Chapter 3 -- To Boldly Cum Where No Man Has Cummed Before
She stood on a raised platform, all sleek curves, sass, and seduction. Her smooth skin shone like bronze beneath the Martian sun. Her belly as flat and hard as steel. She had everything Brüt loved: a killer set of turrets; a tight little docking port; long, shapely thrust boosters; and a huge, round badonkadonk. A SpaceForce Pussygrabber 9000 X'Treme D'Lux, the premiere luxury cruiser of the final days of the American Empire. A real cherry ride.
He ran his hand along the gold-plated exterior of the SFPG9kXD and let out a long, appreciative whistle. Bitchkicker whinnied and stomped his front foot, jealous of the attention Brüt was giving to this other mode of transport. He took a few steps back and ruffled the horse's mane. "Oh, this'll do. This'll do nicely."
The catgirl, Kitty or Pussy or something like that, stood on the loading ramp. "Get away from my ship, you dense doucheshit."
Brüt led Bitchkicker by the bit toward the ramp. The catgirl stared at them with obvious appreciation bordering on devotion. Thank you for saving me, her eyes said. I owe you a lifedebt, Master Stallyn.
"Get the bleeding hell off my ship," her mouth said. Brüt knew it was only posturing, though. Everything else about her screamed 'I love you. I want you. Take me. Ravage me!' Unfortunately for her, she was totally not his type. Skinny, athletic, furry, bitchy, and lacking the voluptuous curvature of a real woman.
He smirked at her and brushed past her on his way into the ship's storage hold.
She appeared in front him, a hand against his chest, glowering. "What are you doing? For fuck's sake, leave me alone!"
He flashed his toothy smile and brushed her hand away. If he didn't know better, he might think she wanted him to leave. "You're welcome."
She shut her eyes tight and took a few deep breaths. "Okay, asshole. What do you want from me? Are you high? Because I can give you some stardust or enough credits to score some down at whatever's left of the club."
Brüt furrowed his brow. "You and me, we're not so different, kitten." He slipped an arm around her thin shoulders.
"It's Kitty," she muttered, pulling away from his touch.
He gestured grandly, looking off into the distance in the most contemplative and badass way possible. "We're both hunters. Killers. Loners. Outlaws. Moving from place-to-place in pursuit of excitement, the thrill of the kill, the taste of gunsmoke, the smell of charred flesh, the feel of cold hard steel in our hands. Looking to cash in bounties for über-dangerous missions."
She sighed as Brüt stood on the deck of her cargo hold, striking an overconfident, macho pose and completely ignoring her. "Whatever. Tell you what, I can give you a lift as far as the nearest Imperial outpost, but then I'm cashing in this bounty and I'm gone. Got it? We are not friends. We are not partners. And you are most definitely NOT my 'Master.'"
He winked at her and cracked his knuckles. "That's Master Brüt to you, kitten."
She sighed and shook her head. "Fine. Is this everything? The horse and the guns?"
Brüt chuckled. "That's all I need, baby."
"Good," she said, not even waiting for him to finish before she hit the 'door close' button. She scampered up the hanging ladder through the main hatch, yanked up the ladder and slammed the hatch down, sealing it tight.
Brüt clicked his tongue and looked around the empty cargo hold while the ship's engines roared to life.
She took off without warning, blasting upward with such G-force that Brüt was flattened against the floor. Bitchkicker whinnied and tossed his head in protest. As soon as they broke atmosphere, however, the acceleration-induced gravity gave way to relative weightlessness. Brüt cracked his neck and eyed the sealed entry hatch. That ditzy catgirl forgot to let him into the cabin. He pounded on the wall, then used the ruined remains of Rack to bang on the hatch.
The intercom crackled to life. "Please stop hitting my ship," said the catgirl, her voice abnormally loud over the speakers. The SFPG9kXD had a top-of-the-line sound system. Brüt expected no less.
"I tried to warn you," she said, "and I really hate to do you like this, but I've got a schedule to keep and you just won't listen, so.... Well, you get the idea."
Yellow lights began flashing and a low, buzzing alarm blared as the cargo ramp groaned open. The hydraulics were old and the door moaned and creaked as it forced its mouth wider, from a smirk to a grin and on toward the gaping maw of a hungry sandworm. The air rushed out of the hold along with a few stray pieces of scrap metal and a wrench that had been forgotten somewhere in the cavernous metal underbelly of the ship. Bitchkicker strained against the pull of the infinite vacuum of space, but without gravity to ground him to the floor of the hold, he was racing against the inevitable. Brüt kicked his heels together and activated his antigrav boots on reverse polarity, anchoring him to the floor. He grabbed Bitchkicker's hoof as the horse spun past, kicking helplessly at the floor and the air. "Hold your breath, Kicker!" he shouted, then pinched his own nose with his free hand. Bitchkicker whinnied, then clamped his own equine nostrils shut.
The lack of air and the incessant pull of nothingness were far from the only issue, though. Space was cold. Damn cold. Just a few degrees above absolute zero, the point at which all life, all movement, all energy ceases to be. Absolute zero is the point at which nothing... not even light... can survive. Compared to a perfect summer day of 75 degrees Fahrenheit, the vacuum of space was a solid 500 degrees colder than Brüt preferred. And about 450 degrees below the freezing point of water. In those temperatures, a man's blood would freeze solid in his veins. His skin would crystallize upon contact causing instantaneous tissue death. His eyeballs would glass over inside his head and his cerebral fluid would freeze so hard and so fast that the expansion of that fluid would burst his skull like a piss-filled water balloon dropped from the top of the Empire State Building.
