Chapter 29: Rough Soils

Previously…

"Polywater! They used polywater in the distilling process instead of regular water to make this sake!" Beverly exclaimed as she examined the bottle attached to a mist creating device. Picard then questioned, "But who would turn it into a mist for all to inhale and intoxicate?" Deanna giggled as she tried to answer, "Lore and Fenix brought some from one of their travels. I remember Data let me read their email saying 'the sacred sake was so strong it even got Lore shit-faced!'" Picard and Beverly laughed. Picard decided, "How much of the bottle is left in that contraption? Would we need to be responsible and get rid of it before anyone does something they'll regret?" Beverly answered, "It just ran out... Damn." Then the three kept laughing unaware as Tasha walked by glaring at them as she headed back to her quarters.

Data, Lore and Fenix stayed up all night to play the Ocarina of Time in the holodeck. All three of them played as Link. It was one of Fenix's best ideas to date. Her childhood dream came true when she was able to become Link and entered the Temple of Time herself. "Oh. My. God. This is so epic!" She screamed as the music in the background changed as she pulled out the master sword. Data was intrigued the entire game and Lore was enjoyed killing enemies while being amused by Fenix for her questionable actions throughout the game. Data stated as he pulled out the other master sword, "I immensely enjoy this game. It has puzzles, action, and a great plot, and now we get to explore an entirely new world. Simply amazing." Lore agreed and twirled his master sword, "This is pretty rad. Even if we're wearing these stupid tunics." Fenix defended, "Hey! Link rocked that tunic like no one's business. Besides, we finally got the master sword and we learned the 'Song of Time'. I think we look pretty fly in them, too even if we don't look very Aryan." Then Data jumped in, "We need to get that other heart piece back at the windmill. I should be able to play the 'Song of Storms' to spin the platforms which we were not able to do previously." "Okay let's go! We'll need as many heart containers possible for the final boss battle!" Fenix exclaimed. Lore chuckled as the two of them were fully immersed in the game.

The next day, everyone that was at the part had the worst hang-over they've ever experienced, Data, Lore and Fenix were exempt. They walked out of the holodeck, then to room 3560 to grab Fenix and Lore's baggage. They were currently in the main shuttle bay saying their good-byes. Data began, "I have inquired Captain Picard about the two of you to possibly stay on the Enterprise, if one day that is what you wish. Fenix, we will always need personnel in engineering and operations. And Lore, we could use your skills in combat for security and training. It would be a great advantage for the crew of the Enterprise if the two of you to joined but I understand that you have your own endeavours, but know that you will always have a place and a home here." Fenix smiled and thanked him, "I'll definitely keep that in mind, thank you, Data. You're always so thoughtful and kind. If more people were like you, the world will be a better place. Hey, Dr. Noonian Soong pretty much handed his research over to me and Lore which is great! That way you guys won't be the only ones in the universe because you guys are beautiful creatures, we need more androids and someday more and more people can live harmoniously as we do. I want to make that happen." Data's eyes lit up and smiled as he embraced her, "I love you, dear sister. I wish one day the three of us can be in closer proximity for frequent contact." Lore watched Data closely with sad eyes knowing that his brother will forever love Fenix as much as he does. She added while still in his embrace, "We should make that a goal, then. Three of us to live in a manor or something in the Lost Woods...! or a place like that." Data softly replied, "I would like that very much. Then my mental pathways will not experience missed sensory inputs from the both of you." Instead of feeling jealousy, he felt sympathy for his younger brother. When the two separated, Lore embraced his younger brother. Feeling a stinging sensation in his chest as he spoke, "Data, always remember... we're brothers. As long as we have each other, we won't need anyone else... other than Fenix, she's family… your sister. I love you brother." Data spoke, "I feel love with Fenix, and I wish I could feel it for you as well. I feel something for you, I do not know what it is yet, only that I know you are a person of importance to me, dear brother." Lore released him and Data existed the main shuttle bay as Fenix and Lore readied to leave the Enterprise once again. They started up their Vulcan vessel and took off for Omicron Theta.

A few hours into the trip, Fenix fell asleep with a bag of chips in her lap as she sat cross-legged. Lore smirked at the sight. I knew you'd fall asleep sooner rather than later… You kept refusing to call it a night since you were so insistent on playing Ocarina of Time. You were especially adorable in that little Elven costume with that ridiculous hat. Seeing you and Data get so caught up in the game was like watching two kids playing. I forget how young you still are at times. Data's feelings for you created complications for our little family, but I'm still glad that we still have some normalcy. He can't help how he feels but he can control his actions. He put our family needs before his emotions. He smiled kindly then went back to piloting the vessel.

A few hours in, Fenix woke up feeling groggy. She looked down to see a bag of chips on her lap and started mindlessly eating as she asked, "Man... how long was I out for?" Lore answered, "Three hours, fifteen minutes and forty-two seconds." Fenix suppressed a chuckle as she thanked him which didn't go unnoticed by Lore, "I saw that. Spit it out." He grinned.

"Oh, just... you and Data both do that thing with the seconds every time someone asks for 'how long blah blah blah'." He sighed theatrically as she continued, "I think its kind of funny and nerdy but in a cute way." Lore made a face and commented with sarcasm, "Huh... I never realized that." Fenix nonchalantly added, "It's not a bad thing, I think it's cute. It's totally part of the mandroid feature. All about precision for you guys and I have all the time in the world for you guys to knock yourselves out with time, numbers and precision. I'm chill that way." Lore chuckled. Yeah… you do have all the time and then some… with me. She added, "I noticed most people get impatient when Data rambles on but I find it soothing. Like..." she looked to him with a cheeky grin, "...ASMR."

"Oh geez..." Lore pinched the bridge of his nose.

"He's informative so I let him talk and talk. It's great, he appreciates it. And you totally do it, too." Lore looked offended and countered, "I do not...! When have I-?" She cut him off, "The time you were fixing the replicator. Then there was the time we were fixing the vessel. Oh, and the one time we were building the drum-"

"-Okay, okay! That's enough from you, kid." She stifled a giggle turning red as Lore tried not to smile. Fenix burst into laughter. Her laugh was contagious as Lore begrudgingly followed suit. "Hey Lore, did you want me to take over for a bit?" He answered sarcastically, "You know I don't require rest, but thanks for asking." She rolled her eyes and said, "Yeah, no shit Sherlock. I'm asking because maybe you want to do something else. Just because you don't need rest doesn't mean you should just keep working. It's not fair to you and I'm awake now, besides I'm a great pilot." He quirked his eyebrows with a shrug, "When you put it that way... sure. I'll let you take over, but... I'm still a better pilot than you." She made a face at him and mumbled, "Lore... you ass." Lore grinning as he winked at her. She shrugged, "Well, driver picks the tunes then." She changed the music; Mr. Roboto by Styx started playing as Fenix sang along serenading him. Lore looked at her agape as he failed to ask her. She tried to compose herself as she answered his silent question, "Yes. Really. For Reals." She grinned which turned into a howling laughter and Lore joined in the singing. Fenix sang her heart out and chair-danced whilst drinking energy drinks as she piloted the vessel, Lore spun in his chair as he watched Fenix roll up her sleeves of his sweater she wore and he smiled as he left the helm.

Once they arrived at Omicron Theta, Fenix ran out the vessel and yelled, "Home sweet home! I missed you, you dusty planet! Damn, feels good to be back!" as she kicked up some dust. Lore smirking as he grabbed their bags and headed inside their dwelling. She tried to grab one of the bags Lore carried with no avail so she stretched and warmed herself up as she asked Lore, "Hey, would spar with me, please? I really need to move my body after that ride. I'm just itching for a fight!" Lore smiled as he replied, "Exactly what I was thinking." She took off his sweater, folded it then placed it gently on the bed and they headed outside.

The two were sparring back on their home soil and it was soon to be the golden hour when everything would illuminate in gold. They both felt nostalgia as remembered their first-time sparring, which now felt like a millennia ago for them. They were at a standstill. Arms were locked together, both out of breath as they stared at each other with burning passion. Lore's eyes illuminated from the sun as his eyes stared into her amethyst ones. He could hear the rapid thumping of her heart, her quickened intakes of breathe, and noticed the spike in her pheromones. You're beautiful, I only want you, Fenix.She freed herself and jumped on him wrapping her legs around his torso as she devoured his lips. He held her up by crushing her body into his. Her small dainty hands roamed through his hair and tugged on his sweater. She pulled his shirt off of him and continued kissing some more until she took her shirt and bra off. Lore lost his footing, too preoccupied to notice the stone that stuck out behind him and fell backwards as they continued kissing.

Rolling on top of her he devoured her neck and down to her breasts. Smiling as he teased her breasts with his mouth, he enjoyed her scent. Fenix started to moan and whimper in pleasure as she explored his back and grabbed his buttock. Her hand slowly crept towards the front of his pants to feel his bulge as Lore continued to tantalize her breasts and the rest of her body. He moaned loud when he felt her hand on his cock over his pants. He skilfully undid her pants then he undid his and pulled out his hardened member. Lore growled in pleasure when her hand teased his manhood. She stopped and pulled her pants off completely, the only thing she wore was her boots. She grabbed his member and lead it toward her entrance. Lore's eyes widened. He looked at her love-drunk face and hoarsely asked her, "Are you sure?" Fenix nodded and replied breathlessly, "Yeah, I'm sure... I love you, Lore." and rewrapped her legs around his waist pulling him closer, his throbbing cock massaged her slippery folds, Lore's eyes closed as his mouth opened from the sensation. She closed her eyes bracing herself as he pushed himself in slowly. Lore felt her barrier break as he buried himself to the hilt. He moaned loud into the crook of her neck. She cried out in momentary pain and Lore stayed still for her. His eyes widened in feeling incredible pleasure.I feel it… our bond is complete. It's… it's beautiful. He closed his eyes feeling pleasurable sensations both physically and emotionally. He waited patiently for her to adjust to him until eventually she moved her legs to motion his hips.

His eyes flickered to her face. A single tear ran down the side of her eye from the momentary pain from getting deflowered. He kissed her tenderly as he gently thrust in and out of her, making it pleasurable for her once again. She cradled his head as he kissed her. He smelled blood. It was blood from taking her virginity and blood from the cuts she was getting from getting thrust into the rough soil. He picked her up keeping connected, his pants staying on. He held her by her hips as he moved her body up and down on his slick cock and she instinctively rolled her body to match his movements. Her strong legs holding herself up as Lore deepened his thrusts. Her hands on his shoulders with her fingers digging into his skin as Lore intensified his movements. With their foreheads connected, Lore whispered under his breath, "You're beautiful."

Their voices increased in volume under the skies of Omicron Theta. The sounds of their love-making keeping company for the lonely planet. Dust and dirt marked the android and his celestial queen. Eyes met, purple against yellow, transpiring something sacred as they danced the ancient dance. Fenix came with a vengeance, she called out Lore's name as she desperately clung onto his shoulders, she cried out. She came for Lore. He felt her muscles clench his throbbing manhood in a death-grip as she orgasmed. His eyes clenched tight, a single yellow tear rolled down his cheek from the intense physical and emotional connection he felt. He growled in unbridled pleasure as he exploded into her. Their voices echoing into the dusty wind.

Lore lowered himself and Fenix down to the ground and he settle cross-legged whilst still being inside her. She had her arms around his shoulders, her head resting on the crook of his neck. She noticed her boots touch the gravel covered ground. Both parties tried to catch their breath, she heard Lore speak her name tenderly, "Fenix..." She lifted her head to look at him, "...I love you." His hair was dusty, his yellow eyes filled with raw emotion as she wiped away his tears. She put her forehead against his and breathed out, "I love you too, Lore." She twitched when she felt his member move inside her, he asked her, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, just a bit sensitive." she replied and he embraced her kissing her shoulder. "I've hurt you." He stated. "Only for a moment, it's kind of hard to avoid when it's my first time." She chuckled. Fenix found her footing and slowly stood up, disconnecting from Lore. Both of them surprised by the sensation. They looked at his member, her blood painted on it, confirming that her virginity has been taken by him. She realized something, "You know what, it didn't grow back. They say you're only a virgin once, I guess that includes even me, huh?" Lore touched his tip of his head where it tore her barrier, feeling her blood. Fenix noticed his fixed on her virgin blood and tried to avert his attention feeling mildly embarrassed, "I'm surprised how we managed to not be completely naked when we did that. You kept your pants on and we're both still wearing boots. I wonder if that's why it's called knocking boots..." Lore knew why she was joking around, "Stop, don't be shy. What we did was sacred, and raw." He showed her his blood smeared finger, "This blood, your virgin blood... It's beautiful." As he stood, did his pants up as he kissed her tenderly. When he finished kissing her, he picked her up bridal style. "Wait, Lore! Our clothes-!"

"-Stop worrying about frivolous things, we can replicate new ones. We should really clean ourselves us, you're covered in dirt." He chuckled and kissed her forehead. He carried her back to their home, he felt like he was walking on clouds even though the soil was hard and rugged.
