Chapter 7 Yautja Who?
(( Note: thanks to all of you who are reviewing especially "M" your reviews are helpful, and very much appreciated, thanks for reading. Also as for the titles… well they make sense when I wrote it… or it was in my head… but don't count on it for any sort of forewarning to the chapter))
Rei-koe felt he waited an appropriate amount of time before deciding it was time to meet the new guest. He moved to the entrance while Sharp tended to the ship.
Upon spotting the older male Rue-n' rolled his eyes, taking off his helmet he turned to the female.
"This is Rei-koe, the one I told you about… my Sire's friend"
The girl smiles, "Hello, my name's Echo" she speaks in a soft, sweet, respectful voice. She takes note of his graying tresses and older look. He was chocolate colored with black spots and had prudent features.
"Ah, my boy knows how to pick em eh?" Rei-koe winks at Echo, then pauses studying her. "What did you say you were?" he asks pointedly.
"Alright alright" Rue-n' growls and directs Echo away from the other male. He leads her into another room. It wasn't big but there was a bed and storage areas for weapons, armor, and trophies. It didn't much matter though, soon they would be home and their new life could begin. Finally, it was the way things were before, Echo was nestled in Rue-n's lap, and the two enjoyed each other's company. However a question hung in the air.
"Why were you-"
"Why did you-" both started.
Pausing Rue-n' nodded to the girl, telling her to go first.
"Why were you acting so distant?" he looks away fearing the answer.
"Because you were" he says truthfully.
"I was because you were" Echo halts, already knowing it sounded silly. "I figured you didn't want me around me around after we mated, since you still insisted on bringing me home," she explains.
Now it was Rue-n's time to feel silly, he remembered that she would have different customs and rituals from him and forgot to take that into account. "I was only bringing you home, because I thought you wouldn't want to stay… I thought your attraction to me was only your heat"
The girl furrowed her eyebrows and pursed her lips.
"It had nothing to do with my heat…" She said softly, and to prove it she turned and straddled his waist. Echo wrapped her arms around the male's neck and kissed his forehead once before looking him square in the blue eyes that haunted her. "Yes, I might not have mated with you so soon had it not been for my… condition… but that doesn't change how I feel about you"
"And how is that?" he asks playfully.
She pauses thinking, "I want to be your mate… not once… forever" she collapsed herself into his body nuzzling his chest. "I'm glad you came for me" she murmured into the pinkish skin of his stomach.
Gingerly she laid him on his back, all the while continuing to kiss around his pink belly.
"I love this spot" she tells him, greedily kissing the area above his navel which sported a diamond of black spots, and she seemed determined to kiss all of them.
Rue-n' responded by lovingly stroking her hair.
A voice sounded over the intercom interrupting the couple, "Those of you involved with Ooman pets better get finished because we're landing soon"
"Oh Sharp!" Rue-n' growls.
"That was pretty quick" Echo comments.
"Well I said it was on the way… it's actually the closest yautja port to your planet," Rue-n' answers.
Echo nods, showing her understanding.
Rue-n' shifts his body and makes the girl look at him, "Now I might have told you, My kind hunts your kind and will most likely frown on me taking you on as a mate, So officially you will have to be classified as my pet" he awaits her reaction. What he got surprised him.
"If that's how it has to be I can't object"
He clicks at her with amusement, "you truly are a strange female"
"So you say" she responds with a smile. "Shall we head to the exit?" she asks.
"Yes… oh wait" Rue-n' grabs something off of his belt, and holds it for her to see. It was a black strip of fabric but had tale tell signs of internal mechanics.
"A collar?" she asks.
He nods, "sorry, you only need to keep it on when you're out of our quarters," he doesn't make eye contact, "it has a translator, and can read your vital signs" he continues.
Again Echo surprises him. She turns around before him allowing him the opportunity to fasten the collar around her neck. He takes it and once it was in place around her collar he allowed his hands to move down her shoulders and came to rest on her waist holding her to him.
The door opens to reveal Rei-koe in the opening. "Sharp's getting annoying, you two better get out here soon" he says.
"Oh fine" Rue-n' pouts.
At the entrance of the ship Echo spots a male she hadn't met yet. She assumed it was the one Rue-n' called Sharp.
He certainly appeared older then Rue-n' but his 'dreads' weren't graying like Rei-koe's were. His skin was a Carmel color and his eyes were different colors. Echo wondered if her crimson mate was an oddity where he was from.
"Um, hi… we haven't met… My name's Echo" she smiles at him.
Having been distracted by his thoughts Sharp jumps slightly.
"Oh yes, hello, I'm Sharp" he says with a knowing grin. "You better take good care of little Rue-n'" he chuckles, and Echo nods with a smile.
As soon as the doors open, however, Sharp was attacked. All Echo saw was a blur of Cinnamon, and Sharp was on the ground.
"Oh hello my little Da'dtou-di" Sharp says nuzzling the girl who had him pinned to the metal surface of the ship.
"That's Tre-a' Sharp's mate" Rue-n' answers the girl's silent question, appearing at her side.
Echo makes sure to stay as close to Rue-n' as possible. She understood these creatures were ones you didn't want to mess with and certainly didn't want to try.
Rue-n', sensing the girls apprehension, wrapped an arm around her shoulder and held her to his body, purring softly.
"Hey there Tre-a'" Rei-koe greats the female with a smile, as they have finally made it to their feet, the girl waves over Sharps shoulder.
"Sharp boy, how 'bout you and the little lady come over for dinner tonight- Oh no you don't!" Rei-koe addresses the scarlet Yautja who, with his new mate, was trying to sneak off.
"Oh come on we just got back," Rue-n' protests, desperately wanting some alone time with his new mate.
"I'm not dealing with the ladies on my own, you're coming, besides they'll want to meet your new… pet" Rei-koe winks.
Echo rolls her eyes in response but remains attached to Rue-n's side. By the time attention had returned to Sharp and his mate they had vanished leaving Rue-n' and Echo in the hot seat.
"Fine, we'll come but, only after we get situated" Rue-n' compromises with a defeated growl.
"Fair enough," Rei-koe shrugs, "I'll be expecting you in about three hours, don't be late or I'll send She-I after you!" Rue-n' nudges Echo away from the elder male but is still able to hear the threat Rei-koe calls after them.
The couple makes their way to Rue-n's residence without incident and Echo bounces inside eager to explore.
"It's not much but," Rue-n' starts.
"I'm very happy to be here" Echo smiles finishing for the male. She liked the idea of having a real home, with love and someone happy to see her at the end of the day. It wasn't like that for her on Earth, and she was eager to start over.
Rue-n' left the female to her exploration of her new home and busied himself unpacking. It all seemed to happen so fast and Rue-n' couldn't quite figure out how he felt about it all. Happy of course, but he felt he should be feeling something different. Eventually he just decided to put it out of his mind.
It was about time to leave so the crimson yautja decided he should go find his new pet.
Upon entering the sleeping quarters he found the girl curled up on his pillow, seemingly fixated on something. She was awake and wasn't crying so Rue-n' found himself wondering what she was up to. He moved over to her and sat on the bed.
"What are you doing silly girl?" He asks amusement apparent in his voice.
She looks up from the pillow, child like smile on her face, "it smells like you" she giggles.
Rue-n' raises a brow in a questioning manor.
"It's almost time to go, you should get dressed" He tells her.
"Hm, okay" Echo moved to the male, licking his shoulder, "what would you like me to wear?" she asks playfully.
"Nothing" he purrs.
"Hm… how about we do that later… I don't want to make a bad impression with your friends" she bounces off the bed and pulls out the jewel known to hold her cloths.
Once the chest appears she begins to rifle through it.
Rue-n' watched her for a bit enjoying the view of her shapely ass as she bent over the chest. Shaking himself out of it he left to gather his belongings.
Echo Drew out a red kimono style top with gold colored edges and put it on over a long sleeved dark red dress and toped it off with a corset of the same shade of red as the under dress.
Once dressed Echo turns to see Rue -n's reaction but finds herself alone. Pouting she left in search of the male.
She found him in the main living area, he was dressing and the girl found herself completely mesmerized by his body. He didn't appear to be wearing much and Echo wondered if she would be over dressed and considered changing.
"Are you ready my pet?" he looks back at her smiling in his alien way.
"When you are honey" she bounds over to him wrapping her arms around his waist from behind. Apparently both decided to embrace the 'pet' idea and turn it into a sort of romantic term.
"I hope you're ready" he purrs at her
"As long as I have you" Echo kisses his shoulder her hands idly stroking his light colored abdomen.
**note: yeah another happy ending… and it's short but I couldn't go into the next part in this one or it would be insanely long… and in my defense this is the third chapter I've gotten up this week… so I think I get some slack…
Also when I say something like Rue-n' smiled… I mean in the way he can… although if you go by my style of drawing them I give 'em mouths… since I draw them… less realistically and much cuter because I can't help it…
So we've met 2 new characters and there are more to come… let me know if I confuse you… or if you want to know more about a specific character… and if I happen to make a mistake with anything Yautja related… well I can always claim creative convince… but be sure it's not because I'm trying to make it mary-sue…
Thank you and happy reading ^_^
