DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of these characters; they are the brilliant
creation and property of James Cameron, FOX etc. I do own Faith and some
minor characters, but you know the rest.
SPOILERS: Takes place after Freak Nation - the imaginary season 3.
Chapter Eleven:
A month later Terminal City was finished - its transformation was complete. They had managed to clear up a lot of the contamination that had caused the land to be shut off in the first place, and as such, were able to plant vegetables, fruit, flowers and the like. Many of the transgenics enjoyed gardening and lavished attention on the growing crops. The buildings had all been restored to their former glory, and even had fresh coats on paint both inside and out. Lots of them were decorated indoors with brightly coloured masterpieces by Joshua or breathtaking photographs by Faith. The general drive of the transgenic community was high and it seemed as though things were really perfect. Alec was proud of what had been accomplished under his leadership, though he knew it was a team effort. He glowed happily at the city. Freak Nation was complete. Everyone seemed to be at the peak of his or her lives, maybe it had to do with the spring air. Joshua was ecstatic, having come across another canine transgenic, who was completely smitten with him. Even Mole didn't have a bad word to say. Max's spirits had also lifted, as she had started taking care of Gem's daughter Hope, who was rapidly adapting to the world at an astonishing pace. She had finally abandoned all thoughts of Logan completely and was actually smiling.
"You should be proud of what you've done here...", A voice purred in his ear. Alec stiffened, suddenly feeling weak at the knees. Time seemed to stand still as Faith circled around him, her hands travelling under his shirt, over his chest. Something wasn't right. She pushed her mouth against his urgently, taking in his taste. Her hair falling around her sweaty face. The two could sense all the transgenics watching them. Faith knew every female here wanted him, they always had - way back from Mantecore. He was without a doubt the most beautiful specimen she had ever seen, which was a significant feat seeing as no X was ever ugly. She knew they all envied her. Just like Alec knew what every male thought when Faith walked past. But no one would dare enact their fantasies, they knew it was the fastest way to get killed. Alec breathed in through his nose as their mouths clamped tightly against one another. He couldn't think, he was drawing in her scent, her sweet smell of...pheromones. his mind became clear instantaneously and he pulled her off him, "We need to get you out of here." "But I want to be here with you." "And I want to be with you, but if we don't get you out of here, there's gonna be hell to pay." Alec looked around wildly, as several X5s and X6s started moving towards them. Faith bit his ear playfully, "I think here's fine." "Well you aren't exactly thinking straight right now. Stop for a second and think carefully at this, how are you feeling? Hot, flushed?" "I feel...mmm...like your making me hot. I...oh god. Alec, I'm in heat! Again! It's been so long since the last time I thought that it must've passed out of my system." "Obviously not. We need to get you out of here. I'll take you to the safe house. Okay?" "No, it's full. It must be something in our genes, the house is full of X's." The males continued moving towards them, closing in on the couple. One sprang forward and blurred next to Faith. He sniffed her hungrily, his eyes being over taken with a predatory stare. Alec's nostrils flared angrily and he pummelled the X5 with a vicious punch that sent him flying through the air backwards. "Mine!", He growled viciously, "Back off." Faith watched with heated interest as the males stopped. The air was thick with the aroma of her pheromones. "I said, back off!", Barked Alec in a menacing tone that caused the transgenics to retreat, scared. They all kept an eye on the radiating X9, as their CO led her up to his room.
The two barely made it, crashing through his door, pausing momentarily with the last sane thoughts they had to barricade it, before tearing one another's clothes off in a frenzied fury of hormones and passion. The day turned into night and the night turned into day, and eventually the two transgenics fell asleep, completely exhausted. They awoke that night, staring deeply into one another's eyes. "Yours huh?" Faith asked teasingly. Alec placed his arm around her, pulling her in for a sweet embrace, "Mine", He placed her hand on his chest, "Yours" Then looked deep into her eyes, "Always." They kissed and moved their bodies against one another. Alec rolled over so that he lay on top of Faith and they made slow love; the heat had passed, but the two were beyond that. They were one. The rhythmic routine continues for the night, slow yet passionate. They kept their eyes open the entire time, lost in one another.
