Chapter 8

The Truth

            I soon found myself ripping apart my apartment again in frustration! I even ripped up Adam's letter and burnt it! For once in my life, I've never been so angry and confused at the same time! Kyan was the man I had loved before discovering what he really was. Now I just don't know anymore.

            I heard a soft tapping at the front door. I quickly wiped away my tears and hurried to answer it, hoping that it wasn't who I thought it was. I opened the door.

            Kyan raised his head up and looked down at me, "Samus, there's something I want to tell-"

            I slammed the door shut. "Leave me alone!" I pressed my head against the door and sobbed. I've never felt so hurt in my life.   

            "Samus, please open the door." Kyan said from the other side.

            I shook my head, "No! You lied to me! You're not even human!" I raised my voice.

            I listened to Kyan's silence for a moment and he spoke softly, "Open the door and let me at least explain."

            "Go away, you alien!" I stepped back and screamed! I continued to take steps back and stumbled.

            Time seemed to have slowed as I fell toward the ground. I closed my eyes, hoping for the end of this madness! I wanted to go back to my life as a bounty hunter! I wanted out of this nightmare!

            I opened my eyes and blinked. My apartment…

            I raised my head up and met Kyan's green glowing eyes. He held me in his arms tenderly.

            "Samus, I need to tell you something." Kyan whispered softly into my ear.        

            He carried me into the bathroom and sat me down on the counter. He shut and locked the door and turned back to look at me with his sad looking eyes.

            "Samus, we're always being watched…" Kyan lowered his head and looked away.

            I blinked in surprise, "Watched? By who?"

            Kyan sighed and didn't turn his head to look at me, "The Galactic Officials and the Terran scientists. There are cameras everywhere in every room… except for the bathroom.. At least they respect some privacy."

            I wiped my eyes and stared at him, "How do you know this?"

            Kyan's head spun toward my direction, "I've always known about it and was about to tell you before we…" He fell silent. He turned his head away again, "They watched us. They watch everything that goes on in Terra! Terra was only meant to be an experiment! We're all guiney pigs! This space station wasn't meant for happiness or a life in space! Your people are using everyone on here as an experiment!" Kyan turned his head to glare at me. He quickly turned his head away and paced back and forth, "We could even be in an experiment."

            At that instant I thought of Adam's letters and stolen information he had written in them.

            "The Breeding Experiment." I lowered my head and whispered.

            Kyan stopped pacing and turned to me, "The Breeding Experiment?" He raised his eyebrow.

            I raised my head up and stared into his eyes. I shook my head, "No, nothing… The fact of the matter is you didn't tell me who you really were!" I jabbed my finger into his collar bone. I narrowed my eyes and glared at him, "Why did you lie to me?" My voice became raspy.

            Kyan frowned sadly, "Samus, I did not lie to you. It's against my morals to lie. What I had told you was only partial to the truth."

            I felt my eyes begin to fill with tears, "You could have told me! I would have understood!"

            Kyan shook his head, "Don't say that." He sighed and looked over my shoulder at the mirror that covered the length of the wall.

            "It is time that I reveal myself to you, Samus."

            I watched him as he stepped back. He kept his gaze fixed on mine.

            Kyan's skin became darker and shined with the tint of silver. His height grew and his muscle mass enlarged. His hair grew longer until it touched the ground. His nose became smaller and smaller and slightly flat. The length of his eyes grew longer. I lowered my gaze and noticed a tail dangling behind him with blue-green fire burning down it.

            I raised my gaze back up and noticed silver dragon-like wings sprouting from Kyan's back. Kyan's eyes slowly closed and reopened to reveal his bright green glowing crystal eyes.

            I gasped! His pupils were shaped like a snake's!

            "This is what I am." Kyan's voice echoed softly as he spoke. "Now you know the truth about me." Kyan folded his large arms over his broad chest.

            I continued to study him further and noticed that his clothes had been replaced by black armor that only covered certain portions of his body.

            He wore black metal boots with shin guards. Both is kneecaps had a plate of armor on them. My gaze rose further up his muscled body. Kyan even wore black pelvic armor around his hips with a long piece of dark violet silk hanging from a bright green teardrop jewel encrusted in the center of the pelvic armor.

            Black bracers ran from his wrists to half way up his arm. I noticed underneath his folded arms that he had a black breast plate on his torso with three plated shoulder armor that had gold embroiled designs of dragons and fire.

            What an amazing creature! Such muscle mass and strength! Kyan was absolutely a marvelous being! The Terran scientists would probably fight each other to have such a newfound species! But wait… wouldn't they have studied him to get a better understanding of such a race? If they knew that Antaria was composed of such a race, then why didn't they make a deal to study the Archons?

            Kyan came closer to me and placed his large hand with long black finger nails on the side of my face. Put yourself at ease, Samus. The scientists of Terra already have the information about my race.

            My eyes grew wide as I heard Kyan's voice gentle voice speak in my mind!

            Kyan's soft lips formed into a sweet smile, "I can read your thoughts, Samus. I know that you know who I really am… It's not everyday that you meet the prince of an alien race, right?"

            I opened my mouth to speak, but Kyan placed his finger to my lips. He raised his hand up and ran his fingers through my hair. His eyes came into mine.

            My heart raced and I felt the same warm burning sensation again from the time when I had first met Kyan. I fell in love all over again!

            I closed my eyes and slightly parted my lips as I bent forward for Kyan to kiss me. I felt his hands on the sides of my face as he cupped my head in his hands. His lips pressed into mine. As we kissed, his hands ran down the back of my head and down my back. He took me into his arms and pulled me closer. I slid off the counter and planted my feet on the ground. I had to bend my head up as far as it could go to keep my lips to Kyan's.

            I slowly opened my eyes and realized how much taller Kyan was. I noticed that he had to bend his head down to kiss me.

            I half closed my eyes and wrapped my arms around his body. My hand ran across the smooth and soft surface of his waist. My fingers gently pressed into his skin and I could feel his thick muscles.

            Despite the lacking of his armor covering his body, he felt warm to press into.

            I opened my eyes wider as I felt his hands slide down my waist and run over my butt. My eyes half closed again and I felt my cheeks become hot as I blushed.

            Kyan opened his eyes and pulled his lips away from mine. His eyes came into mine again and his smile faded, "Samus… I could give back your life, if you desire it so much. But, if you choose to go back, you will have never come to Terra and I cannot go with you." Kyan spoke sadly.

            His eyes softened as his appearance saddened.

            I raised my eyebrow and asked, "What? How can you do that?"

            Kyan placed his hand on my cheek, "Did you forget? I have magical abilities. I have enough power to only send you back to the time when you were offered the choice to come to Terra."

            "Why are you telling me this?" I asked softly.

            Kyan sighed and replied, "Because I love you too much and I want you to be happy. If this life as a resident of Terra does not please you, I can give back your other life as a bounty hunter. It is what you want, right?"

            I widened my eyes in surprise. "Yes… but.." I lowered my head.

            Kyan held my chin in his hand and raised my head back up. "What is wrong?" Kyan asked.

            I turned my head away, "I-I don't want to leave you." I whispered.

            Kyan released my chin and fell silent for a moment. "You don't want to go back? You would… rather be with me?" Kyan's eyes softened and his facial expression brightened.

            I turned my head back toward him and nodded and smiled, "Yes." I raised my arms up and wrapped them around Kyan's neck. "I can learn how to live like a family." I kissed Kyan.

            I realized at how much I wanted to be with Kyan, no matter what species we were. I loved him more than… the life as a bounty hunter. The life I had was the past and I knew I had to move on. But, I will never forget about it… or the Metroid hatchling.

            Kyan slowly lowered me to the ground and laid me on my back. He held me in his arms and wrapped his tail around one of my legs.

            I tilted my head back to allow him to kiss my neck. One of Kyan's hands slid up my shirt and gently rubbed my breasts. I closed my eyes and opened my mouth to let out a sigh.

            I wanted every minute that I spend with Kyan to last forever! I've never felt so happy in my life!

            Kyan slipped my clothes off of me and tossed them aside. I opened my eyes to slits and watched as Kyan quickly took off his armor. He looked down into my face and smiled lovingly. He slowly pushed my legs apart and crawled closer to me. He pressed his warm body against mine.

            I watched him as he reached down with his hand and slid something into me. I gasped as the same rock hard object came into me!

            Kyan raised his head up and looked at me again. He slowly bent forward and placed his hands on the floor on either side of my head. He bent his head down and pressed his lips into mine to kiss me deeply. I wrapped my arms around him and my legs around his hips. I ran my hands down his back and over my legs to rub his butt.

            I closed my eyes and tilted my head back as Kyan ran his tongue over my cheek and down to kiss my neck. He ran a trail of kisses further down my neck to one of my breasts. He engulfed my whole breast into his mouth and I let out a soft moan.

            Kyan bent his head up, releasing my breast. I felt as he began to move his lower body back and forth slowly.

            I pressed my fingertips into the skin of his butt as the warm sensation burned inside of me. I opened my mouth again and softly moaned. I felt Kyan's movements hasten and he pressed his body harder into me. I gasped from each thrust! I tightly closed my eyes and let out loud moans. I shook my head back and forth as Kyan pressed harder. The feeling was unbelievable! It felt so good!

            Kyan's thrusts seemed so much more powerful than last time!

            I slid back and forth on the smooth surface of the bathroom floor as Kyan moved faster and faster, back and forth. I felt Kyan placed one of his hands on my face to stop me from shaking my head. His lips pressed into mine and we both kissed each other. I continued to moan as we kissed. It was difficult keeping our lips together as Kyan continued to pound into me! My heart raced and all my nerves in my entire body went insane! I felt my body temperature rising and sweat running off of my skin!

            My legs loosened their grip around Kyan's waist as I began to feel overpowered by the burning sensation. I opened my mouth to scream, but my voice became shot and I gasped heavily! I wanted to pass out, but I wanted this feeling to keep going! Somehow, I was kept from passing out.

            Kyan ran his tongue down my neck and kissed my bouncing breasts. Darkness clouded my mind once again and I felt myself drifting into the darkness as I let out one last gasp before the powerful sensational feeling came.
