Meet the Black Stars; Draco's Story. Part I
#1 of Meet the Black Stars
[Milky Way Galaxy; Sol Cluster, Artificial World; Serria, Marine training bay A-9, Year 3,588 A.D, June 7th, 1:10PM]
Draco gripped his assault weapon tightly while listening to the foot steps of a patrolling foe that was just around the metal wall. He slowly moved his webbed hand towards the button that would allow his rifle to switch to single shots for improved accuracy. As the human enemy walked closer to his corner Draco took a deep breath and jumped out in front of the green armoured trainee. Before the human could raise his rifle he was shot several times in the chest with the low powered rounds from Draco's weapon. The green team member fell to the ground as his armour shocked his body in the location where he was damaged.
The platypus-like-alien walked past the twitching recruit whose armour was still punishing him for being shot. Draco came to a larger opening in the maze like area in the enclosed training bay; he watched a small group of recruits that bore the same team colors as he did rush past him.
"Let's kick some ass, move!' the squad leader yelled to both Draco and his troops as he waved the alien over to him
Draco followed his human squad mates down the largest path in the metal wall maze where they were quickly ambushed by the remaining green team forces that proceeded to laugh and mock the other team as they took out a handful of Draco's class mates.
"You rookies fell to the same old trick again!" a green team member laughed as she took several pot shots at the few remaining members of orange team before going into cover
Orange team huddled against a wall that was jetted into the path as their only source of cover; the low powered training rounds suppressed the squad from looking out of cover.
"Come out to play, Draco!" laughed the squad leader of green team. The raptor-esc alien pulled a stun grenade from off of his thigh before priming the small hand sized orb with his index talon.
Draco made a sharp turn out of cover as he aimed down the sights of his training rifle and fired a single burst into the squad leader's chest. The alien screeched as his armour registered the impact and causing his body to lock up allowing the active grenade to roll to the ground beside him and his team mates.
"Game, set, match." Draco smirked as his shouldered his rifle
The green team panicked but the grenade went off before they could get to a safe distance, all of their armours locked up as they registered the blast allowing for orange team to claim victory.
A very loud buzzer went off showing that the match was over, the metal walls that made up the maze sunk into the ground leaving the two teams alone in the large enclosed bay. The once wounded recruits got back up onto to their feet when their color coded vests turned off due to the match ending.
The green team squad leader placed his right claw on his forehead groggily while walking up to Draco who gave one of his human team mates a 'high five'.
"You are a bastard, you know that?" the raptor esc alien laughed
"I try." Draco answered with a smirk
The two teams immediately saluted their drill instructor when he walked into the training grounds; the black skinned human was in his army fatigues when he proceeded to bark at his troops.
" Alright you maggots that's it for today, get some sleep and I'll see you grubs tomorrow" The drill sergeant said as he himself was sleepy
The purple scaled alien punched Draco lightly in his right arm when walked over anther member of Draco's species. She wore the green color coded armour with the weapon she used for training exercises slung over her left shoulder.
"So what do you two knobs planning to do afterwards?" She asked with a laugh
"Well we have until tomorrow for our next class which is..." Draco paused as he stretched out his right arm then pressed a button on his wrist pad that all trainees were equipped with. A digital hologram of Draco's timetable hovered just over his arm allowing the three to see what was next, "...Which is power armour therapy."
"Great, anther chance to make my arms feel like noodles." The green squad leader sighed
"What's the matter Rek'tar? Should be excited that soon we will become full fledged marines and then we will be going around saving colonies from terrorist attacks! Remember, the reason why we all signed up together for the army?" Draco answered
Rek'tar nodded in agreement, "I know, I know. It's just very hard to get used to marine power armour, the last time it was only at twelve percent power and I turned my head too fast that I had to be taken into intensive care."
Draco watched his friend, Rek'tar; rub his neck with his left claw who still felt the phantom pains of that one session.
"Well since you have the same classes as me, Sarah, I guess we are all free for the next while." Draco commented
Rek'tar looked around to see the training bay had now been cleared for some time before he turned back to his friends" I wish I could go with you two but I still have to see the doctor about the accident"
Draco patted his raptor friend on the shoulder with his webbed hand, "You take care, man"
"Thanks." Rek'tar smiled before he started to walk off
Sarah took off Draco's fully enclosed helmet so she could ruffle the orange fur on his head before stroking the top of his black bill. The orange furred like-platypus recruit smiled as the lighter yellow furred female licked his forehead, matting down his short hairs.
"So...how many times has green team won so far?" Draco said with a smile
"Three times." Sarah answered briefly
"And how many times did orange team win?"
"Three. Counting your last cheap move"
Draco placed his right hand under the smaller female's duck shaped bill so he could make her look into his black eyes, "How about we host a tie breaker back at my place?"
Sarah laughed at his proposal.
[Milky Way Galaxy; Sol Cluster, Artificial World; Serria, Residential Area, Apartment T-35, Draco's suite, Year 3,588 A.D, June 7th, 1:40PM]
Draco slammed the door shut to his apartment with a back kick before his girlfriend, Sarah, continued to lick at his neck fur while tugging at his army green T-shirt. The male platypus fumbled with his left hand for the door locks so they wouldn't be disturbed but the combination of his sweaty grip and the constant arousal of the yellow-furred female who now hand her right hand up his shirt to feel his chest fur that had been soaked in his sweat from the prior training exercises.
His hand touched the locking mechanism allowing the device to scan his webbed hand to see the owner was home and the door locked tight.
"I love you so much Sarah." Draco whispered patiently
She slowly unzipped the back zipper on Draco's olive green army shirt allowing her to pull it off of her lover so she could jingle the dog tags around his neck and admire his form as well.
"When we graduate, we aren't going to have a lot of time for this." Sarah answered as Draco wrapped his arms around her waist
"Then we will just have to be creative during our patrols, now aren't we?" Draco answered with a sick smile wrapped across his bill
Sarah smiled back with the same type of smirk her boyfriend was giving her, "Or if one of us makes squad leader...and holds the other for some special one-on-one training."
"And since I'm the most likely to get squad leader out of both of us, I think I'll have to show this green team recruit why I'm the better candidate." Draco answered
Draco moved his right arm along her backside so he could reach the zipper to her shirt but as he got ready to pull it down; Sarah pushed him over so he landed on the couch. She walked beside the couch where her topless love laid watching her as he felt his metal necklace with his webbed fingers.
Sarah placed her left hand on the brown patch of fur that was on his chest while her free hand could slowly undress Draco of his army pants that he also helped get rid of with his legs. The male platypus continued to lie on the leather couch in his boxers while he watched Sarah walk into the washroom as she took off her shirt to reveal the black sport's bra that kept her breasts from bothering her during training.
"You still keep them in the cabinet, right?" Sarah asked
"Same place I always had them babe."
Draco turned onto his side so he could clearly watch his lover open a small plastic container from the medicine cabinet where she popped a single white pill into her mouth and swallowed it without the need of a glass of water.
"We don't need little Dracos and Sarahs running around now do we?" Draco laughed
"Not now, for the most part." Sarah answered as she smiled back
Sarah walked back, looking at her nearly nude boyfriend who still sat on his side giving her a seductive wink as he jingled his dog tags. Draco moved his legs off to the side a bit so she could sit down on the couch where she began removing her sweaty green army pants. With one hand Draco began brushing the patch of purple fur on her stomach as she finally kicked off her loose pants so she could sit with him on the couch in her bra and underwear.
Sarah moved herself onto her lover's waist where he moved his hands along her thighs to help keep her in place as he laid on the couch. She smiled down at him as she moved her hands up her backside to unhook her black sport's bra before tossing it onto the glass table that was covered in their clothing.
Draco's loins stirred as his partner leaned over him, her furry breasts just above his brown fur patch on his chest. The two duck billed creatures began licking each other's faces and necks; grooming each other in a heat of passion, Sarah wrapped her arms around her lover's neck so she could lie directly onto top of Draco allowing her to feel the soothing movements of his chest as he breathed in and out.
The male platypus wrapped his right hand around the side of his girlfriend's underwear and tugged at it furiously while she felt the now hardened cock rub between her legs as he wrapped his own legs around hers. Both their beaver-like tails clapped together constantly as Sarah continued to lick the forehead of her lover while also trying to help him undress the last of her clothing by placing her webbed hand on his own to help guide her excited partner. Her underwear slowly came off where it reached her ankles when Draco began pulling at his own boxers as he could contain himself no longer and wanted to stop teasing himself as the bulge that was his crotch started to escape from its confinements from Sarah who continued to feel the cock expand underneath her.
As Sarah kicked off her underwear that was hanging off one foot, Draco arched his back so he could slip off his own before he sat back once more. She unlocked her arms from her boyfriend's neck and placed them on his orange furred shoulders so she could push herself from his body to correctly position herself for the erect cock that eagerly waited to penetrate her soft pink inside.
Sarah clamped her bill tight and closed her eyes as she lowered herself onto her partner's manhood. Draco helped his yellow furred love by moving his hands up her thighs as he brushed them up and down before moving them up to her firm buttocks where he squeezed her left cheek with one hand. Sarah let out a little laugh before she lightly bonked Draco on the head with her left hand before moving it back to his shoulder to hold her up.
Soon the yellow furred platypus sat directly upright on her boyfriend's throbbing red cock with her webbed hands on his brown fur patch that was on his chest. Draco moved his hands up her waist and sides brushing her short fur gently while she let out quiet moans from lifting herself with both of her hands on his stomach allowing her too slowly take in Draco's shaft a little bit at a time as he massaged her body.
Sarah moved her right hand over her chest where she clutched her adjacent breast as her other hand reached under and grab hold of the rest of his dick. She leaned forward so she could better shove the rest of Draco's manhood into her pussy that much better, his tail continued to slap against the couch as he felt his cock fill out every inch inside her body as he penetrated deeper inside her, Sarah gasped while Draco had his mouth shut as the last of his cock was inside the yellow furred female.
Draco moved his hands to his girlfriend's breasts that hung freely over his body where he began to feel and grope them all around. He moved her right breast closer to his bill as he brushed the purple fur underside before his long tongue escaped from his mouth and began matting down the fur around her large breast with his hot sweaty tongue. Sarah moaned as she felt the throbbing cock continue to push in and out of her between her legs while her breasts where subjugated to the warmth of Draco's tongue as he moved the wet muscle between her cleavage.
Sarah arched her back forward so her chest could be closer to her boyfriend's face where he continued to lick all around her breasts. Draco moved his hands from her sides and placed them back on her behind allowing him to grab hold and to help move his partner move up and down on his dick as she now felt the veins alongside it from the amount of blood rushing into it. Sarah moaned louder as Draco followed his cock's next push with two of his middle fingers sliding up with it, he began rubbing his own manhood inside her vagina while at the same time probing the little space that his cock didn't take up. With his free hand he placed his index finger up her second hole as her short tail began hitting the stop of his webbed hand.
Draco opened his warm and wet mouth wide as he began to lightly bite on her right breast so his tongue could work around her yellow and purple color furred breast stimulating all of her sexual nerves there. His cock pounded her insides harder and harder as the desire to climax became increasingly more aware with thrusts that shook her body in every push. Slowly and surely Draco added more of his webbed fingers into her crevices that expanded her and allowing him to massage his own manhood as he thrust in and out of her.
His manhood bulged as he felt himself nearing closer and closer, Sarah's own bodily juices created a self lubricant for him allowing Draco to easily pull out of her each time that also added to his immense pleasure. Sarah's moans quickly became quick pants from Draco moving his body so his dick moved in and out of her at the fastest rate possible, his toes curled and his fingers pushed deeper into her sex holes that much farther as he neared orgasm.
Draco's cock grew as he felt like he was going to explode. He closed his eyes and his mouth shut closed as he was careful enough not to bite down on one of her breasts, his limbs began to lock up and with one final push inside her he released his hot sticky white seed up into her. His fingers inside Sarah's vagina burned from his own cum that poured down the sides of his cock in seemingly endless rivers as he pumped several more hot loads into her before it started to calm down as his manhood began to shrink back down in size.
Sarah brushed the top of her head while getting her breathing under control before she moved her arms back around Draco's neck and laid on his chest. She yawned as Draco pulled out his fingers that were covered in their combined love mixture and began to wipe his hand clean on the pants that hung over the glass coffee table to the next of them.
"What time is it?" Sarah whispered as she closed her eyes as she used her boyfriend like a bed
Draco turned his head at the digital clock; he let out a loud yawn before answering.
"Almost nine 'o' clock."
"We better get as much shut eye while we can before we are needed tomorrow." Sarah answered
Draco yawned as he brushed the fur on her backside, "Sounds good to me."
Draco smiled as the bottom of Sarah's head brushed up against the bottom of his bill as she made herself comfortable on his naked body. He pulled his army shirt from the table and placed it over her like a blanket; he could still feel the mess that they had created between their legs that stained both of their furs but cleaning one anther would have to wait until the morning.
[Milky Way Galaxy; Sol Cluster, Artificial World; Serria, Residential Area, Apartment T-35, Draco's suite, Year 3,588 A.D, June 8thth, 9:10 AM]
Draco shook his head groggily as his neck ached painfully from sleeping in such a position where his head wasn't on the same level as was his body. He carefully turned his head to see the digital clock was now flashing the time that was nine in the morning; the both of them had slept for almost twelve hours.
He placed his left hand over Sarah's head, brushing her soft bright yellow fur as she snuggled into him more with a large smile across her face.
"You were wonderful last night." Sarah complimented before she licked the top of his forehead when sliding off of his body.
Draco sat upright on the couch when she threw the orange furred creature's army shirt at his face so he could get dressed quickly. He leaned forward to pick up his olive green army pants off the glass coffee table while he searched around for his boxers when Sarah threw the article of clothing he was looking for straight onto his head.
"You aren't very observant are you?" Sarah smirked as she hooked her bra back around her chest
"First rule of command, have your troops do what you don't want to do." Draco answered back
Sarah walked over and lightly punched her partner in the shoulder who returned her sass back with a slap on her behind. The female platypus-like creature placed her arms through her olive green T-shirt and zipped up the back zipper before sitting on the couch beside Draco to put on her pants.
"We have an hour before power armour training, and you know what that means right?" Draco said with a smile as he got up
"We will be saving the outer colonies from those scum-sucking terrorists in no time." Sarah
Draco clicked the start button on his television remote too see if there was anything new in the world of news reporting. Sarah walked off to the wash room so she could check her face in the mirror and began brushing herself with the short comb near the sink.
"At approximately eight-fifteen this morning an electronic magnetic bomb went off disabling power to twenty VALOR military outposts in the outer colonies." The news anchor calmly said, "VALOR officials suspect this was the work of the same terrorists who liberated the prison space station, Armstrong, before destroying it killing over five hundred... making this bombing the third one this cycle."
Sarah walked over while brushing the back of her neck who couldn't believe what she was hearing; she sat down beside Draco who too was putting his focus on the television then getting ready to leave.
"Graduation can't come any sooner" Draco sharply said
"Do we even know why they are attacking?" Sarah asked
"Who the hell cares, they are cowards who are only targeting worlds with the least VALOR occupation."
Draco stood up and turned off the television before the story could switch to interviews for the next part of the news story.
"Come on, we have to get going." Draco said
[Milky Way Galaxy; Sol Cluster, Artificial World; Serria, Medical Ward C-22, Power armour fitting, Year 3,588 A.D, June 8thth, 10:11 AM]
"Alright you namby-pamby maggots." The staff sergeant said gruffly in front of his recruits, "Today's the day that we see how many of you snot-nosed babies is ready to adore the Standard Battle Power Armour."
The black skinned human leader walked back and forth between the rows of the almost graduated recruits before him. He wore the power armour he was talking about himself while carrying his helmet under his left arm. The recruits looked up and down at the armour they all hoped to walk out with by the end of the day and when he suddenly stopped and faced his troops at a speed that was only possible because of the armour he wore.
"The SBPA is a hallmark of VALOR's superiority! VALOR has colonized hundreds of thousands of worlds and has accepted numerous races into its fold! VALOR has defeated all of its enemies; we crushed the darkspawn army back in the first contact war, and have saved billions of lives when we utterly destroyed the infinite over twenty years ago. "The sergeant said triumphantly "We serve our President without question, without doubt! VALOR is the single most powerful entity that the Draconian Kingdom is too ashamed to believe in, we have the technology, we have the weapons, but do we have the men and women?!"
"Sir, yes sir! All of the recruits shouted in unison
The staff sergeant coughed with an angered look on his face, "That's odd, I couldn't hear anything! All I could hear was a bunch of no-life rejects who don't give a flying fuck about what VALOR stands for! Now I'm going to ask again and hopefully some real soldiers will answer me! Do we have the men and women!?"
"Sir, YES SIR!" They all yelled louder
"There are the troops I was looking for! For a second I thought I had a bunch of goddamn belly-aching space roaches in front of me!" The staff sergeant yelled back, "Now you all know the drill, get to your assigned suits and follow the diagnostic programs."
Draco walked over to his own personal power armour that awaited him. His armour's energy pack was hooked up to a small generator on the side of the small cubical like room, the black mesh underlay was magnetized to the wall along with the thin metal plates and helmet.
"The first piece of the SBPA is the black underlay; this soft one piece suit is made of altered spider silk that has been woven so tightly with multiple patterns that it is almost impenetrable to small arms fire, combined that with the millions of nano-bots that scan for enemy projectiles that they will in fact bunch up where the projectile will impact and absorb it making any attack always hit the strongest part of the armour. It also allows the artificial electronic skeleton built into it to read activates and monitor anything important." The sergeant added as he watched the species mixed squads to get into the tight fitting underlay
Draco felt like a scuba diver when he finished covering his head making sure all of his fur wasn't sticking out. He looked out of his small walk-in-locker to see Rek'tar needed the help of anther recruit who finished putting hers on moments before the raptor creature asked the human for help.
"Your main protection comes from the highly resistant trillium-carbon alloy plating that will protect all of your most important bits. Just like the underlay it will take VALOR grade weaponry to crack these bad boys, something the terrorists can't seem to grasp." The sergeant said while walking around to see his troops were equipping the blue and white armour plates to their one piece jump suits. "Note that you haven't just crippled yourself by looking in any direction, that's because the tech geeks on stand by have set all of your power armour activity to zero."
Rek'tar turned his head away from the looks of his peers who knew of his accident from the last time they were all here. He pulled the blue and white helmet over his head and walked over to Draco who was sitting down trying to get the armour plates to magnetize to their proper locations.
"You scared?" Rek'tar asked as he looked at his friend on the bench
"About what?" Draco answered as he stood up looking for his helmet
"Well once we get used to the armour we are going to be likely shipped to the outer worlds and never to see our folks back home for who knows how long..."
"You aren't getting cold feet now are you, Rek?" Draco asked sincerely
Rek'tar turned his head around to see if anyone was listening but all he saw was the sergeant barking at recruits who weren't treating the power armour the respect it deserved.
"You saw the news right? These terrorists are not like the ones reported in the past; we are not talking about pirates, smugglers or slavers. This one is an organized faction that has been targeting military sites for the past two years now and VALOR is properly keeping the worst of the details hidden from the public to stop an otherwise panic."
Draco waved his hand dismissively, "You're thinking about this too hard Rek, you heard what the sergeant said; VALOR has defeated all of its enemies and this one will be no different."
Draco's friend walked closer to him before speaking, "That's just more VALOR propaganda being shoved down our throats just like in school when we were little, and not to mention they don't even say 'why' these terrorists are doing what they do."
"Are you forgetting what VALOR has done? Before VALOR had arrive my people were on the brink of an all out nuclear war but just on the eve of destruction, massive star ships appeared in the sky and that's when we meet the human's who accepted us into their advance technology so if it wasn't for them, my world would now be a nuclear wasteland and last time I check you Red Claws were oppressed by the Draconian Kingdom until you joined VALOR who allowed you freely express your culture." Draco defended
"My apologies." Rek'tar said as he bowed his head submissively, "You and Sarah got me into joining as a way to pay our respects back to VALOR, but now as graduation draws closer, I don't think I can do it." He continued before taking off his helmet
"Look man, I didn't mean to pressure you into joining the army with the both of us." Draco answered
"The stress is getting to me; I don't think I'll make a very good marine. You seen them on television, the parades they are on and in the history books. I don't have what it takes."
"Trust me Rek, take a deep breath and you'll feel better. Nothing bad is going to happen, we are going to be assigned to some backwater planet, go on a few patrols and then spend the rest of the time on the orbiting star ship and just hang out like we still do."
Rek'tar nodded now with confidence, "Thanks Draco, these terrorists have nothing on the VALOR war machine."
"The medical teams are now ready to see if any of you slack jaw daffodils will go to fast!" The staff sergeant yelled, "Equip your power packs and hopefully one of you dingle-dorks will make it to a hundred percent."
Draco walked up the wall mounted generator and put his back against it so his power pack could connect against the trillium plating on his backside and with one hand he placed his helmet over his head.
"Acknowledged, Welcome, Private Flat tail, Draco." His suit's Artificial intelligence greeted over the speakers in his helmet in a droned mono-tone voice, "SBPA at ten-percent power, please keep all movements as slow as possible."
Draco's looked through the single view port out of his helmet that ran from ear to ear. Each of his peers in their power armour showed a green outline around their bodies indicating that they were friendly targets and when he focused on one individual it brought up their name and rank.
"I look like a marine on those recruitment posters, don't I?" a recruit asked as the private stood in front of Draco
He looked at the private that stood with their hands on their hips in the fully body armour to see the description of the person was one, Private Soft Paw, Sarah. Draco smiled when he saw it was her, and hugged her when he felt comfortable that he was able to function at ten percent power.
"All you need now is a flag and you're golden." Rek'tar laughed
"How are you doing Rek'tar?" Sarah asked
"Fine." He nodded, "Thanks."
The staff sergeant nodded with a casual salute to the technicians in a view box that overlooked the room where the recruits were in. The lead expert ordered for his workers to up the power of their suits at an increasing and steady rate.
Draco kept his movements to the bare minimum; he felt a tingling sensation through all of his limbs as the armour analyzed his body to get it ready for the sharp and quick movements that is paramount in being a VALOR marine. Rek'tar stood perfectly still with his friends in fear, he closed his eyes while trying to think happy thoughts and not the fact that if he looked to his left it would snap his neck.
A recruit screamed when the human moved his right arm causing it to dislocate from his shoulder in a loud popping sound. Several medics in white and red color power armour rushed into the room towards the wounded man who gawked at his wound in absolute horror. The medical marine carried out the injured person out on a stretcher with the one not holding onto the carrying device was administrating anaesthetic.
"If you babies haven't realized it yet each of your suit's A.I are scanning your bodies, injecting small micro robotic machines that are reinforcing your bones with trillium so you will not snap your legs off when running at top speeds and your muscles are being strengthen ten fold to undergo the enormous straining, and I'm sure you idiots can figure out what will happen if you MOVE when your body is not ready." The staff sergeant explained sternly
"Suit output at one-hundred percent, Private Flat Tail, and all systems operating at full power." Draco's suit said in its cold voice
Draco took a few cautious steps forward but nothing out of the ordinary happen, he didn't shoot across the room in a split second nor did he injure himself severely making the whole experience somewhat of a let down.
"If you haven't noticed by now, your power armour has linked directly into your brain so any movement you do will be because you have willed it as long as it does not override the safety parameters set in place." The staff sergeant explained as he saw the recruits where fumbling around like people in physical therapy.
Sarah flexed her arms as both Draco and Rek'tar started making quicker turns when they started to feel more comfortable using the SPBA.
"Now when you namby-pamby pansies are done getting your heads out of your arses, report to the main training yard for live fire testing." The staff sergeant ordered before he left
Draco walked in the centre of the room when something caught his eye; he turned and looked up at the overlook where the technicians were monitoring their life signs until a black armoured officer walked into their work space. The workers immediately backed away from their consuls allowing the officer to look down at the marines who walked around.
"Who is that?" Draco asked
"What?" Sarah answered when she looked up at what her boyfriend was pointing too
Both of them looked at the trench coat wearing soldier but nothing showed up beside his green outline, nothing but the word, "CLASSIFIED".
The human that the technicians were so afraid of wore the same body armour that all VALOR marines wore except in stead of blue and white coloring his was a pure black with a large opened coat that covered his entire suit. Over his helmet was an officer's cap that all VALOR higher ups wore to indicate that he must be someone of authority. The trench coat wearing marine kept his hand on the handle of his sword that was in its sheath on his left side before turning sharply and headed out the same way that he had entered.
Sarah shook her head, "Beats me, but I wouldn't want to piss him off."
"Agreed" Rek'tar answered who was equally as scared when he looked up
