61. New Recruits

-chapter 61-

Like what was becoming increasingly common I woke up in bed between Phoebe and Kitty.

Phoebe woke up first this time.

"Goodmorning Cj." She said sounding really tired.

"Morning baby girl." I replied, sounding just barely more awake.

"What's going on?" A confused Kitty tiredly asked, apparently just waking up.

"It's the start of a new day." I replied.

"Does it have to start now?" She asked.

"We're all awake, so yeah pretty much." I replied as I rolled onto my back so I could pull both of them close.

"Awwwe." She said.

"So what we going to do?" I asked.

"We need to make breakfast so we can't be here too long." Phoebe said.

"Or just you can make breakfast and I can stay here with our husband." Kitty said.

"Oh, are you going to get in the shower with him?" Phoebe asked.

"No, but . . ." Kitty started to say.

"You know Kitty, we have fun in the shower every morning it's our tradition." Phoebe said.

"As long as we have a big enough shower." I said.

"We never did that." Kitty replied. "We just kind of had fun in bed sometimes."

"Yeah well it's your choice Cj. Either me in the shower or her in bed, either way I need to get going before Saphy starts wasting all the pancake mix." Phoebe said.

"Kitty I have to go with Pheebles, we had a lot of fun last night, so." I said.

"Good choice. Let's go." Phoebe replied as she got out of bed with a sudden burst of energy.

"See you at breakfast." I said before kissing her on the cheek and following Phoebe to the shower.

-a few minutes later-

"So you never had sex with her in the shower even once?" Phoebe asked as I gently "washed" her boobs.

"I fucked her in the pool once, but no, never in the shower, she still hates water. Even though she doesn't even have any fur as a lilithmon. Anyway have you thought about maybe letting her be my wife too?" I asked.

"Well Cj, I don't think I'm comfortable sharing you with her all the time, I want you to myself sometimes, and if she became your wife as well I don't know how that would work, so, I know how bad she wants it, but I'm not comfortable with it." Phoebe said.

"Yeah I get it Pheebles, but what about you and Saphy?" I asked.

"I'll try to work things out with her so we can still be friends." Phoebe said. "I'll let Kitty have you on occasion because she took care of you all those years, but, you're mine, always and forever."

"As long as I can say the same about you." I said.

"Of course." Phoebe replied.

"Now I think it's my turn to wash you." She said as she turned around.

"You think so?" I asked.

"Oh yes." She replied as she got on her knees.

After our normal morning ritual, we headed up to the kitchen to begin making breakfast where Saphy and Kayla along with her baby were already waiting. As usual Phoebe eventually decided she didn't want me in there. Well she didn't have much of a choice because today I decided I wasn't going to leave the kitchen no matter what.

"Cj get out." Phoebe calmly said.

"No no no, we're not doing this again." I said. "You know you can't push me out. And you don't want to risk hurting me with your powers."

"Yeah, but if you don't leave then nobody will get breakfast because I'll just stop cooking." Phoebe said.

"Then I'll cook." I said.

"I won't let you." Phoebe replied.

"Pheebles you're going to burn the pancakes." I said.

"Yeah well, sacrifices have to be made." She said as she somewhat discreetly used her powers to turn the stove off.

"For what?" I asked.

"To get you out of here." She replied.

"Why?" I asked.

"What are you poisoning the food or something?" I asked as she turned away from me to tend to the pancake that was cooking behind her.

"No, because I like cooking and I'd rather do all of it myself." She said as Kayla entered the room.

"He needs more formula." She said.

"You remember how to make it?" Phoebe asked.

"You just mix it with milk and put it in the microwave right?" She asked.

"Right, how much and how long?" Phoebe asked.

"Three cups of milk, three spoons of powder, for thirty seconds." Kayla said.

"Good, go ahead and make it." Phoebe replied.

"How come she's allowed to cook?" I asked.

"Because she needs to learn." Phoebe replied. "And she's not really cooking she's just making formula for your baby." Phoebe said as she set a fully cooked pancake onto a plate and poured more batter into the pan.

I wanted to say that it wasn't mine, but his mother was right there so I hesitated. Also because she was here, Phoebe stopped trying to force me out of the kitchen until she left a couple minutes later. This allowed me to load up the toaster with bread. Phoebe stared daggers at me as I did so, but soon returned to tending to the pancakes she was making.

"Are you really that mad at me for using the toaster?" I asked in disbelief.

"No, but I am annoyed that you won't leave." She replied.

"I just want to help my baby girl make breakfast what's so wrong with that?" I said.

"Nothing, but I'd rather do it myself. So get out." She replied as she adorably tried to push me again.

"Can I watch?" I asked.

"I can't trust you just to watch." She said.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked.

"No." She replied.

"Can I give you a big ol hug?" I asked.

"No, you can leave." She said.

"Oh come on Pheebles." I replied.

"Actually, you know what if you want to help leave me alone and go set the table." She said.

"Oh allright." I replied before grabbing five plates and a handful of silverware from one of the cupboards. I set the table and then sat in my usual spot. Things were pretty quiet until Kitty finally stumbled in and sat next to me.

"Good morning." She said as she entered the room.

"Morning Kitty Kat." I replied.

"Good morning Kitty." Saphy said.

"Good morning," Kayla said which just caused Kitty to angrily glare at her for a few seconds.

"I didn't say good morning to you." Kitty grumpily said a few moments later.

"Why not?" Saphy asked.

"Kitty let's not have a repeat of yesterday please." I said.

"We still have to think of a name for the baby." I said.

"Mhm." Kayla agreed.

I spent the next few minutes trying to talk them out of naming the poor child something completely ridiculous until Zari finally arrived, looking somewhat imposing in her Zelusian military uniform.

"Good morning." She said, to which everyone replied in turn.

A few moments later Phoebe emerged from the kitchen with several plates stacked with food floating behind her.

"Breakfast is ready." She said as she sat down across from Kitty and I, the plates gently coming to a rest on the table slowly, but with ridiculous precision.

"Well I think this could be my last breakfast on this ship." Zari said.

"You look like you're ready to go." I said.

"Mhm. I'm going to head in after this." Zari replied.

"We'll miss you." Phoebe said.

"Just get ready, I might not be gone as long as you think." Zari said. "Here take this card in case you need to buy something, but you know, don't get too ridiculous or I will cancel it. "

"Right, thanks Zari." Phoebe replied.

"So Pheebles any new suggestions on what to name the baby?" I asked. "Saphy already suggested table, plate, and fork."

"William?" Phoebe suggested.

"You want to name a baby that's not yours after your father?" I asked.

"Wait no, not really." She said.

"Lyle." She said a few moments later.

"Not bad I guess." I replied.

"Little baby Lyle. I like it." Zari said.

"You got any ideas Zari?" I asked.

"Nothing you wouldn't find strange." She said.

"What if Lyle is strange here?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't know, good question though. If he's going to grow up on this station he should probably have a name that's popular on this station." I said.

"Yeah but how do we find that out?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't know, talk to people. Next time you all go to the club get the names of other girl's husbands, boyfriends, or sons. You could probably go tonight." I said.

"If you'll watch the baby." Phoebe replied.

"Of course." I replied.

"I'll stay with Cj." Kitty said.

"No you will not." Phoebe said.

"But what if he gets lonely?" Kitty asked.

"Then he knows where we'll be and he can come find us, I'm not leaving you alone with him, besides we need your help." Phoebe said.

"Anyway, Zari you might as well give it a shot. What's a popular Zelusian name for boys?" I said.

"Xylax, Goygol, Virvuchee, Lee, Allkavar, depends on the station though of course, those would work on the Zelusian homeworld stations, but on some of the Zelusian held planets, Lyle would fit in just fine." Zari replied.

"What about this one?" I asked.

"I don't know, I'd have to get to know this place better, which I obviously don't have time for. It's not a Zelusian homeworld station though, they made us memorize all of those." She replied.

"Zylax wih a Z?" I asked.

"No a symbol that's pretty much their equivalent of an "x" I can write it out for you if you want. " Zari replied.

"So Kayla, any of those sound cool?" I asked.

"I don't know." She replied.

"I think we'll try to get to know this place better first before we pick a name for him." I said.

"Sounds like a good idea." Phoebe agreed.

A few minutes of quiet eating occurred.

"Zari let me know when you're ready for your goodbye hug." Phoebe said when breakfast was near its end.

"Goodbye hug?" Zari asked.

"Did you think we would just let you leave without a hug?" Phoebe asked.

"Well, no, not really." Zari replied.

"Don't make it too awkward I might see you tomorrow for all I know." Zari said.

"I hope so." Kitty replied.

"Just remember the fun we had last night, don't do anything stupid and don't die." Phoebe said.

"I'll try not too. Anyway I can't eat anymore so I guess I should get going." Zari replied.

Phoebe cut her off before she could leave the room and hugged her before beckoning the rest of us in.

Only Saphy joined.

"Pheebles she's an admiral show some respect, anyway goodluck Zari, not much I can say that Phoebe didn't say already." I said.

"Mhm, hopefully this won't take too long." Zari said before Phoebe let go of her and allowed her to leave.

Phoebe stood and watched her before she disappeared into the stairwell, then she turned around and took her place beside me.

"Well there she goes." She said.

"Yep." I replied.

"Good thing we don't have to go anywhere now, she knows Zelusian space way better than I do." I said.

"Anyway what do you wanna do today Pheebles, besides some clubbing?" I asked.

"I don't know, we could explore the station." She suggested.

"How are we gonna do that?" Kitty asked.

"Easy, we leave the ship, rent a car or scooter, buy tram tickets, or whatever the most convenient mode of transport here is, and then we go for a ride." I said.

"Can I go?" Kayla asked.

"You should probably stay here with your baby." Phoebe said.

"Yeah you and Kitty in the same car doesn't sound like a good idea." I replied.

Some stations relied entirely on public transport, some were entirely private, others were the typical hybrid system. Of the private transport options, some had regular cars, some had hover cars, some only had hoverbikes or scooters. This particular station made use of maglev trains one on every level which ran around in a circle with 8 stops along the edge and 4 tracks with four synchronized trains, 2 running clockwise and 2 running counter clockwise, all of which had compartments for both passengers and cargo . The main floor of this station was about 50 miles in diameter. In case you wanted to know the size of these things, they're not very small at all. If you thought the havocs were big, as well as team rocket's flying bases, they were nothing compared to the size of an average station, and this one was fairly average. In addition to the outer loop trains there were also 2 longer "Figure eight" trains that shared two stations on opposite sides of the inner 2 tracks of the outer loop, but also stopped at a station in the center. Through computer magic, the trains were all pilotless and synchronised, Aside from that, there was a variety of privately owned electric cars, which could be driven on metal roads and even across multiple levels via large elevators, there were also rental, taxi, and bus services available. The main floor, as usual, was like a large shopping mall mixed with an airport, and a commercial district, while also containing a variety of tourist attractions, and also having the highest ceiling, usually over 1000ft Lower floors contained factories, and a number of general goods that were easier to make on station than be imported from surrounding planets, such as dairy products, while the lowest floors were basically sewage and maintenance tunnels and also inaccessible by vehicle. The upper floors were reserved for farms, as they had the easiest access to natural sunlight, via a giant, glass roof with a sealable, retractable metal shield in case of damage. With several residential floors surrounding the main floor. The whole thing was basically a fully functioning, self-contained city. It was even capable of jumping around space and moving, albeit at glacial speeds, most stations won't move beyond 10mph without jumping, to avoid complicated disruptions to internal systems. Defences were also plentiful, enough to scare off fighters and smaller warships, but given it's huge size it would never be able to beat a dedicated capital ship, that said, if a station of this size were to come under attack, the Zelusians were not just going to sit still and let it happen. And the whole station could easily escape by jumping, which made attacking it basically suicidal and pointless. Stations are literally the largest class of ship, and can range in size from anywhere between a 5 mile in diameter outpost to a colossal 200 mile in diameter metropolis. Most of them are circular in shape, built largely out of metal from the Zelusians or the U.S.C, some of them are just cobbled together out of old heavy transports and capital ships at which point they're reffered to as a cluster instead. Due their size and the immense power required to get such a large object into orbit, the vast majority of stations are built in space, not at planetary shipyards, where design constraints are a lot looser. This also means the majority of stations aren't designed to ever land on a planet's surface. Doing so would be no better for the planet than for the station itself.

Anyway we left the ship, and then pretty quickly found a car rental kiosk, neither Kitty or Saphy could drive so we ended up picking a sedan, after a short walk we retrieved our car and went for a ride. It was electric, the batteries were full, it kind of looked like a ford flex with a Chrysler 300C back end tacked on for no apparent reason other than more trunk space and it was somehow boxier. Thankfully it was pretty comfortable inside though. Performance seemed pretty average, it probably had around 300hp, typical modern sedan. I was kind of disappointed they didn't have hovercars.

Anyway, the main floor was very busy, so driving around it wasn't very exciting, the residential floors would be much more empty this time of day, and while some stations didn't give outsiders access to those floors, this was not one of those.

"Where are we going Cj?" Phoebe asked when there was finally a break in traffic.

"To the residential area." I said.

"Why so we could look at a bunch of houses? I thought all the fun stuff was on the main floor." Kitty said.

"It is, but it's also insanely busy and we have multiple days to spend here, so why don't we spend one checking out the side of stations tourist normally don't see?" I asked.

"Because tourists don't want to see them." Phoebe joked.

"When did you get so pessimistic?" I asked.

"Oh I'm sorry I'd absolutely love to go looking at other people's houses with you Cj, it sounds so much more exciting than dancing, movies, a bar, or even that nearby amusement park over there." She said with heavy sarcasm.

"What you want to drive?" I asked.

"Mhm." She replied.

We stopped to switch seats.

-2 hours of sitting in traffic trying to get to the "nearby" amusement park later.-

"This is stupid." Phoebe said. "I could have teleported us there and be fully recovered by now."

"Yeah see what I mean? You can't just have a nice relaxing drive here it's too busy." I said.

"Mhm." Phoebe replied.

"Can I drive now?" Kitty asked.

"Does she know how to drive?" Phoebe asked.

"Not unless she got a license without telling me. Last I heard she tried, wrecked her ex boyfriend's car and failed." I said.

"Then no, you can't drive." Phoebe said.

"It wasn't my fault, the truck's brakes were faulty." She said.

"No they weren't they proved that in court." I said.

"You were there?" Phoebe asked.

"Had nothing better to do." I replied.

-1 hour later-

We finally got out of traffic and made it to the elevator to the next higher level. Which resembled a large suburban neighborhood, complete with somewhat alien looking 2 story houses, fenced in yards, and the occasional park, with a large school campus in the center flanked by a few bars and restaurants, the central maglev station, and convienience stores. Aside from the low ceiling of only about 300ft, and the large metal walls encompassing the entirety of the thing, it looked like a good and proper middle class neighborhood, which was the intention of course, to bring all the comforts of living planet side in to space. The ceiling displayed a bright blue sky with occasional clouds floating across it in a realistic manner.

"Your right Cj this is way better." Phoebe said.

"All these houses look the same, it's boring." Kitty said.

"At least we're moving and nobody is beeping at us. Hey Cj can we stop for lunch?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah sure, I think most of the restaurants are towards the center." I said. We reached the center about 15 minutes later, most of it was dominated by a huge university complex that basically taught students from a kindergarten level all the way up to a selection of college courses. About 50% of all kids on the station attended school here. With others attending smaller schools along the edges. The nearby bars and restaurants were frequented by many college aged students. While younger students had to deal with normally terrible school lunches on school grounds. This meant that the general area was a bit busier than the rest of the floor, but still not nearly as bad as the main floor. There were plenty of restaurants to choose from, but our choice was difficult because it was hard to tell what kind of restaurant each place was, aside from a certain chain that was basically the McDonald's of this universe.

"Hey there's a zoidburgers" I said.

"Wow, all this way to eat at zoidburgers." Phoebe said.

"Oh you've heard of them?" I asked.

"They're everywhere Cj." Phoebe replied.

"And they're delicious." Kitty said.

"I tried it once, I don't care for it, they're really greasy and the grease they use tastes like magcargo." Phoebe said.

"Avoid the zoid or you food will be destroyed." Kitty sang, referencing their commercial jingle.

"You've had magcargo before?" I asked.

"Well no, but things that look like magcargo, but were cold and green. You can't eat a magcargo silly it'd melt your face off." She replied.

"So you mean snails?" I asked.

"I think so yeah." Phoebe replied.

"Where did you eat snails?" I asked.

"A long time ago on a station far far away." Phoebe replied.

"Let's go somewhere else." Phoebe said.

"Well where to then Pheebles?" I asked.

"I don't know, what's that place with the blue sign?" She asked.

"I don't know, some kind of restaurant, I think." I said.

"Let's go there." She said.

"Ok sure." I replied.

"Let's just hope they know English." I said, as the sign was in an unknown alien language.

"I can translate if they don't." She replied.

We parked the car, went in, got a table and sat down.

The waitress gave us a bunch of menus, which surprise surprise we couldn't read. So Phoebe closed her eyes and went to work figuring out the words for what other people were ordering. The menu also had pictures though, so we could point to things to order them too. Which was how Saphy and Kitty figured out what they wanted. I just let Phoebe order for me, which could very easily backfire, but oh well.

"So what did you get me? snails?" I asked.

"I don't think they serve snails here." She replied. "Don't worry you'll probably like it. Unless your taste has changed in 100 years."

"Eh, not really." I replied.

"Then we'll be fine." She said.

"What did you order for yourself?" I asked.

"Some kind of sandwich, I don't know what's all on it." She replied.

"What if it ends up being just solid crunchy mayonnaise?" I asked.

"Ew, noo, you know I hate mayonnaise." She replied.

"I like it." Kitty chimed in.

"That's great, you can have all of it if they give me any. Also what in the world is crunchy mayonnaise please tell me that's not a real thing." Phoebe asked.

"Not as far as I know, but who knows?" I replied.

"It better not be." She said.

"What are you going to do if it is?" I asked.

"I will, I don't know, but it better not be." She said.

"What's mayonnaise?" Saphy asked.

"It's um, fat and eggs and I don't really know. It's allright with bread though." I said.

"It's a thick white liquid that tastes like yuck." Phoebe added.

"It does not it just has a somewhat strong taste which Phoebe doesn't like." I said.

"Oh I see. What's it taste like?" She asked.

"Like mayonnaise. I can't really think of anything to compare it to." I replied.

"It's yucky." Phoebe added.

"Allright well, anything else you wanna say Pheebles before our food comes?" I asked.

"I don't know." She replied.

"What do you think of the atmosphere of this place?" I asked.

"There's a lot of young people." She replied.

"Yeah, it's weird to think how old we are compared to them isn't it?" I said.

"Mhm, considering we don't even look that old." Phoebe said.

"We're not that old." Saphy said.

"We're all over 100 atleast." I replied.

"Is that old?" Saphy asked.

"Yes, for a human." Phoebe replied.

"When are we going to get in another fight again?" Kitty asked.

"You mean with Pheebles?" I asked.

"You wanna go right now?" Phoebe asked as she glared at her.

"Pheebles calm down." I said.

"I'm joking." Phoebe explained.

"No I mean against evil bad guys." Kitty replied.

"Well we're waiting on Pheeble's time machine so we can get back to the digital world and fight deusmon and the rest of those dark kings. There's not much point in fighting anything else right now." I said.

"Oh, ok." Kitty said.

"Did you just forget?" Phoebe asked.

"It's easy to forget when not much is going on." I said.

"The only thing I'm worried about is that we may need more practice." Phoebe said. "Every opponent we've faced here has been really easy. Once we get back to the digital world things could get more difficult."

"Yeah, you have a point." I said. "Especially if Henry, Claire, and IceLeomon aren't coming."

"Where did Iceleomon even go?" Phoebe asked.

"What happened to the robot guys? Should we be looking for them?" Kitty asked.

"The mechawarramon? I think they were too far away from the portal when it blew up." I said.

"Mechanorimon." Phoebe corrected me. "I think so to because we had them set pretty far away so they wouldn't spot us. If I remember right, it was a long time ago."

"Let's hope so, because otherwise finding them all is going to be a real bitch." I said.

Eventually our order came, where it turned out that what she ordered me was basically a cheeseburger, but cut into an octagon for some strange reason, that said it was pretty good. She got some sort of sandwich with a very red colored meat on it, to this day I don't know what animal that meat was from but she ate the whole thing so it couldn't have been too bad. After that everyone was full so we ambled on over back to the ship, Kitty fell asleep in the car along the way. We returned the car, Kitty went to her room to sleep and Saphy went to the pool to do who the hell knows what.

Phoebe and I ran up and down the stairs several times to get some exercise in then we headed to our room and locked the door and had some sweet post exercise sex before laying down and snuggling for a bit.

"That was fun." She said.

"Yeah I can get you in the shower, I can get you after exercise, we could do this everyday." I said.

"And then you can get me in the shower again to wash all the sweat off." She said.

"Yeah if you wanna wait that long." I said.

"Eh, we'll see." Phoebe replied.

"Is that stair thing what Zari made you do?" Phoebe asked.

"No that was more of a spur of the moment thing, I can show you that tomorrow if you want." I said.

"Sure." Phoebe replied.

"So now what do you wanna do?" I asked.

"Just snuggle with my hubby for a bit what else?" She asked.

"Allright then." I replied.

-A few minutes later-

"You know Cj, someday, we really need to find Kitty another boyfriend, I know you love her, and she's our virara, but she keeps pushing her bounds and she really knows how to make me mad." Phoebe said.

"Let's wait till Deusmon is dead, then we can worry about that. I mean hell I already got her thinking about how she's going to be a mom to our kids." I said.

"What? Cj!" She exclaimed.

"Well it might happen who knows? Maybe you'll learn to get a long." I replied.

"No no no, she can be their aunt, but I'm their mama." She said.

"Ok well, you might have to tell her that." I said. "And then you might have to explain to Nina why I sleep with both of you sometimes."

"Yeah, well, I kind of hope we can fix it before that. Will it break your heart to see her with someone else?" Phoebe asked.

"Well it might hurt a little but, I'll still have you right? I'm more afraid of breaking hers, cause she doesn't deserve that. I just want her to be happy, if that's with me or some other random person, I can live with that, but right now I'm all she has, so." I said.

"You'll always have me Cj, and with her gone it will be just us and we can be the best couple ever again." She said. "You'll get so much more than whoever she ends up with will I promise."

"Well hold on, let's get deusmon out of the way first, because like it or not we need her help and if she ends up in love with somebody completely useless they just become a liability. And if we completely fuck it up and she breaks then we're fucked. So please, can you put up with her for that long?" I asked.

"I'll try." She replied."I hope you enjoyed last night though because I'm not letting you sleep with her again until next week atleast."

"I still got you though right?" I asked.

"Always and forever, remember?" She asked.

"I remember." I said.

"It would break my heart if you left me." I added.

"It'd break mine too, now that we're back together." Phoebe said.

"I guess that's what I meant to say." I replied.

"Though I kind of deserve it." I said.

"Oh Cj you've done nothing wrong, we got separated for a long time, longer than most people live. You have two women that love you more than anything and you're trying to do what's best for both of them and your kids which you haven't seen in an equally long time. And you're living with the loss of a third."

She said before she locked lips with me for a few seconds.

"I'm more proud of you than you could ever imagine and I am more than honored to be your soul mate." She said when she let go.

"I don't even know how to respond to that Pheebles." I said.

"Don't, just keep snuggling, and kiss me." She replied.

And so I did, for another hour or so atleast, then we had some more fun in the shower, then she started dressing herself up to take Kayla over to the club to try to find somebody for her. So I got dressed myself and went to see Kitty before I got stuck watching a baby for a few hours.

"Hey Kitty Kat." I said as I entered her room.

"Hi." She replied.

"You ready for tonight?" I asked.

"Mhm." She replied.

"What's tonight?" She asked a few seconds later.

"You're going to go to the club with Phoebe and the other girls." I said.

"Oh right, I think I'm just going to sneak out and come back here." She said. "Then we can be alone more."

"Yeah and then Phoebe will find out and go ballistic, again. Don't be ridiculous, I'd never betray her and we had last night so that should hold you over until next week or whenever Phoebe decides to do something crazy again." I said.

"But can't we just hang out?" She asked.

"Kitty if you want this to have any chance of working you have to get along with Pheebles, stop making her mad, because maybe if she likes you enough she'll let you be my wife as well, but as things are she won't even consider it, she's also not comfortable with our kids having two mommies either, so." I said.

"I'd just be their aunt again." She interrupted.

"She hopes we can find someone else for you by then. I don't think she feels this will work in the long run." I said.

"How do you feel?" She asked.

"I just want you both to be happy. And whether that means finding someone else for you, or getting Pheebles to like you enough that she lets me marry you, as long as your both happy in the end I'm fine. But as far as I know we'll keep this going atleast until deusmon is destroyed." I replied.

"So I still get you once a week?" She asked.

"I guess so." I replied.

"That will be fine for now then." She said.

"Good." I replied while Phoebe entered the room.

"Kitty you should get dressed we're going to be leaving soon." She said.

"Oh sorry." She replied.

"Come on Cj you don't need to watch her change." Phoebe said as she took my hand and led me towards the door.

"It's his right as my boyfriend." Kitty said as she got out of bed.

"Not when I'm here." Phoebe replied.

"Kitty when you're ready meet us in the rec room." Phoebe said.

"So where we going now?" I asked as we walked passed our room.

"To make sure Kayla and Saphy are getting ready." She replied.

So we visited Kayla's room and the pool so Phoebe could tell them to get ready for tonight, then we played pinball in the rec room for a few minutes until everyone showed up.

Then it was time for them to leave.

"Saphy since I won't be there make sure these two don't try to kill eachother, and please tell me if they do even if Phoebe tries to talk you out of it ok?" I said as I put my arms around Phoebe and Kitty.

"Sure will." Saphy replied.

"Cj." Phoebe protested.

"Oh we'll be fine." Kitty said as she kissed me on the cheek, which prompted Phoebe to kiss me on the lips in a somewhat inappropriately sensual manner.

"Pheebles." I said.

"What?" She asked.

"Get out of here before I start undressing you." I said.

"You just wait until I get back." Phoebe replied while Kitty rolled her eyes.

"My baby is asleep, be there when he wakes up." Kayla said as they started to leave.

"That's kind of why I'm staying here." I replied.

And so I was left to babysit, again.

"And if Kitty sneaks out and comes back, remember you don't have permission." Phoebe said.

"Yeah I know." I replied.

"Allright let's go everyone." Phoebe said as she headed for the door.

"How did you know about that?" Kitty asked as they entered the hallway.

"Sweety I can find out everything you say to him whether he wants to tell me or not." Phoebe said.

"Even while we were?" Kitty asked.

"Yes." Phoebe cut her off.

"But why would you want to?" Kitty asked.

"I don't, but I can." Phoebe replied.

"Prove it." Kitty said.

"I just did." Phoebe replied.

They left the ship and headed to the same night club they were going to go to the other day but because of the void disaster and Zari's freak out they didn't make it. Set on the main floor the clientele was a mix of tourists on their way to the planet, people passing through, and locals. Being on the main floor, it was also pretty busy, to the point where there was a line to get in.

"Ok Saphy and I will pretend to be a couple, I'll try to find the nice, single guys, which won't be easy with how crowded this place is. Kitty you help Kayla get their attention, or keep directing them towards her."

"What if they want me instead?" Kitty asked.

"Tell them you're married." Phoebe replied.

"To Cj?" Kitty asked.

"No, just tell them you're married, but you know Kayla and she's nice and single." Phoebe said.

"Do I have to say she's nice?" Kitty asked.

"The better you make her sound, the faster she can move in with somebody else." Phoebe pointed out.

"Oh ok." Kitty replied.

"What do I say?" Kayla asked.

"I'll help you when we get to that point." Phoebe said.

"Do we get to dance?" Saphy asked.

"Of course it will make it more convincing." Phoebe replied.

"Will Cj mind?" Saphy asked.

"It will be better than guys hitting on us constantly." Phoebe said.

"True." Saphy replied.

"Why do we have to wait so long to get in?" Kitty asked.

"Because they need to make sure nobody gets in that's going to cause trouble. Also it's on the main floor and really busy." Phoebe said.

Eventually they got in, found a table and spent a few minutes just taking in the sights.

The music was loud dance techno, and there were humanoids everywhere of many, many different races, nobody felt that Phoebe or the digibabes looked out of place here. The dance floor had a full lighting rig, a smoke machine, lasers, and basically the works and of course there was the resident DJ hiding in his booth, directing the whole thing.

"The music is really loud." Saphy said.

"Oh relax. Come on, let's dance and get to work. Kitty keep your eyes on me I'm going to spot guys for you to show to Kayla." Phoebe said as she took Saphy's hand.

"Right, ok." Kitty said.

"Can I dance?" Kayla asked.

"Just stay where I can see you." Phoebe replied.

"Kitty let's start with that one at the bar he's alone." Phoebe said before taking Saphy out to the dancefloor.

"Ok sure." Kitty said.

"Hi how ya doing? You wanna meet my friend she's um, nice and single." Kitty said as she approached the man at the bar, with a bit of hesitation.

-several hours later-

"So how'd it go?" I asked as they all came in to Kayla's room where the baby was sleeping in its crib.

"We met a lot, a lot of guys, we met a lot." Kitty said as she wobbled in.

"Is she drunk?" I asked.

"Eheh, yeah, they bought her a lot of drinks." Phoebe said.

"Just like old times." I replied as I rolled my eyes. "Kitty don't talk so loud you'll wake the baby."

"Saphy why don't you take her to bed?" Phoebe asked.

"Ok, come on Kitty." Saphy said as she led her out of the room.

"Goodnight." Kitty managed to say.

"Goodnight." I replied.

"I'll kiss you to-tomorrow, when I feel, when I feel better. Phoebe kiss him for me." She said, still a bit too loud.

"Come on let's get you back to your room while you can still walk." Saphy said.

"Dam the little guy is a heavy sleeper." I said.

"That's a good thing." Phoebe replied.

"Yep." I agreed.

"How is the baby?" Kayla asked.

"He's fine, he's been asleep for a while." I said. "No luck tonight?"

"Why don't we go back to our room and we can talk about it. Goodnight Kayla, goodnight baby." Phoebe said as she peeked into his crib.

"Goodnight." Kayla replied.

"Ok." I replied. Vaguely feeling like something was wrong.

I followed her back to our room where she closed the door behind me with her powers, plopped down on the bed and started to unwind.

"Cj I swear it would just be easier if I hypnotized somebody into thinking they were the father." Phoebe said.

"Of course it would be, why wouldn't it be? But how long will that hypnotism last?" I asked.

"Long enough for her to move in and for us to get out of here. We went through twenty guys Cj, twenty guys, as soon as they figured out she had a kid all their attention turned to Kitty that's how she got so drunk." Phoebe replied.

"Yeah, she never refuses a drink, I keep telling her it isn't rude to say no if you've had too much, but, you know how she is, anyway I guess we have a little leeway here. You know what would be funny? If you hypnotized some asshole that ditched his kids or something." I said.

"Yeah, kind of like how you're ditching him." She said with a smirk.

"You really want to bring a baby into combat don't you? I know you miss being a mother, but we'll get back to that someday. You just have to be patient which you have absolutely no excuse not to be now because I know you can be." I said.

"I'm sorry Cj that was a bit mean." Phoebe said.

"Oh it's allright Pheebles, you're tired, probably a bit stressed." I said.

"Yeah." She said.

"How was Kitty? Before, well that happened. Did she actually help or did she just ask you over and over again if she could sleep with me?" I asked.

"No she actually helped it was a miracle. She said everything I told her to say, I even told her to say she had kids, but that just made guys leave both of them alone, and then she got drunk and basically wasn't as helpful." Phoebe replied.

"Well you need to find single guys that have kids." I said. "Though those normally aren't the types of people that show up at clubs."

"Yeah, well, who knows?" Phoebe asked as I sat down on the bed beside her.

"So um, I bet your feet are pretty sweaty from dancing." I said.

"Yes they are and they could use a massage, but first, I want to make out with my Cj." She said as she wrapped her arms around me.

"Oh really?" I asked.

"I've been watching other couples kiss all night and the whole time I was wishing you were there so we could kiss." Phoebe said.

"Well now we're here together." I said.

"Exactly so kiss me you dummy." She said.

I quickly gave her a kiss.

" love you Pheebles." I said.

"Oh I wuv you too Cj." She replied with a cute smile.

"We going to do this every night when you get home?" I asked.

"Is there a problem with that?" She asked.

"No, not really." I replied.

"Might go to a bar tomorrow to find these single fathers, we could leave Saphy to look after the baby and then I could take you with me." Phoebe said.

"That sounds fun." I replied.

"You told her babies can't swim right?" I asked.

"Mhm." Phoebe replied.

"And if we don't find anybody we have to resort to hypnotism." Phoebe said.

"Well give it time Pheebles, we're still waiting on your time machine anyway." I said.

"Yeah, I know. Meanwhile there's a giant monster in space that's devouring battleships. Now just in case you were wondering that one kiss wasn't enough." Phoebe said.

"Yeah I figured it wouldn't be." I replied before we locked lips again.

"Oh my sweet little baby girl how I love you so." I said softly in a fake French accent.

"I love you, why are you talking like that?" She asked before kissing me again.

"Just trying to be more romantic." I replied.

"Oh." She replied.

"Is it working?" I asked.

"A little bit, but kisses will get you further." She replied.

"Oh ok then." I said before kissing her several times.

"There you go. Good boy." She said as I continued to kiss her all over her face.

"I love you." She said with a giggle,

Eventually we made sweet love and fell asleep sometime later.

The next day arrived and after the usual routine and breakfast we went to check out the amusement park without Kayla, with Phoebe gradually teleporting us there instead of renting a car. Unfortunately it was still a long line to get in. We did get in eventually though, wasn't really much to say about it as it was a pretty standard amusement park, with a few small rollercoasters, a ferris wheel, a few more exotic rides that are hard to describe but are basically variations of scramblers. And "SuperCrazyCarts", which were basically insanely fast electric go karts, fast enough that you had to wear a helmet to drive them. They were almost too fast for their own good. They were all wheel drive with all wheel steering governed for 40mph,for safety, but they would get there in about 2 seconds, with a lot of wheel spin, and without the governor hell knows how fast it would actually be, it was better to drift them around corners than to try to drive them around normally. The oiled metal track and hard tires were specially designed to assist in this. Their appearance was roughly similar to a radical sr4, but shorter and stubbier, more cart-sized, without any lights whatsoever, and with a sturdy, sprung metal ring around it for safety. So really it was a bit more than a go-kart, it was more like a weird little electric race car. According to the man running the attraction, on a proper road surface with proper tires it could hit 140 mph in 4 seconds, but it's so light that if you so much as sneeze you're dead and if you run against any sort of wind that number starts to drop pretty quickly. Also apparently, on his planet, if you put lights on them they become street legal, but with seating for one, no cargo space, a body made from what was basically the same plastic as children's furniture, and no creature comforts whatsoever, it wasn't an extremely practical choice. They were pretty cheap though, the battery actually costs more than the car.

We gave it a try, it was kind of fun, but also extremely difficult because one small mistake and the cars would spin around helplessly. If you could make one lap without doing at least one 360 you were doing good. The controls were very sensitive and there was almost no traction do to the torque of the car and the surface of the track, which was ironically for safety even though the cars would go in anything but a straight line. The bumpers worked well, absorbing the occasional impact with the barriers alongside the track or other out of control karts. Pretty much everyone got used to the sensitive handling except for Kitty, who became more of a hazard than an opponent.

I could've stayed there all day but Phoebe wanted to go on the ferris wheel with me so I went.

We spent a few hours there before returning to our ship to find Zari standing outside the gate with a couple of Zelusian soldiers behind her.

"Zari what's this about?" I asked.

"I told you I might be back soon." She said.

"Are we in trouble?" I asked.

"Not if you cooperate." She said. "We need to talk."

"What's with the soldiers?" I asked.

"Oh don't mind them it's just a formality." Zari said.

"They want to know about my projects don't they?" Phoebe asked.

"Yes." Zari replied. "Follow me."

"Just Phoebe." She said when she realized all of us were following.

"Cj comes too." Phoebe insisted.

"Fine." Zari replied.

"Can I come?" Kitty asked.

"No, I was only supposed to talk to Phoebe." Zari said.

"Just hang out on the ship we'll be back in a bit." I said.

We followed her to a car that was parked nearby, it was basically the same model of car we rented the day before, but this one was a black limousine version with tinted windows and Zelusian government plates.

"Nice ride." I said.

"Yeah, yeah, get in we need to talk." Zari said as she opened the door for us.

"So where we going?" Phoebe asked once we all got in.

"Nowhere, we just need to have a private conversation." Zari said.

"This is classified, never happened, you know the drill." She continued.

"Go on." I said.

"I told them the truth, the Zelusian high command, I told them about everything Phoebe had been doing with her mass hypnosis and the time machine, I told them where we came from, and why we've lived so long." She continued.

"And?" I asked.

"They want Phoebe's ship." Zari said. "Then they want to help with the time machine."

"That would mean giving time travel technology to the Zelusians." I said.

"Why do they want my ship?" Phoebe asked.

"So basically you want my baby girl to give the Zelusians two overpowered technologies in exchange for maybe expediting the time machine's completion?" I asked.

"Yep." Zari said.

"You realize either one of those things on its own could annihilate the U.S.C?" I asked.

"That's why they want it." Zari said.

"I'm not comfortable with that unless the U.S.C is involved, I mean we're not exactly on their good side, but we owe them more than that." I said. "We might as well give them both access so neither of them can use it to destroy each other."

"Zari are you with us or with the Zelusians?" Phoebe asked.

"You two are going to cost me my job, again. Do you have any idea how hard it would be to get ahold of anyone in the U.S.C, especially since they're poised to arrest all of us on site? I'd have to get the grand president to call up their president directly, and he's not too keen on that." Zari said.

"I'll give them the blueprints for my ship and that's it." Phoebe said. "But the U.S.C will get a copy too. As for my time machine, it will self-destruct once it's used, I told them to build it that way so Deusmon won't be able to use it, but I guess it will keep either of those two from using it as well. Once my mind control devices run out of battery they'll wipe the minds of everyone within their range."

"And the blueprints for the time?" I asked.

"I'll destroy them. We can't let anybody get that kind of technology who the heck knows what would happen they could undo everything we've been trying to accomplish." Phoebe said.

"How are you going to contact the U.S.C though?" Zari asked.

"We'll figure it out." Phoebe said.

"Look do what you have to do, but make sure nobody finds out you're giving the U.S.C a copy. I gotta stay here, I'm sorry I can't help you with this. " Zari said before knocking on the privacy window, prompting the driver to take us back to the gate. "I need the blueprints now, the public can't know this but with everything he consumes, deusmon becomes bigger and more powerful, they say it might be another year or two before he swallows the whole known universe."

"I don't have the blueprints with me they're on my ship's computer." Phoebe said.

"Then go get them and meet me back here tomorrow." Zari replied.

"Ok." I replied. "That will give us time to run another copy to U.S.C space."

A few minutes later we said goodbye to Zari again for the time being, got back on the ship, informed the rest of the group of the gist of what was going on, then we prepared to jump over to Phoebe's ship. Unfortunately the Zelusians got there before we did, a frigate was parked nearby and several soldiers were already rummaging through the ship.

"STAY BACK OR WE'LL OPEN FIRE" The ship's captain announced over the radio as we cautiously approached them.

"Cj we need to get on my ship and stop them." Phoebe said.

"We can't go over there Pheebles they have us way outgunned." I said.

"Can we destroy them with the fighter?" Phoebe asked.

"We could damage them, I don't know about destroying them." I said.

"How did they get here before we did?" Phoebe asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" I asked. "Zari betrayed us."

"No no no no no." Phoebe said. "Zari doesn't know."

"I'm going to make it warp away." Phoebe said as she accessed the ship's computer through the co-pilot's terminal. "Boobie balls, there we go."

"Pheebles you're going to piss them off." I said.

"I don't care, blah blah blah, they can't have this technology." Phoebe said.

"Just download the blueprints to here and delete the file." I said.

"Then they'll just take the ship and jump in 10." Phoebe said. "Now jump before they open fire."

"Right." I said as I quickly accessed the jump drive interface.

The frigate crew apparently found out what was happening and quickly maneuvered away from Phoebe's ship and proceeded to open fire with some leech missiles that quickly disabled Phoebe's ship. Others started to head for us, prompting me to activate the defence system which began to fire on them automatically. Which caused the frigate to also open fire with it's plasma cannons.

"The jump aborted." Phoebe said as the ship rocked from the impact of the cannons.

She gave me a solemn look then she made a decision.

"I have to activate the self destruct." She said as she turned towards her console once again.

"Pheebles."

"They can't take the blueprints Cj." She said.

"Shields 80%" The ship's computer announced.

"Self destruct in 20." Phoebe said. "Hit the jump drive already!"

"Right." I replied as I picked a random but fairly far away location to jump to as the ship rocked violent and the shield fell lower and lower. We entered hyperspace with shields at 35%, we never saw her ship explode, which was probably a good thing. The frigate was caught in the explosion and severely damaged, but not destroyed and the Zelusians were undoubtedly very pissed about it.

"You realize we're royally fucked now." I said.

"We'll have to go to fucking black sun territory." I said. "Fucking pirates."

"Maybe we can smooth things over with the U.S.C." Phoebe said.

"Not a chance." I replied as I watched the defensive turrets retract and the shields slowly regenerate.

"What is going on in here?" Saphy asked as she entered the bridge.

"A lot of shit. It's over now we've escaped for the time being." I said.

"Escaped from what?" Saphy asked.

"The Zelusians." I said.

"Zari betrayed us?" Saphy asked.

"No it wasn't Zari it was somebody else. I guarantee it." Phoebe said.

"Whatever the case is we're royally fucked now." I said.

"I did what I had to do Cj." Phoebe said.

"I know." I replied.

"My ship, is gone.30 years of work down the drain." Phoebe said.

"You want to fuck about it?" I asked.

"No, I just need some time to relax and think." She said.

"Ok." I replied.

"You know you were going to have to say bye to it eventually." I said.

"I know." She replied.

"We're going to have to say bye to this eventually." I added as I lovingly smacked the console a few times.

"Going to miss this thing." I said.

"Yeah." She moped.

"You know you still got a Camaro waiting for you at home." I said.

"Yeah." She replied in a slightly less sad tone.

"Let's get some more fuel and get into pirate space." I said as I located the nearest station and hoped we would still get permission to dock. Thankfully communications take time so they were unaware anything had happened and we were able to stop for fuel as normal.

Things looked bleak at the moment, with Phoebe's ship gone it was only a matter of time before the Zelusians set their sights on her time machine.

A couple months passed as we hid in pirate space. Communications were exchanged, the U.S.C found out that Zari had been imprisoned for treason. Some egghead got the bright idea that freeing her would result in the U.S.C receiving valuable information, but the U.S.C itself didn't want to get its hands dirty. And that's when they decided to attempt to hire Henry and crew to free her. Missions like this weren't his usual thing, but, seeing that Zari was the target, he couldn't resist. It wasn't an easy mission, a few lives were lost, but they managed to break her out.

During those weeks we got bored very quickly, pirate space just wasn't that interesting, we had a lot of sex in that time, with both Kitty and Saphy, but even that eventually got boring. We let Kayla in on our secret, which Kitty hated, but eventually they got a bit closer and by the time she could look me in the eyes again we got bored with her as well. It was strange willingly fucking my first fully human female. Of course like most of our encounters the first time was Phoebe's doing. I was looking around the ship for her when she contacted me through telepathy and led me into one of the normally unused bedrooms where she had Kayla laying on her stomach completely naked.

"What the heck are you doing Pheebles?" I asked.

"Well she was working so hard to be a mother I decided she deserved a massage." She replied.

I walked up to her and gave her tits a gentle squeeze.

"Eh Cj what are you doing?" She exclaimed, cutely embarrassed.

"Yeah your boobs are already growing you horny little thing." I said. "You called me in here for a threesome didn't you?"

"Maybe." She replied.

"Let's do it." Kayla said as she turned around and pulled the blanket over herself.

"What's Kitty going to think?" I hesitantly asked.

"Why is it any of her business?" Phoebe replied.

"Is the baby here?" I asked.

"The baby is asleep in her room." Phoebe said.

"Ok, but you have to explain this to Kitty." I said.

"Of course, it will be fun." She replied as she turned around and started to rub my crotch.

"Not as much fun as this though." She said as she unzipped my pants and got on her knees.

"Kayla sweety come here, you don't have to cover yourself he can see you naked you know?" Phoebe said as she pulled out my manhood.

"Just get up and let the blanket down slowly." I said as Phoebe started to please me.

"Mmm, your first human." Phoebe said.

"Yeah it's taken long enough hasn't it?" I replied.

"How do I look?" Kayla said as she exposed herself to me.

"Amazing." I replied.

"She's not going to have to knock you out this time is she?" Phoebe asked.

"Did you have to bring that up?" I asked.

"Sorry Cj." Phoebe replied as Kayla came over and joined her on her knees.

Then the obvious ensued.

Anyway at this point in time we stayed around the vicinity of one of the safer stations which we only docked at about once a week for supplies. It's name was goldstar one, a really old outpost 10 miles in diameter, abandoned by the U.S.C about a 50 years ago, for little reason other than being obsolete (no docking ports for large capital ships, shields and defensive cannons below modern standards, faded, scratched, and blurry windows all around and a myriad of other issues associated with an aged vessel. Sometime after its abandonment, it was rediscovered and taken over by refugees and over a 30 year period turned into a fully functioning station on the edge of pirate space. Unlike some larger stations, this one lacked any maglev trains or proper cars, with most of the transport being done by an assortment of ex-military, asteroid gray, Golf-cart like vehicles that were about as old as the station itself, with all the roads being scaled appropriately and larger vehicles being illegal. (Though there were a handful of old normal-size cargo trucks that were used by the city on occasion.) Asteroid gray is a flat, medium gray with just a slight tinge of brown that is literally the U.S.C's equivalent of olive drab, as it blends in with most asteroids and the sides of large military ships.

Anyway, Kayla eventually got a job at one of the bars there which let her stay in the loft above, which would be safer both for her and the baby, while we were here anyway, this allowed her to make her own money and also served as a connection to the local populace. Eventually, unaware of the universe's impending demise, which we kept secret from her for the sake of the baby, she moved out for good and struck out on her own. After she left, Kitty said that she missed her more than a few times. This left just me, Phoebe, and the digibabes.

"Is this what space madness feels like?" I asked as I laid naked beside my beloved after another generic lovemaking session. It had nearly lost all meaning at this point, we were all depressed really, just trying to kill time, moral was at an all time low.

"I don't know." Phoebe said.

"How long are we going to keep doing this?" I asked.

"Until deusmon destroys everything I guess." Phoebe replied.

"You know we still have a lot of empty rooms on here." Phoebe said.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Why don't we do some recruiting? Get some new young pussy on board?" Phoebe asked.

"Because what would be the point, the Zelusians probably control your machine by now and I doubt they'd let us use it."

"I don't know, I just think it would be a more fun way to go out than just laying here bored, having sex again and again and again for no reason other than there's nothing better to do. We could get some more girls, have some more orgies, and they could even help us out in case pirates attack." Phoebe said.

"Yeah, possibly." I replied.

"Cj?" She asked.

"Yeah?" I replied.

"Will you go on one final sexual binge with me, and try to add as many girls to our harem as possible before we all disappear forever?" She asked.

"Oh hell why not?" I asked.

And so we started exploring pirate space, looking for women to sate our desires, until the universe would be no more. We traveled between three of the safer stations and regularly visited the bars and nightclubs. It was easier said than done, we didn't want just anybody attractive, we actually tried to look for girls that would have useful skills, ex soldiers, pirates, bounty hunters. Since we were in pirate space having a small army of combat-capable babes on board would be helpful in case of an attack. Pirates usually being more brutal and less predictable than bounty hunters. We had to take the time to get to know them and seduce them as well, we also had to accomplish this before the general populace figured out what was going on and mass hysteria inevitably set in. At this point only us and a handful of U.S.C and Zelusian military higher ups, as well as the research teams conducting their experiments, knew of the potential impending apocalypse. Everyone else thought that deusmon was just some weird new type of black hole.

Anyway, our first addition was one of Kayla's new friends, her name was Selenia, orphaned daughter of a pirate, a decent shot, skin blue as the sky, hair pink as bubblegum, tall but thin body, and the nice legs that usually implies. She never told us her last name as she didn't want to be associated with it. Phoebe knows it, but respects her wishes and thus refuses to tell me or anyone else. Apparently her father is still alive, but missing, while her mother died a long time ago due to some sort of illness she is also reluctant to disclose.

Next there was Illustria Xalarine, daughter of a USC affiliated planetary aristrocrat, interested in being a bounty hunter, we told her we were recruiting to try to save the world, which wasn't a complete lie, a repanoid, an alternate human with pink skin, black hair and eyes, and generally petite bodies even when compared to Pheebles and Saphy, but strangely extremely strong and flexible. She could hold me as tight as Kitty, but her species also possessed a freakishly long tongue, and while I fucked her tight little cunt it was just as interesting to see the other girl's reactions as she went down on them. She was apparently wealthy at one point, and tends to act a bit spoiled at times, but she's been away from home long enough that it's not much of a regular occurrence. She caught our attention one night at one of the clubs where this guy nearly twice her size was getting just a bit too hands on, she beat the snot out of him with very little effort, in her dress and heels. The guy didn't stand a chance. We recruited her later that night, Phoebe managed to seduce her a few days later. She doesn't seem to be very fond of her parents, and doesn't really talk about them much. Her home planet was well known for recently achieving space flight and in being in a sort of proxy-civil war between the U.S.C and the Zelusians. The U.S.C backed the monarchy, while the Zelusians backed the angry traditionalist who clung to their religion and demonized the U.S.C but hypocritically not the Zelusians. Her parents sided with the crown and the U.S.C, so the Zelusians were after her, and at the moment the side they backed, were winning. It's important to note that at this time the U.S.C and Zelusians were only supporting their chosen sides with credits and hardware, neither of them had actual troops planet side nor any military ships in orbit ready to strike.

Finally there was Chalana Lasmarain, actual spelling unknown, and this is where we stopped searching because things started to get interesting, She had a busty build, which I was patiently waiting to compare to Zari's if we ever saw her again. Pitch black skin, as in too dark to be human, silvery hair, and a lot of strength, but what really got our attention, over any other busty babe and what brought our search to an end, was her story, she told us she came from a planet far away, where she along with several others were abducted by pirates to be sold as slaves (which sadly happens to a lot of non-space fairing races that can't easily retaliate, even fairly advanced ones, in fact that's usually preferred because then they are more accustomed to technology compared to somebody that's never so much as seen a tv before, it makes it easier for them to work in factories and other industrial applications). However she was only held captive for a few weeks until bounty hunters came and liberated her and somehow had managed to hold her own ever since, traveling from station to station, occasionally collecting bounties. But of course, that wasn't everything, for she spoke of their king, who Phoebe quickly realized by reading her memories was IceLeomon. Also she always felt so warm, it was weird like a fire-type pokémon except she obviously couldn't breathe fire.

So with our new companions we headed over to her home planet to find our old friend. The first time we used the jump drive in about 5 months. At this point in time the Zelusians were still trying to get Phoebe's time machine completed, which was hampered by the diminishing knowledge on how it worked. Her entire network of hypnosis machines were starting to die off and as per her own design, and anybody who knew anything about said time machine was beginning to suffer from a failing memory. This meant that progress ground to a halt and the Zelusians were now forced to attempt to reverse-engineer it.

Once we figured out what planet to search, finding Iceleomon wasn't hard, as the place was fairly civilized and technologically advanced, despite not having a space station, and he was their king. And Chalana knew exactly where their capital was, Their planet was huge and mostly frozen, which was partly why they hadn't been interested in space exploration, they hadn't even settled half their planet yet. Their super dark skin adapted to make the most of whatever sunlight was available, helping them to survive the cold. This was to the point where Chalana felt that even 60 degrees was too hot, and opted to wear bikinis nearly all the time except in her own room which, thanks to being in space, was cooled to about 35 degrees. When we landed on her home planet, she wore a yellow dress while everyone else was in heavy coats. Everyone else being Phoebe and I and the digibabes, the other newbies decided to stay on the ship, understandable given that it was –40 degrees out. Once we got off the ship, near their capital city, with Chalana acting as our guide, the locals conveniently led us straight to IceLeomon. Who was surprisingly no longer a pandamon, and more surprisingly, taking his role as king seriously. A scribe was typing down everything he said on what looked to be some sort of primitive desktop computer, the kind with a monochrome screen where everything is green and a printer of equivalent tech level. He wore a crown and some fancy clothes, and some fairly attractive girls were fanning him with some large teal colored leaves from some type of cold loving plant, despite it being below freezing.

"What is this, you arrested some of those damned slave traders?" IceLeomon asked.

"My king I assure you they mean no harm." Chalana spoke for us.

"What is your reason for coming here?" He asked.

"Don't you recognize us?" I asked.

"He doesn't know the newbies and he probably can't recognize us because of our coats." Phoebe said.

"If you took it off maybe he would recognize you." Chalana suggested.

"If I took it off I would freeze." I replied.

"You all look ridiculous." She said.

"It's – 40 degrees." Phoebe said.

"Silence, announce your intentions or leave!" Iceleomon demanded.

"About 100 years ago, ring a bell? Before you came here, before you became their king." I said.

"It can't be, it's been so long." He replied.

Phoebe pulled her hood down to show her face, despite the cold, I did the same, the digibabes followed soon after.

"You're alive?" He asked.

"Yeah, not sure for how much longer though." I replied.

"Where's Zari and the other two?" IceLeomon asked.

"Zari betrayed us, the other two want to do their own thing." I said.

"She didn't betray us Cj." Phoebe still insisted after all this time.

"So why did you find me? What's going on?" IceLeomon asked.

"We just wanted to see if we could find you again before this universe is devoured by deusmon." I said.

"Deusmon? He's coming?" He asked.

"He's getting closer and closer everyday, he devoured a whole planet a few weeks ago, and there was nothing the Zelusians could do about it." I said.

"This cannot be, there must be a way to stop him." He replied.

"Yeah there is, Phoebe was building a time machine so we could go back to when we first came here and walk through the holes in space generated by the portal explosion to get back to the digital world, from there we'd just have to take down the rest of the dark kings and then none of this ever would have happened." I explained.

"What?" He asked.

"We had a plan, bad guys stole our stuff." Phoebe said.

"Now we're all fucked." I said.

"You can't fight them?" He asked.

"They'd blow us out of the sky before we'd even have a chance to get in range." I said.

"Anything else?" Iceleomon asked.

"2 of the most powerful armies in this universe both hate us." I added. "Like we are royally fucked there is not a single fucking person we can talk to or thing we can do to even begin to combat this."

"So we've just been floating through space having crazy parties until deusmon devours everything." Phoebe added.

"You gave up?" He asked.

"Well what the fuck else are we supposed to do just die?" I replied.

"There must be something, let me lead I've been king of this place for longer than I can even remember." He said as he stood up from his throne.

"Scribe make an announcement that a tournament is to be held to select a new king, I doubt I shall return and I shall be taking my wives with me."

"If that's allright?" He asked.

"Those are your wives?" I asked.

"Yes the twin queens, Elishen and Kaytori." Chalana replied, referring to the girls that were fanning him.

"Awwwwe when did you get married?" Phoebe asked.

"After Celani passed." He replied.

"The former queen." Chalana explained.

"Ok sure, why not, it will break up the monotony." I said.

"He has two wives." Kitty pointed out.

"Yeah." Phoebe replied, already knowing where this was going.

"You know what that means? That it can work" Kitty said.

Phoebe just stayed quiet and rolled her eyes.

"Did you marry them both at the same time?" Kitty asked.

"Yes." Iceleomon replied.

"Do you sleep with both of them or do you sleep with one most of the time and the other only once a week?" Kitty asked.

"Kitty don't asked that." Phoebe said.

"Both all the time." Iceleomon replied.

"Wahhhhhh?" Phoebe's jaw dropped surprised he was able to figure out sex on his own.

"And you love them both equally right?" Kitty asked.

"Yes." Iceleomon replied.

"Arceus." Phoebe exclaimed.

"See Pheebles it can work." Kitty said.

"Yeah for him not for us." Phoebe replied. "Cj is mine and one of these days it's just going to be the two of us and our babies again."

"But Phoebe." Kitty said.

"Do they ever drive you completely insane because they won't stop fighting over you?" I asked.

"There's times yes." He replied.

"Are you married to Kitty now?" he asked.

"Yes." Kitty huggled me and replied before I could.

"No she's our virara." Phoebe explained.

"It's complicated." I said.

"No it's not Cj she just needs to know her place." Phoebe replied.

"You sleep with both of them?" He asked.

"Um, more than usual lately because they need more attention than the others." I said.

"The others?" He asked.

"The girls we share together." Phoebe said as she hugged me.

"Yeah we have Chalana here, Saphy of course, then Ilustria and Selenia back on the ship." I said as Chalana stared at the ground in embarrassment.

"And Zari before, something happened." Phoebe said.

"And Aranea if she was still alive." I said.

"Yeah you'd like that wouldn't you Cj?" Phoebe asked.

"You would too don't lie." I said.

"You only brought them along so he could sleep with them instead of me." Kitty said.

"That's not true, why do you think I let you spend almost every night with us now?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah, but how many of those nights do we actually do anything?" Kitty asked.

"Some." Phoebe replied. "Cj and I, we never have sex every night we have sex in the morning, in the shower, which I've said multiple times you're more than welcome to join us, but you never do because you hate water."

"You see what I mean? Once they get going the filter just goes out the window." I said.

"Yeah and then I find you both fucking one of them in the pool, or the pinball room, or on the bridge even and every time I think you know what? That should've been me. It should only be you me and CJ together forever, but no you have to enable him to go around and bang everyone else."

"Would you just be quiet you're embarrassing everyone." Phoebe said.

"No, what's the point of being your virara if you just bang other people anyway?" Kitty asked.

"Well we're all going to be dead soon so what does it matter?" Phoebe asked.

"Can't you just let me marry him before we go?" Kitty asked, on the verge of tears.

"No, never he's mine until the end so shut up and stop asking!" Phoebe said.

With that Kitty started to cry.

"Dammit Pheebles." I said.

"It had to be said." She replied.

"In public, in front of everyone?" I asked.

"Fucking sleeping alone tonight." I said. "I need the sleep more than the sex anyway."

"Cj wait."

"Well um, I have a tournament to set up, go and make yourself at home." IceLeomon said as he left the throne room with his wives in tow.

"I'm so sorry my King, they normally get along better than this." Chalana respectfully apologized.

"Yeah sorry you had to see this, things haven't been the best. Everything is just falling apart and it's not just us the whole known universe is going crazy." I said.

"We'll turn it around, I just need to finish some things up here first." He said with a ridiculous air of confidence.

"Kitty." I said as I took her hands.

"I'll marry you." I said.

" Really?" She asked.

"But Cj!" Phoebe objected.

"The news says we may only have a few months left, if you don't side with me right now then you can spend them alone. We don't have much time left, I don't want you to spend it breaking her heart."

"We could find another portal, we could escape." Phoebe said.

"Deusmon would come for us eventually." I replied.

"Don't do this please." She said.

I hugged them both.

"Oh, come on Pheebles, I know you won't leave." I said.

"You're right." She replied. "I can't."

"No more threesomes, no more sharing, from now until devourment you two are my onlys from now on." I said.

"What about me?" Saphy asked.

"Eh what the heck sure." I replied. "If Pheebles will concede I'll concede."

"No Saphy, I love you, but this is the way it needs to be." Phoebe said.

"You sure?" I asked.

"Ok fine." Phoebe said. "Come here Saphy."

Saphy joined in on our hug.

"Now what?" Kitty asked.

"Well we just got engaged so we should go back to the ship and celebrate." Phoebe said.

"Yeah." I agreed.

"Wow you guys are weird." Chalana said, the only other person still in the room.

"You want in too while the doors are wide open?" Phoebe asked.

"No I'll settle for just being one of your side pieces." Challana replied.

"Ok then." Phoebe said.

So IceLeomon had to make arrangements to select a new king, during which we spent most of the time on our ship, out of the cold. Said tournament apparently involved wrestling, a hovercraft race, and from what I could get from Chalana, wrangling some kind of cattle whilst riding a hovercraft. Which sounded really badass, but was not worth going out in the -40 degree weather to see. It made me wonder what happened to what for a short time was my own kingdom after Aranea and I got picked up by the U.S.C, I never got the chance to name a successor.

So anyway after just 3 girls our sex binge came to an end and I ended up with 3 wives, although really Saphy seemed to belong more to Phoebe while Kitty definitely belonged more to me to the point where we had planned to have separate weddings, it was weird, but it worked for the time being at least, though it quickly fell apart when we realized we weren't completely screwed.

IceLeomon became our captain for awhile, really more for our own entertainment than anything. We traveled around for about a week. Had few close calls with U.S.C and Zelusian forces and basically just tooled around, going to bars and stuff. We filled the newbies in on our history, they didn't really have to hang around, but they did for one reason or another, even if it was just for free food and free room and board.

Then something unexpected happened, Henry tracked us down, which wasn't that hard to do as we weren't jumping around very much and each station kept a list of which ships docked at it at which times, as well as our close encounters calling out our current location. We basically stuck close to three different stations, usually not docked, but just floating around nearby them for safety as pirates were less likely to attack in the vicinity of a station. We occasionally docked for water and supplies.

"Bout damned time I've been trying to find you for weeks." He said. "And you found icelion man."

"IceLeomon." Phoebe corrected.

"Hi." Claire said.

"Hi how you doing? Are you having any nightmares?" Phoebe asked.

"No why?" Claire asked.

"Good, that means I got all of it." Phoebe said.

"All of what?" Claire asked.

"You don't want to know." Phoebe replied.

"I swear you were shorter last time I saw you." Henry joked.

"Yeah I probably was." A half drunk IceLeomon joked.

"And let me guess you slept with all these ladies." He asked.

"Not those two they're IceLeomon's." I said.

"Oh you got yourself some ladies now, good for you." Henry said.

"Did you track us down just to joke around?" I asked.

"No no no, you know how screwed everything is right now right?" Henry asked.

"Very much so yes." Phoebe said.

"Well, I've been doing some work for the U.S.C, and somebodies name came up." He said.

"Oh great so what you're here to arrest us."

"No, not you, Zari fucking Linerman." He replied.

"Hi." Zari said as she entered the building.

"The traitor?" I asked.

"No no no guys please please listen, that conversation in the limo, it was bugged I didn't know. " She quickly explained.

"They threw her in jail for treason." Henry said. "We were supposed to get her out and shuttle her over to U.S.C space so they could get some information."

"And?" I asked.

"Well that's exactly what I did." Henry said.

"Ok and?" I asked.

"You guys are welcome back in U.S.C space again. They want to help." Henry said.

"Do they want to help or do they just want to steal the fucking time machine." I asked.

"No they want to finish the time machine and then send all of us through it to destroy deusmon or whatever his name is." Henry said.

"Didn't they just try to blow us up a few days ago?" I asked Phoebe.

"I don't know, we jumped as soon as we saw them. They might not have even known we were there." Phoebe replied.

"They're looking for you, they sent me to find you." Henry said.

"Sure why not, worst case scenario we're just back to where we started." I said.

"Awesome. They want you to go to this station and wait for them." Henry said as he passed us a slip of paper.

"Allright then we'll check it out." I said.

"You guys still have my room available?" Zari asked.

"I think so." I said.

"Also newbies Zari, Zari, newbies." I said.

"Hi." Said the newbies.

"Do the newbies have names?" Zari asked.

"Chalana, Illustria, and Selenia." Phoebe replied.

"So what's the story?" Zari asked.

"We got bored." I replied.

"I see." Zari replied as she sat in an empty seat at the end of the table.

"So what about Kayla and the baby?" She asked.

"She moved out, found a job, I think she has a boyfriend now last I heard. " I replied.

"Yeah after you got tired of fucking her." Kitty said.

"You fucked her?" Zari asked.

"Zari it has been a few months, we were in the middle of nowhere, we had sex in nearly every conceivable situation with the digibabes, including in zero gravity, we even got Kitty in the shower with us. We ran out of ideas for roleplay, so yeah, Phoebe gave her a massage, got her naked, and we fucked her silly, then Phoebe and Saphy had some fun with her while I played with my Kitty Kat, then we got them to make up and stop hating eachother, and just the other day she told me she missed her." I said.

One of the first roleplays we tried was me pretending to be a lonely adult pokémon trainer and Phoebe being my gardevoir I received as a ralts as a child with her secretly falling in love with me as we grew up together.

So she finds me crying one night and just starts kissing me which is weird because she's a pokémon but it feels good and we both start getting into it until our clothes come off and we're fucking like bunnies.

"That's not true." Kitty said.

"Why are you lying?" Phoebe asked.

"Ok fine yes I miss her so what ? " Kitty asked defensively. "You still fucked her when I specifically asked you not too."

"Did you ever name the baby?" Zari asked.

"We never did, she eventually named him Allias." Phoebe said.

Al-igh-us

"Allias?" Zari asked.

"Some guys at the bar helped her come up with it." Phoebe explained.

"Also we're all getting married." Kitty announced as she hugged me.

"When? What." Zari asked.

"We thought we were screwed so Cj went and decided to marry her just so she could die happy. And then we decided to let Saphy marry us too." Phoebe said.

"We haven't really planned anything out yet." I replied.

"I don't even know if we will now since we might be able to beat deusmon." Phoebe said.

"Phoebe no!" Kitty said with a gasp.

"She's right Kitty Kat, we did that because we thought it was going to end, but it's not anymore." I said.

"But we can still do it." Kitty said.

"How about this Kitty, the wedding is off, that's non-negotiable, I'm still in charge and Saphy is our virara now, but, if you want to call him your husband you can, if you want to sleep with us in our room when we're not doing anything you can, but I'm still in charge, and I still get a say in whether you can have fun with him or not." Phoebe said.

"But am I still your virara too?" Kitty asked.

"Yes." Phoebe replied.

"Ok, I guess I can live with that." Kitty said.

"Yeah." Saphy agreed. "To be honest Pheebles you're too crazy for me anyway."

"What really?" Phoebe asked.

"Hey, it's a wild ride, but it's fun." I said.

"Cj be quiet." Phoebe replied.

"Just for that you don't get the same privileges." Phoebe said.

"She'd just get the bed all wet anyway." I said.

"Quiet Cj." Phoebe said a bit more sternly.

"Atleast I got to be your wife for a little while." Kitty said to me.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Still love you." She said.

"Love you." I replied.

"I Love Pheebles just a bit more though." I said as I put my arms around them both.

"Just a bit more?" Phoebe asked with a hint of disappointment.

"A lot more." Kitty said.

"Yeah, Duh you're my babygirl." I replied.

"Yeah, well, I love you more than anyone else to the extent where if it could be quantified it'd be more than all the stars in the sky." She said.

"Um, same?" I replied.

"No you come up with your own." Phoebe said.

"Well, uh, I love you more than anyone else to the extent where if it could be quantified it'd be more than all the grains of sand on all the beaches in the whole known plain of this existence." I said.

"You still copied most of mine." Phoebe said.

"Not the part that matters." I replied.

"Plagiarism is plagiarism Cj." Phoebe said.

"It is not, if this was cars you're basically saying I copied you because my car also has four wheels and an engine." I said.

"This isn't cars it's words and you copied most of mine." She said.

"Fine you know what? Mayonaise." I said.

"What?" She asked.

"You wanted me to be so damned original fine, I made up my own language where Mayonaise means exactly what I just said." I replied.

"But it still copies most of mine." Phoebe said.

"But it uses a different word, so it's not plagiarism." I replied.

"And now I can make you think of mayonnaise every time I say it because I know how much you like mayonaise." I replied.

"ew." She replied.

"Mayonaise." I said cheerfully as I hugged her while she cutely grimaced.

"Mayonaise." Kitty said as she joyfully hugged me.

"Um, tomatoes." I said as I hugged her back.

"What does that mean?" She asked.

"I love you, but not as much as Pheebles." I replied.

"oran berries." Phoebe said as she hugged me.

I playfully pushed her away.

"Pheebles how could you?" I asked.

"How could I what?" Phoebe asked.

"I mayonaised you Pheebles how could you say that?" I asked.

"Oh just stop it." Phoebe said. "You goofball."

"What does that mean?" I asked.

"You know what it means." She said.

"The word stop doesn't exist in mayo." I said.

"You don't speak mayo, mayo isn't even a real language." Phoebe said.

"Sure it is you ever had to squeeze a nearly empty mayo bottle?" I asked.

"No, mayonaise is gross." She replied.

"That's offensive to the mayonaisians." I said.

"Mayonaise isn't alive Cj." Phoebe replied.

"It is if you leave it out of the fridge for a few weeks, it has to incubate." I said.

"Ew." She replied.

"It does?" Kitty asked.

"Yeah and then if you lick it, it even starts sliding around like a snail." I replied.

"Cj don't tell her that." Phoebe said. "Don't do it, it doesn't come alive it just goes bad."

"Oh." Kitty said. "Like the milk, and the cheese, and the leftover Pizza."

"How many times have you fallen for that?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't even know anymore." Kitty said.

"Cj." Phoebe said as she glared at me in shock.

"What? She can't get sick and it's fucking hilarious." I replied.

"Yeah, but I can taste it." Kitty said.

"Yeah I know that's why it's hilarious." I replied.

"Ok well, if you are done with, uh whatever you're doing, you found IceLeomon?" Zari said as she rolled her eyes.

"He's our pancake disposal machine." Illustria chimed in.

"Yep, he's our captain now." I said.

"Really? You can't be serious." Zari asked.

"No really he's a great captain." I said.

"If you like flying around in circles and accidently turning off the gravity." Phoebe said.

"Now that we have something to take seriously we might have to promote him to admiral." I joked.

"Oh god no." Zari replied.

He was talking with his wives at this point so he wasn't really paying attention.

"It was more for our own entertainment than anything." Phoebe said.

"We were really really bored." I added. "We went a week without having sex and just snuggling, that's how bored we were we sexed ourselves out."

"So what about us now that everything is picking up again?" Chalana asked.

"Well if you want to help save this reality come with us, else we could just take you back home, or back to where we found you, whichever you prefer. " I said.

None of them wanted to leave.

"Are you kidding? Your ship is amazing." Ilustria said.

"Can they fight?" Zari asked.

"We didn't just recruit them for their looks." Phoebe said.

"Yeah she was very thorough, I think." I said.

"Yes." Phoebe replied.

"How bad is this going to get?" Selenia asked.

"I don't know, depends on what the U.S.C wants to do." I said.

"Everything has been a cakewalk so far, as long as we don't have to fight them ship to ship." Phoebe explained.

"Should we be scared?" Selenia asked.

"As long as we can avoid ship to ship conflicts no. we have weapons from an alternate reality that defy the laws of physics." I said.

Eventually we all left the bar and returned to the ship. Then I spent the night alone with Pheebles so we could talk.

"Cj, I'm serious, since we're not absolutely going to die anymore, I think we should go back to the old rules, now you can only be with Kitty once a week." She said.

"Yeah so same for you and Saphy." I said.

"Right and Cj you know I'm not doing this to be mean or controlling I'm doing this because I love you and want to be with you without all these other girls." She said.

"Yeah, same, especially now since Kitty is happier that she got to be married to me for a little bit, and now that we're not royally fucked I'm glad we can move on." I said.

Or at least she thought she was married to me, we never actually had a wedding.

"Mhm." Phoebe said.

"I feel closer to you than ever before Pheebles, I'm serious." I said.

"Yeah, me too." She replied.

Kitty came in which at this point was sort of a nightly thing.

"Can I snuggle with you tonight?" She asked.

"Not tonight, tonight is our night." Phoebe said.

"Oh ok, sorry." Kitty said before heading for the door.

"Night Kitty kat." I said.

"Goodnight." She said before leaving.

"Cj why did you agree to marry her if you still love me more?" Phoebe asked after the door close.

"Because I didn't want her to spend the rest of her days with a broken heart. I knew you'd never leave, so I did what I needed to do. Maybe if you showed some restraint and didn't go and make her cry I wouldn't have had to." I said.

"I'm sorry." Phoebe replied.

"That being said, now that we have a chance to escape this, I only want to be with you again." I said.

"I agree, just once a week with her and that's it, no more orgies, no more sharing girls." Phoebe said.

"Well it's about damned time." I joked.

"Atleast until things are a little more stable." Phoebe said.

"Pheebles." I replied.

"Oh come on, I'm still trying to figure out how we can take IceLeomon's wives for a spin." She said.

"Pheebles!" I scolded her.

"Maybe we could trade the newbies for them?" Phoebe asked.

"They're so cute, they're like Chally, always wearing bikinis. There's one for me and one for you."

"Pheebles control yourself." I replied.

She let out a sigh.

"You're right, we shouldn't." She said. "But what should do though is welcome Zari back. Just one more threesome with her and then we'll call it quits for awhile ok?"

"You promise with all of your bottomless heart?" I asked.

"I promise." She replied.

"Ok we'll try to have some fun with Zari, but that's it ok?" I asked.

"Of course." Phoebe replied.

"Anyway, I love you Cj, I'll always love you." Phoebe said.

"Same here, goodnight my queen." I said.

"Goodnight my king." She replied before kissing me goodnight.

The next morning we had more people in the dining room than ever before, breakfast took longer to make with more people now, thankfully Saphy and Selenia knew how to cook now so it didn't necessarily mean more work, they'd get up early to start, then Phoebe and I would join in later after our morning shower. And then we needed to make sure IceLeomon didn't hog most of it, which considering he didn't need to eat anyway, was kind of a problem and then it all made sense why he had 2 wives, he needed both of them to keep him under control. His wives didn't even know he didn't need to eat until his excessive eating prompted Kitty and Saphy to bring it up, fire erupted from their eyes and they both started to chew him out right then and there over a myriad of past events while the rest of got a show along with our breakfast. I don't know how the hell they worked things out after that but they did.

We headed to the place Henry told us to go and waited for the right time. The ship was so much busier now, there was always somebody in the hallway, the newbies tended to hang out together and were usually either at the pool or in the rec room, or just kind of exploring the ship, generally they just acted like a group of college students, as they were all in their mid-20s, sometimes it could be annoying. Everyone else kind of maintained their own habits. IceLeomon was usually in the rec room or hanging out with Zari on the bridge which almost seemed scandalous, but really he was interested in Zari's experience as a captain, despite not really being a captain himself. His wives were always together and sometimes by the pool or with him on the bridge, they seemed to like the pool a lot, probably because it was the coldest place on the ship, though they didn't spend as much time in it as Saphy. Kitty, still fascinated with their living situation, would hang out with them on occasion, if she wasn't with me or Pheebles. Other than that they pretty much kept to themselves. Chalana liked the pool as well but she wasn't there as often because she was usually with the other newbies.

"So what are we going to do today Pheebles?" I asked as the ship was maneuvering towards the station Henry told us to go to.

"It's only 16, they don't want to see us until 20." I said.

"You wanna go hang out with Zari?" She asked.

"Ok sure, if you're ready for some exercise." I replied.

"Yep and then we can come back and have some fun." She replied.

"Allright then." I said.

Eventually we found Zari running down the deck 4 hallway with IceLeomon, it was at that point I knew those two were going to be partners one day. Unfortunately no digivice appeared yet, and probably wouldn't until we were back in the digital world, but still. We exercised with them for a while until Iceleomon left to go find his wives, leaving us alone with Zari and allowing Pheebles to put her plan into action.

"Zari you know we really missed you." Phoebe said.

"I'm just glad you weren't killed." Zari replied. " I saw the damage you did to that frigate, I never thought you would've made it out any better."

"They were going to execute you?" Phoebe asked.

"After almost a century of service, fuck them." Zari replied.

"Well, we're glad you're ok, but we still have to punish you for being a traitor though." Phoebe said.

"I didn't betray you." Zari said.

"She knows, it's just part of the game." I explained.

"Let's go back to our room." Phoebe said. "Where we can have a little more privacy."

"Oh it's that kind of punishment." Zari said.

"Of course what did you expect?" Phoebe asked. "We're very civil here."

So we worked together to fuck Zari silly before I finished with my baby girl. After a few minutes of snuggling with both of them, we had to get dressed and head to where the meeting was going to take place. The last threesome we would have for a while, as Phoebe was surprisingly adamant about focusing on me. The newbies stayed on the ship along with IceLeomon's wives.

The station was a mid-sized town in the heart of U.S.C space, the location, a rented-out office space with trash bags blacking out the windows. It was there we met U.S.C Space Grand Admiral Lazeris, the leader of the entirety of the U. space borne fleet, U.S.C Grand Invasion Admiral Xerxes, the U.S.C's equivalent of an army general, responsible for supervising every military operation that occurs planetside, using tanks and other terrestrial vehicles and the ships responsible for deploying them onto the surface of a planet. There was also a small entourage of soldiers serving as a security detail, a few prominent U.S.C scientists and the U.S.C president Gladstone V herself, albeit remotely from a secure location on another nearby station through a video chat interface. So there were a lot of powerful people in one room and to them we revealed everything we knew about deusmon, our history, and our plan to defeat him. A plan was quickly put in place to take back the time machine from the Zelusians and complete it, after initial requests for cooperation failed. Most importantly, it was agreed that once the time machine had been used, it would be destroyed, to prevent either side from taking advantage of its game-breaking power. The next day, ships were marshalled, and sent to war. The Zelusians put up a hell of a fight, casualties were suffered on both sides, but ultimately the U.S.C prevailed, and once again we were in control of the time machine. We didn't take part in the war, oddly enough, we just watched it on tv, it's not every day capital ships engage other capital ships. It was hard for Zari to watch, but it was necessary.

The Zelusians eventually surrendered, a certain admiral, the same one that got Zari arrested, was put in jail for gross incompetence, Zari was exonerated, but not given her job back, due to our eminent departure, she was basically honorably discharged, and the proposal for cooperation was re-evaluated, but before they could accept it Zelusian scientists had already been voluntarily paper clipped in. For a few days after the battle Phoebe tried to help with the development of the time machine, though really she only knew the jist of how it worked and a after a few days all we got out of them were status updates. With completion of the machine a few weeks away, and being allowed in U.S.C space again, we retreated to Paloran 1, a station in the vicinity of Paloran, for what would be, after a little over a century, our final weeks in this universe, everyone took shuttles to the planet and hit the beach, except for Iceleomon, his wives, and Chalana who couldn't stand the tropical climate, and Zari who stayed behind to keep an eye on them and the ship. Henry and Claire joined them eventually. While Phoebe and I went to a private resort alone to reconnect and have some time to ourselves, away from the others. Though we were only there for two days before Phoebe decided we should bang our masseuse, she was such a pretty little thing, with light yellow skin, pink hair and these cute little antenna dealies on her head, but at this point I honestly can't remember her name and as sad as it is she really was just another notch on the bed.

"Cj our masseuse is such a cutey." Phoebe said as we entered the massage room together wearing nothing but some towels. "I know you were looking at her."

"So?" I asked.

"I was too." Phoebe said.

"and?" I asked.

"I already put my plan in place." Phoebe said.

"I thought we were here to get closer together." I said.

"We are, and what better way is there to do that then sharing such a pretty little thing together?" Phoebe asked.

"How about just being together?" I asked.

"We're already doing that though, I want to be closer." Phoebe said.

"Ok, but just her and no more." I said.

"Deal." Phoebe replied.

"So how are we going to do this?" I asked.

"Just wait." Phoebe said.

Phoebe asked her if she wanted to come with us, probably just to help get my mind off of Kitty, but she refused.

"How much longer do you think this journey will be Pheebles?" I asked as we layed next to each other in a hot tub in our rather luxurious room.

She had this custom-made bikini of sorts that somehow covered her breasts, but accommodated her psyhorn by going around it with some straps in a vertical rhombus shape. I guess it wasn't a true bikini in the traditional sense, but the idea was the same.

"I don't know. I just hope we don't get separated again." Phoebe said.

"Yeah, I hope so too, but what are we going to do huh? We can't just hold hands in battle all the time." I replied.

"Yeah, but still Cj, we now know not to blow up portal machines." Phoebe said.

"Or at least that one." I replied, faintly remembering we had destroyed them before with negligible results.

"Well you never know if they will suck us into another dimension or not so no more." Phoebe replied.

"Yeah, you're right, it's not worth being separated from you for so long again." I said.

-A few moments of quiet relaxation later-

"Man I barely remember what the digital world was like, it's weird to be going back there after so long." I said.

"And the weird part is we'll be going back to the exact moment we left. Almost." Phoebe said.

"Yep." I replied.

"Do you think we should take Kayla with us?" I asked.

"Nah, she's better off here." Phoebe said. "Think about it, this is the most advanced universe we've seen, the only one with functional space travel."

"True." I replied.

"It would be like when you and Aranea got beamed aboard that ship." She said.

"Yeah, it did take her awhile to adjust, but she adjusted." I replied.

"What about the newbies then?" I asked, as she didn't seem to want to change her mind.

"If they want to come they can come. If they want to stay here they can share the ship with Kayla, we should leave it for her so she doesn't get stuck at that bar forever." Phoebe said.

"I'm going to miss that ship." I said.

"You miss our bus?" Phoebe asked.

"Not as much as I'm going to miss that ship." I said.

"That's understandable." She replied.

"Spent every dime I had on that ship, Kitty too." I replied.

"No you didn't, we got lots of money at home." Phoebe said.

"I meant all the money I had in this universe." I replied.

"Yeah well, it's a really nice ship." She said.

"That it is." I replied.

"Atleast you didn't have to watch it explode." She said.

"Awe Pheebles, you miss your ship?" I asked.

"A little bit, but it doesn't mean much since I have you." She replied.

"Awwe, baby girl." I said as I amorously gazed into her eyes.

"So how does your time machine work?" I asked.

"Um the inner ring spins around, and then it burns a lot of fuel cells very quickly like a warp drive, but, instead of using it for propulsion it uses it to combust the stable powdered form of element 400 which creates chronoton particles which then are magnetized to the same inner ring and are spun around really fast which creates a hole in space time, with the exact destination time depending on the rpm of the machine.

"So like 400 rpm is four hundred years ago?" I asked.

"No, Cj, it spins at hundreds of thousands of rpm and the exact speed needed for a certain destination time is determined by a complicated formula I don't remember, but the eggheads know. You need 200000 rpm for it to even disrupt time at all. Anyway, while they still knew what they were talking about, they worked it out, and they found that we need exactly 365493 rpm to get back to where we need to be. That should put us at about 3 days before we entered this world, plenty of time to get to the spot where the rift will appear. " Phoebe explained.

"Ok if you say so." I replied.

"Anyway enough about that, how long has it been since we made love in a hot tub?" She asked.

"I don't even know baby girl, probably more than 100 years." I said.

"Well you know Cj, I can't stand for that." She said as she moved over and sat on my lap.

Yeah I know, but we just got in here let's snuggle for a bit." I said as I lovingly wrapped my arms around her.

"Enjoy the warm water." I said.

"And then each other." She said.

"Right and I can just hold my baby girl for a bit and we don't have to worry about anybody randomly barging in." I said as I kissed her on the cheek.

"I know it's great." She replied. "And then we can tie and then we can hold each other some more."

"You like being held don't you?" I asked.

"Only by you." She replied.

"We can sleep in here." Phoebe said.

"If you want us to wake up looking like a couple of prunes." I replied.

"Oh, right." She replied.

"It's too hot in here to sleep anyway." I said.

"Yeah." She replied. "Oh well."

"Can we go dancing tomorrow?" She asked.

"Of course baby girl, we can do whatever you want." I said.

"Oh, don't be like that, you must want something too." She replied.

"Yeah I want that pussy." I said.

"I know you do you'll get it in a little bit you goofball." She replied. "Anything else?"

"If you could devise a way to take our ship back home with us." I said.

"Yeah, I wish, but no." Phoebe replied. "It will go through the time machine and that's it unless our home does exist in this universe, it might be able to jump there if it has enough fuel, if the signal from a remote could reach it, but the chances of that are next to nothing."

"Oh well." I replied.

"You won't miss that ship as much as you miss your children." Phoebe said.

"True." I replied. "That doesn't make it any less of a damned shame. To abandon such a nice ship."

"Could you imagine if we filled all the rooms with women?" Phoebe asked.

"Yeah, it'd be crazy, and silly, considering there's only two women I really want." I said.

"Two?" Phoebe asked a she stood up and turned around to face me.

"Look I know it's not going to happen, but if you could work things out with Kitty that'd be great." I said.

"Yeah, you're right, it isn't going to happen you weirdo." She said. "Look I know we both love you, but it's very clear I love you more."

"Eh maybe." I said.

"Maybe? She only loves you because you have sex with her!" Phoebe said.

"You think I'm the only one that's ever had sex with her?" I asked. "She's been around, a few times, but she's never cheated on anyone, I never walked in on her playing around with other girls either. "

"Well, that may be, but I went 100 years without anyone just to be with you, while she couldn't even wait for, what was it about 60 while you were with Aranea?" She asked.

"Something like that, but I encouraged her to see other people. I'm extremely surprised she couldn't find anyone, and after Aranea passed she walked away from one of the few relationships she had that was worth a damn to the point where I was expecting a wedding announcement, but no, for some unfathomable reason she walked away from him to be there for me." I said.

"Would you have encouraged me too?" Phoebe asked.

"No I would've left Aranea for you." I said.

"Well that just proves it right there, you love me more." Phoebe.

"No duh, obviously, that's why you're here and not Kitty, I just want things with Kitty to end well." I said.

"Well we could try to do that, but you're not marrying her again under any circumstances whatsoever you understand? YOU ARE MINE!" She said, using her hands to point it out.

"Say that again it's adorable." I replied.

She turned from me.

"CJ, I'm serious." She replied.

"I know." I said. "So why don't you just get that cute little butt back over here, calm down, relax and snuggle some more?"
"Ohhh ok." She said as she returned to my lap.

"Now tell me you are mine." She said as she looked me in the eyes.

"You're mine, and I am yours and it will always be that way forever and ever and ever." I said

"Good." She said before kissing me. "Now let's get naked. We can snuggle more later."

"Oh ok." I replied.

"I'll make you forget all about Kitty." She said as she stood up again and tried to get out of her bikini.

"You can try." I replied.

"Oh, but I can." She said as she threw her bikini off to the side.

"Yeah, but you won't." I said.

"Why shouldn't I? " She asked.

"Because you can't make her forget, and you love me and despite everything, I know you're a sweet little gardevoir that would never abuse her powers like that." I said.

"Yeah, that's true." She replied. "Now stop staring at me and get your clothes off too." She said as she cutely covered herself with her arms.

"Ok ok." I said.

"I meant I'll make you forget her without using my powers." She added as I stood up to undress myself.

"Well you're more than welcome to try." I said.

"I know." She replied as we huddled together, both naked, standing in warm, knee-deep water.

We made love, then returned to our bed, Phoebe put her nightgown on, then we called Zari to check up on her and everyone else still on the ship to be greeted by Henry and Claire, we talked with them for awhile about nothing particularly important, though they did announce their intentions of coming back with us, then we snuggled a little bit before falling asleep.

The next day we toured the place I had lived at for about half a century, we paid one final visit to Aranea's grave, where we left some flowers, then we headed to the bar I used to frequent, where we coincidentally met Kitty, Saphy, Selenia, and Illustria, who were taking a separate vacation and staying at a different place. It wasn't that surprising to see them since Kitty used to come here too.

"Cj why are Kitty, Saphy, and the others here?" Phoebe asked.

"Kitty use to come here too you know? Sometimes we'd go together even, she's probably just showing them around." I said.

"Cj, Phoebe, Hi, how's your vacation going?" Kitty said as she ran over and hugged me before I could even think to do anything. Much to Phoebe's annoyance.

"Hi." Sapphy shyly said.

"Hi Saphy." Phoebe said. "Kitty." She said with a slightly sarcastic tone.

"Showing the newbies around Kitty Kat?" I asked.

"Mhm." She replied as she let go of me.

"Hi." Said the newbies.

"Having fun on the beach?" I asked.

"Yeah." Selenia replied.

"Having fun with each other?" Illustria asked.

"Definitely, lots and lots of fun." Phoebe said as she hugged me, almost too tightly to the point where her psyhorn began to press into me hard enough to hurt me.

"Pheebles take it easy that hurts." I said as I tried to push her away.

"Oh, sorry" She said as she kissed me on the cheek before letting me go.

"I see." Ilustria said.

"You two got anywhere you want to go, before we leave this reality, possibly forever?" I asked. "Or are you fine spending the rest of your time here on the beach?" I asked.

"Not really." Ilustria replied.

"I'd like to say goodbye to my father, but I don't know where he is." Selenia said.

"How long has he been gone?" Phoebe asked.

"A couple years." She replied.

"You think Henry might know him?" I asked.

"It's a long shot, and if he does, I'm not too sure we want too." Phoebe said.

"Yeah, but, I just want to say goodbye." She said.

"You know that means you'll have to tell us your last name." Phoebe said.

"But you already know." Selenia said.

"Yeah, but, Henry will have to know too if you want his help." Phoebe replied.

"Hey guys what can I get you to drink?" Jackey, the familiar bartender asked.

"Hey wasup?" I asked.

"Nothing much. Nice to see you back in here." He said.

"Yeah, hate to say it, but this might be the last time." I said.

"Awe, why?" He asked.

"We need to continue our journey back home." Phoebe replied.

"Well best of luck to ya then. How about one last round, on the house?" He said.

"Thanks, best of luck to you as well." I replied.

"Mhm." Phoebe agreed.

"Yes, good luck." Kitty added.

"So who are these two lovely ladies?" He asked.

"Oh we picked up some new recruits." I replied.

"They're the newbies." Kitty said.

"Ah I see." Jackey replied.

"I'm not a newbie." Saphy pointed out.

"Oh yeah, you weren't here last time." Phoebe said.

"Yeah, Jackey, this is Saphy, she's not a newbie she just wasn't here last time, she's a digimon like me." Kitty said.

"I see, well since this is your last time here, you mind if I get one more picture? For the wall?" He asked.

"No, go ahead." Phoebe replied.

"Great." Jackey said as we all smiled for the camera, a Polaroid looking thing he seemed to have on him at all times, it was basically a digital camera with a built in printer.

He took the picture, and added it to the current stack of photos he had behind the bar hat he planned to tack in the walls eventually. Then everyone ordered drinks.

"So what's going to happen to your ship after we leave?" Selenia asked.

"We need to arrange for it to be given to Kayla." Phoebe said.

"For the baby?" Kitty asked.

"Of course." Phoebe replied.

"Cj it's our ship." Kitty said.

"I know, but we can't take it with us so you either stay here with it or come with us." I said.

"You know I'm going with you. I have too." Kitty replied.

"Allright then." I said. "It would be weird to park the thing in our backyard anyway." I said.

"Yes it would." Phoebe replied.

"Devon Co would go nuts." I said.

"Yep, everybody would, so we might as well leave it here with Kayla unless anybody else wants to object." Phoebe agreed.

"I could have it if I stayed here?" Ilustria asked.

"If you're willing to split it with Kayla." Phoebe replied.

"Who is that again?" She asked.

"She's cool." Selenia said.

"It's up to you, you can keep rolling with us or you can have the ship. " I said.

"You can stay here or explore an infinite number of possible universes containing things you can't possibly imagine. I know it's not being a bounty hunter like you wanted, but, I mean, you probably won't get another chance to do this." Phoebe said.

"Ok I'll go with you then." Ilustria said.

"Great." Phoebe replied.

" I just realized our bus is going to be really crowded now." I said.

"You saying that just made me realize we should probably get the newbies some sleeping bags and other supplies." Phoebe said.

"You could go to Jungle Jeph's, they have all kinds of camping stuff like that." I said.

"Where's that?" Phoebe asked.

"You have to go south on the highway for a while and then there's a really long bridge to the southern island, there will be a huge sign with what looks like a monkey man with a big, but tattered 56un top hat, you can't miss it."

"Do people go camping on the beach?" Saphy asked.

"Well, no, not really, but the southern island also has a huge ass jungle that people frequently explore. Kitty and I went on safari once, I was never able to convince Aranea to go. They have this thing, they call a shishipoin, it's like a cross between a cheetah and a scorpion, it's fucking scary as hell.

"What's a cheetah?" everyone but Phoebe and Kitty asked.

"It's like a neblong but big and long, it's yellow with black dots all over it, and it can run really fast." I said.

"Is it cute?" Ilustria asked.

"Um, depends on what you would define as cute." I replied, unsure of an appropriate answer.

"Then what's a scorpion then?" IIustria asked.

"It's a big creepy bug thing." I said.

"Say no more." Phoebe said. "I don't like big bugs."

"You like to smush them." I replied.

"The best bug is a smushed bug." Phoebe said.

"Not grenarian meat beetles." Ilustria said.

"Oh yeah I've heard of those." I said.

"It's a shoebox sized beetle that eats tree roots, they're delicious apparently, they're like super tender steak." I explained.

"Yeah that's right." Ilustria agreed.

"Have you ever had one?" Phoebe asked.

"Got close, it didn't work out." I said.

"I kind of want one now." Phoebe said.

"Maybe if you ask Zari really nicely." I replied.

"You can buy them here?" Ilustria asked.

"There's a restaurant in the north that raises them on site and sells them, they hate the cold, so naturally they love the tropical environment here." I said.

"Oh yeah I remember we went there once on a date." Kitty bragged.

"You took her on a date?!" Phoebe jealously asked.

"Well we were technically a couple, so uh, well that was over a decade ago I'm surprised she remembers." I said.

"How could I forget?" Kitty asked.

"But you didn't try it?" Illustria asked.

"They were out, but we got to see their breeding pairs, it was fun, they're really ugly, but also kind of cute in weird way." Kitty said.

"You took her on a date?" Phoebe asked.

"Pheebles, at that point I hadn't seen you for almost a century, I didn't even know if you were still alive." I said.

"Cj, before we leave I demand you take me there." Phoebe said.

"They told us that to get one you have to get a reservation months in advance." I said. "They only breed once a year and only have 20 or so eggs at a time, which isn't really a lot for a bug, they're also very difficult to raise as they are insects after all, so they aren't the most intelligent things, and they really only have about a pound or so of meat on them total, so that explains the price."

In the wild it wasn't uncommon for them to die from accidently getting flipped onto their back, or drowning in heavy rain. It is also very common for the larvae to murder each other over food resources. Raising them effectively requires almost constant monitoring. And even then most of them don't make it to maturity. While they are usually docile, it's important to know that their mandibles are very powerful and capable of severing hands, limbs and fingers with ease. Though in nature they are usually too sluggish to utilize them effectively. Wild canines can easily overpower them. In addition to their meat, their carapaces are also valuable, are about an inch thick when mature, weigh a solid 20lbs on average and are about as hard as oak wood. They are very deep red in color with a slight iridescent sheen. When polished and cut to shape, they're used in everything from pistol grips to little interior trim pieces of various cars. They would protect the beetle quite well, but unfortunately, it's underside is quite soft, and most creatures are very quick to figure this out. That said, it does protect them from getting clawed to death by equally huge birds, which on their native planet of Grenaria are their main predators.

"I'll get around the reservation, we have to do this." Phoebe said.

"If you can get Zari to give us the money." I said.

"Thankyou." Phoebe replied.

"Without your powers." I added seconds later.

"Oh come on. Fine." Phoebe replied.

"I want to go too." Ilustria said.

" So do I." Kitty added.

"That's part of the point." Phoebe said. "Cj is my husband."

"He's mine too." Kitty said.

"Yeah, but you're just his virara not his wife, and you already went there with him anyway. So ha." Phoebe said.

"Will you save some for me?" Kitty asked.

"Of course if they have any, I still owe you don't I?" I said. "But they also might be out again and there's nothing Phoebe's powers can do about that."

"What else do you owe her?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't know. It was 20 years ago Pheebles, I can't bring up everything at once." I said.

"I need to call Zari. Selenia can I borrow your phone?" She asked.

"Um, yeah ok." Selenia replied. "I don't get why you don't have your own."

"I left it on the bus 100 years or so ago." Phoebe said.

"You couldn't have gotten another one since then?" Selenia asked.

"Didn't need one until now." Phoebe said.

"Also the battery was dead." I said.

"Yep. You won't believe how hard it is to find a compatible charger." Phoebe said.

"Could probably splice one." I said.

"Maybe." Phoebe replied as she got up to make a call to Zari. "Now if you'll excuse me for a moment."

"You miss me?" Kitty asked after she left.

"It's only been a few days Kitty Kat, but yeah a little bit." I replied.

"You know there's not much point in saying anything to me you wouldn't say with Phoebe here." I said.

"Well if she gets mad at me for that it's her problem." Kitty replied.

"Very true." I agreed.

"What is with you three?" Selenia asked.

"Phoebe wants me to herself, I want both her and Kitty to be happy, but on top of that Phoebe and I have kids, so, she has a little more authority. That's why we're staying at a different place because she thinks it will help us reconnect." I said.

" You mean so she could get you away from me." Kitty said.

"More or less, but before you start hating her, she could erase my memory of you at any point, but she refuses, allright? She's not that mean, we're just all in a weird situation." I replied.

"And she's probably letting you fuck her every night." Kitty said.

"Yeah, well, she was always like that." I replied. "And if it was us you would too."

"Yeah probably." Kitty agreed.

"Weirdos." Ilustria said.

"And if it was just Phoebe and I." Saphy said.

"No she wouldn't without my permission." I replied.

"Awwe." Saphy replied. "But you would without hers?"

"No, but, no." I said, confused.

"Anyway, the thing is, both of them have been really good to me and I can't walk away from either one." I said.

"Awwwe thanks." Kitty replied.

"Kitty can you come over here for a second?" Phoebe asked from the front door.

"Oh great now what does she want?" Kitty asked.

"Keep it civil don't cause a scene." I said.

"Yeah, but what about her?" Kitty asked.

"If she's a jerk to you signal me, I'll step in." I replied.

"Ok fine." Kitty replied as she got up from the table and reluctantly headed outside.

"Should I go with her? " Saphy asked.

"I don't think it will get too ugly, you can stay here it's fine." I said.

A few moments of awkward silence later.

"Actually I'm going to go out and make sure nothing bad happens." I said.

"Ok." Saphy replied.

"Make sure these two don't start fights with the other patrons." I said.

"That's literally never happened before." Ilustria replied.

"Eh, actually." Selenia spoke up, starting a conversation that would last them until I returned.

"Seriously when did that happen?" Illustria asked.

One night, in pirate space, after Selenia had joined us, but before we met the other newbies and IceLeomon, she overheard somebody talking bad about somebody that she told us was one of her father's friends. A suspected pirate that we had never heard of before so we didn't bother to question it any further. The idiot decided to escalate it and a fight started and if it wasn't for Phoebe's powers we probably would have been a lot worse for wear. We got very close to being kicked out of the bar for good.

Anyway, at the current moment I went outside just as Phoebe finished talking to Zari over the phone.

"Cj everything is fine." Phoebe said when she saw me.

"Yeah well, generally leaving you two alone together isn't the best idea. That's how this whole thing started in the first place remember." I said.

"What?" Kitty asked as she didn't remember quickly enough.

"Yeah I know." Phoebe replied.

"So why did you call her out here?" I asked.

"Because Zari won't pay for us to go unless she gets to go too, so we're all going." Phoebe explained

"Even the newbies?" I asked.

"No, just us and then Zari." Phoebe said.

"No Saphy?" I asked.

"No Saphy." She replied.

"But Kitty is going?" I asked.

"Well I wanted to be nice." Phoebe said.

"Isn't it great it'll be just like back then." Kitty said as she hugged me.

"Except Pheebles and Zari will be there." I said.

Phoebe hugged me as well.

"It will be fun." She said.

"As long as they're in stock. Anyway so we doing this tonight or?" I began to ask.

"No tomorrow, it's too late tonight. Come on, let's go back inside and don't tell the others." Phoebe interrupted.

"Allright then." I replied.

With nothing else to say we headed back inside.

"How'd things go?" Saphy asked.

"Like I said things didn't get too ugly." I replied as Phoebe gave Selenia her phone back.

"Here are your drinks guys sorry it took so long, huge party just came in. I think there was a wedding or something." Jackey said as he handed us our drinks.

"Thanks man." I replied.

"So Saphy how have things been going for you?" Phoebe asked.

"I punched a shark." Saphy said.

"You what?" Phoebe asked in disbelief.

"four eyes, arrow shaped head?" I asked.

"Mhm." She replied.

"Swam too far out into the ocean didn't you?" I asked.

"Maybe." Saphy replied.

"Just be careful they got some real sea monsters out there, those sharks are actually pretty harmless. That's why they have those barriers around all the beaches, you're not supposed to swim passed those." I said.

"Like the sea tape." Kitty said.

"Yeah the sea tape." I replied.

"What's that?" Saphy asked.

"It's a big ass sea snake. They call it that because it sticks to its prey, wraps around it and squeezes the life out of it, like a constrictor, but it's underwater so it's even worse. Sometimes they get big enough they'll go after small fishing boats for their cargo. They just pull them down and swallow them whole, with or without the crew." I said.

"And this is a real thing?" Saphy asked.

"On this planet yeah, stick to the shallows." I said. "And that's just what they've seen from the coast. This planet is 80% water, fuck knows what else is out there in the middle of nowhere. They cover the fishing boats with spikes to keep them from grabbing on. "

Surprisingly it worked, most of the time.

"Are you forgetting I can control water?" Saphy asked.

"No, but that stuff can and will sneak up on you if you're not careful." I said.

"I told you it wasn't a good idea. Those signs are there for a reason." Illustria said.

"Maybe there's an underwater city out there, like the planet I ended up on." Saphy suggested.

"Eh, it's possible, who knows? They haven't seen any sapient life on this planet yet. They don't have any big ocean ships either. Just boats and trawlers, because they don't even need them. We're on the largest land mass on this planet right now, the big three islands, then there's a few small island chains all over the place. A few are privately owned, most are uninhabited or have extremely small communities of less than 500 people or so, they're basically little private wannabe countries of like-minded individuals, some are pretty social and reasonable, while others are just plain crazy to the point where it's just best to stay away from their resident islands." I said.

"So Kitty did you go swimming too?" Phoebe asked.

"Nuh uh no way." Kitty replied.

"We couldn't get her to go in the water no matter what." Ilustria said.

"Yeah, she's always been like that, even when we lived here." I said.

"Salt water is even worse." Kitty said. "It makes my eyes sting."

"She won't go near the water unless it's for, well you know."

"Sex." Phoebe said.

"Pheebles that wasn't necessary." I said.

"I know, but it was fun." She replied as Kitty blushed.

"Oh really?" Ilustria asked.

"Yeah I got her to come with me into the pool once." I said.

"And the shower." Phoebe added.

"Enough, stop it you guys." An embarrassed Kitty pleaded.

"Sorry baby you know I love you and Pheebles, is just being Pheebles." I said.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Phoebe asked.

"You're just trying to get on her nerves again. " I said.

"I am not, I'm trying to make her look bad." Phoebe said.

"As if that's any better." I replied. "Quit your bullying."

"What are you going to do about it?" She asked.

"The real question is what am I not going to do Pheebles? " I said.

"Damn." Ilustria chimed.

"Really?" Selenia asked.

"Ok, fine you win, sorry Kitty." Phoebe said.

"Good girl." I said.

"What was he not going to do?" Saphy asked.

"None of your business." Phoebe replied.

"Pheebles." Saphy said.

"Saphy." Phoebe responded in kind.

"It was you wasn't it?" Illustria guessed.

"Huh?" Phoebe asked. "Great she already knows us too well."

"You two are really weird." Ilustria said.

"Yeah well all of you slept with us, so we're all weirdos." Phoebe said.

"Mostly just you two." Ilustria said.

"Mostly just her." I said.

"Hey!" Phoebe exclaimed.

"No you're pretty weird too." Ilustria said.

"You married me." Phoebe said.

"Yeah I did, maybe I'm a weirdo too." I said.

"As long as we're weird together why is that such a bad thing?" Phoebe asked.

"I guess it's not really." I said.

"We can be weird together forever." She said.

"Why not?" I replied.

"What about me?" Kitty asked.

"I don't know what about you?" Phoebe replied.

"Love you Kitty Kat." I said.

"Love you." Kitty cutely replied.

"I guess if Cj loves you I should learn to love you too." Phoebe said.

"Awwwe Pheebles." I replied.

"But you're still our Virara." Phoebe said.

"What if we could be sister wives?" Kitty asked.

"Well, I always wanted a sister." Phoebe said. "I'll think about it."

"Awwe now it's a weirdo threesome." Ilustria said.

"Not yet." Phoebe replied." I haven't thought about it yet."

"When are you going to think about it?" Kitty asked.

"I don't know, maybe tomorrow. What is in this drink?" Phoebe asked.

"What did you order again?" I asked.

"Island delight." She said.

"Well fuck Aranea use to get those." I said.

"And there's our problem." I said.

"What's in them?" Ilustria asked.

"It's 50% splacht extract, Paloran rum, some sea salt and some other things I don't remember, it's around 30% alcohol I think, so yeah, it's not as bad as pure splacht extract, but still pretty heavy." I said.

"Shouldn't that be in a shot glass then?" Selenia asked.

"You'd think, but no, that stuff is famous here." I said.

As iconic to Paloran as Vodka is to Russia and Tequila is to Mexico. Invented by one of the original settlers of the planet, Acoloni Alboosegie about 200 years ago.

"Now it's an even weirder threesome." Ilustria said.

"We can make it a foursome, we can wash your mouth out with Cj's cock." Phoebe said.

"Okaaaaay somebody has had a little too much." I said.

"She still has half a glass full." Ilustria said.

"That's her second I think, we had one before you showed up." I said.

"How could you let her?" Illustria asked.

"She never told me what she ordered until now, she wouldn't take any advice from me, she wanted to experience this place like it was our first time so she went up to Jackey and asked him for drink suggestions and I was basically left out of the conversation." I said.

"I am not drunk." Phoebe said.

"Yes you are I can see it in your eyes." I replied.

"That doesn't even make any sense." She replied.

"Oh yeah then why are you waving your arms around?" I asked.

"Because it's fun." She replied as she started to wave her arms around more.

"You done?" I asked once she stopped.

"No I'm going to keep going." She replied.

"Guess I'll get an island delight too." I said.

"How are you going to get back to the resort?" Ilustria asked.

"I don't now, it could be the last chance I have to ever have one. We'll get a taxi maybe, I don't know. "

"Jackey boy can I get another Island Delight over here?" I asked the bartender from across the room.

"Sure thing, might be awhile though." He replied.

"That's fine, got plenty of time, night's still young." I said.

"Can I get one too?" Kitty asked.

"Sure thing Kitty Kat." Jackey replied.

"Me too." Saphy said.

"Three Island Delights, got it."

"And one more for the newbies." I said.

"Any more you want to add?" Jackey asked.

"Naw four's enough." I said.

"Hey one of us has to drive back to the hotel." Ilustria said.

"I know, that's why I only got one more. Question is which one is driving?" I asked.

And just like that I pit the newbies against each other.

"I don't need to drive I can teleport." Phoebe said. As the newbies began their own argument.

"I don' think you can manage either right now." I said.

"You're right I can't focus enough to teleport, weird." Phoebe replied.

A few seconds later she started to float up out of her seat.

"Pheebles what are you doing?" I asked.

"I can still levitate." She said.

"Do you have to do that now?" I asked.

"Oh come on it's fun." She said as I grabbed her by the leg.

"Sit back down you don't need to start flying all around the room and causing a scene." I said.

"Awwwwwe." She replied.

"No more drinking for you." I said.

"You're always such a buzzkill." She said.

"Allright then guess I'm going home with Kitty tonight." I said.

"No wait don't Cj I wuv you." She replied as she hugged me.

"But I'm a buzzkill." I said.

"No you're not you're my everything." She aid.

"Awwwe aren't you sweet all of a sudden?" I replied.

"I'll be sweet from now on." She said.

"Oh you will?" I replied.

"Mhm." She said before kissing me on the cheek several times.

"Pheebles that's enough." I said.

"Awwe she's so cute." Illustria said.

"I'm not cute I'm sexy." She replied as she reached for her drink, which I pushed away from her because she clearly had too much, so she resorted to attempting to use her powers to retrieve it instead, which in her state resulted in the glass tipping over and spilling her Island Delight all over the table.

"No Cj how could you?" She asked.

"You did that yourself." Kitty pointed out.

"Pheebles you've had enough that just proves it." I said. "You want some water? We'll get you some water."

"Phhh, ok." She said, disappointed as Saphy used her own abilities to quickly clean up the mess.

"Awe thankyou Saphy you fixed it." Phoebe said.

"No I didn't, I just cleaned it up, it's dirty now. Don't drink it." Saphy replied as she kept the glass out of her reach.

"Hey can we get a water over here too?" I asked.

"Sure thing, I just need a minute." Jackey replied.

"Awe you too?" Phoebe replied.

"Yes." Saphy said. "You don't want to drink this now it's got dirt in it from the table. "

"And cleaning fluid and god knows what else." I added.

"Don't drink anymore you'll regret it tomorrow." Saphy said.

"Can I please get qnother one then?" She asked me telepathically.

"Pheebles, if you get so drunk you knock yourself out you know that means we can't have any fun tonight?" I asked.

"We can't?" She asked out loud.

"No, not if you're unconscious." I said.

"Ok, ok, I'll stop." She said once again out loud to the others confusion. "But I'm not unconscious yet."

"Well you won't know if you've had enough to knock yourself out until after you wake up." I said.

"Why would you be going unconscious?" Saphy asked.

"We're having a private conversation through telepathy, but she's a bit confused so she's saying a lot of things out loud instead." I explained.

"What were you saying?" Saphy asked.

"It's a secret." Phoebe replied.

"The parts she didn't say out loud anyway." I said.

"Yeah so bleh!" Phoebe added, playfully sticking out her tongue.

"Here are your Island Delights." Jackey said as he brought over a whole tray of the things.

"Drink it slow, enjoy it." I said as they were passed around.

"Right." Kitty replied.

"To finally getting back to the digital world." I said as I held up my glass.

"But Cj we haven't done that yet." Phoebe pointed out.

"Yeah, but we will." I replied.

"Cj, you're a big weirdo and I love you but sometimes you're."

"Just raise your glass you drunk little mess." I interrupted her.

"Phhh ok." She replied as she finally joined the toast with her glass of water.

Apparently Selenia was going to drive them home that night, I didn't hear their argument, thanks to Phoebe's antics, but Illustria took an island delight and she didn't.

"So you like it?" Kitty asked as Ilustria and Saphy drank their first.

"Mhm." Illustria said.

Saphy didn't reply.

"Wish I could have one." Selenia said.

"You can come back tomorrow and get one, or, well they basically sell them everywhere here." I said.

"I bet Cj knows where there's even better ones." Phoebe said.

"The Double A brewery bar, probably, but they're hardly ever open." I replied.

A pretty substantial factory that provided a lot of jobs for those living on the middle island. What was once a single, beat up still in Alboosegie's shed evolved into an entire industrial complex over the course of 3 generations and 200 years. Alboosegie's great grandson was still running the damned thing even though he was in his 80s. The first two generations were dead before we even moved here and the third not too long after. It was already well established by the time we moved here, though it had expanded a little bit since then. A proud fixture of the middle island's industrial district. They gave tours of course, and, being a brewery, had a bar onsite where people were given a few hours where they were allowed to sample their various products at the end of said tour. Getting hammered was encouraged if you had a safe way home. Sadly said bar was only open for tours and a handful of special events.

"How do they stay in business?" Illustria asked.

"Because it's not really a "bar" bar, it's more of an extension of the brewery, they only let people in who are taking a tour, or on special events a few times a year.

"Can we get a tour?" Illustria asked.

"Probably, but you'll want to book it as soon as you get back to your hotel so it doesn't fill up." I said.

"Great, we can go there tomorrow and you can get some then." Illustria said.

"Ok." Selenia replied.

"Sure, why not?" Saphy agreed.

"It's a good story and free booze what's not to like?" I asked.

"You've been there before?" Phoebe asked.

"Lots of times, I went with Aranea, I went with her and our daughter during one of the rare times she could make it home, I went with Kitty too, just to see what changed after 40 years, it was like a completely different tour." I said.

"How many dates did he take you on?" Phoebe asked.

"I don't remember." Kitty replied.

"20 years' worth Pheebles, 20 years, though honestly I was with Aranea a lot longer." I said.

" I thought you said you tried not to get that close to her." Phoebe said.

"Fine they weren't dates we were just hanging out as friends." I said. "With benefits."

"They were totally dates." Kitty said.

"Do you really love him?" Phoebe asked.

"More than anything." Kitty replied.

"So what else could we do here besides the tour?" Illustria asked, successfully changing the topic.

"Well there's lots of stuff." I said.

"Like?" She asked.

Some minutes passed as Kitty and I continued to discuss various things about this place, while the others finished their drinks and Phoebe sobered up a bit.

She was a bit calmer now, but that also meant she was a bit tired too.

"This really was your home wasn't it Cj?" Phoebe asked once things died down a bit.

"For about sixty years, yeah." I replied.

" You look tired baby girl, How about we get you home before you say more embarrassing things?" I asked.

"How about we stay here and have another sexy party?" Phoebe asked.

"In public?" Illustria asked. "No way!"

"You've got to be kidding me." Selenia said.

"Not here Pheebles, aside from the obvious. This place is sacred. All the memories, all the good times, all the friends we made that are no longer around, if you weren't tired and tipsy I'd ask how dare you suggest such a thing." I replied.

"Ok ok ok, I don't need a lecture dad." Phoebe replied.

"Awe, fuck, let's get back to the resort you silly girl." I said.

"Goodnight." Kitty said as I got up.

"Bye Kitty, see you in a few days or so." I said.

"What about tomorrow?" She asked.

"What about it?" I said with a wink, thankfully she realized her mistake because I had enough to deal with right now.

"Come on Pheebles." I said. "Bye newbies."

"Bye." Said the newbies.

And with that I took Phoebe's hand and with some difficulty led her out of the bar. I drove her back to the resort with our current rental car, tired, but sober enough to drive. I helped her make it to bed, before climbing in bed next to her. We snuggled until we fell asleep, too tired to do anything else.
