During a party to celebrate Canada's annexing of Washington State and the liberation of Terminal City Ames White tasered Max in the stomach. Because Max happened to be ovulating at the time this caused her released egg to self divide. Max is pregnant with herself.
The transgenic all underwent counselling and therapy to be fit to join the Royal Canadian Mounties.
Logan was thought missing presumed dead but then turned up with Lydecker just as Alec and Max were sharing their emotionally healthy first kiss.
October 11th
The two transgenics lips met in the most non exploitive, gender balanced emotionally healthy kiss of their lives.
Alec pulled his intended transgenic mate closer in a consensual way making Max moan with well adjusted pleasure. The sound of an SUV pulling up made them pull apart slightly and stare amazed at the arriving occupants.
Matt Sung and Asha Barlow helped an emaciated Lydecker and Cale out of the S.U.V.
"Look who I rescued from the Breeding cult!" Matt Sung said triumphantly.
"Oh for fucks sake!" Max whined to the universe. "Can my life suck anymore?"
Logan took her hands in his and brought them to his lips. "Your sucky life has ended forever Max. I've been cured of the virus."
Max looked at Logan in wonder and Alec slipped slowly away.
Alec went to his room and started packing his suit case he wasn't going to stand in Max and Logan's way he respected Max and Logan's love too much. The defrosting north with its thawing prairies due to global warming, beckoned as a great career option for a transgenic killing machine. The people of Alaska had resisted integration into the Canadian United Northern Territories and Alec was the type of the soldier the Canadian Liberation Infantry Troops needed.
October 15th 2021
Max sat with Mole and Dix frustrated going over paperwork.
"These building upgrades the Canadian Occupying Council of Kindergartens are demanding are gonna be expensive to implement." Mole said worried.
"C.R.E.A.M. baby" Said Max. "And we need a frickin' crèche and kindergarten so we can all go out to work."
"I know how we can get the cash together." Dix said to Max hesitantly holding some papers. "But you might not like it."
"Look we're desperate here Dix whatever it takes!" Max said. "Spill the dealio."
"Reality TV they're all very interested in us transgenics." Dix told her. "And they're willing to pay a lot."
And so it was that in the month of November the transgenics of Terminal city found their every move monitored by a camera.
Big Brother 2021
Mole showered in his briefs he didn't care if it cost him votes. That skanky ho Syl was deliberately walking round the house nude at midnight to get the internet audience votes. Mole was damned if he was stooping to her level.
Mole knew by talking about his exciting Desert Storm adventures in the communal spa pool he was guaranteeing his popularity with the male viewer audience.
Mole was the most original housemate ever. The heating was turned high in the house to encourage everyone to take off as much clothing as possible. So Mole built to with stand desert heat, stood out by wearing a tuxedo every day.
The Amazing Race 2021
Zane blurred to the pit stop on top of the Eiffel tower and was guaranteed his place. Phil Keoghan the elderly but fit host shook his hand admiringly.
Survivor Antarctica 2021
Mia bashed the penguin over the head with a rock and started tearing at its feathers. Being engineered to survive five days without food and still be super fit was a real advantage for her. The dark haired telepath knew that albino transgenic was better equipped than her at surviving the elements but Mia as a psy op was much better at forming alliances.
It wasn't going to be her flame extinguished at the next tribal council.
Trading Spouses Wife/Swap 2021
Sam, Max's clone sat in the car going to her unknown home and spoke to the camera. "Yeah well there was just my husband Steve a biochemist and my stepson Johnny a gifted child in our San Francisco apartment and yeah I worked as a biochemist too." Sam laughed at the interviewer. "Yeah I was prepared to kill Steve at first but I fell in love."
The car pulled up outside a two story bungalow in Boston and Sam was led through the empty house.
"Oh looks tidy and clean." Grinned Sam relieved to the cameraman. She walked through into the study. "Hey intelligent people obviously, look at this study filled with books in Ancient Minoan. I guess the guy must be a Classics professor." Sam peered at some photos on the side board. "Oh how sad, look at those photos of the babies, they've had two still births." Sam wandered down into the basement. "Hmm snake pens. Someone's into pets."
Supernanny 2021
Max sat down at the table nervously with Krit. What was this woman with appalling grammar who had never actually had children of her own going to say about the transgenic children's behaviour?
Jo Frost looked at them over her glasses and said warmly. "I want to congratulate you both as representatives of the adult transgenics guardians of the X7s and X8s for the fine home you've provided in Terminal City for them and the way you've fed and clothed them. They are bright intelligent children who you must feel very proud of." She narrowed her eyes. "However I am shocked to see how the X7s run round in gangs and still taser the Freaks this is completely unacceptable. They are communicating with everybody in sonar bat frequency no wonder it is so exhausting for you to take them to the supermarket Max. The way they run round your local mall is appalling. They can not run into the pet shop and taser the puppies its ridiculous." Jo turned angrily to Krit. "You don't do enough to help Max; can't you see the poor girl is exhausted?"
Max sobbed on the chubby twenty-first century answer to Mary Poppins shoulder. "I feel so ashamed." Max wept. "I'm just too tired to be bothered to fix their behaviour."
"Well don't worry. I've drawn up a schedule so you can carry on administering and running Terminal City and still spend quality time with the forty X7 and 8s." Jo Frost told her confidently.
The next week the X5s put the behaviour modification techniques Jo Frost had taught them into place with the X7s.
Zack stopped an X7 garrotting a policeman who'd come to close to the T.C. gate. He took the boy firmly by the hand and led him to a box dubbed the 'naughty solitary confinement box'. Jo Frost was there monitoring Zack's techniques.
Zack lowered himself to the X7's eyelevel. "You have been very, very naughty and your behaviour is unacceptable now you're going to stay in the naughty box for twelve hours with out food or water understand?"
Jo nodded approvingly. "That's good Zack an hour's punishment for every year they are old is a good way to set boundaries."
After two weeks the transgenics of Terminal city gathered round Jo Frost sobbing their farewells the X7s had communication boards around their neck on which they'd written "Our collective hive mind loves you JoJo."
December 12th
Max and Mole danced around the control room for joy. The transgenics had raised enough money to keep the T.C. crèche and daycare centre open.
Mole looked at Max in his arms and lowered his mouth onto hers slowly. Their kiss lasted a heart pounding minute Max broke away startled.
"I didn't mean to be out of line Max." Mole apologised to her. "But you know me criticising your every move was just me hiding my incredible sexual attraction to you and you still haven't consummated your relationship with Logan have you?"
Max wrung her hands. "It's just never the right time. Like the other night we were gonna make love, but we had so many candles lit surrounding the bed the sheets caught fire and we had to call in the fire brigade. And the week before that there was a consumer shortage of roses so we couldn't have sex because Logan couldn't strew a trail of rose petals to the bedroom."
Mole turned away and looked at the ceiling. "Is it Zack?"
"My brother ew no." Max replied.
Mole turned back to her. "Is it Alec?"
Max lowered her own head unable to meet Mole's eyes. "I think it might be." She whispered.
AN:The story "I knew it was wrong but it felt so right" is the prequel to this story.
