A pillar hurtled across space, a composite of exotic metal and synthetic materials. It rode on a plume of irradiated plasma. In its guts a dense, magnetic core resisted a fantastic pressure, containing a reaction of chemicals and energy that could only be properly described by thousands of numbers. Those thousands of numerical symbols were sifted by a computer, measuring out energy as necessary to sustain the reaction. That same computer detected a signal originating from a point in space nearly coinciding with the destination stored in its memory banks. A circuit connected, analyzing the message, deeming it relevant, assigning the task of handling it to a subroutine. Somewhere, affixed to the power core, opposite the inferno streaming out from the reactionless drive mechanism, electricity flooded to conduits held dormant for weeks.

Opposite the reactionless thruster, a room was mounted upon the ship. The room was held within complex walls, a sandwich of radiation filters, insulators, superconductors, and piping. Inside the contents were sparse, the interiors of the chamber smooth, antiseptic, and blue, as if a robin’s egg had been turned inside out. Clustered arbitrarily at the edges of the compartment was a computer terminal modeled after the human fashion, blank monitors mounted on a frame like so many sheets of paper, several boards printed with symbols in a language called English, a prolific human speech. Manual manipulation tools composed the remainder, along with holographic display modules. One section was screened off, containing tools and packages of rations stabilized to resist entropy. Three columns rose from ceiling to floor. The cylindrical objects were massive, affixed in their positions. Panels of some transparent material allowed a view into the interiors. Etched into the metal above these panels were the figures CRYOGENIC SUSPENSION HABITAT #12G5 565 01Z. Only one of the cryogenic sleep devices was inhabited. As the computer’s subroutine completed its task the panel of the inhabited tube was obscured in fog, and a low hum sounded in the lonely chamber. Minutes later, a nude female, apparently human, pushed herself out of the freezing coffin, trembling from the aftereffects of reawakening. Stimulant chemicals stirred her blood and warmed her. She gave in to disorientation and allowed herself to drift for a few moments, ignoring for the moment the message displayed upon the computer setup. Finally, she sighed, stretching in midair.

“Natsuki Saika, voice pattern activation.” She recited a string of code. “Recognize.”

“IDENTITY CONFIRMED. PRIMARY USER: NATSUKI SAIKA.”

“Run program Leopold. First tier permission.” A monitor in the corner flickered to life, awash in color. The hues blended hypnotically, and resolved into the face of a middle aged human male. The visage was clean shaven, hard eyed, and smiling. The representation moved a hand onscreen and ran it through his chestnut hair.

“Salutations Miss Saika. Sorry to be abrupt, but we are approaching our destination, and Vanejin officials are demanding an introduction. Shall I take the liberty of activating the ID beacon?” Natsuki’s slim, naked figure hung canted at right angles to the computer.

“Manufacture some attire for me Leopold, and give the Port Authority their introduction.” Natsuki smiled backward at the simulated personality. She raised an arm over her torso to hide her pert breasts. Leopold’s nose twitched, and he took on a grave expression. “Your modesty is my utmost concern Miss.”

Personal transport vessel, Classification B7, Ivory Tower, requesting permission to land groundside at the city of Marmillion.

Port Authority here, identity confirmed. Ivory Tower requesting transport groundside. Your vessel is certified for atmospheric maneuvers. Will you be docking at Vanejin VI Starport, or landing at Marmillion City?

Request to bring Ivory Tower to ground at Marmillion, confirm.

We read you Ivory Tower please hold for screening…


“Bring up relevant news from Marmillion Leopold.” Natsuki’s gown billowed about her, pale lavender with white lace. She ran her hands along the ribbons of her corset. “You did a good job this time, by the way. This dress is as light as smoke, but perfectly opaque. Mmmmm, it’s better than silk.” She purred.

“Thank you Miss. I aimed for delicacy and modesty, with a concentration on the sensuality of the texture. Does it feel appealing?” Natsuki nodded generously, to Leopold’s reserved delight.

“Excellent. As for Marmillion, today is the third day in the turbulent season on Vanejin VI. At the latitude of Marmillion at present and the distance from the nearest star, climate is unstable. I took the liberty of waterproofing your garments, but you may want to take a parasol. It is an official holiday, celebrating the proliferation of flora and fauna that will come out of dormancy during the season. Xenozoology and xenobiology represent strong markets as a consequence of this phenomenon, so the population of the city is estimate to double within the next day or so.”

“Good. I should be able to acquire my specimens without trouble then.” Natsuki readjusted a prominent white bow at the small of her back, whose tassels trailed a quarter of the way down the embroidered expanse of her long skirts. She kicked her ankles, making lace ruffle.

“I’m glad you’re pleased, Miss Saika.”


Port Authority here, transmitting trajectory calculation to Ivory Tower. Please proceed along assigned flight path.

Dominique had gone far too long without a mission, and she was getting restless. She had been in Marmillion City for a week now, watching the place get ready for its big annual celebration. Everyone seemed to be excited and smiling and ready to party, except for Domi.

Dressed in civilian attire that felt far less comfortable than her armor, the fit raven-haired beauty was passing the time besting men in physical challenges in a bar. Her short black hair was held out of her face with a headband, and she wore a simple white tank-top and green camo pants. She had a thick green jacket on the chair behind her. This planet's weather drove her crazy: too humid for heavy clothes, but too wet to go without a jacket.

Beads of sweat stood out on Dominique's golden-brown skin. The slightest exertion in this damn place soaked you in perspiration. The bar's ventilation system wasn't working properly, and the place smelled of alcohol and human bodies.

Dominique's pouty lips were settled into their accustomed scowl as she stared down the hairy-faced man in front of her. The man spit into his palm, then held his meaty hand open, his elbow on the table.

"Let's go, woman," he growled with disdain. Domi narrowed her eyes and clasped his hand with her much-smaller one, and the arm-wrestling began.

Domi's biggest advantage was her deceptive strength. Her body, while clearly fit, was covered in soft curves and padding that hid the powerful muscles underneath. Her large breasts and exaggerated ass made it so men never dreamed of the strength she had - they were too busy dreaming about other things.

Using surprise to her advantage, Domi threw her force into a strong opening that the man was not prepared to counter. His hand slammed on the table, and his jaw dropped open.

The bar was full of jeers and hoots at Domi's triumph. She grabbed the expensive cocktail that was her victory prize, sipping it slowly as she left the dark tavern. The alcohol combined with the flush of victory made her skin tingle, and her dark nipples hardened within her tight sports-bra. She held her jacket over her shoulder and stood on the front steps of the bar, watching the masses of people walk the streets. A light rain was falling, but in her flushed state she was far too warm to wear her coat.

Dominique sighed, leaning on a post, and wished again for excitement.

Natsuki walked down the broad pedestrian streets of Marmillion’s trade sector in her little dress. In the corner of her eye the manifestation of Leopold strolled with a hand clasping the wrist of his other behind his back. He was only a projection on the lens of her eye, but he judiciously avoided the other denizens of the city regardless, an activity that brought a grin to Natsuki’s face. Idly, she touched the silvery, teardrop pendant at her neck that contained his program. At the fleeting brush of her fingertips upon the seat of his being, Leopold turned directly toward her.

“Miss?” he inquired. Just then his image was juxtaposed by a glistening mass of blue-green, belonging to some hurried being that rushed past on several segmented legs, toting a transparent container of some orange gas on its back, which it seemed to be breathing out of.

“Pardon me.” Leopold said brusquely, though the algae colored alien would never hear him. He curled his nose in genteel disgust.

“Leopold, don’t be so cross.” Natsuki tittered. “He can’t see you, after all.” Leopold’s lifted his chin haughtily, eyebrows knit in the direction of the retreating figure that had offended him.

“Granted Miss, but it would have done the same regardless, I’m sure. If you’d been only a couple of paces to the left you’d have been trampled.”

“What could trample me?” Natsuki willed herself into non-corporeality and hopped backward, passing through a hapless citizen who waved a pair of tentacles in alarm and undulated away. Leopold grimaced at her with his long lips.

“Now you’re being rude.”

“My apologies then Leopold. I was only making a point.” Twirling in her lavender dress, Natsuki skipped forward, causing the ribbons on her back, neck, and shoulders to flutter their lengths in trails behind her. The cut of the dress was ornate, reminiscent of Victorian sensibilities, and she looked like an overgrown doll wearing it. Humans on earth would call the style Lolita, and she knew that among them it was somewhat dangerous to wear such a thing, but she did not feel any risk in donning it on Vanejin. Slavers had no concept of the innocent allure the decorative dress suggested to human men. They were attracted by the sight of flesh. If anything, they would interpret the elaborate nature of her clothing as a sign that she was already owned, or that she had enough influence to be well protected. She was impressed with Leopold’s skill in creating the fabric. Humid as it was, the gauzy material remained dry and silky, and insulated her surprisingly well from the sweltering heat. Of course the rain was a different matter, so when she heard the first pattering of droplets from the street she lifted her parasol and pushed it open to shield herself. The pale yellow sun beat down steadily in the midst of the abrupt sprinkling, not a cloud marring the blue of the sky. Eventually Leopold warned her that she was approaching the seedier districts of the area, and Natsuki began to take better note of her surroundings.

“Why are there so many humans?” Natsuki asked in a low tone, caught off guard. Human slavers might very well take an interest in her, though she was certain their efforts would be futile. It would not do to be overconfident, however.

“You could call this area a slums for humans Miss Saika. That’s not strictly accurate of course, since its jurisdiction lies within a human segregated political state in the interior of Marmillion. A few enterprising human individuals gained enough clout among the system to put a sector aside for the explicit use of humans and specific humanoids, and this part of it happens to coincide with one of the less economically upstanding region.” Natsuki frowned at the number of humans that were passing her, pursing her cute pink lips.

“Vaneijin VI is one of the heaviest traffickers in human products I know of Leopold. How did humans manage to gain autonomy? Has the ADD presence here increased?” Leopold shrugged.

“I do not know the specifics Miss, but I do know the ADD had nothing to do with it. The human government has no legislation banning slavery, but they do require slaves to be acquired through proper channels. For the most part, slavers prefer to operate through those channels here. The military presence of this sector is heavy.” Natsuki eyed the hulking figure on a nearby corner wearing state of the art power armor. Automated turrets perched above the guardian’s shoulders, and her eyes widened when she saw the distinctive cones of microwave grenades studding the figure’s waist.

“So I can tell. So there are no human abductions here?”

“I wouldn’t say that. But they’re rare. As a matter of fact…” Leopold trailed off, but Natsuki followed his gaze toward a cluster of men skirting the edges of the crowd. Their eyes scanned the passersby, and they muttered to one another with disguised leers. Currently they were concentrating on Natsuki herself. She halted in place, matching the stares they gave her. She didn’t pay attention to the smell of alcohol drifting from a bar across the street, or to the buxom woman in a sweat stained white tank top that exited it.

“I see them Leopold. So are those slavers legal merchants or pirates?”

“No way to tell Miss. But they’re not hiding their interest in you.” Natsuki suppressed a wry smirk.

Post Re: Hubris and Humility (for Dominique)
Scanning the crowds, her mind wandering, Dominique's eyes locked on a young human girl, walking seemingly by herself along the crowded street. What was she doing here? Didn't she know how dangerous it was?

Back home in New York, Domi had learned quickly that you avoided the "wrong" parts of town, and whenever you walked anywhere questionable you had to go in a group. She had followed those rules until, when became a Junior in high school, she had started to work out and practice martial arts, and puberty had blessed her with her impressive height. After that, she began to seek out the "bad" parts of town, teaching would-be attackers lessons they never forgot.

In the crowd around the girl, Domi saw a few men who seemed to be too interested in the young girl. She wasn't sure of their intentions, but she suspected they were slavers.

"It's not a mission," Dominique said to herself, "But it's something to do." She put on her coat and stepped out in to the crowd, her confident stature clearing a way for her as she moved towards the men and the girl.

Her hand dropped to her pistol as she saw a man take out what she thought was a weapon, but she relaxed when she saw it was only a small device. The slaver waved it around a little in the direction of the girl, then looked up and saw Dominique approaching. He looked back at the device, and his face twisted in fear. With a signal to the other men, all of them began to back off, and were soon gone into an alley.

With pride in her step, Dominique pushed her way through the crowd towards the young girl, who was all dressed up like some sort of doll. Domi reached her and grabbed her by the shoulder, spinning her around to face her. For a second she looked almost familiar - but Domi was too impatient to pursue the thought of where she knew this girl.

"Hey! What do you think you're doing out here by yourself? Don't you know it's dangerous?"

The men were almost certainly slavers, or at the very least, dealers in one of the various black markets in this sector of space. Unusual political regions were classically havens for smugglers. Either way, Natsuki remained their current target.

“Miss…” Leopold warned.

“I’m in no danger.” She thought so, anyway. Depending on how competent the men showed themselves to be the more worried she would become. One of them reached into a pocket for a portable scanner of a nonstandard type. Natsuki tensed. Whatever they were, they weren’t stupid. She might decide on running after all. Sure enough, the bronze skinned male began to take readings in her direction. He surveyed his handheld device with eyes of reflective gold, glancing away for a moment. Natsuki watched anxiously for an attack. He returned his attention to his scanner, and recoiled from what he saw. Fear made his face spasm, and with astonishing alacrity he slipped into the crowd along with his entourage. She relaxed, fully satisfied at the reaction she was sure she caused. Her physiology must have warned them off.

“Natsuki.” Leopold prompted again. The small woman spun, alerted by his use of her name, but too late to react to the strong hand that clamped her on the shoulder. Natsuki was spun brusquely, and she let out a cry of protest as the sleeve of her dress tore under the rough hand, thinking for a moment that the vanished slavers had been more clever than she realized. Her face came around in consternation to confront some of the most impressive female anatomy she had ever encountered. Natsuki took a step back, uncommonly flustered by the violent treatment and the female’s peremptory question.

“Hey! What do you think you’re doing out here by yourself? Don’t you know it’s dangerous?” A quizzical expression came over Natsuki, one she repressed swiftly as lacking dignity. Instead, she took the time to retreat another step and breathed. She enforced a state of tranquility over herself, and looked up to examine her questioner.

She was a human woman, no doubt. Natsuki’s first instinct was that she was somebody’s slave, judging from the look of her. Seldom had she seen proportions of such spectacular magnitude. Sex dolls were regularly as voluptuous, being designed with exaggerated sculptures to help them accommodate their purpose. The thought was dismissed even as it occurred, as Natsuki spied the pistol the woman carried on her hip. This woman was far too confident, far too aggressive. Possibly she was part of the military presence Leopold had mentioned, off duty and out of her armor. Her fingers lingered on her weapon, and she bore down on Natsuki with a disapproving gaze that almost made Natsuki wilt beneath it. Natsuki was taken aback by the surge of weakness that overtook her, but then she opened herself to the emotion, luxuriating in it. Leopold raised an eyebrow at her quiet gasp.

“Excuse me. I was not paying attention to where I was going.” The light from the sky was dimming due to an encroaching cloud, and the soft rain gained weight and momentum. Natsuki was protected by her parasol, but water splattered on the tall newcomer’s white tank top and her short, tousled black hair. Natsuki was pleased at the fortunate timing, and even more pleased that the woman evidently was braless, raptly observing the woman’s shirt grow transparent and cleave to the grand swelling of her breasts. Hard nipples jutted through the cloth boldly. Natsuki could see her to advantage now, marveling at the strength she sensed hiding beneath the plush warrioress’s exterior. She felt the urge to stand on tiptoe to touch the woman’s wet, bee stung lips. Their delicate pink hue did much to soften her hard glare. Belatedly, Natsuki noticed the bare skin showing through the tear in the shoulder of her dress.

“Oh no! You’ve ripped it! And after Leopold did such a good job.” She emphasized her complaint with a stamp of foot. “You could have been more careful.” Natsuki accused, crossing her arms beneath her chest. Her petulant mask hid Natsuki’s racing mind. How could she keep the attention of this powerful woman? She had to know if there was some way of acquiring her. The image of overripe breasts poorly contained by a wet tank top gave her a thrill of awe once more. Yes. She had to have this one, if only for a moment.

Dominique crossed her arms across her chest as the girl backed away. The ADD Agent's generous breasts were pressed upwards by her disapproving posture, although Domi didn't notice. Rain was rapidly dampening her short black hair and her mood, and although she had her coat on her shoulders, the zipper was broken, and so the garment hung open wide and didn't protect her chest from the weather.

A drop of water clung irritatingly to Domi's small steel nose-stud, and she shook it off with a flick of her head, watching it for a moment as it fell past her green pants and on to her black leather boot. Then she looked back at the girl.

“Oh no! You’ve ripped it! And after Leopold did such a good job. You could have been more careful.” The girl complained, stamping her foot girlishly. Dominique looked, noticing that she had indeed torn the sleeve of the girl's elaborate, doll-like dress. The dress plus the girl's delicate size and stature made her seem very young and helpless. Rather than softening Domi's attitude, however, this just made her more angry. What the hell was this girl thinking?

Shaking her head at the little airhead, Domi said, "So I've ripped your dress, which means you'll have to go home, or at least to wherever you are staying, which is where you should be right now anyway. You've wasted enough of my time saving you, so move along now. Run home to your mother."

Domi's eyes lingered over the girl's willowy form, which had just enough curves to interest the slavers and other lecherous types who swarmed over this planet. This girl was a fool.

Post Re: Hubris and Humility (for Dominique)
My but the human woman was an arrogant thing. Natsuki thought the way she glowered was delicious, almost laughing as she jerked her head to shake off the rain. Unwittingly she presented her ample bust to Natsuki’s scrutiny, arms crossed beneath them as support. The sheer conceit that allowed her to thus ignore her own appearance was wonderful. A slave’s body matched to a real woman’s ego. It was enough to make Natsuki blush. She resisted the urge to press her thighs together, feeling trickles of warmth.

“Miss?” Leopold scratched at his beard. “It seems to me that you’ve a fancy for this woman. Do you wish for me to make inquiries to the slave merchants?” Natsuki blinked once in the affirmative. “I will attempt to gather data on her Miss.” Leopold’s eyes glazed and he stood stock still, as if in a trance. Meanwhile, the Amazon was berating Natsuki. She was not too captivated by the newcomer’s physique to be offended. Drawing herself up on her toes in indignation, she lifted a finger. At the brink of unleashing a verbal barrage, Natsuki reconsidered. She remained locked in her pose for a few seconds. Then she sank back down onto her heels and sighed and lowered her eyes.

“I don’t have a mother. Just dear Leopold.” Natsuki let a hint of melancholy into her statement. She did not have to affect confusion for the rest of her response. “I’m very thankful Miss, I’m sure, but…what did you save me from?” Honestly, as far as she knew she wasn’t in danger. Oh, there had been those men, the possible slavers, but what did she have to do with that? The gun, she recollected. That might explain it. Slavers might very well avoid an off duty soldier. It disappointed Natsuki that the men might not have been fleeing from her after all.

“Oh…you must mean those men that were staring at me. Why? Were they dangerous?” The rain was becoming heavier. Natsuki bit her lip, twisting a hand in the skirts of her dress. “I had no idea…” Leopold broke his trance long enough to snort at that, nearly jarring Natsuki out of character. He deserved a reprimand for such impertinence, but for now she didn’t want to give away his presence. “You must be…are you a policewoman? My name is Charlotte, by the way.” Natsuki beamed up at the girl. “What’s yours policewoman? Can you help me walk home? I ran away from Leopold so I could explore, but now I think I’m lost. Leopold’s always so fussy.” There, let him digest that one. She turned her face up at the taller woman and willed her lip into trembling, widening her eyes. The proximity to the domineering woman put a flush in her cheeks, so much the better. Innocent looking and sweet, Natsuki scrunched her shoulders meekly. “Please, can you help?”

Post Re: Hubris and Humility (for Dominique)
Dominique shook her head at the girl's pitiful display. She was like something out of a children's story, a poor girl all alone who got herself into trouble. She was just lucky that Domi found her before the big bad wolf did!

"Alright, Charlotte, I can help you," Dominique said, annoyance in her voice. She couldn't abandon the girl to her foolishness, as much as the little thing deserved to learn a harsh lesson. The proud agent was extremely irritated that, rather than a combat mission, she was wasting her time with a glorified babysitting job.

"I'm not a policewoman, though," Domi said, taking the girl's arm firmly and pulling her out of the way of the crowds, under an overhanging tarp that protected Dominique's rapidly-dampening shirt from the rain. "My name is Dominique, and I'm..." she hesitated, unsure if this girl had ever heard of the ADD, or whether telling her would be permitted, "I'm a sort of spy/soldier. I'm Dominique, but I'd prefer it if you called me Ma'am. It's more polite."

Domi noticed the girl looking at her chest strangely, and the agent noticed the near-transparent state of her shirt. Pulling her broken coat around her damp breasts, trying to keep them covered, she tugged the girl along behind her, scowling. "It's not polite to stare, Charlotte. You should know that. Now where is this Leopold? I'd like to talk to him."

Natsuki’s blush deepened out of embarrassment for Dominique, who seemed to believe Natsuki’s sugary display without question. She had to be primarily a soldier, because a competent spy would have seen through such an obvious ruse. Naturally, her own sweet, innocent appearance was helpful, but this Dominique was definitely overconfident. Overconfident, or ignorant.

“The name Dominique matches nearly a dozen military profiles from this sector.” Leopold informed her. “But her facial structure doesn’t exist in their databanks. This woman is not one of the native soldiers.” A foreign agent then? Natsuki pursed her lips with frustration, unable to risk speaking to him. Dominique’s demeanor suggested to Natsuki that she might be a pirate. Maybe even a slaver herself. Natsuki looked upon the woman in a new light, vaguely suspicious. It was not entirely unknown for slavers to use the bait and switch routine. On occasion even female slavers had been caught and collared because they failed to recognize a threat. Natsuki edited her estimation. Dominique was either a very poor espionage agent, or an excellent one. It pained her to admit it, but she could not afford to relax around Dominique until she had been fully investigated. Then the soldier woman asked to talk to Leopold, and Natsuki saw her chance.

“Oh yes Ma’am. I don’t know where he is Ma’am, but I’ll call him.” She unclasped a silver bracelet from her wrist. It was nothing but a decoration, but jewelry often housed more complicated devices, such as the pendant that housed Leopold’s program, for example. Natsuki positioned the ornament between her ear and her mouth, pretending to touch a hidden button the engraved surface. “Leopold?”

“Miss?” Leopold raised an eyebrow ironically.

“Hello Leopold. I’m sorry I ran. But I’ve met a nice soldier woman who saved me from some men and….” Natsuki paused, pouting, attempting to look crestfallen, as if being scolded. “I…I know Leo..I…I said I was sorry.” Leopold covered his eyes with a hand, wincing. “Can…will you please come find me Leopold? I’m right across from a bar. Yes, the street is filthy. Why?” Natsuki recited the name of the bar. “Will you come in person?”

“Is that a hint Miss?” Natsuki blinked her eyes once. “Then shall I upload myself into a bioroid host?” Another confirming blink. “Right away Miss. I will present myself as soon as I have prepared one of the bodies in storage aboard ship.”

“Thank you Leopold!” Natsuki wrapped the bracelet back around her wrist. “He’s on his way.” Dominique’s cleavage was swelling impressively behind her scrap of a shirt. Natsuki found herself transfixed until Dominique covered herself and reprimanded her for rudeness. Again, Natsuki shivered at her intimidating tone. Her nipples hardened in response. Exquisite. “Oh I apologize Ma’am. It’s just that I’ve never seen anyone so…so….” She gestured with her hands timidly, cupping the air in front of her own chest.

Dominique felt at angry blush at the girl's comment, but her dark skin hid it well. She had worked long and hard to be recognized for something other than her tits and ass, and she didn't appreciate this little brat's attempt at a "compliment."

"Yeah, yeah," Domi said in response to the girl's compliment, "I'm stacked, thanks for noticing." She huffed and held her coat closed over her chest with one hand, gripping the girl's slender shoulder with another. The girl's own curves were much more modest, but suited her body well. Dominique wouldn't have minded spending some time alone with her, but her "helpless little girl" personality irritated her far too much. The girl obviously lacked the strength of will, body, or intellect to challenge Domi, and so she was nothing more than a nuisance.

"How long is this Leopold going to take? Where did you last see him?" Dominique was wet and cold, and the girl's glances had made her wish she could go back to her room and change into some heavier clothes. She always felt naked out of her armor, and so never paid much attention to her civilian clothes.

Dominique sat down on a stone bench under the overhanging tarp, her well-cushioned ass protecting her from the hard, cold stone. Forcefully, no longer caring if she caused the irritating girl some discomfort (she would have gotten far worse from those slavers!), Domi gripped her wrist and pulled her close.

"Sit down here and wait," Domi ordered, pointing to the bench. Due to the agent's generous hips, there wasn't much bench left, but the girl was petite enough to squeeze into the remaining space.

The buzz of the cocktail had quickly burned away, along with the earlier excitement she had felt. Now Dominique was surly, and, on top of everything, she had to pee. She crossed her powerful thighs and sighed, wondering if she could get away with handcuffing the girl to a pole and just leaving her there for "Leopold."

Post Re: Hubris and Humility (for Dominique)
It was a shame that Dominique wasn’t more perceptive. Her body was fantastic, both in proportion and function, but Natsuki always found it dull acting in front of an inattentive audience. There was no sport in teasing Dominique, she was woefully susceptible to Natsuki’s guile. Still, she had her merits. Natsuki admired Dominique’s exotic tan, a honey dark chiaroscuro tone that flattered her in any light. Absently, Natsuki closed her parasol and put it to the side since the tarp already protected them from the rain well enough. Dominique’s questions betrayed impatience. She was easily irritated, probably impulsive, simple to deceive. If Leopold brought good news, it would be no difficulty to capture her. If. It was necessary to gather other specimens, but if it was at all feasible to capture this one….Natsuki bit her lip and giggled, and was gratified to see the soldier’s scowl deepen.

Natsuki capitulated to Dominique’s last demand willingly. The hand on her wrist was bruised her, but she bore it in silence. What a powerful female! Natsuki sank down next to her “protector”, conscious of her svelte hip against her own. “He’ll be here.” she assured Dominique soothingly. Sure enough, a tall, genteel figure was striding in their direction under cover of a large black umbrella. His taste in wardrobe was impeccable, black slacks and a simple, crisp shirt in a dull russet color. A muted brown suit jacket was folded over one arm. Leopold saw them and his salt and pepper beard bristled.

“There you are!” Natsuki silently applauded his mannerisms. He was every bit the concerned guardian, to steely eyes with a hint of anger and the relieved tone he used to greet them. He approached Dominique first, giving her a small bow. “My apologies madam, for imposing upon you. You have my gratitude for putting up with Charlotte, and my sympathies.” Natsuki stuck her tongue out at Leopold at the subtle jibe, but Leopold seemed to pay it no mind. “She must have been a fright.” Natsuki narrowed her eyes. Don’t overdo it, her crossed arms warned. Smiling kindly at Dominique, he extended his hand. “Pleased to meet you madam. I take it Charlotte has already introduced me.” His eyes kept scrupulously to Dominique’s face.

Dominique stood up from the bench and shook Leopold's hand, squeezing it hard in her grip to test him, as she always did with new people.

The agent didn't know quite what to make of this well-dressed, proper-looking man. He wasn't the type she was used to dealing with. Glancing at the smirking Charlotte, Domi's annoyance returned, and she let Leopold know exactly how she felt.

"Yes, Leopold, she's told me all about you. I'm Dominique, and if it wasn't for me she would be on a slaver's ship right now, tied up and gagged! What the hell were you thinking, letting her wander around this part of town with no escort, no weapons, and dressed in that silly outfit? If she gave you the slip, then you need to pay more attention, dammit, and that's not an excuse, just an admission that you failed."

The dark-haired woman's rant was catching the eyes of a few passer-by. Domi used a lot of gestures when she was upset, and she had forgotten about the state of her shirt once again. Her coat had fallen open, and her large breasts and dark nipples were visible through the damp fabric as she waved her arms about, expressing her disbelief with Leopold's irresponsibility.

"You're lucky I don't handcuff you and take you back to ADD headquarters and throw you in a cell," Dominique muttered angrily, not realizing the significance of what she had said.

Leopold took Dominique’s diatribe in stride. It would be proper behavior for him to react with anger, but his primary motivations precluded that possibility. It would be senseless to further antagonize the human woman, according to Leopold’s analysis, so he merely assumed a hard expression of displeasure and said nothing throughout the ordeal. The biologically based android nodded apologetically. He noted and analyzed Dominique’s musculature and feminine structure, matching it against his psychological profile of Natsuki. Links flared in his consciousness. Natsuki must find Dominique’s features arousing, and her strength was sufficient to frighten her, which would in turn promote a challenging response, seeking to dominate the source of her fear. This human Dominique suited Natsuki’s tastes more than adequately, and that was dangerous, for Natsuki and Dominique both. Companionship was only of secondary concern to Leopold. Protecting his programmer, Natsuki, and keeping her impulses under control was of paramount importance. So when Dominique muttered her fateful admission, he knew that he only had moments to bring the situation under control. Natsuki’s gaze was already darkening as he grabbed at her hand and tugged her beside him. His artificial muscles made his grip inescapable, and Natsuki’s eyes flew open at the unexpected behavior from her creation.

“You’re completely correct ma’am. I will not happen again. We will be going now, if you please. Come Charlotte.” Leopold turned and began to walk in measured paces, half dragging Natsuki behind him. Her struggles were no act as she twisted against him.

“Release me Leopold! What do you think you are doing!?” She kicked at Leopold’s legs in an unladylike manner, and tried to pry his hand off of her, but he was unaffected. Natsuki fumed, giving a glare back at the ADD agent. If she phrased her order correctly then Leopold would obey automatically. However, doing so would reveal his nature, and besides, she trusted his programming. By the time the ADD agent was out of sight, Natsuki had ceased her struggles and walked briskly beside the masculine automaton.

“What the hell was the point of all that?” Natsuki gave an uncharacteristic growl.

“The situation was precarious Miss. I am aware of your attitude toward the ADD and I operated to prevent an encounter whose outcome was uncertain. The number of local ADD agents is not known, nor is the reason for Dominique’s presence.” Natsuki hesitated.

“I see. Then you aren’t preventing me from dealing with her?”

“No Miss. I assumed your knowledge of her affiliations would amplify your desire to acquire her. I am merely interceding for the sake of your advantage.” Natsuki huffed, then fell quiet. Eventually the pair came to their lodgings, and Natsuki shook of Leopold’s hand and rubbed at her wrist.
“I regret that I hurt you Miss.”

“It’s nothing Leopold.” Natsuki was not paying attention to him. Her thoughts were for the ADD agent. “Do you have the data on Dominique yet?”

“I am acquiring it now.”

Domi watched the strange pair walk away, shaking her head. Those two were...odd, to say the least. But now they were out of her life, and she never had to see that little airhead again! Thinking again of the girl's lush curves and well-formed body, Domi shook her head.

Shame about that mouth that girl had, Domi thought to herself as she walked. The only fix for that would be to put her lips to work between my legs.

The arousing thought reminded the agent that she had to get back to her hotel room, to pee and to change out of her damp clothing. She remembered her broken jacket once again, realizing the show she must have given Leopold when she was yelling at him. She scowled angrily and began to walk through the streets.

She loved her body, of course, and wasn't ashamed of it...but at the same time she hated getting attention for the way she looked. She was strong, powerful, intelligent, and a great warrior - being reduced to just a pair of big tits and a huge ass always made her frustrated and, deep down, embarrassed.

By the time Dominique got back to her room, she had almost wet herself. She threw open the door to the bathroom, not even bothering to close it, and sat down with a sigh of relief. Once she was finished, she stripped off her damp clothes and got into a hot shower, feeling irritated and dirty after her strange encounter with Charlotte.

Domi took her time cleansing her light-brown skin, enjoying the feel of the water on her body. She noticed some stubble around the edges of her thick pubic bush, and set to work with a razor to get everything trimmed. Most women these days had discarded razors in favor of permanent laser-removal treatments, but Domi preferred to do the work herself, with a blade.

Finally stepping out of the shower, the agent scrubbed at her short hair vigorously with a towel. She decided she'd had enough of looking at people, and decided to stay inside. Wearing nothing but black cotton panties and a black sports bra, the agent began to stretch, a form of Yoga designed to strengthen her muscles and improve her reflexes.

“I have the information Miss.” Natsuki perked her head up.

“Yes go on.” She flung herself into a bow and her tresses poured to the ground like golden syrup. She shimmied the torn dress over her small shoulders. The garment’s layers of lace crinkled onto the ground. Fully nude, the girl did a pirouette, arms held out in a circle for balance. As always, Leopold kept his gaze respectfully averted, just as Natsuki had designed him to. The pointless chivalry elevated her mood, and she twirled faster, sweeping her lithe leg into the air. Coming to rest on the balls of her feet she surveyed herself in the bathroom mirror. Her dainty breasts were upswept, tipped with rosebud nipples, and her slender figure was immaculate, despite a thin sheen from the humidity.

“I found it on public record in the Human Autonomous Commonwealth.”

“The area we met her in?”

“Yes Miss.”

“What did you find?”

“General articles. Her name, Dominique—there’s no last name listed, only a security code issued by the Commonwealth. She’s registered with the ADD as she said. A rank and file soldier, nothing on file to distinguish her. The Commonwealth keeps limited profiles on ADD agents, unlike its citizenry, who are much more substantially documented.”

“She isn’t a citizen?”

“No, ADD are afforded special diplomatic license. They possess the majority of citizen rights, and are subject to Commonwealth law, though the ADD is given a chance to intercede on behalf of its operatives. Her license includes law enforcement privileges and the ability to requisition equipment with the consent of her superiors.”

“That seems generous.”

“Yes Miss, at first glance. But she could only enforce existing Commonwealth law, as the ADD has no jurisdiction. If Dominique had attempted to fulfill her earlier threat toward me, for instance, she herself would have been arrested. But apprehending illegal slavers is within the scope of her powers. In essence, she’s categorized as a bounty hunter.” Natsuki stepped into the waters of her suite’s bathtub. The heat and oil soothed her, and she closed her eyes to soak. What a luxury, to find a bathtub outside of human controlled space, on Vanejin, of all places.

“You said citizens were safe from enslavement Leopold?”

“That’s correct, for the most part. A citizen may only be enslaved by their own consent.” Natsuki opened her eyes and sat up, making the bubbles slosh. Leopold cut off the inevitable question. “Commonwealth protocol demands that a gamut of tests be performed to verify that a potential slave is not being coerced, as well as requiring lengthy forms and a waiting period of no less than five standard Vanejin days.” Natsuki sighed, sinking back.

“Are there any exceptions? How are slaves traded in the Commonwealth at all?”

“Humans brought into the Commonwealth are automatically considered citizens, unless the Vanejin government has already classified them as property. Since Vanejin at large recognizes and accepts human slavery, this means that as long as a human is declared your property before entering the Commonwealth, they remain so legally, and can be bought and sold in the Commonwealth without ADD interference. As you might imagine, this makes the area a favorite haven for slavers.”

“And if a citizen leaves the Commonwealth?”

“The Vanejin government will uphold their Commonwealth rights.” Natsuki slapped the porcelain rim of the washtub in discouragement.

“However…” Leopold continued. “Dominique is not a Commonwealth citizen. Her political license is invalid outside of the Commonwealth.” Another entity would have been caught unprepared by Natsuki’s girlish reaction, but he caught the naked female in a towel as she gleefully threw herself at him in a hug. Staring up at the ceiling, he wrapped the cloth around her patiently. “I thought you might like that. You have a plan then, I take it?”

“Leopold, sweetheart, what’s the state of my finances?”

“Close to a million credits. Just enough to purchase the specimens you need, according to my estimates. Do you need a more exact number?”

“No thank you Leopold. Can anybody present a bounty?”

“One only has to transfer the funds to appropriate Commonwealth office.” Natsuki giggled.

“Well then, why don’t you go ahead and file a missing person’s complaint? Put up all my credits for a bounty.” Leopold raised his eyebrows at the girl sitting in his lap.

“Don’t worry Leo. I’ll explain the rest while you make me a new dress.”

“Yes Miss.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the midst of her seventh Yoga form, Dominique’s wall communicator activated. Without prompting, it displayed the information for a new bounty. The job offered a nine hundred thousand credit reward for reclaiming a missing person, presumed kidnapped and last seen just outside the Commonwealth’s boundaries. Charlotte’s frightened, off center photograph filled the top left corner.
