</div></div><span style="font-family: 'Didact Gothic', 'sans-serif'">Zara groaned softly, her lips parting gently as her lashes began to draw upward, flickering as she started to rise from the waves of sleep. As she fully woke, the female noticed that she seemed to be in one of the staff rooms, promptly left on a somewhat comfortable bed with a glimmering tablet beside her. Before she could check on the updates, she heard a loud bang to her door. Slowly, she swung her legs over the bed before she made her way to the doors. Zara casually hit the button before the large metal doors wooshed open to reveal a rather sickly looking Max. The memories of the events before flooded her mind; the asshole. Part of her wanted him to suffer.<br/>
<br/>
Her brow arched as he spoke, she was already observing the way he held his stomach. "All I remember is waking up with a headache," The female knew that wasn't the only thing that had gone down, but she refused to open that can of worms. Clearly, he was very unwell. The female noticed the area he held himself; it was the same area Laura had been... broken from. It couldn't be, could it? "Sit on the bed," The female murmured, immediately making her way to search through the drawers to find a basic medical kit. It was when her back was turned that she noticed him on his knees, one hand reaching out as if she was his only lifeline. Her sympathy for him was fading, ever since he'd threatened Silverman, or who inhabited that body. Even in that moment, she felt a greater need to go see him than she did helping a fellow colleague.<br/>
<br/>
The woman cast the kit down onto the ground as she knelt beside him. Max seemed to be reaching stress levels she had never seen in him; he was fearful for his life. Slowly, the female pressed her hands to his chest to cause him to lean back until he was laying on the floor, flat as a plank. "What did something to you, Silverman?" Her voice remained professional, no hint of stressed tone or higher pitch. Delicate fingers pulled back his shirt to see a shift under his flesh. It was <i>moving</i>. All of his organs were being squashed to allow the beast space. It was almost as if she could feel a connection, the same one she'd felt outside of the medical bay. It was <i>her</i> one.<br/>
<br/>
"There's nothing I can do." The female murmured softly, causing Max's gaze to turn to her, widening in horror as the female gave a delicate shrug. "Time for you to come out, my dear. We don't have much time." The female placed her hand over the male's stomach, feeling the way it curled and wriggled inside of his flesh. It was already pressing at the walls, attempting to find a way to claw through. The rage inside of her from years of fighting with colleagues and uncalled advances played incredibly well into her disdain for them. It didn't take much to turn off her empathy and sympathy for them. Especially in comparison to the bond she felt to the creature; the need to protect and care for it was great. <br/>
<br/>
A sudden burst of flesh echoed through the room. The loud crack of the ribs was a sound she'd never witnessed before, but it was something. Blood spattered all over her and the male, but fortunately the female covered his mouth just in time. The open cavity began to spill blood across the floor, causing it to pool around his dying body. A soft screech echoed from the small being that crawled out of the now opened body. It was tiny, in her eyes. She'd never seen it develop in this way before, but she loved it nonetheless. "Come," The female purred softly, noting at how the creature looked to her, tilting its head before reaching out it's small arms, swiftly climbing up onto her arm and around her shoulder as it had before. The tail swept around her throat, curling around like a serpent, using it for stabilizing itself. <br/>
<br/>
Zara knew she couldn't leave a mess like this, it would be spotted and they'd alert the space station. So, with the bloody creature on her shoulder, she began to clear away the blood. The body was tugged and stuffed in one of the lockers within the room. Zara broke a key off in the lock before she finished clearing up. The female grabbed a soft towel and began to dry off the screeching being, it seemed to enjoy the touch. "I can't have you tracking blood, or following me out in the open. Do you understand?" The creature tilted its head, as if it understood her. "Good boy." With that, she changed into a new body suit, this one was almost the same, aside from the navy blue material. She just hoped it wouldn't be obvious. They didn't need a reason to check the room, especially if they knew Max came to see her.<br/>
<br/>
Once she left the room, the creature dashed off to find a way up into the rafters of the ship. Zara followed the strong pull inside of her, yearning for her. Her weapons had been removed, not that she needed them. They'd been placed in the room, but she knew all she had to do was reach him. Thankfully, it seemed the team were nowhere in sight, most likely taking time to adjust and try to relax, maybe sleep. <br/>
<br/>
When she reached the medical bay of the ship, she noticed just how much smaller it was than the other. It looked as if they'd used some agent in the room to prevent Silverman from being awake. A soft scoff left her lips as she beeped herself into the room with her key card that had remained on her person. As the doors opened, the female stepped inside only to notice the creature was dropping in from a small hole made in the ceiling. She'd only been away from it ten minutes but it had seemingly grown. Purposely, the raven haired woman stopped by the control panel beside the door and locked the door, but not before misting the glass panels; they would be blind to whatever happened in the room.<br/>
<br/>
Swiftly, she rushed over to Silverman, who was laid out on the only medical bed they had. Clearly, they'd hit him with something that worked... or he faked it. "I need to know your plans for me," The female's voice was firm, stronger than it had been before. "If you think that whatever you've done is going to make me willing to be your breeding capsule, you're wrong." As if to join in on the conversation, the creature scuttled along the floor and dived up onto the bed, seating itself close to the pair with a soft screech. The female reached out, brushing her hand over the creature's head, causing it to tilt toward her touch with a little squeak, lower pitch than usual as it nuzzled toward the female. The female had assumed he'd been faking his unconsciousness, but she couldn't be sure.<br/>
<br/>
If he wasn't the female made her way to one of the drawers beside him, with the creature watching her every move. Once she'd filled a syringe with a clear liquid, Zara approached the male's side. Her hand eased down along his arm, her fingers tingling along his skin before caressing the inner crease of his elbow. The creature dashed up to perch on his stomach as it observed what Zara was doing, it gazed up toward her, giving a sharp squeak before reaching forward to grab the syringe in its mouth. "You want to play?" The woman was utterly confused. All she knew for sure was that staring down at a very naked, rather alluring man she'd met not along ago was stirring feelings within her. Hell, she'd already neglected her team for him, she was doing what she never imagined... She had to know what was going on.<br/>
