Justice League of Amazons: Fire & Blood

Chapter 9

Everyone gathered on the Watchtower. Shayera sat at the monitor chair going through some images of the attack on the supply convoy by Intergang. She focussed on some images of Maria Contranetti or the Militant Comedienne as she styled herself.

"What I want to know is how the did this broad get her hands on a Power Ring," Karen spoke up as she looked at the images on the monitor screen. "Isn't there supposed to be some sort of requirement to use a power ring?" she said.

"Normally, yes," Shayera replied to Karen's question. "But obviously this Maria fit the requirement to use a power ring," she said as she brought up a photo of Maria in more casual attire.

"Here we are; Maria Contranetti, born in Brooklyn, New York, 1987 from a relatively poor family and had a fairly good education but showed signs of a distrust and hatred towards men in general. Attended feminist rallies in highschool and college and became an amateur comedienne where she voiced a feminist opinion."

"But obviously not a good sort," Mari stated rather than asked. "I remember going to a comedy club once and saw her perform; she was pretty toxic and full of herself," she said.

Shayera nodded and said, "Hence why she struggled to get gigs at comedy clubs. They obviously felt Maria's toxic stance on men wasn't good for ratings."

"She must've been ecstatic when Aresia unleashed her virus on the world," Zatanna said grimly.

"Probably, and I imagine some other women might have been as well," Shayera agreed.

"And now she has taken control of Intergang," Aegon said from his seat, cleaning his sword. "From what some of you told me of Intergang, having someone like this Maria as their leader is grim indeed."

"And what if Maria manages to find and ally herself with Aresia?" Dinah asked. "That alone is cause for alarm," she stated.

"Then we'd better start cracking down on Intergang. Find all the holes they're hiding in and wipe them out," Helena said.

"Won't be that easy, Huntress," Mari replied. "Intergang will have lots of connections, even with the loss of all men on the planet, they could still have some backer supporting them," she said.

"And they'll be targeting someone in particular," Kara said and she looked at Aegon knowingly. Aegon noticed everyone looking at him before saying, "If they want a fight with me, then let them come. They'll get three feet of cold hard steel in their guts before they take me."

"Well, can't fault ya for having the guts to face Intergang like that," Helena said dryly. "But either way, you're gonna need a security detail," she added.

"I can look after myself, Lady Huntress, I don't need a nursemaid," Aegon responded firmly.

"Please, Aegon? Will you do it for us? Just for our peace of mind?" Dinah asked sweetly. Aegon looked at the blonde for a long moment and Dinah then used a tried-and-true tactic nearly every woman used on men.

The Sad Puppy Eyes.

Aegon sighed irritably before saying, "Fine… if only for your peace of mind," he said gruffly.

"Knew you'd see it our way," Dinah said smugly.

"Of course, you did," Aegon muttered and he then looked at everyone and said, "So, who wants to be my bodyguard first?" he asked facetiously.

After some discourse among the women, it was decided that Power Girl who would be among the first to play bodyguard for Aegon. And Karen seemed pretty pleased with the fact that she would get to spend some quality time with Aegon first.

A day later.

Aegon entered Karen's Manhattan penthouse apartment with a bag holding some clothes and essentials. Blackfyre hung over Aegon's back in its sheath. Gazing around at the interior of Karen's apartment, Aegon noted the details of the place; it seemed spacious and yet cozy with simple furniture that looked as though it were handmade. That wasn't to say it looked bad, but their simple construction gave a homey feel to it as though you were out in the countryside.

"Make yourself at home," Karen said to him as she entered her apartment and almost immediately, an ginger furred cat came trotting out and meowed expectantly, staring up at Karen with green eyes.

"Hey, Stinky," Karen greeted the feline fondly as she picked up the animal and hugged it gently, stroking its ginger fur. "Did you miss me?" she asked sweetly to which the cat responded with a purr. The cat then noticed Aegon and a questioning look was in its eyes. Karen noticed her cat staring at Aegon and said to it, "This is a new friend, Stinky. Say hello to Aegon."

Looking over at Aegon, Karen said to him, "Come say hello." Aegon trudged forward, his gaze cautious as he reached out with one hand towards Karen's cat. Stinky stretched his head forward to sniff Aegon's fingers before rubbing his head against them giving out a happy purr.

"I think he likes you," Karen said with a pleased smile as her cat purred happily as Aegon then began to stroke the feline's head.

"He seems like a sweet thing, although I don't know why you would name him 'Stinky'," Aegon replied.

"You'll find out soon enough," Karen said to him as she set her cat down on the floor. "Let me show you around." She then took Aegon on tour of her home, starting by showing where he would be sleeping. Prior to Aegon coming, Karen had cleared the guestroom of her apartment as she had mostly used it as storage space but now that Aegon was staying with her for a little while, she had cleaned it out and set up the room for Aegon to make use of.

After showing Aegon his room, Karen then showed him the rest of her apartment such as where the facilities were and the fire exits if there was a need to use them. "This is quite a nice place you have here, Lady Karen," Aegon then said when the tour was finished. "Must be nice to have your own place all to yourself," he remarked.

"It is nice, but I do have Stinky here keeping me company," Karen said.

"Of course. I would not dare forget about Stinky," Aegon said. "But it is nice to have a place all to yourself I would imagine," he added. "Seven knows there are times where I wanted to have a place of my own with no-one else around."

"It is nice," Karen said nodding her head agreeably. "I can do whatever I want in my own apartment," she added with a slightly sinful smile on her face.

"Such as?" Aegon asked innocently.

"Oh, you know… walk around naked, that sort of thing," Karen replied with some amusement.

"I see…" Aegon said quietly. "But I imagine if one had a far lens they could spy on you through your windows," he added nodding his head over at the large windows.

"Tinted windows. No-one will be able to peek through them on the outside," Karen replied. "So, I can strip off all my clothes and walk around naked," she said with a giggle.

"I see, well far be it for to stop you," Aegon said awkwardly.

Karen gave a chuckle and said, "Relax. I'm not gonna strip right now in front of you. I'd need to get a couple of drinks in me first."

"Well, that is a relief to hear," Aegon said thankfully.

"Well, in case you've forgotten, we've both seen each other naked, remember?" Karen reminded him.

"I remember," Aegon nodded his head in confirmation.

"Just so you do," Karen said. "Now I could do with a shower," she added as she sniffed her armpit and her nose wrinkled. "Do you want to have the first shower? I can wait for mine," she offered.

"No, no, I couldn't, this is your home. You can take the first shower," Aegon answered.

"And you are a guest of mine. I would be a bad host if I did not let you have the first shower," Karen protested.

"Well, if you insist," Aegon said reluctantly as he headed towards the bathroom. Entering the bathroom, Aegon then stripped off his clothes and entered the shower bay turning the knob and water began to spray out of the showerhead and soon steam began to fill the room. After a few minutes washing himself, Aegon turned off the shower and grabbed a dry towel and dried himself then wrapped the towel around his waist before leaving the bathroom. Karen briefly nodded at him as she entered the bathroom to use it herself.

Aegon then headed for the guestroom where he dressed himself in some fresh clean clothes then what he had on before. After dressing himself, Aegon then headed out into the living room where he found Stinky curled up on the couch asleep. Deciding to see if there was anything worth watching on the TV, Aegon sat down and turned on the TV and found a news channel. The news report was made by Cat Grant who spoke at length of the Intergang attack on the supply convoy and a photograph of Maria Contranetti was shown with the request that if anyone had any information on Maria's whereabouts to bring it forth to authorities.

The news then switched over to Aegon's exploits which made Aegon's mood sour a little and he flipped channels and found nothing that interested him. Deciding to turn off the TV, Aegon sighed and looked out the window, gazing out across the isle of Manhattan. Then Aegon heard someone enter the living room. Turning around, Aegon's eyes widened a little as he saw Karen standing before him. To his relief, Karen wasn't naked, but she was dressed in a short black dress that one shoulder strap and the bottom of the dress just barely reached the middle of her thighs. The dress also seemed to push Karen's breasts up higher giving her a curvier appearance. Karen's feet were clad in spaghetti strap stiletto heels adding a few more inches to her impressive height. Some light makeup was on Karen's face, not that she really needed it, Aegon thought privately, as Karen was naturally beautiful.

"Cat got your tongue?" Karen had an amused smile on her lips.

"What's the occasion?" Aegon said in a strangled voice.

"Well, I thought I'd take you out for the night. I know a little place where we won't be disturbed," Karen replied.

"Are you certain of this?" Aegon asked cautiously. "Intergang may still be out there, waiting for the right moment," he warned.

"Trust me, Egg. No-one's gonna get close to you while I'm around," Karen said confidently.

"Well, if you insist," Aegon said reluctantly as he rose from his chair to join Karen.

"This is a quiet little spot," Aegon commented as he and Karen entered a hole in the wall bar. A few of the patrons took note of Karen and Aegon entering and whispered amongst themselves. The bartender was surprising a man which caused Aegon to stare at him. The bartender took note of this and said, "Something on your mind?" he asked. His voice was a little higher than the average man.

"You're… you're a man?" Aegon said faintly. "How are…?" he tried to ask.

"How am I still alive?" the bartender said for him and Aegon nodded slowly. "I wasn't a born a man. I'm transgender," he explained.

"Trans-what?" Aegon blinked in surprise at the stranger word the bartender said.

"Transgender. I was originally a woman before making the transition into becoming a man," the bartender replied. "I'm Eric," he said offering his hand.

"Aegon, but I suppose you already knew," Aegon said as he shook Eric's hand. "How are… how did you become…?"

"Hormone replacement treatments and surgery," Eric answered. "Guess they don't have transgender people where you come from, huh?" he said cynically.

"Not that I am aware of," Aegon said awkwardly. "How do you know Karen?" he asked.

"She's a regular here," Eric replied. "She helped me get started in the first place, buying this place for me and from there she became a regular patron here," he said.

"And with all that's happened, how are you dealing with all this?" Aegon asked as he took a seat at the bar.

"I make it no secret that I'm transgender," Eric said casually. "Gotta tell ya, I was pretty sad when that business with the virus happened and I lost my older brother and my dad to it," he added with sorrow hinting at his features.

"I'm sorry for your loss, Mister Eric," Aegon said softly.

"It's okay, I had plenty of time to get past it," Eric replied. "But enough about that, so what you'll have tonight, Kare-bear?" he asked looking at Karen.

"Jack Daniels, straight up," Karen said instantly.

"And what you'll have?" Eric asked Aegon.

"I don't know. What do you have?" Aegon asked.

"Well, we've got just about every liquor and spirit known to man, plus I can make you whatever cocktail suits your fancy," Eric said. "But if you're not looking to get drunk, I got some sodas and soft drinks," he offered.

Eric then handed Aegon a menu. Aegon scanned it, his eyes unsure at the list of strange and exotic beverages. Karen noticed this and said, "Can't decide on what you want?" And Aegon nodded reluctantly at this.

"Here, try this one," Karen then said pointing to one of the titles on the menu. Aegon looked at it and it read 'Bloody Mary'.

"A Bloody Mary? What is a Bloody Mary?"

"A Bloody Mary is 3 parts Vodka, 1 part lemon juice, 6 parts tomato juice, pepper, salt, tabasco sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a tall glass with crushed ice and celery stick," Eric said listing off the ingredients.

"And people drink it?" Aegon asked faintly.

"Yeah, if you take out the alcohol in it, a Bloody Mary has a lot of vitamins in it due to the tomato and lemon juice," Karen said.

"Well, never let it be said I won't try anything once," Aegon said. "I'll have a Bloody Mary."

Eric then served Karen her Jack Daniels before he went to mixing Aegon's drink. Aegon watched in fascination as Eric mixed the cocktail. Once the cocktail was mixed, Eric served it in a tall glass filled with crushed ice and a celery stick and crushed pepper lined the rim of the glass.

"Here you are. One Bloody Mary," Eric said to Aegon who nodded his thanks before taking up the glass in his hand. The glass was cold in his palm and Aegon eyed it apprehensively before taking a cautious sip. To his surprise, the drink wasn't as unappetising as Aegon thought and he took another sip of it.

Karen smiled as she sipped at her glass of Jack Daniel's whiskey. "So, what do you think of your first cocktail?" she asked Aegon.

"It's… unique," Aegon replied after another sip. "I believe I like it," he said.

"Well, glad you like it. I put my heart and effort into every drink I serve," Eric said with a smile.

"And you have my thanks, Mister Eric," Aegon replied to the bartender. Now that the tension was eased, Aegon and Karen began chatting with each other, going into details about their lives; Aegon about growing up in Essos and Karen about life on Earth-2. Some of the bolder clientele of the bar tried to strike up conversation with Aegon and a few shyly asked for a selfie with him. Aegon indulged some of them and Karen kept a wary eye on them in case they got any other ideas.

After a couple of drinks, it all started to get blurry for Aegon and it then got dark but one last image burned into his mind was stumbling back to Karen's apartment and falling into bed.

The next morning.

Aegon's eyes fluttered open and he momentarily winced as bright sunlight hit him in the face from an open window. Then came a throbbing headache that threatened to split his skull like an overripe melon. Groaning in malcontent, Aegon groggily sat up and looked around; he realised that this was not his room and he was naked save for a bedsheet covering him from the waist down. Looking to see where his clothes were, Aegon soon found them laying scattered on the floor nearby.

But startling enough was the clothing that were definitely not his. A black cocktail dress and spaghetti strap stiletto heels were near Aegon's clothes and strewn on a nearby chair were a matching pair of lacy black & white panties and brassiere. Aegon then tried to remember what had happened last night; vague images of going out to a local bar with Karen last night filled his thoughts then after that it got blurry.

Aegon then heard the pumps of the shower that had been running stop and he wondered who it was that was going to come out of the bathroom. Was it Karen or some other woman he ended up in bed with last night? It was not a fun thing to ponder.

Then to Aegon's relief and consternation, Karen strode out of the bathroom and Aegon felt his jaw do its best to drop to the floor as he gazed upon the nude and freshly showered Karen Starr. She looked solid, she had hard yet subtle lines on her body indicating the strength of her body. Her legs were long and toned with corded muscle beneath the skin and her stomach had the slightest definition of abs. Her breasts were naturally large, each teat practically bigger than Aegon's head with only the slightest bit of sag to them. Carrying his gaze lower, Aegon saw the trimmed triangle of pale blonde fur above the lips of Karen's womanhood.

Aegon must've been staring when he heard Karen cough and his gaze snapped up to meet the cool amused look in her sky-blue eyes. "Morning, handsome," the busty Kryptonian blonde smiled lovingly as she tossed aside the bath towel and climbed onto the bed and straddled Aegon's waist. Karen then cupped Aegon's face in her hands before pressing a soft loving kiss to his lips. The feeling of Karen's soft satiny lips on his own had Aegon feeling less worried and he started to kiss her.

Karen gave a soft moan as she kissed Aegon, her tongue darting into his mouth. The honey sweet taste of Karen's tongue in his mouth was like the nectar of the gods for Aegon and he moved his own tongue into Karen's mouth. Karen's breasts pressed up against Aegon's chest, rubbing up and down and Aegon could feel her nipples harden under the motions. He could feel his own arousal make itself known.

"Someone's ready to play," Karen said in between kisses and she reached down with one hand and gently grasped Aegon's erect cock. Aegon tensed up and gave a slight moan as he felt Karen's surprising soft hand touch his manhood. Karen positioned Aegon where she wanted before she slowly lowered herself onto his shaft. The feeling of Karen's inner walls felt like slipping into a hot silky bath for Aegon as his length penetrated her depths. Once he was fully sheathed inside Karen, Aegon looked into her eyes. Karen smiled as she braced her hands on Aegon's shoulders, locking her legs around his waist and began to move.

Aegon gave a low moan as Karen's inner walls began to massage and milk his cock as she moved. "Oh yeah, that feels good," Karen whispered breathily as she slowly moved. She then placed Aegon's hands on her posterior and said to him, "Move with me." Aegon obeyed as he began to thrust in time with Karen's movements. The feel of Karen's soft velvety flesh under his palms was like heaven for Aegon; she felt solid and soft at the same time and he gripped Karen's lovely bottom tighter. Both them moaned in ecstasy as they began to move in synchronisation, gradually moving faster.

"Oh yeah! Just like that! Yes, yes!" Karen whimpered as she bounced up and down Aegon's cock as he thrust upwards with each downward movement she made, spearing himself deeper inside her. Karen then pressed a forceful and passionate kiss to Aegon's lips as she frenetically grinded against his hips.

"Oh sweet Rao! Don't stop! I'm so... close!" Karen moaned as she threw her head back exposing her neck. Aegon then started to assault Karen's neck with kisses and sweeps of his tongue, going down lower to her breasts, pressing his lips and tongue all over them and even being so bold as to start sucking on Karen's nipples. This sent Karen over the edge as she tensed up and gave a loud shuddering scream of ecstasy. Aegon winced as he felt Karen's inner walls tighten around him almost painfully, but this sent him over the edge and he gave a harsh gasping groan as he emptied himself inside Karen.

Panting hard, Karen gave a breathless smile as she kissed Aegon and asked him, "Where were you last night?" She gave a laugh then a needy groan as she lifted herself off him and nestled by his side. "Good morning to me," she said to herself with a pleased and drowsy smile on her face.

"That was... quite a wakeup call," Aegon commented between intakes of air as he came down from the high of his release. Looking at Karen, he asked, "Last night... did we... what exactly happened?"

"What do you remember about last night?" Karen looked at him seriously.

"Just flashes. I remember you taking me out to a little hole in the wall tavern and we had a couple of drinks and from there it was all blurry," Aegon replied.

"Yeah, you were kinda out of it," Karen confirmed for him. "I was pretty buzzed myself, but I was more sober than you," she said.

"I see," Aegon said. "Did anything happen last night? Anything I should be ashamed of?" he asked nervously.

"Not really. You were a complete gentleman the whole time," Karen said. "You opened doors for me, you paid for all the drinks and you didn't even look at any girls that tried to hit on you, not to mention you said some very sweet things to me during that time," she added.

"Well, that's a relief," Aegon muttered. "So, last night, did we...?" he tried to say.

"Yeah, when we got back to my place, we pretty much fell into bed together," Karen replied.

Now Aegon felt nervous and he asked, "Was I... Was I any good?" He was curious to know.

Karen's smile was kind as she replied, "No, but given that it was your first time and you were three sheets to the wind, it's understandable. No-one is good at sex when they're plastered. Don't care what anyone says otherwise."

"I see," Aegon said feeling embarrassed at his apparently lacklustre performance last night.

"But you do have a couple of things going for you," Karen then said to him. "One: your dick; I know I said it before, but you've got a good-sized python in your pants. And two: you listened; you didn't assume that you knew what you were doing or what I wanted. You asked what I liked and did your best to deliver."

"Were you the best I've had? No, not as good as you were this morning, but I have had way worse. So, with some time and practice, you'll certainly get better at it." Karen gave Aegon another kiss.

"I suppose that's a comfort at least," Aegon said with some relief.

"Yeah, plus I get bragging rights on being the first to pop your cherry," Karen grinned teasingly. "The others are gonna be so pissed when they find out," she giggled.

"Were you all betting on who would be the first to take my virginity?" Aegon asked, feeling a little offended.

"It was more of a joke between the ladies and I," Karen replied reassuringly. "We didn't actually bet on who would be the one, but it was kinda funny to joke about," she said.

"I see," Aegon mumbled.

"Now, I could do with some breakfast," Karen said. "You feel like pancakes?" she asked.

"I'm happy with whatever you feel like cooking, Lady Karen," Aegon answered.

"Please, no need to be some formal with me, especially after last night and this morning," Karen told him before she pressed another kiss to Aegon's lips and climbed out of the bed and sauntered out of the room, wiggling her ass a little. Aegon watched Karen's delectable rear sway from side to side and he felt his manhood grow hard again.

"Gods…" he muttered as he climbed out of bed and headed for the shower to try and calm himself down.

TO BE CONTINUED…

A/N: There! The ninth chapter of this done and dusted! So Power Girl was the one to pop Aegon's cherry and we saw the introduction of a transgender character in this story. I figured that Aresia's virus wouldn't affect Transgender men due to being born women in the first place and the virus probably affected a certain chromosome in men and not women, so I guess there's that. Plus, I figured Aegon could use some "male" friendship, so he won't be the sole male human on Earth. Whether we will see more of Eric depends on you guys and if you want to see more of him, but if none of you like him, then I'll just keep him to this chapter.

Anyways, not much more to say, so I'll just leave this here and see you all in the next one.

Oh, and a Happy New Year to you all in case I forgot to say that. Let's hope 2021 will be much better than 2020, yeah?

Be kind to one another,

Angry lil' elf.
