C Call of the Wild [michime]

[SimonBrownMpreg]

Khell cried out with each thrust from the stinger. His violet skin turned white again, showing his fear, and this time the markings turned red, signaling his pain. It was impossible for Zioruta to conceal their more intense emotions. When enraged, their markings turned black and when experiencing intense sorrow, their skin turned pale blue. When in love and aroused, their white markings glowed with luminescence. None of Khell's markings glowed right now, though. His colors painted him clearly as suffering.

The strange rattling noise was terrifying. He'd never heard anything like it. Knowing what it signaled just made him even more panicked. As much as he thrashed and flailed, Khell couldn't escape or dislodge the stinger. "Aah!" he yelped when the first egg passed into him, quickly followed by a second, and then a third, fourth... Khell watched, horrified, as the mantis' abdomen shrank, only for his own belly to slowly expand as it filled with alien eggs.

[michime]

The mantis knew nothing of the Zioruta's skin or how it responded to emotions.  All he knew was that he had a carrier for his eggs.  He could implant his entire clutch, all the eggs he produced in the last season into the creature.  With every egg that moved from his body to the alien's, his body grew lightly and his abdomen thinner.  He produced so many eggs this cycle that he wasn't entirely sure he would ever implant them all.  He didn't want the eggs to die inside his body only to be crushed when the next clutch bloomed. 

He wished he could twist himself so he could watch as he implanted his seeds.  He felt the skin around his stringer stretch and bulge as every egg was forcibly pushed inside. When he finally implanted the last egg, he let out a sigh.  He didn't move even after he was finished.  He laid on top of the alien instead and let out a series of happy clicks. 

[SimonBrownMpreg]

As eggs continued pouring into him, Khell feared he wouldn't survive the clutch. His belly swelled up around them. He felt a thick fluid pumping into his body at the same time and he could only assume it was meant to cushion the eggs while they gestated. Khell grit his sharp teeth as his skin stretched at a dangerous speed. He didn't even know how it was possible. Was it because of the bite the mantis inflicted before, or was it the sting from those flowers? Whatever it was, it was the reason his belly grew full term, and then twin-sized, and then triplet-sized before ever slowing down. His navel even stretched into a flat pucker until the pressure sent it popping outward.

When the mantis seemed done and simply laid down on top of him, Khell let out a shaky breath. The roots kept a grip on him still. The new weight on his hips was painful and breathing was a bit more of a chore now. This was madness. "I hope you're proud of yourself," he hissed at the monster.

[michime]

"I am," a voice that could only come from the mantis answered.  "I passed my eggs to you. They will grow inside you, protected instead of exposed."  

The mantis made a grunting sound then his stringer detached from his abdomen.  He used his bottom legs to slowly push the entire length into this incubator.  "Nutrition for the eggs," again the words seemed to come from nowhere at all.  Once the mantis embedded the stringer into Khell he wrapped the bottom two sets of his legs around the alien as he spread his wings.  The roots released their hold just as he lifted off.  

[SimonBrownMpreg]

Khell groaned with his eyes tightly shut as the stinger passed deeper into his body. It wasn't natural. None of this was natural. And it would seem the creature wasn't done with him yet. Khell's breathing hitched. He could only imagine why the mantis would wrap all four legs around him. Those wings spread wide, looking almost like cracked glass and catching the light of the bioluminescence all around them. The roots abandoned their hold, but the Zioruta was far from free. He guessed the creature was taking him back to its nest. Its driving desire right now was to keep Khell safe until the eggs hatched.

There was a thought. Yellow eyes glanced critically at his belly. Would the eggs hatch inside him, leading to a live birth of tiny mantis monsters, or would he lay the eggs before such a nightmare could befall him? Khell tilted his head, watching the forest blur by as they flew through the trees.

[michime]

The mantis flew over the great forest, over the grasslands, before he landed on a small island in the middle of a rolling marsh.  He carried the 'mother' of his eggs through a single hole in a large nest. The mantis moved down the narrow corridor with his egg bearer safely in his arms.  The mantis worked hard to create a maze inside the nest that would stop invaders from destroying his home.  At one point, it seemed like the mantis double backed but instead emerge in a large open chamber.  

He carried his prey over to a strange indentation in one of the walls then shoved the alien into it.  When Khell's flesh made contact, it triggered some reaction that glued him to the wall.  He was trapped deep within the mantis nest without a means of escape.  

[SimonBrownMpreg]

This beast had been far from home when it and Khell crossed paths. Khell guessed the creature easily flew twenty miles between the forest and its nest. The only advantage it gave him was being able to see more of Drecuvis' landscape. The pale green sky stretched as far as his eye could see and the clouds were still encroaching on their currently location. The clouds were innocently white at the forefront, but started turning big and grey farther away. He couldn't help wondering what storms were like on this planet. The blue lush forest covered miles upon miles of land, and Khell realized the glowing oasis where he woke up wasn't even the heart of the woods. He watched as they flew back over pale blue grassland that swallowed his ship. The creek at the glowing oasis was part of a river that flowed through the forest and into the grassland, making it soggy and prone to sinking. The mantis followed the river until it spread wider and then emptied into the marsh.

Yellow grass grew up out of the shallow waters, spotted with red and brown reeds. Khell blinked as they plunged down into the dark hole. He couldn't begin to keep track of all the twists and turns they took. He grunted when the mantis stuck him into the sticking alcove and tried pulling his limbs free, but they wouldn't budge. Khell was indeed trapped, large belly sticking off his frame, full of eggs, and on a planet where no one else dared to go.

"How long do you intend to keep me here?" the Major finally asked. If he was going to be a prisoner, he might as well be an informed prisoner.

[michime]

"Eggs take thirteen circles of the planet to develop," the mantis answered as he walked around the chamber.  At least they weren't in the dark thanks to the bioluminesce of the material he used to build the nest.  "Your body will expand as the eggs mature and when they are ready, you will push them out.  The eggs will hatch and the larva will feed off the nectar at your feet."  

The mantis approached the alien womb and rested two of his legs on the bloated stomach of the alien.  He opened his mandibles and uncurled a long spiral tongue.  "Eat," the mantis ordered as a large drop of golden liquid developed on the tip of his tongue.  "It will keep you strong."   

[SimonBrownMpreg]

Circles of the planet? Khell pondered that for a moment and concluded the creature must mean thirteen days. That wasn't too bad, assuming the beast let him go after that. Nectar? So, that must be what made the wall so sticky and held him in place. Where did the nectar come from, though? And that's when the mantis revealed its long tongue dripping with the stuff. Khell gagged and turned his head away. "That's revolting," he growled. "I can't believe this is how you treat visitors to your planet. First, the flowers on the edge of the woods attacked me, and now you've forced me into bearing your eggs. Do you do this to all aliens that land on Drecuvis? You know, those flowers accused me of coming here to hurt them, but I'm just an explorer. What harm could I bring to any of you?"

[michime]

The mantis let a sharp click before he used the width of his cutter arm to force the alien's head back into position.  He knew that womb wouldn't willing take the nutrients so it took the matter into his own control.  With his cutters on both sides of the womb's neck in warning to stay still, he forced his tongue down the alien's throat.  He pushed the nectar along his tongue and into the womb's own body.  Nectar flowed freely from his tongue into the womb's belly making it bloat.  He kept forcing his nectar down the alien's throat until he was sure the womb had enough nutrients for his eggs.  

He pulled back his tongue letting it curl back into a tight spiral then closed his mandibles.  "You will bring more of your kind and steal from us.  You will use us for your own desires and ignore our needs.  You must be punished for this violation.  The eggs have enough support for now.  I will give you more when they need it."  


"

[SimonBrownMpreg]

Khell grunted as the mantis forced him to submit. He felt the sharp blades of its forearms poised on either side of his throat, so he didn't dare try turning his head away again. He briefly though about biting off the creature's tongue, but it might take his head off as punishment. Khell gagged and coughed as the nectar poured down his throat. It was admittedly sweet, but also thick. He had a hard time swallowing it. Some leaked out the sides of his mouth while struggled to breathe through his nose. He felt his belly growing bigger, flooding with golden honey, bobbing heavily off his hips.

When the mantis' tongue withdrew, Khell coughed and gasped. The liquid dripped down his chin, leaving a sticky trail, but he wouldn't lick it away. "In another fifty years, my people with mostly begin starving. We're running out of room on my planet. We wouldn't come here to build. We would come here to farm. We'll plant crops and maintain your ecosystem. If we destroy this planet, we'll have no other options, so of course we'll respect you and your needs."

[michime]

"Your alien crops would kill us!"  Anger radiated off the words as the mantis paced the chamber.  "Many came before you, tried to make us their own!  They killed parts of us to make room for themselves!"  The nest shook as if the entire structure felt the same burning rage as the mantis.  "We are not murder ourselves so you may live!"  

The mantis calmed himself and the shaking stopped when his eyes fell on the swollen, bloated belly of the womb. His eggs were warm and safe inside the fertile womb.  He liked the look of the heavy belly, already hanging over the alien's nature hips.  He wasn't sure since this was his first clutch but perhaps it should be bigger.  Maybe he should fill the womb until the belly touched the floor.  The mantis approached the womb again; his mandibles opened again before the tongue unraveled.  

[SimonBrownMpreg]

The nest shook and Khell flinched. This was strange. He needed to get out of here and see more of the planet, but he was starting to guess that everything on Drecuvis shared a conscience. The grassland sought to destroy his ship when he landed, the flowers attacked him with their spores and spines, and now this mantis was raving about invaders ruining the planet. It was sort of an ironic punishment; everything on the planet accused him of coming to destroy, so the planet was using him to procreate instead.

Khell watched the mantis approach him again with open mandibles and dripping tongue. "N-No, wait!" he begged, shaking his head. "Wait! Wait!" Just before the beast's tongue could invade his mouth, Khell felt the welts on his neck throbbing. Now what? He worried the flowers spines might have poisoned him. Instead, he felt the throbbing sensation move from his neck down through his chest and into his stomach. Khell groaned quietly when his belly started swelling again. Not only did the mantis' eggs occupy his womb, but it appeared the flowers implanted their own seeds in him too. As the throbbing in his neck continued, the seeds grew larger, his belly bloating until he looked pregnant with quints... septuplets... and finally he looked ripe with nine babies. Khell panted heavily, his violet skin stretched and smooth. "Damn..."

[michime]

"You bear both eggs and spores," the mantis explained before he forced his tongue into the womb's mouth.  He poured more nectar down the vessel's throat ignoring the gurling, choking noise the creature made.  He feed the womb more now that he carried more of the planet inside him.  He filled the womb to the brim with nectar then continued until the golden liquid poured from his nose.  He finally stopped then slowly curled up his tongue letting the womb feel the life source more closely.  His head went back as his mandibles shut once more.  

He listened to the groans as the womb strained to stand under all the extra weight.  He used his cutters to free the womb's arm from the hardened substance that added like his shackles.  He brought the womb to his knees before he pushed the alien's womb's arms back into the 'glue'.  He hardened quickly and now the womb could rest on his knees with his belly bulging out in front of him.  

"The seeds will mature before the eggs.  I will carry across the lands so you may drop the seeds in fertile soil.  You will be the mother of a new forest."  

 

[SimonBrownMpreg]

Nearly a week passed before anything of significance happened. Telling night from day down in the nest would have been impossible if not for the mantis actually going to sleep at night. Khell took every advantage to sleep, because sleep was far better than enduring the growth of the eggs. His fecund belly looked big enough for a dozen young. Every other day, the mantis would pump him full of nectar, which the eggs soaked up greedily.

Today, his burgeoned womb quivered and rippled. Khell felt as though he had a terrible case of heartburn, like a lump of bile was trying to crawl up out of his throat. He leaned forward as much as possible, gagging, but only thick amounts of saliva pooled out of his mouth and down his chin. "Wh-What's happening to me?" Khell moaned. Again, his belly rippled, and he coughed up more spit and traces of digested nectar.

[michime]

The mantis flew into the chamber and saw the womb in such a state.  "The seeds are ready," the words came easily before he walked over to the womb carefully cut it free.  "The forest is ready to grow," he got behind the alien, wrapped several pairs of his legs around the creature then picked up Khell.  He flew the womb out of the nest paying attention to the rippling, quivered skin. 

The mantis fllew until he reached a hilly expanse of land.  Several bright yellow mounds dotted the landscape and the mantis landed on the largest.  "The forest begins here." 

[SimonBrownMpreg]

The beast had impressive strength since it was able to lift Khell and then fly him quite a distance. His gut undulated as the seed pods started moving their way up his esophagus. More gagging and dripping saliva preceded the birth of the spores. When they landed and the mantis set him down, the creature started using the sharp edges of its forelegs to dig a hole in the ground. It only took a few minutes for him to realize he was meant to deposit the seed in this hole so the mantis could plant and bury it properly.

Khell grabbed either side of his huge belly in both hands. It undulated again, and this time, he felt a lump rising up through his chest. "Gyyak... Haaugh..." A bulge appeared at his collarbone and it slowly moved upward into his throat. Heavy amounts of spit and nectar flooded his mouth, lubricating the way for the seed. "Hhhooark! Haaugh! Gaauk!" Khell lurched forward when at last the pod pushed past his tonsils and over his lips and down into the hole the mantis dug. The Zioruta was left panting and coughing while trying to wipe his mouth clean, but it was a useless effort since another pod would be close behind.

[michime]

The mantis watched the womb birth the seeds from its mouth struggling to expel the large, heavy pod.  He covered the first pod the alien birthed then picked up the invader and moved them to another mound.  He dug another hole and this time he held the womb's head in the hole.  The seeds needed the warm, fertile earth and there was less chance of the pod of rolling down the mounds.

He traced one leg over the alien's front feeling a series of hard bulges from Khell's stomach to his neck.  He listened to the strange sounds the creature made as the seed rolled up and out the womb's mouth.  "You carry this entire forest in you.  One seed for every mound." 


 

[SimonBrownMpreg]

The way the mantis said this made it sound like Khell should be proud, but being the mother to an entire forest just brought him a lot of pain and nausea. During a moment of respite, yellow eyes glanced around him at the cluster of yellow hills. Seven. There were seven hills, which meant he had to cough up seven pods. He managed three so far. The mantis carried him to the fourth location and again dug a hole.

A fine layer of sweat broke out across Khell's carapace. His eyes watered as a new lump forced its way up his throat. More choking and gagging noises accompanied its ascent. One hand pressed against the flank of his quivering belly while the other wrapped around his neck. Damn those flowers. Damn this planet! He felt the mantis' eggs shifting beneath his trio of fingers. Only one more week stood between him and giving birth. Would it be the same as this seed pod ordeal? Somehow, he doubted it. Khell threw up the fourth egg. "I can't keep this up," he moaned."

[michime]

The mantis ignored the womb's words and instead just picked him up and flew him over to the next mound after he buried the pod.  He watched the alien struggle to choke out the fifth seed. When the pod crossed the creature's mouth, there was a cracking pop sound and something strange happened to the invader's mouth.  The bottom hung open almost like it was unhinged.  A scream came from the creature sounded more like a dying animal than a giver of life. 

The mantis glanced down at the seed.  Was it bigger than the others? The hole wasn't big enough and the mantis took his time to deepen and widen the hole without bothering to check on the alien.   He blinked a few times before he picked up the womb again and carried him to the sixth mound.  He dug a bigger hole this time one that he hoped would fit the bigger seed.
