Ria escapes

Dan helped her to her feet, made some noises and watched her face, then adjusted his approach and said "Welcome Ria".

Ria said nothing.

"Um, do you understand me? Have I still not got the language right?"

"Its right." she said cautiously.

"Good. He beamed Dan's idiot smile. Totally charming and endearing. His cocks were both slouching towards the floor now. "I hope our greeting was all right. We did not have time to study your customs to confirm if this was standard. We hoped to be welcoming and not to offend."

Ria's eyes widened. "So... that was a greeting. And before, with... that..."

"R'Kal. Yes. He's a bit shy. He does not have much skill with face-shifting. I based my appearance on someone you thought of positively. I hope its not offensive. I can change it again if it does not suit you."

"No. That's fine." said Ria. This was crazy but she thought she understood them. They were trying really hard to be friendly. Her double fucking from the both of them was just an introduction. She got the feeling they really were trying to be friends. "Where is...sorry, was it R'Kal you said?"

"He's shy. He thinks his appearance might have disturbed you. He's in his quarters. May I ask him to come forth?"

"Of course, yes."

"Thank you". Ria expected the large Dan-like creature to speak into some tiny communicator to summon the Lizard man, but he just opened his mouth and bawled "R'Kal!!!" A moment later the lizard-man was there at a trot.

Ria sat down on one of the chairs. She somehow felt like they were waiting on her to tell them what to do, even though she had assumed they were her captors. Dan-thing explained, "Our race are slaves. We were in the Trilithica mines in sector Phi-Beta. My brother and I. It was horrible, back breaking work that we were used for. So, I learned how to use our race's ancient ability to face shift and we stole this scout ship and ran."

Ria shivered in sympathy at the thought of their plight and recalled her own racially abusive treatment at the hands of the grotesque Toad.

"The trouble is" said the Lizard-man, "that the Mine-company who own us is chasing us. So we have to keep running. We didn't know how to avoid them so we thought we could use some help. We used the ship to select someone who appeared to be like us at least as much as to be compatible, and who might be able to help us get away from one of the planets we passed."

"Me?" asked an incredulous and still naked Ria.

"Yes", cut in the absurdly muscular version of Dan, "the ship was certain you were the epitome of your race's beauty and intellect and best placed to partner us. I am sure it is right" he didn't look like he was being sarcastic.

"What about Dan, my husband? The people who know me".

"We did an instant clone, and left the clone behind in your place. She is exactly like you. We even made her more compliant than you, so that your friends would be even happier with you than before, so we do not think they will chase us."

Ria shook her head. These guys thought Dan might have his own starship and come after them for her. Fuck, they didn't know earth, or Dan very well! And Dan got himself some sort of Stepford Wife out of the process. He would be delighted. Even if he knew!

"So," said Ria, trying to understand, switching between Super-Dan and the Lizard, "why take me and leave the clone? Why not just make a clone and take her with you?"

Super-Dan and the Lizard looked at each other silently for more than a few seconds then Dan turned to her. "We," he cleared his throat with an odd clucking sound, "never thought of that".

Ria almost laughed at the absurdity, and gazed over his perfect body (apart from his two cocks, and now that she had time to think about it, two mught even be an upgrade!)and found herself grow just a little bit horny.The lizard-man was almost a mirror of Super-Dan she thought and found herself day-dreaming of possibilities.

"R'Kal!" called Dan suddenly. "The company is closing in from left and right.

"We have no more room to maneouvre R'Kaz" called the Lizard-man. "We are doomed Ria," said the Lizard, surprisingly tenderly, "I am sorry we brought you here to this".

Ria was pumped though. "Are the other ships faster than yours?"

"No the same but bigger and more powerful - but they approach from all angles. Ahead of us is the Gar confederacy and there are mining company craft to our left, right and behind. We have nowhere else to go" said the Lizard in a voice that she could hear a version of her own fear when she was the victim of the Toad.

She looked at him with deep sympathy, but also some incredulity. "You're trapped front, back, left and right?" she said.

"Yes. We are doomed. They will have us in under a minute. I should prepare a surrender statement. Maybe they will have mercy on you. R'Kaz and I will be incinerated on the spot."

"So what's up?" asked Ria?

They both looked at her silently, uncomprehending.

"Vertical. That way!" she gestured above her head. R'Kaz (Super-Dan as Ria was thinking of him now) and R'Kal exchanged another one of their stunned silent looks for a second then the Lizard man jumped into action and slapped a piece of white plastic. Suddenly the ship lurched 90 degrees to the vertical and Ria fell back into her chair. A few moments later and the artificial gravity kicked in, adjusting to the new trajectory.

"Are they following?"

"No," said Dan, stunned. "They can't. They're too massive for that kind of manoeuvre. It would take them hours. We'll be long gone! We're free!"

"Great. Well put your foot down and lets get the fuck out of here!"

"Aye-Aye Captain," said Dan, without any form of ridicule.

"Good. And you Lizard-boy." she pointed ar R'Kaz, "My cabin now and lets put those big green cocks to work!"

"Aye-Aye Captain," repeated R'Kaz.
