Living The Dream, Malissa's Academy 34, Reunion free porn video

LTD, Malissa's Academy,34 Reunion The scientist types were nervous; it had been a few months since the IGP raid on the secret underground Laboratories. Sure, they were gone now, but from time to time elements from the Free Alpha Alliance come through the area on patrol looking for people who needed their help. One such patrol followed by one of their big support vehicles had passed within a few blocks yesterday making a sweep down the wider streets on each side handing out food packets to people. Did they know about this lab here in the basement, hidden away with the no longer used Sanitarium overhead as a cover? They had a staff meeting this morning. Was it worth it, the research we were doing for the government, to face the possibility of life imprisonment at some Intergalactic Prison? Especially now that all those Government types had just picked up and left. Only communicating through the computer and brief phone calls from gods only knew where. It only took them a few minutes to reach a decision, they would give a homeless man the keys and pay him to release everyone once they were all gone. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Joanna Curry didn't know for sure what was going on in the world around her. She knew that she'd been locked up for the last twelve years. But she didn't understand why, let alone how the man she'd loved could do that to her. She'd not seen her son, Starshine since he was five years old. But by the Great Spirit she was determined to find him. She needed a place to start looking, and that place was St Louis, Missouri, the last place they'd lived before Jonathan abandoned her to the government scientists. For twelve years she'd been held in that horrible place, subjected to tests and examinations. Psychoanalyzed, always they wanted to know what animal she could change into. But they were wrong, she didn't change into any animals, she couldn't, she just carried the Gene. She almost admitted to them that she'd shifted as a child when her parents were killed in front of her on a Chicago street. That she'd been hunted for weeks before shifting back, and then never again had she let the wolf out. It had taken a great deal of willpower to keep her locked away, hidden from everyone these last twelve years. She'd seen what they did to the other poor souls that shifted. Then last week some homeless people had come through and just opened the doors letting everyone out. It took her a while to finally realize that she wasn't being followed. She still had the picture of Starshine taken at his fifth birthday, the only thing they had allowed her to keep after discovering that she had it a few years ago. It was old, faded and cracked in places, but you could still see the details if you looked hard enough. Slowly she made her way to the river that divided the new territory of the Seven Nations. She wasn't sure what answers to give the people checking everyone who was crossing the bridge. But she didn't have any ID, no proof of who she really was. She started to turn away after giving her name and not having any proof. She was really surprised that she hadn't been grabbed for not having ID. "Roper, bring her to me. It seems I remember another Curry who passed through here last year," said someone from inside the big truck parked beside the bridge. Still unsure she followed the man Roper up the little side ramp into the truck. Then stopped in stunned shock. There were cat and wolf people everywhere. Then one stepped up in front of her, "Joanna Curry? Please follow me." he led her toward a bank of computer monitors. "Easy Nights, please search for Curry, Star something. She was through her last fall," he said. The monitor directly in front of her began to run through pictures at a blinding speed as the Wolf man held a chair for her to sit down. "My son, Starshine is who I'm looking for," she told him as he seemed to be studying her. "You look thirsty could I get you something to drink?" and he offered her, her choice of water or coffee. She accepted a bottle of cold water taking her first drink as the images began to rapidly slow down. Suddenly an image stopped. "Curry, Starlight, Wolf Furry Shifter, Transgendered Female. Seven Nations Destination, Spirit Lake, South Dakota," announced the mechanical voice from the computer. She was staring at the eyes of the pretty girl in the picture when the next image popped up beside it of the teenage wolf Shifter in his human form. As this set of still frames advanced they showed him shifting to the pretty Wolf from the first picture. It was her Starshine, her child. She had to go to the Spirit Lake Reservation, the place her own grandmother had come from. Gently a hand covered her own, "I will arrange transportation for you. But you should eat and rest until it gets here," he told her. Then he gave her a little blank plastic card that stated it was an Intergalactic Identification card. "Just hold it between your thumb and forefinger, then pull the tape off and state your name," he told her as he demonstrated that she should use her other hand to pull off the tape while holding it. "Your daughter has one of these too." She watched in awe as her face and information appeared on it. Then she got a bit of a shock as 'Wolf Shifter' appeared across the bottom. "There's some sort of mistake," she said. "I only carry the Gene." She didn't know why she was compelled to trust these new people, but there was still some paranoia lingering from her long years of captivity. "No if you only carried the Gene it would say Shifter Gene. You must have shifted at some point, but maybe you just repressed it. It actually happens a lot," he said. "When, when you saw her, was she happy?" asked Joanne to change the subject. Scruffian pulled up the external footage of Starlight's crossing again. It started as she stepped onto the bridge in her human form. The frightened wearied look of someone living in fear. Then as she finally reached the checkpoint at the middle where the Furry Shifters were, she just shifted into a very beautiful wolf. "I remember her," said a newly arrived technician as she was eating her first truly decent meal in twelve years. "But I think she might have moved on to Wyoming or Colorado." "Beatrice, this is Joanne Curry, her mother." "Joanna, Beatrice. She's the Beta ComTech for the team that is going to take you to Spirit Lake" She couldn't believe how peaceful she was able to sleep on the trip toward the reservation. Of course the team had made other stops along the way since leaving the bridge between Tennessee and Missouri, but everyone had wished her good luck. It was at the stop at a girl's school that a Terrellian Transport Commander asked her a lot of questions. She said that she remembered hearing something about a girl named Starlight, and that she would be sure to forward the information once she remembered what it was. "Commander Shale, who was she asking about?" asked one of the newly transferred teachers. "Oh a young refugee named Starlight Curry, she's a wolf shifter who was through here last year I believe," answered Shale. "Commander that looks like a girl named Starlight that was part of that Roller Coaster Convoy, I'm sure of it" said the teacher. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IGP Headquarters, Omega Seven; The BOLO search screens lit up with the pictures of Starlight Curry to be forwarded to the Planetary Police who were to ask around at the Carnivals. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Princess of Pain caught up with Black Sixty-One just outside of Kansas City. Now they sat in the rest stop as the Transport waited for information. One carnival owner remembered seeing her, but she wasn't part of one of them. She'd been in one of the Convoy Diners. "Beatrice," said Commander Shale. "We'll take her from here. We have to go past Brightfeather's on our way to T-4 for our scheduled overhaul." Already the ComTech was calling Brightfeather's in Colorado. "Could you please inquire if this young lady is working in any of your Diners? Her mother is looking for her." her pictures and information were then forwarded to all the Convoy Diners. They'd just reached Brightfeather's when the Diner, Puma and her support Truck pulled in off the highway. Little Cat stepped over to the table filled with IGP Officers and Joanna Curry. "I remember this girl. She ate with us until we reached Omega Seven. But she wasn't with any of the Carnivals, she was with one of the families but I don't remember which one," she said honestly. "I think she mentioned having a sister who was a Tracker Scout. I remember seeing them together with a group of other girls." added Five Toes one of the waitress'. "Do you remember the Tracker Scouts name?" "It started with an M, she was with a Lycan Scout all the time too." Commander Shale keyed her Communicator. "Begin preparing to head for Omega Seven. That was her last known location. And try to contact Talon, she may have been in contact with one of the Tracker Scouts." She looked at Little Cat, "Are you by chance headed out to Omega Seven?" "Oh, no we just got back from Ruinstone. But Mustang is about to head out for Lyconia by way of Omega Seven and Iridani Five," she offered. "Their convoy leaves in about twenty minutes." +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Two hours from Saturn Junction on Titan they finally heard from Talon. "Tyree, I'm happy to help in any way possible," offered Serena Derrell. "We need to know if you had a Tracker Scout whose name started with an 'M'?" asked Commander Shale. "I had a few, but two are Protected Identities," she warned. "This one was involved with a Lycan Male." "Maleeza? She isn't in trouble, is she?" asked Serena. "No nothing like that, we are trying to locate someone she may know. A Wolf Shifter named Starlight Curry." She forwarded the pictures marking the recipient as simply, 'Training Transport'. "Commander Shale," Marsh cut in suddenly from the Claw. "Why are you looking for Starlight?" "You know her?" "Yes I know her. But why are you looking for her?" she asked again. "Please she's my daughter," pleaded Joanna as she jumped in front of the view screen. "Starlight Pierce is your daughter?" "Yes she must be, please tell me you know where she is," Joanne was in tears now. "Tyree, we just hit Pluto Junction. We'll hold up here for you to get here." "We'll refuel and be on our way," said Commander Shale. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Midnight Run was sitting at the Star Pilot preparing to make the Omega, Iridani, Delphi, Lyconia loop of their patrol when Princess of Pain arrived. Commander Lilly Curr stepped off of Midnight Run headed for Princess of Pain. As she stepped aboard she observed, "You're a week early, is there something going on we haven't heard of?" "Lil, we're helping a mother find her lost child." Tyree motioned towards Joanne. "Commanders Marsh and Derrell know her or perhaps where she can be found." "Who is her daughter?" "Starlight Pierce," she was shown the pictures. "Holy Howler Shit! Umm sorry, sorry, I mean Wow. No wonder Serena is being so cautious," said Lilly Curr. "Lilly?" "I've actually met Starlight Pierce," she said. "So has Serena. Her wife's Adopted Mother is Miss Malissa Pierce." "Of Malissa's Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies," finished Commander Shale now grinning. "Yeah, and about to become a grandma." "Starlight's married?" asked Joanne. "Yes and Anna's sister, Maleeza is engaged to Commander Lydia Shore's son Randy. And Anna is pregnant." "Look we'll go with you. We can do a Triple Phase to Iridani Five from Pluto Junction." ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It was now March, most of the damages from the attack had been repaired. We were all used to seeing the Nexies in our midst. And I was becoming very comfortable having a Nexie granddaughter. I was also happy to know that she would be raised without ever being exposed to the things we'd learned from the other Nexies who could not survive without the metal Exoskeletons they had been encased in once they were about three months old. An outer shell that their bodies had been speed grown to fit into while in stasis awaiting programming as Skecksies Soldiers. Still I almost jumped when the phone rang. Rachel was at the doctor's office with Ginger for a routine checkup to be sure that she was growing at a normal rate. "Pierce Residence, this is Anna," she said as she answered the phone at home. "Honey, is your Momma there?" asked Commander Derrell. "Which one?" she asked with an amused smirk. "Either one, or your Daddy?" "Just a moment Commander Derrell." "Momma, Commander Derrell is on the phone." She called out across the house. "Commander, a pleasant surprise," she could hear the curiosity in Malissa's voice. "Are you alone? I mean, I need a very private conversation with you." She said. "Hold on a minute," she could hear her going into another room. "Ok it's just the two of us." "I don't know how else to say this but ummm, Starlight's birth mother is on her way to Iridani," there was a long silence. "Oh, I see. When should we expect her? I was given the impression that she was deceased." Answered Malissa. "No but she was locked up in an Earth Government Lab until recently." Serena consulted her calculations, "we'll probably be there in about thirteen hours or so." "I'll talk to her, but it is her choice as to whether she sees her, and I can't promise anything." She disconnected and sat there for several long minutes. "Malissa?" Sophie stepped into the home office. "You look confused is there something I can do to help? That wasn't about Ginger was it?" Looking up now Malissa said, "We need Starlight, Anna and Donnie. Someone is searching for her." "For Starlight?" gasped Sophie. "The IGP is searching for Starlight? Are you sure it wasn't Tizzy?" "No it wasn't Tizzy, now go and get them please," said Malissa. Her heart was pounding, how was she going to tell Starlight that her mother might be coming here? She knew that her earring had alerted Donnie already. "Momma, what's going on?" asked Anna. "Where is Starlight Sweetheart? We have to talk to her," said Malissa as Donnie followed by Sophie stepped into the room. "She's visiting with Tizzy. Momma what's happening, is Starlight in trouble? Are they coming to arrest her for something?" Anna was beginning to panic now knowing who her Momma had just been talking to. And Malissa didn't want her upset in her condition. "No Sweetie, she isn't in any trouble." "Malissa what's going on?" asked Donnie. "Her mother is coming to see her," she looked up into Donnie and Sophie's eyes. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "Momma, what's happening?" asked Tizzy a few minutes later when they stepped into the front room of the cabin. Anna had rushed straight to Starlight, wrapping herself around her. "Starlight, how sure are you that your mother is dead? Did you see her body?" asked Donnie. "My mother?" they could see the confusion now. "Yes we need to know," said Sophie. "My, my father took her to the hospital when she had a fever. He said she died. Then he had all kinds of money from her life insurance," answered Starlight. "But he wouldn't let me go to her funeral." Now Malissa sat next to her. "I got a call from the IGP. Someone who claims to be your mother is coming here to find you." Tizzy gasped in shocked surprise. "Why, how would she even know I was here?" everyone could see the war of emotions and confusion going through her. "Honey, I know if you or any of your sisters or brothers were lost I wouldn't ever stop looking for you," said Malissa. "Did your mother know that you were a shifter?" asked Donnie. "No, not even my father knew I could shift but," she had a far off look in her eyes. "She sometimes growled, and sometimes," she looked at her fingernails. "Sometimes her nails grew really fast when he made her mad." We were assuring her that no matter what happened, no one was going to force her to go anywhere she didn't want to go. And that we intended to make sure that the woman really was her mother. Then Tizzy rushed to the door as Anya Marsh arrived on foot. She was carrying a little laptop and a DNA sampler. "I jumped ahead. I've talked with her at length, and she was being held by an Earth Agency after her husband sold her to them. All I need now for confirmation is a DNA sample for comparison," she was smiling politely. "If it is not a match she will not be brought here." Starlight nervously pressed her thumb to the indicated space and we were waiting as the drop of blood was analyzed. Then a sudden yowling screech escaped Tizzy's throat as she went into labor. Nor Vey scooped her up in his arms rushing to her nest, then became even more nervous than Donnie ever had. "I'm here for you Son," Donnie assured him. "She's going to be just fine." We were busy rushing about as we began preparing for the births. Nor Vey knelt beside her, holding her hand as she went through each contraction, her claws digging into his own hand. But he never showed a sign that he was in pain. Starlight and Anna eagerly helping as slowly the entire family gathered in the front room. Peace was born first, followed by Harmony and then Solar Matrix. I was puzzled by the last one, why had they named her Solar Matrix? Finally; Dr Tsing arrived and made sure that everyone was alright. And then I remembered why we'd come here. Commander Marsh was long gone, but Starlight sat nervously with Anna. "Starlight?" I asked. "She, She's really my mother," she was holding a printout of the DNA results. Cupping her chin, I looked into her eyes, "And you are still my daughter too. But by Tribal law you are an adult, free to make your own choices. Both of you," I drew Anna into the hug. Then I looked outside, Sheba stood in front of the door. Tank finally healed after the attack, stood at the bottom of the steps, Flora, Tadpole and Waddles across the top step. But ringed around the house were nearly three dozen wolves of the Community Pack. Taking out his phone now Nor Vey started to dial a number, then winced at the pain in his hand. "Nor, oh gods I hurt you," Tizzy was now worried as she tried to reach out to him past her kittens. "I'm fine love, it will heal quickly," he smiled. "I was just going to tell Trader and Ta Ray the happy news." "My Mommas are here, you go ahead. But bring me back some Blood Patties and Strawberry Milk. Please?" she said. "Five minutes, not a minute longer I promise." "It will take twenty to fix the patties. And you need your hand looked at. Promise me," she begged him. "Yes love," he kissed her then each of their kittens before he stood up grabbing a box off a shelf and was gone. "Damn," laughed Donnie. "I forgot to get a cigar." "Daddy," Tizzy got his attention. "Yours are in the drawer there." She motioned to a night stand. When he opened it he found two 'It's a Granddaughter', and one 'It's a Grandson' cigars. Then he lifted out a receipt for time deliveries to earth. "Go ahead Daddy press the seals," she said. It was only minutes later that our parents called us having gotten their own cigar deliveries. Momma was beside herself as she, Darla, Mai Ling and Monica gushed over the kittens. Things began to wind down after Nor Vey returned a few minutes earlier than expected. On the way back to the house Starlight asked, "Daddy, could Anna and I build a house of our own too? I mean have one built since we're not exactly the building types." "You pick the spot we'll build it for you," he promised. "Starlight," she turned to Anna. "Please let me pay for the house. I have my inheritance that I've never touched." It was true, both she and Maleeza had access to their inheritance, but neither had ever touched it. Now Anna wanted to use part of hers for a house. "But that's," "Our money," insisted Anna as she pressed her fingers to her lips to silence her protests. "Please?" I could tell by the way she was acting that she wanted the house for more reasons than just a place for the two of them to live. I suspected that this sudden change was because Starlight's mother was coming here. "Love," I turned to Donnie. "This isn't just a spur of the moment thing. Anna already has her house picked out, she's been trying to talk Starlight into it since she became pregnant," he explained. "Of course but there isn't any rush," I said. I enjoyed having our children here with us. Donnie and Erika had a little 3D drafting table in the office, and I had thought it was Erika who had been virtually constructing the houses. Of course, each time I looked it was different. Now I realized what the notations were for, RG, ED, MR and AS were the initials to designate the planners. With the 3D table, they didn't need to be architects. The table would automatically correct for mistakes. "AS-5, but we might want to make a few adjustments first," Starlight finally agreed. "Thank you Honey," Donnie kissed her forehead. "The Blank is already here; well I mean over at the Home sales store. All it needs is for you to upload the Specifics, and just like this house, if you want to make an addition, you just program it in." "That reminds me," giggled Sophie. "I need to get the guest room ready." She hurried to the room and began changing the linens on the bed and putting out fresh towels in the bathroom. We'd just finished and had reminded the littler ones that this was Starlight's Mommy and to let them have their privacy. I heard it the moment Claw turned at the end of the street. Of course, as the time had grown closer, Starlight had grown more and more withdrawn. I knew she was unsure, she hadn't seen her mother since she was five. And she'd been a boy with the name 'Starshine' at the time. Starlight was in her human form as Claw pulled to a stop in front of the house. Sophie, Donnie and I followed her and Anna as they stepped out onto the sidewalk. Then Starlight stopped as Joanne stepped off the Transport looking around at all of us before zeroing in on Starlight and Anna together. I could see her tears beginning to trickle down her cheeks, then suddenly Starlight let go of Anna's hand and rushed forward to wrap her arms around her mother. "Look at you, you're all grown up and, and such a pretty young Lady," I could hear the confusion still in her mother's voice. But it was of wonder not hurt. Finally, Starlight reached for Anna, "Momma this is Anna, my wife." Her head swiveled back and forth between the two her smile growing warm and welcoming. "And you're pregnant, we should get you to some place where you can sit down," then she seemed to notice the rest of us. "Joanne, this is Mrs Malissa Pierce, her husband Donnie and," began Commander Marsh. "A Spirit Woman of the Nations," finished Joanne. "Please everyone, come in out of the cold," said Donnie. She was still holding onto both Starlight and Anna as we settled into the family room. We'd been visiting for about an hour as they caught up with each other, and she began meeting everyone. Then as the littler ones were put to bed Tizzy called. "How's everything going Momma? Is she nice, does she accept her and Anna?" "Everything is going just fine. How are my Grandkittens?" I asked. "Oh Momma, I, I've never been this happy and so worried I'll screw up in my life. And Nor Vey is a nervous wreck. Every time one starts to fuss he's right there," she answered with a soft giggle. "Would the five of you like to come for a visit?" I asked. "Trust me a short walk carrying them and they'll settle right down. Plus, it will do you good to be up and moving around." I was headed towards the back door to turn the light on for them. "Nor Vey, I told you I could walk," she said as they appeared just inside the door. "But they might catch cold. And you just gave birth," he tried to reason. "Momma, this is my Sister Tizzy, and her husband Nor Vey and their triplets, Peace, Harmony and Solar Matrix," Starlight introduced them. "You're a Panther Furry?" asked Joanne. "No Momma she's a Panther Changeling," explained Starlight. "And they said you were a Wolf Shifter," Joanne said softly to Starlight. Holding her hands, she said, "Yes Momma I Am." and then she shifted. I was watching her as her body seemed to ripple a bit then settle back down. Subconsciously she was fighting her own shifting. Then Anna reached out to pet the seeming empty air. "It's alright Rip, she is Starlight's mother," and he dropped his camouflage. Suddenly Joanne shifted involuntarily at seeing the Howler so close for the first time. It was a tense half minute as they were finally introduced and learned that there wasn't any danger. Tizzy finally got Nor Vey to agree to let her walk home, and they left with Tank and the Community Wolves as an escort. Finally, we let Starlight and Anna show Joanna to the guest room and we went to bed. The only ones that she hadn't met yet were Danny, Denise and Maleeza. But they were due to arrive sometime in the morning. They'd been away visiting when Tizzy had her Kittens. And Danny was with Longreach and Rose. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I heard a scream and we were instantly out of bed rushing to the guest room. She was sitting up in bed, a look of fear in her eyes as Starlight rushed to her side. "It's alright Momma, you're safe here. It's ok to let your inner wolf out, no one will hunt you here." She'd awakened in her wolf form and became frightened. As the commotion died down everyone began their morning chores. She was understandably nervous as she joined us in the dining room, but quickly began to relax again. I heard a truck outside, but it sounded different. Not like Hopper or Ute Warrior, this was definitely a truck we weren't familiar with. But it was only the Tractor and it went to the end of the road then turned around before parking in front of the house. Denise, Lindsey and Rose hurried to the door. "Mommas we're home," called out Denise. "We caught a ride with Danny in Grizzly Bear." Before we could find out about the truck though Rose was there hugging me. "Momma says she'll be here as soon as she gets back from Fullers Hope in two days. Can you believe they bought Danny a truck for his birthday?" "Ohh, hi," she suddenly spotted Joanne. "Didn't we see you at Brightfeather's?" "Yes we did Love," Longreach nuzzled Rose's ear as he hugged her from behind. "She was riding with Princess of Pain, remember?" "This is Joanne, Starlight's birth mother," I said. "Oh my god, you're, I mean we had no idea," began Rose proving that she'd heard something recently. "If you were with that convoy shouldn't you still have another seven days' travel time?" Sophie asked them. "Sorry Mom," apologized Danny. "We had to do a long Phase Jump so we could see our nieces and nephew. Where's Rachel? I want to meet Ginger." "If we'd known who you were, we'd have brought you ourselves. We have plenty of room in the trucks," offered Longreach. Just before noon Maleeza and Randi arrived. They apologized for being late and we said it was perfectly alright. Maleeza spotted Joanne and gave her a hug, "Welcome to the family Momma Joanne." "What?" she was confused. "Starlight is my sister, so that makes you my Momma as well," she smiled. She began to get comfortable around everyone, trying to help with fixing meals and caring for the babies. Starlight had called in to work the last few nights, wanting to spend as much time as possible with her mother. The only one in the family who hadn't met her yet was Rachel, she had decided to stay at the Lightfeather's until Starlight's mother got used to everyone else. I was sure that it had a lot to do with Ginger's uniqueness. Then a week later after Starlight and Anna had picked the spot for their own home, she watched as it was delivered. Danny backed Grizzly Bear into the right place, then unhooked the rather short trailer. "I can't believe that tiny thing is really a house," Joanne remarked in fascination as her daughter and Anna reached together to press the activation button. Seven hours later they were giving everyone a tour of the house after the core taps had finished tapping into the water and thermal layer for the houses heat and electricity. Anna and Starlight had scanned their room, and now Anna plugged the little scanner into the wall panel. Slowly their bed, dressers and everything began to form just the way they had it, in the master bedroom. "Momma," they led her to another room. "Did you bring it with you?" asked Anna. "Are, are you sure you want me here with you?" asked Joanna as she fumbled with the scanner. "Yes Momma, we want you to be here with us. I've missed too much of your life already," Starlight answered as she guided her mother's hand with the scanner to the wall panel. When they were finished the rest of the family began carrying boxes from their old room, and boxes of the things that Anna and Starlight had taken her to buy since she'd only had the clothes on her back when she arrived. The new phone began to ring and Anna answered it. "Hello?" Anna answered as the wall lit up in a view screen. "Anna, I was trying to reach Starlight to find out if she's going to work tonight," began Stephie. "A lot of our regulars have missed her." Joanna's eyes grew huge at recognizing the performing stage in the background. "Sorry Ma'am, I'll be there," she promised as she glanced at her mother. After the call was finished Joanna asked, "You dance there?" "Yes Momma, but it isn't like you're thinking," she began hoping that her mother didn't think any less of her. "Is, is it classy? I mean, it isn't sleazy is it? They don't expect you to sleep with customers?" "No Momma, I would never do that. And everyone knows they do not touch the dancers. They make sure that we stay safe too," Starlight explained about the club and the rules. About all the safety precautions to protect the dancers. Anna pulled up the club on her Laptop and they were showing her pictures of everything. She noticed that Starlight's only photos on the sight were in her Wolf form. "It's a lot classier than the Penthouse Club in St Louis where I was working before," said Joanna suddenly stopping her explanation. "It looks more like the Butterfly Lounge in D.C. though. Now that was a high-class place to dance," she commented. "You danced momma?" asked Starlight in wonder. "That's how I met your father. Also, how I kept a roof over our heads and made sure we had enough to eat," she answered. Then she asked, "Have you been putting off going to work because you thought I wouldn't approve?" Starlight's silence was the only answer she needed. "Momma," Anna took hold of her hand. "Would you like to go with me tonight and watch her dance?" Joanna was looking around at everyone now. "Would you like it if Sophie and I went with you?" I asked. "You go to watch?" she asked Anna. "Yes every night she dances," confirmed Anna. "Alright, I will go with you." "You realize Stephie is going to have a couple of dancers there from the Butterfly on Earth," Sophie reminded Anna. "And I think our niece is going to be doing the Butterfly tonight." Added Sophie. "They have dancers from the Butterfly Lounge?" Joanna sounded a bit excited. "I've not done the Butterfly since," she stopped talking. "Stephie, the owner, says her Uncle Frankie and Aunt Lisa are going to be there too," added Starlight. "Frankie Heart?" I could see more than a hint of excitement. "Yes Momma," answered Starlight. "He probably wouldn't remember me; it's been so long." Donnie agreed to ride heard on the rest of the family while we were gone. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Joanna rode with Starlight and Anna while Sophie and I following in Cinderella. As we started in through the funneled entryway, Joanna reached out with her left hand to touch the picture of Starlight in her wolf form among the very few on the left side of the door. The right side were the regular dancers. The left was dedicated to those who performed the 'Lunar Moth' aka the 'Butterfly'. Starlight flashed her ID at the door scanner and a light above her picture began to flash. A Lunar Moth had just entered the Lounge. She waved to Ingrid who hurried over. "Stephie said you would be here. I have Anna's regular table reserved," she was taking in the rest of us. "Ingrid, tell Stephie that my Momma's are also here to watch." Said Starlight already in her wolf form. The girl turned around and held up five fingers to the barmaid before leading the way to the private section. "Miss Lisa, Frankie, this is Starlight, one of my Moths," said Stephie as she introduced her. Frankie was on his feet in a second, his hand reaching for Joanna's. "And she came in the company of my very first Butterfly," he said. His wife Lisa gasped as did two younger girls with them. "Please Frankie, I've not danced in twelve years," she blushed. "I'm just happy to see you again Honey," he kissed her hand. "A round of drinks on the house," said Stephie. As Joanna whispered into Lisa Heart's ear. "Frankie, don't push her to get on stage. She's been through a lot that would only enrage you if you saw what they've done," warned Lisa. I knew just enough about Frankie Heart to know that he was probably as deadly as both my oldest and youngest sister. Enough to know that he considered all of his dancers to be part of his family.
