Symarion: Call of the Void.

Changing Tides.

“ You little. “ Anthony moaned softly as Ina dissolved her dress the moment the door closed behind Tilly and Modaran, exposing herself to him with the clear hint that she was not willing to wait.

“ Make love, lots, and lots, and lots. “ Ina breathes warmly at him, and then leans in closer to softly tease her lips to his.

It surprised Anthony a little, as she did not simply let him kiss her then, instead teasingly to pull back, making him grab her by the back of her head so he could pull her into their first passionate joining.

She was playful, where the Siren were often more straight forward. And she surprised him further when he pulled his pants down below her, only to try and steer her onto his rod, just to have her hand cover her womanhood to deny him entry.

“ No, special. “ She moaned at him, breaking the kiss just to stop him from his crude claim of her.

For a moment, he had nearly given into the urge to just force her to take him into her, but Modaran’s warning resounded then, that she was not as simple as the others, who were little more then his playthings now.

“ Your a little tease. “ He moaned at her, and then watched as she leaned back, pushing herself up against the table, until she could sit on it, her legs spreading while her hands parted her vulva for him to see the glistening pink flesh below it.

“ Like strawberry, yes ? Anthony taste, Ina, like strawberry. “ Ina uttered then, biting sheepishly onto her lower lip.

It made Anthony raise his eyebrow at her. He was getting what she suggested, but that was showing further how different she was, as the Siren got little out of being orally pleasured. But Ina ? She outright teased him to do it before he was permitted to penetrate her.

“ Now now. Who’s trying to claim who here, hm ?! “ He near growled at her, grabbing her by the ankles to yank her feet up.

It caused her to squeal sweetly, and even more so when Anthony leaned forward to give her a teasing lick across her sensitive flower, only to realize that she wasn’t joking, she actually did taste like strawberries down there.

“ Oh, you little Vixen you ! “ He grunts, pulling the chair forward, so he could then grab her hips, yank her closer towards him, and blatantly dig in on the delicious dish she served him.

“ Yahaa ! “ She squealed out at that sudden assault, her legs crossing behind Anthony’s head, as if to lock him down against herself, and her hands firmly grabbing into his hair, pulling him closer as his tongue begun to greedily explore the pink flesh between her lower lips.

This was delicious on so many levels for Anthony, not only was she enjoying this unlike the Siren, but she was utterly melting under it, and that taste of strawberries, that little tease made sure he would want to spend some time eating her out.

“ Yess. “ He’d groan delighted at her womanhood, biting and tugging at her clitoris playfully, and watching with utter glee how her whole body ached and her grip on his hair grew more desperate.

And just to push her harder, he’d tease around that clitoris with the tip of his tongue, while drinking in how she lay there, mouth open wide in constant shivering moans and heavy breathing.

Until she would suddenly climax, alluring him to only work her harder as the taste of fruit grew stronger. And feeling the assault only growing more intense, Ina actually started to squirm even more, and try to push his head away, only to have him hold her hips in place to keep eating her out.

“ Anthony, yaahaa, stop, Ina, break. “ She whimpered in response, trying to push him away, only to firmly grab his hair again when she was driven into another orgasm.

Oh, this was salve for Anthony’s soul, the pleasure to see her squirm for him like this, to see her in such bliss, he could get addicted to this view.

And he did have a taste for this play, few times as he had gotten to play it in the past. It was something he would have liked to repeat with The Siren, but for them, his pleasure was all they hungered for, as it increased their own.

But Ina, she obviously had her own desires that needed fulfillment, which made him hunger to explore what else made her squirm like this. But first, he needed this cunt to satiate him now, so he could enjoy the feeling that this little tease was his.

“ You liked that, didn’t you ? “ He uttered hungrily, leaning up to shove her further against the table.

“ Anthony, mean ! “ Ina protested, though that satisfied glow on her face suggested otherwise.

“ Oh, I am going to be really mean now. “ He groaned, pulling her legs against his chest, so he could lean against them, and watch how she shivered when his girt begun to grind against her womanhood.

“ I am going to fuck you now, Ina. “ He moaned as he leaned closer, and she only reached up this time to push against his chest, not to bar his attempt to enter her this time.

And taking this as her submission to his demand, he reached down, steered himself against that wet flower, and slowly push in, watching how her eyes fluttered half shut when she was being spread around him.

“ Ina, Anthony’s, yes ? “ She moaned out.

“ Yes, your mine, little Vixen ! “ He responded, grabbing her hands to pin them below his left, just above her head, while his right reached to grab her left hip, holding her in place as he begun to slowly take her.

Remaining slow at first, savoring that shared passion of theirs, before he finally begun increasing the pace, with their eyes glued to one another, as they devoured the pleasure they were giving the other in this act.

Until the moment were Anthony could not hold it back any longer, leaning in to kiss Ina hungrily, while taking her hard and fast, before finally just pushing deep inside of her to lay his claim on her body. So pleased to feel how she joined him in his delight with her own release, leaving them to moan at one another with the utter bliss that they each were getting what they craved.

———

Hours later, they somehow had made it back into Ina’s quarters, if only because it was closer then his. And there he had found out that Ina liked it when he took his time with her, and she offered ample reward in return, be it by servicing him, or by inviting him to outright manhandle her.

A true give and take, one where she still insisted him to take charge, while guiding him to learn were she was weak, and what made her crave to give him everything he wanted. Being both submissive, and demanding at the same time.

In his mind that clicked perfectly, where the Siren were essentially Sex Slave’s to him, Ina was more, like a pet, a Lover that craved to satiate herself, as much as she craved to experience how much he cared to make her give everything she was to him.

“ Selfish little beasty you. “ Anthony uttered teasingly at her, as she lay on the bed with him, her upper body leaning against his chest as they teasingly kissed one another, resting after Ina had seduced him to another round.

Anthony did not even know how long they been at it, but it felt like they been at it forever, which again left him to wonder about his own endurance, which now surely was to his advantage, given how much the two enjoyed themselves.

“ Is not. Ina is Anthony’s. Anthony is Ina’s. “ She countered with a soft giggle.

“ Anthony ? Aria is sending over the data package concerning the Terran and Seltran situation, it should be done in a few minutes. “ Hope called out.

“ Ok, I’ll have a look at it soon. “ Anthony huffed, leaning up onto his arms where he looked at Ina again, seeing how she was frowning at the idea at how he would pay attention to something else already, like she has not had enough yet.

“ Come on now, let’s save some for later. “ He offered, and then watched how she grew a sheepish smile.

“ Anthony, like Cherry ? “ She teased then, causing Anthony to raise his eyebrow at her, and then grow a smirk as he was catching on at what she was trying to do here.

“ Ina, like Cherry. Anthony taste, yes ? “ She urged, turning around to present her hindquarters to him.

“ Hope, it may be a little later after all. “ He said, and then grabbed Ina’s hips, causing her to flail and giggle, before the room was being filled by loud moaning again.

“ Understood. “ Hope responded while making a few note’s of the observed changes for Ina.

———

About an hour later Anthony had finally managed to free himself from Ina and her charms.

They had managed to relax a little, and even find the time to eat before he had left, and now he was finally stepping onto the Bridge of the INC Hope, with the intent to explore the claims Modaran had made earlier, about the Terran Commonwealth in particular.

“ You are positively glowing. “ Hope spoke as he entered the bridge, causing Anthony to pause briefly in his steps.

He was surprised, Hope’s intonation had become a lot more realistic now, and by her choice to try and make casual conversation, well it was a moment of pride for him, watching her grow like this.

“ Yes, after this experience, who wouldn’t be ? I guess I have been missing out on some things in the past, and I am still in the process of understanding what I needed.

But I see, your making headway on your social adaptation as well. “ Anthony spoke, getting onto the captains chair where he pulled a display towards himself from which to access the data package send by Aria.

“ Thank you. The Siren are providing a lot of source material for me to work with. “ Hope responded, and then added after a moment, “ Do you regret your past ? “

Anthony paused for a moment, giving it a honest thought.

“ I think, regret would be the wrong word. I was misjudging a lot of things, but I will surely not regret having spend time to learn how to create you.

Human’s are fixated with the idea of leaving a Legacy, and I think I am no different, despite my best efforts. And I like to think that you’ll become the greatest legacy a man can leave behind. “ Anthony admitted.

“ If what the Siren claim is true, you still have a lot of time ahead. Between their ability to prolong human life, and Tilly’s claim of that new organism within you, you should have plenty of time to consider alternative options.” Hope spoke after considering a few options to voice.

“ Maybe. “ Anthony mused, being reminded that he might need to have himself checked in the medical bay.

With how much he could go at it with the girls lately, that organism sure sounded like a godsend right now. At least, under Anthony’s assumption that it was this organism that gave him that boost in vitality.

“ Have you read into the file’s details yet ? “ He asked then, skimming through a few more or less interesting details about the Terran commonwealth.

“ Yes, I do have too little data to correlate this new information with. But claims of system-wide engineering seem fascinating. It should take hundreds of years and a lot of well timed gravitational engineering on account of precise orbit placement, and consideration of other planetary bodies. “ Hope responded.

And as Anthony could not follow at first, as he had not reached that subject yet, Hope would use the main bridge display to project the Sol System as it was now, with Earth, Mars and Venus sharing the same orbit.

“ Huh. They moved planets ? “ Anthony uttered, his eyes wide at the prospect of how much prospective room to grow that offered.

He found himself agreeing with Hope that it needed precise adjustments, and likely even adjustments to the gas-giants so the inner planetary orbits remained stable, now that Bodies like Venus no longer played a role in holding Earth’s orbital balance.

“ Yes, they seem to have used the idea of a Gravitational tow. Constructed massive stations in the orbit of certain planets, and adjusted orbit around the planet so the stations weight purposely influenced the planets path.

These stations then seem to have taken the role of Luna with these worlds, keeping orbital spin and inclination stable.” Hope explained.

“ Huh. “ Anthony uttered, watching Hope’s simulated assumption on planetary movement based on the files information.

“ And their ship design philosophy has matured a lot as well. “ Hope claimed, and then displayed the old Salvador destroyer design.

It was a cross shape when viewed from the front, and a blocky step by step increase on vertical and lateral wing structures, which offered a lot off weapon emplacement room. With a sudden drop in structure to the rear towards the drive system, with the much slimmer structure serving as attachment points for quickly exchangeable fuel and supply tanks.

It somewhat reminded of a throwing dagger in design, a for edged one, and the design required a frontal assault stance, as the tanks in the rear, and the drive itself would be the ships absolute weakness.

And next to it a few new, current Destroyer designs. A heavy Destroyer that was all function over form, build asymmetrical, a massive looking upper body with a general shape of a long, thick rectangle, with a thinner bow structure that was bend forward, like it was made to slam into opposing ships.

The Vessels left side was much thicker though, and it had nearly all weapon emplacements directed to that side, suggesting that the ship followed a broadside approach, facing that side into incoming fire to endure while returning fire itself.

There where other ship designs in the Destroyer class too, a more flat shaped, long design with curved edges that, by the looks of it, was a mobile missile platform, long slim designs that suggested heavy fire support with a sort of, long range weapon focus, and a few others, proposing the idea that Terran’s specialized ships to specific roles now.

But looking at those designs, he felt like he seen some of them before, in that red dwarf system the 02 was in.

“ Hope, the Seltran, do you have ship designs of them as well ? “ He asked.

“ Yes. “ She responded, and displayed a list of ships that followed a more symmetrical design structure. Rounded flat shapes, main weapons attached to wing structures, and central superstructures that made these ships look a bit more like futuristic battleships on the high sea’s rather then space.

And Anthony was sure now, he seen this design philosophy as well around the 02’s wreck.

“ Hope, did they hand a star map with the data ? “ He asked then, hungry to find out more now.

“ Yes. “ She responded, displaying the map, with their current location, showing the Cradle system at the far right of the Terran sectors, if right was even an applicable term in three dimensional space.

But when looking down onto the milky way, Terran space was shown all the way in the southern region, the Seltran at the Northern edge of Terran space, and Cradle all the way to the east of the Terran Commonwealth.

“ Using the distance to the 02, try and calculate the most likely System for it to be located in. It should be a red dwarf star. “ Anthony instructed, to which Hope highlighted four star systems, two of which where in Terran space, one of which was Halfway between Cradle and Sol.

“ Huh. “ Anthony uttered, growing an understanding how far away Sol was, which reminded him of Modaran’s suggestion, that their First had likely helped them to come here, which now sounded quite plausible given the distance.

And that one system, it was marked as a Military High Security area, with only one phase lane connection shown, which probably made it a suitable place to keep secrets. And it was closer then the other options towards Seltran space, but still at least 450 light-years away.

It made him wonder, did they bother towing the wrecks there, and if, why ? To protect Military secrets ? Take apart Seltran ships for theirs ?

Some of the wrecks he seen looked salvageable, least on the outside. So, why not fix them ?

“ Ugh. I think I have a lot to do still. “ He muttered.

“ Hope, sort the available information for me, I want Military and Historical data for now, sort Governmental structure and Economics for later. And link them each between Terran and Seltran for comparison. “ Anthony instructed.

“ Understood. “ She responded while Anthony leaned back in his seat.

This was going to be a long night, and he probably should take care of Alianna too, she had not gotten her fix yet either. Which now, actually felt like work to him given the time constraints. He should at least understand the basics before he dared try stealing ships from under the Terran’s nose.
