Something was wrong.
Lily lay still, keeping her eyes closed.
"Something is very wrong here."
The bed felt normal. It wasn't too warm or cool in the room. It was still dark. Suddenly it dawned on her. Silence!
Normally she would be able to hear traffic down below on the streets, the not-unwelcome sound of other human beings. The sounds of the city. Now there was nothing.
Lily opened her eyes and gasped. She was in her own bed, still wearing her panties and over-sized shirt, but she wasn't in her apartment any more.
The room was small. The walls around her were metallic and bare. The roof was curved, making the room into a half-sphere.
Lily sat up and frowned.
"Come to think of it," she thought, "I don't remember going to sleep."
As Lily sat there and tried not to panic, she became aware of a gradual glow from above. There were no visible light sources, but after a short wait she could see clearly.
A disembodied voice spoke out: "Do not be afraid. You are safe."
"Who said that? Where am I?"
"I am C21," replied the voice in a steady, mechanical monotone, "You are aboard my ship."
"Have I been kidnapped?"
"In a way. I have been observing you for some time, I believe you are the correct subject."
"Subject? What are you talking about? "
"There will be no mistakes this time."
Lily started to panic, "What the hell is going on here? Let me out!"
"Please, you must remain calm. I require you to answer some questions before we begin. What is your title?"
"My title? My name is Lily."
"Very well, Lily. Have you bred before this date?"
"Bred?"
"The process by which your species procreates."
"None of your damn business."
"Ah. You have such strange customs. Never mind, I've done the appropriate research."
Lily got out up of off the bed and carefully examined the walls, looking for an escape. There didn't seem to be any visible sign of one.
"Please, whoever you are, let me out of here! I'll do anything you ask. Anything!"
"That is good, I had feared that this would be difficult. Are you prepared to breed?"
"You want to fuck me?"
"I am very certain that we would not be compatible, though there is some merit to such an experiment. I wish for you to to create a child."
Lily considered her options.
"I guess I have no choice. Do I get to pick my partner?"
"I'm afraid not. I've studied the mating materials of your species, I know what you require and have it prepared."
Suddenly the room became violently bright and Lily was forced to cover her eyes.
As the room became visible once more, Lily prepared herself to meet the lucky guy. She had been good to her body and considered herself quite attractive, with natural curves and full but still perky breasts. She hoped her partner would meet a similar standard.
What met her eyes was not quite to her expectations.
Laying across Lily's bed was a stunning young redhead. A woman.
The two looked at one another.
"What the fuck!" exclaimed the redhead.
"This isn't going to work!" Lily yelled.
"I understand that your customs normally do not allow strangers to breed," said C21, "I urge you to continue in spite of this."
"What are you talking about? You want me to get pregnant, right?" asked Lily.
"Either of you would be appropriate."
"We're both women."
"Yes. You require a pair to procreate, do you not?"
"I don't know where you get your information, but-"
"Please cease your resistance. This is my final answer. I order the two of you to breed."
The redhead looked up at Lily, "This guy is nuts."
"You're telling me. I guess we should, well..."
"I guess. Why don't you start. I've never been with a woman."
"Neither have I."
Lily gingerly climbed back onto the bed. She couldn't help but feel just a little excited.
