Code of Conduct

Finding One's True Self: Part 33

By Xan Steel

Mortora sat at her desk after the excitement was over between Rubicant and his mates, and while it was educational, it did show her one thing. That he was capable of satisfying multiple partners, and that worried her, only because she wondered if the pills she had developed would be sufficient enough to make sure he didn't breed Iris or Julyna while on the ship, much less, out of order regarding their relationship. It would be devastating if Julyna became pregnant first since Iris was his first. She also couldn't make these stronger for fear of making him permanently sterile.

She sighed at her desk while her computer displayed his DNA next to hers. This was a scary thing to see, and she didn't want to bring it up to the Captain. Both strands were an exact match, outside of subsequent changes in the RNA sequence that were denoted for hair, skin, and eyes. It scared her because of the talks they had, according to him, his species was only around one hundred thousand years old. Whereas her species was several million years old, with some history pre-dating this galaxy, well maybe not pre-dating it, but not having originated from this galaxy at all. That still had not been completely decided as of yet from the scientific community. If they did, in fact, come from his galaxy, then her species would be considered his ancient ancestors from an evolutionary standpoint due to their DNA practically being a dead match. That would be something not readily accepted if it turned out to be true.

She leaned back in her chair taking a deep breath to relax as much as she could while looking at the clock and noticed that it was the end of her shift. She got up and headed to her quarters, all the while thinking of her next test. Running it through everything she had been taught, but knowing she was about to break Medical Code of Conduct. As she walked through her door, she told the computer to seal the room from entry unless she granted permission. She stopped and stared at the tube of Rubicant's semen on her brew table next to her sofa. She slowly walked over to it and picked it up,

'Well Rubicant, are you going to successfully breed me? If so just how dangerous is this going to be? We Sylurians are only capable of creating and laying one egg during a two-cycle pregnancy. Any more than that or multiple eggs at once can kill us.' She paused in her thought as something else crept into her mind. 'I need to know though, for the Captain and Lady Iris's sake. Any more than two younglings during pregnancy for a Derlenian gives a much higher chance of killing them, and I care too much to see that happen to them.' She thought to herself as she continued to look at the tube while gently turning it over noticing its consistency. While Mortora had never mated with anyone, she had studied other species semen samples before, just not in the manner she was about to study Rubicant’s. After a moment she put the tube back down on the table and went over to the tall mirror and looked herself over.

She removed her uniform and began to look herself over. She stared at her greenish-blue skin as she ran her hands down her body, her yellow eyes betrayed her nervousness, as her soft flexible spines, that lined the left and right side of her head trembled gently.

It was true that she was reaching the age of elder, but she also made sure she kept herself in shape. A slender body shape, with a pair of shapely mounds that would in any other species, represent breasts except they never carried milk, that came from her cloaca. Her thick tail that laid over her shapely rump as it reached the floor and whipped about when she moved it. She gently rubbed her cloaca in front of the mirror, while spreading it open to get a better look inside. She noticed that it was already wet with anticipated. She stared at her dual clitoris, with the upper one being the younglings feeding nipple. This is when she finally paid attention to the one emotion she was ignoring for many cycles. That feeling of wanting a family, and a loving mate.

Her nervousness increased when she thought about injecting Rubicant's semen into her. Nervous because she was worried that this experiment would kill her, but also because if she survived, she would lose her career in the Alliance, having a youngling to raise alone, and possibly the loss of a friend. Her heart raced at the thought of Rubicant doing the deed himself, and maybe that was a deeper seeded reason than she realized, as he was the only male she had ever gotten close to outside of her work.

She sighed as she walked back over to her brew table and sat down on her sofa. She picked up the tube off the table and brought it closer to her as she lifted and spread her legs while placing her feet on the edge of the table. She stopped before putting it in her cloaca, as she saw herself shaking pretty badly. 'I can't believe I'm about to impregnate myself with alien semen.’ She sighed, ‘He's cute that's for sure, just wish I had met him first.' She thought while gently inserting the tube into her cloaca and then her wet vagina. She began working herself over while imagining him actually mating with her, because of the way he sniffed and touched her today really brought out a side of her that hadn't been nurtured. Even though he was exploring something he never had before, and he didn't mean anything by it.

It didn't take long for her to reach her peak as she orgasmed all over her hand and the tube. She then pushed it in as deep as she could and pushed a small button on the bottom, while feeling it inject his sperm deep into her body. Working herself over like that, ensured that she would ovulate, which would increase her chances of getting pregnant. Now all she had to do was wait about ten days to test herself and see if it worked.

Once she was finished, she got up and went over to her family's jewelry cabinet, while it was small and unassuming it did house one important piece of jewelry she would need. She opened it up and took out a small round shiny choker that had a large clear jewel in the center of it. This antique piece would block Derlenian telepathy so that they couldn't read her thoughts, and what she had just done until she was ready to answer for it.

***

She was on edge for the last nine days, while not wanting anyone to find out what she did just yet. Every day though she would examine herself, but so far there was no new development in her uterus. When the tenth day came, and she saw nothing she started to relax a bit, thinking that their DNA wasn't compatible after all, which in itself was a good thing. She wouldn't have to tell anyone what she did and lose her career.

Things, however, took a dark turn six days later as she woke up vomiting and unable to keep anything down food wise. She went to medical and scanned her uterus, and what she saw terrified her beyond words. Six embryos had embedded themselves into her uterine wall.

She sat down now knowing her life was going to end due to this experiment because once the embryos embedded themselves, there was no way to remove them without killing them. Even though it would take one cycle for the shell of the egg to form before the fetus started developing in the next cycle. Yeah, she could use a fetal transport and place them in stasis but doing so would cause internal bleeding in her uterus, which couldn't be stopped because her uterus creates an anticoagulant to prevent the blood from clotting. Thus, making sure that the egg, or in her case eggs, received all of her nutrients. She wiped her eyes clear of the few tears that had started forming and took her choker off while reaching out to Julyna. 'Captain, can I see you in medical please?'

'I'm on my way.'

Ten minutes passed as Julyna walked through the door and into Mortora's office. "You don't look so good doctor, what's wrong?" She asked as she saw the image on a screen behind her.

"You and Iris must stop mating with Rubicant, as the pills I've been giving him are going to fail, and it's likely to be disastrous for the both of you until Dr. Graphra can look at him and figure out what to do." Mortora finished.

Julyna looked at her and then the screen again and then back to her, "What did you do?" Mortora hesitated at first. "Doctor?" Julyna said in a slightly upset tone as it looked as though Mortora was on the verge of a breakdown.

"You remember when I took a sample of his semen after he mated with Iris here in medical?" She nodded as Mortora's voice became squeaky. "I... I impregnated myself with it." Julyna was stunned beyond words. "I did this because I was concerned for your wellbeing. If he impregnates you, you are going to wind up carrying more than just two younglings at once." She finished while hiding another reason she did it from her.

Julyna honestly didn't know what to say as she paced around the room, unsure how to feel. She stopped and looked at Mortora her tone was a mix of sadness and anger, "So let me get this straight. We can't mate with him anymore, because of the possibility that we might carry more than the usual amount of young, but you get first rights to carry his young? Do you have any idea how Iris is going to feel, much less Rubi?"

Mortora spoke up again, her voice a bit stronger as she stood up, "No offense Captain, but your lives are more important to me than your relationship. His sperm is more potent than any other male in this galaxy. I mean hell, after finally seeing medical information on his species from their computers, their males push out a thousand times more sperm than our males." She said as tears ran down her cheeks.

Julyna noticed it, "Why are you crying?"

Mortora's voice showed her anger, but not at Julyna, "I screwed up, I know this and can't apologize for it, but it's not a simple screw up." It was at this point her voice broke a bit as she shed more tears. "I'll be dead before the eggs inside my uterus form."

Julyna's eyes went wide her voice gave away her surprise. "Eggs, as in plural for many?" Mortora nodded. "How many?" Julyna's voice was more demanding.

"Six." Mortora squeaked.

Julyna was flabbergasted, but she wasn't the only as Daniel came from around the corner into the office. Mortora had a look of horror on her as Julyna saw him walk in with an angry look as he stared at her.

He spoke quietly, "I trusted you, and this is how you repay me?! I thought you were my friend and understood my need for privacy." He said with an angry tone.

Mortora pleaded with him, "Rubicant I'm sorry, but I had no other way to test this."

His voice to just under a shout, "You didn't ask though, you just took!" Mortora just hung her head, as he spoke again in a calmer tone, "If you had asked, we could have talked about it before you went through with this. We could've worked something out or made an agreement with how to handle this. Not to mention I find it hard to believe that this was the only test you could perform on my sperm."

It was at this point that both Julyna and Daniel felt her mind lockup tight, preventing them from looking in. Daniel just shook his head and left in anger, as Julyna spoke calmly as she went over to Mortora, "You broke his trust, as well as mine, and very likely Iris's. Our lives weren't the only reason you did this, is it?" As Julyna pulled her into a hug which made her break down as she began sharing her memory of that day.

***

Daniel did his best to contain his anger until he got back to his quarters, as he needed to be alone for now and just think. Once he got into his ship in Cargo Bay 3, he went to the storage room where the punching bag was and put the gloves on. This was his regular daily work out, and slowly learning how to box, but in this instance, he needed a safe way to release his anger so he could think straight.

Once he felt like he had calmed down enough to think. He removed the gloves and headed to his bed room and sat on the edge of the bed to think or would until he heard a melodic voice in his head.

'Ruubiiii.'

'Iris sweetie, I'm not really in the mood for company right now.'

A few minutes passed as he heard her again. 'Oh, Ruuuuuubiiiii.'

He sighed in defeat as he felt her handpaws on his back gently rubbing as the bed shifted with her body movement. She gently licked and nuzzled the back of his neck, one of his weak spots that always relaxed him, and it was working. She moved around to the front and gave him a deep and impassioned kiss. He noticed that she was completely naked, as she gently removed his shirt and began to lick and kiss her way down his body.

'What's gotten into you that’s made you so affectionate today?' He questioned her mentally in an amused tone.

She straddled his lap on the bed and took his hand and placed it on her naked belly, lightly giggling. 'Silly choice of words Hun, especially when you've given me an unexpected and precious gift.'

He looked at her and then her belly and back up at her again, as a stunned yet excited look came over him. "Are you... Pregnant?" He asked as she nodded to him, as his mood completely changed to a happy one while pulling her into a tight embrace. She licked the top of his head in comfort as she began to explain things vocally.

"I know the doctor impregnated herself with your semen, but she did not take away my rights as your first. I discovered I was carrying four days earlier than she was. I understand your feelings on her taking and not asking, but she did have two reasons for doing so. One is the truth, that is a concern for our well-being and has been for a long while, the chance of death increases when we carry more than two young. The second reason was only recently after she enhanced your ability to smell, and you sniffed her body. From my view, it looked like you were adding her to our relationship without letting Julyna or myself know until she told me what had happened, and I realized you weren't trying to mate with her." she explained.

He looked at her, "I guess she took it the wrong way." He said.

Iris continued, "More like she got jealous because you are the only male to ever touch her in that way, even though it was completely innocent on your part."

He sighed, "And now she's going to die." He buried his head into her breasts as he began to think. He really didn't want her to die, learn her lesson sure, but death wasn't the way to learn something.

"You know..." Iris began as she continued to lick the top of his head in comfort. "I can save her."

He looked back at her again, "How?"

She smiled, "The GrandMaster did teach me a technic in removing embryos long before any female comes into her second trimester. I could them put them in stasis and send them off to a medical center to help those that can't get pregnant."

Hearing that made him feel better about the whole thing. "I should apologize for acting uncaring towards her," he said.

Iris pushed him down on the bed and spoke mentally. 'In a little while, as I need you, sweetie.'

'I see.' He said with a smile.

A few hours later, Iris had Mortora come into medical, and as she walked in she saw Julyna, Iris, and Rubicant there waiting for her. Mortora's emotional level started to fall seeing them. She went over to them while trying to keep herself composed, as Julyna was the first to speak, "Having talked it over with the Admiral, he is recommending a General Discharge. Meaning you would be a civilian on this ship with no rank or title." Mortora nodded in understanding and expected this to happen. "For now though, I need you to continue working here until we reach a Star-Base and can requisition a new head doctor. At which point you will be given transport home to be with your family."

Mortora nodded again as Daniel came over to her. Her nervousness showed more as he approached her, as he pulled her into an embrace which caused her to flinch as she expected to be hit for what she did to him. Instead, he spoke very calmly to her, "I'm upset at what you did, but I'm also sorry for being uncaring towards you." She then wrapped her arms around him tightly as she began to openly weep.

They separated as Iris came over. "Well, it seems as though your conclusion about the pills failing was justified."

Mortora looked at her before it clicked, "You're pregnant?"

Iris nodded and then continued, "I'm going to save you, but the GrandMaster still wants to punish you for this act."

"What do you mean save me?" Mortora asked as a set of tears fell. "It's not possible once the embryos embed themselves into my uterine wall." She said in a nervous voice.

Iris began to explain, "The GrandMaster thought me a technic that I'm going to use to remove and store five of your embryos until they can be transplanted into other females." She finished before continuing mentally as she took her over to a bio-bed. 'The sixth one you are going to carry and raise alone, and you are never allowed into a mateship until the youngling is of adult age. That is your full punishment.' Mortora replied that she understood, and that wouldn't be a problem as she was considered an outcast due to her skin and eye color in Sylurian society, but she also asked if she could take full responsibility for all the eggs and lay them over time. Iris told her that she would talk to the GrandMaster and inform her later.

Iris had Mortora lay down on a bio-bed, and then took off her uniform pants while setting her legs up in stirrups and secured them in place. Iris then had Daniel stand on her left, and Julyna on her right, as she placed a handheld stasis device between her legs as Iris stood between her legs. If Mortora could visibly blush, she would be with having Rubicant seeing her lower half naked.

Iris spoke, "Now I need you to completely relax Mortora, as this is likely going to take a few hours."

Mortora nodded as she laid her head back and tried to relax as Iris inserted a small tube-like device into her cloaca and then connected the other end to the handheld stasis device. Iris spoke calmly, "There is likely to be some discomfort, all I ask is that you remain calm and relaxed." Mortora nodded in response.

Iris took Rubicant's hand and Julyna's handpaw in her own and then had them do the same as Iris began to concentrate. She mentally linked to them so she could borrow their mental energy when she needed too. Daniel had to admit, this was a unique experience for him. He was able to see through her and what she was doing. He didn't offer any suggestions as he wasn't quite sure what she was doing, except that he could see the embryo slowly and gently dislodge from the uterine wall, and then watched the vein under it stretch a bit, then suddenly split in the middle and watched both ends tie off.

Daniel then watched it slowly move into the tube-like device. He continued to watch as she moved one after the other and by the fourth embryo started to feel Iris pulling his energy. It was gentle at first until she began to pull more from him as she began working the fifth embryo. He could feel both of his legs trembling from the loss of energy and feel like jello. He tried his best to stay with it, but just as she dislodged it, he passed out and fell to the floor. Julyna gave a good portion of her remaining energy to Iris and then tended to Daniel.

***

Daniel woke up a few hours later with a raging headache, the worst he had ever had in his thirty years of living, or sixty cycles by their calendar timeline. He shifted gently on the somewhat hard mattress of the bio-bed in medical, as a handpaw gently stroked his cheek. He stirred and moaned softly as he opened his eyes.

"Good morning sleepy head," Julyna said with a smile sitting next to him.

He turned to look at her while gently nuzzling her handpaw, "What happened, was it successful?"

Julyna nodded to him before speaking. "Yes, the transfer was successful, and you passed out because the drain on your mental energy was too much for your first time. Mortora is currently resting in her quarters and Iris is sleeping in yours." She finished as Daniel reached up and touched her cheek,

"How are you holding up?" he asked.

"A little tired, but I'm all right for the most part. It helps to be mentally stronger," Julyna replied.

Daniel turned his head to get a better look at her, and about to ask that all important question, until she answered it for him. "You're wondering if I'm pregnant as well." She said in a statement while he nodded to her. She shook her head, "No, and while that is a good thing, it also makes me sad to some degree." She said while leaning in to kiss him on the cheeks.

"Altair is your first, so it's a good thing for him," Daniel replied while moaning loudly from the pain.

"Your head is still hurting?" He nodded as she went to get up to get him something when he held her back. "What it is Hun?" He gently pulled her towards him and then brought the foreheads together as he blended minds with her. During the blending he reassured her of how much he loved her, not to mention that Julyna was able to lessen the cause of the pain, thus turning a raging pain to a dull roar. She leaned back and kissed him sweetly, as she went to get him a mild pain reliever.
