104 IT'S ALIVEEEEEE!!!!

𝘒𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘬, 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘬.

After a short pause, the door in front of me is swung open to reveal a few spider bots staring at me with various implements of malicious intent jutting out of their bodies and pointed at me.

"Take me to your leader," I demand of them, putting on a deep voice because it's fun.

Obviously, they don't really respond. Being brains stuffed into spider robots kind of damages their conversational abilities a little bit, but they do chitter about and make some weird movements that don't really mean anything to me.

Evidently though, it was some sort of communication thing as Sibby soon appears, wearing a lovely smile on her face as she does so.

"Aha!~ Just the woman I was looking for,~ you ran off before I could tell you about my test for Capitan Edge.~" I finish my sentence pouting at her.

She gives me a smirk in response and turns on her heel, gesturing with her head for me to follow her, but I get a better idea and jump on her back instead.

Seeing as I actually stay on her back, she's clearly fine with it so I start groping her breasts while I'm at it.

I mean, why not right? There just out in the open like that, how could I resist?

Mmmmm, squishy.~

What was I saying?

Right!

"It's a real shame you left early,~" I moan at her as I continue to fondle her, power assisted, perfectly firm breasts, "you missed his face when I gave him my test,~ I'm sure you would have got a crack out of it.~"

When she turns her head slightly, she doesn't even seem to be acknowledging my wandering hands and just raises a single brow in question, causing a savage smile to grow on my face.

"My test for him is to do your test again, but with me hunting him this time.~" As I speak, I stare intently at Siberian's face, watching carefully to see if she likes the idea as much as I thought she would.

Her glowing golden eyes widen fractionally before a feral smile matching my own takes form on her striped face.

"You like that huh?~ So far I just brought him down to three full fingers and I'm just letting him stew in fear and paranoia for now,~" I say before remembering the best part, "oh! And you know the best bit? I left a little tendril of my power attached to the back of his head so that every time he turns his head to fast he will think he's seeing me out of the corner of his eye!~ Aren't I just the smartest?~ Hahaha!~"

I have to wrap my legs tightly around her waist to avoid falling off her back as I dissolve into a fit of laughter, finding the memory of watching T spinning around thinking I'm behind him too funny to even continue groping Sibby.

He just looked so schizophrenic, I ended up spending a solid half hour just watching him from a distance and laughing.

You know, I should record it and post it online. So long as there's no actual gore or death in the video PHO mods probably won't take it down, and even then, there's always FoolsNet to fall back on.

Speaking of, my shit should be arriving soonish, so I should probably find a tall building to sit on and just face west until I see the bike approaching.

It's not like there's anyone else moving to the city right now, because ever since Bonesaw came about, suddenly nobody wants to even 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 with the Nine, let alone kill them.

Because if Bonesaw has some last fuck you plague, then she would probably also be the only one capable of curing it.

There's a reason Wet Tinkers are feared second only to Masters.

Though personally, I wonder why more people aren't more afraid of Narwhal. Because she can literally just cast the mythical 'get fucked' spell and instantly kill anyone she looks at.

Well, I'm sure there's more specifics and now that I think about it, I'd probably be fine-ish, but still, the point stands.

I'm brought out of my thoughts by the sound of knocking and I look up to see Sibby knocking on the door to Bonesaw's lab, immediately making me curious.

It's not like Sibby to knock after all, so there's probably a reason for that.

"Just gimme a minute! I'm almost done!" Bonesaw's muffled voice sounds out from beyond the door and my intrigue immediately intensifies.

Though, I do hastily remember to get off Siberian before Bonesaw opens the door, because as cute as Bonesaw is when she's embarrassed, I still prefer 'excited and bloody' Bonesaw the most.

I wonder what her actual name is? Bonesaw isn't really a name after all, hence why I just call her Chibi.

Maybe Grace? She seems like she could be a Grace, or an Annie, short for Annabeth?

Either way, the girl in question suddenly opens the door a crack and sticks her head out, showing off that adorable thousand watt smile of hers.

"I've got a surprise for you big sister! It took me a while to figure it all out, but I think you'll love it!" She can hardly hold back her excitement even though 𝘐'𝘮 the one who's actually receiving the gift.

"Well, you haven't let me down yet.~ Your murder salt is doing amazing, though I think they're catching on by now, but I still think you've like, halved the population by yourself, which is waaay better than Shatter did, so congrats on that!~"

She preens under the praise that would leave most people with deep rooted psychological trauma, but she quickly shakes that off in order to swing the door open with some flair.

"Well, I don't know about all that," she shyly states before gesturing to what lies beyond the door and regaining her energy, "surprise!!"

Looking into her lab, my jaw drops and I am struck genuinely speechless for at least five solid minutes from what I see.

Holy. Mother. Fucking. God. 𝘋𝘢𝘺𝘶𝘮.

I can practically 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 the stars in my eyes as I approach what would probably horrify most people.

It's a person, if she can even be called as such anymore.

I recognise her face to be Black Queen's, but only the upper half. The lower half of her face has been replaced by an animals snout and jaw, deadly teeth and all with clear lines of stitching going across her face, just under the eyes.

The contrast from normal, human skin to fluffy black animal skin is odd, but I like it.

Below the jaw, the neck, shoulders and parts of the arms are also thick and fluffy, while her chest is distinctly human, for the most part, with fur only trailing down the sides of her torso, clearly visible by the fact she's naked.

Further down, her legs are similar to her arms in that they only have patches of fur, while her feet, much like her hands, have been fully replaced by animal paws.

That's a definite plus for her at least, because I'm pretty sure she didn't have hands, but that could have just as easily been someone else.

And lastly, from her neck, up the back of her head and all the way to the top of her forehead, like a hood, has also been replaced with animal features. Meaning she no longer has her long black hair, instead she has short black fur, and a pair of... cute, fluffy and black, circular ears.

She really, actually did it.

Bonesaw made a fucking human-bear hybrid!

And it's freakin' awesome!

I don't care if there's still fresh blood clearly decorating the lines of stitching or about the fact that she's still bleeding in some places, this is the single greatest thing I have ever seen.

"...Chibi," I finally speak up after staring in silence for a while, causing the girl to glance at me nervously as I speak in a dead serious voice, "this is the second greatest thing I have ever seen in my life."

Her body slumps for a moment as I give her a joyful smile, relieved that I am happy with her surprise.

She rapidly starts listing off all of the modifications and surgeries she's done to the bear woman, but as much as I try, and I really do try, I cannot understand anything she is talking about.

Why does biology have so many big words?

There should be a rule in science, or just the English language in general that you're not allowed to have words with more than five syllables, because some of the things she says are just absurd.

I can't even give an example because I've already forgotten how to say any of them.

Either way, I let her just keep rattling off information as I study the woman in question for a little bit longer.

She's just staring dead ahead, so I'm assuming Chibi has put some kind of control device or drug in her, or she's just asleep and being forced to stand or something, I don't know, I'm not a Tinker.

Giving her bare body an appraising look, I can't help but lament the fact that while her bear features 𝘥𝘰 make her look incredibly cute, she just doesn't really have a very attractive body.

I'd say she was probably a six when she was pure human, now she's like a six but with extras, except the extras make me see her more like a cute pet than a potential sex partner.

I mean, I'm pretty sure there are some people who are into that in California, I think.

I'm pretty sure I saw an article about it at some point. I think they were called furries? Something like that anyway, I don't know. It's not like it's a common thing, but the point is that I am strictly interested in human people.

...Then again, maybe just once, just so I can say that I've done it? Because even if she isn't wholly my type, the fact that she's so much bigger now is at least a little hot. I mean, she's got to be somewhere around six and a half feet tall and built like an Amazonian.

Eh, who knows. She might not even be alive by the time we leave, there are still a couple tests to go for her yet.

Oh, speaking of.

"Hey Tiger, you still haven't given her your test right?" I ask once Chibi has finished with her dialog and set off to find some bear person sized clothes, while nodding to the bear woman in question.

She raises an eyebrow in response, and I never really thought about it, but Sibby has an incredibly expressive face, though maybe it's something she learnt to do, being mute and all.

"Well, I know you always do the same test, but I figure that there's a unique opportunity to add a little extra to it this time.~" Mischief is clear in my tone, and her eyes narrow slightly.

She's intrigued, but also slightly unhappy at the prospect of me telling her to change up her game.

Luckily for our relationship, I'm not planning on suggesting anything like that, just a little addition.

"Don't get your non existent panties in a bunch, Sexy. All I'm suggesting is that you can have Queenie here hunt down 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 candidate as you hunt down 𝘩𝘦𝘳.~ Sounds fun right?~"

She thinks on it for a moment, and I almost think she's going to reject me before she finally nods her head and turns to give Queenie a contemplative look.

...Ok I have no idea what she's thinking now, but I'm sure whatever it is will work out well in the end.

That's when Chibi walks back into the room, only having a pair of cloths instead of actual clothes and without offering an explanation at all, she proceeds to use a modified staple gun to cover Queenies' private parts with the cloth.

I take note to not give the Chibi any sort of decision making power over what I wear, ever.

I might be adverse to pain, and even enjoy it sometimes, but I don't want simple blank clothes stapled to my body thank you very much.

I like my fashion to be fashionable.

"Alright! I'll wake her up now!" Chibi exclaims as a spider bot brings a syringe over to her and Siberian moves over to place a hand on her shoulder, confusing me a little as to why.

Moral support? No, that doesn't seem like something she would do, nor something Chibi would need.

I feel like I'm missing something, but I don't know what and I know that shooting in the dark is pointless so I just ignore the feeling to focus on the bear woman.

...I wonder if she can reproduce still? And if the babies would have any bear traits, because if they would then this would technically be a whole new species that Chibi invented, but I think it's unlikely.

Bonesaw injects her concoction into the bear woman and in no time at all, she seems to start regaining consciousness. Starting with just blearily blinking her eyes, she slowly starts to gain more motor control.

Her limbs twitch and her neck twists side to side a little before her entire body shudders and then stills.

Right as I'm wondering if something went wrong, she moves again, raising one of her front paws and staring down at it with a pair of dead, emotionless eyes.

She doesn't say a single word and her face doesn't twitch at all, but tears start flowing regardless as she examines what she has become.

I don't know why she's crying though, this is definitely an improvement after all, but eventually she gathers herself enough to look around the room, taking in the sight of all three of us staring at her like she's a zoo animal.

...Ok I kind of get why she'd be upset now.

The tears don't stop flowing, even as her face remains neutral, but one thing does change and noticing it brings a feral, excited grin to my face.

She laments what she has become, sure.

But she's not scared.

She hasn't given up.

I can see it in her eyes, burning brightly.

The will to live.

Hehehahaha!

Ahhh~ that determination to survive!~

Ahhhn~ it's beautiful.~

I knew there was a good reason I wanted her to be my candidate at the start.

She truly is a gem.~

=================

A/N: He~llo! Dear readers!

FYI, keep in mind that it's 2008, the furry movement isn't as big here as it is now, and, like always, I actually did research this and the first furry convention I could find out about was held in California, in 1985(I think).

But that was apparently different to what it is now, cuz apparently it used to just be people liking human-animal stories and it was only in the mid nineties that there was a big debate in the community for just how 'adult' the fandom should be, evidently the horny furries won that debate XD

Also, another fyi for any furries reading this, I ain't a hater of furries. You get off to whatever you wanna get off to. In fact, I don't really have any problem with any fetishes. actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I don't even get bothered when people push their fetishes in my face or anything, so there's really no point in me saying a lot of what I was going to say.... whatever, ignore me.
