The Daisy Chronicles 3 :Dreams

Ah, How nice it was, to run across the field, a calf's spindly legs under me as I race the wind! Running around Mama, I skid to a halt, hiding from my friend, who lost track of me in our race, my Lungs burning I pant to catch my breath, before Mama Lows and licks me, reminding me its my meal time, and I tuck my head under her body and my mouth finds her udder, I pull on the teat, nuzzling Mama's udder to get her milk to drop from her mammaries, and soon is rewarded with the teat in my mouth swelling as the creamy goodness touches my tongue, a suck greedily, knowing its my life if I do not, and Mama has plenty of milk to give. My tummy is filled and having switched nipples a couple of times, I am satisfied, and take a nap next to Mama's proud form, one I will duplicate soon.

I wake up from the dream, it was so nice, and as usual, I'm cuddled against Daisy the cow's side in the room we are sharing. The calf she carries seems to wake also, moving sluggishly but there, how odd to feel such a thing as I hug the pregnant curve of Daisy's barrel. From the size of the calf within, I know it won't be long until she drops it, though I'm not a veterinarian, so could be wrong by months. Either way I think I will miss this as I fly to the stars. We humans have such a drive to seek out alien life, yet here I am touching another terran species, and finding much in the contact. I had not talked or spoken to another Human in days now, unless the Teledrones accompanying us qualified as human. The Androids were creepily human, but remotely operated by a flesh and blood operator. So not truly intelligent, but borrowed a biological mind to appear so. The two I shared the room with were a Male and Female, with the Female being Daisy's Counterpart, the other Male one Rose's. I decided to get up as I had taken a shower with one cow yesterday, and did not want two cows in the Shower. There was room, but I'd not be able to maneuver my hoverchair in that space.

As I entered the showers, I saw Rose's Tele-Drone come online. The red gem he had embedded in his hand glowing as he started up. I shut the door behind me and resolved to hurry. Just as Rose's Red furred muzzle pushed the door open, I was finishing with the last places to wash, as she entered the shower, followed by a nude Tele-Rose. Good Lord! If he looked impressive in a butler outfit, now he looked like he belonged to a troupe of professional weightlifters. I had to stare, but shook myself out of it, and concentrated on finishing my own shower, knowing Daisy would soon follow. "Relax, Daisy is being milked, so will be a bit, come, help me with Rose here, and tell me about yourself." I nodded, and maneuvered my hoverchair, alongside Rose, where I could wash her back and flanks. "Where to start? I was orphaned at 8 years old, and sent to a Boarding school connected to Auroch Specialties before graduating and heading to College. I enjoyed physical activities as a way to break the stress, and Skateboarded often until I had the accident that did this to me."

Tele-Rose looked up at me, cleaning Rose's back end "Hmm interesting, but what are you proudest of, what defines you as a person? I know your college years were productive, and you did not waste your time there. But that single mindedness may have dulled your enjoyment in life perhaps?" I wondered if Rose's operator had a psych evaluation in front of him, likely the one I had to undergo for being rated for spaceflight. I answered him "That single mindedness will serve Auroch Specialties well, and if we make it to an empty world, I won't be crushed by loneliness as we explore the world. What I am proudest of though, is a moment when I was 17, and there was a incident where a man had lost hope, and had taken the group hostage. He had one of the deadlier beam weapons, pretty much guaranteed everyone there a slow death via radiation nanites or no. I recognized it as one of the dead man kind, where if the authorities disabled the man, it would detonate, doing uncontrolled damage. I spoke to him of hope, that the lives here did not have to share the pain he was going through. And here I was, telling a Middle aged man of me having lost my parents, that my family was so sparse or uncaring that only myself showed up for their funeral representing the family. My pain, his pain, only we can know our own demons, but inflicting pain on others only caused more pain, not lessened his. And he ended up letting us go. He took his own life in the end, he had committed murder, and the penalty was clear, but I think he had regained a bit of humanity before what drove him to that sad end that consumed him at the end. I was credited with saving 23 people, and 3 unborn that day. And that unplanned conversation, is the moment I was proudest of. Though if we step onto another planet, that would likely eclipse that" I say this, scrubbing along Rose's front shoulders and neck. My fingers just starting to turn pruny with water saturation.

"Good Answer." Tele-Rose said in his baritone voice, not affected at all by being swiped by Rose's tail, as we washed her of the last of the soap. I said "Yeah, it was a memorable day, but if I was going to die, I wanted to understand why. It was surprising just how little we humans listen to each other." The water turned off, and Tele-Rose started to towel down both of us. His nude body was very anatomically correct. I was attracted to Tele-Daisy's female form, but his strength, and power was comforting to me, and my broken body. I find myself wanting to meet the person behind Tele-Rose and share a meal before skating with them, if they could. Tele-Rose just seemed the kind of person that even if you did not see them, you would be affected by his charisma. In this matching Daisy's Compassionate nature. Guess that was why they were a couple. We three exited together, but Tele-Rose walked over to where Daisy was, and helped finish Daisy's Milking. Leaving me with Rose. The Cow radiated a different vibe than Daisy's pleased nature. She seemed like she was looking into things, like she was far more clever than I was, and knew it. An odd vibe from a cow, to be sure. But it wasn't truly predatory. Like being around a Large aggressive breed dog I suppose, Rose knew she was powerful and strong. And thus, did not need to show off. And like being in the presence of a powerful dog, and knowing you were accepted by them, I was not afraid of Rose either.

I approached Rose, whose wet nose whuffed my face. My hoverchair did not let me reach around her, but I moved alongside her, placing my hand on her shoulder. As she looked at me, I looked into those eyes, so inhuman, yet feeling like there was some connection there, like Rose was looking into me as much as I was her, before Rose broke the look, and walked over to where she and Daisy Slept and ate. I sighed, ready for breakfast, as the milker popped off of Daisy, and Tele-Daisy applied the lotion to soothe the teats. As Daisy stepped off of the milking platform, Tele-Daisy started "Oh! I forgot your breakfast!" And had such a look of contrition that I laughed, not noticing Daisy walking over to Rose, until I happened to look that way. Rose Licked Daisy's muzzle as they stood side by side. I wondered if there was a Cow social order, and this licking was part of enforcing it, or it was a sign of connections. Either way, it was cute. And soon, I was looking at Grits and a Sausage, Egg, and Cheese sandwich, with pancakes serving as bread in this case. The Cheese was American this time. Sweet, and textureless. It blended in with the sausage, egg, and Pancakes, giving the whole a satisfying flavor. And of course, Milk was available to drink. In bulk if necessary.

I finished my meal, as the Daisy's showered, and Rose was milked, and indeed I was done in time to help massage Rose's udder, comparing it to Daisy's as My hands rubbed the lotion into her skin. Daisy was slightly smaller, but had a lower hanging udder, where Rose had a heavier Udder overall, but carried it better with her larger frame. I found myself wanting to press my face in that softness, to feel the milk fall into her teats. But I had not completely lost my mind, and my hoverchair would not allow me to do so anyway. As the Milker disengaged, and I rubbed lotion on Rose's teats, I daydreamed of being a calf, and suckling from this. Perhaps living with cows like this was affecting me somewhat, but seeing I was soon to leave, I indulged, after all, soon I would be in interplanetary space, dreaming. If I dreamt of this, it would be a nice trip.

As we finished, Daisy appeared with the cart, and Tele-Daisy too. I had no idea how long it took to clone a human. It was something humanity had been doing for centuries, since the early 21st century, but creating a mental duplicate? That was new. I mated my hoverchair with the cart, and saying goodbye to Rose and Tele-Rose we were off. Tele-Daisy started the conversation off "I hope you don't mind, but I think your new body will take a couple of hours yet, so we have a few minutes to spend. In the outside case of this not working, is there someone you wish for us to contact?" I must have made a face because she continued, a bit defensively "We ARE planning for this to work, it's a very remote chance after all that it won't. We have been selling this service to the wealthy for a century now, and our acceptance rate is 96%, and the failures usually are due to some kind of brain damage, or injury. So relax, it's just a formality before we do any out of body experiences." She said the last, a bit mischievously, seeing she herself was out of her body, so to speak.

I gave the name of a couple of my skating friends, the kind of people who you WOULD want to send you off. Not some kind of crying and moping bunch, but the "Pour one out for my Homie" kind, to borrow a old saying. Our journey took longer this time, with a trip down a elevator, that had to take us well under the building. Mysterious, I thought, as the doors opened, and led us to the waiting room, where we sat, across from a elderly man I remembered from a commercial I had seen for a new type of hybrid solar/wind power generator. He was alone, and I struck up a conversation with him, nothing major, but soon he was called, leaving me and Daisy(s) alone. I asked "Have you went through this? If so, what's it like on the other end?" She shook her head, answering "I've never had to, but on the other hand, you may feel a bit dizzy at first. While your mind remembers how to do things, things like your inner ear, they take a bit to recalibrate. You also get the advantage of perfect hearing for your biology, versus the 30% hearing loss you currently suffer, Nail. So things may be brighter, and louder than you remember." As she finished, the attendant called my name, and Tele-Daisy smiled as the dreaded manual chair was pulled up, and Tele-Daisy picked me up, and set me within it;. Daisy the cow gave me a lick as I was wheeled by, I considered it good luck, as I felt something touch my arm, and soon, I knew nothing at all.

I dreamed even as my mind was ripped from my body I suppose. I dreamed of Soft meadows, where my hooves found no stones, and where other cows and their calves ran and played. Where the gaze of a strong bull sent spikes of pleasure down my body, as I felt the calf he had sired drinking from my udder. I did not question myself being a cow here, it was like who I was meant to be, here under a red sun, on an alien world where this was a moon around a gas giant whose form filled part of the daytime sky. A lovely combination of both of my desires of late, in harmony in the very best way. If these were my last thoughts, they were filled with love, as I licked the back of my calf as she drank her fill of me.
