The Green Lantern Stories
Part One: The Other Guardian
by Michael
Fifteen minutes after Aurora entered the sleek Arion spaceship she knew there was something very wrong with it. She thought her fist buried up to her elbow inside the engineering control console had a great deal to do with it!
Amidst the panicky cries of Betas screaming “field disruption” and “engine failure” Aurora scanned the crowd for the Alpha she knew was hunting her. She wrenched her arm from the sparking console, noticing many warning lights flashing across the machine’s surface. She smiled with satisfaction, but knew she would have to abandon ship just in case she really did do more than cripple the drive computers. An anti-matter explosion would likely destroy her despite her virtual invulnerability to heat and radiation.
Aurora flew rapidly out of the cavernous engine room. She heard the staccato rhythm of the sound of numerous escape pods as they left the ship. While she did not really believe her actions aboard this vessel would actually cause an anti-matter explosion, she was a little relieved to hear the Betas escaping with their lives intact. The Alphas, on the other hand...
It was on that thought that something slammed into Aurora’s left side with such violence that she punched through six interior walls before coming to a painful stop on her back!
Her head spinning with the shock, Aurora felt her throat gripped by a monstrously powerful hand. Her entire body was lifted roughly into the air by her neck. She found herself looking into the blazing red eyes of an Arion Alpha male! The rage he felt was plain upon his twisted face. Aurora thought she had never seen anyone so unthinkingly angry before!
His blinding hate made him phenomenally strong; Aurora could feel her windpipe denting as the Alpha shook her savagely before tossing her nearly the length of the entire ship.
She struggled to her feet, reeling from the change in blood pressure that resulted from her neck being squeezed with tens of thousands of pounds of force and then released. She vaguely heard the ship’s computer shrieking something incomprehensible but obviously important. The shrill electronic voice cut through her aching head like a vibrating knife, causing even more pain but clearing the cobwebs a little.
Searching with her enhanced vision for her opponent, she saw the male charging full speed toward her. Lacking time to properly brace herself, Aurora showed the Alpha her stronger-than-steel shoulder and closed her eyes for the impact.
Unexpectedly, instead of a fierce body blow, Aurora felt intense nausea and heard a ringing in her ears! Opening her eyes, she was puzzled to see the Arion seemingly affected the same way: he had stopped abruptly and was swaying on his feet.
The nausea was overwhelming. She fell heavily to her knees and watched with confusion as the walls around them seemed to melt and twist. A pale orange energy crackled over every surface, including herself. The air smelled strange and bitter. Her entire reality was coming apart!
She watched as the weird energies enveloped the Arion, causing his body to flow and separate. His liquid scream caused a panic reaction in Aurora. She blindly flew, her muscles flexing powerfully as she rocketed through walls and bulkheads. She had to get away; she didn’t care where!
In her weakened state her impact with the ship’s exterior bulkhead was just too much for Aurora to handle. While her body blasted through the thick armor, her consciousness failed to keep up. Her last sight before passing out was the Arion ship crumpling in on itself like a ball of tin foil.
* * *
Seth Abrons blazed across the sky of North America like a green comet. He had only just heard of the difficulty the Egyptian government was having getting much needed water to several of its southernmost cities. The drought there was terrible and people were dying from lack of water. Seth knew from experience that he could use his ring to help in any number of ways: dig irrigation trenches and canals; haul water by the ton to waiting tankers; even haul the tankers themselves over rough terrain if necessary.
After all, this was why Seth was given the ring those many years ago. He was the Earth’s Guardian—its sole protector.
A voice inside his head interrupted his train of thought.
“ALERT: ALIEN OBJECT RAPIDLY APPROACHING EARTH.”
What?? Where? How rapidly? Seth thought back to his ring. The glowing piece of jewelry had a surprisingly sophisticated computer built inside of it. There was nothing else like it, not on this planet, anyway!
“ROUGHLY 23,000 MILES PER HOUR. NOW ENTERING EARTH’S OUTER ATMOSPHERE WITHIN FIFTEEN LATERAL MILES OF THIS POSITION.”
Startled, Seth created a pair of binoculars using only a tiny fraction of his considerable willpower to shape the green energies flowing around him. Lifting the instrument to his eyes, he scanned the bright blue sky above him.
It did not take long; he quickly spotted a blue-white ball of fire as the object incandesced from the friction of the atmosphere.
Can you identify the object? he asked his ring.
“INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR PROPER ANALYSIS.”
Let’s see if I can’t take care of that, he thought. Seth redirected his energies to propel himself toward the brilliant fireball.
“OBJECT IS RAPIDLY LOSING VELOCITY, INDICATING A LOW MASS,” the ring informed Seth. “DATA SUGGESTS AN 87% CHANCE IMPACT SPEED WILL BE BELOW MACH 1.”
Best guess as to where it will hit, asked Seth.
“CALCULATING...” replied the ring.
During the pause, Seth noticed the fireball’s color shifting from blue-white to yellow as it cooled somewhat. He looked below him at the Rocky Mountains, peering through the eye slits of his armor. He always created a futuristic suit of body armor around him out of the energies of the ring, mostly to protect his very precious “normal” identity.
“PRECISE POINT OF IMPACT UNCERTAIN. 17% CHANCE OBJECT WILL STRIKE ON OR NEAR ZEBULON PIKE DAM.”
Seth whistled to himself as he realized what that could mean. A direct hit or even a near miss could be catastrophic for the people living below the dam. But something puzzled him.
Why is the impact point uncertain? he asked.
“OBJECT’S SHAPE AND CENTER OF MASS SHIFTS UNPREDICTABLY.”
Unpredictably? It’s not just tumbling? Have you identified the object yet?
“ANALYZING...OBJECT APPEARS TO BE A HUMANOID FEMALE.”
Seth nearly lost his ability to fly.
93"A...what?!” he cried out loud.
* * *
Aurora passed in and out of consciousness several times during her long fall to Earth. She felt immense heat all over her body. She was aware of her swollen breasts as they tried in vain to absorb the fantastic heat energy coursing over her form. Occasionally she attempted to catch herself from falling, not realizing there were no branches or flagpoles to be had for many miles yet. She truly had no idea what was happening to her; she felt hot and weightless, and everything was very bright. It occurred to her benumbed mind that she was still under attack near the ship, the Arion no doubt searing her with his heat vision! Try as she might, however, should could do little more than twitch and flail about, actions that were playing havoc with her trajectory!
* * *
“Good lord...how can she be alive?!” Seth exclaimed to himself. He had raced closer to the fireball after the ring’s revelation. The computer’s analysis certainly seemed to be correct, as there was indeed a humanoid shape at the center of the flames. Very unfortunately, the flames around it...her...were now a bright yellow. This was bad because the Master Guardians, the designers of the ring, included two significant limitations within its pattern.
The first was that the ring could never be used with murderous intent. It would shut down rather than be a deliberate instrument of death.
The second limitation involved the color yellow. The ring’s green energies were powerless to directly affect anything yellow. This prevented the individual Planet Guardians from becoming absolutely powerful, and therefore absolutely corrupt.
Which was fine in theory, but Seth needed a way to divert this female meteor away from the dam down below. And if he could help the alien herself, so much the better!
Concentrating his will, Seth created a jet turbine, giving it form from his ring’s tangible green light. Directing the turbine’s exhaust toward the woman, he set the engine’s blades spinning. A powerful wind hit the fireball and blasted it to one side.
“IMPACT IN APPROXIMATELY TWENTY SECONDS,” intoned the ring inside his head.
“Shit, I don’t think that’s going to be enough time!” said Seth aloud. “I won’t be able to save her, but I think the dam is safe...” Nevertheless, Seth redoubled his efforts at moving the plummeting female with nothing but directed air. “Maybe since she can withstand the heat without burning, she can take a 500 mile per hour impact without...”
BOOM
Unable to pull out of his own flight, Seth’s armored form glanced off the side of a mountain with enough force to cause a small avalanche. He just had time to see the humanoid drill almost straight down into nearly solid rock before he himself finally landed in a river.
* * *
Aurora awoke with her head spinning viciously. Her whole body ached and her breasts were huge and glowing red. She rested uncomfortably, ‘counting her bones’ as Chris liked to say after he got banged up for whatever reason. She gradually realized that she was back on Earth, probably after having fallen from orbit! In fact, she could now see that she was in a deep hole of her own making. Bright sunlight filtered down to her, illuminating her surroundings, such as they were.
Fighting against her dizziness, she tried to fly out of the hole but quickly settled on climbing out when she found she could not control her muscles enough for directed flight.
Her breasts ached terribly. They were so big they interfered with climbing, her painfully stiff nipples making twin furrows in the rock face. About half-way up the tube she stopped to use one hand to massage her irritated tits. She was surprised to find that even her hand could not make a dent in her taut globes. In fact, trying brought tears to her eyes!
She tried flying again. This time she lifted into the air effortlessly, but her damned dizziness caused her to hit the side of the rock on her way out, causing hundreds of pounds of dirt and rock to erupt into the air along with her body. She fell indelicately to the ground, the shallow snow around her hissing violently in protest to her superheated skin.
What little snow and ice there was felt deliciously cool against her body, and she rolled around in relief, careful not to put too much pressure against her distended breasts.
“How did you survive that fall?”
Shocked at the nearness of the strange voice, Aurora stood up too quickly, only to fall against a pine tree as her head spun.
Blinking furiously to clear her head, Aurora saw what looked like an armored alien reaching out to grab her!
Neither knowing nor caring when the Arions started wearing combat armor, Aurora kicked out. The blow against the armor was so strong snow fell from tree branches as far as fifty yards away! The armored figure flew like a bullet for thirty yards before smashing into a large fir, nearly toppling it!
* * *
The mighty blow caught Seth almost completely off guard. He groaned in pain as he slowly picked himself up off the cold ground. This was the other reason he always kept his armor up when he was in his role as Earth’s Guardian! If his body had not been protected..! The kick from this strange woman would have disemboweled him instantly.
Who was this woman? She was remarkably attractive, although obviously he was not catching her at her best. Her golden-yellow hair was in disarray, she had bruises all over her nude body, and she looked like she was fighting one hell of a headache.
Suddenly, she moved faster than he could track with his eyes! She grabbed him by the throat, lifting him over her head as if she were merely raising her hand. He felt his armor weakening, and poured more of his will into reinforcing it. This woman was strong! His armor could withstand tank shells if he were ready for it, but he actually had to concentrate to maintain its integrity!
Plus, her muscles were fantastic! He saw her arm almost literally explode with the most defined musculature he had ever seen!
“This is for strangling me earlier!” she growled, throwing him overhand.
He sailed for nearly a half-mile before colliding with the ground and rolling for twenty yards through brush and saplings.
Knocked unconscious for a split second, his armor flickered and nearly dissolved before he had the presence of mind to put it back up.
And none too soon, for the alien woman had the ability to fly, too! She dropped down to where he lay and seized the front of his armor. Reflexively, he lashed out with ring-augmented strength to land a blow against one of her basketball-sized breasts!
Shrieking in tremendous pain, the alien woman let Seth drop to his feet while clutching her left breast in agony. Flexing his sore hand, Seth quickly backed away to regain his bearings.
What kind of alien is she?! he frantically inquired of his ring’s computer.
“SHE DOES NOT MATCH ANY OF THE 13,725 SPECIES RECORDED IN THIS GALAXY,” replied the ring.
You’re kidding! What could explain that?
“SHE COULD BE AN ARTIFICIAL CONSTRUCT; SHE COULD BE FROM ANOTHER GALAXY; SHE COULD BE FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION; SHE COULD...”
Wait, interrupted Seth mentally. Another dimension? That would cause all sorts of strange readings.. Are you getting anything unusual about her energy emanations?
“SCANNING...AFFIRMATIVE. READING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF EPSILON RADIATION, INDICATIVE OF INEFFICIENT DIMENSIONAL TRAVEL. GREATEST CONCENTRATION LOCATED IN ALIEN’S MAMMARY GLANDS.”
That’s...weird...
“NEGATIVE. ALIEN’S MAMMARIES SEEM TO BE ORGANS OF ENERGY STORAGE.”
“There you are!” said the woman triumphantly as she floated above Seth. “That really hurt, you Arion bastard!”
Seth saw the woman’s remarkable blue eyes turn abruptly violet. Beams of light lanced from the alien and struck Seth with such force his knees gave way and he was shoved to the ground.
Again, Seth retreated from the onslaught. He flew blindly away from the intense heat and pressure, soaring into the air at half the speed of sound.
“Why..why is she attacking me?” Seth panted aloud. “She seems to be in pain...hey!” He snapped his fingers. “Isn’t Epsilon radiation highly toxic?”
“AFFIRMATIVE. HOWEVER, THIS ALIEN EXHIBITS EXTREME RESISTANCE TO DAMAGE. THIS INVULNERABILITY LIKELY EXTENDS TO RADIATION OF MANY TYPES.”
“Yeah, but still...if she’s not used to it...” Seth checked for his opponent. He was startled to see her on the ground holding her head in her hands rather than streaking up into the air in pursuit.
Seth stopped his retreat, hovering over the battleground several miles up.
“How,” he asked his ring, “could I remove that energy from her?”
“SCANS INDICATE ENERGY HAS CONDENSED INTO A SEMI-FLUID STATE IN THE ALIEN’S MAMMARIES. REMOVAL OF EXCESS EPSILON ENERGY MAY BE POSSIBLE THROUGH ALIEN’S NIPPLES.”
Seth felt his eyebrows rising at hearing his ring’s assessment. And not just his eyebrows...
* * *
Aurora felt very ill. Both her head and her grossly full breasts hurt in a way like they never have before. Usually by now her breasts would have shrunk a little with all the energy she was expending, but they were as abnormally swollen as before. And her head..! What was happening to her?
She tried to think about the Arion. His armor gave him the ability to fly. That, and it probably afford him some protection, too. She noticed, however, that his eyes were just barely exposed in his helmet. If she could think past this incessant pain, perhaps she could focus her heat vision like a razor and pierce her way past the armor’s eye slits. That should give the Arion something to worry about!
Fighting the vertigo in her head, Aurora stood up and scanned the skies above for her enemy. She was not surprised to see him flying toward her, his armor a streak of green fire.
Waiting until she could see the whites of his eyes, her opponent landed about ten yards away, directly in front of her.
“I’m just trying to help you!” said the Arion, probably to put her off her guard. Suddenly, two weird devices seemed to materialize out of thin air in front of her! Looking like huge green suction cups attached to a hose, the twin devices flashed forward and latched themselves firmly onto a breast each!
Instantly Aurora felt a tremendous pressure created by the cups. Her chest seemed to explode in raw agony! She had to stop this now!
Desperately focusing her heat vision, she let fly with a powerful, narrow blast intended to burn the Arion’s eyes out of his skull!
* * *
Seth instantly knew what the violet flash of the alien woman’s eyes meant from painful experience. As quick as thought, his infrequently used Guardian training sharpening his mental reflexes, Seth created a green mirror in front of him to reflect the blast he knew was coming. He did not have time to aim it, though, as the gorgeous woman’s attack flashed from her head and onto the impromptu mirror. Seth grunted as the effort taxed his willpower.
Seth heard the woman cry out as the twin beams reflected back onto her! Dropping his shield, he saw that the beams had raked across her solid abdomen downward into her pubes! Most noticeably, the hyper-focused heat vision had left her completely bare of the golden hair that used to cover her vulva.
Seth almost lost his concentration, but he redoubled his efforts to remove the poisonous energy from the beautiful woman’s mammoth breasts.
* * *
Aurora dropped to her knees in helpless anguish. She felt the fluid that was her energy store starting to trickle from her tits. How was the Arion doing this? Why could she not concentrate? What was wrong with her?!
Amazingly, however, the agony diminished as more of the burning fluid was “suckled” from her, until she could feel a budding sense of pleasure starting deep within her breasts! The fluid was gushing now from her softening tits, her nipples still as hard as marble and now vibrating slightly.
Aurora gripped the hoses that were removing the liquid with a fierce strength as her hips bucked uncontrollably. This was fantastic! A huge wave of relief radiated from her abused chest as the suction continued unabated. Her head cleared; the world came sharply into focus again. She realized that whatever energy she had absorbed into her had been making her terribly sick. Now that it was leaving her body, her super metabolism could begin healing the rest of her contaminated body.
Waves of orgasmic pleasure shook her to her core. She felt so good! Why was the Arion helping her like this?
And then it occurred to her—this wasn’t the Arion! She saw the Arion virtually melt in front of her as those poisonous energies covered him head to toe.
She looked and saw the green armored man in a new light. He really was trying to help her!
“Make me come!” she shouted to him.
He appeared to start, probably wondering what she was attempting to pull.
“Make me come!” she repeated. “Make me orgasm as much as you can! It will help my body get rid of the bad energy! I mean it! Please!”
He seemed to hesitate. It was an unusual request from someone who was trying to smash you into the earth only minutes ago! Aurora chuckled as she thought of his confusion, but she stopped abruptly as another wave of pleasure coursed through her.
“Please!” she begged, fantastically horny.
That did it! She felt something clamp onto her clit (how does he do that?!) with thousands of pounds of force! It immediately started to vibrate as if it were nuclear powered...if her clit had been merely made of carbon steel the vibrations would have torn it apart. She felt her clitoris expanding violently under the tremendous stimulation.
She screamed in uncontrollable orgasm! She felt her vagina spastically trying to grip emptiness and she wished fervently for something to fill it. However, she couldn’t do anything but scream and flail about as a dozen of rapid fire orgasms tore through her helpless body! Her neck bent backward of its own accord as her eyes stared sightlessly into the sun. Her tan skin flushed pink as her body excised the remains of the toxic radiation from her system.
It was twelve minutes and over seventy mind shattering orgasms later when Aurora decided she could not handle all this pleasure just now and still remain sane! However, as she tried to tell the green man to stop the incredible stimulation she found that she could not get her muscles to respond to anything but the orgasms that were still racing through her!
Desperately, she tried to will her hands to let go of the hoses that were still sucking away at her tits. She felt another orgasm building between her legs and labored to tell the armored man to stop before it crashed down upon her! She felt her will weakening as the tension in her vulva mounted, her blood rushing yet again into her tissues, her vagina vibrating so fiercely she thought she could actually hear it over the roar of the green clitoral machine!
She felt her lips form the word ‘stop’ but could not hear anything but a whimper from her throat as the uncontrollable orgasm which had been helplessly building inside her climaxed, tossing her powerful body about, throwing dirt and grass into the air as she arched and flexed unstoppably.
A minute later she came down from her latest climax only to feel another one building! It’s now or never she thought frantically.
She gathered the shreds of her tattered will together for one last superhuman effort against her Veloran libido.
“Stop...” she said weakly. “N-no more...”
As if flicking off a light switch the stimulation ceased and the devices attached to her dissolved. Her body still twitched with one last feeble orgasm, as if from habit, then the contractions subsided and she fell blissfully asleep.
* * *
Seth, too, nearly passed out from the effort. He had poured more energy into stimulating that fantastic woman than he had used airlifting food into Rwanda! His penis ached incredibly as he was powerfully aroused by what the alien woman had gone through.
Seth wearily dropped to his knees. Seeing that the woman was out cold he crawled a few feet away and let his armor finally disappear. He only wore black stretch briefs underneath and they were living up to their name just now! He freed his glistening cock from his briefs and gasped as he remembered the muscles burgeoning from the woman as she came over and over. He had never seen anyone look as muscular as she did! She somehow managed to embody five or six of his fondest sexual fantasies all at once! It was too much to think about; in his greatly stimulated state he could not help but come almost as soon as he started stroking himself. His semen shot four feet into the air and he cried out with the intensity of his orgasm. He fell to the earth exhausted both physically and mentally.
He awoke later to the insistent voice of his ring inside his head.
“WARNING...WARNING...THE ALIEN HAS AWAKENED AND IS MOVING IN THIS DIRECTION.”
Seth knew his ring understood how protective he was of his identity. Plus, he was still unsure of the motives of this striking woman. He hastened to raise his armor up; in a flash it was covering his body.
He stood just as he saw her brilliant golden hair topping the small rise he was on. She smiled a dazzling smile as she saw him.
“Oh, good. I’d hoped you hadn’t run off,”she said in a delightful alto very different from the pained voice she was forced to use during her illness. She walked directly toward him and stopped three feet away. “I never apologized for attacking you. I haven’t been myself lately, I think.”
Seth looked up into her sparkling blue eyes, eyes the color of cobalt. She stood slightly taller than him even though his armor added a couple of inches to his normal height.
Her breasts pointed directly at him. They were significantly smaller than before but still very full and firm looking; far larger and firmer than the average Earth woman’s breasts, to be sure! To his surprise and wonder there existed no trace of any mark or injury upon her skin. She really had healed quickly! The only evidence of her ordeal was a perfectly bald pussy.
She followed his eyes down to her crotch and smiled.
“I haven’t looked like that down there since I was a young girl!” She looked back up at him, grinning.
He felt his heart skip as he floated on that stunning smile.
“Are you alright?” he asked.
“Yes, thanks to you. I don’t know who you are or how you did those things you did...are you O.K.? I was pretty rough with you.”
Seth felt himself blushing for no apparent reason. “Nothing that won’t heal. But you sure are strong...uh...”
“Aurora. Fairchild to my friends. And after what we’ve been through I’d like to think of you as a friend if that’s O.K. with you.” She stuck her hand out formally.
Seth returned the shake, still slightly wary. “I’m the Guardian,” he said.
“The guardian of what?” asked Aurora, frowning a little.
“Of Earth.” There was a pause. “This planet,” he continued.
“A guardian or the guardian?” she asked.
“The Guardian,” Seth replied.
“Since when?” Aurora asked a little tersely. She had never heard of this guy before!
“Since about seven Earth years ago. What dimension do you come from?”
Aurora thought the question was rather flippant until she understood he was serious!
“What dimension...” she repeated softly. Could it have been possible? Did the Arion ship’s drives malfunction in such a way as to punch her through some sort of dimensional barrier? Where was she, anyway?
She suddenly knew what she had to do.
“Even if this is Earth, I still don’t know where I am. Can you guide me to Hawaii?” she asked.
“Well...sure, I suppose.” It was dawning on Seth that this woman, this ‘Fairchild’, lived on an alternate Earth from his own! No wonder she was confused! Seth wondered how she arrived here.
Aurora looked down at her nude form.
“Ah...I hate to impose, but is it within your power to whip me up some clothes to wear? If the superheroes in this dimension are wearing full body armor maybe a nude woman would be a bit much for the public, hmmm?”
Seth smiled beneath his helmet. “Sure, Fairchild. Can do.”
Seth concentrated and in a split second Aurora found herself wearing a one-piece shiny green outfit that showed more than a little hip. Her bosom was pushed gently upwards, her breasts threatening to overflow the top.
“I like your tastes, ‘Guardian’,” she grinned playfully. “This will do fine.”
Seth was relived as he was not quite sure just how she would accept what he had conjured up. He felt himself getting hard again. God, he sure could appreciate a woman with that kind of libido!
“Lead the way!” Aurora said, waving her hand upwards.
* * *
As they flew high in the atmosphere the Guardian had surrounded both of them with a pale green field of energy that enabled them to talk to each other despite the supersonic winds.
Aurora was slightly shocked to learn from this mysterious ‘Guardian’ that this Earth had no other super-powered beings of any sort! Apparently on rare occasions aliens had stumbled upon the tiny blue planet, either just by accident or with intent to enslave. It was to defend Earth against these unwelcome influences that the Guardian was assigned here.
“What do you do in the meantime, you know, between aliens?” Aurora asked.
“I help people survive accidents and natural disasters,” he replied.
“Ah, so you dig people out from earthquakes and rescue terrorist victims, that sort of thing?”
“Yes on the first one, no on the second,” the Guardian said. “I do nothing that interferes with the consequences of their own deliberate actions.”
Aurora did not quite understand. “I don’t get it. You mean if a terrorist had a nuclear bomb planted in a major city, and you knew where it was, you would do nothing to stop it?”
“That is correct,” said the Guardian, sounding matter-of-fact.
“How could you do that? How could you live with yourself if millions of people died because you didn’t act?”
The Guardian’s voice sounded weary. “It is a tough row to hoe. But if I deactivate the bomb, the cultures of Earth would never learn from their actions; they wouldn’t see the consequences of nuclear weapons. If I interfere, most people wouldn’t even believe there was a bomb, not in their hearts. I would save a million lives, and that is a noble thing. But the peoples of Earth would expect me to save them from any irresponsible or evil action they would care to do. And I can’t guarantee I could be there for them, and, more importantly, they would never learn.”
Aurora thought about this. “I don’t think I could do that. Peoples’ lives are too precious to me,” she said quietly.
“About half the planet thinks the same way, believe me. I have been vilified by the presses of many nations. I have been shot at, accused of murder by inaction, and I have a place in the conspiracy theories of every nut out there.”
“But,” he continued pointedly, looking at her, “I save thousands of lives a year and give the people of this planet the freedom to choose their own destiny. Not one of them down there can say the same.”
The rest of the flight continued silently. Aurora observed his armored figure as she flew slightly behind him and to his side. He kept his left arm extended in front of him as he flew, and the green energy that enveloped him formed a kind of comet’s tail that trailed a short distance behind. She wished she could see what he really looked like underneath all that hard covering. He seemed very serious about keeping his identity secret, and she respected his privacy enough not to try to see through his armor with her super vision. After what he just told her, it was no wonder he was sensitive about his identity.
Aurora was always invulnerable. She understood now that there was a normal human male beneath the armor, armor that had to come off occasionally. She knew that some people back on her Earth did not believe the fact that she only wanted to save the planet from aliens who very much desired to destroy it. She wondered if she could accept the stress of being a normal human part of the time. She would definitely keep her ‘civilian’ identity a far tighter secret!
Breaking her reverie, the Guardian pointed down to a series of large islands like emeralds in a sapphire sea. The Hawaiian islands! Aurora started down when she stopped abruptly. Something was wrong.
“These aren’t the Hawaiian islands!” she called.
“Yes, they are, Fairchild.” said the Guardian with a strange edge to his voice.
Aurora looked again. What was wrong with this picture? What was...
Aurora gave a gasp. “Wait a minute...Hawaii, Oahu, Maui, Kauai...where’s Molokai?! Guardian, where is the island of Molokai??”
In a near monotone, struggling with his voice, the Guardian looked to where she was pointing and said, “Gone. It was destroyed by a criminal Modon warrior about eight years ago in an attempt to hide from his species. It was this action that inspired the Master Guardians to recruit a native Earth person to become the planet’s Guardian. That would be me.” His voice broke suddenly, overcome with an old pain. “400,000 people died in the shockwave that resulted from his mad attack. My family was among them. I guess...I guess the Masters knew what they were doing when they asked me, huh?”
Aurora saw the Guardian stare straight at the islands far below, then turn away in shame as if she could see the tears streaming down his face behind his armor.
It was only then that Aurora truly accepted that she was no longer on the Earth she knew. She had wanted to go to Hawaii to visit her home, or what was in place of it. But the part of her that denied the Guardian’s ‘dimensional travel’ story died when she let her eyes travel over the broken chain of this Earth’s Hawaiian islands.
Aurora knew from missing family. She still occasionally felt the pain knowing that she would not see her father again. She floated over to the silent armored man and wrapped her right arm gently around his waist.
“Come on,” she whispered. “Let’s find me a way home.”
* * *
Several hours later, the sun was setting behind the mountainous horizon in a riot of rich oranges and reds. Seth was sitting next to Fairchild on top of the peak she had crashed next to, watching the sunset and talking quietly to each other.
They had been discussing the circumstances behind her arrival in this dimension and had come to the same conclusion: the ship had forced itself through the normally strong barrier that separated the dimensions from each other. The ship obviously was not built to withstand that, and neither were Arions.
“Could you get me past that barrier unharmed?” Fairchild had asked him.
Seth had shaken his head slightly. “Typically, no. On the other hand, it is probably so weak there after your forced entry that I may just be able to open it again.”
But now, the conversation had taken a gentler turn. As if awed before the grand beauty of Nature, she and Seth spoke in hushed voices about many things. As the stars came out, they spoke of each other’s families and friends; they spoke of death and what it meant to them; about the horror of the Arions; about the serenity of the mountains around them.
Fairchild placed her slim hand upon Seth’s breastplate and gently pressed until he was laying down in the snow. Seth’s breathing quickened, a fact he knew was not lost on her. Seth saw her remarkable blue eyes stare deeply into his chocolate brown ones, drinking carefully from his soul. Seth caused Fairchild’s green one-piece to contract, as if hugging her all over.
She smiled in pleasure, but did not let him up.
“Guardian,” she breathed softly, “I know you will not let me see you in the flesh. But please, let me touch you.” She shook her fine hair until it was spilling over his face. In that beautiful perfumed darkness he saw her eyes dance with light. His heart beat wildly in his chest and he had trouble swallowing. She was the most gorgeous, intoxicating woman he had ever known!
Slowly, almost reluctantly, Fairchild’s hand was allowed to sink through his armor until it lay upon his smooth warm chest. He could not believe this was happening—he never had let anyone do this in seven years! A small, desperate part of his mind screamed that if she wanted to kill him, all she had to do was press effortlessly downward and it was all over! Maybe this was a trap!
But the fear of this frighteningly powerful woman mixed potently with his growing arousal, creating such an incredible excitement within him that he was shaking uncontrollably!
He could easily see the effect he was having on her, too! Her eyelids fluttered with arousal and a light sheen of sweat caught the light of the half-moon rising in the sky as she sat up, her hand still on his chest. She straddled him across his waist. Only her hand was allowed to enter past his defenses right now, but it was enough. She found his tiny, tight nipples and firmly squeezed them, making him gasp. Seth responded by causing her ‘borrowed’ suit to have hundreds of tiny but strong fingers touch her on her skin, including her dripping labia and steel-hard nipples.
Fairchild moaned uninhibitedly, her mouth parting. Seth poured more power into her suit, causing it to contract with tons of pressure, particularly around her amazing breasts. She nearly yelled with the sensation, her eyes closing and her brow furrowing with the pleasure.
Seth suddenly released her from her pleasure suit. It evaporated into nothingness, causing her compressed body to audibly ‘snap’ back into shape.
Momentarily surprised, Fairchild leaned forward to nuzzle his armor.
“You are really good at that, “ she said huskily.
“Fairchild, you are so powerful and so horny I don’t think I could do anything that wouldn’t arouse you!” Seth breathed back, trembling.
She squirmed in response, forcing Seth into the earth a bit! “I want you to enter me,” she said.
Seth’s mind reeled. He wanted that, too!
“Uh...” he panted, “there might be a problem with that, Fairchild. Even if I blindfolded you with my energy, I’m pretty sure your body would crush me flat in a second once you orgasmed. Remember, I saw how you lost control earlier today!”
“Really? You think I would do that to you?” she teased as she sat up again. She then flexed her upper body until the most amazing muscles grew out of her!
Seth nearly fainted! What a woman!!
She continued to flex, catching the moonlight on all her new surfaces. “Well, you’re the one with the great sexual imagination. You figure something out, and soon!” she said.
It didn’t take him long! Seth allowed himself to reach past his armor and unlimber his throbbing penis from his black stretch underwear. He then extended his armor to form a hollow phallus down between his legs. He slipped his full length inside of it.
Fairchild looked down at him with delight. She touched the glassy hardness of his sheathed cock.
“But will you feel anything?” she asked, concerned.
“Ohhhh, yesss...” Seth breathed, allowing the armor to transmit the sensations her hand was creating.
This was what she had been waiting for, it seemed! She immediately shifted position and lowered her naked, hairless vulva over his enhanced erection. Seth got a fairly close-up look at the largest, most perfectly-shaped clit he had ever seen!
He groaned aloud as he felt himself enclosed by the tightest vagina on the planet. It was so constricted that she had trouble lowering herself, despite the copious fluid she was producing. Seth made the sheath even smoother to help her. With a yelp from both of them, she dropped down onto him suddenly! He was fully encased!
“Ohhhh...” Fairchild moaned. “That’s gooood...”
“Here,” Seth panted, “let me make it better.”
His shaft was instantly covered with barely flexible spikes and knobs. The shaking woman on top of him nearly cried tears of rapture as she felt her invulnerable vagina rubbed from within.
She looked to Seth as if she came to some sort of decision just then. She suddenly jumped up and down on him with abandon, crying out her joy! She had decided that her full power was not going to hurt him, thought Seth. He had not considered that. She must be one frustrated woman. No wonder she was so horny!
After that, Seth barely held onto coherent thought as the pleasure she was giving him boiled in his body. She was so powerful, he doubted he could stop her now if he tried! That thought almost sent him over the edge, so he decreased the amount of sensation he let the armor transmit to his cock.
He grabbed onto her bouncing tits with his incredibly strong armored hands and squeezed. At the same time he expanded the size of the sheath inside her, fighting against her monumentally strong vaginal walls.
He saw her eyes roll back into her head as she climaxed forcefully! Impossibly, he felt her orgasm for what must have been ten solid minutes! He wondered almost idly if he could keep up the energy necessary to pleasure this remarkable female.
He let go of her staggeringly firm tits and concentrated his nearly inhuman will into expanding his sheath even further. He felt the encasement balloon (without any loss of sensation to him) to the point where Fairchild was riding vigorously on something nearly the length of a baseball bat and half again as thick! He could expand himself no further, having reached his limits without seeming to reach hers. Still, it was clear she had lost all semblance of control, especially as he began to vibrate his armor against her impossibly hard clitoris!
He saw that she was a helpless passenger to her enormous libido right now, ironic considering she was burying him in the mountain face with just the strength of her wild hips!
Seth extended energy past her cervix and into her uterus, pressing her on the inside of her convulsing womb. She shrieked her passion, causing a rockslide nearby and waking up campers in a ten-mile radius! She actually fainted just as Seth uncontrollably reached the most mind blowing climax of his life!
The sun was only a half-hour away from rising as they awoke more or less simultaneously from sleep. Seth had snuggled closely behind Fairchild for the considerable warmth she was radiating, and also to keep her from seeing him as his armor dropped away in his sleep.
Now, just as she was turning over, he created his armor out of thin air, covering his nearly naked body and warming his freezing backside.
Fairchild looked up and smiled tenderly at him.
“Come on, young lady,” Seth gently teased, “let’s get you home before your planet worries about you.”
Seth took her hand and flew straight into the air, brushing past the pine tree branches and, eventually, the very clouds.
As they soared into the crystal blue skies of the middle atmosphere, Seth could feel his heart beginning to break. And looking at the glorious woman gliding so effortlessly next to him, he felt both pleased and grieved that she seemed to feel the same way.
“ALERT...ALERT...DIMENSIONAL RIFT 1,000 MILES AHEAD,” interrupted his ring inside his head.
Startled, Seth gazed ahead of him with improvised binoculars. Indeed, a pale orange energy field about 400 yards long and one-third that wide undulated in space like a neon orchid under water. Seth mused about what the people on Earth were thinking about that! If they have even noticed, yet.
Seth spread a field of energy around the two of them so they could talk.
“There it is! I’ll bet that’s what you came through, just up ahead.”
Fairchild squinted. “Oh, yes, that was the color of the energy that affected me so badly.” She seemed to shiver with the memories.
“Well, not to worry, I’ll widen the rift so you won’t have to come in contact with it again,” Seth said. I hope, he continued silently.
“Thank you,” she said tenderly, her eyes bright.
They continued silently, but hand in hand, for the remainder of the trip. When they arrived, neither wanted to make the first move.
“Guardian...” began Fairchild, softly.
“Shhh...” he answered, putting a finger to her ruby lips. He felt his heart beating furiously. “Seth. My..my name is Seth. Seth Abrons. Call me Seth, please, Fairchild.”
Fairchild’s face lit up with emotion. She seemed to dim the stars themselves.
“Thank you...Seth.”
His named flowed from her tongue to his ears and made him shiver.
“I...we’d better get you home...”
Fairchild nodded reluctantly, eyes glistening.
“There are Arions to demolish, y’know,” Seth continued, looking into her face.
She smiled despite herself. “Yeah,” she said, “damn them.”
They gazed at each other for a few more precious seconds. Then Seth raised his left hand at the shimmering rift and let loose with an awesome beam of intense green energy. The beam created an opening in the pale orange rift just wide enough to allow a Veloran-sized object to slip through.
Fairchild turned and made her way toward the hole. She turned around when she heard Seth cry out.
“Fairchild!”
She looked at him. With a gasp, she saw that his armor had become transparent. He was shaking from emotion as he allowed her to see him for the first time. Seth almost felt her eyes wash over his exposed body as she drank in every detail, memorizing his features. Tears floated liberally into space from her sad eyes, where they boiled away once they reached past his protective envelope.
“Oh, Seth...” she cried as she literally flew into his arms, “...thank you, thank you for everything. I shall never forget you.”
“Nor I, you, lovely Fairchild,” Seth croaked. He wiped her tears away just as he felt his flowing, too.
They explored each other’s faces and bodies with their eyes for a minute longer. Then, after touching her forehead to his, she turned and flew into the rift without looking back.
Seth followed her for a short distance, watching her disappear.
Suddenly, the entire rift flared in a blaze of light! Radiation bathed his protected body and he felt space warping around him!
“WARNING...WARNING...” his ring began, but he missed the rest of it as he was bodily sucked into the maw of the rift! What was happening?!
Space closed with a tangible ‘THUMP’ as the rift sealed itself behind him!
THE END?
