Chapter 15

Kim ducked to the left. The spear head only just missed her shoulder and did skin her armour.

"Concentrate!"

"I AM!" she squealed and jumped as Katel shot his shoulder canon at her. It missed and hit the floor besides her. "That is IT!" Kim threw her head back and screamed with all her might. She was fed up of playing 'target practice' for Katel and 'cat and mouse' with him. all day Katel had attacked her, not letting her leave for anything and well…she needed a break before she broke. Kim ran at him and mimicked his roar. Katel became excited and had been waiting all day for her to go on the offensive. He ducked as she tried to punch him square in the face. She recovered and brought her elbow back to clip the back of his head. Katel tumbled slightly and span round…only to see no one. They didn't have their cloaking devices, so she wasn't invisible. He sniffed at the air and listened carefully. He heard the clang of the metal from her metallic skirt as she ran from one golden pillar to the next. She was behind him and unaware that he knew where she was. She had to end this and fast if she wanted to get out f this room and get some rest. She was exhausted. I am sorry but 8 hours of constant training would make the terminator need a power nap!

Staying perfectly silent Katel stood still. He would wait for her to make the first move. Kim crawled quietly up the pillar and looked down on him. She unclipped a dagger like knife and threw it to the other side of the room. Katel immediately span round and caught it. But he was facing the wrong way and Kim jumped from one pillar to the next, without his knowledge. He threw his dagger at her last position he new, only to not hear her yelp. He turned and saw that she had moved. He didn't know where she was. So he growled in anger and that was it. The moment that Kim had been waiting for. She sprang from her pillar and landed on his shoulders. He hissed in surprise and flung himself around in circles, trying to throw her off. He couldn't aim the gun at her as she had kicked it clean off his shoulder. Kim smirked and pulled his mask of. She clipped it to her own belt and held her legs tightly around his neck. She then swung round so that Katel froze still, blushing to where his face was…

She reached down and took a tight hold of his ankles while he was still. She pulled hard and made him fall backwards, taking her with him.

"Had enough yet? Or would you like to carry on a little later. after all, you don't look in the right frame of mind to train anymore." Kim giggled from above. She was sat over his face with her legs still around him, but hovering in a very naughty position over his face.

"You are a very bad female. I think you need to be punished!" he flung her onto her back and crawled up her body, between her legs and facing her. "Do you accept your punishment and take it like a warrior?"

"I will. But not now." Kim popped her hips and pushed Katel onto his back, her riding him ontop. "I need a shower. I am just ever so…" she leaned down and removed her mask. She leaned into him and continued her sentence in his ear. "…Dirty…" she giggled as she felt him grab her hips and roar loudly. well, groan, but it was loud enough to be a roar.

"I think maybe we should continue from where we left off. Before there was the compulsion to train."

"Then let me have a shower and I will."

"Why?" he ran his hands up her sides unclipped her upper armour and cupped her breasts slowly. "You're only going to get sweaty again."

"Bad, bad boy. Shower, your test, then bed."

"I thought the test was in bed?"

"Not necessarily."

"Then which location will I need to meet you to take my test?"

"Well." Kim bit her lip and couldn't continue. Katel had started to massage her breasts slowly. "Well…" she felt a wave of musk hit her nose as a familiar poking resumed in between her legs. "Well I need a shower…do you?" He clattered his mandibles and sat up, still cupping her breasts.

"I might…will you be there."

"I will have my shower first. But…you could join me. if you wanted to."

"Let me answer that question for you." He raised his knees and pressed her back against them. She bit her lip again as Katel slipped his hands onto her stomach, and up her shirt to their previous position, minus the clothing. He had ripped her mesh clothing in battle so she had to take it off earlier. So after the armour came off, there was nothing keeping Katel from making her topless.

He then rubbed his mandibles against her collar bone and nibbled on her hungrily.

"Can I take that as a yes then?" he slipped his hands once more and they came to rest on her bum. He gripped her tightly and lifted her off the floor, into his arms and head out the door.

"That is not all you take." Kim giggled and was only silenced when Katel filled her mouth with his tongue. Their kiss started off sweet, but soon became heated as passion drove them to need more, want more. Kim ensnared his neck with her arms and pulled him deeper into her mouth. Katel had been waking in autopilot as his full attention had been taken by the topless, aroused, human female in his arms. Katel was just about to step into his room when.

"BEEEP, BEEEP.!"

"URGH!" Katel growled and looked towards the control room.

"Let me guess." Kim hopped down and huffed. "They have a Queen and it has become active?"

"Yes. We need to do nothing but rest tonight for tomorrow, we hunt." Katel was so excited about the hunt…but he didn't like that he wouldn't be able to prove himself a worthy mate to Kim. They would need their rest. It wouldn't have been too bad, but they had trained all day and needed rest anyway. Now they needed rest even more. So he would have to keep his hormones in check for now. "Kim, we need to rest my sweet."

"I know." Kim sighed. She smiled, but couldn't hide her disappointment.

"We need our rest for the hunt. we really."

"I know Katel. Don't worry. I will see you tomorrow ok?"

"Very well my sweet."

"My sweet? Have you gone soft?"

"Would you prefer me to…never mind."

"Was that a little bit of a temper tantrum there? It is you that doesn't want to be intimate. Don't get frustrated at me."

"Let us look at it this way." He encircled his arms around her and pulled her closer. "I promise to take you tomorrow and when I do, it will be in celebration of your first hunt."

"I hope I am ready."

"You will do fine. You have skill for a novice in our ways."

"But Katel my dear." She slinked past him and closed the door. "I wasn't talking about the hunt." she smirked and closed the door on him, holding a giggle as he growled after her. "Oh just you wait Katel. After tomorrow. Nothing will stop us from being together.

On Earth

"AAAAA!"

"My Queen!" once again Terre awoke in a yell and looked to her friend.

He was looking down at her with his eyeless face, worried as usual.

"Oh Damon, it's alright. I just was startled that's all. Did you shake me?"

"Yes my Queen. You must rise. You are complete."

"Huh?" Terre wiped her eyes and yawned loudly. She then closed her mouth after noticing that Damon was staring again. He is doing that a lot lately… "What do you mean complete?"

"I mean." Damon was crouched over her and rubbed his face against her neck. This was not like Damon at all. Sure he had been close and friendly with her. But he seemed…different.

"Y you mean what?"

"I mean that you are finally complete. You are…a full Queen."

"I thought I was already a Queen."

"Yes you were. But now you are..." Terre raised an eyebrow and became very worried when Damon began to purr and coo in her ear.

"But now I am what? And what are you doing." she giggled as his teeth were tickling her skin.

"I am showing my Queen just how special she truly is. Is that a crime?"

"You are acting differently. Is this to do with when you said that you would act differently once you were a warrior?"

"Once I am a warrior? But my Queen…" He huffed and blew her black hair away from her face. Wait…black?

"eep! When did my hair turn black?" she pulled her head back and felt her hair. Only two thick bangs of hair at the front of her hair was back. The rest was still blonde. So she still had her natural blonde hair, but had a black fringe. She laughed as she saw navy reflect off her hair from the lights. "Just like you…" her smile faded slightly as Damon crawled over her again. This time dominating her. He rubbed his mouth against her neck and purred deeply. "Damon I really thing that you should…"

"Hello Miss Jones. If you two have quiet finished I have that gift for you I promised you." She scrambled around to get away from Damon. He just followed her around like a love sick puppy. She noted to stay away from him for a while…at least until he became normal and not so clingy. She put her collar on and saw that the man who had interrupted her was none other than that sleaze ball Ivan.

"Hello mister dickhole." She gasped and covered her mouth. Never had she been so fowl mouthed in her life.

"Nice to see you too my dear. Do you want to know why I am in such a good mood?"

"Why not?"

"Because my dear." He stalked towards the cage entrance and smirked at her through the bars. "I have had the basement cameras removed, and all surveillance devices and recording devices removed. To give you your privacy. As no one wants to see…well I will let you find out."

"Find out what?" although she had herself only told Damon yesterday that she was perfectly safe…she couldn't hide her fear from the evil and sadistic smirk on Ivan's face.

"That you will be a proud mother yet. And you have a new 'cage mate'. I wonder if you give him a name too."

"What are you talking about you putrid little creature. I should snap your disgusting neck for just looking at me like that you spineless meat bag." Even Damon shuddered at the malice in her voice. Her ever so sweet voice didn't sound so innocent anymore…not anymore…

"Then don't let me keep you any longer you Xenomorph whore!" Ivan nodded at the steel doors and another cage came through them. Terre took her collar off and looked to a dazed Damon.

"I thought you said that you were the last one left from the last Queen."

"I am. That is not from our hive." She shivered and backed away from the entrance. The cage door opened and sealed the smaller cage to the large pen. Both doors opened in unison and a low hissing growl erupted from the cage. Damon leapt forwards and snarled at the shadow in the cage. Terre had never seen Damon as fumed, or was that afraid? In many past events in history, one side would tell the leader or hero to be livid and angry, but brave and heroic. Where the other side told them to be scared, but too brave and heroic to back down. Damon was acting like the latter and that scared her even more. Why did he look unsure about standing between her and the creature? Because he shouldn't be stood between me and the creature. He shouldn't be in danger's way. I should.

"Damon came back. He might not even want to hurt us."

"My Queen he will not hurt you…but he will…"

"He will what? WHAT IS IT THAT EVERYONE ELSE KNOWS THAT I DON'T?" Terre panted, furious that even Damon knew something that she didn't. Everything about her situation annoyed the living hell out of her. She was trapped in a cage, treated like an animal, Ivan and Snide were up to something, Damon was acting weird and now a new Xenomorph arrives on the scene and everyone knows something she doesn't.

"My Queen. Remember back to when I said that you had certain duties to perform. What were they?" Damon didn't take his eyes off the larger Xenomorph. He was twice Damon's size, spikier, had more muscles and looked deadlier.

"To rule and look after the hive."

"What do you have to do to get a hive?" the large creature sniffed at the air and growled towards Terre. This she didn't like.

"Damon? Why is he looking at me like that?" it started to stalk towards her and Damon snarled at it, trying to make it get back.

"WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET A HIVE?"

"The Queen lays the eggs, they hatch and it goes from there right?"

"And how does the Queen lay the eggs? Where do the eggs come from?"

"Erm the Queen? I don't know." Panic was starting to settle in and all Terre wanted to do was run away. But the bars that were now digging into her back let her know that there was no escape.

"Remember what you said to me. how you got your name. you told me about you being born. But what did you say to me about what your parents did?"

"They came together and…oh my GOD!"

"Now you get it."

"He wants to make me pregnant?"

"He wants to fertilise you so that you can make a hive. He will see you as a Queen and feel it to be his duty to take you and help you lay eggs."

"Well tell him that I don't need any help thank you very much." Terre whimpered, but Damon sighed. That didn't help her nerves much.

"It isn't that simple my Queen…you see. I agree with him."

"WHAT?" Damon turned his back and sat against the cage wall. Leaving a clear path for the older warrior to get to Terre. "Damon what are you doing?"

"You are a Queen. You need to become fertile to have children." He hung his head and looked away, not happy that he would have to be in the same cage as Terre as this happened. She would no doubt scream. He really didn't want to hear her scream. It would tare him up inside. Well, what wasn't already torn from letting this warrior claim his Queen. "It is what is best…for the good of the hive…"

"What about me? What about the good of the Queen? Damon I thought you wee my friend? Damon!" Terre began sobbing, not liking how the distance between her and the new creature was slowly getting smaller and smaller and smaller.

"Forgive me my Queen…" The warrior launched at her and sunk his teeth into her trouser leg, dragging her into the middle of the cage. "Forgive me…"
