"Y-You! Do you know how much trouble you've..." Sero roared as he was forced to march down the hall, flanked by two electro spear-wielding guards, at least until the dark unicorn walking in front of him swiftly turned and shoved a muzzle on his face.

"Now, now, dragon, mind your tongue, wouldn't want anyone to hear you say something you'll regret," the unicorn cooed smoothly, his eyes lidded as his expression became cool as ice. "You're just lucky my father has given me permission to take you for some fun now, aren't you?"

At that, the two aniubian guards either side of the dragon chuckled, like bullies mocking a school kid as, with a snap of his fingers, the father of Sero's baby had the mag-cuffs the dragon was bound in start to force a new march.

Urg, I hate these things! Sero inwardly hissed, his blood starting to boil as his wings ruffled and the tight cuffs forced his legs to move. The nerve of this guy! He's got one hot ass, but he knocked me up, now all he seems to care about is taking me prisoner!?

He'd no idea what had become of Reed and Nyx after they'd been levitated out of the throne room, that was just another detail his 'lover' was neglecting to tell him as the dark unicorn led him up into the lavishly decorated accommodation halls above the club.

I just hope the two of them are okay. Reed's an idiot, but surely Nyx can handle herself. The dragon thought, feeling fine carpet under his talons as the four of them rounded a corner. Then again, she is the idiot who got us into this mess, so who knows anymore?

As Sero's ideas went to war in his mind with as much ferocity as his kicking baby, he neglected to notice the odd glances he was getting from his armed escorts.

"Hey, look at him, you'd think he was just fat," one masked unicorn stated, nodding at Sero's squirming tummy. "Maybe think he'd eaten one live Grummite too many."

"Please, he looks knocked up." The female guard on his opposite flank droned. "Looks like even the kid wants out of his scaly ass though, look at it kick."

My scaly what? By the stars, if I wasn't cuffed I'd... Sero's angry thoughts were cut off by a snort from the male guard.

"Eh, well, if I somehow ever end up like that, shoot me. Getting pregnant is a mare's job," the unicorn added with a shrug.

"You end up like that and I'll keep you locked up, those kids are worth a fortune to the federation," the female countered, then moved to poke Sero's belly. "You hear that little guy, you'll make us rich, just gotta bake and wait for daddy to shit you out!"

Why, I'll kill... Sero snorted smoke behind his muzzle, squirming with a jolt as his restraints forced him to march on. They lay one hoof on my kid and I'll eat them, see how they like it!

"Quiet, the both of you," the unicorn in the lead suddenly stated, regal voice sharp as a whip crack as he stood stiff and pivoted to face the bickering pair. "You're not paid to berate our prisoners," he added, then waved them off with a hand. "Now, be gone, I'll take him into my chamber alone."

The two guards exchanged odd glances, before they nodded and took a step back with a slow bow.

"Sure thing, boss," the male was quick to agree, before snickering. "You have fun in there."

The eyes of Sero's mysterious lover narrowed, his ears flat as it were almost easy to imagine angry smoke rising from his sour expression.

"Yeah, have all the fun you want, Sir," the female snickered, barely covering up her smirk as she turned, and the pair of them marched off.

Their retreating laughter echoed down the hall a moment later, yet before Sero could glance back, his dark lover snapped his fingers. The door to the room before them slid open with a whoosh, and as if on cue, the dragon's cuffs marched him through.

"Those fools, treat me like a laughingstock!" hissed the stallion as he strode through after Sero, and the door slid closed behind him. "I'll have their heads someday."

Why do I get the feeling that's an empty threat? Sero thought, seeing that the room around him was dark, save for a few holo-screens, a neon-rimmed bed, a filtered window leading out to the turbulent sky, and a few candles. What, why do I care about that, I have to get out of here!?

"Regardless, now I have you, I..." The unicorn began, lifting a hand to delicately remove Sero's muzzle, only to be abruptly silenced as the dragon lunged at him, pinning him to the wall. "Gah, what are you doing, you oaf!?"

"You... You... I'll..." Sero panted, eyes narrowing like daggers as he snorted smoke. "You knocked me up, this is your damn baby that caused all this trouble. I don't even know your name and you've caused me so..."

Before the dragon could shove his cuffed knuckles into the unicorn's chest too hard, the mysterious equine clicked his fingers, and like a magnet, Sero's cuffed limbs were sucked to the center of the room and he was dragged to the floor. He thrashed and kicked more than his baby, yet it was no use, and he became pinned in a spread-eagle star over the room's central carpet, as tight knots of force bound his wings.

"It's Sen, if you must know," the unicorn introduced, catching his breath and straightening his regal clothes like some fancy date after an embarrassing fall. "And I'm fully aware that's my foal in there. But do you want to tell the whole station while you're at it!?"

There was a sudden outburst of anger from Sen as Sero finally noted the name of his mysterious lover. Not only that, but the odd way the unicorn seemed to rub his own tummy too, as if worried.

Huh... Maybe he's really just empathetic? He reasoned, before he narrowed his eyes once more and his snout wrinkled into a toothy snarl. What am I thinking, he's got me chained up like some BDSM display!

"What, would daddy not approve of that? Here I thought you were just a prince of the club!" Sero snapped, and Sen offered only a deadpan look as he added.

"I am a prince of the club, you idiot! Just not in the way you're thinking!" the unicorn declared as he strode around the room, reaching for a cigarette, before seemingly (and very reluctantly) deciding not to smoke. "I'll inherit this chain from my father, that's if he's no idea I fathered a sick hybrid!"

"Well, it's good to know where you stand on our kid's future then! Guess I can cut you out of the deal from now on?" Sero spat as he tugged his invisible restraints and his belly writhed and wriggled. "Gah... This... Let me go!"

"Please, you came here to get rid of that thing. Don't act like you care," Sen countered with a dismissive wave of his hand as he moved over to the window. "Besides, I let you out and I'll doom you to... Well, my father's plan, of course."

"What, so he can breed me like a damn cow?" Sero asked, becoming sicker with the idea. "I'll find a way out of here before then, I have three years!"

"Ah, I see you found out about that little detail." Sen pouted. "Three years stuck like thi..." He suddenly gestured to the dragon. "I mean, like that!"

"Don't act like it's your issue! It's not inside your body!" Sero shot back, and Sen pressed a hand to the window, glaring into the storm. "See, you can't even look at me, worst tail I ever picked up!"

"Don't act like it's not my issue?" Sen asked through gritted teeth as he hunched over and pressed a hand to his belt. "My issue!? That's my kid and..."

The unicorn trailed off with a low growl as he shifted to glare at Sero. Meanwhile, the dragon met his lover's eyes with just as much intensity.

"What is it, pretty boy, I was too much for you? Looks like you were too much for me, not afraid to admit it this time!" Sero shot, struggling before he added. "But no way am I letting your creepy family hurt this kid!"

"But that's just it, my father will hurt that kid and..." Sen began, then sighed again as he finally turned to face the pinned dragon in full, and added. "Well, it's not the only..."

The dark equine, perfectly silhouetted by the eldritch flashes from the swirling storm outside, pulled his robes and thin belt away, and just like that, the hologram over his midsection flickered and died.

Oh... Well, that complicates things...

"Y-you... You're pregnant too!" Sero called and Sen waddled over to him fast as he could, sticking the muzzle back on.

"No, I ate too much grass! Yes, I'm pregnant, idiot!" the unicorn hissed as Sero caught a glimpse of his lover's far larger belly, a baby kicking like mad under his taut, black coat. "It's a shock your damn cock didn't knock up the fucking bed that night, now keep it down!"

Sero's sharp eyes met Sen's, mumbling his acknowledgment behind his muzzle as he nodded. The equine nodded in return, before he slowly withdrew and gently took the muzzle with him.

"Now, dragon. As you may have guessed, my father will not hesitate to take every baby with even a hint of dragon lineage, and ransom it to the federation, but..." Sen was cut off by a sharp kick as he snorted. "I... I have an offer... We help each other."

He's pregnant, I knocked him up... But he's not a dragon, what do I have, super cum or something? Sero's mind was racing, but outwardly he put on a calm face as he added.

"You wouldn't care if you didn't want to get away from daddy, so why should I?" he hissed, and Sen grunted as he slid closer, clicking his fingers and causing the force grips around Sero to become holographic chains. "What are you doing I... Ack... I should never have told you I was into this!"

"Yes, well, a lot of information slipped out that night, love." Sen took a neat seat between the dragon's spread hind legs, rubbing his belly as it kicked almost in time with Sero's.

"As for my father, I don't just need to get away from him, I need to get into federation care," Sen began, resting a hand where his foal kicked hard. "This thing is already huge, labor will kill me without them, you don't want that right?"

The stallion gave a coy smirk, only to wince at a sudden squirm and a loud belly gurgle.

"Oof... O-once it's sorted, I'll come back here and father will be none the wiser," he forced.

"Oh, so you get to escape and get a great life, sure," Sero countered with a snarl. "What bonus do I get?"

Sen grinned, his wriggling belly rubbing the restrained dragon's as he leaned over to slip the muzzle back on, and with a nod, Sero's chains grew tighter.

"I'll help you get out and..." the unicorn leaned back and held out a hand, into which a crop from a hatch under the floor levitated. "I'll make this moment feel so much better than the night I fucked your tight ass, sexy!"

Oh, by the stars, I should never have asked! Sero thought with a timid gulp as Sen's fangs flashed. He's gone from stoic guard, to moody father, and now he's just like the guy who seduced me, talk about mood swings!

That thought was the last thing to cross Sero's mind, however; as Sen ran a claw over his scaly ass, and thwacked the crop against the opposing flank.

"Gah... Umph!" the dragon grunted through his muzzle, feeling his cock start to poke free as his belly kicked and squirmed.

"Oh, you like that, dirty boy?" Sen hissed, voice dripping with seduction as he rubbed his belly. "I need you to help me with this issue you stuffed up my ass, so I'm going to keep going until you beg, then maybe I'll consider helping you!"

But he's the one who needs my help too... Ack! The dragon could hardly concentrate as Sen left a red hand mark on his butt. Arg... He's a demon!

"Hmmm, maybe I need more, wonder if I can still stick my cock in there while we're both so round?" Sen mused, rubbing his chin as he lightly ran a claw over Sero's belly. "My, my, my foal's sibling is kicking you just as much, they're both so strong."

He doesn't have to remind me of... Fake chains rattled as Sero saw the red tip of Sen's cock between their wriggling bulks, just as his own member rose like a fleshy tower to press against the hard base of his kicking tummy. Oh, fuck...

"Shame you can't beg with that muzzle," Sen taunted, awkwardly getting into position as his belly was smooshed against Sero's, and the dragon felt a canine dick poke his tight ass. "Let's see if I can't fuck it out of you!"

Oh, that cock, it still feels so good! Sero was lost in the same fantasy as he had been that night, as Sen teased him. Urmph... But... Arg... With these bellies it's... They're kicking so hard!

"Also feels like a punishment if you ask me, you fucked this little demon into me, made me blow up like a damn balloon, and left me terrified I'd burst," Sen rumbled, throwing off the rest of his robes, but not before he pulled out a kind of lotion from his pocket. "The thing's stretched my skin so tight already I need to stick this on every hour!"

He... Urg, stars curse him... That huge bump is kinda hot! Sero thought, as against his better judgment, and with the feeling of his lover's cock poking at his ass once again, he couldn't help but give in. So he can fuck me this once, but after that, he helps me escape!

The dragon couldn't believe he was giving in, nor could he believe that he was actually developing a serious fondness for his bloated body, and that of his dark lover. Yet as he kicked and wriggled against his restraints, his baby squirming just as much as it seemed to play with the equine belly shoved against it, Sero moaned behind his muzzle.

His foal is so strong... But it's so big for his slim body... His figure... Arg, Sero, focus, this is not time to get so horney! There was a conflict larger than that between the federation and Phyion Empire going on in the dragon's mind as Sen elegantly lathered both his, and the dragon's belly, in smooth lotion.

"This will make your girth nice and sleek. As much as I hate this incessant bump, I'd love to feel it roll against yours, sexy." The unicorn gave a wink, as Sero snorted and shuddered. "I see you like it too."

The unicorn gave his dragon another thwack with the crop, his cock slipping into Sero's ass just a little as he purred like a happy kitten.

"Oh, no wonder you got me in bed so easily... You're such a sexy coat of scales." Sen was like a foal with a crush in seconds, his mood seeming more turbulent than the storm outside as he leaned over to kiss the dragon, only for his temperament to flip again. "Arg, see what you do to me, I can hardly focus, I want to fuck you and kill you!"

Great, he may as well be bipolar at this point, what did my hormones do to him? Sero wondered, looking at their kicking bellies pressed together like firm beach balls. His hips are wider too... Urg, this guy is my only hope of escape, seriously?

"Oh, by the nine-tailed horse, I'm going to just fuck you and blow off this steam!" Sen declared as he planted a sly kiss on Sero's muzzle and leaned back, just about ready to shove his cock all the way in. "And this time you're the only one who's going to take it up the..."

"Prince Sen, this is site security. We are detecting a malfunction in your room's monitoring system. Possibly a delayed reading response, can you confirm?" an authoritative voice rumbled from several speakers in the room, and Sen's face fell flat as the steamy mood died.

"Damn it, they found out!?"

At that, and with the lustrous atmosphere gone, Sero took full control of his horny brain, shoved all ideas of sex into a vault at the back of his mind, and slammed the mental bulkhead shut, welding it closed for good measure. In the same instant, he outwardly kicked his rear legs with all his might, breaking the illusion of chains as the force restraints shuddered. His hind claws struck Sen hard enough to send him tumbling back, where he landed with a soft thud on the carpet.

That's enough of this! I'm not getting into kinky BDSM sex while I'm stuck here and my friends are in danger! It felt like the first sensible thought the dragon had come up with all day, but with a blast of pent up fire, he snorted his muzzle off. This stupid pony is going to help me get out of here!

"What are you doing, you could have killed me!?" Sen declared as he awkwardly sat up, rubbing his belly. "This stupid thing feels like it could shatter my hips like glass!"

"Will you just shut up? You've got three years before it's going to pop out, so can it!" Sero shot back as he tugged on his restraints. "Now, let me free, take me to my friends, and we'll all get out of here!"

Sen gave an indignant snort as he delicately brushed himself off and wobbled to his hooves, shuddering like he'd throw up as his baby gave a strong kick.

"You think I'll just do that for you? You were supposed to give me a sexy BDSM show!" he declared, jabbing the crop at the pinned dragon accusingly. "I just want to be free of this stupid pent up..."

"You're not thinking straight. I have no idea what that kid is doing to your body, but it has you sobbing one moment, and ready to kill me the next. So how about you just forget the antics until we're free, huh?" Sero reasoned, as Sen sniffed and wiped away pouty tears. "You heard the intercom, they know something's up."

"I put a false program in the monitoring system, took them long enough to figure out its pattern," Sen admitted with a sigh. "Fucking father always wants to keep an eye on me!"

"Then, like I said, come with..." Sero felt his limbs go slack and flop at his side with a thud as Sen waddled over and hit a button on the wall, deactivating the restraints.

"Fine, we get out of here now. But only because they're bound to come up here looking soon," the unicorn hissed as he shuffled back over, took off Sero's cuffs, and grumbled under his breath. "You were supposed to beg..."

Sero shot to his feet as fast as his heavy belly would allow, taking Sen by his shoulders as he forced the unicorn back against a wall.

"Gah, you said rough time was over!" Sen yelped, yet a least a small part of him seemed to enjoy the treatment.

"You are going to promise me one thing, Sen," Sero began long and slow, holding his lover with one claw as the other rubbed both their bellies. "All this... It makes me want to give this kid a good start so, you're going to promise the same for yours!"

"Are you serious?" Sen grumbled, yet one hard look from the dragon and he glanced down at their swollen tummies, then sighed. "Fine, I guess they are our kids."

"Good," Sero added firmly as he let go and moved to look for something to wear. "Now get dressed, we're breaking out of this station."

********

"Captain, where are you taking that dragon?" asked a guard stationed by one of the club's storerooms as Sen walked up with Sero in cuffs once more. "I thought he was to be in your chambers..."

"Change of plan, I'm taking him back to the cells," replied the guard captain, his belly now masked by a hologram once more. "Also decided to do a weapons check while I was on my way there. Can't be too careful with two dragon chicks under our protection."

"I guess that makes sense," the guard mumbled, handing his electro-blaster to Sen for inspection. "Haha, can think of a few gangs that would want to steal..."

Sen rotated the weapon in his hand for a second, before he snapped his fingers and the storeroom door behind the guard whooshed open.

"Yes, quite the elusive asset," Sen muttered as the guard blinked in confusion. "That's why I needed your gun." At that, the captain shoved the guard into the storeroom and the door slid shut, locking as the confused equine pounded on the other side.

"Here, hope you know how to use this," Sen called as he tossed the gun to Sero, who's loose cuffs fell off as he caught it. "Would surprise me."

"I can shoot, smart ass," the dragon retorted as Sen retrieved his own sidearm. "Better gun discipline than you in your crazy state."

"I can keep my composure around these fools," the unicorn assured with a sniff as he led on. "The cells are this way, stay close."

The next few minutes of sneaking around, dodging guards and patrols with a heavy belly full of kicking baby, were some of the tensest of Sero's life. Yet with Sen's guidance, they soon came upon a heavy cell block, with two guards stationed either side.

"Your friends should be in one of those cells," Sen informed as he nodded to the clinically-lit corridor lined with thick, shielded doors. "I hope you know how we're going to get out after that."

"You said there was an airlock nearby, right?" Sero asked, and Sen nodded. "Then I'm sure Nyx will think of something, she seems like the resourceful type."

"Putting your faith in the scrapper that led you into my father's trap, how genius," Sen droned, earning a jab from Sero.

"It's her ship. You got a better idea, I'm all ears?" the dragon responded, and as Sen shrugged, Sero nodded to the cells. "Okay, now go take care of those guards."

At that, the dark unicorn captain stood up straight and strode out into the hall. The two masked guards glanced at one another, seeming unsure, before Sen finally reached them and spoke up.

"The two of you are both relieved, head to the barracks," he ordered simply.

"Sure, but... Where are our replacements, captain?" the two questioned and Sen rolled his eyes.

"They'll be here soon, now just go, that's an order," the dark unicorn insisted and the pair shrugged, looking just about ready to depart when a harsh voice called out.

"Wait, don't listen to him, the captain's a traitor!" It took Sero a mere second to turn and see the bedraggled guard Sen had locked in the storeroom sprinting down the corridor. "Stun him, now!"

The dragon saw the split second the eyes of his baby's father went wide. In the same instant, he leveled his own rifle at the panting unicorn sprinting down the hall and hit him with a stun bolt. The lone guard hit the floor like a sack of flour. Meanwhile, Sen was posed between the crackling barrels of the other two guards, seconds from being stunned himself.

"Hey, horn heads!" Sero called, distracting the pair as he took a shot at the one on the left, the crackling bolt narrowly missing Sen.

The preoccupied guard fell to the floor in a twitching heap, as Sen seized the moment and whipped the other guard in the head with the butt of his pistol, blasting him with a stun bolt as he slipped to the floor.

"Good save," the captain muttered as Sero waddled up beside him, the pair looking down at the two unconscious guards. "Thanks."

"Don't mention it, now, let's get this over with," Sero muttered, stepping over the fallen unicorns with Sen close behind.

"Sure, there'll be more guards on the way soon," Sen acknowledged as he led the dragon right to the cell containing the others. "They should be in this one right..."

The heavy door slit open with a swoosh and a hiss of steam as the protective force field deactivated. Yet the moment it did so, both Sen and Sero stared in bewilderment.

"Oh... Hi..." Reed muttered in utter shock as he jumped off Nyx in a flash and fastened his trousers. "Did not expect to see you here, Sero."

"Urm... What were you two doing in here?" Sero asked awkwardly, jabbing a claw at Nyx as she struggled to slip back on her clothing. "Tell me you weren't..."

Did I just walk in on them!? The pair's looks said it all, and Sero rolled his eyes. Reed's hardly one to chastise me for sleeping around!

"What, you think it's one of the last times you'll see a guy," Nyx asked with a shrug, glancing at Reed. "Plus, he's charming, in a way."

The cat went red as a tomato, an awkward grin blooming under his fur as his ears folded back. Nevertheless, he took a swift step back, doing his best not to stare at Nyx's round features as the hyena loosely stuffed her huge tits into her bra and looked to Sero.

"What have you got to say anyway, bringing that guy here!?" she asked, jabbing a paw at Sen. "Isn't he like their guard captain or something."

"I'm more than that, mutt, I'm a prince!" Sen retorted, pressing a hand to his chest. "And I'm here to help you get out, so show some respect!"

"What did you just call me, horn head?" Nyx growled, as she barged her way over to the unicorn, wiggling belly almost knocking him to the floor. "Last I checked you were the ones who were half ass, half canine!"

"No, not now!" Sero suddenly intervened, thrusting a flared wing between the two as Sen hissed and Nyx growled. "He's here to help, and he's coming with us, so just get along!"

"What!?" Reed and Nyx exclaimed in perfect synchronization, and Sero huffed.

"Yes, that's right. Now, Nyx, can you get the ship around to here?" the dragon asked as the hyena and lynx retrieved their confiscated items from a locker by the door. "There's an airlock just a few doors down."

"Sure, Gizmo could get it here, it will cause a raucous though," Nyx responded, as she spoke into a small device she applied to her wrist. "Gizmo, this is the captain, bring the ship to my coordinates as fast as you can and stand by for pick up."

"Roger that, captain. I'll get as close as I can!" chimed the voice of the ship's AI, and at that, Sero swore he heard a distant screeching of metal somewhere far below the club.

"He'll end up bringing half the damn hanger with him!" Reed exclaimed, but Nyx shrugged.

"Best these stupid horn heads deserve, so much for getting free of this belly," the hyena muttered, rubbing her bump as she glanced at Sero.

"We'll cross that bridge later, we have years," the dragon responded, as he led the three of them back out into the halls, Nyx retrieving one of the fallen guard's weapons. "Now which way, Sen?"

"This way, the airlock leads out on to a pressurized bulwark, the ship should be able to get in close without us all being sucked out into the atmosphere immediately," the unicorn began as he led them down a long hall to the left, eventually coming upon a thick bulkhead. "Damn it, it's on lockdown, my father must know we're here. "

"Then we've not got a lot of time, someone get that door open, surely the ship can pick us up from the outside?" Sero asked.

"Gizmo's not going to be able to get it right alongside, we'll need to jump," Nyx informed, earning an odd look from Reed.

"You sure you can jump with..." The hyena shut the cat up with a stern glare. "Okay, okay, just... Be careful."

"Seriously, I fuck him once..." Nyx grumbled as she shoved past Sen and set to work on the airlock. "I'll have it open in a second just..."

There was a flash, then a burst of smoke as the air filled with an electrical ting. It was followed by another, as all heads turned to see a group of guards storming the hallway, and this time they were not hesitant to open fire.

"Whatever you're doing, do it fast!" Sero declared, ducking behind a golden pillar beside a side room as he shot back, along with Sen opposite.

"Reed, make yourself useful and hold this!" Nyx called as she cut a plate from the wall beside the door, working on a set of wires.

"Inform station command, the prisoners are escaping!" one guard called into a communicator, as two more took cover from Sero's shots.

"Hurry up back there, dog!" Sen called, returning fire with his sidearm as Nyx growled she was going as fast as she could, only for the unicorn to respond. "Not fast enough..."

The dark stallion's words were cut off by a yelp as a bolt grazed his shoulder and he slid down into the doorway, half stunned. At the same moment, Nyx called out in triumph.

"There, I got it!" The door slid open, revealing a windy platform outside.

"Sen!" Sero called, a sudden spike of concern for the father of their children rising in the dragon as he crouched to pull the wounded unicorn back toward the open door. "Damn it, are you okay?"

"Never better," Sen slurred with a wince, as his cauterized shoulder hissed smoke. "Where's that damn ship?"

"Any moment now!" Nyx called, shooting her gun as she backed outside with Reed, and Sero dragged Sen close behind. "Come on Gizmo, where are you!?"

Shielded as it was, the wind on the platform was still strong, the reek of ionized air and sulfur filling the thick atmosphere. Furthermore, the guards were not about to let up, and they advanced at the first moment they got, until they were in the doorway.

"Stop, the lot of you, or we'll put you..." The unicorn in the lead was silenced as, like a great steel whale, Nyx's ship rose from under the platform, thin wisps of cloud rolling from its hull like waves as the guard muttered. "Fuck!"

"Light um' up, Gizmo!" Nyx called into her communicator, and with a clunk, whir, and a hiss, several modified turrets popped free of the ship's flank, coating the doorway in heavy fire. "Good, now open the port cargo hatch, quickly!"

There was a deep hiss of pistons as a huge ramp descended, swooping in close to the platform. Its grated surface seemed to provide enough in the way of grip as Nyx ordered Reed to jump.

"W-what me first? But... I..." The cat stammered.

"Get over there so you can catch me!" Nyx declared, practically throwing the feline over, where he landed with a clunk. "Okay, now, you ready!?"

Is it bad she looks almost as much like a flying whale as her ship does? Sero thought as the hyena took a long run-up, heavy paws thudding on metal before she jumped, bearly caught by Reed as she dragged her pregnant body aboard. Good, now just me and Sen.

"Make sure he gets over, I'm going to get ready for light-speed!" Nyx called, patting Reed on the shoulder as Sero dragged Sen close to the ramp.

"But we're still inside the shield!" Reed called over the howling wind.

"It's got a refraction rate, we jump out at light speed and we won't hit it!" Nyx called back. "Now just do as I say, or so help me next time I'll be the one sticking things up your tail!"

The 'eep' Reed gave at that was barely audible as Nyx took off to the bridge. Yet just as the ship's cannons kept the guards by the door suppressed, another shot lanced down from above, striking the vessel and forcing it to swerve away from the platform with a blast of smoke and flame.

"Damn drones, my father really doesn't want you getting out of here," Sen coughed as Sero looked up to see a pair of drone fighters zoom by like metal razors. "They'll gun the ship out of the sky if we don't hurry!"

"Sero, come on, you have to jump!" Reed called, yet just like that the guards by the door took their chance and resumed fire. "Gah, hurry!"

One shot struck right by the two pregnant males, erupting in a flash of sparks that burned away a part of Sen's robes, and just like that, the unicorn's hologram failed.

"Damn it, no!" Sen called, clutching his belly as each of the guards paused in confusion.

"The captain, he's... " One guard began to say, before they were overcome as Sero roared.

"He's pregnant with one of my kids and you're shooting at him, you fuckers!" The dragon rose up, wing spread as he clutched Sen close and blasted a wave of fire at the guards, setting their robes alight as he snapped at his lover. "Just hold on, you idiot!"

The unicorn could only mumble his disapproval as Sero spread his wings wide, and against the beating of the raging wind, leaped for the swaying cargo ramp. His front claws struck home, gripping the metal great as the howl of the drones' engines signaled they were coming around for another strafing run.

"Reed, get him!" the dragon called, shoving Sen up to where the cat could hold him as he struggled to drag his bloated body up. "Nyx, if you can hear us back here, now's a good time to pull away!"

Just like that, the ship's sub-light thrusters roared as it began to swerve, dipping low before it rose sharply from the platform. Yet as the walls of the station sped away into the mist, the drones swiftly fell in line to pursue. The high-pitched ring of their cannons charging was the only warning before a plasma blast struck the ship's tail, the whole thing lurching and throwing Sero right to the edge as Reed was tossed back into the hold.

"Light speed engaged, jump in: fifteen seconds..." buzzed the voice of Gizmo as Sero floundered on the still-open ramp. "Fourteen seconds..."

"Reed, close the hatch!" the dragon called, clawing his way up as he saw the cat by the lever to seal the hold.

"But you're still out..."

"Just do it!"

The lynx jumped, yanking the lever as the metal under Sero began to lift, only for the dragon to slip as the drones fired again.

"Ten seconds... Shields at: fifty percent capacity..."
