First Recruits

by Marilyn Foxworthy

  She giggled and said, “Let go of me! It’s time for breakfast.”

  I held on firmly and said, “Officer Michelle, I think that we should examine at least one more local species. Catch this one and hold it while I make observations.”

  Michelle looked puzzled for a second but then grinned and reached for Bailey.

  I said, “Get on top of it and hold it down. Sit on its chest and face its feet. I want to examine the lower half first.”

  Michelle threw her leg across Bailey’s body and straddled her while I positioned myself between the girl’s knees.

  I said, “Officer Michelle, for goodness sake, do something about the creature’s legs. It’s trying to get away. Grab the thing’s knees and pull them out of the way so that I can get a look at it. Ah! Control it! Sit on its face if you have to!”

  Michelle laughed and yanked Bailey’s legs into the air and pinned them under her arms.

  I said, “Good. Thank you! This thing is wild. Keep it pinned down for its own sake. Now, lean down here and take a look at this. This is interesting.”

  Michelle leaned on her hands, pinning Bailey’s legs spread with her ankles near her ears and Michelle’s crotch on Bailey’s neck. Michelle’s head was directly over Bailey’s crotch and I was on my knees with my hands on Bailey’s thighs.

  I said, “Now, look here. See this fleshy mound between its thighs. It’s fascinating. The coloring and texture along this slit,” and I touched it and ran my finger down the side of the vulva, causing Bailey to squirm.

  Michelle said, “Sorry, Captain. She’s wild and hard to control.”

  I said, “Oh, don’t worry about that. We’ll do what we have to. I suspect that it will calm down in a minute. You said, ‘She’. Do you think that it’s a female?”

  Michelle said, “I expect so. That looks like a pussy.”

  I said, “Oh. I think you’re right. Here, I’m going to feel inside and see what’s there. I’ll just open this up like this and…Michelle, do you see this? There is a naturally slick excretion here. And opening it exposes soft petals, like a flower. Do you suppose the thing is actually a plant-based life-form?”

  Michelle said, “I suspect a hybrid of some kind. Yes, it has flower-like petals surrounding this orifice, which I contend must be a sexual organ, but the mammary tissue suggests an obviously, well mammalian physiology. Fascinating.”

  I said, “True. We’ll get to those in a bit. By the way, I’ve been meaning to compliment you on your tits. I like the color. The nipples are perfect. You really did do a good job with those.”

  She smiled and said, “Did you enjoy the milk?”

  I sat back away from Bailey’s groin for a moment and said, “I really did. Thank you. You know, I’d love to have more of that when we have a chance. I find you very alluring. I know that you’re my First Officer, but I’d like a much more active sexual relationship from now on. Would you be up for that?”

  Michelle said, “That sounds like a perfectly reasonable plan, Captain. I could move into your stateroom for the sake of efficiency and you and I could fuck constantly.”

  I said, “My thoughts exactly.”

  Michelle said, “Do you want to let this one go and make love for a while right now?”

  I said, “Oh, that would be great, but we need to finish our explorations with this one, I’m afraid. For science.”

  Michelle said, “Ah, for science. Well, let’s get on with it. Bailey stop that!”

  I said, “What’s happening?”

  Michelle said, “Your precious wild thing just licked me. I’m keeping her still by sitting on her face, but the creature licked me in a sensitive spot.”

  I said, “How was it?”

  Michelle said, “A bit annoying and I want her to stop it.”

  I said, “Let’s proceed with the fact-finding. OK. It looks like the orifice is opening on its own somewhat.”

  Michelle said, “For the sake of our report, we should call it what it looks like, even if we don’t know what it is.”

  I said, “Good suggestion. OK, the pussy is slick and I can see tiny glistening drops of moisture around the edges. My guess would be that it is a preparation for mating.”

  Michelle said, “Are you going to mate with it?”

  I said, “Not yet. We have to find out what it is first. And, if I mate with it and she escapes or we decide to let it go, both she and I will feel a crushing sense of loss. On the other hand, if it can be tamed and domesticated, or at least house trained, I might decide to take it with us.”

  Michelle said, “It could sleep at the foot of the bed. I don’t think it would be much trouble. I’d be happy to help you bathe it and feed it and play with it.”

  I said, “In that case, if we can prove that it’s sanitary, I say we take it with us. For science.”

  Michelle said, “Of course. For science. Captain, I hate to say this…Bailey, stop that! Anyway, Jimmy, the…Alison might be closer to the game we’re playing now than anything else. We’re playing a game with Bailey…who should definitely stop that before I get really annoyed, but Alison might be more, I don’t know what to say.”

  I said, “You mean that she might be more like an animal in some ways than like you and Bailey? That she might need special care and might not be able to operate as independently.”

  Bailey squirmed under Michelle’s bottom to where she could free her mouth and shouted, “She is going to bond with you in a very deep way! She will need to be with you and will need constant affirmation and attention. And she’s built for sex and will want a lot of it! Don’t we all, you pussy-teasing jerks! Less talking and more touching. I didn’t frustrate you guys this way!”

  I said, “She’s right. Let’s do this. OK, I’m going to feel around inside and see what’s there. Here goes. Just two fingers. It’s hot and wet. There are little bumps and ridges. And here, a little way inside, there’s a fleshly knob. Wow, that was easy. Bailey, you have a really big G-Spot. Hang on. Let me look at something.”

  I pulled my fingers out of her and spread her inner labia. I didn’t even have to pull back a clitoral hood. Her pearl was clearly exposed and swollen and as big as a large pencil tip eraser. About the size of the end of my little finger. It didn’t stick out, but it did bulge wonderfully.

  I said, “Michelle, look at her clit! It’s amazing!”

  Michelle said, “Didn’t you look at me before? We’re both like that.”

  I exclaimed, “I like it. OK, but back to the pussy. Let me just get these fingers back in there and yep, there it is.”

  I rubbed firmly at the G-Spot inside Bailey’s vagina and she grunted and started to buck against my hand.

  Michelle said, “Oh, she likes that! But if she doesn’t stop licking me, I swear I’ll have you spank her. Damn, she has her tongue up in my pussy. Bailey, I’m telling you to stop.”

  I laughed and kept stroking Bailey toward orgasm and Michelle said, “Oh, you think it’s funny? I think there’s something else you haven’t really looked at,” and she stuck her tongue out at me.

  Michelle’s tongue was longer than any tongue I’d ever seen. It stuck out from between her lips at least four or five inches!

  She said, “And she has it up inside me and I’m not enjoying it that much. Damn it, I think she’s going to make me come.”

  Stoking Bailey firmly, I felt her body start to stiffen. Pressing upward with my fingers and placing my thumb at the top of her clitoris, she climaxed hard. I was surprised to feel a splash of warm fluid hit my palm and I pulled my hand away in reaction to it. Her second spurt hit me in the lap, covering my groin with wetness. Another three gushes from her pussy coated my stomach and thighs.

  The smell of her ejaculation filled the shower, and it smelled really good. Sweeter than I would have expected. I wanted to taste it. I dropped quickly to her crotch and started licking. She really did taste as good as I imagined she would and she climaxed again less than a minute later. And then she lay still, panting and trembl
ing.

  I looked up at Michelle and said, “I’m keeping her.”

  Michelle said, “I guess we have to. I don’t think she can live in the wild now. She’d just follow you home anyway.”

  Bailey struggled to free her mouth again and said, “Will you get off of me now?”

  Michelle said, “I don’t know. Maybe I’m not ready. OK, OK, I’ll get off. Don’t lick me there!”

  Michelle rolled off of Bailey and all of us laughed hard.

  I said, “Come on, we need a shower again. This time, everybody wash everybody. Nobody touch themselves. Wash and rinse thoroughly. And Ee, make the wall opaque again. It makes me queasy.”

  Chapter 14 - Provisioning

  Checking on Alison a while later, we found her still resting comfortably. Apparently, extended sedation was common for Units for various reasons, one of them being medical. It was like being back in storage for transport. This wasn’t as deep and didn’t take as much to reverse it because the metabolism wasn’t slowed below normal, but Alison wouldn’t wake up until Michelle or another of us gave her the stimulant. When we did, I’d need to say the safe-word phrase again.

  Bailey wanted to go shopping.

  I asked, “Ee, where are we? And when?”

  Ee said, “After what you guys did in the shower, how should I know? We could be anywhere? In time, at least. I’ll work on figuring it out. I hate to say it, but from now on maybe we stick to sex in normal space if it’s important to not jump around in time and actually get somewhere.”

  Bailey said, “Ee, he can’t always tell when you are joking. We were in normal space during our shower.”

  Ee laughed and said, “Oh, right. OK, we’re about an hour from the station. I chose another Babylon Station. We did go through non-space, but I waited until you were done.”

  Bailey said, “Um, Ee, that seems quick. I would have expected a few days at least.”

  Ee said, “Yeah, about that. I seem to have capabilities that I didn’t have before. It’s like I see non-space in a different way than before. There are shortcuts. It’s pretty cool. Anyway, it’s about an hour.”

  I said, “Ee, what happened to my clothes?”

  She said, “There was damage.”

  I said, “There was not!”

  She said, “Space Moths got them.”

  I said, “No they didn’t!”

  She said, “Land shark.”

  I said, “Land shark?”

  She said, “While you were gone, an encyclopedia salesman sneaked on board and stole them. I told him, don’t steal the captain’s old clothes, but she said, I will if I want to, and I said, oh no you don’t, and she said, oh yes I do, and then she jumped out the window.”

  I said, “What window?”

  Ee said, “We stole that too. She took it with her when she left. But I did get the first volume of the set of encyclopedias. I chose ‘S’ for obvious reasons. We’ll receive an additional volume every month at a very reasonable cost, considering the value of the knowledge that we’ll gain.”

  I said, “Ee, where are my clothes?”

  She said, “I didn’t like them.”

  Bailey laughed and said, “Neither did I. Ee showed them to me. I tossed them in the trash.”

  Ee said, “And the trash got emptied at the last station.”

  I said, “So they’re gone?”

  Bailey said, “They were weird. And not in a good way. We saved what we thought were personal items.”

  This wasn’t going anywhere, so I gave up and moved on.

  I said, “Bailey, show me your tongue.”

  Bailey grinned and stuck out her tongue. It really was long. Just like Michelle’s.

  I said, “Um, explain the function of having a tongue that long.”

  She said, “It’s multi-functional. I suppose. I never thought about it before. They never mentioned it in training.”

  I asked, “Did you like probing Michelle with it?”

  Michelle said, “It was weird.”

  Bailey laughed again and said, “It was kind of fun. Mostly because it was tickling her. I mean, come on, she was sitting on my face. It was my only defense. She does taste good though. What did you think of what happened?”

  I said, “The squirting? It was super fun.”

  Bailey said, “Michelle, you’re the medical officer. Was it weird? That I did that?”

  Michelle said, “No. I don’t think so. I checked the encyclopedia that Ee bought and it says that it’s kind of rare but nothing to worry about and certainly not something for you to try to stop.”

  Bailey said, “I couldn’t help it. When I came, it just happened. It actually felt really nice.”

  I said, “Well, I liked it.”

  Michelle said, “It might not happen every time.”

  Bailey said, “I kind of hope not. I was so aroused though! Wow. Hey, but back to shopping.”

  I said, “Yeah, what do we need?”

  Bailey said, “Well, clothes for one thing. We should get ship uniforms.”

  Michelle said excitedly, “Oh fun!”

  Bailey said, “I know, right! We can get some made at the station. But we should have different uniforms for different um, protocols. You know, everyday wear, dress parade, casual dining, formal fucking, negligee parties, planetary exploration, hyper-planetary alligator wrestling, occasions like that.”

  Michelle said, “I love it. Pants or skirts?”

  Bailey said, “Why choose? We’ll get both.”

  I said, “That sounds really fun. I like that a lot. What about other things?”

  Bailey said, “I can’t think of any ship’s upgrades except weaponry right now, and we can’t afford anything worthwhile yet.”

  Michelle said, “Some fresh food would be nice. Things we can refrigerate or freeze. Something that doesn’t come out of a foil pouch.”

  I asked about the clothes and whether they would have clothes in our sizes. It seemed unlikely. The girls told me that it wouldn’t be a problem and I let it drop.

  An hour and a half later, the three of us were walking through the hangar of a station, headed for the shopping district.

  The clothes were made in a tailoring shop. A tailor met with us and made notes about our sizes. She didn’t measure anything. Apparently she didn’t have to. She had an eye for her work and just looking at us told her what she needed to know. It did require me to go into a room and get undressed for a moment, but it didn’t take long. She was very acquainted with Unit body designs and Bailey gave her the type specifications for herself, Michelle, and Alison and it was all settled. From there, the girls sat down with an electronic catalog and chose outfits for themselves as well as for me.

  These people had never invented bras. Except as outerwear. Bikini-type tops were worn in some settings, but not as underwear. Panties were commonly worn though. And there was a wide range of styles available. The tailor was surprised when “Units” didn’t stick to the standard “Unit Appropriate” section of the catalog but insisted that they would shop from the high-end feminine categories, including lingerie, nightwear, and skirts.

  The bulk of the time was spent with a uniform designer deciding colors, accents, ornaments, piping, and a logo. Apparently, a logo was something all of them considered absolutely essential. As if we’d be scandalously under-dressed without a big emblem of some kind either on the back or the breast. The girls made sketches and the designer made modifications, and there were discussions and arguments. I wasn’t sure how to describe the final result, but there was something about it that I found to be sexy in a way that I couldn’t put my finger on. There was some writing in the universal common language that said, “Eevona Space Command”. The designer had never heard of a planetary system called Eevona that was large enough to warrant its own space command but she accepted it as just never having heard of it, not something that we were making up ourselves and that no agency in the galaxy would actually recognize.

  It kind of made sense. We were uniq
ue. We had our own laws and answered to no one but ourselves. Yeah, I liked it. Eevona Space Command. Captain Jimmy Raskin of Eevona Space Command. A sovereign nation unto itself. One day, maybe I’d make Admiral. My parents would have been proud. I imagined the parade that would take place upon my promotion. It would be glorious. And the celebration that night would involve all four of the other citizens and we’d start the festivities with a shower and a massage and we’d finish in bed with at least three of them getting a long ride the new admiral’s lap rocket.

  When I started paying attention again, the girls were finishing up the final arrangements and getting ready to go.

  On the way out the door, Michelle held my arm in hers and said, “I’m so horny right now.”

  I looked at her sideways and she said, “That was sexy. Picking out all of those clothes, thinking about you taking them off of me, slipping your hand under my skirt and finding that my leggings are crotchless. Leading me down an out of the way alley and leaning me against a wall and satisfying my needs with your zipper down. It makes me hot.”

  Bailey took my other arm and said, “The tailor did question the need for openings and fasteners in so many areas. The tear-away crotches in the jumpsuits, especially. I think she caught on quickly and started to get a bit turned on by the possibilities herself.”

  I said, “Girls, how did you come up with all of that? If the tailor had never heard of it?”

  Michelle said, “You taught us to think like that.”

  I said, “Because we had sex?”

  Bailey said, “No. And damn it, I’m still sort of a virgin, but no, you keep emphasizing that form follows function. So, what are the functions of the clothing that we want? Well, public modesty…”

  Michelle interrupted and said, “Within reasonable bounds.”

  Bailey said, “Yeah, I guess minimally acceptable modesty in some cases. Being viewed as Units has it’s advantages in this case because we can get away with more because they don’t see us as persons. So, modesty, protection, recreation, and baiting.”
