Jamie’s POV:
Hi. The powers that be have FINALLY given me a chance to say something! Of course, they WOULD, just as I was now the ONLY one of 7 women still pregnant! Aaargh! Three weeks ago, Gracie delivered her little cutie, Crystal. Then, not 10 days later, Emmy, my friend and partner, gave birth to her little daughter, Jennifer. She was followed three days later by her sister wife, Sally, who presented Bill with his much anticipated son, Kevin.
It was a joyous time in the neighborhood, only muted by the fact that none of their babies appeared to have any telepathic abilities whatsoever. Oh, they were all introduced to CJ, who was already making more verbal noises, that sounded like words, but CJ didn’t seem to even try to communicate with them.
CJ would just look at them and flash, “Who?”
Mary seemed to think CJ might just be getting overwhelmed by all the new little faces. I don’t think that’s entirely true. With my new ‘enhanced’ telepathy and Mind Reading gift, I’ve developed a deep insight as to what people are thinking. Sheila, my newest ‘fellow redhead’ and soon to be in partnership with Emmy and I, agrees with me. That, for reasons unknown, CJ is just more drawn to his ‘blood’ siblings.
You see, Sissy (as CJ refers to Sarah’s little Abby) is CJ’s half-sister. He is VERY close to her, almost like she was his twin. Then Erik and Olivia, Linda and Bob’s twins, are nearly as close to him as Sissy. Linda is Bob and Charlie’s half-sister, so they are in essence, blood relatives also. Not to mention Charlie and Linda’s common bond of being ‘Healers’.
It makes me wonder how he will react and relate to Greg’s and my soon (Hopefully!) to be born son, who we are naming Tyler.
During both Sarah’s and Linda’s final month of pregnancy, he was ALWAYS wanting to lay on their baby bumps. We were convinced he was communicating with his future siblings and right after their births, it was more or less confirmed! The four of them now always want to be together in their playpen and it’s even difficult to separate them at night.
CJ DOES sleep in an oversized crib with Sissy, while Erik and Olivia share an oversized crib of their own. Linda and Sarah think it’s funny that the three littlest ones ALL wake up at the same time to be fed. CJ now sleeps through the night as he’s almost 4 months old.
He WILL wake up and summon ‘Mama’ if his buddies don’t get fed or changed quick enough!
Anyway, my point is, he only shows limited interest in laying on MY baby bump and his mental ‘babbling’ seems, well, aloof at best. I just know my Greg is going to be crushed if Tyler gets ignored like Gracie, Sally and Emmy’s kids.
I KNOW it’s insane to be psychoanalyzing a 4 month old, but, my hormones are making me crazy right now!
On a different note, I should tell you about some of the really COOL things that have happened!
Mary took all of us girls (Including Joni and Sheila) to see Hera and Zeus.
All I can say is ... FREAKING WOW!
First, Hera took us to the most gorgeous spa I’ve ever seen! We spent hours getting very sensual and relaxing massages. THOSE resulted in very erotic ‘Happy Endings’ doled out by scantily clad and hunky guys dressed like ancient gladiators. After that, we all received manicures and pedicures that were absolutely to die for. Zeus then joined us for lunch which was like something out of Medieval Times, only way more authentic than the dinner theater my parents took me to in Florida, back in 1983.
After a nice shopping spree (which Zeus did NOT attend with us) we returned home with promises to bring the kids with us as soon as my little one was about two months old. Hera also conned Zeus into bestowing the same ‘gift packages’ on Joni and Sheila that WE all had.
Rex and Jer-Bear were flabbergasted!
Joni and Sheila were also encouraged to visit Hera whenever they wanted to, now that they had that ability.
Okay, so what else has been happening.
Charlie DID end up buying the Edison’s house and the happy retired couple are now living in an upscale over-55 community in Florida. We had a neighborhood party for them the last day they were here.
Rex and Jeremy persuaded their bosses that they would be better off in Chicago as liaison agents between the CIA, NSA and the FBI. Because of the recent escalations of tensions between the Mob and a few major street gangs, it was being considered that something bigger and more sinister was behind it.
MY guys, Greg, Bob and Charlie were doing some ‘behind the scenes’ investigations of their own. I’m not sure what that means, but we were all told to be vigilant of anything that seemed to be out of the ordinary.
Right now, Greg is giving me a truly wonderful foot massage. I’m on babysitting duty and the four little monkeys are in a puppy pile, sound asleep.
“Ohhh, Huggy Bear, you really know the way to my heart! Giggle, there’s a spot about 30 inches higher that could use some oral attention?”
He was inadvertently tickling the crap out of me as he started licking and kissing his way up to my needy spot. I was gasping and hissing as he got closer and closer. I was just about to lose it when CJ flashed, “Mio too coming Jamie, Mio too coming!”
Greg raised his head in wonder just before my crotch seemed to explode in a flood of, ughh, OH SHIT, my water just broke! Then I felt like my pussy was trying to let loose a watermelon! Oh man that hurts. It only lasted a few seconds, but I knew it was time to skedaddle to the hospital.
I was nearly in tears as my doubts about CJ and how he was going to accept our little guy vanished. Greg wasn’t much better.
I wanted to slap him though when he asked, “Should I get Jeremy to deliver our son?”
“Hell no, you goof! Get my go-bag and get my ass to the hospital! You don’t see no head yet do ya?”
I WAS sending out a mental ‘SOS’ to my sisters, letting them know their babysitter was about to fly the coop.
CJ then lookeds up at us and started crying big alligator tears, “Mio too need Leela, Mama! Mama, Daddy help Mio too!”
Suddenly, my heart leapt into my throat. If the image CJ sent was true, Tyler was choking to death in my womb! Greg flashed for someone to call Doc Meyers as he picked me up and we teleported to the hospital. Charlie flashed that he and Linda were invisible and would meet us there.
Mary said she was going to try to help ... then SHE disappeared!
“Mary, where did you go?” I flashed urgently.
“I’m trying to help little Tyler.”
“Okay, THAT I understand ... but WHERE are you?”
“In the hospital, I hope! I’m trying to untangle his umbilical cord. It’s just that it’s so huge, I don’t think I can move it!”
She sounded distraught.
“HUH? ... WHAT THE?” ... Then I looked through her eyes and realized EXACTLY where she was. She was inside my womb! “How the heck did you get in there?”
“I don’t have time to explain, ... Tyler is dying ... oh God...”
Mary’s POV:
When CJ showed us what was happening to little Tyler, I felt that I needed to snap everyone out of their shock and just started giving orders. Thank God that Greg wasted no time and Jamie was sure that Doctor Adrianne Meyers, our OB/GYN was on duty. I flashed Greg, telling him he might have to ‘push’ Doc Meyers in order to NOT waste any time arguing about HOW we knew to prepare for an emergency Cesarean section.
I just hoped he’d be at least somewhat easy on her.
I was praying that what I was attempting to do next would work.
Hera had given me a special ‘package’ of abilities that I could use if and ONLY IF, someone in the family, particularly the kids, were ever in dire need. I was sure THIS qualified, and I was right.
I was able to surround myself in a ‘super-oxygenated’ protective bubble just like the guys could do. Unlike their bubble, however, I could use all of my ‘protective package’ abilities from inside my little bubble. Psychokinesis and shrinking myself to any size were just a couple of those. I took a chance and after quickly getting ready, I teleported into Jamie’s womb as a one-inch sterile bubble. I was able to maneuver myself to get up by Tyler’s head and could see that his umbilical cord had somehow gotten wrapped around his neck.
I’d just identified the problem when Charlie flashed, wondering where I was. Panic was setting in as I knew that seconds were becoming critical to little Tyler’s survival. BUT, I HAD to tell and show him where I was, because I didn’t want him ‘popping in’ anywhere near me!
THAT would have been disastrous!
Oh GOD, I wished I had more experience with this moving things with my mind stuff. I knew that if I just ripped apart the umbilical cord, there was a good chance Tyler could die. I needed Charlie’s help and I was running out of time!
“Oh Charlie! I can’t move the cord ... it’s too heavy and if I pull on it wrong, I’ll just make it worse! HELP ME! PLEASE?”
“Take a deep breath sweetheart! I can help, but you have to stay calm ... did Hera give you anything called ‘hyper-connection’?”
“YES, yes, I can link up with you. I’m activating it now! Okay, now what?”
“Now, I’m going to help you to just slowly stretch the cord that’s choking little Tyler. Just keep your eyes on his neck so I don’t rip it. We’re at the hospital, I’m invisible and Jamie’s being prepped for an emergency C-section. We just have to relieve the pressure until they cut her open. I’m doing it now ... is it working?”
I could see the cord slowly stretching and the baby’s facial expression went from extreme distress to at least moderate relief. His color was even flushing slightly as somehow I could sense the circulation was starting to return to his little head and neck.
“It’s working Charlie! Oh God! IT’S WORKING! How much longer can you hold it?”
“As long as you can keep your eyes on his neck! Get ready to pop out of there and make sure you go invisible and land directly behind me when you do. They’re just about to make the first incision. They said they had to make two before they could get to the baby.”
“Charlie, it might be a good idea if you don’t watch them cut her ... you know how you get!”
“Don’t worry! Greg’s right next to me, he’s going to keep me informed.” Charlie tried to assure me.
“Did they let him in the room? They never usually do that with an emergency C-section operation.”
“Not exactly ... he’s invisible just like me. The hardest thing is just trying to stay out of everyone’s way. Get ready to move, sweetie ... they’re making the second incision. Pop out behind me ... right ... NOW!”
I kept my eyes on Tyler while saying a silent prayer that the doctor would recognize the situation and react correctly. Little Tyler wasn’t out of the woods yet.
Back to Charlie...
Charlie’s POV:
I felt Mary put her hand on my shoulder, having left her place helping little Tyler.
The doctor gasped, looking down into Jamie’s womb, “Oh my God! Your husband was right! I doubted him. I didn’t believe he could know that the cord had really been choking the baby. I think we’re going to be okay. I’m cutting the umbilical cord right now. Let’s see if he can breathe on his own.”
She tapped his back and Tyler coughed out a crisp tight cry.
We’d been holding our breath.
Greg was nearly hugging Mary and me to death. We heard the Doctor telling Jamie as she was being sewed up, “You know, the more I think of it, this had to have happened right here at the hospital. If his umbilical cord had been like this for more than 2 or 3 minutes, you would have ended up with a stillbirth. I have to wonder if your husband is perhaps clairvoyant? He said a ‘little birdie’ had told him there was a problem. There’s no way this could have happened while you were still at home. I know you guys live a good 10-minute drive from here ... WAIT A SECOND ... how DID you get here so fast? Do you have one of those cellular telephones?”
Jamie looked up from watching Tyler resting in her arms, “Yes, he does. We were lucky you could get us in so quickly.”
I knew she was trying to change the subject. Greg flashed, “I DIDN’T lie. A little birdie, named CJ, DID tell us. If he hadn’t, my son wouldn’t be alive right now! Charlie, I owe your little guy everything... “
We popped out to the waiting room so we could drop our invisibility. Since nobody else was in there, we did. Greg’s face was full of tears. He kissed Mary exuberantly, “I don’t know what you did exactly, but I can’t thank you enough.”
Mary smiled, blushing sweetly, “You REALLY need to thank Hera the next time you see her. She gave me a very special gift that made it possible. Charlie helped too. It was a total family effort. Linda was here too. Since we ended up not needing her, she went back home to help with the babies.”
“But ... if CJ hadn’t told us that Tyler was in distress, we would never have known until it was too late.” Greg said quietly, fighting back his emotions. “I love my little Mio”
“Love you Mio. Mio too, where Mio too?” We were stunned that CJ had picked us up and that his telepathy could reach this far.
Greg flashed, “Mio too is just fine CJ.”
“Where Mio too, Mio?”
Greg chuckled, “He’s too far away to hear you, Mio. You can see him tomorrow.”
“Ohhh.”
We could almost see his little face. Sarah flashed, “He’s been beside himself, crying, ever since you guys left. I’ll try to explain everything to him, so hopefully he might understand and relax now.”
I felt CJ’s concern and popped home, kissed Sarah, then picked up CJ and popped back to Greg and Mary. Greg was grinning as he took CJ into his arms, kissing his little cheek. “Let’s go see Tyler, shall we Mio?”
“Mio too... ‘Tie were’?” CJ questioned.
“Yes CJ, Tyler is ‘Mio too’s name.”
CJ’s mouth was making a perfect ‘O’ as he gazed at Greg in wonder. Greg carried CJ into Jamie’s room where she was just being wheeled in on the gurney with Tyler nursing on her chest. Mary took Tyler while they transferred Jamie to her bed. Mary brought Tyler over by Greg and CJ.
“See Mio? Tyler is fine. You saved him!”
“‘Tie were’?”
There was no reaction, which while somewhat expected, left Greg with a soft sigh.
But, when CJ said, “Mio too?”
We ALL heard, “CJ! You here? Who ‘Tie were’?”
“YOU ‘Tie were’, Mio too, Mio say you name ‘Tie were’.”
“Ohhh ... Hungry CJ ... tired.”
“Mama Jamie, ‘Tie were’ hungry!”
While we all were stunned, Greg was just in awe. He kissed CJ’s forehead, “You know, I think my little Mio has been talking to Tyler for quite some time. It must not have been necessary for him to be in physical contact with Jamie in order to make his mental connection!?”
“Hungry Mama, hungry.” CJ flashed, reaching for Mary. Greg told him, “Mama Jamie is feeding Tyler, Mio”
“No Mio, Me hungry, mmmm.”
Greg handed him off to Mary and he immediately began patting Mary’s bosom. “Hungry Mama!”
I pulled a chair up next to Jamie’s bed so Mary could feed CJ. Mary wasted no time unbuttoning her blouse and unsnapping her maternity bra. CJ didn’t waste any time either, hungrily attacking his favorite lunch nipple!
Greg grinned at me, “How’s about I buy you a cup of mud down in the cafeteria, Charlie?”
“Sure, buddy, sounds like a plan!”
Jamie giggled, “Oh, hey Baby Daddy, I sure hope you’re ‘planning’ to change your son’s first diaper, FIRST!?”
Charlie POV: Having just renewed our bond with our neighbors, I had to figure a way to send them away without making it seem rude. There simply wasn’t time for a long drawn out explanation. The situation was very complex and even OUR girls and Bob were mostly in the dark about most of it. I flashed Mary my concerns and assurances of ‘full disclosure’, but that time was of the essence and our neighbors at this point didn’t have ‘a need to know’. Our neighbors had already figured out...
Bob POV: (Still) Ibera was hugging me. I was still trying to figure out just what she meant by, ‘I’d caused a paradox’. And just what did she mean that I wasn’t fucked if she and Zeus could help it? I looked in her eyes, “Is there some way I can make this right?” “Possibly ... but first ... we need to figure out which reality you need to be in to do it. The big problem is that there are certain ‘Rules’ that neither Zeus nor I can violate. One of them is that we CAN’T tell you what to do...
We’d conferred, mentally, and chose to enter right at the entrance to the 5th Dimension. It’s where all of the portals were. This was where we landed the first time we ‘Spirit Walked’. We felt this would make our friends aware that we weren’t in Kansas anymore! It had the desired effect. Our friends were awestruck. Gracie was the first to ask, “Where are we? What’s with all of these TV’s?” Ed was like a kid in the big city for the first time, he was wide-eyed and looking all around. I...
Luckily, with the rush hour traffic, our four suspects couldn’t drive very fast, so flying without our helmets wasn’t too big a deal. We reported to Brock and TJ that they were driving a 1984 Buick Grand National. We gave them the Wisconsin license plate number, which TJ was going to run immediately. We were soon told that the car HADN’T been reported stolen and was registered to one Kurt Alsip, of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. They were headed west on IL SR 64. Just past Sycamore Speedway, they...
Charlie’s POV: (Cont.) With Rex, Jeremy and Willie all being called away to Chicago, and CJ seemingly trying to ‘help Willie’, I told the Family I needed to pay a quick visit to Zeus. I needed to see just how much and exactly what kind of ‘help’ Zeus had actually given my son. Since I’d only be gone from here for a few minutes, Mary was going to just tell everyone that I was going to my cabin for a bit. Bill, Sally, Emmy and their kids would be arriving shortly, so they needed to set...
Screwed if you Don’t Mid-August, 1985 He grinned, “Nice to finally meet you Charlie! I’ve heard SOOO much about you and your family.” “Are you ready for our showdown tomorrow, boy?...” “Just remember, ‘old man’, no dirty tricks. Have you done what I asked?” He looked at me warily, “I told you, I don’t have anyone under my control right now.” I looked over at Dad and he winked. I took that as a sign he was still okay. I did want to check something however, so I shook hands with Johnny....
[He was the one doing most of the peeking.] Dad asked Greg to employ his ‘bubble’ and he began. “Okay, first off, I AM NOT going to try and impersonate Charlie. I WOULD like Gracie and Ed to be an integral part of the plan however. Johnny is definitely panicking and left 10 messages on Joshua’s answering machine to contact him ASAP. “I’m pretty sure after talking to Johnny this afternoon that he really thinks I’m Jonah. He asked me point blank if I knew anyone named Charlie. I told him I...
[My son is going to kick your ass tonight by showing everyone HIS abilities are much better than YOURS.” “OH YEAH?” Sherman roared, “We’ll just SEE about that!”] “Yes WE will, Sherm. It just occurred to me, that I’m getting the short end of our bet. Let’s sweeten the pot, shall we? I’ll match whatever money you’ve got left that Butch gave you! I’m guessing that’s close to a million dollars or more. Are you willing to put that up?” He was speechless, “How did ... No way, what makes you...
Alpha/Beta DynamicsI often get asked about my approach to alpha males and how to make the dynamics work between alpha and beta males when cruising or in a social scene. Hooking up or initiating a contact that will lead to something more is harder than it seems. I hope that I can give some perspective on this and share some of my experience. All too often I hear from guys who bump in to the Ying to their Yang and yet are unable to make a physical or social connection happen. Guys who are...
Where There’s a Will There’s a Way! July, 1985 [I thought Greg was going to shit a brick when he saw me stuffing my face in epicurean ecstasy! “Un-freaking-believable! Charlie, you’re INCORRIGIBLE!”] It only got worse, when Mike saw it and said, “Wow, that looks delicious! CJ, you the MAN. Can I get one of those?” Greg just rolled his eyes, “Ughhh. If ya can’t beat ‘em, may as well join him.” And he got one too. Our entire family group from last night sat down together for...
US MARSHALLS SERVICE SECRET DETENTION AREA, NW OF WASHINGTON D.C. Jeremy POV: We managed to get all the prisoners separated and into cells. We then decided to let them stew for a little while before Pops flashed that he wanted to bring in Franklin. He was planning on teleporting Franklin in so he wouldn’t know where he was being taken. He had Rex go into an empty cell and turn invisible, standing in the center of the cell. He was planning to pop in right behind him then both of them would...
Charlie POV: When we arrived back at home, we were totally disoriented as far as what time of day it was. When the whole episode with the assassins started it was around 4:00 pm on Friday. Looking outside, it was twilight and all the workers were gone from the back yard. It was very quiet. All of the babies were hungry and needed changing. We all pitched in taking care of the kids, even Sheila and Joni. Rex and Jeremy took orders for carryout chicken and took off to get dinner. The kiddos...
A CHAEMARIAN SPACESHIP NEAR GROMORIKIAN SPACE Charlie POV: “So Lars, how... exactly ... are we going to intercept our evil Gromorik space kidnappers?” I asked, “Ibera told me the story about how you ‘telekinetically’ or ‘psychokinetically’ pulled a Gromorik and a Greyzarian mothership towards a planet to stop some kind of a skirmish?” His eyes lit up in laughter, “WOW, I’d forgotten about that! Well, to be honest, I may have told a bit of a ‘fable’, embellishing what I actually did.” I...
We spent nearly 20 hours at Ibera’s. My old friend is now completely up to speed on how our Family became what it is and how we all developed our powers. First, how we developed them early on, then all the way to reacquiring them after CJ was born, then, to all the current iterations. He stopped us many times to relate how he’d been required to investigate different missions we’d been on. The CIA had been much more interested than I’d thought. Bill also made it clear that TJ and even Jim...
Charlie POV: When we left Bill and Bruce we decided to just pop to my house to talk since there wouldn’t be anyone there. Mary, Sarah and Jamie went back to the boat to be with the kids while Joni and Sheila came with us to be with Rex and Jeremy. TJ was going into more detail about what was going on at CIA headquarters. Most everything was about what we’d already gone over with Bill and Bruce. TJ said, “I don’t know if you’re aware, but Franklin is just the interim Executive Director. He...
[“Do you trust him to keep our secret?” “I’d like to think so, ... but,... “] Joshua took a deep breath before looking each of us in the eye. “Let me ask each of you a question. I want you to think about it carefully. Your answer will be my answer as to whether or not I breathe a word of this to my friend Johnny. “Would any or all of you be willing to dedicate one year to a project that my friend Johnny and I might want to restart? And what if I could virtually guarantee that each of you...
[“I laid low, just raising you kids after that until TJ called me in late 1972.”] “What happened then?” Bob asked. “We put together a plan of how Jim and TJ could use my abilities without putting any of us in danger!” Dad smiled brilliantly. “So, you’re not trying to talk us out of our plan with Tom? It sure sounded like you were trying to scare us out of the idea.” I exclaimed. “Scare you? Yes, and no. Enlighten you? Definitely.” “So what’s the plan?” Bob asked excitedly. “Hold your...
Charlie POV: The talk and subsequent agreement for us to help ‘sexually educate’ Matt and Ralph’s kids led to many discussions. The idea of teaching such nubile, young cuties about loving and sex while arousing on one hand, left us also questioning whether we could be sure just how it would affect them. We DID decide that before we indulged their desires, they were going to get a discussion to let them talk through the possible complications. Those ideas led to the adults of both families...
"You said the carpeting and window treatments are included in the purchase price?" Patricia asked. "Exactly. You can change those after you move in, with the Homeowner's Association approval," Bob answered, "but, essentially, the interior of each home can be decorated according to individual tastes." Bob didn't like to dwell on Association rules, they brought death to a sale. "The builder will let you select options. If you'll look through your folder, you'll see several attractive...
For convenience and reader ease, all conversations are translated in English. Ciwalen, Jawa, Indonesia "Hey Cary, wait up!" Hearing my best friend Fariz's voice I halted in my stride, so he could catch up and we could go together to school, which was still at least another kilometer away. As he caught up with me he said: "Did you hear about Rino?" Rino was another friend of us; he caught MORFS a week earlier. I shook my head, "No what happened?" "He was taken away by some...
Charlie’s POV: Our trip to visit Zeus had been enlightening. Discovering that when we visited Zeus we were actually doing so in a different dimension as opposed to merely a location went a long ways to explaining the time dilation. To us it felt like we were gone several hours. According to JoAnn, we were gone less than half an hour. Even Mary and Hera’s little trip felt like it was five or six hours to Mary, where to us, she had only been gone a little more than an hour. That’s why the...
Viktor POV: ‘Son of a BITCH! What the HELL just happened?‘ I thought to myself. I’m sitting here trying to catch my breath, having narrowly escaped disaster, and now trying to figure out who the HELL I’d just run into. I’m pissed off at myself for having to run like a scared cat! That NSA asshole I so easily terrified down at Gitmo WASN’T the same guy I just ran into in Chicago. I also have to believe he wasn’t the ONLY one there who had powers like me! That fucking Locuro had been babbling...
September 29, 1996, Chicago, Illinois “That was really dangerous, Kara,” I said as we showered after the sauna. “I was just trying to nudge her forward a bit,” Kara protested. “Asking her to have sex in front of you is NOT a nudge! It’s a spinning jump kick to the abdomen! Think about where she was just six months ago! She’s not you, Kara. She came from very conservative, Hispanic, Roman Catholic family, and she was NOT a ‘free spirit’!” “I’m sorry.” “I actually don’t mind gentle nudges,...
We’d just given our new friends a glimmer of hope ... I just hoped we could pull it off without getting any of us killed. We needed to take Matt with us which was part of the problem. Somehow we needed to get the pirates away from the dock area long enough for Matt to get away. I asked Rex to come up with a plan. He smiled, then had Bob ‘call up’ the visual of the island, in current time. “Okay”, he smirked at Bob, “Thanks to Bob, what I first was certain was too much gear, turns out to be...
Rex POV: (Cont.) [I laughed, perhaps too hard, “Chen doesn’t scare me! Jonah’s MY friend!”] When we finished, Rodgers and Monte were nowhere to be found. Since they’d disappeared, Sloan took us out to find some lunch. It’s too bad they didn’t have any Portillo’s in this God-forsaken part of the world. Sloan took us, instead, to his favorite mom and pop diner. At first it looked like just another greasy spoon place, but the food was really good and the staff was friendly and efficient. We...
“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”Anthea looked up at her mum as she sat down at the dining table. “Nothing is wrong,” Anthea responded watching as her mum hurriedly dried her hands with a tea towel.“Is the baby okay? Are you okay? Is Jack okay?” she asked as her husband came into the room and pulled up a seat at the table.“We’re all fine Mum,” she responded exasperated with her mum’s anxiety. “I have something to tell you.”“Sit down Helen,” her dad snapped. “Give the lass a chance to speak.”Anthea...
Uther By Ellie Dauber (c) 2006 Introduction According to the legends of King Arthur, Merlin changed Uther Pendragon into a double for Duke Gorlois, so he could spend the night with Ygraine, the Duke's wife. Ygraine and Gorlois had three daughters: Elaine, Morgause, and Morgan le Faye. During their time together, Ygraine became pregnant with the child who was to become King Arthur. Uther's men killed Gorlois that same night. This is my TG (of course) version of what...
The the wind howled around the quayside as I stepped onto terra firma for the first time in weeks, the wind threw sharp shards of ice to sting our faces as we looked up at the sails as they were finally furled and stowed as our captain grinned at our discomfiture, "Au revoir!" he joked as if he knew we should soon be recalled. Those such as were left, and we were few enough, I shuddered. My best uniform packed securely in my Valise, awaited me, and just a few more duties before I...
Sasha Fedoseev pulled out his driveway and started down the road. Sasha was by most accounts a successful man. He had started a corporation in his early 20's and had guided its ascent. His company now had three subsidiary corporations. He employed over five hundred employees through his subsidiaries and the parent corporation he had founded 10 years earlier. The parent corporation had its offices in a building several miles from Sasha's home. It was there that his staff worked. He had...
Section Chief Rodgers POV: Dammit! What the hell just happened? That fucking Chen has put me into one hell of a trick bag. I had everything set up perfectly to slide into the Black-Ops Executive Directors job and that fucking Chen comes along. I don’t know how that weasel managed to get my spot, but he did and I’ve been sucking hind titty ever since. How the hell am I going to explain to the Director that Executive Director Chen just up and disappeared? Like he’s gonna believe ‘Jonah’ did...
[“I’ll have a long heart to heart talk with her, Linda. Maybe it’s good she’ll be here for a few extra days. Let’s get home and look at these pictures!”] We greeted the family when we returned home, then Linda and I promptly went to my office to start laying out pictures. I pulled out my pad of 18”x 30” lightly gridded graph paper and tore off a sheet for each of us. We each had a legal pad and began writing down all of the things Stan had ‘dreamed’ to us, that he wanted in his house. The...
[Could this night get any stranger?] Thankfully it didn’t, at least not right away. When our ‘gang’ re-entered the campgrounds, the campers that sat gathered around the bonfire seemed oblivious that anything out of the ordinary had happened earlier that night. But, after parking our bikes, as they watched all of our group excitedly sprinting over to the campfire they must have suspected something was up. They were all but dragging a giggling Sarah with them. Since everyone began hollering...
Why Does the Feces Always Collide with the Circular Air Mover? July, 1985 [“Charlie, Charlie, God, I hope you can hear me, this is Dad. Stan thought the Coast Guard was pulling us over for a routine check but it’s a bunch of pirates! You gotta help us!”] “Dad, I hear you, where are you?” “I’m not sure, we flew into Lynden Pindling International Airport in the Bahamas and took a limo to a port on the south side of the island. Stan had his hydrofoil there and we were going to his island to...
... Let the Good Times Roll! July, 1985 [A loud cheer went up from everyone in the room. I looked back at Adam and Lori, “DEAL.” Adam gave the order, “Crew, prepare to dock and disembark onto the island. It’s time to Paaaah-Tay!”] The Captain announced, just after we docked, “Don’t forget, the dress code here is ‘Au naturale’ All you need is sandals or deck shoes. No clothes allowed! Plush terri-cloth robes will be available if you get chilly. The temperature rarely dips below...
FUBAR’D? (Fully United by Always Repairing Disasters?) July, 1985 [“Oh my God, I think we’ve run aground!” Melody exclaimed.] Bob, Greg and I were looking at each other wondering what we could do. I heard the hydraulics of the boat launch being lowered and the three of us rushed down to talk to Captain Morgan. The deck was lowered but was at a weird angle because part of it was caught on the sandbar. Brian and his son were running around grabbing scuba gear, while Captain Morgan and Mike...
We spent the rest of the day frantically packing the things we would need for our trip. We grabbed the two backpacks that Greg and Linda had purchased last summer for their little camping excursion. One of the things we would need to find on the way was some climbing gear. Greg reminded us that the place where we shopped in Albuquerque also sold climbing gear and had a fake mountainside so people could practice. We helped Ed take his Sportster out of the trailer, where he had been storing...
[I’ve got a blindfold on and I think I’m on a boat somewhere. Can you hear me?...”] “Yes Sarah! I hear you. Are you alright?” “Yes, I’m scared! What do they want with me?” “I don’t know, sweetie, Dad is on the phone with the State Police. You remember Major Gregory, right?” “Yes. Is he going to help me?” “If he can, if not, he knows who CAN help. Listen, Sarah, I’m two hours from home, but we’re headed there as fast as we can. YOU’VE gotta stay calm, okay? Try and get them to take your...
[Greg stopped and paused. He turned around with a face full of tears, “Charlie and I were just trying to be nice...”] He sniffled, “I’m gonna be late...” He turned and slowly walked out the front door, closing it gently behind him. Everyone started looking at me, not knowing what to say. I held up my hand, firmly. “I’ve gotta talk to my friend.” Then quickly ran out and jumped in the passenger seat of his truck. He started the engine, “What are you doing, Amigo?” “I dunno, but I’m NOT...
Intermission, Prelude and Fugue July 4, 1985 [TJ smirked, “Well, Hells Bells, looks like Janet and I are gonna have to put in for a permanent transfer to the Chicago office! God knows the scenery is NOTHING like this in Pittsburgh!” Mary was smiling at us gleefully as we smiled back.] Dad asked what time it was. I said it was almost 3:30pm. He told us that the parents were all going to Lino’s Italian eatery in Rockford for dinner. It was right on State St., not far from Sinnissippi Park....
[Since Greg and I had slept in, we weren’t even tired ... yet.] We opted to take the Florida Turnpike, because, even though it was a toll road, it wasn’t like the asinine tollways in Illinois, where you have to stop every 10 miles and throw money into a tollbooth. This had the tickets, like Indiana and Ohio, where you pay when you get off. It also had fuel plazas so you didn’t have to get off to buy gas. It’s the most direct way to go and we didn’t have to go through any of the big cities....
Charlie POV: I was happy with the way the Directors were handling our encounter with the Russians. They never had any intentions of just destroying both submarines and possibly killing their crews. Also, Director Logan does desperately want to change the culture of the CIA from the way I viewed it after Dad told us about his experiences with it when we were just little kids. Neither Bob nor I remember anything before living here in Illinois. Our operation, ‘Let’s Goose Gorbachev’, went...
[“Possibly. The Mobs lawyers already know way too much about what happened. We’ve got to clean up the WHOLE ‘pig sty’ first thing tomorrow, before it’s too late. Here’s the plan... “] Blake started, “I’ve got TJ, Janet and 3 of your new friends from the Jacksonville FBI office flying in later tonight. Everyone in on the bust of the Omaha FBI headquarters are meeting in a church parking lot a couple miles from the headquarters building, which is in downtown Omaha. I’m going to make sure...
[Like who was going to sleep with whom tonight.] That discussion was fast, furious and fun. With 9 people, 5-women, 4-guys and 3 beds it was going to be interesting. Since Sarah, Linda and Jamie would only allow one particular cock in their pussies AND demanded ALL of their guy’s deposits, they assigned themselves to whatever bed their guys were in. TJ, Janet and Mary decided to play ‘musical beds’ then planned to ‘sleep’ together. Greg and I slept with Jamie and Sarah, who both insisted on...
All Good Things Come to an End. July, 1985 [By now we were all laughing. I wondered if I should get Emmy to join them. Nahh, poor Ray would probably have a coronary!] We were summoned to the bar/swing room for the initiation ceremony. Melody, Roberto and Adam (Captain Morgan) were in the DJ booth. Jessica, Tammy, Bobbi and Brandy were being fastened into special swings that looked different from the ones we used the other night. Underneath them were hydraulic benches that seemed much more...
Charlie POV: On Thursday, Bob, Linda and I went out to our new place to do a quick, preliminary layout of the 300’ x 400’ footprint of our new place. We needed to see where we might put the new RV trailers that were to be delivered on Saturday morning. We didn’t want them to be in the way of the construction crews. The first thing we saw was that if we centered the new place perfectly on the flat area within the copse of palm trees, the existing house was going to be mostly inside the...
[ Mary and Sarah found out my lips weren’t too sore to kiss them passionately, before the three of us fell fast asleep.] *** Mary and Sarah were the first ones up. As I cracked my eyes open, I saw them padding towards the kitchen. Two minutes later they were back, pulling my ass out of bed telling me the ‘days a wastin’. “What the heck time is it?” Mary replied, “It’s 6 o’clock, come on, we’re getting married today!” As much as I wanted to frown, all I could do was chuckle and pull them...
As I was fixing bacon, eggs and toast for everyone, things began settling down. The conversation centered around how much our lives were about to change with a little one on the way. While eating, we all retreated into our own thoughts. When we had finished eating, I suddenly felt a deep need to make love to Mary. I managed to catch Greg’s eye, and nodding, I gestured my intentions with my eyes. He understood immediately. I got up, and took Mary by the hand and led her to our bedroom. As we...
Half the Fun is Getting Started July 21-22, 1985 [We all fell asleep in what could best be described as a puppy pile!] *** We woke up to a grinning Jessica and Tammy. Tammy, having just noticed we were all nekkid, blushed profusely. She was looking anywhere and everywhere but at us. “Oh my gosh. Jessica didn’t know you’d all be in here. We were planning on surprising you by getting things cleaned up. I’m sooo embarrassed.” Greg stood up with his morning glory pointing the way. “Sorry to...
[I grinned, “Looks like I get a four sweetie treat tonight! Who wants on top?”] Jamie smirked, “If we take a shower and put in a fresh plug, would you pleasure our clitties with your tongue, while Mary rides you?” “Mmm. I’d love to. If you’re not flowing real heavy, you can wait till after I’m done to insert your Tampons.” Sarah giggled, “Yep, he’s our Hero all right! A braver man I’VE never seen.” Linda laughed, “He’s liable to look like Dracula when he’s done though.” I may have gone...
Charlie POV: When we returned things began happening quickly. Bob and I popped to Dad’s cabin and found our two pallets of cash just like we left them. We ‘relocated’ them to Dad’s garage before contemplating whether to bring the three girls’ bikes and our two ATVs. We decided to leave them in the cabin’s garage for now, so as not to unnecessarily clutter Dad’s. On Monday, Ed, Bill, Gracie, Rex and Jeremy all helped go through the rest of their condemned houses, recovering much more than...
[“I think I just killed a guy!... “] We were all stunned! “Where are you? What happened???” “I’m at the convenient store, just north of Route 38 on Randall, there was a robbery, I was just trying to stop them from escaping! I think I killed one of them!...” “We’re on our way. Don’t say ANYTHING to ANYBODY until we get there!” “I won’t, please hurry!” We jumped in the Chevy and were flaming up Randall as fast as our ‘Queen Mary’ would go. It only took a couple minutes and there were...
Greg was pleased that the new trailer was pulling so well. His new truck had a very powerful diesel engine instead of the big gas engine his other truck had. He felt the dual rear wheels also made it much more stable than a standard four wheeled truck would have. Jaimie giggled, “It’s more manly looking too!” Greg just grinned, “Yep, a real ‘Cowboy Cadillac’!” Since we were told of a massive amount of road construction in St Louis, we opted to go the northern route which would take us west...
[We were just going in the house when Sarah flashed, “Charlie, I’m at the hospital! I think we may have a very serious problem...”] “Are you okay” “Yes, I’m fine, but you better circle the wagons! There’s this Native American doctor who is certain that you and/or Linda have ancient healing powers. AND he and his colleagues know you are friends of Greg Sanders!” “How do they know our names? Linda and I never...” Aw SHIT. We’d told the two victims we were friends of Greg’s. “Charlie, they...
We Interrupt this Vacation... July, 1985 [There was a hastily written note pinned to Greg’s shirt that read: “They’ll wake up in a few weeks. Thank Greg for me for teaching me all about you guys! I’ll have to see that Joshua guy to see what else I can learn! HAhahaha!”] I put my face right up to Greg’s and his pupils were like two piss-holes in the snow. I tried pushing him, as forcefully as I could, to open his mind to me ... NOTHING. Not even a blink and certainly no mental response. I...
[When I shook Brock’s hand it suddenly became clear. This was Sherman Leeman’s brother! Butch and Benjamin’s uncle.] I knew I had to tread cautiously, even though it didn’t appear that Brock’s powers were very strong at all. Instead of trying to hang onto his hand, I let go politely. I took a chance and flashed Mary asking her to stay in my head. It wasn’t necessary. She’d already picked up that vibe. I did keep my eyes locked on Brock, however. During my two second communication with...
Charlie POV: We met up for lunch at the restaurant in the yacht club. Everyone was there with the exception of Sarah and Willie, or Bill as I was planning on calling him. I had the feeling calling him ‘Willie’ made him uneasy. The kids seemed antsy from being cooped up in the hotel all night and this morning. When Annette suggested they go to the beach that seemed to brighten their spirits. The fact that they needed swimsuits did mute that somewhat. We discovered that there are no nude...
Bob POV: (Continued) I had to laugh when I saw the shrink-wrapped pallet sitting where our little table had been. Somebody had covered it with a large tarp to keep it as inconspicuous as possible. We’d only been here for a couple minutes when Linda, Mary, Jamie, Sarah, Joni and Sheila padded around the corner and enveloped us in hugs and passionate kisses. They were all beautiful and nekkid! And like any red-blooded males would do, we were all gawking and grinning ... and getting raging...
AN ALIEN SPACESHIP NEAR GREG’S ISLAND Bob POV: WHAT THE FUCK? One minute we’re all sitting around having a relaxing evening with our little friends, then suddenly, Mary, CJ and I are in some kind of a room in god-only-knows where! To make matters worse, it seems our telepathy and psychic powers have been nullified or taken away. Whoever our captors are they’re really pissing me off! Oh yeah, AND scaring us shitless. I’ve never felt more helpless in my whole life. I remember Ibera telling...
