Lifeboat : Intromission


This is not the story of the Exoplanet tribute Society's plan of attack on the orbital station above the frontier planet Mariachi-2, of the plan to protest by shutting down the post nuclear reactor, leading to the nuclear meltdown of the nuclear reactor, death of the place and a twelve nearby ship, and a rain of orbital rubble that devastated the fragile and primitive ecosystem of the very planet they were trying to protect. You can get that story from the news and, someday I'm sure, the account book.

This is not the story of how my female parent, my sister, and I escaped that catastrophe, of how the starliner Pegasus II tried to escape the disaster into FTL only to be destroyed by dust, of our flight to and rendezvous at the lifeboats, of the 24-person lifeboat jettisoning with just the three of us aboard. There are at least a dozen such chronicle from the 87 survivors from the Peg, and about, to be honest, are more compelling.

This is not the story of the first off tumultuous hours after the lifeboat launched, of our lifeboat getting pummeled with debris from the Peg, tumbling and burning for hours before it stabilized while we cried and screamed, vomiting and pissing ourselves in sheer terror before the lifeboat finally stabilized and we collapsed into an run down sopor. I never want to revisit those twelve hours again so long as I live.

No, this is the tale of the three months after that, the time between waking up on the lifeboat and getting picked up two calendar month ago by a patrol ship out on the edge of explore distance. The history of what happened with my female parent, my babe, and I. It is a very personal story, not to be released before my decease, but one that is very important to me. Even if no one else ever gets to read it, I wanted it to be written.

Before we get to that story, let me introduce the cast of fictitious character, my family.

We'll offset with my dad. His name was Michael Bloom, and he was 55 when he died down on Mariachi-2. Long before I was born, he grew up on Hestia-3, went to college, got his MBA, got married, and started working in bodied finance. They had a couple of kids, but I guess things just gradually started to pass apart. My dad took a new job with a biotechnology company on Podarok-2 where he met my mother, the concluding nail in the coffin for his marriage. He and my mom got hook up with soon after the divorce, I was born a twelvemonth later, and my sister was born a year after that. He was a near dad, and seemed to be a good married man, although he poured so much energy into his work that we all variety of had to make the most of the clock time he had unblock. And he was apparently great at what he did, because he got picked to be an executive Vice President of this big financial services business firm on Minos-4 not long before we took our trip. That's why we took it - he was taking a break between line to finally relish some time with his family. He was a skilful guy.

My mom is Anne blooming, she's 37 but looks 25, about 168cm tall and maybe 65 kilos. She was a teen knockout queen on Podarok-2, but her menage couldn't afford the variety of tradition inherited improvements needed for her to make a career out of it, so after high-pitched schoolhouse she went and got a job as a receptionist. My dad picked her to be his new escritoire on sight, a for sure preindication that he had already mentally left his matrimony. She kept working until after my sister was born, by that point Dad was really raking it in. She was a lady of the house after that, but the racy, glamourous kind. I don't ever remember her lifting her deal to do real housework - that's why we had a household staff. Her briny job was to host party and look good, and she managed both with a great signified of style and an amazing hourglass figure that was probably 80 % cancel and 20 % biomed touchup. She never got spoiled, she is still a hapless kid from the hills in her essence, she's a good mom, and from everything I saw she was a good wife, too.

My name is Andrew Jackson bloom. I turned 17 criterion years old a few month before all this happened, and should have started my fourth yr of highschool school day about a month ago. I was genetically engineered at birth and"updated"periodically ever since, just like 99.99 % of the human population, but while my upgrades were truly top shelf, I've always lacked the kind of motivating that would really let me live up to my potency. So while I am 180cm tall and 85kg of tip, athletic muscle, I'd say I'm really a pretty normal teenager. well, I am a niggling strange in one big way. Or two slightly low shipway, depending on the occasion. I mentioned that Dad worked for a big biotechnology companionship, and somehow he was allowed to fall in me some"special features ”, things they had invented but would never liberate. Things like heighten pheromones, and testes that can churn out more semen than a typical college frat home. Oh, and two dicks. Sometimes.

I have a regular penis. fountainhead, not regular - it's about 15cm long when hitch and more than than 30cm erect, and a little Sir Thomas More than 6cm across. I call it Honest Johnson. But it is basically a regular penis. Underneath it is where things get complicated.

The hereditary engineers at the company gave me a few new muscles, a few new sphincters, and a second, more elastic member. about of the meter, I keep those sphincter shut with no more effort or thought than you use to keep your asshole closed, and even during sex it is nothing at all to keep Tricky Dick hidden away. The enhanced elasticity lets it concordat really minuscule when not in use. But if I want to, and if Honest Lyndon Baines Johnson isn't already too set up ( it gets complicated, trust me ), a barely visible"naut mi"in my scrotum opens up and Tricky Dick joins the party. The but literal hang-up is that I only have so lots blood, so when both of the boys are in caper they're only about 24cm long and 5cm midst. But they look and function more or less identically, one stacked over the other.

By the way, this isn't all as outstanding as it sounds. I had to learn to control all that as a toddler, and until then apparently my parents had some really interesting experiences at bath time and when changing my diapers. And while my pheromones and genetically-ensured athletic good looking kept me reasonably popular with the ladies, most don't want anything to do with a hawkshaw that size, much lupus erythematosus two. By the time I was 15, I had successfully gotten three girlfriend to have a personal interest in my junk, and two of them had called it quits on the spot - the third was intrigued and resulted in a brief but very educational relationship. On the downside, one of the former two also talked about me to her friends, which quickly spread, earning me the nickname of"Tommy Two-Dicks"around school.

By the way, if you are wondering why my Dad gave me this particular proposition"natural endowment ”, I don't really know. I never mustered up the courage to ask him, and for obvious reasons no longer can. My proficient guesswork is that he wanted people to see me as a reflection of him, and section of that included some kind of sexual dominance.

Now before I get to the eternal rest of the story, there is one to a greater extent somebody to credit : my sis, Louis Comfort Tiffany. Tiff was born exactly one measure class after me. My female parent wanted a boy and a daughter, wanted us to be close in age, and thought it would be cute if we shared a birthday. My dad wanted her to be happy and I think just appreciated the efficiency of the arrangement. She also got some significant customized familial enhancements, nothing quite as bizarre as my own… I think. Dad let mom prefer her feature, and I don't think Mom really understood what she was doing. Regardless, tiff has always been incredibly smart and in excellent health, but by the clock time she hit thirteen she could expire for a few age former and attracted the haunting attention of every man ( and many women ) in any elbow room she entered. She's about 157cm tall, maybe 50kg soaking wet, and her proportions are almost supernatural - long of leg and arm, bantam shank, nicely relative nipple and ass, and all perfectly harmonious. Most of my friends ( all of the guys, and many of the girls ) had made passes at her and I was fully mindful of how attractive she was… from a purely academic viewpoint, of course.

So that was us : an overachieving executive Dad, a peach queen escritoire Mom, an underachieving superman, and an elven goddess just coming into her own. A family, pretty wealthy and therefore a little more distant than well-nigh, but glad nonetheless.

Oh, one more matter before we begin : The lifeboat.

The Ceres-Hastings stock of lifeboats were pretty new but also pretty distinctive of those found on the nicer class of starliners. They were designed to get passenger away from the ship as quickly and safely as potential, and then basically just wait for help to go far. They were designed to sustain 24 people alive for 30 days, and not a great deal else - they offered safety, not comfort. They can't really land anywhere with an ambience, and the rider are deliberately locked out of things like sailing to proceed them from accidentally crashing it into the something, so let's just gloss over things like locomotive engine and armor plating and hokey gravity and focalize on what we could actually put our hands on.

The parent section of the lifeboat had 24 acceleration tush in six words of four with an aisle down the heart. There was a crosshatch at the rear by which we had entered, but it literally welded itself shut on launch, so it didn't really exist as a hatch anymore. At the very front there was a small air lock big enough for a unity magnanimous person, and on either side of it a couple of"command"seats with the limited control condition and displays needed to allow for the passengers just enough knowledge and ascendency to abide sane. In between was a small open sphere lined on one side with dispensers for rationing out food and water and a few entrepot lockers with some other supplies, and on the early with a washing, toilet, and shower that could be isolated from each other and the rest of the ship by privacy panels - hygienics wasn't considered all that important but survivors might need to wash unsafe materials off. In the very center of the floor were a twain of panels concealing the location of two automeds.

The front man and the raise division were lined with displays that simulated windows, connected to cameras on the exterior of the armored hull, and the hale blank space was normally kept heated to about 25°C, just a little warmer than formula room temperature. And that was really about it. Again, it was a lifeboat, not a pleasure yacht.

Ok. Let's begin .
