Chapter Four

The Blarney Stone Job.

Visual: Evening at Reynolds Shipping on Persephone, the crews of the two ships sit in the canteen of the main building having dinner together. Inara and Zoe are extremely pregnant. All are looking happy and laughing and talking together.

River tried to answer Simon's question again. Her first answer was too fragmented for him to understand. She took hold of Jayne's hand and felt his calm wash over and tried again. Without him as an anchor it was impossible for her to use her newly discovered talents.

"If the mind is willing I can see and hear from it. I can project my thoughts back. I can take thoughts and share them in small amounts but it is difficult for me to do. I can make you see and hear what I want on a limited basis. Positive feed back makes it stronger and I can do it easier." The young woman explained.

"I still don't understand." Simon said. He looked more like a refined version of Jayne now that he was Doc Nightshade. His mustache and goatee changed his look and even his language was more like a well educated rim worlder than a core bred doctor. A change his wife Kaylee thought was wonderful.

Finally River shouted, "A snake!" and pointed to the door.

They turned to look and saw a snake slither out the door then disappear. When they turned back to her she sat there smiling holding Jayne's hand.

"My voice convinced you there was a snake; you looked expecting to see a snake. So you saw a snake." She explained.

"Tee wuh duh pee-goo." Mal said looking amazed.

Finally understanding her answer their questions eased and topics of conversation changed.

"Kaylee how is the rebuild of Serenity's engine going? Is she going to be as fast as Dancer when you're done?" Mal asked the little mechanic.

"It's shiny Capt'n. Since 'Nara said to not worry about money we tore her down to her frames and rebuilt her from the bottom to the top!" and Kaylee went on in joy ticking off all the new parts, assemblies and increased performance estimates on her fingers with glee for some time.

After a while she spun down, "We should be done sometime tomorrow sir." She finished looking proud and all smiles. Serenity was still her girl even though now she crewed on the Dancer.

"Mal, Sir Warrick's has helped place most of the people you brought back from New Hope, but there are still a few that could use jobs and they have skills we can use here." Inara suggested subtly.

"Hire those that you see fit 'Nara. I think they would be good folk to have working for us. Lord knows they seen a hard time and could use a bit of help." Mal said to her taking the hint she dropped.

The look she returned to him was genuine and full of love. Malcolm Reynolds was a stubborn man at times but he tried to make her happy. That's not to say he still didn't have his moments of obstinacy. But they were becoming more infrequent.

"Well I don't mean to sound like a turd in the punch bowl." Jayne started. "Other than shootin up pirates and the like, we ain't been off into the black in two weeks. It would be nice to have a paying job. Maybe get a chance to shoot somebody. We got anything lined up?"

"We got an invite from Badger to attend a grand opening of his new club." Wash replied looking around the table. "He said he had a business proposition for us. Could mean work? Maybe we should go look into it."

"A night on the town wouldn't hurt any of us." Zoe added. "It might be the last chance me and Inara get for a while." And smiling she rubbed her rather rotund middle.

"I think you're about done Lamby Toes, your timers poking out." Wash opined as he ran a finger over her protruding navel laughing.

With a quick look around the table Mal saw them all nodding in agreement. "Well it looks like we have a plan then. I'll let him know were coming. Ladies I assume you would like time to get ready so I'll tell him we'll be there in a few hours."

The women went into a flurry of activity. Talking among themselves about what to wear they left the men to go prepare for the evenings events. After a few minutes the men left the table to get ready too.

"Aw baby girl, do I got to wear these pants? They're too tight and cut off the flow to my man parts!" Jayne whined to his wife as he looked into the mirror.

"Chosen garments enhance physical attributes to maximum effect. Besides," She continued in her Dyton colony accent laughing "O'I like the way they make your bottom look, Husband."

Knowing that this same argument of clothing choice was going on with the other three men, Jayne surrendered to his little killer woman. It was a small thing to make her happy so he did it not too grudgingly.

Fade out

Ok home viewers you know what time it is!

Yes time to sing the theme song!

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...

And a pause for station Identification

This is the Bao Bei Network, Don't touch that dial folks!

The ground car stopped in front of an upscale for the area, three storied building in Eavestown. A brightly lit sign in front identified it as "Badgers Right Fine Gentleman's Club". Inside the doors there was a nice lobby complete with a coat & gun check counter that had a pretty girl attendant. The interior of the club was done in reds and gold's. Two large well dressed men stood by the metal scanner leading into the next room.

Inara and Zoe wore saris of fine printed silk. Kaylee glowed in a small but appropriate slave girl outfit and heels. She also wore her collar and chain. But River truly stood out in tight red leather hot pants, jacket and heels. She smiled as Jayne kept thinking how gorram sexy she was. He knew she dressed this way just for him.

The men all having lost their wardrobe battle gracefully looked very shuai in frock coats and string ties. Doc looking roguish with his mustache and goatee sported his black gamblers hat and all the men had a fresh shave. The women were proud of how they cleaned up so nicely.

Before they could check their iron Badger swept into the room. "Greetings and welcome to my fine establishment. Ladies". He said as he bowed and kissed Inara and Zoe's hands, and bowed to Kaylee. Badger nodded to River and just said, "Evening Missus". Knowing full well that to touch her would bring the wrath of the big mercenary or anger the woman. He had no desire to have his bits floating in a jar.

"My William what a lovely place, dah bien-hwa isn't it?" Inara smiled as she complimented the man.

"And with all of you to thank for it too, missus. Your kind recommendations what made it all possible. I owe you all a great debt of thanks." The snappily dressed man gushed. "Please come this way I've got me best table put aside for you. No need to check you guns, you're me trusted guests you are." As he led them through a door marked private.

"We ave food, spirit's and ladies dancing ere on the first floor. Games of chance honest like on the second. On the third is the private rooms, don't run no girls me self but I'm a bit flexible and allow some outside contractors. Me wife keeps an eye out on em." He explained proudly as they walked to a VIP table marked reserved and he sat them down.

As a waitress arrived for their drink and food order Badger told her, "Their money's no good ere tonight luv. Please bring some shimmer wine and anything else they want." She took the rest of their orders and hurried away.

After taking care of his guests needs he made his best pitch to the assembled crew. "Oi've got a job to discuss with you o'i ave." as he looked around to see if anyone else was listening. "Big olliday comin up on Dyton, O'i need a bit o transport back to the old home for me and a bit of cargo. Should bring some right coin, oi'll cut you in for ten per cent."

"Sure o'i know what olliday it tis." River answered him. "Tis Saint Paddy's coming, a wot you got worth coin on Dyton then?" and she read him as she held Jayne's hand.

"Well missus o'i got a rather large piece of the Blarney Stone form Earth that was. Broke it into wee bits o'i did, o'i plan on selling em off back ome. A kiss of the stone gives a man charm of the speech." And he reached into his pocket and pulled out a chip of bluestone the size of his thumb and kissed it, then handed it to the psychic.

"He really believes this is real. I want to have some fun, everybody please play along." River sent mentally to the rest of the crew.

She rolled the stone around and kissed it and looked Badger dead in the eye. "We want thirty per cent. O'I can help you make more coin than even you think you can get William."

"How's that missus."

"O'i was born under a sign o'i was. Me mum taught me the craft like her mum taught her. O'i can summon fairies and the wee folk." and River melodically spoke words from an old language as the man looked nervous and made a hex sign. She clapped her hand together like she caught something. Opening her palms slowly a small bright light twirled around and flew away.

Badger asked, "Was that..."

"A fairy." She finished. "Look over there, one of the wee folk." and pointed.

He saw a wee man in green running from behind the bar with a bottle of Bushmills whiskey through the door to the back. "If you catches him, he's got to give you his pot o gold." She laughed.

"Thirty's the deal missus." They both spat on their palms and shook hands. And Badger took off like a shot after the leprechaun. The other had seen the same thing William had and laughed along with River.

After a time the men started to drink the fine Irish whiskey and had gotten quite mellow. Each time Badger came back into the room searching for the wee man River would give him a little push. Between his conviction that he really saw the leprechaun and Jayne's state of inebriation, her control slipped and more than a few people saw the little man too. She decided that the crowd needed a distraction from her game as it was beginning to overpower her.

She walked to the stage by the table and said something to the girl dancing there and tucked a few bills in her costume. She hurried off the stage and returned with a dart board which she hung nearby.

River stepped on stage and started to dance and disarm her self of the knives she was carrying with a steady thump, thump, then a grind of her hips. Before long all eyes were on her. A man reached out to tip her but she waived the tip of her dagger in a no no fashion and indicated for him to drop the bill on the stage. Two knives thumped into it in the space of the blink of an eye.

As the next song started she removed her jacket revealing the sheer lace top underneath. She danced like a wild animal using the pole spinning and twirling to the fast paced song. Applause and money rained out of the crowd as she finished dancing. Breathing hard she bent at the waist to retrieve her knives and the money while wiggling her leather clad ass to the crowd.

She felt him move toward her and turned, "O'i been bad husband, done went and gone cock teasing again. Look what o'i got." She smiled as she showed him the hand full of money and jumped up over his shoulder. He slapped her ass hard and said, "Bad girl I need ta teach you a lesson." And he carried her off to find the perfect place to teach her.

Mal looked at Inara, "Reckon a trip to Dyton is in the works." And she cuddled up next to him in the booth and ran her hands over him. Wash and Zoe looked just as comfortable bundled together. Kaylee got up and looked at her man, "Come on Doc, your girl needs a little maintenance done, time to get to work." Quickly she looped the end of her chain around his neck and pulled him to follow her. "Work, work, work." He laughed as she led him away.

- - - - - -

The rooms on the third floor were quite nice. Janet Badger ran a tight operation. Clean sheets and cleaned up between uses. She kept the customers in line and the girls safe. When Jayne came out of the stairwell with River over his shoulder she just tossed him a key. Not long after that Kaylee came along leading Simon by her chain and claimed a key too.

- - - - - -

"River girl you're in trouble." Jayne growled. "Done told you not to be taking off no clothes when you're dancin'. Don't want no bunch of drunken hun dans lookin at ya half nekkid woman!" The big man growled forcefully.

"I keep tellin ya but you just don't listen. What do I have to do to make that fact clear?"

"Corporal punishment would reinforce standing orders with maximum efficiency." She looked up at him soft eyed through her long lashes. "She deserves a spanking." She whispered and the look she gave her Jayne got the man all excitable.

He growled and pulled her shorts off. Jayne bent her over his knee and started spanking her firmly each slap in time to his words. "No more taking off your clothes while dancing in public, only for me when we're alone." Sixteen solid strikes slow and deliberate alternated by rubbing his hand on he pretty bottom as if to rub the swats in firmly. Red hand prints showed on her soft skin.

She squirmed and gasped as the alternating pain and pleasure sensations took her. She was wet when he finished, her face flushed and her breathing coming in gasps.

She looks so gorram sexy. The big man thought as he peeled the rest of her clothes off and threw her to the bed. She could hear the thoughts of his arousal and she flushed at the thought of the things he wanted to do to her. He quickly got undressed and joined her.

Pinning her wrists above her head with one rough hand as he ran the other over her body he savaged her throat and neck with his mouth bringing soft moans from her. He sought out the spot below her left ear and roughly rolled her nipple between his finger and thumb at the same time, feeling her shudder she moaned his name. He knew she need more and soon.

Jayne I need you. She sent to his mind. He ceased his teasing and ran kisses down her soft warm body. His mouth descended seeking her swollen hot sexin' parts. Softly he parted her pulsing lips and tasted her sweet nectar. He laved her with his tongue gently eliciting grunts and moans from his lover. She bucked and moaned as he held firm on her swollen nub alternating between soft and rough as River held his head with both hands and ground into his mouth groaning loudly. He felt her spasm and flutter as she went over the edge soaking his face.

He ran a hand over his face and slid next to her. He held her as she shuddered, waiting for her to recover. Soon she had her little fist tightly wrapped around him working him fully hard and erect. She met no resistance as she pushed him to his back while throwing her well toned leg over him. There was a sharp intake of breath from both as she mounted him firmly and barely moved on him just rocking her hips in little circles.

She felt him stretch her as she held him in her soft velvet vise, working her inner muscles against him. He groaned at the sensation of her riding him with his palms splayed out on her thighs urging her on. She looked him in the eyes with a wicked gleam and synced their minds together and rode him like wild horse that needed to be tamed.

Soon it was too much for him and he grabbed her hips and thrust into her hard as they went over the edge together violently finishing together. As they collapsed into each others arms their thoughts were the same. Mine.

They lay together like that a while until they caught their breath soon they were kissing passionately, hands roaming over each other.

Mouth locked to hers he entered her with his fingers stretching her. His strong fingers probed her slick wet inner walls firmly but gently. She got him in her grip and squeezed him in her little fist gently tightening and releasing her grip in time with the thrusts of his digits.

A slow building was coming inside her, a tremor just under the surface waiting to erupt. He worked in and out bringing her to the edge and backed off. Suddenly he attacked her hot sex again seeking that sweet spot she loved for him to touch. She screamed and came as he worked her hot wetness again and again as her climax rolled over her in large waves leaving her limp while sobbing breathlessly.

When she could move again she readied him with her mouth. He didn't need much encouragement. She mounted him again and rode him hard. His previous orgasm made it possible to last longer from her assault. She rocked her hips in time with his thrusts the only sounds the slapping of flesh and their loud grunts of pleasure. They came together fast like a flesh machine made for one propose the sweat rolling down their bodies soaking the sheets with their aromatic juices. Mindlessly they came together one last time and collapsed to semi consciousness.

They lay there a long time in each others arms breathless.

Kaylee led Doc into the room. Various restraints, toys and oils were on a shelf. Making a selection she pushed doc toward the bed and commanded "Strip Capt'n Bad Ass" and let him have a taste of a crop on his backside. "Yes ma'am." he started to say but another strike from the crop stopped him. "That's Mistress Kaylee ta you slave boy. You're doing my evil bidding tonight." She laughed. "If I get too rough just say atmo and I'll quit." She whispered into his ear.

This is dah bien-hwa. Simon thought as she tied him to the four poster bed. She had him tied up in a jiffy and shucked out of her outfit and unlinked her chain from her collar. Now what should I do to him, she thought and looked over to the shelf. Kaylee lit one of the candles and went back to Simon. She slowly dripped wax drops onto his chest and stomach watching him squirm and gasp at the hot wax. "Like that slave boy?"

"Yes Mistress Kaylee." Doc replied enjoying seeing her take control. Kaylee was getting lubed up something fierce having Doc in her evil clutches. "Time ta service me slave boy." She said seriously as she straddled his face. "Git ta lickin slave boy." A muffled "Yes Mistress." was his reply.

She bent forward and teased him into readiness as he took her to the edge then past it. She came with a squeak and a moan flushed and breathing hard. She slid down and mounted him with her back to him and clicked her tongue, "Giddy up.' She laughed as she slapped his side. "Yes Mistress" escaped his lips as he thrust back into her on her downward bounces. Occasionally she would reach back and slap him again. And he would speed up more. Soon they finished at a furious pace. Her first, then he came close behind. She turned around and bit his nipple hard. "Atmo." He moaned loudly.

Kaylee untied her husband, once free Doc turned the tables on her and tied her up in response. He searched the shelf for a something to torture her a little and smiled at her wickedly as he approached with a long feather.

"Same word Darlin'" he drawled and slowly ran the feather up and down her neck watching her squirm.

"No Doc, please don't tickle me!" she giggled and fought her bindings.

"No Lil Darlin' you got this coming to you." And he twitched the feather over breasts and around but not on her nipples teasing her mercilessly as she squirmed and writhed giggling at his ministrations.

Doc was evil with his use of the feather. He slowly searched out the best spots for maximum effect. Her neck and jaw line produced shivers and giggles from the little bound mechanic.

He teased an erect nipple and got another giggle but when he bit the other one playfully a very shuddering moan escaped her lips. Pleased with her response the feather dipped lower to her soft belly and her inner thighs. Slowly he teased all around her hot center without touching it as he mauled her breasts with his rough tongue, her breath coming in pants and gasps instead of giggles. Looking into her eyes he saw the pleading desire of his little bride and set aside the feather. He lightly spanked her lower lips playfully with his fingers and felt them swell in their hot wetness.

Without warning he quickly inserted two fingers curling them up to her G spot and brushed his thumb across her swollen clit. She bucked and screamed her instant orgasm as he roughly continued until she stopped coming. Three times she screamed and bucked and when he ceased stimulating her she laid breathless panting and moaning softly.

Watching a woman come so violently was a great turn on and he was ready so he entered her. Doc rode her hard and fast with full deep strokes. It didn't last very long but she did quivered and faded one more time before Doc finished with a loud low groan

Early the next day Serenity broke atmo and set off for Dyton Colony. Zoe and Inara were both just bundles of energy in the galley at lunch time. Simon watched them both intently. River finally said "Soon." cryptically and left for the cargo bay to spar with her husband.

Badger and his wife sat and watched the couple dance around raining blows and kicks on each other. "It almost looks like a dance."Janet observed. And just that quick it was a dance as they moved into each others arms. "Luv, where's that music coming from?" He asked looking around. "I don't know, but isn't it romantic?" and she cuddled up under his arm.

River loved it when Jayne danced with her. She couldn't contain her joy and the music and passion flowed out of her like her name implied, flooding the ship. Kaylee looked at Doc smiling," They're dancing again Sweetie." and she started humming to the music in her head.

A panicked Wash ran into the galley, "Doc come quick it's Zoe." And he ran back to their bunk.

"Kaylee get my kit from the infirmary please I think it's time."

She took off at a run as he followed Wash.

- - - - -

"You did this to me!" Zoe growled at Wash as the next contraction hit her.

"Not long now Zoe you're fully dilated. Next time push." Doc instructed.

"Breathe Lamby Toes." Wash puffed his breath at her.

"Quit blowing in my face you hun dan, Wuh de tyen, ah, that hurts!" she screamed.

"Push now." Doc said as he saw the baby's head crown. He worked the shoulders gently and the infant slid into his hands. Clearing its nose and eyes a healthy cry sounded. "It's a girl. But were not done yet." He could see another small head crowning. Moments later another healthy cry and he said, "And a boy." He tied and cut the cords and placed the babies on Zoe's chest. Wash was counting fingers and toes telling her how beautiful they were but passed out cold as Doc delivered the afterbirth. Zoe just held their new additions and smiled. "I fought this but Rex and Sara fit them both." But Wash didn't hear her name their children after his dinosaurs. He was so proud when she told him later.

Jayne and River prepared to leave Serenity after it landed ay New Kerry on Dyton Colony. Not as lush and green as it's namesake it still hung on to its traditions and culture. Saint Patrick's Day was a major event here so everyone had some green in their outfits. Badger and Janet watched as they lowered the mule in the cargo bay and loaded the crate full of stone chips onboard.

They pulled to a stop in front of an old wooden storefront and badger took his wife inside. After a few minutes they returned and had Jayne bring the crate inside.

"Genuine article from Earth that was, true pieces of the Blarney Stone they is. Guaranteed to smooth the tongue and silk the speech." Badger claimed.

"Right, you be wanting me to think that, o'ws o'i know for sure then?" Ma Badger asked. "Not like you was ever quick with the truth, son."

Badger opened the crate. River held Jayne's hand and projected her thoughts. As the crate lid fell to the floor a wee man in green jumped out and ran out the door.

"O'ly Mary mother o God." Ma exclaimed crossing her self, "That was a bleeding leprechaun!"

'Told ya I did." Her son replied. "Can we sell them here then Ma?"

She happily nodded her head smiling and thought about all the coin they could make.

- - - - - -

Jayne sat at the table with River drinking Guinness and sipping Bushmills Whiskey and they were both quite mellow. River was having a ball as she made people see leprechauns and fairies. It started small but as Jayne drank and the people were convinced what they saw her area of influence increased. Men and women chased wee men all over the little town never quite able to catch them.

Word spread about Badgers treasures and the small place was full of buyers. Soon they were sold out. Badger counted the share for his mother and handed her the coin. It was more money than she made in half a year.

"I expect you'll be running off right quick now?"

"Got to Mum still got law looking out for me here. Luv ya though come visit me on Persephone sometime." Then he hugged the woman.

They were driving the mule back to Serenity Jayne a little bleary at the controls, weaving just a bit when a foot policeman blew his whistle at them and motioned them to stop.

"Run o'i got warrants here!" Badger said to Jayne. The big man sped up and rounded a corner headed back to the ship. River pushed with her mind and hundreds of little men in green appeared from thin air. Pandemonium broke out as everyone started chasing the hundreds of leprechauns. Even the policeman was distracted and the merry band made it back to the safety of the ship.

River hit the com and told them they had better get into the black quickly. Serenity lifted and broke atmo.

River pulled her husband to their bunk to cuddle and spoon and soon they slept drunkenly and soundly.

Badger found the Captain in the infirmary holding his newborn son. "I think Patrick is a fine name for him 'Nara." He said as he smiled at her.

Badger proffered the sack of coin to the man as the ship left atmo headed for home.
