Chapter 53

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Her eyes popped open and she immediately sat up.  Almost at once the weight of an intense pain that dropped onto her head and suddenly her body felt like it was literally on fire.

She turned to see Lewis sleeping peacefully beside her.  He grumbled and rolled over on his side causing the thin sheet that covered him to fall gracelessly to the floor.   She beheld the full nude sight of him and the pain erupted in her brain.  She jumped off of the bed and onto shaky feet.  She fell with a loud crashing sound and gritted her teeth with the sudden urge to tear off her aching, itching skin.  Through tight lips she called for Nathanial.

No sooner had she whispered his name did the door of the room slowly open. Nathaniel stood in the doorway and stared down at her smiling slyly. He bent down and took her quivering form in his arms.

“Good morning Captain. How was your first time?"

*******************************************

“You came here not knowing where she was?”

The mermaid shrugged. In borrowed clothes her many children ran around the busy morning streets, laughing and playing as teenagers sometimes do.

“Onyx isn’t that hard to find you know. She stands out in the crowd.”

The Second turned to see his Mistress carried in something only similar to a coffin, whose pallbearers were the royal guards who had also gained a human form.

They walked with a systematic silence and never strayed too far from their Queen.

“Why does she sleep?”

“She has a spell cast on her.”

“Is it powerful?”

“Yes very.”

They walked in silence and He spotted the Inn.

“Come, your majesty. This is the place.”

“Call me Assyria.”

“Assyria then.”

She turned to her rambunctious seed and whistled. They all froze in their various positions.

“Yes mother?”

They all asked in unison.

“Guess what! I know where the Captain is.”

All of their pretty faces lit up with sudden excitement. It was obvious they wanted to storm the poor in and play with the Captain, but their nerves were halted as they waited for their mother’s approval.

“Go ahead.”

They all erupted with joy and ran to the Inn forcing the door open and dispensing their great multitude inside.

The Second stared in wonder.

“What good kids…”

“I know.”

*************************************************

The door to the designated sick bay (Nathanial and Babylon’s room) was thrown open and a dark haired boy with sea-blue eyes smiled joyfully as he caught sight of the newly “cured” Captain who had just finished putting on one of Nathanial’s shirts.

“I found her!”

The youth ran inside and threw his arms around her waist.  Moments later ten more kids stumbled in and practically pounced on the Captain who was tackled onto the floor.  In the intense confusion she had been kissed and tugged and snuggled all over and the insanity only stopped when a sharp whistle erupted into the tiny room and all of the children dispersed, running out of the room to wreak havoc on the rest of the inhabitants of the inn.  

“Onyx!”

Before she could even stand up yet another child, a much bigger child, knocked her onto the floor.

“Assyria, you’re hurting me.”

“Oh. Sorry.”

She was about to get off of her but halted. Assyria took in the strange look of her friend and frowned.

“What did you do?”

“What?”

There was a strange glow about Onyx, and they young woman seemed to be more seductive than ever. Without thinking Assyria smelled the hollow of Onyx’s neck.  She gasped and practically jumped up from the floor.

“Onyx...You smell like a man!”

It was at that moment that an ear splitting scream erupted from a room down the hall.

********************************************

Minerva was considered the twelfth child, even though all of them were born the exact same time, because she was the runt of the litter. She was the smallest of all her brothers and sisters; however she was the only one who looked exactly like her mother. This being said, it wasn’t surprising to anyone that she developed her mother’s strange liking for hair and beautiful people; Men especially.

That being said, the fair haired youth somehow found her way into the room where Drake was.

She hadn’t planned on entering, seeing that she was joining the search for the lovely Captain, but she had caught a glimpse of his face and, like her mother would have, found him instantly attractive. She crept into the room, not even bothering to close the door, and knelt on her knees at his bed side.

“Wow…”

She touched the dark curls of his hair and marveled at their silky feel. Next she placed curious fingers onto his cheek and smoothed them over his face, as if she were constructing it herself.  She wondered if he was human, because her mother had told her that humans could never be so pretty.

There was only way to find out.

She cautiously, and with the curious fingers of youth, she drew back the full of his top lip to expose the pointed teeth she had hoped to see.

All would’ve continued smoothly had he not woken up.

His eyes opened and when he suddenly bolted up, the child was terrified at his size. She fell back onto her butt and screamed bloody murder.

Ah, the wonders of youth.

Okay I have been dying to randomly put this in here somewhere because a buddy of mine kept saying it when I was writing this.

“Oh my gosh, they’ve made the beast with two backs!”

Lol, funny.
