(ARGH. I'm sorry about my posting rate guys... I'm in finals, and I don't think it's going to be getting better till I'm out. If it's too much trouble, I can try to pull out of the RP. I don't want to slow you guys down anymore than I am.)<br/><br/><blockquote class="uncited"><div>Beta however, kept a straight face at the revelation, being a master at not showing her true feelings, not wanting to give pleasure to Maiza. However, it was too much to allow herself to have her hand clenched in fury and her body shaking very slightly, though noticable if one watched closely. Her mind, however, was furious, *No! Why did it have to be her! I thought she was eaten for sure due to her age! But, she put her through THIS! She has seriously crossed the line! When is some heros going to get here already!*<br/><br/>*Doctor Beta is everything alright? Should I come help?* Golem asked in Beta's head.<br/><br/>*No, Golem, we have to be patient... But... Use some of the supplies to make some extra lethal tools, okay?* Beta intructed in her mind.<br/><br/>*Um, okay. But are you sure? Isn't that going too far?* Golem asked.<br/><br/>*No, Golem, after this I think she deserves nothing less. Why?! Why did it have to be her?!* Beta thoought to herself, growing attached to Remi after her interest in Beta's line of work. "I will make sure not to fail, your highness," Beta said, though most of the sentence was said calmly, your highness was this time was more hatefelt.<br/></div></blockquote><br/>00000000<br/><br/>"S-sister!" Vespa finally speaks, and Beta can hear the horror in her voice as she looks at the swollen girl. "This is totally unessesary, and any further relations with the humans-"<br/><br/>"Are you questioning your Queen, Commander?" Mazia asks, her tone light, but her eyes flashing. Vespa's mouth hangs open for a moment, then clicks shut. she bows her head, her hair obscuring her face, and kneels.<br/><br/>"I spoke rashly, your highness. Please forgive my impertinence." Vespa speaks in the same collected, utterly professional voice that Beta now recognizes as an authority learned and heavy.<br/><br/>Maiza lets out a soft sigh and actually pats Vespa on the shoulder, consolingly. "You are already forgiven. The queen must never show weakness, herself or her chosen circle. But I made you my Commander because you are my Egg sister, Dear Vespa." The queen has an understanding smile on her face. "I know you will always try to protect me, through thick and thin. But I know my path now... trust me as I trust you."<br/><br/>Vespa does not rise, but Slowly, nods.<br/>"Yes, your highness. I trust you, as you are my queen by blood and by bond."<br/><br/>Maiza claps her hands. "Excellent. Continue aiding the doctor: we will soon have the beginnings of a true army if she succeeds, and with my eggs and lasting hosts, an unending supply of loyal soldiers!"<br/>She throws one last winning, queenly smile back at Beta as she leaves. "I eagerly await your next success doctor!"<br/><br/>The nameless guards deposit Remi on Beta's bed and the girl moans as her bulging belly shifts. her eyes lock on Beta, and a look of profound betrayal crosses her eyes.<br/>"Y-you..." she manages.<br/><br/>(I was going to have Maiza give Remi a TENTH egg right then and there, just to prove how freaking uncaring she is... but I decided that it was a bit unnecessary.)<br/><br/>0000000000000000000000<br/><br/>[A bench in town]<br/><br/>The woman lets out a small moan and wriggles a bit. "Oh, don't be shy Jon! use more than one!"<br/><br/>00000000000000000000<br/><br/>[With our heroes]<br/><br/>Sophie barely managed to pick herself up and stagger after Salvadore and Yatchet... she's relentlessly torturing Eric inside her, but the sensations are far too excellent... she's slowing down because of it.<br/><br/>She even missed that giant fight! well, maybe she isn't too eager to fight yet.<br/><br/>(If people want sophie around, I could have her release Eric if someone convinces her that it's better NOT to imprison someone constantly.)
