Aki looked at Eran's curled form. The jump to light speed was some time ago, and the Xenomorph had curled itself up on the smooth metal floor. It wasn't cold in the hold, a comfortable warmth like in the rest of the ship. It wasn't too large, but Eran had felt comfortable. Exhausted, the Xeno had gone to sleep, whilst he was checking his equipment. They had Eran's spear, his wrist blades, the shotgun pistol he still had from his encounter with the governor, and his bare hands. That would have to do.
He slid off his jerkin, carefully folding it.
Eran seemed calmer now, more focused. Aki still couldn't believe the Xeno's speed. He was faster than a bullet.
Whatever Paul had done in Eran's mind, it had dislodged something, something deep inside him.
Slowly, Aki crawled over to Eran, who uncoiled, and raised himself until he was sitting opposite of him.
"How are you?" Aki clicked
Eran nodded his huge head "I am well." He put his talon on Aki's. "I am feeling calm."
Aki caressed the Xeno's jaw. "Are you afraid?"
"No. Not anymore."
"How come? Was it Paul?" Aki felt, involuntarily, a sting of jealousy.
"No." the Answer came immediately. "It was you, Aki'ru."
"But-"
"The moment Paul drew his weapon on you, I knew my path." Eran pulled Aki close, bringing their faces together. "I do not know if there is such a thing as Destiny, but I think our destiny is to be together, whatever comes. I will stand by your side, forever."
Aki looked doubtful "You cannot know that."
"It is not important what we know. It matters what we believe in." Eran moved closer now, Aki feeling the xeno's cool breath on his cheeks.
He closed his eyes, moving his hands behind the Xeno's back, and hugging him tightly, pulling their lips together in a long-drawn kiss.
"I love you, Eran." He whispered.
"I love you too, Aki." The Alien clicked back.
Eran's talon snaked up and down Aki's back, feeling along his spine. The claws were sharp and yet Eran managed to move them with utter care, not hurting Aki.
He pressed the Xenomorph close to him, feeling the smooth skin that coated the exo-skeleton against his exposed chest. He breathed in Eran's scent through his nostrils, and felt his head go light again.
There was still time. They would take some time to reach the Odessa.
He caressed Eran's head and his dorsal tubes, kissing the xeno's neck, feeling Eran's talon slide along his sides. The xeno grabbed Aki's butt, and pressed them together. Aki felt the raw power in those spindly arms, but this time he did not allow Eran to manhandle him.
He detached the Xeno's arms from his back and pinned them down, pressing Eran to the ground, kissing him deeply.
The Xeno hissed, and struggled only slightly. Aki lay down on top of him, kissing him again, and stroking his sides and his butt, whilst Eran was sliding one talon along the yautja's side.
He felt Eran touch his belly, felt his talon slide into his pants, and, forcibly, pulled them down. He shook them off, and kissed his neck. Turning on his back, he allowed Eran to kiss his chest, leaving long strands of xeno drool on his scaly skin.
Eran stroked Aki's chest, his other talon moving along the yautja's muscular body, and reaching for his semi-erect cock. He rubbed it, feeling it grow in his talon.
Moving his maw above it, he carefully extended his inner maw onto it, and started to suck.
He felt his own cock leave its sheath and grow larger as he sucked on Aki's shaft, his drool running down along it.
Aki moaned softly in pleasure, moving his hips, slowly fucking the xeno's mouth. His hands grabbed the long head, and pressed Eran down hard on the cock, and then the Yautja started to fuck the xeno's face properly. Eran hissed in pleasure.
Just when he felt the orgasm rise up in Aki's cock, the yautja withdrew. Eran looked at him with a quizzical expression
"Get on all fours..." Aki said softly.
Eran did so, raising his tail up high, exposing his tail hole. Aki reached for it, rubbing it with his finger. It made the Xeno's body tingle. "Be careful" he whispered, his voice slurred.
"I will" Aki whispered.
Eran felt the finger, slick from his own saliva, being pushed inside him.
It was a strange feeling, after so long, being penetrated again. But he didn't recoil or feel afraid. He could trust Aki.
It felt good, and the xeno hissed in pleasure.
Aki moved his finger out again, softly, and then, Eran felt something larger press against him, slowly, but surely. He felt his tail hole being stretched to accommodate Aki's large shaft.
The yautja stopped for a moment, allowing Eran's rapid breathing to calm down again, and to leave him some time to adjust.
It didn't feel good.
It felt great!
Eran curled his tail around his lover, and Aki slowly pressed further.
It hurt only slightly as the Yautja's cock moved fully into Eran's butt. Aki leaned down to the xeno's back, his arms hugging him softly, and he asked in a soft tone, uncharacteristic for him: "You all right?"
Eran could only nod and moan, every movement that Aki made inside him sending a jolt of pleasure through his system.
Aki slowly started to move his cock inside him, slowly pulling back and pushing back in, and every time, Eran moaned.
He sped up, and Eran squealed, and within seconds, the yautja had flattened the xeno to the ground and was pounding him hard and fast, making loud slapping noises in the progress. Eran's communication had been reduced to large amounts of saliva dripping from his slack jaws and the occasional happy hiss. Cum was leaking from below the xenomorph, he had already cum once. Eran heard Aki roar, and then, he felt him withdraw, and a large amount of hot, green yautja cum covered his ass. He immediately rammed back in, the Xeno feeling the warmth spread inside him, and then Aki continued fucking him hard.
A loud squeal from the control panel had woken Akkan, and he had padded over to inspect it. It all looked all right to him, but nevertheless, he took his time to inspect everything. This was a human ship, and if they wanted one, he'd better understand how they worked.
He had already grasped the basics of spaceflight, Paul had told him in one of their long talks, but he knew the basics weren't enough.
The Door to Jeanne's quarters opened, and a bleary-eyed Jeanne stumbled over to the control panel.
She pushed him aside, gently but firmly, and sat down in the control chair, touching a few buttons. Akkan watched intently, earning a slightly angry look as he accidentally drooled on her shoulder.
"FRED! IT'S FOR YOU!"
Weyland, wearing a shirt and his trousers, and, a fact Akkan found most impressive, devoid of any weaponry, staggered into the room.
"Are we there?"
Jeanne nodded "And it's your guys hailing you."
Weyland pushed Akkan aside as well, who turned around to have a look at the slowly rising Paul. He kissed the human on the nose, leaving a drool patch.
Good Morning
Morning. Paul's thoughts were still jumbled by sleep.
Akkan turned back to watch Weyland interface with the computers.
"Mr. Weyland, Hello." Came a body-less voice over the speakers.
"Sergeant Smyth, how are you today?" Weyland answered.
"I am all right. Mrs. Yutani called me last evening, enquiring where you had gone to."
Weyland cursed "Call up my secretary, tell her I'll be on call standby roundabout tomorrow at noon. I had to visit some friends."
Smyth assented.
Jeanne brought the Shipstern Bluff out of light speed.
"Mr. Weyland, what's the plan?"
"We're going to have to get back on the Odessa. I need your ship to give us radar cover. Fly ahead, and we'll get under your left wing."
"Yeah, about the Odessa. There's been some development."
"Tell me."
Akkan looked out of the window, seeing the other ship manoeuvre around, and the Shipstern Bluff move under the wing.
"Well, we monitor all the hailing frequencies, routinely, and the Odessa has gone dead. There seems to be no communication back to LX-239, nor to other Spaceships."
Ooops.
Quit being sarcastic, there's human lives at stake here. They must have brought the ship containing Blood Moon to the Odessa.
"Mr. Smyth, we are heading for the Odessa. Under no circumstances do you dock your ship. We will dock the Shipstern bluff, get on board, and the two ships will circle, keeping voice channels open. We'll be using handheld communicators to communicate with you."
"I don't think it's a good idea to enter the Odessa right now. We should hail the colonial marines."
"There's something on there I want to deal with before the colonials do."
Smyth was silent a moment.
Weyland nodded a good morning to the rest of them, and then the speakers started up again.
"Mr. Weyland, I'm not a fan of this, but we are in. I should just remind you that there might be xenomorphs on board the Odessa, and, secondly, the Colonial Marines will arrive within the next 48 hours to check on the station."
"Clear. Now let's get going."
Paul had reloaded his revolver, and accepted the ammunition Weyland had given him, even borrowed a shirt and a pair of combat trousers from him. . Akkan was busy flexing and stretching.
Jeanne was still piloting the ship in the wake of the larger Weyland-Yutani vessel.
Weyland had armed himself with an impressive array of weaponry, most of them concealed under his brown overcoat.
The Odessa now loomed large up ahead, slowly turning against the iridescent backdrop of the gas planet.
Jeanne was flying the Shipstern Bluff towards one of the turning spires. Weyland had identified it as a docking area. The Weyland-Yutani Vessel was still above them, but was starting to keep its distance to allow Jeanne room to manoeuvre.
Masterfully, she docked the Shipstern Bluff to the Airlock. After a momentary interface with the computer, Weyland announced that the door would now open.
"I'll power down the engine for a moment to allow me to open the bulkhead to Aki and Eran." Jeanne announced, the engines spinning down with a hiss.
Shortly afterwards, the Yautja and the Xeno were back in the room, crowding it with their large frames. Eran was carrying his spear, and Aki was armed with his wrist blades and a snub nosed shotgun pistol.
They both had two vertical stripes on their cheeks (and in Eran's case on the side of his dome) of dried, slightly glowing yautjan blood.
Weyland slapped his forehead. "Smart, Eran! This way we can recognize you, in case we encounter other xenos." He looked at Akkan. "Paul?"
"Oh, yeah, sorry. We made this…" Paul slipped a watch over Akkan's wrist. "We found it in the colony. It's pretty shiny and you'll be able to recognize Akkan, should we get separated."
Weyland looked at the watch, and then reached for it "May I?"
Akkan nodded and Weyland examined the watch.
"Do you guys know what this is?"
Paul shook his head "It's a human watch."
"Yeah it is. It's a 2095 Rolex! It's pretty rare!"
Akkan grinned and nodded at Weyland.
Paul translated "Akkan says it suits him. He's a rare xeno as well."
That made Weyland chuckle "I suppose so."
"He doesn't like wearing it though."
"We should get going."
Jeanne closed the bulkhead behind them and spun the engines back up. Weyland handed each of them (except Akkan, who pouted) a communicator. "Keep those close."
Then, he manipulated the Airlock, and it slid open. "Let's go."
The first thing Aki felt as he stepped off the Shipstern Bluff and into the Odessa was the cold. It wasn't really cold, but Aki felt it as if the temperature had suddenly dropped.
The presence of something powerful.
He squared his shoulders, as the Airlock door slid shut behind them.
Now was the time.
