The hivemind is conquering for me?

True to her word, Nerissa parted the sea of people as she moved until we made it to the next set of checkpoints. ”Guard, This man, his sister and Sepiida are to be documented now.” The man, in military uniform, gulped and stared at Nerissa until she walked past him, allowing him to breathe in relief.

He then turned to the three individuals. ”You, Alien, come through now, you aren’t needed.” Orchid and Janine stepped forward immediately, before I pulled back slightly on Orchids shoulder, keeping her in place.

Janine passed through without the man even glancing at her, a dangerous liability as what if she had bombs strapped to her torso? Reckless speciesism.

I then went before Orchid to set an example of what she should do. It was best to let her adapt to how I react to everything compared to her making her own plan. The man in line then smiled at me as I approached and picked up his Data pad.

”Welcome friend of the Praetorian, an honour to meet you. Now, while your status is inconsequential when we are on the moon, for now I need your full name with any titles you may possess. This check is a bit more intrusive than the one you just received upon entry, but don’t worry, there will be no probing. Hahaha!”

I kept a deadpan expression, causing the man to cough with an uncomfortable tension. ”So, name?” he asked.

”Archon Apollo Hyllus-Lambdason of Apollo-minor.” The man looked up. ”Hyllus?” He seemed particularly curious about my hair. ”Adopted.” I corrected the man’s thinking, causing the man to nod in recognition before writing in my name.

His eyebrows raised curiously at whatever he was reading, prompting him to look up at me soon after. ”Your planet was lost to the swarm? My condolences. Now, it says here you have a permit for alien weaponry, do you have that with you? You will have to declare it now or risk fining or expulsion if found at a later date.”

I found that reasonable, so I unsheathed Zircon from my waste and placed it down on the desk next to us. As I did so, the man looked at it and whistled with an impressed tone. ”That’s a beaut’ of a sword right there. Let me juussst~ ok documented with photo. Anything else to declare equipment wise before we move on?”

I nodded my head before warning the man that I was donning my armour and not to freak out when it happened. The man simply took a step back to give me room and before he finished taking his next step, he marvelled over how my armour engulfed me.

”#Tcch, Andurs, what is happening over there, over. Do you require aid?” The man swiftly picked up a nearby device and relayed back. ”Negative! Simple declaration, alien tech. No need to party.”

He then got a concerned ’copy’ back from the nearby guard, before looking at me. ”That is... certainly alien tech. Goodness, you look like a mini knight in that thing. Where did it come from by the way? It just appeared on you.”

To show, I put my armour in standby mode and showed to vambrace on my arm after it was finished. ”My armour stores itself inside my arm... Too much scientific rigmarole to explain right now.”

”Underclothing armour.” The man simply murmured as he wrote down something in the data pad he was holding before saying. ”Ok, thank you for your compliance, let us move on. You are on this side of the compound because you have agreed to engage in the marshal aspect of the college. Now, how many Psionic powers do you possess? One, two, three, or three plus?”

”Um, three plus?” I said, causing the man to look up from his pad for a moment before looking back down. ”Ok... Can you list your four most used abilities for combat purposes. If you don’t know the Psionic terms for your abilities, you can simply say ’Physical enhancement’ for example.

I nodded my head in understanding before I said. ”Pyrokinesis, Gyrokinesis, Psionic enhancement and Psionic bullets. I would dub the top contenders.” The man looked up at me concerned for a moment before composing himself.

”You have quite the laid back temperament for a Fire guy. I can respect that, they are usually blowhards.” I chuckled at his statement. ”So I have been told.” The man then processed that information before looking up at me with a frown.

”Um, It states here that during a mission you ran on a planet dubbed Decima, that you were able to ’summon’ a great blue beast? Are you able to do that, the beast needs to be documented.”

”Oh you mean my little kitten? Sure, give me a second. ”Sapphire, do you want to come and show off? Materialise next to Nerissa and let out your pride!” A few moments later without prompt, a loud, powerful roar shook fear into all those around. Those nearby that turned to identify the source of the roar quickly ran away from the blue creature, shit scared.

”Ahhhh!” ”What is that!” ”Guards! Guards!”

I smiled smugly at my chonkasauras rex before expressing my intent to get smaller before the guards started filling her with holes. She looked around temporarily, noticing all the entities around her.

She suddenly felt incredibly territorial of her master. and shrank down before walking over and proceeded to give kisses and rubs. ”Oh! Someone is in a phenomenal mood today aren’t they? So cute, so cute. Who is the cutie? You are the cutie!”

I said receiving an assortment of ’Mows and moo’s’ . The man with the data pad in his hand was incredibly proud that he did not just shit himself, but was still baffled how this Apollo figure could call the beast, cute.

Just as he was about to ask to keep the beast still for the documentation, he suddenly heard shouting. ”Move, move out of the way pissants! MOVE I said!” A weaselly man in his twenties pushed back the brave crowd who returned upon realising the blue beast was harmless.

As he made his way towards us, he suddenly keeled over, placing his knees on his hands as he attempted to catch his breath. ”Ah fuck, fucking stitch, gahh~” He then continued to breathe heavily for another few moment before he looked up towards Sapphire with an uncomfortable look in his eyes.

Oh look at it! I have never seen anything like this creature! Sir, wherever did you acquire such a specimen? Name your price! Anything and I will pay it. 200 billion? No problem. I want her for myself.”

Sapphire and I exchanged a look. Before looking back at the man, who then shrieked. ”HOLY FUCK IS IT INTELLIGENT! 500 Billion! Oh you delight! I am going to treat you so well, we are going to be unstoppable together!”

He then tried to reach out to pet my Kitten, to which I stepped between them. ”Look, whoever you are-” ”-Ah! Where are my manners! Echemus Petrotis of the noble Petrotis family, I am sure you have heard of-

”-Oh fucking hell, you are not related to that Yacob are you? Dude makes my skin crawl...” The man with the datapad said, causing Echemus to nod. ”You know uncle Yacob? I am here to be his understudy.”

The man frowned upon hearing this. ’Kill me now... Two of them...’ He thought because the new Petrotis spoke up. ”Now excuse me pleb, we are discussing a business transaction here. So, 500 billion? Deal?”

I shook my head. ”No dude, Sapphire is not for sale.” I said. ”Mow!” Sapphire agreed. Echemus narrowed his eyes. ”Is that so? That is very short sighted of you Sir. Sapphire. {COME HERE!}”

I could feel a Psionic current in his words followed by nothing. Sapphire and I looked at one another inspecting ourselves. ”You good?” ”Mow” ”That was odd.” ”Mow” I then turned to the rude individual who was looking at me with wide eyes who then suddenly drew a gun from the holster on his waist. ”Tell me how you did that! NOW! It makes no sense! She should be mine! She sho-

The man’s face suddenly fell out of my frame and in place was a familiar fist. Connected to the fist was a very pissed off Orchid who then walked over to the man who I had been talking to and said.

”He is not dead. In compliance with the rules, I had the right to defend my family member when unprovoked with violence of equal proportion to the threat. The man pulled a firearm, I struck him with enough force to give him a mild concussion. Will there be further problems?”

’I am going to shit myself.’ The man thought. The beast might have been one thing, but this woman was terrifying. He felt like a little mouse being hunted by well... The blue beast there, he didn’t stand a chance.

”N-N-No there are no problems- erm~ Apollo sir, you are cleared, miss, would you begin with your background please?” Orchid snorted, glad there would be no further agitation over Apollo. She then turned around to all the faces staring at her and squinted her eyes menacingly and growled out.

”What?”
