Jeff awoke one early October morning to a phone call. He looked at the clock and realized it was three in the morning.

He yawned and picked up the phone that insisted on waiting for his hands arrival.

"This better be good," he said.

"Bravo-tango-6-6-6," a voice said.

Jeff was a scientist in the fields of genetic manipulation and had degrees in instinctive and behavioral science. Jeff also had been working on a degree in alternative communication. As an expert in his fields he worked on many government projects and was quite hi on the clearance list. He new that the code was an emergency situation but with military intelligence everything is an emergency, so why hurry.

"Bravo-delta-0-3-0," Jeff replied hanging up the phone.

He figured if they wanted him bad enough to send him on a long trip they could wait thirty minutes for him to get up. He got out of bed and dressed in a dressy pair of pants and a suit shirt. He grabbed a prepacked suitcase and his laptop bag and waited for them to arrive. A helicopter landed on his back lawn and two men in camouflage came to the back door. They of course had their M-16s drawn and looked around for who knows what before I was aloud to walk to the chopper.

"You guys just don't understand how to be subtle do you," he laughed as they escorted him into the helicopter.

The helicopter took off and the suburban neighborhood returned to sleep after a short time of confusion. He knew there was something different about this one, a feeling in his gut. After two hours of flight they reached Akon Air force base. Jeff realized he was actually called to study something substantial when he saw the base on red alert. Normally if there was an emergency, as they called it anyway, he was driven to the base and would end up just losing sleep over some stupid artifact they had found and none of there so called scientists could figure out. Of course when the military is involved there is always overkill; it was like killing a mosquito with a MIRV.

Jeff's helicopter landed and a jeep drove him the whole seventy-five feet to the over protected hanger or so he thought. Inside were fragments of some strange metal and parts to he didn't know what. Then he saw a strange pod that a basketball player could comfortably sleep in. Jeff walked over to an elevator and saw his old friend john standing there waiting.

"John it's been a couple of years since you called me for anything like this, so what did they find?" Jeff said.

"I figured you had me called in, I was working on an aircraft carrier in the pacific," John answered.

They walked into the elevator and pressed their authorization codes and retina scans into the panels. The elevator doors closed and they went down a quarter mile into the secret research facility. A general that they had both worked with in the past met them at the door and brought them to an office.

"Gentlemen its time I told you why you were called in. Six hours ago an unidentified aircraft appeared in our air space and crashed only a mile from this base. In the wreckage we found a single survivor and have come to the conclusion that we are dealing with aliens. I have two full teams at the crash site picking up and covering every speck of evidence we can find. I have been instructed to call the best there is and employ them so here you are," the general said.

"John I need you to cover security. I want this place locked down so tight a cockroach is going to need a security pass to breed. My men and any equipment you need just ask for it's at your disposal," the general said.

"I understand sir," John replied.

"Now Jeff, I called you in to lead the research team, I want you to find out everything possible about this creature and what it is doing here. I also need some way to communicate with it if possible. I will give you any equipment, facilities, and people you want," the general said.

Jeff smiled, "Good, now this is how I want it, I want full authority over this project, I pick my own people and I want no soldiers in my area unless I call for them myself or John believes it absolutely necessary."

"Its a deal as long as I get updates and data," the general said.

"Deal," Jeff replied.

Jeff took a pen and pad out and wrote the names of four people that he new he could work with and that were all friends of his, "This is my team, I need them picked up and brought here tomorrow and our research will begin as soon as John is done with the modifications to the observation cell on level 31."

"Great, now I'll have private Sanchez here bring you to the isolation room the creature is being kept in," the general said.

Jeff was led to a chamber with a large window. He saw a beautiful creature in a skin-tight rubber looking suit and gloves. He guessed it was a female by the large mounds on her chest that he figured were breasts. She had beautiful gold scales and a small but thick mane of hair that ran down her back. Two men in contamination suits took samples of her hair, scales, and blood. The large but thin female laid on a large bed and her tail moved gently back and forth. A forked tongue lay just out of the lips and she seemed quite comfortable. One of the men left with the samples to the lab while the other went to open her mouth. I guess to get a sample of her saliva.

The female woke up and jumped back towards the wall with amazing agility. Jeff stood in amazement as she transformed before there eyes becoming a long thick snake with the head of a cobra and the tail of a rattler. Her head flaps glistened in the lights as did her fangs. The slick body slid out of the suit and coiled in the corner. The man inside made a fatal mistake as he ran in fear to the table to grab a tranquilizer gun. The creatures' rattle sang in the silence as she hissed fiercely. Green venom dripped from her fangs. The man went to point the gun at her and she quickly lunged forward gripping his entire shoulder with her mouth. He twitched for a moment and then dropped to the floor in convulsions. She quickly moved back to the corner and coiled back up. The Sanchez lifted his M-16 as he was out of other ideas and took aim. Jeff told him to put down the gun and get john and his team down here now. He then walked to the door and slowly and cautiously walked in taking one deep breath. He stood at the door his sweat giving away how nervous he was and took off his lab coat. He wore a shirt and pair of suit pants that made it obvious that he carried no weapons. Her eyes watched him as he moved towards the body on the floor slowly and with his arms spread to show he was harmless. She stopped hissing as there eyes met and she could tell he meant her no harm. Something in her eyes hypnotized him for a moment and he stood frozen for what seemed like an eternity. He could tell by the look in her eyes that she killed the man in self-defense and would not attack unless provoked. Amazed he noticed that her venom stopped dripping and she closed her mouth then her rattle stopped.

Jeff was brought out of his trance by a light knock at the door. He dragged the body to the door and closed it behind him after he gave the body to john. He then sat on the bed and held out his hand trying to remain calm as he took long deep breaths. She moved forward slowly and ran her tongue across his hand. She seemed satisfied and slithered up next to him and he breathed slowly and stayed calm. She felt oddly calm and reassured by his taste and coiled loosely around him. Getting daring he slowly ran his hand down the side of her face. She just looked into his eyes as if to say I trust you. There silence was broke when he heard a voice from the other side of the glass.

"Jeff are you ok, what do you want me to do," john yelled opening the door.

The snake started to rattle and quickly slithered behind him hissing and showing her fangs.

"I'm ok John, I want you to move your men out of the hall and I want you to open the door when I get ready to come out," Jeff said in a soft tone as he slowly stood.

With his hands in plane site above his head he slowly turned around and faced the creature. She was still hissing and rattling but made no movements towards him. He slowly reached his hand out and her mouth closed. He didn't know why but he was confident that she would not hurt him.

"SSShhh, SSShhhh, calm down, no one wants to hurt you," he said softly.

Jeff reached over and gently rubbed her underbelly as he spoke in a soft tone. Her rattle stopped moving and her pose became more relaxed. She came down from her tall pose on the bed and coiled gently around him again. Unfortunately one of the men was trigger-happy and went to take a shot through the observation window. The bullet didn't penetrate the bulletproof glass easily deflecting it but the noise was enough to startle her and she bit Jeff instinctively. She quickly came to her senses and quickly bit him again as he went into convulsions on the ground. John all but shot the man and he was relieved of duty. Worried she didn't inject an anti-venom quick enough she watched and listened closely to see if his heart beat slowed. When he seemed more stable she wrapped her tail around him and slithered to the door. She gently sat him next to the door and slithered to the far corner and with her head buried in her coils. John quickly went into the room and dragged him out.

"What happened," Jeff said as he started to wake.

"I'm sorry Jeff, one of the men freaked and took a shot at the creature and it bite you when it heard the sound. The good news is the docs say that she injected anti-venom in you when she came to her senses. Why did she want you alive?" John said.

"I think she likes me, she doesn't seem to consider me a threat but I'm not sure why," Jeff said.

John laughed, "So as usual the ladies just seem to like you, I guess that ones a life saver."

"Were is she now?" Jeff said realizing what time it was.

"We moved her to the observation deck and she immediately curled into a ball in the corner when she woke up. Anytime someone makes a move near the door it spits some type of acid at the floor in front of us. We hit the thing with almost a dozen different tranquilizers before it fell asleep."

Jeff massaged his aching neck were her fangs had penetrated. Jeff and john talked a bit about the modifications to the cell and the creature and Jeff went down to the lab to see what his colleges had found from the samples. Her genetic makeup was as perfect as her looks and she had the ability to release a large variety of venoms. Nothing revealed what allowed her to shape change but he didn't care at that point. Jeff went down to the cell and looked into the carpeted area through the window. He saw her in a corner still in a ball and shivering lightly. Jeff called to John on the intercom and told him to bring a large sun lamp to the cell and leave it outside the door. Jeff took a deep breath and walked into the holding area with a bit more confidence this time. He couldn't tell were exactly she had moved to but could hear her rattle. He laid his lab coat and his jacket on the floor and laid flat waiting for her to move. She slowly slithered out from the corner and circled around him. He stayed still and she started to move close. He figured she was cold blooded and that she was probably freezing. Jeff knew he was right when she slithered next to him and her cold body rubbed against his warm arms. He sat up and smiled as she gently wrapped her coils around him for warmth. She rubbed her neck affectionately against his face to show that she was thankful for his body heat. She started rubbing her head against his neck were she had bitten him and he took it as an apology. Jeff knew she only did it in self-defense and smiled reassuring her that he understood.

Jeff looked in her eyes, "I know you can talk, maybe not my language but you are an intelligent creature and I will keep you safe until I can finally talk to you and make you feel a bit better. I don't blame you for biting me and I understand you're scared."

He slowly rubbed her long body with his hand. He could tell by the tensing of her muscles that she liked his touch even though she was nervous. I wonder what she's thinking he thought to himself. Then he got feelings of hunger, cold, and fear as they washed over his mind. He looked at her eyes again and realized that she was at least partially empathic. He stood up and started to walk to the door she allowed him to move and just coiled into a ball on his coat to watching him. She didn't hiss or make aggressive sounds and he smiled. A few minutes past and John arrived with a sun lamp. John didn't even want to ask why he had become crazy enough to walk into the room with that thing and didn't really care. Jeff thanked John and walked at a normal pace back into the room. He plugged the lamp in and turned it on. He motioned her over and she curled into a ball baking under the warmth of the lamp. Jeff walked over and sat next to her. She quickly laid against him and fell asleep happy to be warm and feeling safe. Jeff got up at his normal pace no longer afraid of her and walked out the door.

He continued his work for days as they did there research. She was very cooperative as long as Jeff did the close work and collection of samples and he would stay in the room to make her feel comfortable when he sensed she was nervous. Jeff noticed that her needs and feelings were becoming easier for him to pick up as time went on. Jeff was the only one allowed in the chamber and he took care of the food and cleaned up after her. He would visit almost every night while everyone slept and talked to her. One day he decided to bring her suit to her and she let it lay in the corner. That evening when he went to her he was given a pleasant surprise. She had transformed back into her semi-humanoid form and had put on her suit. Jeff was taken by surprise when she spoke to him in an almost perfect and fluent manner.

"I've wanted to thank you for your kindness and your protection. I know you are stunned so I will explain. I am a scientist from a place far away from here. My world has been exploring the universe for some time and we have taken an interest in studying other cultures. Unfortunately a meteorite damaged my ship, when I was leaving the atmosphere and I had to make a crash landing back on the planet. I'm sorry I haven't spoke earlier but I wasn't sure how your world governments would react to a creature that had been studying its inner workings. I thought I might be killed if they knew how much of your culture and technology I learned. My race has been getting ready to approach earth for peace talks. They were waiting for me to come back with knowledge before the approach. Although peaceful my race is quite hideous to your people and I fear they will fire on a diplomatic vessel if one comes. I have three weeks before a vessel is supposed to rendezvous with me behind Jupiter, now I fear they will go ahead with the diplomatic talks and give your race the next steps in technology. If this happens your race will have the ability to create an inexhaustible power source," she continued.

"But what's so bad about that," he said curious.

"Unfortunately the same technology could be used to create weapons of sufficient power to destroy planets and I have found that governments would create such abominations," she said worried.

Jeff sat and listened as she told the story about her research mission and her crash landing. He found her name was jazzel and that she was as intelligent as she was beautiful. She knew what most military governments would of done to her and she thanked him for caring about her. Jazzel also apologized for not turning back into her reptile form so she could have talked to him all the times he kept her company.

"No really I understand I wouldn't want you to worry about me, But I think your wrong I don't find you hideous. I think you look wonderful," Jeff said.

"Actually the reason I didn't change was because I've never been considered a very good looking female and it has made me a bit shy," she replied sadly.

"I think you look great," he said a little embarrassed.

Jazzel smiled, "Thank you, I like the way you look too."

Jazzel walked to him and held him in her arms. She was much larger than him and his head rested on her breasts when she hugged him.

"I wish there was a way to get you out of here, I don't want you to be stuck here for the rest of your life while people stick needles in you and study you. You deserve better than that," he said as he hugged her back.

"Wait a minute maybe there is a way to get you out of here, Why didn't I think of it before John leads the security team and he knows this base inside and out," he said happily.

The next day he talked to john about the female and wanting to help her. John thought he was crazy until Jeff brought him to see Jazzel the next evening. After john came out of being stunned they all talked and John could tell the two of them had become close. He agreed to help them and came up with a plan. They found a way to get her to the heating ducts and set the path up to make it look like she would have slithered into the wilderness. Jazzel could hide in his room and wait for the heat to cool down. Jeff was happy to ask her if she would mind living with him at home until he could find something better for her. She happily accepted and the plan went off without a hitch.

After three days of searching in the forest around the base the scientist were told to go home and Jazzel was sneaked into the large crate of stuff that went back to his house. After the crate was in Jeff's' garage he opened it and let jazzel into the house, Jeff turned up the heat so Jazzel could warm up and she was more than happy to lye on the couch next to him until she was warm. Jazzel then got up and started to look around the house.

"I was wondering," she asked as she walked around the house curiously, "Do you have a mate?"

Jeff smiled, "no I have been alone for quite sometime it can be hard to find a woman that likes people like me."

Jazzel walked over to him and kissed his cheek. Jeff looked at her and pulled her head down so he could kiss her. He loved the way she looked and her breath was fresh and had a wonderful scent. He liked the way her skin felt as he rubbed her tail and kissed her again. Jazzel picked up Jeff and held him close as they kissed she was glad he liked her.

"I think I've fallen in love with you," He said as he hugged Jazzel.

"I know you love me and I love you too, I've known since the day you entered the cell and looked in my eyes" Jazzel smiled.

Jazzel undid the zipper like device that held her suit on and laid it on the floor.

"I've wanted to be with you for a long time," Jazzel said lifting Jeff's hand to her large firm plumb breasts. Jeff led her to the bedroom and she started to undo his shirt buttons. He had wanted Jazzel for quite some time and had hoped she liked him in the same way. Jazzel wrapped her tail around his waist and lifted him o0ff the ground. He laughed as she put him down onto the bed. She turned into her snake form and slithered onto the bed her body flowing over him and rubbed against him as he lye still and just felt her scales against his skin. It was a wonderful feeling and her tongue would occasionally taste him. Jazzel changed forms again and was now next to him kissing his neck. She suddenly stopped and changed back.

Jeff wondering what she was up to and opened his eyes to see her just as she slithered out the bedroom door. He ran out the door wondering what was going on and he saw her tail as it entered the heating duct. He sat in front of the duct wondering what he'd done. As he rubbed his hand on his neck he came across the scars from her bite. Could she be afraid of hurting me he thought. Jeff sat for hours waiting for her to come back out. Jazzel finally came out and transformed in her suit.

"Are you ok? Did I do something wrong?" Jeff asked concerned.

"No, I just can't forgive myself for hurting you that day," A tear ran down her cheek.

Jeff walked over and hugged Jazzel, "I never blamed you for that besides you saved my life, and I don't want you to feel bad it could have happened to anyone."

They sat on the couch and watched some TV before they fell asleep. Morning came and they woke up to a phone call. Jeff answered the phone and talked to John who was checking to see how everything was going. Jazzel walked to the kitchen and started to cook some food she thought smelled good. Jeff came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her. Jazzel raised her tail and rubbed his inner thigh.

"So did you sleep well?" Jeff asked as he took a long relaxing breath.

"I slept great and I'm sorry about last night," Jazzel said.

"I love you and I can wait until your ready," Jeff answered as he moved his hand along her tail following it to the base. Jazzel let out a sigh of pleasure and comfort as she turned and hugged him. The two of them sat and ate breakfast. Jazzel went over to a heat duct as the heat came on. Jeff knew she was still not warm enough and asked if she would like to take a shower. Jeff led her to the shower and went to leave but Jazzels tail wrapped around his waist and pulled him back.

"I think I would prefer some company in the shower if you can spare the time," Jazzel smiled.

"I think I can accommodate you in that task," Jeff said as he rubbed the long firm tail in his hand.

Jeff started the shower making it almost to hot to accommodate him as Jazzel took off her suit and proceeded to take of his pants from behind. She gently slide her hand into his underwear and felt him harden under her touch. She slid down the underwear and he stepped out of them. Jeff slowly got into the water and adjusted to the heat. It was much warmer than he was used to but he wanted Jazzel to be comfortable. Jazzel got into the shower and knelt in front of him. She then stroked his manhood while she cupped his sac in her other hand. He closed his eyes and moaned as he felt her muzzle close around him and she gently started to suck. Jazzel increased her pace and Jeff could only rub her back with his hands as he moaned and slowly thrusted his hips forward. Her technique was flawless and he felt his balls starting to constrict. He let out a loud moan and grabbed the bars at his sides as he unloaded into her muzzle. Jazzel swallowed his hot seed and licked her lips. Jeff took a few seconds to catch his breath and then ran his hands up and down her chest. Jazzel lowered herself slightly and Jeff started to suckle one of Jazzels plump breasts. He massaged the breast and nipped her nipple getting a small moan as a reward. Jazzel turned around and gripped the bar with her hands. She wrapped her tail around Jeff and brought him close to her.

"I want you Jeff, please take me," she said in lust.

Jeff caressed her with his hands, running them from her tail to her inner thigh. She let out a moan of pleasure as he dipped a finger into her and tasted it. He moved his member to her opening and slowly entered her. She was tight and she flexed her muscles gripping him. He couldn't believe how enjoyable she was and she felt the same about him. They thrusted in rhythm and moaning as he increased his pace. As they reached climax Jazzel gripped his penis hard with her vagina and let out a roar. He came with the pleasure from her grip and she felt his wonderfully hot seed warm her inner most depths. They stayed connected for a little while as there breathing slowed. Jazzel finally allowed him to slide out and lifted him for a kiss. The doorbell rang and Jeff quickly jumped out of the shower grabbing a towel. Jazzel changed to her other form and hid in the bottom of the tub as the water poured over her. Jeff opened the door dripping wet and talked to the neighbor that had heard Jazzels roar of passion. After telling the neighbor that it was a movie on TV he left and Jeff went back to the bathroom. Jeff walked into the bathroom and saw Jazzel drying herself off.

"I guess I better soundproof the house," he said trying not to laugh.

"I feel so stupid," Jazzel said embarrassed.

After drying, Jeff and Jazzel lay on the bed and hugged each other snuggling close. The next week went by and Jeff helped Jazzel build a device that would allow her to communicate with her races ship before they came into the atmosphere. Jazzel seemed sad and Jeff could tell something was wrong.

"Jazzel is something wrong?" he asked one evening as they lay on the couch.

"When my people come they'll want me to leave but I want to stay here with you," Jazzel said hugging him tight.

"I guess I could come with you if your people won't mind," Jeff smiled.

"You would leave everything behind just to be with an ugly lizard," Jazzel said.

"No," He said happily, "But I would for a beautiful lizard that I fell in love with," he kissed her as a tear ran down her cheek.
