Zhartha looked once again at the compartments that housed each of the specimens. He had managed to recreate the furniture he had observed in the female specimen's dreams; a four poster bed. Since the male specimen had not dreamed of a bed in the days following his sequencing, Zhartha created the same type of bed for him as well.
"Activate brain monitors and set for continuous data recording," spoke Zhartha.
The female specimen had been fitted with an "X" shaped harness around her breasts and chest to support her spine when she stood or sat up. He was quite pleased with her appearance. He pressed a button on the console and a small hissing sound could me heard as the gas entered the compartment. He stood and watched; waiting for the specimen to regain consciousness.
Laura opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar surroundings. She felt the harness against her chest and raised her hands to her breasts; 'no not hers' she panicked; her breasts weren't this big, but now they were. Fear and panic swept through her brain and body; she tried to find a way to remove the harness. Her head snapped up when she heard him speak.
"It cannot be removed; your struggles are in vain," said Zhartha.
He was tall; had to be at least seven foot she guessed. Everything on him was proportionately large; head, hands and feet.
"Who are you?! What have you done to me?!" she cried.
Zhartha stepped closer, "My name is Zhartha and I'm an observer; I guess on your world I'd be known as a scientist. As to what I have done to you; well let's just say that I've prepared your body for an experiment."
Laura started to cry in fear and once again looked down at her breasts; they were huge. They felt hard and firm, but were the size of cantaloupes.
Zhartha continued, "The harness is there to support your spine. Your DNA has been sequenced to accommodate my larger frame. You are to be impregnated to see if a blending of our two species is viable."
He moved over to another door in the compartment, "I have provided you with a chamber for body waste removal. I am not familiar with the procedure for your species; you will have to instruct me on what is needed."
He moved back to the compartment's door, "I will bring nourishment for your consumption in a short while. You might wish to move about and familiarize yourself since you will be here quite a long time." Zhartha left and sealed the compartment. He walked down to the male specimen's compartment.
Laura cried for a long time; prisoner and to be impregnated. She felt like she was a lab rat in one of her own experiments. Her brain finally accepted the situation; after all, she was a scientist herself. 'Hunter becomes the hunted' she thought or in her case 'the experimenter becomes the experiment'. She had no idea where she was at, but concluded that it was not Earth; she would have to see his experiment to the conclusion.
After a while, she felt the urge to pee so she swung her legs off the bed and swayed trying to regain her balance; she wasn't use to her breasts. The harness automatically strengthened her frame providing support for her back and breasts. She scooted down to the end of the bed and held on to it to the mattress stand. She walked around the edge of the bed to make sure she could walk without falling over.
Laura made her way to the side door and looked around; it just seemed like an empty room to her. "How do I pee?" Laura spoke to at least hear her own voice.
"Rephrase question," a voice from some unknown place said.
Laura did an intake, "Who are you?"
"Computer Automated System, rephrase question."
Laura thought for a moment, "How do I eliminate body waste from kidneys?"
A panel on the wall lit up, "Press panel. Place receptacle around elimination site. Replace receptacle when finished."
Laura proceeded over to the panel and placed her hand against it. The panel slid open to reveal the 'receptacle' attached to some kind of hose. To her it looked like something an astronaut might use in space. She followed the instructions and placed it between her legs and up against her body; her urine was sucked into the hose. She then replaced the receptacle back inside the panel.
"How do I clean myself?" Laura asked.
Another panel was lit on the wall and she pressed it. A clear cylinder appeared from the side, "Stand in chamber and attached hands on placements" the CAS instructed.
Laura hesitated, but then did as instructed. She felt something invisible hit her body and she blacked out. When she came to, Zhartha was sitting next to her on the bed.
"That's better; very unfortunate," he commented.
"What happened?" asked Laura.
