3 Learning between humans

I hadn't screamed. An intriguing sixteen-year-old. And I never knew how did it. I could have screamed like any woman was going to do in a situation like this.

I saw that redhead run out of the hangar, with a shiver. That science officer terrified me. Only there was a Xenoform between us.

My throat ran dry. The cry actually stuck there. The doctor hoped to find some species alive for the study of those invaders. But that? He didn't need to be that alive, did he?

I imagined the reptile aspect. My imagination had managed to create a decent collection of horror films. Oh my god! He was definitely a humanoid shape and his head was out of proportion to his body. It was not skin that covered them. And the eyes ... Was that what happened to a human who survived the unfortunate virus? Was that symbiosis? The tentacles of that thing ...

- Wow! - I heard Spike backtrack stunned. - That's really ugly!

- -Not so ugly when the symbiosis process is not tolerated by the host, boy. - The doctor observed calmly

I don't even know if I was able to do that, not after the image of the clone with my appearance and that haunted my dreams. I didn't even notice that the test glass in my hand shattered with greater pressure from my fingers.

It was those red eyes ... I was already a gelatin with so much fear and with my feet nailed to the floor. I was paralyzed like a statue.

I think heard screams, I'm not sure. The broken glass was buried in my hand and the cut was bleeding. It took a few moments for my mind to register the detail and I immediately put my hand to my mouth. It was all like slow motion.

It was just when the screaming started. My wide eyes saw the head of it and it looked like a skull without a nose. I was pushed back with all my strength and fell. That thing had rushed towards me, hallucinating at the sight of the blood.

- Don't shoot! - I think I heard Zorack scream. - Don't kill this thing! It can release toxic gas and poison all of us. Damn it, Joshua!

There was a kind of communication between us as much as I hated it. I could feel Zorack manipulating the moisture in the air to turn steam into ice. It was as if ice spikes left his hands towards the target. And it wasn't just that. I could capture his urge to isolate our visitor. The imminence of the sudden danger reached everyone who retreated in fright while Zorack advanced determinedly.

- Don't let him go through the hangar! Max yelled, gathering the few men there and taking up arms. Keep people away. I don't want anyone infected around here. We have no way to treat.

-Oh, deal with something like that? - Bash asked in astonishment. - This is not even human! No more. They know that the process is irreversible at this stage.

Advance through the hangar? It was to laugh! It showed no interest in that. There was a compulsory appeal in that thing to satisfy hunger. It was a basic and primitive instinct. The thing was cracked in me like I was the only one there. And that brought up old nightmares. Not even if it was a zombie apocalypse from the Resident Evil movies.

It was real. I saw what was left of the rest of humanity that still resisted a virus for which there were no vaccines yet. A virus that unlike other pandemics had been even faster. It didn't just start with viral pneumonia. Nor did it follow the guidelines that OMS had adopted in the outbreak of COVID19 and after its terrible and even more dangerous succession that had started in Kazakhstan in mid-July 2020. COVID 20.The very air we breathed was infected and the use of masks to avoid contamination had no effect. It had taken eighteen months for people to be able to gain resistance and some immunity after the vaccines finally discovered by China.

My planet was resisting a black era in human history. Much worse than the outbreaks of the Middle Ages with bubonic plague. And it had all started in Africa. There a catastrophe had begun on the continent.

We lived after all this with closed borders and no more international flights. Some countries had adopted the curfew. Life had changed. Some countries adopted the strictest isolation regimes in the world, banning all commercial flights and even the sale of drinks and cigarettes. There were those who, with a drop in economic activity, relaxed protection measures.

The corona virus was perhaps the most serious health crisis of our generation, but it was far from the first and only. Most of the world knew the importance of detecting cases of illness quickly, treating confirmed patients and isolating communities. In our globalized world, one of the factors that fueled the spread of viruses in Europe, were groups of young people who spent weekends in different cities.

The coronavirus in Africa had burned slowly "for several 3nos and killed about 190 thousand people in a period of 12 months.

I finally let the air out of my lungs and think I screamed. IT'S. I screamed as if I meant to wake all the dead.

Zorack had come between me and that freak and hadn't even hesitated.

-------------------------------------------------- ---------------

Urgent notes. Captain Zorack.

-I need to tell the doctor that the implant in the girl must be removed. Keep your distance from the attractive redhead. The lessons of intense and fiery sex will have to wait.

Everything had happened very quickly. I could move towards Joshua. Acculturation. I was assimilating these people's habits very easily. And I didn't even want to know the details of how the field group had captured it.

I need to control myself. I have never experienced so much anger and frustration. It was a mix of everything. It was the smell of her blood stoking that thing. There was a name for us to call that. They were reapers and always brought death.

-Don't shoot, damn it! - I growled again. I grabbed a mumbling man's gun unceremoniously.

Having the ability to manipulate some natural elements was sometimes a great advantage that I always appreciated. If the doctor wanted a guinea pig for studies so badly, I would make sure our guest was frozen. That reaper was not going to come near her. Not with me there. Angel belonged to me.

Damn it! What did Joshua expect with this little game?

The invader screamed, fighting to resist. I intensified my strength. It was not easy with the low humidity of the place. The metallic hisses filled the hangar and echoed frighteningly.

It barely fell and I was running to Angel worried. I blamed myself absurdly. Why trust the field group to a man I didn't trust? Curse! How could I imagine his madness in bringing us a living reaper? What if Joshua was colluding with the Federation to do those experiments on Angel, taking advantage of the isolation in which they had left her from our world?

-Angel! Are you alright? Cailín ...

Her heart was beating wildly. I could almost catch the scent of adrenaline in your body. The girl was in shock and dumbfounded.

-Oh, I really don't know! - Spike replied a little perplexed. Yes. I think it will be possible to survive! - the boy replied, examining his arms.

-Seriously? - I asked admired. -Are you sure about that?

-Yes. Are there quick tests for this dangerous thing in the air? - Spike seemed to freak out.

Rapid tests? It was a joke, wasn't it? Everything there on that planet had crashed in less than a month after the virus had reached the atmosphere. Countless deaths and the decay of the health system.

I swore under my breath. A cadet like that? Spike had hopes of returning with us and trying to join the Academy. Valor was miles away from him. I took Angel's cold hand without paying attention to the theatrical scene that the beautiful redhead was doing, indifferent to the doctor's indignant looks at her daughter and carefully examining the pieces of glass buried in her skin.

-Curse! You are not supposed to be playing with these things. - I managed to speak.

I managed to speak the first thing that crossed my mind. It was the first time I had Angel this close. The sight of that mouth was too inviting and appealing to me. I still decided very willingly not to give in to the wishes with people there.

The opportunity that I had hoped for finally came. I did not like Angel's remarks alleging that there was no valid union on the planet. Why would I need a damn priest after all? Or pastor?

-That ... that ... - Angel trembled.

I swore with sparkling eyes at Joshua, muttering.

-What did you expect with that? Bring more visitors or creatures close to us? Or did you think you could kill us?

- We can learn your weaknesses and use them. - Joshua showed an offended air that only increased my desire to punch him. - It is a species still practically unknown even to us. Any knowledge can ...

-Use them? - I asked possessed. - Look where we are? Study these things? Here and without the resources we have in our world with safety standards? How many more do you want to contaminate? Is it not enough or is it enough as it is?

-Nothing will advance discussions. - The doctor observed more energetically, trying to calm the spirits.

My anger was not just the unbearable man. It was Angel's awkward attempts to get away from my hands. She didn't trust me. What the hell had happened to her in those days when she was gone?

I was beginning to expect the worst. If the Federation did tests with her ... And it wasn't just that that made me tense. Enemy spacecraft at strategic locations in the sky made the real threat that appeared on that planet very clear. Ravenack and his hateful henchmen had also decided to win a new home there,

- Stop, Angel. You want to stop it now! - I finally burst out tense. She had every reason to avoid me, but anyone made mistakes. I had several, but I was trying to fix them.

- Not caring about the curious looks, I put my arm under her legs and lean her shoulders against each other to pick her up. The girl should not have been eating well and had lost weight.

-Max. - I still screamed. - Do you think you can take care of things around here?

-Take care of the girl while I fix this mess! - my friend suggested and I agreed with relief.

Angel's face was whiter than paper. It was a cold body in my arms. I walked in anger at myself to the place I occupied there and with a sigh I left her on the bed. It could hardly be called a cabin or room. There was a small table, a bed and a dresser. Practical and without many luxuries of comfort. The Spartackus had better accommodations, but still avoided overloading the ship's systems. The odds maker still needed urgent repairs.

It was not quite how I thought of approaching. He had hoped for a better opportunity perhaps during the night and hoped that Spike would abandon his watchdog post.

-Is that ... is he dead? - Her wide eyes stare at me and I could see the fear in them besides capturing the genuine horror in her.

"What happened and you didn't tell me?"

I forget the thought. I was concerned with getting bandages and forceps to remove the broken glass. Somewhere there was an antiseptic. I noticed Angel bite her lip, holding a moan and smiled. It was hard to imagine the reaction, but seeing her so relaxed and without caution around me managed to make me more relaxed.

"Are you going to tell me you're the type of girl who passes out with blood?" - I teased, smiling even more. - And you still like science? With the ease that she has, she would have made an excellent doctor. The doctor commented that you learn very quickly.

-Ah, it's definitely not math. - Angel wailed in disgust.

I crossed my arms curiously. was naturally aware of her preferences after reading her enrollment form and notes from the school office. In general women were bothered by the sight of blood like that when it involved wounded people. My smile widened. could very easily deal with Angel if the girl lowered her defense.

I had seen one of the girls at the base having the same reaction before. Perhaps women were sensitive to blood on that planet. Who could explain women ?!

- Me?! - Angel revolted and tried to get up. I pushed her back against the bed, pressed her shoulder. - What are you guys? Crazy? Bring something like that in here? Isn't it enough that we're stuck here?

- To my knowledge, some countries on the planet have already adopted measures to isolate social distance after the outbreaks of COVID. So why is all this?

By this time, I had already managed to remove the splinter and wrapped the bandage on her hand. The parted lips were an invitation to me. It was her scent. Her alien DNA was stronger. Still, the sight was appealing to me and fueled my desires. Angel could be irritating and frustrating when she wanted to, but she knew how to drive me crazy like no other.

It was also her image. The sight of the mini skirt was enough to distract my attention there. The skin was smooth, perfect and the worst of temptations. Her legs could end anyone's control. Sex was always good and pleasurable. But many things are to be desired when it was a different species from yours.

I was never really a saint. Four weeks of being ignored by a schoolgirl had rocked my pride a lot. He also enjoyed being the dominant partner in a relationship even more. The people in Édrin ...

We were binary, at least most. Another part adopted pansexualism. Gender binaries exist as ways to establish order. There was the insistence that men are male and women are female. It was important to distinguish femininity and masculinity as descriptions for behaviors and attitudes, without directly tying them to the male and female genders.

We were not like that. The involuntary inclination of each person to feel sexual, affective and emotional attraction for individuals of a different gender, of more than one gender or of the same gender ... we knew how to respect an individual's sexuality. The expression of gender did not always correspond to biological sex and depended on the culture in which a person was inserted.

That redhead had piqued my curiosity. My body reacted to visual stimuli. I had really enjoyed the moment. The sensation of orgasm was divine. Even better was to bury myself inside a stimulating body. My erection had applauded the lessons a lot. The sensation of touch, taste and warmth between bodies was heavenly for someone condemned to the damn holograms of virtual sex. Well, at the Academy I had had my affairs. Even Scarlet, who had lived by my side for a while, knew my preferences.

I had enjoyed every moment and loved it. My member definitely approved a lot. It was the hands with the movements of that redhead, the delicious mouth that sucked me or the intimacy of it warm and inviting. It was a trip without return. And yet all I wanted was to hear that annoying schoolgirl in my mind squirming and moaning under my body.

-You damn arrogant alien! - Angel was possessed and walking away.

I just felt her fingers snap against my face.

- You didn't do it! - She continued and the green eyes showed so much hurt that I felt the most miserable on the planet at the moment.

Ah, damn telepathy sometimes. Sometimes how that Angel could capture something and my feelings. It was another problem. Was that how she discovered my encounters with the doctor's daughter?

-I can explain...

Hell curse! I had never stopped to think about it. And it had been a huge mistake. The connection ... I could capture her emotions with ease. Was Angel capable too?

-If you liked that ... that damn bitch so much ... - Angel now swallowed the cry with all possible pride. I could see that. Worse. I could feel it!

-That's not what you're thinking! Truth. I didn't think you would react like that or feel ...

Betrayed? Shit! Did she feel that?

-Is that how you feel? - I asked surprised?

-It would appreciate a little privacy- She complained more possessed. -It's my thoughts. I didn't give you any right to read my mind, can you forget that?

-No, I can't. - I mumbled.

A good explanation! I needed an excellent explanation after being found guilty. How was that explained? Was it so hard for her to understand that it was just sex and nothing else? Damn it! I was not much different from any human over there.

Angel took a deep breath. He was marching hard towards the door and had nothing more than the delicate and fragile vision of before. Her hands shone like flames at the height of her anger.

Damn it!

-I'll help the doctor with the tests on that thing! I do not want you! I do not need you! Can you understand something other than your huge self-satisfied ego?

I stopped without action. Guilty. It had just been sex, dammit! There was no feeling in the act other than excitement. Only with Angel ...

It was hell! I liked her. And she had incorporated the most annoying offended Terran schoolgirl by leaving my room.
