seems to be feeding those oval things up into his body. And I understand now to my utter horror. "Eggs" the General roars. "It's infesting them with it's eggs, damn it" he roars. "Get over there, and help them" he roars at me. "General?" Jerrl says softly. "We know those Xenoforms, and our people are lost to us now, even those it didn't lobotomize, the eggs are in them, and their minds belong to the Xenoforms now, the eggs will hatch in them, and burst from their bodies, and their is no way to get them back once they've been implanted" he says softly. "They are mere egg filled living shells, General" Jerrl says "Our troops are as good as dead now" he says sadly.

"We do not know that they could not take Claude as well, and the offspring might end up with his powers" Jerrl says softly. "Thus we do not dare send him in blindly, General" Jerrl says respectfully. The General notes one of our troops in the corner, tied but not being infested presently. "Go bring that one back, you can do it, phase in, take him, and phase out again" the General says. I nod. I know it's a bad idea, but I am so conditioned to obey. I can't refuse to go save him. If I could of offered the least little bit of resistance all on this battle cruiser would have lived. Something I'll carry with me my whole life.

And I go despite my fear and horror.. I note that there are many slaves in a locked compartment on the ship. And they are not infested, apparently they locked themselves in when the ship was attacked. But their air, and food and water will run out soon, so I must get instructions to save them. I bring the survivor back to the sick bay, and I report to the General. Jerrl seems sad. I ask him why. "It would only need one egg implanted in him, and they could take him over and infiltrate us, the General has never faced this before, and does not know" he says shaking his head. I nod. "He could be but a decoy or a trap, my Mammalian brother." he says sadly.(Sadly, Jerrl is right.)

I go to find him. But he is preoccupied, and he gets mad at me when I keep trying to get instructions on freeing the trapped slaves. "Free them if you must, and destroy those things on the ship, better our soldiers die now than be dishonored by being taken over and then burst apart. I nod. And I fly out again.

I concentrate and I form the locked section of the slaver ship into a life pod. And I phase into it and I explain what I am doing, and they are pleased. "Better we remain alive as potential slaves than to be burst apart" one of them says. I get the worst headache on seeing one of the slaves. An older stocky Tiger. He looks at me, and he weeps. And my head is splitting. I tell them to hang on and I'll take them to the battle cruiser's hangar deck, and I tow them. And I leave them in the hanger.

I fly out and I concentrate and seal the slaver ship, and I use a force beam to push it into the yellow sun closest to us. I can hear the psychic death cries of the Psion soldiers. They are grateful for the release of death as they burn up in the sun. I can find no psychic traces of the infestors. I pray to God for the souls of those we could not have saved. And I weep as I turn and fly back to the ship.

The Cruiser's Captain has the slaves checked out medically, and he puts them in the hold after feeding them. He is a humane soul. But he is concerned about having anyone aboard that was on that slaver ship. Except for me. They saw what happened when I was on the slaver ship. One of the beasts' tentacles tried to grab me and it stopped when it got close to me. And the beast shrieked and moved away from me. My best guess would be that my native radioactivity was somehow painful to it. I emit a low level of beta particle radiation at all times. Safe to Humans, Anthros and Psions, but not apparently to these things.

I curl up in my quarters and try to sleep. But I am troubled by all of this, and why my head hurt when I saw that Tiger. I feel something for him. But I cannot remember him, I don't know him, but I know somehow he cares about me. And I don't know why. I go to the hold, and I phase through the wall, and I bring him out into the cargo bay with me.

"Who are you?" I snap. " How do I know you?" I beg him. "You remember nothing still?" he asks. "I don't know who I am, but I have to know who you are, and why I react to you like I do" I beg him. "I am your Uncle, Dr. Issac Buttertoast, and I was captured to make you servile to them" he says hugging me tightly. "I survived on the prison world, and got pulled into an escape attempt, and was sent to be a slave" he says.

"I am not alone anymore." I say hugging him tightly. "No, your parents are dead, but you lived with me, and you loved me, and I gave you your powers, boy" he says crying hard as he holds me tightly. "Dr Buttertoast" I say softly. I grab him and I strip him, and when he is naked, my memories of him and our life together come back. "You always did like this old moth eaten body of mine" Uncle says smiling. I kiss him. And he weeps and we both cry as he makes love to me. And I feel again, for the first time in ages, I feel something really good. I feel his love and lust for me, and I remember how wonderful it is to feel wanted and loved by someone. Some of my memory comes back in bits and pieces. I know I can't let them separate us again. He's all I have now.

"I won't let you be sold as a slave Uncle, I will get them to keep you with me" I say holding him tightly. "They will not allow that, you might remember your life, you do remember your life with me, just only how much we cared for each other" he says softly. "They are angry with me since I could not recreate the process by which you got your powers" he says kissing me.

"Your Uncle is correct, we know who he is now, and you will not be permitted to keep him with you" General Shen Long says surprising us both. I hold Uncle tightly to me. "I will not let him go" I say fiercely. "He is all I have left, and I will not let him go" I snarl. "My docile little Mammal has some free will after all" he says laughing. "It is good I came to make sure you were well, little Lion" he says taking out his side arm. "He is valuable after all, he will be the means to keep you in line, little Mammal" the General says softly. "Disobey me ever, and I will kill him on the spot" he snaps. "You would not" I snap. "I was wrong about you, you had such a kind eye, and I thought you cared for me, just a bit" I say angrily. "I do, damn you, my uppity little Mammal" he snaps back. "In your own words, I love you, damn your warm blooded soul." he snarls. I'm stunned. Uncle looks very puzzled.

"I felt the bond forming when I first touched you, and I did not know what it meant then, but I do now" he says shakily. "You kept your hand on my face while you asked me of what I knew, and how their plans had gone for me" I say softly. "And you, what's the word, purred when I stroked you" he says still angry. "You have ruined my life, and maybe my career, you cursed warm blood" he roars. "I would have taken you to command, and quietly kept you with me always, and made you love me, and not had to reveal my love even to you" he says angrily. "You would have been mine, and I would have bred you in the name of making more males with your powers" he says angrily.

"Claude, who is he?" Uncle asks me. "He is my new Commanding officer and my Master" I say softly. "You serve them" Uncle says surprised. "I do, I have no other life now, I fight for them as they bid me" I say softly. "He is not a Psion, he can't be, he is a.."Uncle starts. "Damn you, how do you know what I am when I do not" General Shen Long snaps. "You are from Earth, you are a Chinese Sun Dragon in fact" Dr Buttertoast says firmly. "No, I am not, I am a mutant Psion" he hollers. And I know now he's been mind wiped too. And he's not letting go of that identity they gave him. "Uncle, think of me, as much as you can remember" I whisper to him. And I link to his mind. And I know myself again. Not totally, but I know more than I did. He's happy to have me back he says to me in my head. And I am convinced now I have to take Uncle and run from here.

"You will not do this" General roars at me. And he takes a small device off of his belt, and he clips it around my neck. I can't access my powers anymore, my Telepathy still works but none of my other powers do. "I will not be ruined by your lies, mammal" he roars. I get angry and I lock to his mind, and I read him as deeply as I can. I could stun him mentally or put him to sleep, but I can't act against him. I love him, and I know it now.

Dr Buttertoast is right, he is a Chinese Sun Dragon. The last of his kind in fact. As a child he was kidnapped from Earth as I was, they came looking for him, and I see now that the Psion came to Earth to get me, I was why they came, they wanted me for my powers. And they left Earth alone after they took Uncle and I away. They withdrew when they could not find anymore super powered anthros.

Wu Shen Long has a strong military mind, and he has an almost preternatural grasp of battle strategy. And he is functionally immortal, and immensely strong, and indestructible. I tell him all I have read from his mind. He's stunned. But he hits a button on a device he takes out of his belt, and I pass out from an electric shock. Uncle grabs me as I fall.

I wake up, I can't access my powers still, and I'm chained tightly to a wall. The chains easily weigh as much as I do. My neck and arms and legs and tail are chained to the wall. I move my head as much as I can, and I see Uncle chained to the wall a few feet from me. He's not as tightly chained as I am. "Your Dragon said he would keep me with you, until it was time for us to die, and that we would die together" Uncle says softly. "So he loves me, but to protect his false life, he's going to kill us" I say softly. "Uncle, I'm so sorry" I say sadly. "No, better to die with my beloved nephew than to live a pitiful life as a slave, though they would have sold me for my intellect" he says softly.

We are silent for a while. I hear Psion death cries in my head, I can't turn my Telepathy off now. And apparently the survivor Shen Long insisted I save was infested and they are breaking out all over the ship. I scan the hold. The slaves are safe for the moment. And I take a few minutes to scan their minds. A lot of them are space pirates. And they are trying to plan some sort of escape. I warn them of the infestation of the ship, and tell them they need to stay in the hold.

I tell Uncle what is happening. "If we will die anyway, I'd rather not die with a belly full of eggs popping me open" he says. I laugh. I would kiss Uncle if I could reach him. "I am happy to be reunited with you Dr Buttertoast, if only for a short time" I say happily. "I am glad to have seen you again, and I am happy you let me make love to you again, Claude" Uncle says smiling. "I'd let you do it again if we could reach each other now" I say laughing.

I hear my name, and Jerrl blasts the door lock apart. "Claude, you're our last hope, I'm the only one free now, they have captured or ingested all of the others" he says terrified out of his mind. "Shen Long?" I ask upset. "He is being held by them, but he has not been eaten or infested yet" Jerrl says. "He loves you, he begged for your forgiveness when they grabbed him" Jerrl says sobbing. "Here" he says and he pushes a button on a device I can't see. My collar unlocks, and I can feel my powers coming back. I phase out of the chains. And I dissolve Uncle's chains. "I have to go, Jerrl, you have been my only friend here, please keep my beloved Dr Buttertoast safe, and we'll get out of here as soon as I can rescue anyone who is still able to be rescued" I say sharply. "I will, my mammalian brother" he says hugging me tightly.. "I hope you can still save General Shen Long, he would love you much" Jerrl says. "We should go to the hold, and join with the surviving slaves" Uncle says smiling. Jerrl looks uncomfortable. "Brother, I will not let them hurt you, you have been so good to me, and I love you" I say hugging him. Jerrl hugs me back. I let go of him, and I hug Uncle and I go through the wall towards the control room where I know they are.

I am stunned and relieved. There are at least a dozen Psion unharmed as of yet. And my Beloved Dragon is unharmed as well. Shen Long is cursing them and lashing out with his tail at them. And he's breaking their tentacles when he hits them with his burly tail. My love is bellowing in his rage and he is trying to protect those others who have not been injured or infested yet. I come through the wall, and I blast the tentacles holding my Wu Shen Long. He roars and he's using his claws to free the others now. And I keep blasting the beasts. I have noticed the more nuclear energy I put into the blasts the more the things scream. Shen Long has the others moving now, all supporting one another, and they make it out of the room. Counting Jerrl that means 14 out of the 488 Psions that crewed this ship are left alive. I say a silent prayer for the souls of those I could not save. And I use my rage to fuel my powers. And I hurt them as badly as I can. I know I'm safe they and their tentacles won't come any closer than three feet to me.

I have to go now, I have to make sure that my Dragon and the other survivors make it off the ship alive. I fly quickly and I soon catch up to the others. Wu Shen Long pulls me out of the air and into his arms in his joy to see me, and he kisses me hard. And I cry, because he's safe now, and he loves me. "We will talk soon little Mammal of mine, know now that I love you with all of my soul" he says kissing me again.

We get to the hangar deck. The door won't open. I phase through and the surviving slaves are being held back by three of the beasts. I start pouring on the nuclear energy, and I know I can't keep this up. I'll exhaust my powers before I can kill all three of them

One of the slaves, a big brown pot bellied Grizzly picks up a broken container of fuel and splashes it on one of the beasts. I see what he's up to, and I ignite the fuel with a laser beam. And the resulting explosion takes two of them out in a fiery burst.

I start firing again at the remaining one. "No, love you must fix one of the ships so we can escape, we can kill this one, but only my loving Lion can repair a ship" Wu Shen Long says kissing me. And he and the Grizzly are piecing some sort of weapon together.

"Uncle" I ask. And he comes into one of the larger shuttles with me. "I can do this, but it'll take me too long to explain to you how to fix this up, nephew" Uncle says. I grab him and I put his paws on either side of my head, and I open my mind to him, and I tell him to just access my powers and do it. And after a minute he does.

And he's happy, he's seeing the world as I do, a mix of patterns of energy and matter, and how matter looks almost as if it's made of tinker toys, easy to reshape and reconfigure. He's fixed and enlarged and improved the shuttle in moments, and even I would have taken much longer to do this with my powers. He's turned it into a full Star Cruiser. "I forget how much of a genius you really are, Uncle" I say kissing him. He grins. "I can't believe that is how you see the world, it is so amazing" he says grinning.

We'll find out later I linked him too tightly, he'll end up keeping a small portion of my visions and my molecular reshaping abilities. He's thrilled by it though, so I'll be happy for him. He can only affect a mass of up to a few hundred pounds but he'll be happy with that.

I hear an explosion and I throw up an energy shield to protect the ship we improved on, Jerrl throws himself on and moves the big Grizzly out of the way of the blast. The Grizzly hugs him in gratitude. The last beast is badly injured but alive. "Everyone in the ship" Shen Long hollers. And I scan them as they board. "We're lucky, no one is infested" I say still too afraid to let out my breath fully. Jerrl is at the controls of the ship, and we begin to take off. I blast a hole in the hanger door of the Battle Cruiser and we're off. When we're free of the Cruiser I phase out and push the Battle Cruiser into the nearest sun.

As we bank around the side of the sun I see a Psion battle group approaching at half speed. The slaves are not happy. "No" Shen Long says. "I am not going back, nor is my Lion" he says firmly. I grab Uncle. "He goes where I do, my Dragon love" I say. Wu Shen Long nods. "I will go where my Mammalian brother goes." Jerrl says softly. I hug him. "I'm glad, brother" I say happily.

"Those of you who wish to go back, I will take you to Far Point Station to be returned to Psion territory" Shen Long says softly. Our Captain tells me he doesn't ever want to fight again, that he wants to find a nice peaceful, lush world and spend his days happily. I hug him and laugh. The survivors of the Battle Cruiser want to go with their Captain. We sit and talk to the pirate crew, and they want to be returned to one of their base worlds. So we know we have much to do yet.

We sit in the galley I made and we eat, and Wu Shen Long, Uncle, Jerrl and I discuss our plans. "Could we go back to Earth?" Uncle asks. "If you wish Uncle, but there is nothing to keep the Psion from returning to recapture me" I say softly. "The Black Beacon from the Dreadnought will let Psion Command know what happened and they will know you are alive, and that you saved as many of their crew as you could" Shen Long says softly. "But they undoubtedly will still want me as a weapon" I say scared. "They will" he says smiling. "But won't they want you back too" I ask my Dragon. "They will, so we will have to be on guard for a long time" he says sounding unconcerned. "I wish, like Captain Jarrks, to find a nice peaceful, lush, maybe even tropical world for us to spend our lives together" Shen Long says. And he looks sad all of a sudden.

"What is wrong, my love?" I ask." I am immortal, I won't die, and I won't have you for long" he says sadly, fighting tears. I am sad too, I hate to think of leaving my beautiful cold blooded Dragon alone. "Not necessarily, Claude" Uncle says between large mouthfuls of pie. I look at him. "You're now composed of solidified energy, you won't die either, my boy" Uncle says kissing us both. "I won't die either, since you shared your powers with me so I could fix the ship" he says smiling. Wu Shen Long is so happy now. His eye is shining with his love for me. "You are perfect for me, you loved me when you thought I was a Psion, and you will love me for an eternity" he says kissing me gently.

"I have a lot of respect for the Psions, I just don't want to be their weapon" I say smiling. "I love my Psion brother a lot" I say kissing Jerrl. "Claude, I have been lonely too, you leaned on me, and you gave me friendship and caring, and I knew you felt for me" Jerrl says. "We are different, you never held the differences in emotions between cold and warm bloods against me." he says. "I would not have survived as I did as a Psion slave without my Psion brother's help and advice and support" I say gently. He is really all that kept me going. He was kind and he would talk to me and keep me company and explain how life in Psion society worked so I would understand and cope.

After we eat, we all go to our quarters. Wu Shen Long and I curl up, and we lay and talk for a while. He is a great kisser, and he is passionate for a cold blood. "I would take you when you are ready for me" Shen Long says softly. And he takes off his clothes. I note he rarely goes naked. Must be a cold blood thing.

I am a bit surprised when I see him naked. It seems he has a slit instead of a penis. I am puzzled. Wu Shen Long laughs when I mention it. "You have a surprise coming my love" he says laughing. And he kisses me deeply and with full tongue. My blood is hot now for him. "We are not true cold bloods my love, we Dragons are a mix of hot and cold blood" he says sticking his tongue down my throat. And he pushes my face down to his slit. And he rubs it against my face. There is a swelling behind it running up along the lower portion of his abdomen.

"Lick it" he moans gruffly. I do, and he groans in pleasure. And a huge dick pops out, it's really big, and he has no balls either. "My dick retracts, my love, and I have internal testicles but they are always full" he says pushing his massive dick into my mouth. And I can hardly keep up with his flow of pre-cum. He's leaking a lot. "I have not had sex in many years, my sweet Mammal" he says nuzzling and biting my neck. "I will cum quickly, but many times before I wear out" he says. "I will always be that way, it is how we Dragons are" he says. "Can you take me?" he asks. "I will, I want you, I have since I first saw you, my Master" I say gently. "Will you have me as your Master?" he says smiling. "It fired up my blood when you called me that when I questioned you" Shen Long says. "It is when I knew that I loved you, and I was going to take you as my own someway" he says kissing me.

"Please, take your Master inside of you, he is anxious to take his Lion for the first time" Shen Long says licking my neck. I put up my legs, and he gently pushes his massive wedge shaped and ridged dick into me. I kick and moan and growl and I push back on him. But even I can't get him all of the way into me. There is a gap between my ass and his slit. "It is as far as you can go, my love, you have all of me now" he says gruffly.

I feel things for my Dragon that I have never felt before, from anyone. He bites my neck hard, and I'm bleeding slightly. "I had to, it is how we bond" he says sadly. I nod. And he speeds up inside of me. And he bites my neck again, and he roars and bellows and convulses and he's flooding my ass with his Dragon seed. "You are mine now, for always, and you will see how tightly I have bound you to me" he says kissing me and panting. We make love for most of the night. and he'll come a total of 12 times, and I finally doze off in the arms of my Dragon love. He sleeps lightly and wakes frequently. "It is how I am, love" he says gently. I can get used to it. I love feeling his soft scales against me as I sleep and I love how he surrounds me so totally when he holds me to him. We awaken in the morning and go to the gallery for breakfast.

We are following the course Jerrl set. Carl, the big pot bellied Grizzly, who is the Captain of the Space Pirates told us of a world that would be hospitable to the Psion crew and we're going to take them first to their new home. After a couple of weeks we find it, and it is a beautiful world. We land, and I help them set up a camp and I make comfortable homes for them. And after a week or two we leave them. I kind of hate to leave Captain Jarrks, he's an honorable and kind Psion. And I sincerely wish them well.

We set our course for the Pirates home world. And they seem very happy now. We have to go slower now, as the Psion know what sort of craft we're using, though since they too must be careful as we're not in 'their space' and they must not even appear aggressive or they'll break their treaties.

We have time to get to know them. And they are not a bad bunch. Chuck, their Captain is determined to free his home world one day from the Psion, which is why he was captured. Most of their Pirate activities are against several Psion friendly regimes and they are trying to fund resistance organizations, and aid some of the oppressed worlds.

Chuck spends a lot of time trying to get us to join them. And he's a very persuasive, and seductive Grizzly. But I tell him I want to just live quietly, and my powers alone are not enough to tip the scales in their favor. Plus the Psion have studied me, and they know more about how my powers work than even I do, and thus they know how to counter them. I do relent enough to give him a signal device, for the direst of emergencies, that I will sense, and be able to track him with.

Chuck makes love to me, softly and passionately. And he's pretty damned good at it. But I know what he wants, he wants me, so I'll help, if I'm in love with him. But my heart belongs to my Chinese Sun Dragon, and I tell him so. Chuck laughs, and he tells me I was worth it, even if I wouldn't fall for him, I was more than worth fucking. He kisses me, and dresses and leaves my quarters.

I go tell Wu Shen, and he laughs. "I would have tried that too, in fact I was going to, I would have taken you to me, as your new Commander, and made you fall for me, and you would have been mine to completely command" He says smiling. "Why didn't you then?" I ask him. "I fell in love with you first" he says kissing me. "My little Mammal" he says softly, and he strokes me gently. And I can see his dick swelling. I lean down and I lick his slit and his huge dick pops out. And he smiles at me. "I will go once, but we have too much to do, I will make it up to you tonight, my Claude" he says. And he lays me on the floor and we make love passionately. "I must talk to you soon, of something important, something you must know for our future lives, but no need at present" Wu Shen Long tells me passionately. "Know that I love you, and I look forward to our long lives together" he says biting my neck. He roars and fills my ass with his Dragon seed. And I feel so loved now.

He gets up and redresses. And he deep kisses me. And he leaves our room. I feel a bit sad, but he's right we have a lot to consider and work on now. And I wonder what he wants to talk to me about, and why not now.

I go about my business. I use my powers to keep the ship running properly, fixing little faults, refueling it, and such. My mind is wandering. I run across Uncle, and he makes love to me twice, he's happy, and he's horny, and he's glad I'm loved but he's lonely too.

I go lay down a while. And I am surprised when Wu Shen comes in and lays by me. "It is not fair for me to bring something up and not tell you" he says. "You are not my subject you are my mate, and I must treat you like you are" he says softly.

"Claude, I wish to have sons by you, and we can, you will be the one to bear from me" Wu Shen says. "We will not do so for a while yet, but you need to know this so you can prepare for it" he says. And he explains how it will all work when we do. Thank God it's an intentional thing so I won't have to worry about getting accidentally pregnant. "You will have a bit of difficulty, mostly due to me being much bigger than you" he says. "Will they be Dragons or Lions?" I ask. He laughs. "They could be either, but our first son will be a Dragon" He says. "I am the last of my kind, and I must replenish my species, even if they will be half Lion, they will be as my ancestors were" Wu Shen says kissing me. I think a bit. And I know I'll eventually have questions but I can't get my mind around it now. But when I see the love in Wu Shen Long's eye for his little Lion, I know I'll give him all of the sons he wants Lion or Dragon.

"We will be settled somewhere, long enough to know it is our permanent home, and then we will turn our attention to breeding" he says smiling . And he gently rubs my belly " I can hardly wait to see my Lion's belly swollen with my sons." he says grinning. To my surprise, I feel the same way, as I can barely wait to bear for my Dragon. I have never felt this much love. I know Uncle loves me, and I have to figure out how to keep him from being lonely. But I'm almost anxious to be heavy with my love's Dragon sons.

He goes back to the control room. And I go about my duties as before. I am happier and my heart is light now. I do worry about how lonely Uncle is. And I pray that we can make it up to him somehow.

I lay back down when I'm done. I'm a bit tired. I doze for a while. Wu Shen Long comes in a bit later. He lays down with me and he wakes me. We kiss for a while. "Breed me" I beg him. "We should wait, things are too unsettled" he says smiling. "Are you that anxious to start giving me sons?" he asks. "I am, I'm a bit surprised, but I could hardly think of anything else since you told me we would breed one day" I say quietly. "It won't be easy on you, my pups or cubs will be big" he says stroking my mane. "I don't care" I say smiling. "You want my sons rather badly" he says smiling. "My Lion loves me so" he says nuzzling my neck.

"On your back" he says smiling. "I will breed you now, you really want this, you can't wait to be heavy with our first Dragon son" he says happily. He's nuzzling my neck. "What do we do?"I ask. "Think of me, and how much you love me and want my son in you, I'll do the rest" he says grinning. He's hard and it's popped out of his slit. And he pushes up me. And he's fucking me slowly and his dick is getting bigger inside of me, and it kind of feels odd. He bites my neck hard. And then he grips my neck in his big jaws. And he grunts and I feel him cumming, but it's different, thicker and warmer. He's silent now, and I can hear his breathing getting heavy. "Do you want my son in you?" he growls. "I do, desperately" I say softly. This thick, warm fluid keeps pumping into me. And I feel a warmth spreading across my abdomen. I growl and I'm cramping badly. His dick is swollen even bigger inside of me now. And he's panting heavily. He lays motionless on top of me for quite a while, his dick feeling locked inside of me.. And I yowl and scream as my guts start to burn. "I am sorry, my love" he says gently. He strokes my mane to calm me. And he lays on top of me a while longer. And I cramp badly. I'd be doubled over if he wasn't on top of me. "It is done" he says kissing me. My belly is already swelling a bit.

He pulls out of me. And he kisses me repeatedly. "You took on the first breeding, you do want my sons badly" he says kissing me. He's grinning and gently stroking my slightly swollen belly. "Grow well, my son" he whispers to my belly. "You must stay in bed, try to stay on your back, it will ease the pains and help our Dragon pup attach to your womb" he says stroking my mane. "How long?" I ask. "A few hours" he says. "Stay with me?" I beg him. He smiles. "I will, this is going to bond us even tighter, my Lion" he says happily. "Little one, my semen first had to help you form breeding structures and a womb, and then it blended with your own DNA, our pup will be a Dragon this time, but he will take from both of us" Shen Long says kissing me. "I have a little Wu Shen Long inside of me, I wanted it so badly, my Dragon" I say kissing him. He's happy now. "You've been developing them since the first time I came inside of you, I had to wait until they had formed enough for you to take my son into you" he says kissing me deeply. He lays by me and he's petting my belly. I am swollen to where I look like I've gained five to ten pounds.. I will be pretty big by the time I birth our son. I will supposedly gain 60 to 75 pounds from his Dragon pup in me. Wu Shen told me how I would give birth through a canal that will form as I grow our son. And it would take nine months for me to gestate. It will be painful, and rather bloody when I give birth, but I am not at risk for dying. He's not sure about whether our sons will nurse, being as I'm a Mammal and they'll be part Mammal too.

We lay together and we talk. He's got his memories back and mine are starting to come back. He loves me so much though. I have never felt so content and loved. Wu Shen is kissing me almost constantly. "I had been afraid of how you'd take me wanting to breed you" he says nuzzling me. "You will take no other into you, except for your Uncle, we are bound tightly now, and I will allow him to take you still, but no one else" he says firmly. "Yes, Master" I say quietly. And I feel so content still. He wants me as his own, but he loves Uncle too.

We lay together with me on my back. He's touching and stroking me constantly. "I am so happy that you were so anxious for me to breed you, Claude, you must love me so much" he says softly. "I do, Wu Shen" I say quietly. "I don't have all of my memories back, but I do know I am where I belong, at my Dragon's side and carrying his son" I say smiling. "Our sons once born will mature quickly, but I want many sons, it is our duty to replenish my kind" he says smiling. "Truth to tell, I know our sons will be beautiful and I'd want many of them, even if we didn't have to replenish my species" he says happily. "Sleep now" he says wrapping his thick tail around my legs. And I doze off. I'm tired now. But the new life in me is developing and taking from me I know.

When I wake, Wu Shen Long is rubbing my belly gently and I'm bigger than I was when I fell asleep. "He will start to grow quickly, and get large in you, but he won't grow like this for the whole of your gestation, my love" he says kissing me.

"Wu Shen, he probably will have my powers too" I say softly. "I expected that, we will train him, my Lion" he says smiling. "Claude, I love you so much, and you have made me a very happy Dragon" he says smiling. "I'm a very happy Lion, thank you my love, for breeding me now" I say putting my head on his chest. "Claude, you are all to me that I ever could have wanted, I am sorry it took me so long to sort things out, I had to be captured and I feared I would die without every knowing your love to know how much I needed you" Wu Shen Long says softly. "You were mind wiped as I was, but I wanted you, from the moment you gently stroked my mane" I say quietly. "I see, that is why you purred when I touched you, you were happy to know you loved me" he says nuzzling my belly. We lay together for most of the day. And I'm a very happy Lion. I've gained at least a 20 pound belly by the end of the day. I can get out of bed only with the help of my powers.

By the end of my pregnancy I will have gained 80 pounds. And am really uncomfortable. Giving birth to our son is pure agony to me. We have found our new home. A beautiful lush and tropically climated world. It has a population of anthros such as Uncle and I. Uncle has a mate now too. A young Tiger who adores him, and is pregnant with Uncle's cub.

I wake one morning and I cannot stand up. My guts feel like they're bursting. Wu Shen is trying to keep me calm and he lays me on my back with my legs propped up. I don't remember much of the actual birthing. So much pain and blood and my Wu Shen tending me very lovingly. The only part of it that seems real to me is when he puts our first son into my arms. He looks just like a little Wu Shen Long. But he has my Amber eyes. By instinct I put him to my breast when he whimpers and he does nurse. Rather greedily in fact. Wu Shen is very happy now. We have a comfortable life. And we will breed once a year for the first thirty years of our life together. Our sons have been all Dragons. Uncle has had three Tiger cubs by his love.

Our sons do develop quickly and are mature adults by age 7. And at age 15 they are sexually mature. Despite being brothers, they begin to pair up and breed on their own. And by our thirty fifth year, we have a thriving colony of Sun Dragons. Wu Shen is a good father. And we are a happy little group. Most of our sons do show some versions of my powers. But they are all as strong and invulnerable as their Dragon father.

We slow our own breeding a lot. Birthing them is much easier for me now. I'll continue to have a son every ten years or so, but they are breeding fairly quickly. We are as a big, happy, thriving family. I love all of my sons. And I'm happy they are all Sun Dragons. They love their Sire and their Birth father a lot. We're a loving colony of Sun Dragons.

Our lives are happy and we are content. Wu Shen Long loves me more each day it seems. And I am happy to be his mate. He has shown me more love than I could have dreamed of. On our hundredth anniversary, Wu Shen and I return to Earth for a while. Earth has progressed while we both were away. And it is interesting. But I long to be home again, with our sons. We are the proud parents of the Chinese Sun Dragon species now. My sons and their sire are the only ones. But they number in the hundreds now. A few mated pairs have left us to bring their species out into the universe.. They have some Lion in them but for all intents and purposes they are as their sire. And I'm happy that way. From war and death has come a renewal of life. Kind of the way it should be.
