The morning sun was still low over the width of the Su’Ra River, and dozens of vessels crowded the invisible and rarely obeyed lanes of travel as they moved in and out of Kifu’Nemhat, the steady winds blowing in from the Sobe’kaimun Sea making travel upriver a mostly painless affair. Usually. Already the shimmer of heat on the far horizon to the south formed, the day’s scorching heat already well...

A Brief Conversation with Momo-chan Jennifer Tempest glared silently at the glistening, latex-covered figure in the restraint chair in front of her. The only part of the woman that wasn’t coated entirely in black, polished latex was her head, which was mostly covered by her heavy-duty gas mask, the dark lenses staring back at Jennifer with a cold detachment. The woman’s hair was a hot pink...

Epilogue – Boredom and Boardings Shi instinctively tried to stretch as she awoke, but found that she was just as tightly restrained as she was the last time she had risen from her catnap. She opened her eyes, found only darkness once more, wiggled her ears, heard only the muted, faint hum of the ship’s power core and engines through the rubber plugs in her ears, then sighed around the big...
Chapter 10 – Warm Embrace Wiping sweat from her brow, feeling the Seal-Tech spreading upward over the curve of her breasts and downward over her pubic mound, Shi drew her big boy once again, thumbing the hammer to half-cock and rolled the cylinder. “This corridor…it’s straight above the lower decks’ central corridor, right? Nothing vital between here and the engineering level? Not that...
Chapter 9 – A Mad Dash for Freedom Shi heard the squeak of expanding rubber at the same time as something dark suddenly loomed behind Briar, shaped vaguely like a spacesuit. Instinctively, Shi modified the flow of her magic in her mind, pulling the flames from her left hand. Shi grabbed Briar’s recently cleared arm and pulled him behind her as Shi willed the remaining fire to erupt from...
Chapter 8 – Discoveries and Desperation The hammer fell, and the corridor was bathed in brilliant orange and blue light as a spiraling streak of fire erupted from the revolver’s barrel. The fire grew, splitting into a trio of intertwined trails of flame that took on a serpentine visage, each roaring down the corridor as they spun about one another, the sound more intense than even Kaylee’s...
Chapter 7 – Escape Route “What is this stuff?” Murissa snarled, angrily throwing her helmet to the floor before starting to strip out of her suit. “Some new alien intent on consuming everything?” Hilde offered, shaking her gloves off and dropping them in with the rest of the ruined gear. The black rubbery stuff had splattered all over their equipment, but for the moment hadn’t spread...
Chapter 6 – A Sticky Situation “Talk to me, Hilde! What’s going on?” Shi shouted over the rising cacophony of the ship around them. Hilde was already trying the console she had been setting up on, hammering the buttons and shaking her head. “Can’t get anything for sure until the system is fully up and running. It looks like everything is coming online, though. Something triggered it, I...
