The dig.
Full Disclaimer is located at the end if you want to spoil the surprise. Don't read if you're under legal age in your area! I hope you all enjoy this story and feel free to offer any criticism. I would enjoy the feedback. This story was a quick piece of work only held back by my slow typing.
"You do realize that there is no actual evidence to support this at all." Deborah's tail swished about showing how agitated she was. "Everything you have is pure speculation based on a few stone symbols, ancient stories, and some rather clever salesmanship." Donald could almost picture her lapping his bones clean at the end of this dig if nothing was produced. The Panthress had a wicked temper and she was just beginning to work herself up.
"Look, if there was nothing but pure speculation on flimsy evidence then..."
"Will you just look at where we are? It's bone dry, the result of a climatic change that would have forced any civilization into collapse, but the time frame does not fit what you are selling. The change was gradual not sudden and there was no other civilization near enough to cause any type of sudden depopulation like you posit."
Donald was very tired of the debate, "I am well aware what the samples from the drilling cores revealed. This place could support a thriving civilization. There are no weather or natural phenomenon that could account for anything close to an extinction. Despite this there are many oddities that point to the very possibility of there being some civilization living here. How else can you explain the Araman and Methrians from having records of trade. There are pottery and other physical evidence that they traded and knew of each other and yet they were thousands of miles apart. A nation apart from each of them could explain how they met and traded; and my studies into the ancient terrain and climate place this region as the highest likely site to prove just this." Alexis simply turned and stormed off unwilling to continue this heated debate.
"You know, I still find it hard that you asked her to participate in this expedition," Broman entered slowly and set down a heavy piece of equipment. Despite the heat, the muscular bull hardly looked bothered this.
"Well she is the best in the field and will prove invaluable if we do uncover something."
"You could admit you like her for more then her brains."
"That has nothing to do with this"
"Bullshit. I've seen the way you look at her when your not arguing, sorry, debating rather heatedly." Broman turned to head back out but stopped briefly, "We're out here for quite a while and when you can finally admit to yourself about how you feel towards her, things are going to remain miserable for you. I'll be back after I get the rest set up and then start getting them digging at the first location." Broman left the wolf brewing in the aftermath as he threw himself into his own tasks.
__________
The camp took shape quickly and settled into a steady routine over the next few week. Broman and his lapin helper, Patty, kept the hired help under control while Brendt and Mavis worked with the sonar ground equipment to uncover what was hiding below the surface. There work uncovered a dozen possible discoveries much to Donald's delight.
A new site was selected based on the sonar results and curiously had indication of numerous possible artifacts. Plans were made and careful digging commenced the following day.
___________
"It doesn't make any sense." Brendt scratched at his mane at the sight uncovered before them. "That's the fifth body, well if you want to call it that, we got here." Five desiccated flat bodies were marked off and photographed. "I can understand why they are dry but how in the hell did they all end up flattened like that."
"Do you think there are any bones in the skins?" Mavis's tail twitched as she stared at the strange sight. "I mean it's really hard to tell if there are or not. If not, we got one hell of a question before us, how do you remove bones and vitals from the skins like that, let alone why would you?"
"Well we got no obvious signs of cutting to the bodies, so the innards would have to come out of the orifices. Blunt force could break up the bones but that still wouldn't explain why they are all lying in an easterly direction or why there clothes are all torn up like that." Donald was pondering the strange fate of the people discovered.
"We've got another two being uncovered now in Section M." Alexis stated.
"Is this all we have?" Brendt said.
"Well the sonar indicated a rich site here and at this rate it might be," he paused and did some quick calculations, "40-50 bodies. That is an estimate and provided we only find more of these remains."
"So there all heading towards the east, everyone is missing there insides, and all are in torn clothes. Looks like we found our next hit horror movie idea." Patty giggled and tried to lighten the mood as they puzzled over the mystery.
"Let's just keep working right now and continue under normal site procedures. Note the locations and let's move one of them to the camp for study." Donald decided to break up this impromptu meeting of the minds. "I don't normally want to damage any finds but we need to figure out what happened to them. You two," he pointed to Brendt and Mavis, "might as well search east of here and see what they might have been heading towards. Heavens knows we need something to start piecing this together."
The gathering scattered as they went back to there tasks.
_____________
"Are you sure about this?" Mavis asked.
"Of course," Brendt smiled, "They'll be eating right now or are you having second thoughts?"
"No, I just want to keep this our moment even if it is a quickie." She laid back and spread herself open to him.
"We're all adults here and its been a while for us both and if they say anything, their just jealous." He kissed her before he slipped himself into her pink folds.
Donald's ears twitched as he as he heard the pair start to get louder as they fucked. He walked on over to the main tent and entered to clear his mind of the image of them pounding away. "Not hungry or tired?" Broman said and Donald looked over the body they moved.
"Still trying to figure out what happened to them all. Its 19 bodies and more to be found at this rate."
"Well if your confused by what we saw then this is not going to help at all." He gently turned the body over with gloved hands. "Our specimen here is a lovely lady as you can see here but if you travel down here we have a fine example of a proud male any lady might enjoy." The body they had picked was from the western end of the grouping, the last in the fleeing crowd as Mavis said earlier. The chest clearly showed the body to be that of a well endowed woman but the groin revealed the opposite as it also had a scrotum. "Whatever happened, the poor fellow must have lost his penis after he dried out. We haven't found it yet and come to think of it all the bodies are facing ass up."
"As if they fell face down or were pushed and killed."
"No wounds at all, except for our friends missing piece. You might as well get something to eat and wait until we cut this one open. You might also want to stop by and maybe see Patty."
"Why Patty?" Donald raised an eyebrow to Broman.
"I know you came over here cause you could hear the others. You could do well to have some relaxing fun after all this time out here and she wouldn't mind at all."
Donald started to leave irritated at the suggestion as Broman quietly spoke, "You loss. She gives a damn good blowjob too."
__________
It was a long 30 minutes as they debated about where to cut and how to do it but the end result left then speechless. The entire cavity of the body was empty leaving them with nothing more them a skin. They had figured it was possible from the first moments out in the dig site they were looking at a skin but to actually prove that was another thing.
"There is no possible way that someone did this. The bones are too hard to remove without a hole, even if they were broken up." Brendt broke the silence. "The only way is for the innards to be liquefied and seep out and anything that would do that to bone wouldn't leave the skin."
There was dead silence again.
"It's just one body," Alexis said, "the others can't..."
"Are exactly like that," Broman interupted, "All the others look just like that before we cut it open. I don't think one of them is more then skins."
"Preposterous." Donald said.
"Shall we try another one then? Look they all are flat enough to show what we see here. If this was your civilization, then they possibly had an epidemic that took them out." Broman stated bluntly.
"An epidemic that liquefies or destroys bone. I doubt that." Patty said.
"Then we better find out what could have done this. Any luck on locating what they were heading towards?" Donald turned to Brendt.
"Not yet. I'll be driving out for a day or two to check out some possible sites based on the map and the old climate data."
"Good. Hopefully something turns up."
_____________
As expected, all the bodies turned out to be in the same shape when lifted up to be packed away and examined at a later date in the museum. What was unexpected was all the female 'skins' displayed the same scrotum and missing penis. A few bodies also had larger holes at the anus resulting in more head scratching.
Another few weeks passed as they totaled 34 'skins' and Brendt continued his search until he had settled in on a possible site that looked positive.
"It's about a three day journey by foot and is cave. I found remnants of pottery inside a few hundred feet and it looks like the wall have been worked on by tools. At the very least it is worth exploring in further." He reported on a few more things and it was decided to return there and explore. Donald, Alexis, and Brendt would head back out while the rest helped pack up the discoveries to be taken to the museum.
_________
"If we had enough of the shards, I could possibly determine who made them but there mostly a jigsaw puzzle right now." Alexis said looking at the scattered fragments.
"Maybe we'll find larger fragments in further," Donald said before they started moving in. Every hundred yards they drove a spike into the wall with a glow stick on it to prevent getting lost. It proved a prudent move when they found the cave split into other passages.
Hours passed as they came to an old cave in. "Looks like you might be able to get by it there," Brendt said shining his light on a spot that appeared cleared from some past shift in the rocks. "Seems odd that this is the only cave in we encountered."
"You make it sound like this is a deliberately cause cave in," Alexis stated.
"No, just odd that any quake or movement would only affect this spot. Then again we haven't fully explored this cave system." Brendt replied as they worked there way through.
"Were only going in this way a short distance since we can't trust this to stay stable for longer exploration." Donald said as they moved on in carefully. "Good god?!" He paused before moving again.
"What is it?" Alexis asked.
"You'll just have to see for yourself." Alexis and Brendt both worked there way in as they took in the sight of more bodies. Still desiccated these ones were not as flat as the others.
"Do you think we can move one safely out of here ourselves or should we get the others?" Donald asked.
Brendt lifted at one with his gloved hands revealing it to be stable on it own. "No sudden impacts and we could get it out, but that goes against all the rules of safe handling any site."
"Well its my call and I would like to find out what is going on with all these bodies. One more break in procedure won't hurt.
It took hours of careful maneuvering but they succeeded in bringing the body of the desiccated male out and a few more to return by nightfall.
"How are things on this end?" Donald asked Mavis.
"The bulk of the crew are with the trucks heading back to the museum leaving a skeleton crew here to continue. They should be back in a week to eight days."
"Great. Gives us enough time for the body we found."
"It is a body this time right?"
"Yeah it does have more volume to it so maybe we can figure out what happened to the others providing he was part of the same people"
Mavis left to get something to eat as Donald went into the main tent with the new discovery. Patty was setting things up as he entered. "No need to worry just trying to get a jump on our friends examination tomorrow," she smiled and finished laying out the equipment.
"Good. I wonder what secrets are friend will reveal for us?" Donald walked out with Mavis to get some sleep.
____________
They all gathered together after breakfast at the tent as they once again determined how to open up the body. 10 minutes later the chest was opened and again they were at a loss for words. The chest cavity was empty of any organs and damp. Placing a sample under a microscope didn't reveal anything about what it was and it didn't conform with any known bodily fluid.
"Any easy answer is just out of the question right now," Patty said, "we just don't have enough pieces of the puzzle yet to figure this out."
"Well this body at least has a connection to the others in having no inner organs at all. The bones are intact is the only difference." Donald flashed the light again into the cavity and down the legs and up into the head. "There certainly are virus's that liquefy internal organs but the bones..."
"Are going to drive you crazy until we get some more tests on this body done in a proper lab. We might as well box him up and plan out doing more work on that other site when the rest of the crew returns." Alexis set off to do some work as most of the others dispersed to do the same. Broman and Brendt boxed up the new body before doing the same.
___________
That evening at diner, they discussed the plans on how to proceed.
"I think I will be calling it an early night," Donald said.
"Hold on a moment," Broman stopped him as Patty stepped out and came back shortly with some liquor.
"What's this for?" Donald asked as Broman handed him a glass. "Well talking with Patty, we figured we might as well drink to the discovery here."
"It's not really anything..." Donald was cut off, "other then a possible glimmer at what is waiting to be found. Sure it wasn't anything at all like we expected but it does show you are on the right path. No matter how this turns out, your work has uncovered something that will shake things up. I think that deserves having some booze."
They sat around talking and drinking for a while longer before breaking up.
__________
Donald walked back to his cot feeling a little dizzy and warm from the drinking they had done. 'Gonna feel this tomorrow' he thought as he noticed someone nearby. "Did you want something?"
"More like say something... I'm sorry about all the hassles I gave you about your theory."
"Think nothing of it. You weren't the only one."
"Still I shouldn't have acted like that..."
"You know very well were both stubborn when it comes to our work and we are never wrong. No need to apologize for that. Besides if I really wanted too, I could have left you out for another."
"And here I thought you just wanted another lady to make things easier on the eyes." She chuckled.
"You have me confused with the others." he laughed as well, "Have you been talking to Broman..."
"...about trying to relax? Yeah he mentioned I needed to relax some."
"I better get some rest with all this drinking I'll have a good hangover tomorrow."
"You don't have to sleep just yet and you still haven't told me if I am easy on your eyes."
"Look, I said you were needed for your expertise not looks."
"So you do like what you see."
"I didn't say that... not that your not beautiful, you are, but I needed you for your..." She stopped him by placing a finger on his mouth. "He was right, your just shy around us when it comes to this. If you want to sleep that's fine but I was really hoping you might enjoy something else tonight."
"Well, I might be inclined to spend some more time with you."
"Good. To be blunt I am horny and I could see you are too, even if you wouldn't say it." Alexis rubbed his crotch and Donald realized for the first time he was getting hard. "Ahhh," was all he could say before she leaned in and cut him off with a kiss.
_____________
"Hey big guy, would you be interested in having some fun again?" Patty giggled as she unceremoniously patted his crotch from behind.
"I could be if your not just drunk from our chat," he turned to face her and did a double take as she was stark naked.
"Nope, got a buzz and Brendt snatched the other bottle. He'll be plastered and cranky tommorow." She smiled at his reaction, "I just wanted to have some fun and was hoping you might return the favor."
"You damn well know I can't refuse..." Patty cut him off, "Great. I'm not drunk and want this so let's get started." She unzipped his pants as he relaxed and dropped them and his underwear. Rubbing both balls, she waited until he was sitting down before she started to slowly lick his tip and stroke him to get him stiff. Taking a breast in each hand, he rubbed and felt her up as he closed his eyes and relaxed. He moaned as she started taking his cock partly into her mouth, bobbing up and down in short slow bursts. "That's it." he said drooling little as he felt her rub his balls.
____________
"Would you mind helping me out, Mavis?" Brendt swayed as he poured another cup.
"What help do you want?"
Pounding his drink down he stood up and dropped his pants, "I got this hard cock I thought you might want to help fix." Mavis finished her own glass and tossed it aside. "Sure. I wouldn't mind a good fuck."
They stripped down fast before he swept her off her feet and onto the bed. Leaning in, he licked at her wet pussy and kissed his way up her body before he slipped his cock into her hard. He groaned as he felt her hot cunt swallow his aching cock and simply started pounding himself into her hard. "Fuck me stud, harder" Mavis moaned out as she felt his balls slapping her as he rocked her hard.
____________
Alexis lowered herself over his face and smiled as she felt his tongue start licking away at her pussy. Her aching need was starting to be satisfied and she leaned down and returning the favor as she started stroking his cock. She teased him as she breathed her warm breath over him and slowly fondled his balls. She moaned out as his finger rubbed against her clit and pressed into her as his tongue licked her wet lips.
She smiled as she started licking at the head of his cock and she felt another finger start to probe her pussy in response. It seemed as if he too want to up the ante and bring her off first but she didn't rush him. Her tongue scrapped him, making him moan in delight as he worked his own magic on her.
Slipping his head into her mouth, she suckled on him, satisfied with his moan, and let her tongue lick around his head, counting with each circle until she got to 20. Gently squeezing his balls she slipped down his length and bobbed up and down his hard cock and let her tongue lick up his shaft on each upstroke. Donald retaliated by driving his own tongue in as deep as he could as he also worked at licking up her juices.
Alexis slowed down as she felt his knot begin to bulge and realized he was starting to get close. Sliding along his length with painstakingly slow strokes, she counted to five and prepared her final trick. She reach his head again and started humming and picked up the pace. He squirmed and arched his back as she gave him the hummer and didn't relent on him. The taste of pre only confirmed his state as she kept the pace up until he groaned out and came into her mouth.
Swallowing as much as she could, she kept herself locked onto his throbbing cock as his sticky, hot cum filled her mouth and only popped off of him with a satisfied murr when he relaxed. "You better be ready for some more. I want to feel your knot in me as you make me cream."
__________
Broman's hand gripped the edge of the bed as Patty continued to give him the blowjob. He was surprised at how much better she was tonight as she had him on the edge. Everything she did had him groaning out and throbbing with a need to cum. "I'm ab...about reeeaaady to pop." he moaned out. Pulling up to his head, she circle him and stroked his cock fast with her hand until he finally grunted out in an orgasm. Patty swallowed what she could of the massive burst of cum before she slipped off of him and felt his sticky cum splatter her face and chest.
Broman groaned out as he felt his cum squirt out many more time and coated himself and the giggling Patty. Standing up she kissed him as the last few splurts of seed splashed against her. "Alright big boy, time for the real fun."
Broman couldn't say anything as he panted in the aftermath and kept himself up, so he never had a chance to stop her from guiding his massive cock to her pussy. He had told her he worried about tearing her if they tried this which is why he never bothered to do this with her. He felt her wet, and hot pussy press against him before the tip slide in. He groaned out with her at how tight it felt but was really surprised at how she kept going.
"Just perfect stud," she moaned out as she slide along the top of his hard cock. It felt so good and he felt his arousal rising again as she started to kiss his chest. It was even better then he imagined and when she told him to lay back and he did. He smiled as he watched her bob up and down on him, taking in more and more as she groaned out louder. Her pussy felt absolutely wonderful and hot until he noticed she was taking in his entire length.
Deep down he started to worry on an instinctive level despite the pleasure he felt from her tight and suckling pussy. "So... close..." she moaned out and he felt a new sensation as it felt as if his cock was being rubbed by something. With a cry of joy she shuddered as he felt her climax, her pussy clenched down on him and he saw pink fluid start to coat his groin as he felt his own hit again.
As the first shot of cum exited into her, he felt something press against his cock and groaned as he felt something push into him. Looking at her, he saw her belly ripple as he felt his cock start to swell and then his balls. Groaning out in pleasure instead of pain, he remained fixed on Patty as her breasts swelled next and her nipple split open and something snake-like exited. In his last moments of pleasure filled thoughts, he saw her tongue lengthen as well just before his own followed.
________
Mavis smiled as Brendt grunted and groaned and came for his third time. He ground his hips hard into her as his sticky seed pumped into her. "I think it's my turn to ride that big hard piece of meat again," she purred as she waited for his throbbing cock to stop cumming.
"I think I would rather feel that ass on me insssstead." Mavis looked up as she heard and now saw Broman come on over. She hadn't heard him enter but he was a sight to behold. His face and chest were splattered in something pink while his whole groin on down was coated. "Were fine on our own, Broman," she said quite unsettled as Brendt panted.
Not caring at all, Broman closed on in and gripped Brendt's waist as she felt him push into his ass as Brendt groaned out. "Sorry about that. Let me ease the pain," he said as he thrust in harder and leaned on in and started drooling on Brendt's neck. Something pink drooled onto his neck as she heard him moan out louder.
"Broman, stop this right now," Mavis panicked as she felt hot cum start to pump into her as Brendt came. "Right now, damn it, ohhhhh..." She felt a new exciting feeling hit her as his cock swelled in her pussy. She shuddered as an orgasm hit her. Her final moments felt blissful as she saw her nipples split open and felt something snake-like exit from them and her mouth.
____________
Donald grunted and groaned as he kept thrusting into Alexis hard, his knot smacking into her again and again. Gripping his waist, she pulled on him to help him pound her aching cunt harder and was finally rewarded by the feeling of it sinking into her. She moaned as she felt it enter and how he kept trying to pump her. A short time later, both of them came and shuddered in pleasure until they regained a clearer mind.
"That feels so good Donald," Alexis purred at the feel of his knot holding in the hot cum. She hugged him as he panted and waited for him to recover.
"About time he finally unloaded," Alexis opened her eyes as saw Patty standing naked near them and gasped as she saw a huge erect cock and balls. "The huge ansssswer you all wanted without any more work." Patty smiled and it sent chills down Alexis's spine. Lifting his tail up, Patty lined up and drove her cock in deep as Donald moaned out a pleasurable no.
'Thossse bassstardsss thought they could ssseal usss away with there dark artsss. They managed to dessstroy mossst of usss before sssetting that trap but thanksss to you, that ssseal was broken by carrying that husssk acrosss the ward." Whatever Patty was now rammed Donald hard as he groaned out and came again. Alexis tried desperately to pull herself free but couldn't pull his knot out of her cunt. "NO DON'T DO THIS!!!!!!!" she cried out and realized, they were literally fucked. She felt his cock start to swell before all thought was consumed by pure ecstasy.
_________
"Now remember, wear loossse fitting clothesss and try to catch new onesss alone until we have larger number of the meatsssacks. We'll gather the returning crew and have one big party before we cum into the town." All of the hosts cheered as they patiently waited for the orgy before they left.
