Chapter 35: Draco Nidum
Previously…
It was her turn to shake her head in disbelief, "I... I don't know what to say. I'm kinda still just... shocked. I know Q mentioned the 'unholy trinity' thing back when I was kidnapped by the Borg and I was shocked then... and then I kind of just pushed it aside and forgot about it thinking that it was absurd and wrong... I'm still old-school I guess and I believe in monogamy. But... why the hell would Q keep pushing us in THAT direction?" Q popped in sitting in the Captain's chair, "You'll find out soon enough kids! And the three of you makes a triad. Much stronger than two." then disappeared with a wink. Lore and Fenix stared at the chair Q was just sitting in with their jaws slightly ajar. Data began, "Well, Q does have a point. We have very limited information about Electi Illiusia or their people." and glanced at Fenix.
Lore and Fenix were in the cabin of the vessel. She blushed at feeling his hardened manhood that pitched a tent in his pants as she sat on his lap. He commanded her, "I won't repeat myself after this. Kiss me now, or you'll suffer the consequences." Fenix being a glutton for punishment, she curiously looked at him with doe-like innocent eyes and leaned in again only to stop just centimetres away from his curved lips and grinned. Looking into his cobra yellow eyes, she gave her answer, "I'll take my chances." He sighed and stated, "Don't say I didn't warn you." He held her as he stood up and threw her on the bed. She jumped off the bed and ran for the door only to have Lore lunged her. Taking her down to the floor he yanked her clothes off as she struggled against him enjoying the sounds she made as she struggled. He grabbed the strongest rope to tie her hands together. He threw her over his shoulder and walked over to the bed, his cock throbbing in anticipation. He unceremoniously dropped her onto the bed as she struggled against her bonds, she exclaimed, "Lore! I'm sorry! Please-!" He ignored her and shoved his finger in her mouth, "I did warn you, my little Fenix, now don't make me gag you, too." She stopped her protest and stayed still and tried to cover to breasts, still feeling mildly shy being exposed even though he's seen her naked body countless times. He grabbed her bound wrists and pulled them above her head and tied them to the headboard, she whimpered in embarrassment and arousal. He leaned back marvelling at the sight, he undid his pants and pulled out his solid cock, stroking it firmly. With his other hand, touched her dainty little foot and caressed it up her leg until he reached her womanhood, she tried so hard to hide with her legs exposing her perky little bum. He slapped her bum cheek, hard enough to leave a momentary red imprint. She yelped at the painful sensation. "Did I tell you to hide your body? Do as I say and it won't hurt as much." He commanded. He continued touching her, he caressed her bum and then touched her womanhood. He smirked when he felt wetness between her folds and stated, "You know, you can try to be this... chaste, innocent little girl that insists that isn't kinky but this...?" He showed her slick viscosity between his thumb and index finger as he continued, "...tells me otherwise. Just be honest with me and most importantly... to yourself. I can see and smell how aroused you get when I hurt you... and especially when I'm dominant." He licked his fingers, enjoying the taste of her as his eyes lingered on her breasts that heaved, then to her face that he found most lovely. Roughly flipping her onto her knees, he touched her small breasts. Tugging and pinched her pebbled nipples making her voice hitch. "See? Are you honestly going to lie to me that you don't enjoy the pain? Do not lie, my dear Fenix." She looked at him, torn as she felt him abusing her nipple. Leaning down, he whispered in her ear, "Answer me, Fenix. Are you... kinky?" She closed her eyes, her face turning redder as she answered, "Yes..." He smiled tenderly, leaned down and bit her neck, "That's my good, little girl." He purred. Grabbing her hips, he positioned himself at her entrance, slid his cock between her slippery folds enjoying the sensation. He bit her neck until she bled, she yelled in pain and pleasure. He licked up the blood feeling the puncture holes heal in moments. The smell of her arousal mixed with her blood reminded him of the first time they made love, but this is different. This was carnal and fierce, master and slave and he was her master. He plunged himself into her, she hissed at the sudden intrusion which quickly turned into pleasure. His grip tightened on her hips, then knelt back up as he watched her body get pounded by his force and enjoyed how her small buttocks jiggled. Reaching his hand to her breast, he grabbed it and played with her nipple while he held her by the hip with the other,"You're so cute, Fenix. You're adorable when you're enjoying yourself getting fucked by me." She moaned and mewled in the depths of arousal. His eyes lowered down and watched his cock slide in and out of her with amusement, amazed by how their bodies connected. He felt her grip his manhood like a death grip signalling to him she was about to have her unforgiving orgasm. His fingers dug in her hip, causing her soft skin to bruise only for it to disappear moments later. He lowered himself to the side her face and demanded, "Do you enjoy getting fucked by me? Your God?" He pinched her nipple, she screamed. She cried out in pain and pleasure as Lore demanded an answer, "Answer me Fenix! Am I your God!?" "Yes, Lore!" She cried. "Worship me by coming for me one more time!" He ordered. She came one last time for him and screamed. He grunted and growled loud, his head tilted back, eyes rolled back into his head, seeing stars as he released himself deeply into her. He stayed inside her, indulging the feeling. His eyes looked at her bound hands and mused hair. His hand trailed from her hip and then up her spine. Leaning over to her bound hands, he undid them. Her eyes widened as he leaned over, deepening the feeling of his manhood in her. He flipped her on her back to let her rest. He lips full and partially parted, breasts moving up and down as she tried to catch her breath. A sheen of sweat misted her body and her eyes glossy with euphoria. A lovely shade of red across her cheeks, and his clear ejaculate spilling out her womanhood. Lore smiled at the beautifully erotic sight of his wife. He lowered himself, turned her chin and kissed her lovingly. Her lips quivered still not fully come down from her high. Rubbing her wrists, he then kissed them gently, and returned to kissing her. Pulling back, she had to catch her breath, her vision still spinning and feeling disoriented. Lore smirked at her and laid down beside her, scooting her body flush against his own. She nuzzled into his neck, her breathing finally beginning to return to normal. Lore chuckled feeling complete joy, he shifted and licked her neck. "Eww, Lore. I'm sweaty, that's gross." Fenix complained with knit eyebrows. He quirked an eyebrow and answered seductively, "I enjoy tasting you... every essence of you is like Celestial Snow for me." and continued suckling on her neck, giving her hickies that disappeared in moments. She protested, "Lore, I need to shower and get back to the bridge, I promised Data I would take over." He grumbled in frustration, "Fine... Go shower, then." He released her from his grasp, she hopped off the bed, turned her head and flashed him a sultry smile, "... I still have thirty minutes left." she hinted. He grinned and followed her to the shower.
Fenix walked into the bridge, her hair still damp from her shower holding a can of energy drink as she greeted Data, "Hey bro! Shift change." Data smiled, "Thank you, Fenix." and moved out of the seat for her. Their hands touched, Data blinked a few times as Fenix blushed as she sat in the pilot's chair. Data sat down beside her in the co-pilot's chair. He commented, "I take it that you did not rest as you intended." eyeing the energy drink. Blushing, she answered, "No. Not really... But I'm good to go! I don't need anywhere near as much sleep as regular humans. As long as I get two hours within the 24 hours, I'm right as rain. I sleep more at times just because I can, doesn't mean I need it." Data chided with raised eyebrows, "He should be letting you rest instead of seducing you every chance he gets." Her face turned red, "True. But it was partly my doing, too. Hey..." She looked at him tilting her head, "Is this your way of being... jealous?" she innocently asked as she steered the vessel. He looked perplexed with widened eyes as he answered, "No. I believe it to be concern for your well-being, not jealousy." Inclining her head, "Ah, right. Sorry I misread your signals, bro." He reassured, "It is alright, I can understand how it could have been taken as jealousy." Lore walked in with damp slick hair, a small section falling into his face. His eyes met his brother's. Data tilted his head, "Lore, you shower, too?" Lore answered, "Yes, I do." "Why?" "Fenix insists I shower to stay clean. Says I get dusty or I start smelling too much like her." He quirked an eyebrow with a sly smile. "That is true, you do smell like her most of the time." Data commented. "Hey! I'm not stinky!" Fenix exclaimed. "I did not say you are, Fenix. You smell very nice all the time... which is rather inhuman but I guess that is because you are evolved." Data corrected. "Thanks Data." She smiled. Data looked at Lore, "Are you waterproof then?" he inquired. "I wasn't until Fenix upgraded me which enabled me to swim." Lore patiently answered with a sincere smile. "Intriguing. I have tried swimming before, unfortunately I did not have enough buoyancy to do so. I sank straight to the bottom of Devala Lake." Data started retelling his memory. "I had to walk 1.46km along the bottom of the lake back to the surface and took almost two weeks to get all the water out of my servos." Fenix made a face thinking back to when she asked Lore if he could swim before she fixed his emotion program, "That sucks, Data. I remember asking Lore if he could swim and he knew he couldn't. So... he spared me the water draining of his servos. Thank god... that wouldn't have been fun." she finished, with a displeased looked on her face. Lore scowled as he asked, "Why would that be so bad, Fenix? You always upgrade and tinker things in me." Rolling her eyes, she replied with sarcasm, "Because at the time, I still haven't fixed your emotion program so you would've been a real peach to work with." she continued, "Plus, draining water out of your servos would've been a bitch, plain and simple." She chuckled. "Geordi did not enjoy that either, he complained and cussed a lot." commented Data. "Well, since I upgraded Lore, I could upgrade you, too, Data. Swimming is fun, just ask your brother." She offered. "It's fun. I enjoy it. Surfing, too. I like surfing." Lore agreed with a nod, a strand of his damp hair falling into his face. "I would like that very much." Data concluded. Fenix smiled warmly, "Alright, it's a date. When it's Lore's turn to steer, I'll upgrade you." Lore smirked at the two conserving like children, "Well, I'm going to go do some diagnostics on myself. You kids stay out of trouble, if you need me just call." He kissed Fenix on the head before leaving the bridge. Data remained in the bridge and asked, "What is surfing?" Fenix grinned, "It's a type of water sport. You stand on a board in the water and ride the waves. It takes skill and balance. After I upgrade you, the three of us will go surfing when we get a chance. I think Lore misses it, he enjoys if very much and I do too. I used to surf all the time back in my time." she reminisced.
After an hour, Data left the bridge to do an overall inspection of the vessel. Lore tracked him down shortly after he was finished and turned Data off. He switched clothes with Data, sat Data back onto a chair and left him. Lore headed for the bridge wearing Data's uniform with a grin. He slicked his hair back, making sure to look as uncanny as possible to Data. As Lore entered the bridge wearing Data's clothes, he wiped away his grin and maintained his neutral expression as Data usually has. Fenix greeted Lore thinking he was Data, "So how is the vessel running? Anything bad that we might need to fix up?" "Everything is in good working order. Purring like a kitten." Lore tried to mimic Data. He inwardly, chuckled at his attempt. Fenix quirked an eyebrow, then brushed it off as she returned to steering the vessel. Then Lore began, "As much as I enjoy our time together, I find it is becoming more difficult to be near you when we are alone, Fenix." She sighed, "Yeah, I know what you mean. Like, Lore already knows I have feelings for you. Cat's out of the bag, you know? But I just... I don't know, any more." He watched her watching the stars as she steered, "Do you love me?" he asked. "Of course, I love you, you're my brother in law. We're family." She answered. "But romantically? Do you love me?" He asked again. "I... I don't know. All I know is I have feelings for you and that I'm also attracted to you. That's as far as I've gotten. You're a lot different from Lore. You guys are both incredible in your own ways and I... I'm drawn to the both of you." She admitted. Lore's eyebrows knit together. "Yes, I admit that I am different from my brother in many ways, I do not feel jealousy." Lore stifled another giggle. Good God… the words coming out of my mouth… I think I'm doing pretty good mimicking Data so far. Fenix looked at him suspiciously as he continued, "So, tell me, has my brother been treating you better?" He faintly smirked for a moment before catching himself, which didn't go unnoticed by Fenix. She stopped herself from showing any indication that she realized this was Lore she was talking to. She smirked, "He's still a total PB&J, but he's amazing in the sack. Maybe I should get him to dress up in Data's uniform next time we bang… You know? That way I can pretend that I'm with him..." Her eyes glared at him, "...Lore. Yeah, busted, dude." She glared at him. The jig was up, she caught on quick and he smiled like a Chesire cat, "My father... I had a rhyme for him. 'Often wrong Soong had a broken heart, can't even tell his boys apart." She rolled her eyes and retaliated, "Well... 'I'm often right Fenix, and I can differentiate my sidekicks." Lore laughed knowing how true her statement was as she continued, "What did you do to him? Is he alright?" she asked with a concerned look. "Yeah, he's fine, I just turned him off..." Lore casually answered. "What!? I can't believe you did that! That's so rude and mean! Here, take over for me!" and stood up, "Where is he?" Fenix demanded. "Where I left him." He grinned. Fenix smacked the back of his head with a cuss then ran towards the power core. Lore chuckled as he took his seat and steered.
She found Data switched off and unceremoniously slumped in a chair wearing Lore's outfit. She slid her hand under the shirt reaching under his 'skin' on the side of his torso to turn him back on. He jerked back on in an instant. "Are you alright, Data?" He looked around and answered, "I believe so... Lore, I remember seeing Lore before I blacked out." Fenix sighed and filled him in, "He turned you off and switched clothes. He pretended to be you while he 'innocently' interrogated me." Data looked confused, "Why would he do that?" Fenix monotonously answered, "Because it's Lore... Just how he is." and rolled her eyes, "Come on, Data. Let's go back to the bridge. I need to rip your brother a new one." He inquired, "A new what?" She grinned, "A new asshole. It's a way of saying I'm pissed off at him and he's got one angry wife coming his way."
Data and Fenix walked into the bridge. Lore looked at them with an innocent smile still wearing Data's uniform, "Hello Fenix, it is nice to see you back with my dear brother." He mimicked Data. "Enough bullshit, Lore. Take it off!" She demanded. Lore sighed with a smile and started stripping his clothes off. "Not here! Go switch clothes back with your brother, geez... And never do that to Data again! If you do, I'll switch YOU off next time for a time out." She warned. "You wouldn't dare..." He scowled. "Please go change clothes. I can drive." She reworded with a sigh. Lore scowled and left with Data to change back their clothes. Data pulled his pants up as he asked Lore, "Why did you switch me off?" Lore chuckled, "For God's sake, Data! It was just a joke!" Data's eyebrows knit together in confusion, "I do not see any humour in the situation, Lore. Besides, it was rude." Lore tutted with a smile, "I don't expect you to get it, yet. But someday you will." And suppressed a chuckle knowing he purposely left his answer ambiguous. Someday you'll understand why I am this way. Data's eyebrows knit together feeling perplexed at his brother's words and reactions. What does he mean? I do not understand, Lore. But I have a feeling that is for myself to find out. Is that why you are being unclear? Knowing he wasn't going anywhere with questioning Lore, he stayed silent as he finished changing his clothes.
Lore and Data came back into the bridge, "Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Besides, I can tell you guys apart." and eyed Lore, "I thought something was off when you walked in but I kept brushing it off and then it hit me." She stated with sly smirk. Lore agreed, "Well, I tried. Can't fool Fenix." "What gave him away?" Asked Data. "I'm not gonna say." She slyly grinned. "If I do, then he'll try to improve on pretending to be you and I don't want that to happen. I don't need him trying to fuck with me." Lore smirked, "Just in the sack." Fenix placed her hand over her face, "Oh my god... enough already... ugh..." She face-palmed then continued, "Hey Lore, can you take over? I'm gonna go upgrade Data, besides you kind of owe us one after that prank you pulled." "Yeah, I suppose..." Lore sighed, "Okay, move." With that, Lore took over piloting while Data and Fenix left the bridge to upgrade him.
Data was undressed with a towel wrapped around his lower regions as Fenix worked on his body. She was focused and even his nudity wasn't taking that focus away. Data watched her eyes moving from his arm to find another tool. He closed his eyes every time her hand touched him feeling closeness and clenched his fists on the armrest. "Data, I need you to relax a little bit, please. Can you relax your arm? Is everything alright?" Her eyes were sincere as she made a blue bubble with her chewing gum. Data didn't realize he was tense as he loosened his grip on the chair, "I am sorry, Fenix. I am alright." I was enjoying our closeness as I try to hold myself back from you. I did not know I was tensing. After a while, she was finishing up and stretched out. Sealing his skin on his thigh, before she could retract her hand, he grasped it. Fenix didn't look at him, she didn't dare look up. Instead, she watched his thumb gently caressing her hand. His sunflower yellow eyes held longing as he lifted her hand to his cheek and closed his eyes with a sigh, "Thank you… Fenix." She held in a gasp as she watched him take her hand to his cheek. She smiled kindly, "You're welcome, Data. It was my pleasure." her voice sweet. His eyes opened to see her purple ones and flashed her a faint smile, "I need to dress myself, our close proximity is pushing my limits on pursuing you as we speak." A blush crossed her face with a nod, "Okay, I'll be back at the helm." and left. Data watched her leave, her long mullet swishing behind her. Raising his hand to his cheek, he touched it remembering how her hand had felt against his skin and sighed.
Fenix fluffed her mullet as she walked back into the helm. Lore looked at her suspiciously but pushed aside his assumptions as she took her seat next to him. That's right, as long as you come back to take your seat next to me, we're right as rain. I know you wouldn't betray me. You're too good to that. He smirked in triumph as he placed his hand on her thigh creating circles with his fingers.
Sometime later, they knew they were getting closer to Semita Cealeste when Fenix spotted a nebula of dark purple, violent nimbus clouds with lighting came to view. "HEY! I see something up ahead!" Fenix yelled. As they got closer, they saw them. Giant serpents made of obsidian metal generating lighting and beams of laser-light power emitting from their mouths. They weaved throughout the clouds in a very controlled, synchronized motion.
"Draco Nidum..." Fenix figured.
"Quite literally… beautiful..." Lore's eyes were wide with wonder.
"Magnificent creatures..." Data mesmerized.
Without taking her eyes off the incredible spectacle, Fenix asked, "Data, can you get me that slate from Electi Illiusia? I think there's a way to get through Draco Nidum safely." He nodded and went to retrieve it. Lore took over steering for Fenix. The ride was getting rougher by the minute. Lore added, "If we get any closer, the storm is going to destroy this ship, but that's exactly where we need to go. Right into the storm." Data came back, handed Fenix the slate and sat in the co-pilot's chair, "My internal compass is not functioning, Lore, I cannot co-pilot while I am in this state." "Lore, how's your internal compass?" Fenix asked. "It's fine, you upgraded that a while ago so I'm unaffected." He confirmed. "Data, stay still. This will only take a moment. I'm upgrading you." Fenix grabbed her tools and worked on Data with fast fingers.
"Internal compass is back up and running properly. Thank you, Fenix." Data added, "Those dragons that are generating lightening and some sort of electromagnetic pluses... I think they might have something to do with my recent malfunctions." Fenix scanned the slate, "I found the it! This will open up a safe passage for us." She focused on the scriptures and closed her eyes in concentration. She mentally spoke the words and opened her eyes. Lore noticed her eyes were glowing momentarily as the dragons stopped mid-flight just as they were about to attack the ship, instead they created a tunnel for them. The dragons behind them closed the pathway once again the closer they got to the planet. Hues of purple, blue and green with floating land masses came to view.
"Electi Illiusia..." Lore whispered almost in a trance.
They were getting closer to orbiting Electi Illius, before Data or Lore could scan for life forms Fenix exclaimed, "I can sense them!" Her eyes were wide, Data asked, "Life forms?" She smiled brightly as she replied, "Androids… Lots of them."
