Chapter 3

Elizabeth was coming down from her orgasm. ‘Shit,’ Ray thought if I get out of this without getting arrested I’ll be lucky.’ Looking up Elizabeth saw Ray and a huge smile lit up her face, that is, ‘til she realized that they were both outside, naked, and both of them had just cum. Though a little embarrassed for the moment, Elizabeth didn’t really give a shit, hell if she could feel like this every night she just might go for it.

“Uh, Ray?” She asked as she sat up, “where the hell am I and though I know why we are naked, exactly WHY are we naked?”

“Well,” Ray started, then suddenly saw almost exactly what to say, “It seems you came over last night, apparently what we had at the office wasn’t enough. When you showed up, you seemed almost possessed, damn near tore my clothes off trying to get to me, but then again considering it’s you, I really didn’t mind, though the ground is a little hard.” Ray laughed.

Elizabeth leaned over and kissed ray, “little late to go home, got an extra room? Besides, if I get another wild urge like that, you’ll be right there, true?”

Ray just nodded, he was still having a hard time wrapping his mind around the fact that this gorgeous woman not only wanted to be seen with him, but wanted him. Though still a little suspicious of it being the BLEM’S influence, Ray wasn’t, as they say, about to look a gift horse in the mouth. For the first time since this had all started Ray could actually feel the BLEM that was inside him. For the life of him Ray couldn’t contact the entity, if it was really in him he should be able to talk to it.

Helping Elizabeth up, they both went inside, “It’s a good thing tomorrow is Friday or I’d really be in trouble,” Elizabeth said over her shoulder, “I live on the other side of town, though I didn’t realize that you were this close to the office.”

“I’ve been here for quite some time, it’s just no one has actually realized it,” Ray replied somewhat sheepishly.

“Then again, I have other reasons too.” Ray wasn’t about to reveal that he was a co-owner of the company, but wanted to remain a really, silent partner allowing his long time friend to run the day to day operations as CEO. Nor was Ray about to reveal that he liked having hands on, allowing him to get more done and come up with more ideas to make the company grow. No, he wasn’t about to say anything but shit, he wanted to no one knew he was the other owner except John. His name was in no way connected to the company except as an office worker.

“Well I see you only have one bed so...,” Elizabeth smiled sly and sexily, “I guess we’ll just have to share.” Ray could only stare. Elizabeth went to his bathroom naked, not even bothering to cover up. “I hope you don’t mind,” she said from his bathroom, “but I like to sleep naked. I used to get in trouble as a little girl though, I not a girl anymore. Am I Ray?”

Ray was still in shock what the hell? It was almost as if she had moved in already, dam! She was starting to take over a few things, though with sex like they had it was dam near worth it.

“Uh...,” Ray started, “I pretty much do the same thing, I...,” here the strange thing happened, “find it is freer.”

Ray’s mouth opened when he realized that Elizabeth had said the exact same thing, at the same time as he.

Shaking her head, she tossed her things in his washer along with his. Lying down she smiled and patted the bed beside her. Thank god, Ray thought, that I had a bigger bed put in last week.

Snuggling next to her, Ray was out the moment his eyes closed. Again he was flying, then was on the BLEMS planet. The red Blem was suddenly there, as a host of the entities came floating over a hill. The group separated with just the one approaching him, <It has been much time, we have grown to near the numbers we were when first you came to our world. The Chortons haven’t tried to fully penetrate your protection in some time, we fear they have another plan.> Ray could only nod, after seeing some of them on earth, he too felt that they were about to change their tactics.

Reaching out, Ray started to feel a few faint signals, then after an hour (he thought) he began to feel more.

Dam, Ray thought it feels like they are coming in mass. Looking around the planet, he started to pinpoint all of the boxes he’d left. The last of the first set were still there, but they felt strange. Looking closer, he started to swear, each had been changed to send out and not block. Those sons of a bitch.

He’d adjusted two of the three when he felt even more of the Chortons’ ships closing in. Damn, he had to hurry.

Finally, with the first three done, Ray strengthened the remaining five, carefully going over each. Laughing, Ray felt the invaders were about to have a real surprise. Suddenly, Ray felt a huge disturbance outside the shield he’d erected, then he felt another near the core. Damn it! They’d opened a portal directly outside the shields, right into the planet. It seemed he’d came at the right time.

Reaching out he tried to close the portal but found it was a type of energy he’d never felt, shifting to every type of energy he had access to that might counter it, nothing seemed to work. Damn it! He was going to have to go to the ships again. Telling all the BLEMS, he started for the ships, stopping a moment, he thought they were probably expecting that, shifting he flew beyond the small fleet. On the outer line of ships, he moved in trying to stay as out of sight as he could. Entering the first ship this time was a lot harder, but he managed it. Carefully he moved through the halls and walls, avoiding anything that moved, again he passed his hand over the alien comp he found.

It seemed they were using a higher vibrating energy. It was almost beyond him, though he’d just found two more higher than he’d used before. There was no time to over load now, taking control he activated the ships weapons and started to fire on all the ships in front of him. Taking out the first ten was easy, then he guessed they got wise to him. The other nineteen or so ships turned and started to fire at the ship he was on. ‘Oh shit! Time to go’ he thought.

Shifting to above the planet, he saw all but one of the ships had turned and was firing on the ship he’d left. ‘Hmm, this ship was different.’ Banging his head as he tried to enter the ship, he cursed. Shifting his energy as high as he could, Ray thought he might pass out. Then he was through! The inside of this one was more like a hollow ball. Passing a comp, he saw why, it appeared this was what they called a portal ship, designed to beat his shields.

Growling, Ray went through the systems, hearing the spider aliens screaming that their systems were being compromised. Turning the ship Ray began to open portals into space and inside as many ships as he could. He estimated he’d gotten another ten when he saw a strange wave heading towards the ship he was on, ‘crap not good,’ setting an overload, Ray skipped to the planet, shifting the shield cubes to deflect the wave he felt approaching.

Almost too late, Ray realized that the wave was matched to counter the energy that he was. Barely flashing out in time, millions of miles away from the BLEMS planet. Suddenly, there was a brilliant flash as the hollow ship exploded, taking all but one of the invaders ships with it. Ray was about to return to the planet when he was hit with a bluish beam.

‘What the hell?’ Ray thought as the beam bathed his body. ‘Oh shit!’ The f•©kers got me. Feeling nothing at first, Ray tried to move but found he was almost frozen to the spot he was in. ‘What the hell? I’m in space, things don’t freeze like this, they drift’. The Chorton ship slowed as it extended a small, ramp like platform. Several of the spider like aliens came out and grasped his frozen body bringing it inside.

Once they had him inside, they placed him inside a room with what looked like light beams across the open door way.

An hour later (he thought, he wasn’t sure time was different here) he felt his arms and legs start to move. Finally, with full mobility back, Ray tried to go through the walls, no dice, it appeared part of his senses where still moving too slow.

A moment later a smaller spider being moved to the doorway to look him over, <Ah! good you’re awake Treg Trag, > it thought to him. No matter what, Ray wondered why some words wouldn’t translate, <you have caused our race many problems, you destroyed well over a skret of ships. No being has ever possessed the power you do, nor has an entity ever destroyed as many ships as you have. I am Fret Fron Flee Ton Krar, I will find from where you get this power, then the Queen wishes you to breed her before she eats you. It is a great honor to produce a stronger race of warrior.>

Ray almost vomited, f•©king a spider? Christ, might as well cut his cock off and shove it up his ass. There was no f•©king way that was going to happen. Ray felt within his body, he could feel where the beam was retarding his abilities. Concentrating, he began to push the beam out. An alarm went off on a nearby console, ‘almost there!’ Ray thought. Suddenly another bluish beam hit him. He’d just got them out, trying to erect a shield to block it. He failed, huh? No, not really, feigning passing out, he waited as the, he guessed, scientist spider opened his cage to scan him.

Feeling a lot stronger than before, Ray chopped at the spider as he was thinking of it.

The smaller creature went down fast, too fast for Ray. Taking some wire he saw, Ray wrapped the spider up ‘til he was sure it couldn’t move. Stepping out, Ray began to rid his body of the beam again, when several alarms went off. ‘Shit! Can’t get a dam thing done’, thought Ray, passing his hand over the comp. Ray saw all the spider had learned. Smiling, Ray pushed a surge of energy out, destroying half of the panels that held the memory. A strangled cry came from behind him. <NO! you’ve destroyed contatines of work, I will see you tortured for that Treg Trag before the Queen mates, then I will enjoy watching her devour you!> The spider screamed out it’s thoughts.
