The hivemind is conquering for me?

”Come again?” I asked after repeatedly blinking numerous times. I did my best not to glance down at Nerissa’s body, but I failed instantly.

I was however distracted then by Rhapso exiting her armour.

Rhapso was shorter than Nerissa, only six feet tall, but my eyes went wide upon seeing her petite, yet powerful, body. She was wearing nothing but a few strands of garment covering herself.

She was also uncomfortably attractive. Like Nerissa she gave off an uncanny beauty and was a shade of green. Her face was magic. She had a sharp jawline with a small thin nose and heart shaped red lips and long free flowing blonde hair. Her eyes were neon white and her gaze was incredibly animated, she was enjoying my gaze upon her.

Being a man, I wanted to just sit back and let these ’aliens’ do whatever they wanted to do to me, but Nerissa was my friend and I had to make sure she was ok with this one more time.

”Nerissa. I know we are close, but other than admiring your beauty I have never thought of you this way before... Are you sure you want to do this for me? I’m not a masochist, but if you want, I don’t mind having it cut out... Especially if doing the part after the ritual would make you, or your friend here, uncomfortable.”

Rhapso looked like she was about to say something, but Nerissa glared at her. She then looked at me and surprised me by hugging me. I tried my hardest not to focus on her assets against me and listened to what she had to say.

”Apollo, I am choosing the option I have chosen because you would actively choose the more painful option for my benefit. You would put yourself in harm’s way for my benefit. I want you to understand. I do this because you are my friend, because I caused this problem and I will fix it... And, because I want to. I am... Intrigued.”

I then turned to Rhapso, curious. The closest time I had to a one night stand, Kat not included, was those two lesbians, Alannah and Evie, on the opulence on the way to Euc 1 and I turned that down because it felt weird doing the deed with random people...

”What about you Rhapso? Why are you doing this? I don’t owe you anything. In fact ,if you did this, I would owe you.”

Rhapso walked up to me again and pulled my arm into her cleavage. ”Oh, I am here for the love of the game. I’ve never done either of these things before and Nerissa is my favourite sister so I decided to help when she asked. Don’t feel stressed about this, handsome. I am actually quite excited... Plus I live to serve, ’Apollo.’ Hehe~”

Nerissa then jabbed Rhapso in the ribs quite aggressively before turning back to me and smiling. ”Let’s not get ahead of ourselves first though. Rhapso and I need to perform the ritual. To do so- Wait, did you bring the ingredients?” She asked, turning to the second praetorian.

Rhapso nodded her head and proceeded to stomp on the ground. A second later three cups filled with a thick blue liquid appeared. ”You guys were taking your time to get here, it’s not like a war is taking place or anything outside this glade... So I had time to concoct the mixture while I waited.”

”What does the mixture do?” I inquired as I was passed it by Nerissa, I took a whiff of it and it didn’t smell like any ’blue’ flavour I have had before.

Rhapso answered before Nerissa. ”Oh, well for sis and I, it will allow us to tap into the more Psionic element of our body. It will elevate our consciousness into the Psionic plane and act as pure conduits of nature Psionics, for you though... You are probably going to trip your balls off.”

I was about to state that I have a resistance to poisons, but Nerissa seemed to read my mind. ”Apollo this stuff makes the Psionic alcohol look like water. Trust me, you are going to be in for a good time.”

”Ok... Can I ask a couple more questions before I drink the goofy juice?”

Nerissa waved her hand to give me the go-ahead.

”Alright first, and I am pretty sure I know the answer to this considering how I am feeling and the moon being out, but this glade gate isn’t ’on’ Lleon T1 is it?”

Nerissa shook her head. ”Yes and No. Only us nature Nymphs can open the gates due to special Psionics and our connection to the galaxy. The Drakoshi cannot get in here, so we are perfectly safe as they cannot use Psionics. Think of it as a pseudo Psionic plane sub realm, like Xy’oi’la’py’re told you about”

Hearing that put me at ease. I didn’t want to be hopped up, unable to fight when a bunch of Drakoshi came rolling in. I wouldn’t be able to face the blue lamps with dignity... If I got the option to go to them again...

”Ok, one reservation down. Now I assume you asked Onyx and Sapphire to leave my Mindspace because of either privacy or my Mindspace needs to be clear? You do recall I have... Other things in there right?”

Nerissa’s eyes went wide and so did Rhapso’s.

”Whoa! What? You keep entities inside your Mindspace?!? That is so dangerous and absolutely badass! No wonder Nerissa likes you so much! Do you have room for another praetorian follower, Apollo? Hehehe-” *BONK* ”Ouchy!” Rhapso held the top of her head and pouted as she looked at the stick Nerissa materialised in her hand.

Nerissa then turned to me and then to Rhapso then back to me. ”Hold on a second Apollo. I trust Rhapso, but to make sure.”

She then turned back to her sister and in a stern voice demanded. ”Rhapso, vow on your existence what you are about to see will stay between us. Breaking Apollo’s trust will be breaking my trust and I will never forgive you if you mention what you are about to see to any other living being.”

Rhapso seemed like quite a joker from our short interaction, but as she looked at me. I saw a seriousness in her white eyes. ”I vow never to break your trust about whatever I am about to be shown. May my existence perish if I share this information with anyone you do not give consent to knowing.”

I suddenly felt a thrum of power thrum around the glade after she finished saying that, but right afterwards, she got back to normal and asked. ”So what goodies do you have in your Mindspace? Whip it out! Whip it out!”

I started off simple with Zircon. Rhapso didn’t seem to be impressed with my flying sword. ’If I told her a big sexy hive queen was inside she would think differently’ I thought to myself and as a result, Zircon began to vibrate so hard her blade began to sing.

For the next one, I then gave Nerissa a look and she took a step back, a moment later I felt a great relief on my mental faculties followed by.

”Bleughh!” Rhapso dry heaved instantly upon seeing my stick. I could feel its intent. I wasn’t exactly happy about the lewdness about to commence after the ritual, but understanding it was my tool and it would prevent me from turning into a mega tree, it kept its aura about it.

”A-Apollo.” Nerissa said with great difficulty remaining neutral. ”Can you take it to the very edge of the glade and then come back... Better yet, can you throw it out of the glade? It should be able to breach the Psionics considering its nature?”

I looked at the stick and felt its agreement. It then fell out of my hands before rolling away.

...

The stick knew its master well. The trust master had shown it since its betrayal of possessing his mate was fathomless. It cared for its master in a way the lewd bringers never could. It should have smited them all with its just bonks long ago. Leaving the master pure and uncorrupted, but that would have left the master unhappy.

The stick was the master’s tool. As such it would follow the master’s wishes. Especially now. The master did not wish to be a tree. So it would not hold ill will against the two antithesis beings of its existence. It would allow them to cure him of the condition with lewd actions.

It arrived at the edge of the Psionic ring. It felt the master’s gaze upon it. The master trusted it and it trusted the master. It would wait.

It knew it was only a matter of time before the master needed it to ward off the scourge known as horny once more. And when needed for more than the scourge, it would provide the master with its purifying flame, empowering the master’s Psionics with its antithesis.

For only the master was worthy of blending the two forces together. Only the master was worthy of doing the impossible...
