The hivemind is conquering for me?

I looked Jewel in the eyes my worry evident. She said I used a piece of my soul to create the engram of the predator. "How negatively does this affect me my love? I'm freaking out a little here."

"The damage is not permanent my Apollo I can feel your angst so please relax. Your psionic powers will be heavily dampened for some time but you will recover no problem." I sighed in relief at Jewels explanation. I thought I had destroyed a part of my soul forever so hearing it was a temporary effect alleviated my stress.

"So how long will my powers be dampened? I was looking forward to trying out my improved gifts."

"Well my dear it depends on how much Psionic existence you expended. For example, when I create my primes I install some of my psionic existence directly it takes around 8000 to 20,000 years for me to recover again Depending on the strength I had provided to each of the bodies I created for them." I gulped hardly at that part.

Seemingly amused at my reaction Jewel smiled and decided to continue "Not that I think It would take you that long to recover darling. compared to me you are still a little fragile thing and the amount of Psionic essence you used will only take a year to recover."

Although the part about me being weak stung regardless of the truth behind It, I felt A relief that only a year was what the cost of my origin doing its own thing again was. While I got lost in thought again Jewel began to look over The blue creature Infront of her. "For such a small piece of his essence to create a such a strong creature is most impressive.

If I could learn this power I could forgo biomass conversion and be satiated for eternity. Alas It is my Perfect mates gift and thats what makes him my everything."

The hive did not show this trait In front of Apollo As his very presence causes a large suppression of it, But the hive Is always starving. Specialty hive bio-forms such as stalkers and the bio cult infiltrators don't feel this as they are cut off from the permanent link but the countless warriors drones and elites always feel A deep hunger which Is shared universally.

So If Jewel was able to create fleshless bodies and only use the biomass for food would be a monumental turning point for the race.

Snapping out of her second of wishful thinking Jewel turned her attention to Apollo who was standing in thought.

"I wonder why non of the primes have returned to visit me? Knowing Jewels crazy personality they would have cancelled everything and come back... Then again the big chonky over there from what I can feel doesn't seem to be anything like me so who knows. Only experimentation, training and a lot of time will tell.

" To this day over 16 years later I still forget to supress my link when I'm thinking absolute rubbish.

"My mate thinks I'm crazy?" A dead voice rang into my head. I could feel the air turn hostile as A myriad of emotions ruptured into existence for a moment.

Fortunately, Maybe by sheer luck a creature commonly known as Orchid had returned at that exact moment causing a perfect escape plan. "ORCHID!

Don't think, grab me and run!" Needing no further explanation or understanding by relaying into the open link, Orchid followed my instructions Perfectly as I was out of the room inside an Instant leaving a small consolidation for Jewel to make sure she didn't give chase. "I love that you are crazy you all are. Sane is boring. Love youuuu.~"

Jewel stood frozen she had forgotten the dread she felt a mere moment a go thinking crazy was a bad thing. It did not matter, HER mate LOVED HER. She would never get tired of hearing it.

"Hmm hm hmmmm." Behind her Jewel heard a humming. The uncouth stalker had finally decided to show herself in front of her queen as she watched the entire ordeal Take place. The stalker was still not paying any attention To her, she just began finishing the stitching of the prey on the workstation.

Jewel was about to ask the stalker a string of questions but the stalker beat her to the answers "Yes. No. 3 years. yes." Jewel felt the nearby surrounding flinch at the stalker as that was exactly how she felt. "Stalker gene variant Onyx stop using your mutated Psionic power so carelessly close to the centre of the hive.

The synaptic backlash due to us knowing things we should not could have dire effects."

Onyx let out a sigh turning to look at her queen for the first time "Forgive me my queen I forget myself at times. But to be able to witness our love through all possible time It. It is intoxicating and addictive. And since I am now being so forthcoming I should inform you of the fixed mutation my body shall gain once I undergo My alterations soon."

Jewels large head sack rippled in frustration at the stalker who was about to tell her more of the future. However, a fixed point should be fine. "Ok then Onyx" she emphasised "Tell me what you need to."

I had made a mistake in giving my Order to Orchid. She took advantage of the vague order and proceeded to run with me in her arms for two days straight on the surface of the planet and refused now to call for a pickup for me. She had also took the grab me part of the order very seriously as well as once she finally stopped running she placed me down but would not let go of my arm.

We kept traveling In a certain direction I was trying to find a decent hive tunnel opening as I could feel a slight link below up but It seemed to be drones being ordered very specific commands and I shouldn't interrupt them despite my protesting at wanting to get back quickly.

Deciding not to let Orchids Occasional hand rummaging as we walked distract me, I used our travel time to begin organising my thoughts on my next set of gene enhancements. I definitely was going to adapt the Jungle predators eyes and legs Into my own body. I had already worked out how the eyes would go as they were already compatible but I had to be extra careful with the legs.

The problem was with splicing the gene code of the predator into my body was that there was a chance my body could reject It leaving me weak for a while. I would have to find a way to increase the chance of It taking as once the genes were spliced in I would have the genetic code on how to alter my legs without causing more problems.

As I was thinking I had had enough Of Orchid fondling my third leg whilst walking so I picked her up so all her parts were above my waist and in view. She felt heavier than usual as my Gyrokinesis had indeed weakened but It was manageable.

10 minutes later I had regretted my decision once more of picking her up and carrying her. Orchid took the princess carry she was in as an invitation to go to town on my neck. licking and kissing and sucking everything as though marking It hers.

All I wanted was to focus on my improvements as my enhancements would be taking up the whole year while I waited for my soul to recover but no, This drop dead gorgeous creature wanted to make my scientific integrity disappear. I decided I would continue to Ignore her showing her I was no beast who only thought with his lower region that she could seduce.

Orchid had felt my determination and decided to try and break it. It was a win win situation for her. Either I would break and have some fun time with her or she would continue to enjoy tasting my neck and sweat and mark her love, as she could do this for eternity and never get enough.

I had been walking for 16 hours and my will had become iron. I could endure the pleasure I felt from Orchid as long as I kept Of repeating "My will is iron." Over and over again. Orchid was still enjoying herself as to be expected. Minutes and hours had lost all meaning all meaning to her at this point as she lost herself in her own pleasure.

On the horizon in front of me the cluster of 3 brown stars had finally fell behind it and the little let they were letting off had vanished. I felt fortunate that the primary source of the planets heat came from the plentiful amount of volcanoes and its core as a nearby lava stream would act as a perfect place to rest nearby.

As maybe It may be a placebo from the sun setting Or the weakening of my Thermokinesis, I had began to feel cold.
