Bad Days

Chapter 28

“The Angel of Death's kill count has risen yet again, sixteen more government officials have been killed. Every single killing where the victim knew the Reaper personally typically involved strangulation or blunt force trauma." a few papers were handed to the gryphon from off camera. “So… in total twenty seven government officials have been killed and tons of private security guards have also been killed, over two hundred private security personnel have been killed. A lot of people are suspecting that the Reaper is the Angel of Death, knows who the Angel of Death is or is helping the Angel of Death. This whole thing has General Reaper written all over it."

Conner swiped his hand in front of the infotainment system in his Nissan GTR, he was at a loss for words.

He had lost quite a few 'friends' and he was in disbelief. He was glad none of his closest friends like David, Kyle, Connor, Cameron, Michael, Treena, Karyna, or Cole had anything to do with this bullshit and of course his wife wasn't involved either. Those nine were the people he hung out the most with, until he joined the military, Matthew, Shane, Adalinda, and Kaida and her boyfriend Jacob became part of that group. He was glad his four military friends weren't linked to this crime group either.

Conner turned up his sound system and chuckled at the song that began playing, Bad Days by The Score with DREAMERS. “How fitting."

'We all got our bad days, bad days'

'But throw 'em in the back seat, yeah'

“Computer?" Conner narrowed his eyes in suspicion at the infotainment system. “Was this on purpose?"

“noooo…"

“Mmhmm." Conner rolled his eyes before chuckling. “Thank you… I needed this." He smiled as he continued listening to one of his favourite songs.

“Always a pleasure sir."

Conner had slaughtered another forty people not even fifteen minutes ago so that news report was already outdated, but that wasn't what his mind was focused on… it was who he had literally beaten into the floorboards.

It was a friend he had known since elementary school, they had slowly drifted apart after highschool but remained friends. Conner just didn't understand why some of his friends had betrayed him.

“Damn! I'm actually impressed that the COD franchise is still going." Daniella chuckled from her desk, Conner's desk was positioned against the wall at the foot of their bed and Daniella's was off to the left.

Conner chuckled as he pulled his mic arm down to fire off a retort to someone who got salty at being used as a mop by Conner.

“Oh fuckin' cry about it!" Conner scoffed. “Sorry that I have actual combat experience and you fuckin' suck!"

“Oh MY! A vEtErAn!" the player in voice chat mocked. “Do you want me to suck your dick?"

“Bruh." Conner responded as he heard Daniella inhale over voice chat and saw that she had pushed her push to talk button and her username had lit up on the side of the screen. “Now you've done it…. Hun…? Yo-"

“That IS MY JOB YOU FILTHY HUMAN!" Daniella exclaimed into the mic causing Conner to sigh. Conner sighed again as he heard his friends that they were playing with begin laughing.

Daniella was using a dragon player character and because of her draconic accent, it was very obvious. It of course was normal now but, some people still liked to judge and Conner was tired of hearing it. Daniella continued ranting and laying into this guy over voice chat until their party disconnected from that lobby.

'That dragon is something else…' Conner thought to himself, she was fair tempered until it involved him. She was very protective and anytime someone would insult Conner or mock him, it was like a switch in her brain was flipped. The same happened for Conner but he always had a temper and was easy to set off on a good day.

Conner could hear Kyle wheezing over the discord call and he could hear Michael crying from laughter, the rest of his friends were also hysterical.

“fuck me." Conner muttered to himself, he saw his username light up in the corner of his screen, indicating that his mic had picked up the sound and that discord hadn't filtered it out. He felt eyes bore into the back of his head and he knew she had turned around and was staring.

“Don't say something like that when I'm in heat unless you mean it, Conner." Daniella said with a heated growl and Conner heard her through discord and from across the room.

“Oh fuck… I think Imma have to end this recording and I'll be back in like an hour." Conner said as he heard Daniella's headset thump on her desk.

“As if you are going to last an hour." Cameron scoffed half jokingly over the call.

Conner ignored him and quickly scrambled and tapped the key he had binded to deafen in discord and tried to end his recording as the dragon hastily scrambled out of her chair that was made specifically for a dragon.

Unfortunately Conner had failed to hit the deafen button and just tapped his screenshot button instead but he didn't notice.

“Gaahhh!" Conner yelped as he dashed out of the bedroom as Daniella charged towards him, in his haste he had also failed to hit the end recording button on OBS as well.

“Get Back Here Conner!" Daniella shouted in a lust crazed tone.

Conner was fast but Daniella was absolutely faster and the inevitable happened when Conner found himself on the floor in his living room, he had managed to get all the way down the stairs to the main floor but Daniella caught up and now had him pinned to the carpet.

She smiled down at Conner before scooting forward so she was sitting directly on his chest with his head between her thighs. Conner could feel Daniella's tail swishing back and forth and could smell her arousal as his chin was literally touching her soaked nether lips.

“A few hundred years ago and this would have been a very bad position to be in for most humans." Conner chuckled.

The dragon arched her back forward and curved her neck down before bringing her head down to touch the tip of her snout to his nose. “But it isn't for you, my love." Daniella whispered before kissing Conner on the lips. She pulled away and smiled, she squeezed his head between her thighs before scooting back and straddling his hips before lifting off.

Daniella thankfully didn't rip Conner's clothes off, his clothes did end up scattered across the living room though.

Daniella placed her left paw on Conner's chest before grabbing hold of his member with her other paw, the dragon undressing him had got him quite excited. She lined up his stiff member with her already dripping nethers and sat back the moment she felt him touch home.

Daniella let out an extremely loud and needy moan before she began grinding against Conner's crotch so his shaft would poke and prod around inside her.

“STRAIGHT and TO the point when in heat, aye?" Conner chuckled through his gasping.

Daniella stared down at Conner with glazed over eyes before pressing her snout to his lips. She broke the kiss after about twenty seconds before lifting up her hips and dropping them down with a wet slap.

Conner let out a grunt as his dragon dropped her full weight down upon him. She let out a loud huff before gripping his shoulders and pulling him up into her chest. Conner let out a chuckle before wrapping his arms around her as she began moving up and down in his lap.

Conner started getting uncomfortable from sitting on the floor so he decided to do something, he put his hands on the dragon's rump and stood up with her held in his grasp. Conner shuffled over to the couch before flopping down onto the couch without causing himself to slip out of Daniella's warm and tight passage.

Daniella shifted in Conner's lap to be more comfortable before placing her right paw on the centre of his back and placing her left paw to the back of his head and hugging him tightly against herself as she resumed riding him.

“I love you." Daniella whispered softly before letting out a moan into Conner's shoulder.

“I… *GASP* love you more." Conner groaned quietly.

Conner felt Daniella's tail coil around his right leg and he smiled. The dragon gave a particularly hard squeeze with her egg laying muscles causing Conner to inhale sharply and tense his legs.

Daniella let out a squeak as Conner's shaft poked her g-spot, the living room was filled with the sounds of sex and neither human nor dragoness gave any care in the world, the only thing that mattered to both of them was each other in that moment.

“After all these years of near DAILY sex… you'd think IT wouldn't REMAIN!" Conner took a moment to swallow “So tight!" Conner squeaked the last part before squeezing his eyes shut and holding onto the dragon for dear life as she continued to ride him with reckless abandon.

Daniella responded with a rumble before clenching on Conner's length causing him to squirm. Daniella began stroking the back of Conner's head and started picking up her pace.

Conner gritted his teeth as Daniella started getting more rough, the couch was creaking in protest everytime she brought herself down.

He knew she was getting closer to her release. Everytime the dragon would lift up, her passage would pull on his shaft like it didn't want it to leave. Her tight passage was slick with her fluids but still managed to produce enough friction to drive the human wild. The pulling and squeezing on his member as she moved sent jolts of pleasure through his body.

“EEEP!" Daniella squeaked as she tightened her grip on her human and dropped her hips down hard. She sat in his lap as her orgasm slammed into her. She heard Conner suck in a breath and tense in her grasp as he felt the tell tale signs of her orgasm from the rhythmic clenching of her egg laying muscles.

“NNRGH!" Conner gritted his teeth and squeezed his eyes shut as Daniella's passage desperately tried to force his own orgasm out of him.

Daniella came down from her orgasm after another twenty seconds and looked at Conner, he looked slightly dazed but was still aware as his vivid green eyes shifted over and made eye contact with her own. His eyes had always been striking to the dragoness, his eyes shone with intelligence and killer instincts not seen as much in humans anymore. Even as a child, he had the eyes of a killer, cold, calculating and always observing but whenever he looked at her, she would see a shift, warmth and kindness would shine in his eyes when he looked at things he cared for deeply.

Conner's vision cleared and his eyes focused as he regained composure and he smiled warmly at the dragon in his lap. Daniella sat up and made Conner's member slip out. “Lie down!" she growled and Conner complied.

Conner pulled his legs onto the couch and laid across it, the dragon straddled his hips and smiled at his wide eyed expression. Daniella didn't sit down just yet, she curled her tail around and got the tip soaked in her juices before smearing her liquids across the outside of her tailhole. She wrapped her tail around his member and used it to guide it to her back door.

Daniella removed her tail once she felt the tip of Conner's cock enter her asshole, Conner went to sit up and grab Daniella but she dropped her forepaws on his shoulders and held him down as she sunk back on his cock, letting out a loud moan as she did so.

Daniella looked down at Conner who was a panting wreck at the moment from the overstimulation he was currently experiencing. Daniella finally felt herself plant her hips in his lap and sit down on his cock, she sat there panting for a few seconds to compose herself.

Daniella slowly picked herself up before dropping herself back down on Conner's rock hard member, as she did so Conner shot his arms up and grabbed her forelegs. Conner had squeezed his eyes shut and was writhing around as the dragon continued to bounce on his cock.

“The TIGHTness is always so shOCKING!" Conner's legs tensed and he sucked in a sharp breath. “Even after all this time." Conner added with a shaky chuckle.

Daniella only smiled before refocusing on the wonderful sensations of Conner's cock moving in and out of her anal passage.

Daniella brought her snout right next to Conner's left ear. “You wanna cum in my ass, don't you?" She whispered in a sultry tone. She smiled when she felt Conner tense under her. “Well…?" Daniella whispered with a smug grin on her face.

“Why are you g-good at being h-hot?" Conner groaned.

Daniella brought her snout up to Conner's face and pressed her lips to his own, she pushed her tongue into his mouth and felt her heart flutter as Conner's own tongue pushed against hers.

The dragon broke the kiss before speeding up her rhythm, letting out a loud moan every time she hilted herself on Conner's pole. Conner could tell she was getting closer and he himself had been teetering on the edge of release for a good minute now.

Daniella let out a deep draconic growl before leaning down to whisper in Conner's ear. “You are going to cum deep in my ass." Daniella whispered in a low growl. She smiled as she felt his member stiffen.

Now that she knew he was about to cum, Daniella let herself go. She gave one last forceful thrust down and basically collapsed on top of Conner. Conner went completely limp after his orgasm hit him, he forgot what was going on in that moment and almost blacked out from the overstimulation.

“Cam! How long have they been gone now?" Kyle asked over the discord call.

“It's been over half an hour now." Cameron responded with a chuckle.

A distant groan was heard followed by footsteps that came from Conner's mic. “My tailbone is killing me!" Conner exclaimed as he sat down at his desk, his heart sank when he saw that he had not ended his recording or deafened. “Oh you've got to be kidding me!" Conner exclaimed as he put his headphones on. “You are lucky I wasn't streaming!" Conner cupped his hands together over his mouth to amplify his voice as he shouted.

“Your tailbone hurts?" Cameron asked. “Is that the only thing that hurts?" Cameron added with a sinister chuckle.

“Oh fuck right off! She tackled me to the living room floor and I was ridden into the floor for a good five minutes! I stood up with her and we continued on the couch! The only person who took it up the ass was her you sick fuck!" Conner spat in slight annoyance into his mic before adjusting the mic arm.

Conner rolled his eyes as he realized all of his friends had remained in the call and were laughing.

“David, what is her progress?" Conner said as he downshifted his Charger with the paddle shifters.

“I don't trust her, I don't know if it is noteworthy but ever since she hit… ummm I guess it would be considered puberty, she started acting differently." Conner heard the man say nervously over his car's speakers.

“Has she shown any signs of being able to speak or understand English?" Conner sighed.

“I'm sorry Conner but she terrifies me. That Indoraptor… you can see the intelligence in her eyes. It's like she's waiting for me to make a mistake and do God knows what to me."

Conner stifled a chuckle as his mind went in the direction it probably shouldn't have given the topic of conversation. “The only reason I had you start wearing a Tek suit when doing hands on work with her once she reached adolescents was a safety precaution. Alexandra's and a few different human's DNA was used to boost intelligence. I still find it odd that she hasn't spoken yet." Conner scratched his beard as he began to think. “Need I remind you of the fact that she is imprinted to you David. Yes she is an unpredictable hybrid and highly intelligent but you raised her from birth." Conner chuckled. “Yes absolutely never let your guard down and don't show weakness but treat them with respect, they can smell your fear. I know some dragons consider fear to be a turn on but I don't think it will be the same case for you. Be cautious but do have some faith."

David sighed. “Will do General."

Conner shook his head, that Indoraptor never provided a dull moment for David or himself. One thing he had refrained from telling David was the look the hybrid raptor would give David when he wasn't looking, her piercing red eyes contrasted with her white scales, the look she had given David was a look he had seen many times and when he realized what that look was, he couldn't believe it. The Indoraptor had noticed Conner staring and she had looked over and saw Conner's wide eyed expression. Conner had looked between the two for a second before he looked back at the Indoraptor and saw her grin.

Conner had been in the observation room and David was doing maintenance inside the containment chamber with his Tek suit on. Conner had facepalmed as he realized what he had done, of course he knew nothing had happened but telling David about what he was certain he had discovered would make his friend refuse to work with Diana in the future.

“But why?" Conner had said aloud as he stared at the white Indoraptor with a gold strip running along both her flanks. “He's… Oh hell, I should have seen this coming."

Conner chuckled before focusing back on the road ahead, he had come to that realization two months ago. “I have a feeling I know what might happen if she gets out of her containment chamber… if she's as smart as I think she is."

Rage Fuels the Monster in the Cage

Chapter 29

Conner was on one of his evening drives when his two-way radio went off causing him to be ripped from his thoughts. The dispatcher wasn't being specific on who needed to respond, this was urgent.

Conner tapped the infotainment system to open his mic before speaking. “Dispatch, this is Shadow 1-1, can you repeat that? Did you say a shootout at what address?"

The dispatcher responded and Conner sighed. “Copy that, I'm less than two minutes out, over."

Conner flicked his lights on and turned on his sirens before dropping a gear and putting the accelerator to the floor. The modified Hellcat Charger Jailbreak roared and its supercharger screamed as the car flew down the road.

“What are we looking at?" an officer said to one of his coworkers as they sat behind one of the armoured swat trucks.

“A few of the suspects are quite talented with magic, we've got three wounded and two dead officers."

“Fuck!" the senior officer exclaimed as he grabbed an assault rifle from the back of the armoured truck.

The two officers turned their heads as they heard the roar and scream of a supercharged V8 engine accompanied by police sirens. Their two-way radios went off with dispatch notifying them that backup was arriving.

They saw the car drift around the corner with its flashers going but something was slightly different, the headlights were red and weren't flashing with the rest of the lights and the car was definitely modified. The car let out an echoing turbocharger sputter as it backfired, spitting flames like a dragon. The car rolled up and an armoured man stepped out.

“What's the situation?" the man said as his black and cyan armour let out a menacing hum.

“Ah General Reaper! Not good, three wounded and two dead." the senior officer said as Conner approached. His armour gave him an additional two inches of height. “A few of them appear to be skilled with magic."

Conner let out a sigh as he pulled out his Scar-17 and pulled the charging handle back. “Reaper to Command, requesting backup. Shits gonna get ugly, I need damage control out here. We've got sorcerers." Conner turned back to the two officers that he had stood next to. “Are you able to confirm the species of the individuals and if they are Elemental?"

“Three humanoids and a dragon but no idea if any of them are Elemental or not."

“Fuck! Alright." Conner turned back away to look at the building. “Three humanoids and one dragon, unable to confirm Elemental."

Three matte black Tek suits with no lights landed behind Conner, the Shadow Company shoulder patch and rank and callsign on their chest's identified each soldier. The Shadow Company shoulder patch was of a hooded skull wearing a mask over the lower half of its face, like everything in Shadow Company's uniforms, it was all black and used layering and lighter colouring to show details. It was done this way so Shadow Company soldiers could be nearly invisible in the darkness.

Conner filled in the three Shadows on the situation before his own Tek suit shifted into it's uniform colour preset and they began advancing on the building with fifteen officers following in with them.

Conner kicked the door down and as the four Shadow soldiers entered they almost instantly started getting shot at. All four Shadows returned fire with their own weapons and Conner caught a human between the eyes causing that man's head to explode like a grape from the kinetic energy behind the 7.62x51mm Elemental armour piercing round, all of his cartridges were modified and none had regular gunpowder. It was only Elemental gunpowder, giving the ammo an unbelievable amount of muzzle velocity, stopping power and kinetic energy.

As the suspects began retreating one of them discharged a bolt of lightning magic but it struck Conner's armour and the Tek suit just absorbed and stored the energy.

They made their way upstairs after the fleeing suspects and Conner lunged forward and tackled the dragon as his soldiers put down the other two humanoids but not before the two humanoids finished something.

Conner got the dragon restrained before he noticed something about the room and his heart sank. “You have got to be fucking kidding me!" He exclaimed as he saw a summoning circle across the room, the summoning circle was glowing red, the room was also filled with demonic artifacts and ritual significant items.

Conner was about to say something but the entire room exploded in fire and he was launched out of the building and smashed into the street.

“General!" One of the Tek suit soldiers shouted as he got up and rushed over to his commander.

Conner didn't respond, he only shifted slightly. His body was tingling, it wasn't from an unfamiliar feeling… it was from rage, from fury and some magic that he was very familiar with. The Tek suit's de atomizer storage system activated and stored his clothes before his armour's airtight seal broke with a hiss and each segment and plate of the armour began separating.

“Sometimes you gotta let the monster out of the cage to play!" Conner grumbled in a voice that shifted as he spoke and a plume of oily black smoke seeped out from in between the segments of his helmet as the armour continued to spread out and deconstruct.

His body began increasing in size at an alarming rate, his fingernails elongated into fixed claws and his skin began darkening, a long tail came out of his backside and a pair of large leathery wings erupted from his back as his body became covered in a black scaly hide with no pattern.

“YOU SUMMON A DEMON TO TRY AND DEAL WITH ME!!!" Conner shouted as he stood up on all fours.

He towered over everything. Colossal dragons had gone extinct a few hundred years ago but he had been one in a previous life. Colossal dragons were typically twice the size of dragons and dragons were typically twice the size of dwarf dragons. Conner's dragon form had been three times the size of mid-sized dragons and one point five times the size of the average colossal. Crimson Darkness as he had been known as was part of a subclass of colossal dragons known as an Elemental berserker, berserker dragons were typically slightly larger than average but his dragon form was massive even for a berserker. Berserker dragons also had fixed claws and tail spikes.

Conner's dragon form was jet black and had almost like a crown of spikes around and in between his horns and ears but they pointed straight back to be almost parallel to his neck, the spikes or quills ran down from between his long black horns to the back of his head and traveled down the back of his neck. The spikes also jutted out from his lower jaw where his head met his neck. The spikes on the back of his neck continued and ran along his spine and ran along the top of his tail, ending in large sharp spikes at the end of his tail that looked to be dripping venom. Conner turned his head and his piercing bright crimson red slitted reptilian eyes shone in the lights from the surrounding cars. Conner's Tek suit finished changing and it formed a wrist screen, a few rings on his other forepaw and one earpiece that was in his right ear.

Conner's draconic form was around Alexandra's size, not as large as Ares but close enough to still be massive.

“Well Demon!" Conner's deep voice boomed as his claws clacked on the ground as he walked, his tail swished back and forth in irritation and the highly corrosive venom hissed as it dripped onto the asphalt. The venom produced by Conner's draconic form was ten times more lethal than the venom from an inland taipan and fifty times more acidic than hydrochloric acid.

“MY PATIENCE GROWS THIN!!" Conner roared and oily black smoke began curling out of his mouth as his fire glands began leaking the chemical concoction and it was reacting with the air in and around his mouth. The acidic hissing sounds and wet feeling on the end of his tail were adding to his irritation.

Conner saw a large humanoid being of pure darkness riding a being that looked to be a mix between a dragon and a dog and was also pure darkness. The humanoid appeared to be wearing a crown and it had wings on its back, the beast it was riding also had wings.

“Astaroth." Conner muttered as he recognized the demon.

The demon stood at around level with Conner as he stepped out of the fire. Conner began muttering something under his breath before he lunged forward and tackled the demon off his mount, Conner threw the demon aside before striking the beast with his tail causing it to wail in agony. Conner raised his right paw and blasted the creature with a blast of magical energy, banishing the being back to hell.

The scales that made contact with the demon on Conner's body were glowing a molten colour, Conner had muttered a few spells before he had lunged so the demon couldn't counter or dodge him. Conner's already insane mental fortitude, physical and natural resistance allowed him to shrug off most of the demon's attacks very easily. Elementals also were naturally almost immune to demonic possession so Conner wasn't concerned, even though this demon was one of the most powerful.

The demon roared in rage at the massive dragon before launching a torrent of flame at Conner's face. As the fire cleared away from Conner's face, his lips curled back in a menacing grin to reveal his massive razor sharp serrated and pointed teeth. Conner opened his mouth before sucking in a breath and releasing a jet of dragon bile that ignited the moment it came in contact with oxygen.

The demon seemed to realize its mistake and quickly tackled the dragon to the ground, the two grappled for around thirty seconds before Conner grabbed the demon's head in his forepaws and a white flash temporarily blinded everyone watching.

“Banished… to where you belong." Conner swallowed as he rolled over to his side. “Bitch!" Conner added with a huff that made a puff of smoke shoot out of his mouth as he got back to his feet. Conner felt the venom glands in his tail close up and his tail stopped dripping venom.

Conner sat back on his haunches and the scales that had been glowing molten were slowly cooling back down. He began tapping away at his Tek wrist screen, his tail was swishing and flicking about much like a cat's would if it was agitated. Dragons did definitely act like cats in certain ways but they were still so different in many other ways.

Conner turned back over to the still burning building and sighed. Conner began thinking about what he could do when he remembered. He raised his right paw with it turned over to be 'palm' up with his toes outstretched, he closed his 'hand' as much as he could with his fixed claws and lowered his paw slowly. The height of the flames instantly began reducing. In less than twenty seconds the fire had completely died, firefighters had arrived shortly after to soak the ground to cool everything off and prevent it from reigniting.

“Thanks for the help, Reaper!" The police Sergeant said with a smile.

“Anytime." Conner smiled but tried to avoid showing his teeth.

Conner's Dodge Charger went into gear and started driving off, the vehicle's loud exhaust echoed through dimly lit streets as dusk began to fall as it drove off.

Conner walked into an open area before spreading his massive wings, his wingspan was easily one hundred feet or more, putting most small to mid sized aircraft to shame. Conner crouched down and gave a test flap of his wings, the test flap stirred up a lot of dust and caused a loud whooshing sound.

Conner braced himself on the ground and launched into the sky, he let out a loud roar after getting to a decent height.

“Wonder how many people had a mini heart attack from that?" Conner chuckled to himself as he heard his roar still echoing across the sky.

Conner got up to a comfortable cruising speed, he was flying at around highway speeds through the air, one hundred twenty kilometers per hour or around seventy five miles per hour and he wasn't pushing himself… not even close.

Darkness… that was all she saw, she was dreaming again. Daniella didn't really understand the dream, all she knew was that something happened to Conner and she couldn't find him.

Daniella awoke with a start from her nap, that was the fifth time she'd had that dream. “What the fuck?" Daniella muttered to herself before she got out of bed and walked to the washroom connected to the master bedroom.

Conner let out a sigh as he touched down on his private beach, it was always nice to watch the sunset as the beach was facing almost perfectly west. He kneaded his massive front paws into the sand as he sat on his haunches.

Conner felt a presence and heard faint flapping sounds, he turned and saw a black form in the sky behind him and smiled.

Daniella touched down next to Conner and smiled up at him. “Definitely feels weird having to look up at you again after like one thousand years."

Conner responded with a deep chuckle before he closed his eyes and began shifting back to his true form. His Tek suit moved across his body before his helmet pulled away once the transformation finished, the rest of his Tek suit deconstructed shortly after.

“Conner… I saw the recent bank statements." Daniella said as she rolled her eyes. “What the fuck did you buy from Lockheed Martin for around seven hundred million?"

Conner shook his head and chuckled. “Would you like to see them?" Conner said with a smirk.

Daniella sighed but followed Conner through a winding foot trail until they came upon a hanger with a very long runway.

“I would have liked to have had a shorter runway but two out of the four don't have VTOL… yet, although I don't think I could make VTOL work on that one." Conner muttered more to himself as he walked towards the side door of the large hanger.

“Wait… you di-" Daniella's train of thought derailed as the hanger lights came on to reveal three matte black fighter jets. A Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor which was partially taken apart, a Lockheed Martin X-35 and a Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II.

Conner grinned as he walked over to the F-35 and pointed at the obviously still present weapons.

“They didn't deweaponize them before they sold them to you?" Daniella asked in surprise.

“Special privileges, hun!" Conner chuckled.

Daniella rolled her eyes and let out a snort before walking over to the X-35 and inspecting it. “How did you get your hands on this thing?"

“They made over two thousand units and with enough money you can get pretty much whatever you want… It was fairly easy to arm it as well. The X-35 was sort of the precursor to the F-35 so the two have some similarities." Conner said with a smile before walking over to the F-22 which had most of its underbody panels removed, tools were scattered on three different tables around the fighter jet and the body panels were laying on the ground near the jet.

“What were you doing with the Raptor?" Daniella asked as she padded over to the fighter jet that was partially dismantled.

“I was trying to see if I could actually add VTOL to this thing as well, would be fun and more convenient and I've also been upgrading its electronics." Conner smiled before he pointed at the F-22s fuel tank which had a hazardous warning sign that the dragon recognized. Jet fuel was hazardous but it wasn't normally radioactive.

It was an Elemental hazard warning.

“All three cockpits are airtight and have a very similar oxygen recycling system to my Tek armour. They are space capable and can be piloted by my AI."

“Elemental jet fuel… Holy shit!" Daniella exclaimed with a chuckle.

Conner smiled before stepping over to an empty space in the hanger and swiping his hand down, a holographic projection of an F-22 Raptor appeared and he began circling it while pulling different parts off of it and adding different parts.

“What are you doing?" Daniella asked with a curious smile, she loved seeing her husband work and use his brain. He never failed to impress her with his engineering skills.

“The F-22 was never designed with a VTOL system or Vertical Takeoff and Landing system in mind so I'm trying to see how I could do this. These jets will most likely never see combat so the negative downsides to having a VTOL engine don't really concern me and because of these things having Elemental upgrades… those negatives mean shit when the jet is so damn fast and literally undetectable on any radar system unless the aircraft lets itself be seen." Conner chuckled before trying to see how he could get the dual nozzles of the F-22 to rotate downward to assist in vertical takeoff.

Conner had completely hyper focused into his work thanks to his ADHD(*Insert eyeroll and grumble from author here*) that he had kind of forgotten that Daniella was watching him intently. Conner's train of thought was completely derailed and came crashing down when he noticed a familiar and pleasant smell.

“Are you getting aroused?" Conner asked in shock as he started to chuckle.

“N-no!" Daniella stammered, she frowned as Conner started laughing really hard. “Asshole." Daniella muttered as she squirmed in place.

Conner finally composed himself and wiped the tears from his eyes before walking over to the dragon and giving her a kiss on the nose. “Fuck, you're cute." Conner chuckled. The dragon let out a snort and didn't make eye contact.

Conner walked back over to the F-22 and that's when Daniella noticed a portion of the hanger that was still dark and she could make out the shape of something in the dark. Conner noticed that Daniella was looking at it and he smiled. Conner snapped his fingers with his right hand causing the lights in that area to turn on.

What sat in the formally dark space was a large matte black aircraft… a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird.

“Holy fucking shit!" Daniella exclaimed in shock as she looked at the legendary aircraft.

“That was the sixteenth of the thirty two ever made." Conner smiled as he walked over to the piece of aviation history that still ran… he of course had modified it.

“Wait… Is that why I've seen news reports of an SR-71 that has been spotted around the BC area for the past month?" Daniella narrowed her eyes to slits.

“Maybe." Conner said with a smile.

This is Bad, Like Really Fuckin' Bad

Chapter 30

Conner watched the mountains whizz by above him, he was flying upside down. It had taken a bit of getting used to after having only really flown in his Tek suit or on Daniella's back when they were kids which was quite different, but Conner still found joy in flying like this. Conner still had his helmet on and was currently flying his F-22 Raptor and he had modified the jet to allow him to implement the HMDS system that the F-35 fighter jets had. He leveled the jet back out and looked down, his helmet's advanced heads up display allowed him to see through the jet.

“Let's have some real fun now." Conner chuckled as he pulled the control stick back and broke the sound barrier. Conner slowly moved the throttle forward as he climbed. If this was a regular F-22, he wouldn't be climbing so high and he would have activated the afterburner. Although if he used the afterburner in the atmosphere of a planet… the jet would basically explode and he would pass out from the g-forces.

“Approaching ozone layer. Activating oxygen recycling."

“Sir, we have passed one hundred fifty thousand feet and the jet is performing well." The AI said a few seconds after the jet passed through the ozone layer. “Do you want to test the afterburner?"

“I don't really want to launch into hyperspace at the moment, Computer." Conner said as he saw the ISS2.0 pass by on his radar. “Although maybe I could go twice or maybe five times lightspeed and go visit NASA's lunar base." Conner said to himself as the jet exited the atmosphere. “I could see how some of my guys working with NASA are doing in person."

Conner stopped his jet in orbit at one hundred fifty kilometers above sea level as his heads up display notified him of a text.

He pulled out his phone and smiled as he saw the photo of him and Daniella on her highschool graduation day on his lock screen before unlocking his phone and opening the text.

It was from the Chief of the Defence Staff and it said 'We've got a huge problem'. Conner cocked an eyebrow in confusion before he noticed he had ignored a few notifications on his heads up display, what he saw caused his heart to sink.

-Paleo Research Site 1, Containment breach detected-

-Paleo Research Site 2, Containment breach detected-

-Paleo Research Site 3, Containment breach detected-

-Paleo Research Site 4, Containment breach detected-

These notifications continued. He had over twenty different sites across the planet and every single one had experienced a containment breach and to make everything even worse, apparently a cluster of islands off the coast of Ecuador that Universal had purchased because it was located around the same area that the fictional islands of Jurassic Park and World were located had experienced a containment breach after the dinosaurs on that island had been brought to the mainland due to Volcanic activity to the real life equivalent of Lockwood manor and got out.

“Are you fucking kidding me!?" Conner exclaimed as he sat in orbit. He almost thought about letting his intrusive thoughts win and just point his jet into deep space and punch the throttle and afterburner, but ultimately he decided against it and reentered the atmosphere.

“Shield generator, Online."

Conner watched the fireball surround the jet before he leveled out at sixty thousand feet and ripped across the sky at mach thirty five.

Shadow Company's headquarters were located in Toronto Ontario Canada but most of the top secret weapons development happened deep in the Rocky Mountains of BC Canada. The HQ was where most of the business and planning side of things went on, the office workers of Shadow Company.

The city of Toronto was shaken by the sound of a jet approaching, sonic booms began getting less frequent but louder as a jet approached.

A matte black jet was seen flying lower before the jet actually began weaving between buildings at subsonic speeds. As the jet approached the Shadow Company headquarters the cockpit opened and something jumped out, the pilot did not eject but rather he jumped out and the jet tilted its flaps and pointed straight up. The jet began to slow before it started hovering over the street and began hovering towards the Shadow Company building.

It was a matte black F-22 Raptor, the pilot hit the ground on his feet and began sprinting to the building ahead.

Conner burst through the front doors of his company's HQ. “I go to take one of my fighter jets for a test flight and that's when you idiots decide to LET SHIT HIT THE FAN!" Conner shouted as he let his helmet deconstruct into his hat and facemask so he could massage his temples.

The F-22 began hovering just outside the front entrance of the building so the crowd of pedestrians and news reporters couldn't get close. “FUCK!" Conner shouted as he walked over to the COO and CFO of Shadow company so he could get filled in about the situation.

Conner sat down at a chair in one of the private board rooms and his mask deconstructed but his hat stayed. “So… Eli." Conner sighed as he looked at the COO. “What happened?"

“It was another one, Conner." Elijah said matter of factly as Conner looked like he was going to kill someone.

“Another What!" Conner snarled.

“Another rat." the CFO said as he picked up a stack of papers. “A Russian spy."

Conner sighed before quickly pulling his shirt over his nose as the door opened, he sighed and dropped his shirt as he saw a very pissed off black and dark red dragoness walk into the room and close the door behind her.

“Always wearing dark clothing." Daniella stated as she walked over to her husband.

Conner was visibly shaking with anger as the COO and CFO continued to fill him in on the shit that went wrong.

“So the RF thought it would be genius to jeopardize the entire world's ecosystem to try and get back at us?" Conner asked in genuine confusion as Daniella sat behind him and massaged his shoulders and neck. “The amount of fucking stupidity that requires is astounding!" Conner scoffed before moving the display of the world map on the table around. “I wouldn't be surprised if the genius who came up with that idea puts his shoes on the wrong feet and can't fucking tie them on his own!" Conner spat as he slammed his fist on the table. “Puts his underwear over his fuckin' pants." Conner grumbled as he started fidgeting with his wedding ring. “Literal helmet wearing, crayon eating, window licking activities! I… WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA!!!" Conner shouted in frustration as he saw the red dots of all the tracking implants scattered around the general area of each containment site. “FUCK!!" Conner let out a snarl as his eyes turned to a crimson red and slitted and he went to stand but Daniella firmly held him down and hugged him.

“How are you so good at calming him down?" The CFO chuckled after Conner yielded and closed his eyes.

“We've been together for over twenty years Mark, I just know how." Daniella smiled as she crossed her paws over Conner's chest and rested her head on top of his. Conner sighed as he let the dragon's touch and smell calm his mind.

“I've known him for literally my entire life as well. Almost forty four years straight of being by someone's side kinda makes you understand each other on a very deep level and we are Elementals who have reincarnated thousands of times. We have been at each other's sides for millions of years technically." Daniella smiled as she took in a deep breath of Conner's scent. “We are old souls, I'm pretty sure we might be one of the oldest Elemental pairs on the planet." Daniella chuckled as she wrapped her tail around Conner's right leg.

Conner took a deep breath and opened his eyes, which had turned back to a vivid green and were no longer slitted. “Eli, I want full steam ahead on the Ark System project, if we are unable to contain this mess… we need a back up, an archive of all of Earth's species." Conner grumbled before shifting the map on the table. “Even though the Russians have denied anything about Elemental leaks and contamination." Conner pointed to multiple spots on the map that had purple clusters over those areas. “The satellites have been able to pick up obvious unstable Element contamination. We've all seen the tests and we know what happens to a creature when it is infected, unstable Element is almost alive… it's like a fucking hive mind." Conner let out a sigh as he used the advanced satellite system to zoom in. What he saw was not good.

“Holy shit!" Elijah exclaimed. “Is that a tree?"

It was a disgusting abomination that used to be a tree. Conner shook his head as he let out a sigh and tapped something on the table screen.

“Orbital Cannon sixteen. Target acquired."

“Firing in three… two… one…"

The four of them watched as a beam of something greenish purple shot out from the satellite and the corrupted tree got vapourized.

“Nuclear Orbital Cannon on cooldown. Target destroyed."

“Computer, I want you to monitor these locations and destroy any corrupted anomalies when they appear." Conner spoke in a flat tone as he moved the map around to look for any other corrupted plants or animals.

“Affirmative Sir, seven anomalies detected. Firing Orbital Cannons seven, twelve, twenty, twenty seven, thirty two, and thirty eight."

Conner sighed as we watched each anomaly get eviscerated at the same time.

“All Targets Neutralized. Continuing to monitor."

“I want as many units as possible mobilized to try and contain this mess. Shadow 3 will be fantastic in tracking these escaped assets down, we need to either contain this mess or dinosaur proof homes and buildings. This is fucking bad!" Conner put his head in his hands before standing up. “I have a Russian spy to hunt down in the meantime. Keep me updated until I can start helping with this mess… personally."

Conner stood up from his chair and as he walked to the door, segments of his Tek suit began forming and connecting together. His Tek suit fully formed in less than ten seconds. Daniella's own Tek armour formed in a similar fashion and she followed her husband out of the board room.

“System Online. Let's find this asshole!"

“I couldn't agree more, Computer." Conner chuckled as he walked into the main lobby of Shadow HQ.

“I have scrambled your entire car collection, I am following every possible lead I can find."

“This cunt cannot possibly hide from one hundred cars and a semi truck, or hide from over one million people employed by Shadow Company, half of them being soldiers." Conner chuckled as he walked out the front doors and Tek jumped towards his F-22 which was still hovering in VTOL mode in front of the building.

“Connection reestablished. Entering pilot mode. HMDS System Online."

Conner turned his jet towards a gap between buildings as the canopy closed and a sharp and quick hiss was heard as the cockpit pressurized. The rear twin nozzles of the dual jet engines tilted back and the underbelly VTOL engines closed up and hid away under the body panels as the jet began accelerating. The jet began roaring louder as the dual turbofan engines began spooling up.

“Gah! I want to go supersonic SO BAD!" Conner exclaimed as he began flying over the city skyline.

Conner saw a blip on his radar next to him, he looked over and saw Daniella flying off to his left in her Tek armour.

“How does it feel to be able to compete with the ingenuity of man in the skies?" Conner chuckled as Daniella did a barrel roll. The exhaust trails from the thrusters in her armour left a faint spiral in the sky.

Conner did his own barrel roll in his jet. Daniella shook her head at his comment, even though Conner couldn't see it, he knew she rolled her eyes.

“Sir, I've got a lead. He's hiding in a house with some of his accomplices out in a rural region. The nearest neighbour is fifty clicks from their current position."

Conner grinned menacingly under his helmet as the location popped up on his radar. Conner was currently at forty thousand feet and going mach fifteen. He turned the jet in that direction and began dropping altitude slowly. Once Conner was a fair distance away from everything, he began dropping in altitude at an unbelievable rate.

“Sir… are you about to do what I think you are going to do?"

“Possibly." Conner chuckled as he dipped below the clouds.

Conner saw the house approaching on his radar and he saw that everything was clear so he began flying just over the trees at mach twenty. A path of destruction was carved through the forest and as the jet flew over the house, all of the windows shattered and the house almost collapsed.

Conner immediately pulled the control stick back, if this was a normal F-22 it probably would have broken apart from initiating such a sharp climb at such high speeds but it wasn't a normal F-22 and his enhanced biology, intense training and Tek suit allowed him to handle the insane g-forces.

Conner kept climbing before he was at a decent distance and pulled the control stick back and he did a loop in the air so he was facing the way he came but he was upside down. Conner flipped the jet back over and began flying back to the house, once he was in range he leveled the house with a strafe from the 20mm cannons mounted to the jet.

Conner turned back around and hovered over the house in VTOL mode to scan the area for survivors with the HMDS System.

“Zero life signs detected."

Conner smirked and flew up before disengaging VTOL mode and ripping across the sky. The roar of the jet echoed before multiple sonic booms shook the sky.

“With all due respect, General, don't you think I should be helping you guys fix this mess?"

“Colonel David Simmons! You need to remain in that sector…." Ares let out a loud roar causing Conner to lose his train of thought. “Ares! Your six!" Conner shouted as one of the escaped gigas tried to sneak up on Ares. Conner could hear the sound of David moving around on the other line.

Ares let out another roar. “YOU THINK YOU CAN SNEAK UP ON ME!?" Ares thundered to the giga that had tried to sneak up behind him. Ares side stepped and let out his distinct chuffing sound before snarling as he and the giga circled each other.

Conner grumbled as Ares finally tackled the giganotosaurus that had been giving them so much grief, Ares easily dwarfed the fossil accurate giga.

“Conner lookout!" Daniella shouted as three fossil accurate utahraptors lunged at him.

Conner side stepped and raised his left arm causing his Tek suit to lock on and fire three shock bolts instantly immobilizing the three raptors, multiple ACU soldiers moved in and restrained the raptors.

“Everything is fine… I have my dragon, two indoms, two rexes, two gigas and a whole slew of soldiers out here. Diana is missing! That Indoraptor is imprinted to you, before she ripped out her tracking implant I could see that she was likely headed for your house." Conner said over the thunderous sounds of all six of the dinosaurs he raised walking and fighting with escaped assets.

“SHE WHAT!" David exclaimed over the call as he started to panic “She'll kill me if she finds me!" he added as he began to panic even more.

“Colonel!" Conner shouted as he clambered onto Ares' Tek saddle “The reason why I had you wearing a Tek suit when she reached adolescents was more a safety precaution… I highly doubt she'll kill you but I would still be cautious. I will try to get units on standby, I still want her to trust you so you'll be on your own for now because we are very overwhelmed." Conner sighed happily as his dragon joined him on the back of the indom. “If things get hairy you have that shock charge that will knock her out instantly, just be careful." He added before chuckling as the dragon began nibbling at his earlobe.

David sighed over the call, “Well… if she doesn't kill me then I'll see you two around."

“Daniella! Quit it!" Conner exclaimed with a laugh. “Watch yourself Dave… I've found a lot of rats in our ranks… be careful who you trust." Conner said in a slightly hushed tone before ending the call.

“Alright!" Conner said loudly as they got the creatures in this area packed up. “We need to keep moving, this is bad." Conner said as he looked at the tracker map.

The process of recapturing every escaped asset was becoming more difficult as the days went by and to everyone's horror, the tracking implants ended up being sabotaged so Shadow Company was now resorting to using satellite and reports from civilians to try and track down these creatures.

Conner planted his forehead into his steering wheel, causing his baseball cap to be knocked off his head and the horn to beep loudly as he drove. Conner grabbed his hat and put it back on his head and grabbed his sunglasses. They had been on his hat and he put them back on his head over his hat because it was dark and he didn't need sunglasses.

Conner tapped at the infotainment system and moved to his 'AppleCarplay' application. His phone was technically an iPhone but he had modified it and only bought it because he liked iPhones and it was decent software to start with and upgrade. Conner moved over to his contacts as his AI continued to drive, he tapped the contact 'David Simmons' and called.

“Don't let my faith in you be a horrible misjudgment, Diana." Conner said quietly as it continued to ring.

The call was finally answered after an uncomfortable wait and Conner sighed in relief as he heard David's voice. “Yes, Conner?" David said in a very tired sounding voice.

“Oh thank fuck! I started to think that I had made a horrible misjudgment!" Conner chuckled.

“I heard that!" an inhuman but feminine voice snapped from a distance on the other line. The voice sounded similar to what he had heard from some of the larger dromaeosauridae assets.

“Uh wah?" Conner thought his brain was about to fall out of his ears as he stomped the brakes and pulled over. “I'm sorry? WHAT!?" Conner exclaimed in utter shock as his brain connected the dots properly.

Conner heard a chuffing laughter and clearly quadrupedal footsteps accompanied by claw clicks over the speakers of his car. “So all this damn time! You could talk and you never uttered a word! All this time… we could have gone ahead with training for military operations and I wouldn't have had to keep you locked in a damn pen like an animal out of fear that you would just try to kill everyone." Conner was definitely frustrated and it was evident in his tone.

“You never communicated anything." The feminine voice huffed back.

“Because I had no idea that you could actually understand what we were saying." Conner responded in a sharp tone. “You could have been doing field training with David years ago, but instead we did basic obedience training because we had no idea how intelligent you were." Conner sighed. “So David… What the hell happened?"

David let out a chuckle before speaking. “Went onto my back porch to smoke a joint about a half an hour after you ended the call with me. Try and calm my nerves and I heard some rustling in the treeline behind my house but I couldn't see anything. I went back inside after about a minute and just chalked it up to a deer or raccoon or some other wild animal." David let out a sigh as the female creature tried to stifle a laugh. “A few minutes later I realized it was around the time I usually liked to take my night walks, I was slightly worried so I grabbed my service pistol."

“Your SIG Sauer?" Conner chuckled.

“Yes. I grabbed it and went for a walk through the woods behind my house. The entire time I could feel something watching me and I kept hearing noises behind me. I never heard a single bird or animal call and the bugs close to me would go silent but I could hear bugs in the distance." David let out a huff and it sounded like he sat down on a couch or chair. “I finished my walk and as I started getting close to my house, I heard a stick snap behind me and a very audible 'Shit!'. I fucking took off after that, I got my back door open and as I turned around to close it, I heard the sound of something running on my porch. Before I knew what happened, something tackled me and we rolled like four times and I ended up pinned beneath something big. I looked up to be met with the face of a grinning white Indoraptor with feminine esc features. Diana had stalked me for half an hour because she thought it would be funny." David sighed. “I of course started to panic and I struggled for a moment before I gave up and weakly said for her to just get it over with. I think I waited maybe thirty seconds but it felt like an eternity, I opened my eyes and Diana was frowning. She let out an irritated huff before getting off of me and walking a few paces away and she muttered that I was a fucking moron." David let out a grunt and from the sound of it, something plopped into his lap. “It was a bit of a blur after that, she explained that she could speak, we talked for a while before I wanted to go to bed and that was when she opened my bedroom door, got into bed with me and… yeah."

“Oh… uhm." Conner tried desperately to stifle his laugh but it became a very audible snicker that turned into a coughing laugh. “She didn't take no for an answer, aye?"

“No."

“Ha! Yeah… I know what that's like." Conner chuckled. “Although… that was probably the best thing that ever happened to me." Conner chuckled before putting his car back in gear and signaling back onto the road.

“Computer?"

“Yes?"

“How is the clutch doing?" Conner asked, he had run into some problems with the clutch a while back and he wanted to make sure he had fixed it.

“It's completely fine."

“Alright Dave, I'm going to let you two go. We've apparently got reports of a behemoth carcharodontosaurus so I'm going to deal with that." Conner sighed as he shifted into third gear.

“Ah, that sounds like fun!" David said sarcastically.

“Yeah… cya!" Conner said before ending the call.

A Break… At Last

Chapter 31

Conner grumbled as he trudged through the woods near the last reported sighting of the large theropod. In his hands he held a rifle he had had for a while. It was one of the first weapons that he had bought, it was a Daniel Defence DD5, it was obtained through less than legal means but he didn't give a shit about the stupid gun laws in Canada at the time and he had fixed the laws anyway so a DD5 was perfectly legal now, but getting hold of one was a process… backgrounds checks were very thorough.

The AR-10 rifle had originally been chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, many parts had to be strengthened and had to be scaled up to fit the new round he decided to feed through this gun.

.338 Lapua Magnum, the rounds were Elemental armour piercing… These Elemental rounds made .700 Nitro Express look like a .308 Winchester. Of course the bullets were still smaller than .700 Nitro but there was a shit ton more muzzle energy and stopping power.

Conner stepped over a tree root and pulled the charging handle back partially to check the chamber before dropping the charging handle back and looking down the smart scope with an adjustable eight times zoom. He switched the scope into thermal mode and began looking around the forest. He could have used his helmet's thermal mode but he didn't want to keep turning it off and on constantly, by doing this he could raise the scope to his eye level when he wanted thermal and lower it to look around at the finer details when he needed to.

“Shadow 1-1, Reaper, anything?"

“Nothing so far, Shadow 1-1 dash one, Black Death."

“Roger that." Ares sighed over the comms.

Conner almost tripped over something before looking down, “Ha!" Conner exclaimed as he saw a massive three toed theropod footprint, it was fresh.

Conner immediately raised his rifle to his shoulder and grabbed the vertical foregrip, he began looking around and smiled as he spotted a large thermal signature on his scope. His smart scope was linked to his helmet and he saw the information readout of the creature pop up in the top right hand corner of his heads up display. It was a male carcharodontosaurus.

Conner silently stalked the creature, he followed it to an open clearing right by a road. Conner approached the treeline and all of his cars blocked the carcha from escaping to the road.

Conner raised his rifle and clicked the safety off. The large carnivore snarled at him as it realized it was being boxed in. Conner let his helmet deconstruct so the dinosaur could see him bare his own teeth. The carch seemed slightly surprised but recomposed itself and snarled while taking a step closer.

“I wouldn't do that if I were you." Conner chuckled as he heard very heavy footfalls coming from the forest behind him.

Ares broke from the treeline and looked down at Conner as he approached, he slowly turned his eyes over to stare at the carcha in front of him and he bared his teeth.

The expression on the carcha's face shifted from that of anger, to that of horror as five more theropod carnivores broke from the treeline and glared at him with bared teeth, a smallish dragon came out of the treeline and rested her head on the human's shoulder as she sat behind him.

“Bag 'em and tag 'em boys!" Conner said loudly, a group of thirty soldiers with tranq rifles uncrouched from behind the over one hundred vehicles on the road and clearing and opened fire on the dinosaur. The carch went down in less than ten seconds as the highly potent tranquilizing agent kicked in.

“Who knew that venom from a prehistoric jellyfish would make such an excellent sedative." Conner chuckled as they got the carch loaded up on an asset transport semi trailer, it wasn't his personal semi truck.

Conner had tried for months to contain the massive containment breach but much to his horror, it was becoming impossible to locate them all after the entire tracking system was sabotaged. The only thing Shadow company could do was remove problem dinos when they got a call.

“So… where did you say the pigs were again?" Cameron asked quietly as he held a modernized AK-47 in his hands.

“The damn boars have been damaging my trails and harassing soldiers running training operations near Shadow Company Base Alpha.

“Wild boars are invasive right?" Cameron asked, he was not nearly as knowledgeable as Conner was in terms of wildlife.

“Yes… very fucking invasive, they are so destructive to native flora as well and the cunts are super aggressive." Conner grumbled as he let go of the vertical foregrip on his AR-10 to scratch his beard. “Open season all year round for these assholes as long as your hunting license is valid. Although the position of Prime Minister was kinda shoved into my hands a few years ago so I don't give a shit, wild boar are invasive and need to be removed. That's why I told you to grab your best and most powerful gun." Conner chuckled as Cameron raised his custom AK that had a forty round magazine in it.

Conner had his modified Daniel Defence DD5 chambered in .338 Lapua Magnum with a fifteen round mag in his hands and his FN Scar-17 chambered in 7.62x51mm with a thirty round mag on his back.

Daniella had a modified AR-10 on her back, it was modified so that she could use it in her true form and not have to switch to human form. The trigger guard had a wider spacing away from the trigger and the charging handle was bigger. Daniella also had a brace on her neck so she could steady the weapon against her neck instead of trying to brace it on her shoulder and try to curl her neck at an awkward angle.

All three of them stopped in place as the forest became quiet, even the wind went silent. Cameron got nervous but Conner got very irritated. He raised his rifle and chambered a round.

“You want to play this game DO YA!" Conner shouted as he raised his rifle. “COME ON AND SHOW YOURSELF!" Conner snarled. “What ARE YA?" Conner shouted as he raised his right hand and felt around the air. Conner bared his teeth. “Yee naaldlooshii." Conner whispered in anger.

“What?" Cameron asked as he raised his AK.

“By means of it, it goes on all fours. It's Navajo, it's what they call a Skinwalker." Conner grumbled as he began following the dark magical energy. Conner began muttering in a language Cameron couldn't understand.

“Hey blondy!" Daniella chuckled. “Don't piss yourself."

“Fuck off!" Cameron shot back.

“You are a strong witch, I'll give you that." Conner chuckled before he continued speaking in Navajo.

Conner kept walking before he saw it, a large white wolf. He could tell something was off about it though, it was massive and its eyes were literally glowing, not extremely reflective like Daniella's but literally glowing.

Conner raised his rifle and fired, the wolf was hit and it got sent flying. Conner sprinted to the wolf and looked down at it. It had turned into a human male around age forty, his body was covered in weird tattoos and scars that seemed to resemble runes and writing.

“Sorry pal, this is government property and you are trespassing." Conner chuckled in a dead tone before placing the barrel of his rifle to the man's forehead and blowing his head off.

“Ack!" Conner exclaimed as blood sprayed all over him. “That was a horrible idea!" Conner exclaimed as he looked at his rifle that was now dripping with blood.

Conner had gone back home and cleaned up before coming back out and the three of them killed thirty wild boars.

Ares, Alexandra, Athena, Vulcan, Chaos and Ajax each ate some of the meat but most of it was cleaned up by Conner's combat robots that he had at the military base. Each of his dinosaurs had spent a long time in the ocean to wash off the boar smell.

“That's why I didn't get near the bodies, Ares." Conner chuckled as he watched his son thrash around in the water in frustration.

“Hey! The taste was not bad at all but my LORD! They stunk." Ares huffed before dipping his head under the water again.

Conner just shook his head and smiled. Conner heard a yelp of surprise and turned to see Chaos in the middle of tackling Ajax, she stood over the slightly smaller male giga she had pinned on his back and grinned, a sinister twinkle was seen in her green eyes.

Ares and Conner both looked at each other with wide eyes. They never said a word to each other, they both just got up and walked away from the two gigas.

“She does act a lot like Adalinda… doesn't she?" Ares chuckled as they walked into the treeline.

“Yes… Yes she does." Conner said as he shook his head.

“What are you so excited to show me, hun?" Conner asked curiously over the comms as he followed Daniella in her Mustang.

“All you need to do is make that hellkitty behave and follow me." Daniella chuckled over the comms.

Conner sighed before he chirped his police sirens when a California state trooper tried to pull him and Daniella over.

Conner got on his PA system. “Unless you want to deal with Shadow himself… I suggest you fall back!" Conner said in a commanding tone. He downshifted to let his V8 roar, the car spat flames at the cruiser behind him before the officer finally yielded and pulled away. “That's what I thought!" Conner said in a smug tone before putting his PA radio back.

“Why do you have to antagonize? You know how California is with modified cars." Daniella sighed as Conner shifted back up to make his car stop roaring so loud.

“That's the point!" Conner chuckled. “I love stirring the pot. It's always the best when they can't do anything. Go do something productive and arrest someone who is actually terrorizing citizens and not someone who is upsetting Karens who have nothing else better to do."

Daniella pulled into a parking lot for a beach and Conner barely paid any mind to the name of the beach.

Black's Beach, La Jolla, California.

Conner was wearing black shoes, black swimming shorts, a black shirt, a pair of black framed sunglasses with heavily tinted lenses and a black baseball cap.

They had come to California for a friend's hatchday celebration, Adalinda's to be specific.

Adalinda had been very specific on the first day being spent at this California beach, Conner didn't look into it, he had merely let Daniella look into it and as he walked down the beach he realized that he should have looked into this beach.

He began to notice something odd. He was the only person wearing clothing.

“Oh you mother fuckers!" Conner exclaimed as he walked up to Adalinda and the rest of their friends. Conner looked over to Daniella who was looking almost giddy and she wore a smug grin. “Nope! Not taking them off!" Conner said loudly.

“Oh yes you are!" Daniella said smugly as she snapped her toes causing Conner's clothes besides his hat and sunglasses to vanish.

“Fuck! Using my pocket dimension against me!" Conner grumbled as he saw people gawking at his crotch area and his very obvious scars. Gunshot scars, stab wound scars, shrapnel scars and a very obvious draconic matebite scar over his left shoulder. Conner's pocket dimension was where he would store his magical sword.

“Oh wow, you got quite the weapon, Conner." Adalinda chuckled.

“It doubles in size." Conner muttered.

“Oh my!" Adalinda chuckled as she leaned forward to get closer to Conner's crotch.

“Ah! Ah!" Daniella said sternly as she curled around Conner and pushed Adalinda's snout away with her tail. “Mine!" Daniella pointed to Conner's wedding ring before showing off her own. “Remember?" Daniella raised an eyeridge and glared at the larger black dragoness.

Adalinda shook her head and smiled. “Yah yah, you got me." Adalinda chuckled. “But I was only joking, I've got my own little boy toy." Adalinda smiled as she opened her wings to reveal Shane.

Conner gave Shane a wide eyed and knowing look before chuckling.

“Sleeping around was definitely fun but an Elemental always has another half." Adalinda smiled as she produced a flame in her right forepaw, Shane's veins and eyes pulsed neon purple at that same moment.

“So, you wanted to go to a damn nude beach because it would be funny." Conner grumbled as he felt people watching him, thankfully he was careful with who knew his true identity so nobody knew he was the Shadow CEO but he always drew attention due to his large muscular size and over thirty scars.

“Oh come on Conner! Lighten up!" Treena chuckled as she walked over to the group with Kyle being dragged along with her tail wrapped around his waist.

“So, David is here too right?" Conner asked curiously as he started walking towards the water.

“Yeah, he's in the water…" Adalinda chuckled.

Conner gave her a strange look before he saw David and something white was swimming around him. Conner sighed as he saw the head of the female indoraptor breach from the surface and bump David in the chest.

“A bio engineered killing machine who has a soft spot for a human." Treena chuckled.

“Yeah… I had my suspicions when she was around eight but I wasn't quite sure, she reached adulthood around five years ago. Never spoke a fuckin' word until she had escaped and found David." Conner rolled his eyes before he began walking into the water, the heat was starting to irritate him.

The next few hours were probably the most fun Conner had had in years. It was refreshing to finally have a break from all the chaos that had been going on in his life so far.

“Hey Adalinda? How is Shane's driving?" Conner chuckled over the radio as he saw his Lamborghini Veneno weaving through traffic behind him.

“I'm gonna puke!" Adalinda groaned over the comms system he had on each of his vehicles.

Conner saw a black 2017 Dodge Viper ACR following behind Shane, that was Michael driving it, Karyna was riding with Michael. Jacob and Kaida were in a black Ferrari SF90 Spider behind Michael. Kaida and Adalinda had changed to human forms so they could ride in the small supercars.

Daniella pulled up next to Conner in her GT500, Conner revved his Charger causing the front end to jump. Cameron pulled up on the other side of Conner in a black Nissan GTR R35 and revved the engine. Conner smirked before grabbing his two-way radio and counting down. The moment he got to zero they both took off.

Of course the Charger blew the doors off the GTR as Conner had made sure his Charger was the most powerful in his collection.

Conner chuckled as he watched a black Koenigsegg Gemera, a black Lexus LFA and a silver and blue Rimac Nevera shoot past him. David was in the four seat hypercar because Diana wouldn't have been able to fit into anything else besides a truck, she was still learning magic and hadn't quite gotten the hang of shapeshifting yet. Connor was in the black Lexus LFA and Kyle was driving the only full electric car that Conner owned, Treena was with Kyle.

Conner had purchased a few Tesla's but he had filled them all with tannerite and shot them. He had salvaged the batteries from each car and recycled all of the harmful materials. The Rimac Nevera was the only electric car that Conner actually liked and it was the only car that wasn't black, he never said why but Daniella knew it was because of one of his favourite characters from a book he had read when he was younger.

Conner got told he was a basic bitch for having every single car of his besides one to have the same black with dual black racing stripe paint job on each car with the red headlights, red underglow and raised spoiler. His response most of the time was to call them jealous. All of his cars besides the Charger and GT500 were just scaled up so if one car could beat another car, his cars in his collection would still get beaten by that same car but would smoke a regular version. His Bugatti Bolide could smoke his Demon 170 but his Demon 170 would smoke a regular Bugatti Bolide although his Dodge Charger and Daniella's Mustang GT500 would blow the doors off of his Bugatti Bolide.

They had arrived in San Diego, California, a few days ago for Adalinda's hatch day. After that, they had spent a few days in LA before starting their trip to Las Vegas, Nevada.

Conner had told his friends to walk around his garage and pick any car they wanted to drive for the trip they had planned besides the Dodge Charger and Mustang GT500. The group was on their way to The Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino, much to the annoyance of Conner but Adalinda had been insistent that they spend time at the Casino hotel before the game.

Adalinda was a big fan of a game called SkyBall. It was basically Football but for dragons and gryphons. Conner had given in and rented out the penthouse floor of the Cosmopolitan and had rented a VIP room in the Allegiant Stadium, the SkyBall finals game was being hosted in that stadium and Adalinda was very enthusiastic about seeing this game.

Conner would have died from the price when he was a teen, a few hundred thousand dollars was chump change to him now.

“The penthouse private garage is reserved by Mr., Mrs. Stephens and friends, what is your name, sir."

“Mr. Stephens." Conner said gruffly as he stepped out of his Charger and tapped his wrist screen and showed the lizard his ID and reservation receipt. All of his cars shut off their internal combustion engines and the doors opened.

“I would-"

“I drive the Charger because it is my favourite of my cars, this is just a fraction of my collection." Conner cut the concierge off because he knew what was coming.

“These cars can park themselves but you and your fellow coworkers can be of service in any other way. I only let my friends, family and wife." Conner wrapped his arm around Daniella's neck as he said wife, Daniella shifted back into dragon form just as he wrapped his arm around her. “Touch my cars. I'm sorry for being rude or direct, but these vehicles are very expensive and very powerful. I know how I would behave if I was given the key to a multi million dollar car with thousands of horsepower."

“I understand sir, please follow me. Oh my." The concierge looked surprised as each of Conner's cars began moving forwards and the doors closed automatically as they entered the private parking area. The vehicles lowered after they parked due to smart suspension. The suspension worked similar to bags but they still had coilovers and the suspension would adjust from the flow of fluid rather than air.

“Like I said… Expensive." Conner chuckled as he followed the concierge to their rooms. Kaida and Adalinda switched back to dragons before following with the rest of the group.

The concierge seemed to hesitate when he saw Diana, he relaxed a little when Diana pulled a phone out of her harness pocket and checked the time.

“Shadow Company asset, she is on leave right now like the rest of us." Conner said as he gave the concierge a look.

The white indoraptor with a golden strip running down her sides gave the lizard the least intimidating smile she could muster. The lizard sighed before waving them along with him.

The group followed the male lizardfolk to the penthouse floor and Conner smiled and thanked him before opening the door to his room.

Conner saw Diana thank the lizardfolk and he laughed at the shocked expression on the lizard's face when the indoraptor spoke.

Chapter 32

“This place is gorgeous Conner!" Daniella laughed as she walked around the room. “It's almost as nice as our bedroom at home."

Conner smiled as he watched the dragon sniff around the room like a curious animal investigating a new space. Of course Daniella was an animal but so was he. The thing that separated humanoids, dragons, gryphons and lizardfolk from the rest of the animals on Earth was the fact that they were capable of critical thinking, questioning everything. Why did they exist, what are those bright lights in the night sky, a thirst for knowledge and the want to explore and experience new things. They were all called people. A few changes in the legal system had been made after Conner made it legal for all apex species to marry each other. Human trafficking for example, was changed to person trafficking. Little things so that all of the people in society were considered equal, legally.

Conner chuckled as he saw Daniella scamper around the room like a child, questing snout poking into every nook and cranny.

“You have no idea how adorable you look right now." Conner smiled as he watched the dragon.

Daniella smiled before inconspicuously aiming her hind end in his direction as she continued to 'explore'.

She looked back at him with a wide smile before lifting her tail and wiggling her shapely rear at Conner. “How about now?" Daniella asked in a sultry tone as she swayed her hips to and fro.

Conner's eyes went wide and his hands shot down to cover his crotch but it was too late, Daniella had already seen a very noticeable bulge in his pants.

The room was dark and Conner's black clothing had done a decent job of concealing it but Conner was fairly well endowed for a human and it was always noticeable for the dragon and his flustered expression spoke volumes.

“With me, my human." Daniella said in a low and sexy tone as she walked down the hall of the room to the private pool area.

Daniella's harness hit the ground with a soft thump as she stood next to the pool, she placed her phone on a lounge chair face up.

“Clothes off, please?" Daniella said with a smile as she wiggled her rear with her tail raised in Conner's direction.

Conner sighed before taking his hat and sunglasses off of his head and undoing his belt.

Daniella looked back at Conner as he got up behind the dragon and hugged her tail, Conner lined up his manhood to the dragon's vent and pushed his hips forward slowly.

She let out a growl before pushing her haunches back into Conner causing him to grunt as he hilted himself inside her heated entrance. Daniella gave him a squeeze with her egg laying muscles before pulling her hips forward and pushing back into him.

Daniella coiled her tail around Conner's left arm before letting out a loud moan as he gripped her hips tightly and began thrusting into her with quick and hard thrusts.

Daniella pushed her hips back in time with his own thrusts forward. Each time their hips met, it would cause Daniella's entire body to shake.

Daniella opened her mouth and began to pant hard as her tongue lolled out of her open maw.

Conner leaned forward and wrapped his arms around Daniella's middle before speeding up, she lowered her chest to the pool deck floor.

“You feel ssssoooo goood!" Daniella moaned as Conner continued to ravage her vagina from behind, cowgirl was still her favourite position but doggystyle had its charm.

“You feel g-good too." Conner whispered into Daniella's ear before he began to straighten back up.

Daniella smiled before giving Conner a hard squeeze, this caused his rhythm to be thrown off. Conner quickly composed him and got back into his rhythm.

Conner sucked in a breath as it started getting harder to thrust in as Daniella's passage tightened. Daniella tensed up and let out a squeak as she came hard.

Conner pushed through the rippling and pulling motions of her orgasm as draconic fluids dripped onto the pool deck beneath them. This caused Daniella's orgasm to intensify as a result of Conner not slowing down and she almost collapsed.

Daniella came down from her euphoric highs and was slightly surprised that Conner was still going strong, although not too surprised because the average human could last longer than the average dragon, but dragons could orgasm more times in a row than humans could. Although Conner was an exception as he could orgasm three times before he got tired. Four was his absolute limit.

The dragon finally composed herself and began pushing back in time with Conner's thrusts, the lewd slapping sounds echoing across the pool room.

Daniella's moans had gotten louder and Conner kinda hoped these walls were soundproof, Cameron and his wife were in the next room over. Conner of course found it hilarious every time someone had stumbled upon them while doing the deed, it was still very awkward.

“A-are… you close yet?" Daniella squeaked breathlessly.

“N-no, not reallY, why?" Conner asked in between panting breaths.

“EEEP!" Daniella let out a loud squeak that ended in a loud moan as she came a second time, this time her legs gave out and they both collapsed to the floor. Conner hesitated for a second but Daniella wrapped her tail around his waist and pulled him into her so he continued to pound her wet love tunnel as it tried desperately to squeeze an orgasm out of him. Daniella gave Conner a squeeze with her tail before closing her eyes and riding out the wonderful feelings.

Daniella finally came down from her second orgasm but she already felt close again and Conner had sped up even more.

Even though it felt wonderful for Daniella to lie motionless and let Conner ravage her silken passage, she hated it and she knew Conner did not like a girl who would starfish on the bed and do absolutely nothing.

Daniella began getting up and she held Conner tight with her tail so he wouldn't slip out. She planted her feet and loosened her grip on Conner and began pushing back in time with his thrusts again.

“You really don't like not doing anything." Conner chuckled.

Daniella looked back at Conner and gave him a wide toothy grin before giving him a hard squeeze, this threw a wrench in his rhythm.

Conner composed himself and locked his hands in the crook where her thighs met her body and began fucking her as fast as her could.

This caused Daniella to squeeze her eyes shut and slip her claws out and she began scratching deep gouges into the floor.

“Cum in me Conner! I want to feel your seed fill me up!" Daniella moaned loudly in pleasure as she felt Conner's movements become more erratic and rough.

Daniella's words caused Conner to fall over the edge and he came HARD. Daniella let out a snarl and spat flame across the pool deck as she came along with him.

While Daniella was lost in the throes of pleasure, she barely noticed an emptiness in her passage and a splash was heard.

As Conner finally finished pumping into the dragon, his legs became wobbly and he tried to find something to brace himself against but his right foot had already been very close to the edge of the pool and he fell in with a very loud and comical splash.

Daniella had collapsed to the floor… Again. She turned her head to look behind her and noticed that Conner was not there and the water in the pool was rippling, that's when she noticed her right side was slightly wet and the pool deck had water everywhere.

Daniella was confused before she remembered hearing a splash and she closed her nictitating membranes(third eyelid) and poked her head underwater.

Conner was sitting cross legged at the bottom of the pool, and turned to look at her as she dunked her head underwater and Conner's eyes were slitted and crimson red.

With shapeshifting magic you could choose to fully change form or change parts of your body, Conner had changed just his eyes to draconic eyes so he could use the nictitating membrane to keep the chlorine out of his eyes.

Daniella rolled her eyes as Conner gave her the stink eye.

Conner surfaced five minutes later, Daniella nuzzled his chest and gave him a kiss on the lips after he fully got out of the water.

“Love you." Daniella said happily.

“I love you more." Conner chuckled as he walked back into the main area of the room after he put his clothes back on.

Daniella rolled her eyes as he left the pool room. 'I think it's either equal or I love YOU more if anything.' Daniella thought to herself with a happy smile.

Conner picked up his phone after he had gotten everything situated in the bedroom and sighed. Cameron had texted him saying 'you guys are fucking loud'.

“Whoops." Conner chuckled as he texted back. 'You guys! Mcscuse the fuck outta me! She's loud!'

“Ah! The love birds finally decided to join us on the casino floor." Adalinda chuckled and Daniella smacked Conner in the ass with her tail.

“Oi! I didn't say shit! Cameron fuckin' heard you! You only have yourself to blame, hun!" Conner said in a peeved tone.

Conner sighed before giving everyone each ten thousand dollars. “If you want to have fun, go play blackjack or poker. I, on the other hand, will be playing roulette." Conner grabbed some cash. “I know a trick to that game and I'll at least make the money I've spent on the casino floor back." Conner muttered as he walked over to an empty roulette table.

Conner sat down in the seat and waited for the dealer to drop the ball, Conner watched the ball carefully before placing his bet. The dealer gave him a funny look and Conner just smiled at the dealer as the ball landed and Conner's bet was successful.

“'All luck,' they say." Conner chuckled as he waited for the ball to drop before placing his bet a few seconds after.

His bet was yet again successful. The dealer gave him a look again. Conner could tell they were getting suspicious of him.

“If I wanted to be making money, I would be at home designing new weapon blueprints or organizing mining operations." Conner chuckled to the dealer.

Conner spent a few more minutes playing until he made all the money that he had given his friends back and cashed them in before pulling out ten thousand and going over to his friends at blackjack.

Conner saw that roulette dealer talking with a manager, the manager looked at the dealer before shaking his head. Conner had not broken any laws but what he had done was any easy way to piss off a casino and have you kicked out.

He of course had done speed traps constantly when he first started his police training. He had gotten so good at estimating someone's speed that he was as accurate as a properly calibrated radar gun.

He would estimate how fast the ball was moving and where it was on the roulette wheel before predicting where it would land. He had gotten very good at it.

Conner knew the casino wouldn't kick him out because he had spent a lot of money on the rooms and because of the upcoming Skyball game, the penthouse rooms were around fifty thousand each.

He had spent over three hundred thousand on just the rooms alone, he was probably going to be out a few thousand on the floor too if he didn't get a good hand on one of the blackjack games.

The group spent the next few hours having fun before they each retired to their rooms for the night. No casino workers approached Conner but they did keep an eye on him until he left the casino floor.
