I made sure to get all Generals their upgrades, but when I got to Diamo, I fortified his system so his crystal could block out the Cosmic radiation. Not only that, but I had thought of an interesting way of doing things for now.
"Once the core and mantle have been replaced with the Micro Star, we will have to contain it with what we have gathered. There are a couple different uses for the star, but with your crystal, we can make giant orbs around the settlements," I explained.
"So, you create a sphere around the settlement that would cut off the radiation," Diamo said.
"Exactly. Not only would it keep the people safe, but it would also be a power source." I said.
"How so?" He asked.
"Well, the star is constantly giving off energy, right?" I asked.
"Yes, that is correct." He said.
"If we can harness that energy, then we can use it to power the settlement," I said.
"I see. That is a very interesting idea. I will have to look into it further." He said.
"I think it could work," I said.
"I will make sure to look into it," Diamo said, and I nodded, then turned back to the girls.
So much was going on with the three space dragons coming now, but trying to get everyone working on it right now was pointless. Everyone needed some rest, and Sofia and I needed some time alone. There was talking and fun at some point, but the two of us needed to do the talking first.
Each of these creatures possessed insane powers that made my powers seem like cheap tricks in comparison, but I still had things like Word Incarnate. I thought I would also have Calishora helping me as I looked over at her and the rest of the girls. My eyes fell on Victoria, and then I remembered her asking me to fix her System.
I walked over to her, and she looked up at me with a smile. "Yes?" she asked.
"I think I figured out how to fix your System," I said.
"Oh?" she asked.
"Yeah, it should be simple enough," I said.
"I see. How long will it take?" she asked.
"A few minutes. Come, I can do it while we walk. I am not really going to get much time to see you after today, so I would like to get some now before Sofia, and I leave," I said, offering my hand to Victoria.
After a moment, she took it, and I helped her up. We started walking north through the garden and away from the others, and I started to work on her System. It was not too difficult, but it took a little bit of time.
"There. It should be working now." I said.
"Thank you." She said, and I could see her open up her System Menu to take a look.
"Anytime," I said.
We continued to walk in silence for a little while, and then Victoria spoke up. "Are you scared?"
"Of what?" I asked.
"Of what is to come?" she asked.
"A little, but I am more scared of what will happen to the people here. I do not want to see any of them get hurt." I said.
"I see. I am scared as well, but I know that you will protect us." She said, leaning into me.
"I will do my best," I said.
"I know you will." She said as she pulled back, smiling. It was really nice to see Vic like this. Happy and acting cute.
We walked in silence for a little longer, then reached the edge of the garden. I stopped and looked out at the tree city beyond. It was so different from when everything first started. Everything was so new and fresh, and now it was all going to change.
"It is so beautiful," Victoria said.
"Yes, it is," I said.
"I never thought I would see something like this." She said as she looked out at everything around us.
You could look in any direction and see things you never thought possible. There was the stadium off in the distance, the Challenger Dome, and all the great trees with bridges running all over the place at different heights.
"I never thought I would either," I said.
We stood there in silence for a little while longer, just taking in the view, and then I turned to Victoria. "I am going to protect us, but I can't save everyone. I have been thinking about this a lot today, and now the sisters coming isn't making it easier," I said.
"I know. I wish that I had a solid answer, but I don't, and I don't think that any of the girls do. This is something that you are going to have to choose, and you are going to have to rely on the choices that you make. We can't stop what is coming; only you can, so you need to make a choice," Victoria said, and I nodded my head.
"I know. I just wish that it was not so difficult." I said.
"I know, but you are strong. You can do this." She said with a warm smile, taking my hand in hers.
"I hope so," I said, smiling back.
We stood there in silence for a little while longer, just looking out at the tree city, and then I turned to Victoria. "I should get going. Sofia is waiting for me," I said.
"Yes, you should. I will see you later." She said, turning to me.
"Yes, you will," I said as I moved in to kiss her. Our lips met, and we kissed for a moment before we pulled away, and then I turned and started to walk away.
"Be safe," Victoria called out to me.
"I will," I called back to her as I continued to walk away.
"Hey, I was wondering where you went off to," she said as I sat down next to her.
"I went to see Victoria," I said.
"Oh, how is she?" Sofia asked.
"She is good, but we need to talk," I said.
"About what?" She asked.
"About the sisters and what we are going to do," I said.
"I don't know. What can we do? We can't stop them, and we can't save everyone." She said, and I knew that was true.
"I know, but I am not going to just sit by and let them kill everyone. I am going to try and stop them, but you are right, and I can't save everyone. Gah!" I complained, and Sofia came over to cuddle with me.
"It is a long day, Papi. Let's go back home and talk about it in the morning. I know the world's ending, but this is like the second time in two weeks. I am starting to get used to working overtime, but tonight it is you and me, right, Daddy?" Sofia whispered in my ears as she kissed up my neck, and I grinned.
"Yes, Hermosa, tonight is about you and me," I said as I pulled her into my arms and headed home.
Once we were back in the R&D Tree, we headed up the elevator until we got to Sofia's floors, which counted as the top four floors of the tree. The entire ride up, Sofia kissed me while I cradled her in my arms. The moment the door opened for the elevator, I groaned.
"Welcome home, Master, and strange Annokale," Lycan said as he sat on his haunches glaring at me. He was fixed, but I still held my reservations about this robot dog.
"Lycan, I thought I told you to call me Sofia." She said as she pushed past him, and I followed behind her.
"It is not my place." The dog said.
"I don't care, now call me Sofia, or I'll have your programming rewritten, so you have to." Sofia threatened, and the dog's ears perked up.
"Yes, Sofia." The dog said, and I chuckled.
"I see you still have your hands full with him," I said as we entered her home.
"You have no idea." She said as she walked over to her closet and began to undress.
I sat down on the couch and watched her as she undressed, revealing her toned and tanned body. She had a small waist, wide hips, and large breasts. She was absolutely gorgeous, and I felt my manhood stir as I watched her.
"I'm going to take a shower. Do you want to join me?" She asked, and I nodded as I stood up and began to undress.
I followed her into the bathroom, and she turned on the shower before she stepped in. I followed her in, and she pressed her body against mine as the water cascaded down over us. We kissed passionately as our hands roamed each other's bodies, and then she took a step back.
"I want you, Papi, but not like this. I want you to make love to me, not just fuck me." She said, and I nodded as I turned off the shower.
I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around my waist before I grabbed one for her and helped her to dry off. I then took her hand and led her into the bedroom, where I gently lay her on the bed. I kissed her passionately as I slowly crawled on top of her and entered her.
We moved together, our bodies slick with sweat and water, and I quickly found my release. However, Sofia was not done, and she rolled us over so that she was on top. She began to ride me, and I soon found myself on the brink of orgasm once again.
I grasped her hips tightly as she rode me harder and harder, and then she cried out as she came. I followed suit soon after, and then she collapsed against me, but I kept moving.
"Papi, what are you doing?" She gasped out.
"I told you, tonight is about you and me. I am going to make love to you all night long." I said, and she moaned in response as she wrapped her legs around me, and we continued, Sofia crying out as I drilled my cock into her.
I rolled over with her in my arms and gently placed her on the bed. I then began to explore her body with my mouth, and she moaned loudly as I teased and tantalized her. She cried out as I brought her to orgasm, and then I quickly entered her once again.
We continued like this all night, and I lost count of how many times I made her come. She was exhausted by the time I finally let her rest, and she lay in my arms, panting and sweaty.
"I thought you said that tonight was about me?" She said, and I chuckled.
"It is, but I am not going to deny that I enjoyed myself as well," I said, and she grinned as she snuggled closer to me.
"I love you, Papi." She said, and I grinned.
"I love you too, Hermosa," I said, and then we fell asleep in each other's arms.
