Space Explorers : Samaritan Snare

Jenna clung to the encased Laura as she was carefully carried across the deck.

The sheer number of other shiny figures moving about the corridors ..... *even if I hadn't hurt my leg I wouldn't have gotten very far.*

She was about to speak when a door opened as they passed it, from within came the unmistakable sound of female pleasure, muffled, gagged, but most definitely a woman in the throes of ecstasy.
She turned her head and saw Laura looking at her, aware she was blushing furiously she whispered "I was um about to ask if it hurt ..... but ... um I think that answered my question ..."
The beautiful brunette tightened her arms around her black sheathed lover and snuggled up.

Laurestonnall didn't think her chest would be able to contain her heart much longer, for her symbiote side it was like a flood after a drought, on her human side her love for this shy, gawky, geeky girl grew by leaps and bounds.
She wanted to run, no to sprint to Sickbay, but she forced herself to maintain a slow steady pace so as not to hurt Jenna's injured leg any further.

Sararhossahn watched the two lovers as she accompanied them to Sickbay, conflict raging within her. In spite of fusing with her host memories of pain, memories of too many losses had erected barriers in her mind, barriers that were faltering under the implacable, relentless love of her host.
Then the brunette had whispered something to her transformed lover, tightened her arms around her and nuzzled up against her neck.

An emotion that Sararhossahn had believed she would never feel again welled up from the cold blackness within.

Hope.

Her pace slowed as it grew stronger and stronger, her heart aching as memories long thought lost forever of past loves and better times shone brighter in her mind.
All gone to dust and ash now ...... but .... but ....

She saw Jenna reach up to stroke her beloveds glossy black face, craned her neck to kiss her loves sealed and plugged mouth .....

The blackness shattered and the walls tumbled. The warmth of her hosts love surrounded her and suffused her, fear and grief melting away in its light.

She felt like she was walking on clouds as she hurried to catch up with the lovers .......
