I've been away for quite some time. So, I hope everyone's ready!
Cham: Why were you gone for so long?
Well, you see, I had to get a new computer tower, so I made sure it worked properly.
Brainiac 5: Why wouldn't it work?
It was a projectile for Del. (murmur of exasperation)
Anyway, I'm back, and I've been studying up on Kell-el's reactions, interactions, and his personality, so I could make no mistakes.
So! CHAPTAH!
STARTO!
Kell-el watched as the light began to creep up the side of Cham's face as he slept. The clone hesitated to reach out and brush the soft skin, focused on the numerous bruises marring the flesh. The blancket had slipped during the night, hanging low on the Durlan's hips, painting a provacative picture of his lover.
Sometime during the night, the shape-shifter's form had returned, antennae and big ears included. He was no less lovely to Kell, who curled around the smaller form protectively.
'Why am I so stupid? Last night...Last night, I hadn't meant go so far, and I hurt him. Look at what I've done. I'm always hurting people because of my strength, I didn't even bother controlling myself! STUPID! CLUMSY! CLONE!' Amidst the superclone's inner beratings, Cham had woke up. He realized that he had turned back, and how much his body ached, especially his lower back. Then he recalled the previous night, and smiled. When Kell-el finally snapped out of his mental beat-up, he realized Cham was staring at him with a tiny smile, which didn't hide the nervous look in his eyes.
"Hey..." Came the quiet call. Kell stared, the black in his eyes a little lighter than usual. He waited, then drew their faces closer together and pressed his lips to the Durlans, hesistant and careful. It ended when Kaz leaned back. "Kell...Last night, I..." The clone felt the tensing of his muscles, ready to leave the room, though he admittedly did not want to. Cham looked up from where he had been pretending to examine his knuckles. "Kell, thank you."
It was the LAST thing the clone had expected, and for a few moments he simply stared, fish-facing his jaw open and shut. Then, his face heated up as he motioned to the marks.
"But, I did this! I hurt you, I didn't mean to, but I hurt you, and-" He was cut off, pleasantly, by the Durlan bringing their lips back together. They stayed like that for a few moments, Kell-el enjoying the reassuring warmth his mate, his MATE, provided. When they separated, both were red in the face, and Cham had settled into playing with the long, shaggy black locks of Kell's hair. The clone chose to stare at the Durlan, before testing something he had speculated on earlier.
He careful pressed one of his fingers to the base of Cham's left antenna, just behind it, and ran his finger upwards. The effect was instant; Cham went straight with a low moan, his eyes becoming lidded. Kell repeated the motion, then as his fingers came down he pinched the frontmost ridge between the stalks. He was then surprised yet again as Kaz turned them so that he straddled the clone with a playful gleam in his eyes and a low growl in his throat. The Durlan smirked, trailing his fingers across the broad chest, pressing and prodding against the lines of his muscles.
"I...I can't." Kell-el lifted the wandering hands away from his skin, trying not to reciprocate. Kaz pouted, his hands held back by more powerful ones.
"Why not? You didn't hold back last time." The clone flinched, and it clicked together in Kaz's head. He smiled, and leaned down, catching the superclone off-guard with a soul-searing kiss. "Kell, get this, here and now, through your head. I LIKED it. I wouldn't let you touch me if I hadn't wanted you to begin with. Only a Durlan's one true Other can ever mate with them. I knew you were mine, when I first saw you." Seeing the still-lingering doubt in the older's eyes, Cham sighed good-naturedly. He pounced.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Reki was awakened by a very loud shout, which in turn woke up Saturn Girl, Phantom Girl, and Duo Damsel. She blushed when she realized what the sound was, and muttered the silence spell under her breath.
"Damn hormone-crazed Durlan..." She growled, seeing as she'd have to explain what woke the girls up.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Kell moaned as his cock was taken in deeper by his Durlan. Kaz rubbed his tongue underneath the flesh, making the clone groan obsenities that he would probably be teased about, if they were ever outed. Kaz smiled around the member, and twisted his tongue in a way that made Kell's toes curl up.
"K-Kaz! Ughhh, no-no more! I get it! Ughhhh..." His hips were screaming, wanting to thrust wildly into the warm, wet, tight heat, but Kell held himself back as his Durlan continued to torture him. His back arched and jumped, and Kell felt the familiar fire-in-his-stomach sensation building up. The explosion never came, though, as a few seconds later his cock was released with an obsene POP! from Kaz's mouth. He licked his lips, as though having just dined on some fantastic meal. Which he realized was exactly what he was, seeing the predetorial gleam in his lover's eyes.
"Kell..." That smirk was back, and with the Durlan's eyes, it looked twice as heavy and lusty. "If you don't start believing that I love you, I will make you scream, understand?" The threat was low, and dangerous, and dark, and- Kell dry-swallowed hard, as he felt himself getting harder under the stare. He then began to glower, and flipped them so that he was pinning the Durlan down.
"Why don't I fulfill that threat?" The answer was a catty smirk, which was kissed away, to be replaced by a shy, endearing expression when Kell-el held back for a few seconds. He dove down for a kiss, which was turned into a passionate lip-lock, before he could move again...
"I do love you, you know that right?" The now-spent Durlan said, mussing the sweaty locks of Kell's hair. The clone made a noise, not really a word, and snuggled closer to the orange skin. They smelled of sweat, and sex, and happiness. "We need to clean up, you know. Before the others get up?" Another noise, 'Muuuuuuuuuhhhh' but Kell-el got up, tugging the Durlan into his arms and grabbing their clothes, before running them quickly to the showers. They managed to lower the touching to a minimum, and got back just as Reki exited the room, staring at them. Kell began to glare, and Cham blushed, as she raised an eyebrow. It was an awkward moment as they all stared at each other.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...So, want to pretend I don't know about you two?" That made both of them blush, hard. She smiled, then began to cackle when the others peered out of their rooms at the three. She paused only when Brainiac 5 strolled out of his room, and proceeded to beat Kell over the head with a large lead bat. Reki then collapsed with laughter as Cham grabbed the Coluan's right arm, the left being held back by Superman. As Kell finally recovered, he stared wide-eyed at the genius.
"That is only a taste of what you'll get if you hurt Cham." With that, he strolled back into his room amidst the amused/astonished/neutral looks of his fellow Legionnaires. Reki had nearly passed out from laughing too hard, and lay in a heap, watching as Nivan peeked around the corner at them. She grinned.
"Hi there, odd one." He gave her a bemused stare.
"I'm the odd one? Not the person sitting on the floor, sura?" Reki gave him a blank stare, then nodded. He rolled his one good eye and addressed the entire group. "Breakfast will be ready soon, and Mistress will be with you shortly, sura."
They thanked him and began to get ready. Cham and Superman X watched as the others passed by them with suspicious stares, or in the girl's case, giggling and pointing. The clone almost went after Brainy, but was pulled back by Cham at the last second. The table was once again set with the oddly colored food from before, and Brainy ate his food without looking, not wanting to note that the 'pancake' he was eating happened to be turquoise.
"So, what did you guys find yesterday?" Cham started, spooning something orange and tasting of fruitbeets into his mouth.
"We looked at the field again, but nothing seems to have changed. Then we found an area near th lake that was completely untouched. It was rather odd." Brainy reported, rubbing his chin in thought. "The ground had what seems to pass for vegetation covering it, and there were bugs and small animals around it as well. There was a statue of a dragon." Nivan looked up at that.
"You are talking about Lake Paniel, sura? That statue is the shrine of Nasinga, the great protector of our world-sura." Nivan pointed behind Superman, to a tapestry that depicted a beautiful dragon, long and curled into a spiral around a large gold stone. "Nasinga was said to travel from planet to planet with sun stones, stones that when planted into a large body of rock, would sprout life. It is said that when Nasinga landed here on Ivivian, he used the last of the stones to bury himself under the mountain of Tilpala, from whence every living thing on the planet burst forth. Ever since then, we have looked to the shrine to communicate with the dragon-sura."
Karate Kid looked down at his plate. "That sounds like the ways of old Earth. There were gods, revered to control what happened in the world. They were given gifts and pleas from humans not to destroy the world." Superman nodded.
"But in that case, why would this new monster, Maliba, show up? If Nasinga is that powerful?" Reki posed, sniffing at the crumbling blue and orange cake set in front of her. Brainy frowned and pushed the rest of his breakfast in front of her, having already proven it harmless.
"Maybe it was awakened by Rhaphodos?" The mistress's voice called out, as she entered the room. She had her hands hidden away in her sleeves, and Nivan rushed to his mistress's side. "Rhaphodos is a witch who was exiled from the village many years ago, under the suspicion that she had attempted to kill Nasinga for its power. She threatened revenge, and vowed to destroy the village's happiness. Perhaps this is what she meant?" The mistress rubbed her chin in thought, and with slightly visible sadness.
Cham felt for her, after all, having had to fight to keep his people safe, he knew the feeling of wanting to protect everyone and just falling short of that. If it hdn't been for...He cast an upward glance to the ceiling, trying to imagine what Ron-Carr was doing. If the other shape-shifter hadn't decided to become good, his home planet would've been destroyed. He stood up, pushing away whatever it was he had been eating.
"Let's go witch-hunting, then."
READ AND REVIEW! Okay, now that Cham's back to being a Durlan, the plot will commense in the next chapter!
(Btw, the word count for this chapter is 2011 words. FUCK. YEAH.)
