《The Pharaoh's Dancer》The Handsome Doctor
Advertisement
Amunet woke in an unfamiliar room. She wasn't lying on the ground anymore but the scent of blood still clung to her skin and clouded her senses. She tried to shift herself and to sit up but pain shot through her sides and ached all over her body. She felt a hand across her stomach and came in contact with a soft fabric wrapped tightly around her. It was clear someone had given her medical treatment and had done a fairly decent job.
She managed to rotate her head and look around the room she was currently in. It became clear it wasn't a poor house owner but someone of status and prestige. She noticed the royal red carpet and the expensive artifacts that littered every open space. The faint smell of flowers and medicine hung in the air but Amunet barely noticed it. Amunet rotated again and gritted her teeth when the pain stung her groin again.
"You shouldn't try to move." Amunet looked towards the voice and watched a European doctor stroll into the room. His blonde hair and blue eyes were extremely startling and utterly beautiful. Amunet had never seen someone with such pale skin and the contrast with her own was bewildering.
"Where am I?" She asked looking around and once again trying to sit up. The European outstretched his hand and forced her to lay back down. Seeing him up closer was even stranger for Amunet. He really was beautiful. So beautiful that Amunet desperately wanted to reach a hand out and touch him.
"You are in the palace," he answered her as he began checking her bandages. Amunet raised an eyebrow in confusion. She was almost positive she was dead. Also, she was so far out of the city that it was highly unlikely that anyone would find her. The man glanced at Amunet from the corner of his eye and smiled. "I brought you here. I was getting some medicine from a clerk who was in Heliopolis and on my way back I stumbled upon you. My name is Eugene Mercier, by the way. I work here."

Amunet nodded her head and looked down at the damage of her body.
"How bad is it?" Eugene frowned at her question and turned away from her. He poured himself something to drink along with some water for her. Amunet took it gratefully and downed it hastily.
"You broke some ribs and it looks like you have a concussion. Your right ankle is also sprained and you still have a high fever." Eugene looked over at Amunet again and a sadness crept behind his eyes. "Unfortunately, the injuries to you abdomen caused you to miscarry. From what I could see you were about sixteen weeks along so I'm not surprised if you didn't know you were pregnant."
Amunet felt herself go cold. The air in her lungs seemed to freeze and she felt her hands begin shaking. Beads of sweat broke out on her body and her breathing became harsh and jagged.
"I was pregnant?" Amunet found herself asking. Eugene nodded solemnly. Amunet placed a hand over her stomach. She'd felt different the past few weeks but it never crossed her mind that'd she'd been pregnant. Pregnant with Pharaoh's child. Her eyes immediately shot back to Eugene. "What was it?"
The question seemed to hang in the air for eternity. Eugene seemed puzzled by her question but slowly he realized what she was asking. He looked towards the ground and sighed.
"It was a boy."

2039 - Earth A narrow beam energy signal appeared aimed squarely at earth from the TRAPPIST system. The communication consisted of a layered set of repeating data over several thousand wavelengths. Over the next few months scientists discovered that the lower wavelengths carried an encoded numerical language which could then be used to interpret the more complicated messages carried on the higher wavelengths. After half a year of painstaking work the signal was fully decoded. It described a small satellite launched along a precise trajectory towards the fourth planet of our solar system. Included was a package of advanced research that humanity would need to have ready in order to receive the satellite and decelerate it safely. The alien data provided the kick that humanity needed to turn from petty squabbling and unite to explore the final frontier. Major government and corporate leaders worked together to create the framework for the United Federation of Sol. UFS spaceports went from scaffolding to daily launches in every major city around the globe. Ships floated like dandelion seeds, spreading on solar wind to grow into colonies. 2397 - Mars orbit, Egeria Station The command center was a hive of activity as checks were conducted and systems initialized. Scientists flitted by like mayflies as communicators beeped and holoscreens spat out green tinted readouts. Nervous energy was thick in the air as everyone anticipated the culmination of over three hundred years of work. Massive fusion reactors under the planet's surface thrummed with barely restrained power as energy fed into a gleaming metallic maze criss crossing the planet. Metal fingers reached up, overshadowing the mighty olympus mons and trying to grab the stars. All over the solar system, people quickly turned to look as gigantic energy lances shot from the dusty fourth planet. Two years later. The same people that clapped loudly at the successful activation of project Hermes now wait with baited breath. A silver capsule trailing bright photonic sails is captured by a net of grav beams and guided with care bordering on reverence into the station. Holoscreens across the headquarters project an image of the sleek craft settling in the bay. Data connections are established and the holoscreens blink to white. Slowly an image forms on the screen. Across the headquarters people stare in wonder as a wholly alien face stares back. "Contact established. Welcome to the universe."
8 155The Cosmic and the Fair
When magic comes crashing into the world, humans are swept away. When they come trickling back, they are changed. Many of them have been transformed into elves, dwarves, trolls... and now one succubus. Magic is wondrous, dangerous, and inextricably linked to all living things. But succubi have to take it from other people, and for a succubus dropped far away from any communities big enough to sustain her, that's a problem. Luckily for Persephone Evans, she's got help. She has a fancy unique class and a companion. But both gifts come with strings attached, and why did she have to teach the succubus on her shoulder what 'consent' means? This is my first story! Note: The prologue differs wildly in tone from the rest of the story. I'm playing it safe on the tags. I don't think the story really deserves the profanity or gore content warnings, but the main character does swear and get hurt. That said, the main character is a succubus. Sexual content is a given.
