Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2020 21:50:06 +0000 (UTC) From: cgf2662 Subject: The Z-1 Ranch P-42 The Z-1 Ranch P-42 CGW© Outside Caleb was calm as he could be, but on the inside he was furious. His parents had always told him to never respect Genman trash nor those who slept with them because they were just as much trash as the ones they slept with. Now he had to report to a Genman as his mentor and training supervisor, what kind Mickey Rat hospital was this joint. If he told his father it would be a gigantic mess and he would never be accepted into an apprentice medical program anywhere on the planet. But the thought of having to shadow a Genman made him sick to his stomach. After all the introductions were made, they were released for lunch. Caleb had to accompany his new supervisor to the lunch area and he would have to sit beside him and eat with the thing how humiliating. Caleb asked to be excused for the restroom and he would meet up with them in the dining area. When he arrived at the table occupied by Rupert and Matt the table was set immaculately. Caleb looked around at the other empty tables and realize that theirs was the only one that was set in a formal setting. Excuse me but how do we rate the table that's completely set up with all of the trimmings and everyone else's is empty no disrespect but who the heck are you two. Matt started laughing; Rupert here cannot eat a meal at an empty table he has to set the table for dining no matter where he's at so blame him for the table being set up. Rupert kind of blushed; it's something that I learned reading and proper etiquette when you're taking meals with someone else as a guest for the first time and you are my guest along with Matt who has been dining with me a lot at the employees dining area in our clinic on the Z1. Caleb set down and felt almost out of place, his mom set a table every night but it was just dishes thrown here and there and you picked up everything yourself. This table was set like a four-star restaurant. Rupert spoke up; I hope that I don't embarrass you because I went ahead and preordered our meal. I hope you like roasted star bird along with sautéed greens seared carrots and roasted potatoes and fresh-baked bread. It seemed like a piece offering from me to you for what happened earlier. No Sir if anyone should be offering a piece of the olive branch it should be me, but the way I was raised it doesn't work out here in the real world. The last six years I've studied at colleges and all night long at the library's just to get as far as I am and I can't screw this up. Matt spoke up; don't worry Caleb you're going to make it through this, were all allowed to stumble along the way and even fall down but it's how we choose to get up and continue on in our journey during life that's what makes us who we are. When I first met Rupert; he made me feel inferior, but as I've gotten used to him it's like we've known each other for years we worked like a well-oiled machine. Here I was a skilled surgeon, and OB/GYN specialist who worked in the neonatal center at Hawthorne Memorial and when it came to finding out about another race of humanoids, I was dumber in dirt and twice as stupid. It took Rupert to show me what Genmen were like really how far advanced they are physically, mentally and technologically. And the hybrids have the best of both worlds. Not that I'm meaning to be disrespectful, but I was always told that Genmen were dirty and nasty, filthy creatures less than a human. Humans that slept with them and reproduced these hybrids were just low-class dirt. Matt chuckled; that couldn't be any further from the truth, Genmen are very self-conscious about their physical being. They don't like to smell, even though they work hard and sweat a lot they will actually stay away from each other until their showered and smelling fresh. Anything that their body odor may be considered offensive to they are even more offended themselves if they displease you. Given educational opportunities the genman mind can absorb 10 times the knowledge of the human mind. Rupert here has a photographic memory so that anything he sees or reads; it is retained by him. In other words, it's like a gigantic sponge always soaking up knowledge sometimes it's a little unsettling but I'll have to do is ask about any kind of medical procedure he can talk me through it. And their vision, they can see things with their eyes that humans cannot see without a spectral imaging microscope. Caleb realized that he was a novice when it came to judging someone else because of the way he was raised. He apologized to Rupert again. Rupert's eyes lit up as he saw lunch coming their way, Caleb if you've never had star bird before you are in for a delicious treat. I hope that you enjoy your meal and that I did not overstep my bounds but this was a little peace offering so that we can enjoy our time together as coworkers and maybe even friends later. Matt watched as Caleb was a little apprehensive of taking his first bite, but once it hit his tastebuds the young man's eyes lit up. He sampled everything and commented; this is the best food that I have ever tasted in my life. I can't believe that I have been missing something this delicious all because of stupidity and ignorance of my father and mother's prejudice. Rupert chuckled; most humans don't know what it takes to survive when our forefathers were starving to death after the crash of the slave transport, they took to eating any wild game that was available but they drew the line at rackknars those things are nasty and no one wants to eat them. Did you say a slave transport, I've never heard of that in all of my learnings that was never taught to us we were told that it was a cargo ship that crashed? Well Caleb it was a cargo ship, the only thing that was on it as cargo were Genmen, the females ruled over the males and use them for breeding purposes only. The males were bred by size to get strength and durability for building purposes and occasionally a female would take a male during her cycle and allow it to breed her then he was castrated and put in the rookery to help raise the children and continue on birthing children for any and all males. I'm not calling you out a liar or anything Rupert but where did you learn all this at. Is there a written record or anything that brings proof of this, because if there is, we need to teach this to all humans? Matt spoke up; there is a museum that has just been opened up at the Z1, it has actual videography of the ship on the inside before it crashed, logs of the Royal Court that was on board along with Capt.'s updates and logs. Parts of the ship were salvaged and mockups of the inside and actual slave quarters are there at the Museum. There's a restaurant, a very complex library with historical records from Genmen and human cultures alike. When we're through here with the symposium you have an open invitation to visit and stay the weekend to experience what you need to so that you can be a wonderful doctor for anyone who walks in for treatment. You know Matt, one word from either one of us and he could do a rotation out there at the Z1 so that he could truly understand how Genmen, hybrids and their human counterparts live together in harmony. Plus, the new clinic that's being opened up in town for the local human inhabitants can always use a good young doctor. When he heard the word new clinic and young doctor Caleb's ears perked up. Did you say a new clinic in a Township? Rupert replied; yes, I did but first we have to make it through all this here and you need a little bit more training preferably at the Z1 because when you're in town and one of the construction crews hurt you just might be working on a genman or even a hybrid along with the humans. Hopes up for you yet. The rest the meal was eaten in relative silence as time was running short. When the meal was finished the table was cleared and Rupert give thanks for the meal. They went upstairs for their assignments, Rupert and Caleb were assigned to the Chief of Staff Ron Smithers for the next two days. Rupert was very pleased Caleb on the other hand was a little apprehensive, he figured it was a way that the Chief of Staff could keep an eye on him and Cull him at any second. For the next six hours Rupert was put through his paces, he got to shine as he answered every question that was put before him on diseases and treatments of humans. Caleb took notes the entire time he couldn't believe that one person could contain that much knowledge in his head. He was definitely impressed by this genman. At the end of the day everyone said their goodbyes and went to the hotel, Caleb had three roommates there were two to a bed, two beds in the room. One of the other roommates wasn't so pleasant and asked Caleb well how was it did he rub his vent up against you and just how bad does he stink. There was a turning point to the conversation when the roommate asked him; how long you think it's gonna take you to get into that vent and fuck it, maybe make a hybrid in him send him back to that ranch of his all swollen up. Before Caleb could think about it the other young man was laying on the floor knocked out. He turned and looked at the other two roommates and asked them; you want to make a response; you want make a remark. I am assigned to Rupert; he is my mentor for this duration there's nothing going on between us other than student and mentorship. If you have any derogatory remarks to say them and you can sleep with him. The next morning the roommate had a busted swollen lip, bruised jaw and cheek. Nothing was said by anyone they all needed this required course to graduate. The young man's face did not go unnoticed by the Chief of Staff, when questioned the young man only said that he was accidentally hit by door coming out of the bathroom, it would be okay. But he noticed the red marks on Caleb's right knuckles and put two and two together. There just might be hope for this young man yet he thought. Between rounds Ron asked Caleb to meet him in his office. Caleb was standing in front of the Chief of Staff's desk with his arms tucked behind him. Ron looked up at Caleb; young man show me your hands please. After seeing the knuckles on his right hand swollen, he asked Caleb what transpired in the hotel room and it wasn't no damn door. And you better be truthful with me as though as it is sending one home, I can just as easily send two home. He disrespected my mentor Sir; I will not get into the disparity of which he did but even though it was wrong to hit him that's the only way he would ever learn after the statement that he made. Okay so he said something bad about Rupert, what was so bad that you had to punch him? Sir I would rather not say. Enlighten me young Caleb Allen so that I can make a proper determination or I will send you home and you will not graduate. Now sit down and be out with it. Caleb looked down at the floor, first he asked me did he rubbed his vent up against me, then he progressed to how bad did he stink. But when he talked about me getting into that Genmen's vent and sending him back to his ranch swollen up with a baby, my child. Sir that stepped over the line, Rupert or no one deserves to be talked about like that, it's just not right. Okay I understand why you did it, you were protecting the young man's honor and the other pupil was definitely out of line talking like that, and it won't be allowed not here at this hospital and it shouldn't be allowed anywhere but people will be stupid. But don't do it again, I don't want you to hurt your hands, because your career depends upon the skill in your hands. Your dismissed, I'll deal with your roommate now. A meeting was called all the participants were required to meet in the auditorium. On the projection board there was a -1 written in bold letters. I had hoped to keep this number at zero but we are now into our second day and -1, I don't want to see a -2 or even a -3. We here are professionals and we are held at a higher standard than normal everyday people. If you don't feel that you cannot get along with your coworkers, staff members or even your patients take your little packet leave it on your desk and leave right now because you're in the wrong profession. I am the chief administrator of Hawthorne Memorial Hospital and I will not tolerate any disrespectful behavior towards anyone else whether it's behind their back or to their faces. Do not make me get to -2 because then you will see a side of me that you do not want to meet and I hope that you truly understand this. Everyone's dismissed to go to their appropriate teams and leave the auditorium now goodbye. Caleb took a deep breath and walked up to Rupert, I'm ready to continue my education Sir. Rupert could tell something was different about Caleb this morning but he let it be. The day was very busy and they both took notes and followed the Chief of Staff through his rounds. At the end of the day Rupert asked Caleb if he would like to dine with him and Matt that evening, Caleb graciously denied the honor and told him maybe in a few days, he was just really tired and needed to study and get plenty of rest. That night was kind of rough on the two bed mates, Matt realized just how beautiful Rupert really was as he watched him disrobe. Clad in only underwear Matt watched him pick up the small case and gently remove his pump system. Matt had never seen anyone use one before and this was a brand-new experience for him. Rupert apologize to Matt and told him that he could walk into the bathroom to do the pump if offended him in any way or made him even uneasy. Matt shook his head no; you don't have to go anywhere this is something I need to get use to and there's no time like the present. Do you need help with it? Rupert cocked his head; well Dr. Matt Stirling are you offering to help me pump my nectar glands or do you just want to cop a feel. Matt blushed; we're colleagues and I just asked if you needed any help, I've never seen it done for and it would be a learning tool for me also. Rupert chuckled; first of all, you can take some of this lubricant here and gently applied to both of my nipples after you get them fully coated, I will show you how to apply the pump so that it gets best section and it can drain me. Matt couldn't believe how firm Rupert's nectar glands were, they must really be full. As he applied the lubricant to the nipple some of the nectar oozed out. Taking directions from Rupert he applied the suction pump to his left nipple and turned on the gentle suction of the machine. Matt was amazed how the nectar just shot out every time that pump went into suction mode, the machine emulated the suction motion of suckling. Rupert didn't think it was anything strange and invited Matt to take a sample out of his right gland. Matt was almost petrified, here was his coworker offering his gland up and the nectar that it contained as a sampling. Matt; it's not a big deal Genmen do it all the time, when there's not a suction device around we offer our glans up for another to partake from, it's very nourishing it helps build up immunity within the bodies and fights off diseases that the body carries around naturally and humans carry a lot of them. As Matt locked his lips around his right nipple and gently began to suck, Rupert felt an immediate calming effect as his body relaxed. Matt was gentle as he sucked up on Rupert's nipple, the nectar was so sweet it was almost like honey. He felt like he could get used to this kind of treatment. Neither one knew that they were falling for each other and their bodies were aligning for what was yet to come. Before Matt knew it, he had drained Rupert's right gland of its contents. I'm so sorry I got carried away I know I was just to take a sample but it tastes so good I'm sorry. That's okay Matt, they'll be half-full tomorrow morning again and you can have them both before breakfast if you want. The machine is a little impersonal but it keeps them from getting so full that they hurt. Having someone draining them for you is always so much nicer and it releases pent-up hormones in our bodies. All Matt could think about that night as he slept was the taste of the nectar and how nice it felt sucking on Rupert's gland. The next morning found the two in a position that neither one thought of, Matt was spooned behind Rupert but nothing happened as Rupert's vent was tucked. Both of the men were a little bit embarrassed the next morning. Rupert was the first one in the shower and he washed and cleaned himself ignoring the little itch that he had inside. Matt went to the shower and locked the door so he could have some alone time and relieve some of the pressure that he was feeling on his engorged testicles. Rupert smelled Matt's seed as it was released in the other room during the shower and it made that itch even worse. It wasn't his time so this shouldn't be happening and he ignored it. Three fourths the way through the day Ron noticed a small down spot on Rupert's right chest area pull the young man to the side and mentioned the situation that he might want to start watching his self and pump more often than the normal three days. Rupert was embarrassed and assured the Chief of Staff that he had drained himself the night before and was almost dry this morning. But he would drain again as soon as he got to the hotel room. Until then Ron handed Rupert to his orbit patches to wear under his shirt so that he wouldn't leaking more. Caleb was oblivious to anything that was going on and thought maybe the perfect Rupert had dropped something on a shirt at lunch and had forgotten to wipe it off. By the time the end of the day came Rupert was full of nectar. Only pregnant Genmen did this, lactating to this point as they were ready to give birth and there wasn't any possibility that had happened. He was still over two months away from his cycle date, he didn't know what was going but he was coming up on his first full six months cycle. Rupert and Matt arrived at the hotel room and entered; no sooner Rupert was in there he was taking off his shirt. Matt looked at him; wow what happened to you, your full again normally that doesn't happen, it takes 3 to 5 days to fill up that full. Matt, I know that too and they are too full to get the pump on my nipples, they are engorged, it won't work with the machine. If I lay back Matt, we you please help me out like you did last night for fun, but I need you to do at this time please. He didn't have to be asked twice he was on that nipple in two seconds, he began alternating between the two of them to gently relieve the pressure. You could tell the relief on Rupert's face as he laid there and Matt had a good drink. After Matt was finished and very full, Rupert got up off the bed removed his shoes and dropped his pants to the floor, he also removed his underwear and headed to the shower, Matt couldn't help but notice that when he bent over his vent was in full view like it was starting to swell. He decided not to say anything because he didn't want to embarrass Rupert. Rupert come out of the shower wrapped in nothing but a robe, if you don't mind, I'm going to skip supper tonight I'm really tired and I just don't feel like going out. Don't worry I'll go order something from the kitchen and bring it back, you can have supper in bed served to you by your resident doctor. The two started snickering after that statement, Matt went downstairs to retrieve their supper. Rupert wasn't really concerned, more annoyed by the itch he had deep inside his vent. Matt returned with the meal and drinks, hamburgers and French fries with milkshakes. As the two of them ate the meal Matt took to teasing Rupert with the fries, he put it next to his lips and as he was just going to take a bite, he pulled it back. The two were having fun and laughing, Matt decided it was time for him to kiss Rupert just to see if there was anything there. The kiss caught Rupert off-guard but he didn't stop it and kissed Matt back. He was left breathless and he felt his vent puff up. He realized what was happening, he was wet. Matt stood up and stripped off his clothes and crawled back on the bed, I cannot deny myself anymore, I've felt it for a long time. I going to make love to you and I don't mean just sex, I want to make love. Matt; that is not a good idea I don't have any condoms and you don't want to have a baby with me, do you because I can feel my cycle starting. Matt leaned down and picked up Rupert's legs and put them on his shoulders, I want you just the way you are but if there's a baby as a result of it, that's even better because it will be just as smart as you. Are you going deny me this opportunity to father a child with you and make a life with you? Rupert reached up and pulled Matt close to him they kissed; just be gentle it's my first time. The next three hours they had sex in every possible position; on the bed, on the chair, on the table and on the floor. There was no doubt as much semen that Matt put into Rupert's body, there was no way that there wasn't a baby the way. Rupert laid his head on Matt's chest as they laid beside each other. I've always been told your first love and the first time you have sex should be one in the same, that way you will never forget either one. I'm going to be so sore tomorrow; it's going to be hard to walk, much less sit down. Dr. Smithers is going know what happened to us and I suspect that Caleb mght too. Matt smiled and kissed Rupert's lips, I could care less what they think, it's only about me, you and this baby now. We've got the rest the week to deal with and then we're back at the Z1 forever. When we get there you're not going back to your little room, you're moving in with me. And we're going on with our lives, if they don't like it, I don't care. The two held each other and went to sleep. The next morning things progressed as normal, on the side Ron approached Rupert. I see that you got that little problem taken care of last night, I suppose it was Dr. Matt that did it. Rupert was caught off guard by Dr. Smithers presumption. I don't know what you're talking about Doc I'm doing fine. Oh yeah, you're doing fine and nine months from now there is going be a little Matt running around the house. Just take it easy for the first few days and your work schedules are going to be just fine. I want you to sit in on a special surgery that I've got this afternoon, it's a senator we're going to have to do a heart valve replacement and maybe a couple other touchups on the heart. It's a very complex surgery and the outcome doesn't look good for him so I'll need you as my set of eyes to back me up. Okay Dr. Smithers I won't let you down, I'll do my very best to help you with the surgery this afternoon Sir. The day went off without much of a hitch, when it was lunch time Caleb sat with Rupert and Dr. Matt. Whatever was wrong with you for last couple of days seems to have corrected itself Rupert. I'm glad that you're feeling better and especially glad that you got me a seat in the gallery so I can watch you assist Dr. Smithers with the surgery of the senator. Me too I'm glad I'm feeling better because this is a very important surgical procedure, the Senators life might be on the line if we don't do everything, we can for him. Don't worry about it, Rupert I'm sure that you will be fine assisting Dr. Smithers and as far as you Caleb pay attention this time, you can learn a lot you're very good at being a doctor but there's still a lot more to do. You have to find the right program that will accept you so that you can learn and grow your career, retorted Matt. Honestly, I don't care what program accepts me as long as I get accepted into some kind of program to prove to my father that I am a Dr. I'm not a lawyer I'm not a corporate executive I am a Dr. first and foremost. I want to make a difference in people's lives by saving them. Matt thought about it for a minute, he knew the perfect program for the future Dr. Caleb Allen. That outreach clinic in the Township would need a smart individual to help head it up. Dr. Smithers stopped by the table, you two young men pay strict attention to everything that is going on in that surgical Suite Caleb you from upstairs and Rupert I want your eyes on the patient at all times I want you monitoring him with your special eyes for any abnormalities. Yes or Dr. Smithers you can count on us, I will be on the lookout for any indifference in him during the surgical procedure. Ron Smithers left the staff dining hall and headed to Sen. Ralph Moreself's room for a last consultation with him and his wife Phyllis. Dr. Smithers knocked on the door and it was opened by Mrs. Moreself. Come on and Dr. we've been waiting, Ralph is a little bit nervous but that's quite understandable we know the chances that he's taking but it has to be done or he will have a chance at all. Dr. Smithers walked in and spoke to the patient and his wife. Ralph I'm not going to lie to you this is going be a tricky surgical procedure at best. I can give you the chances and percentages or I just tell you, the cards are stacked against you, you're out of shape and your overall health is horrible. But if you make it through it you have to change you have to scale back you change your complete diet, no more smoking, no more booze and get rid of some of the stress. Ron how long have we been friends? You know what my life is like if it wasn't for Phyllis here, I wouldn't be here today I wish that we could've had children but hey it wasn't in the cards. You do the best you can and I'll see you when I wake up if not, I'll see you on the other side. Ron laughed; don't think you can get rid of me that easy, you still have a lot of legislation to do to make things equal for everyone on the planet and I'm going to hold you to that. In fact, I have an exceptional young man that is studying every detail of your history. And what I mean by exceptional is he has a photographic memory anything he hears anything he sees or reads he retains it in his mind and can recall it at any time. He also has a genetic gift that allows his eyes to see things that others cannot. He can see differences in muscle tone and muscle structure muscle coloration blood flow and everything within the body should it be opened. And I'll let you know right now he's not human he's not a hybrid he is a very gifted pure blood that has had me paid everything I've thrown at him every kind of hypothetical disease and are procedure with any complications he has met, matched and defeated me, his name is Rupert and he is quite the gift to any surgical team. Ralph thought about it; I tell you what when you get through with me and I start recovering I want to bring this young man to us and introduce him to Phyllis and me I want to see this amazing young man for myself but first get me going. You got a deal, now the nurses will be coming here to prep you for the surgical procedure and to take you down to the OR waiting Phyllis can be in the gallery with a couple of our other physicians who will be setting in on the procedure also. Ron said goodbye to his friend and left. At 1 PM Ron Smithers walked into the scrub room just to find Rupert had already beat him there and was scrubbing up. Damn the kid is punctual, I like that in a medical professional too damn bad they wouldn't let them in the medical school, he could show all them no good pompous assed professors a thing or two. The light went off and the operating theater was ready, patient was already sound asleep and they were ready to walk in and begin the procedure. Ron went about prep in the area and asked Rupert would he like to make the initial incision, Rupert was blown away and honored, but he thought better of it and told Dr. Smithers that it was his patient and it was his place to make the first incision but he thanked him for the offer. Ron smiled under his mask and remarked; you've got more skill more tack and more common sense than most of the seasoned doctors here at this hospital. Ron started the procedure, Rupert watched Dr. Smithers open the chest of his patient and put the patient on the heart-lung bypass machine, he went about clearing everything out of the way and getting down to the heart as the heartbeat slowed Rupert noticed a discoloration in the heart muscle and on the artery where the valve was to be replaced. Excuse me Dr. Smithers, does the patient at this time have a viral or bacterial infection of any kind showing up on any blood workup? Ron looked at the nurse who grabbed the chart she looked at it and shook her head no. Rupert what are you seeing that I can't see and do we need a spectrograph scanner here in the OR. I'm noticing a discoloration in the side wall of the heart leading down to the bottom all the way up to the Arctic valve and part of the artery go into it the discoloration indicates there is a viral infection inside of the heart that is involving the valve the artery and the muscle. I fear that if you cut into them the virus will spread rapidly. Ron went into overdrive grabbed a prep swab and rubbed the outside of the heart muscle always up around the valve and artery. It was sent out to pathology for emergency confirmation. Within minutes the intercom system came on from the lab, Dr. Smithers the sample you sent us was positive for a viral load of infected material. We don't have what it takes to get rid of this anywhere around. You might want closure patient up. Rupert started thinking in overdrive, Dr. Smithers I need access to the lab and some specialized chemicals and 30 minutes to make a prep to save this man's life. Ron was a little iffy about Rupert's ability and asked him what did he need. I need some RX 4782, AR 7335, 1355B and another compound which is only available to Genmen in a certain state of body function and I must make a common pound to be spun down. Part of it has to be put in a drench and drizzled over the heart itself, the next part must be injected directly into the heart muscle and the final portion must be put into 1 pint of specialized Pure Genmen blood and given to the patient. There won't be any aftereffects that will harm him it might change him a little bit for six months but it will never harm him it'll only make them stronger and heal faster. I'll need Caleb to help me in the laboratory and I need prying eyes away because the final ingredient is our secret it belongs to Genmen and Genman only and I cannot release it to anyone. Dr. Ron Smithers looked up in the gallery to Phyllis Moreself, she nodded her approval. Go young man you're on the clock, you got 30 minutes be back. Rupert waved at Caleb and motioned for him to head for the doorway, as Rupert left the OR he pulled off his gown and protective gear and left the suite. Upon arrival to laboratory 47B, all the items that he asked for were waiting for him on a cart. He picked up the IV bag and tubing along with a needle and handed it to Caleb, stick that in my arm and take out 1 pint of fresh blood don't worry about sterilization or anything else I'm fine. Caleb was a little bit shaky but had no problem finding Rupert's vein and started the blood flow into the bag it was just a couple of minutes and the bag was full. Caleb close off the valve and help pressure as he removed the needle from Rupert's arm, he placed an alcohol laced piece of cotton and taped it down. Rupert instructed Caleb to take the tubing that contained the leftover blood and place it in a Vacutainer for they could use it to make the inoculation and the swapping potion. Caleb was amazed at the speed in which Rupert worked, he couldn't believe that one person could do so much so fast. In exactly 21 minutes the swab on potion and direct injection along with the laced blood product was ready to be carried back to the OR. Rupert looked at Caleb and thanked him for all of his assistance in making the solution to help the senator and kill the virus that was attacking his heart. Upon arrival at the OR suite Rupert recount and sterilize himself once again. He entered the OR suite where everyone was waiting, he handed the blood compound to the tech and told him to hang it and get ready to place it into the patient's body when he was told. He handed the swapping potion to Dr. Smithers and told him to apply the entire amount to the patient's heart wall and muscle in certain areas as he pointed them out. Ron Smithers felt more like the student then the teacher, he did exactly as he was instructed by Rupert and even without his special vision, he could tell the difference in the wall muscle coloration and also around the artery. Rupert asked for 4 - 3 cc syringes and 26ga x 1" needles. One by one he filled them with the blood compound from the Vacutainer. He pointed out to Dr. Smithers every position where he needed to inject the compound. He nodded to the tech and told him to open the blood wide open and to get the patient off the bypass machine. A step-by-step was done Ron Smithers could see the difference in his patient's heart and in the way it beat. Gone was the atrial fluttering from the valve that was severely damaged, the color of the patient was also improving along with the color of the heart muscle. Rupert looked at Dr. Smithers; you can close them up he's going to be fine sir we don't need to go any further with this surgery he needs to be kept strictly alone for the next 48 hours only his wife one nurse that you trust from each shift you and myself are the only doctors that he should be seen by. The next 48 hours will tell us if he's to make a complete recovery, I don't have any doubt but we need to put all questioning minds to rest. Ron couldn't help but look at the stats on the machines and realize this was not the same patient that he had sliced open an hour ago. His blood pressure was better, his heartbeat was better, and his overall coloration was drastically improved. After everything was said and done in the center was sent to a new secure room along with his wife Ron approached Rupert. Young man I don't know what that compound is that you made up that you just saved a man's life, and this isn't just any man. We need to monitor and like you said and overnight I'll be watching him but first I want you to go get scrubbed and cleaned up we've had a rough day and you are my guest at my home for supper and you can bring Matt along with you if you want to but that's your choice. Rupert smiled and thanked him and asked what time they should arrive. Make it about 7 PM here's my address one of the shuttle drivers here will bring you there just tell to bring you to my address. Caleb was wound up tighter than it two-dollar watch. He knew he was not allowed to speak to anyone about what took place in the laboratory but after seeing the patient's stats in prove like he did whatever the special compound was that Rupert gave the man he was a lifesaver. Matt was waiting on Rupert to get cleaned up from the OR in the staff dining hall along with Caleb. Matt wasn't thinking at all when Rupert set down and he leaned over and kissed him directly on the lips in front of Caleb. A slightly shocked Caleb looked at the two and realized there was more to this story than met the eyes. Rupert looked over at Caleb; would you please not repeat to anyone what you just witnessed. Yes, we are now a couple we haven't been for this trip and it just happened. Caleb blushed; dude you don't have to worry about me repeating anything to anyone about what I've seen, today I witnessed a miracle take place. The formula that you mixed up and I don't know what that special ingredient was and I don't want to know that is your secret is a Genman but you are exceptional and I can definitely see why Matt thinks so much about you. As they set there at the table sipping on coffee several of the faculty from the hospital and a lot of interns and residents came by to congratulate Rupert on his exceptional work at any time that he needed any kind of help, just call on them and they would be more than happy to assist him in any way that they could. Rupert thanked everyone and told everybody he was getting a little bit tired after the day he had and he still had a supper invite to attend to he would see them all in the morning though bright and early. Matt looked at Rupert; so, when we you tell me about an invite for supper and to where? Let's go to the hotel and I'll tell you about it, I first need a good hot shower by myself. Hey okay not a problem you can have your hot shower by yourself and I'll wait on mine. Caleb said his goodbye to the couple and told Rupert that he would see them in the morning. On the ride over to Dr. Smithers home Rupert told Matt that everything between them need to be on the QT because he didn't know exactly what Smithers had told his family or spouse. The two stood side-by-side and Matt pushed the doorbell the door was abruptly yanked open and a nice-looking young man from inside this house replied; yeah what you want. No sooner than it was out of his mouth a large hand come flying by his ear and popped him upside his head. Howie Smithers you apologize to our company and invite them into this house young man and then go to the kitchen see if you can be of any help in there. But father I told you I want to go out tonight this is your dinner party not mine. Once again, the hand slapped his head and he was told to leave the room and go to the kitchen before his head got there first. Ron greeted the two and smiled; sorry about the oldest you know teenagers they think they know what all and they can do everything without any parental supervision no matter who's paying the bills. Upon entering the townhouse there were two young boys sitting in the living room area watching TV. Ron smiled; these two here are a little bit more reserve at this point in time the one on left he's older these are middle son John Jon and the youngest is Peter. The better half is in the kitchen cooking and will be out here in a minute now that the oldest son has been exiled to the kitchen to help. Would you like a glass of Coolwater we have a fresh iced carafe of it? The mention of Coolwater brought the two younger boys out from their daze of watching the television. They headed to their father and asked if they could also have a small glass since it was special occasion. Ron replied sure; just go to the kitchen and tell your older brother that I said to give you a small glass each before supper and if he has a problem with it, he knows what'll happen to his head. Rupert felt that something was a little amiss here in this household, why in the world would Dr. Smithers have Coolwater in his home much less know about it. That's only for genman and not many knew how to make it. Matt's mouth almost fell to the ground when a gorgeous and I mean drop dead gorgeous man walked out the kitchen carrying a tray with four classes on it. He set the tray on the coffee table and stood up held out his hand and introduced himself. My name is Richard Smithers I see that you've met my husband at the hospital, me I keep out of sight so that we don't have any problem with the neighbors. Rupert reached over and lifted Matt's chin, keep on you going to get flies in your mouth. Ron couldn't help himself and busted out laughing, you two were something else. You're not the only ones that have secrets. Richard used to work as an orderly because that's the only thing he could get a job at due to no education even though he smarter than 90% of the people at that place. We met we talked and we fell in love and we have three wonderful boys. The oldest one Howie recently went through transition and is showing his oats every chance, he gets. It gets him into a lot of trouble. Rupert looked at Ron Smithers, so that's how you knew this morning? Personal experience at it Sir? Ron chuckled; that and there's a little bit of afterglow still going on this morning when you arrived only a well-bred genman has that look. Howie returned to the living room with his head down, Sir I would like to apologize to your company for acting the way that I did I know that I should be more respectful in my parents' home to my parents' company. But I really need to try to find him Sir, I don't have a lot of time left before I hit my three-month cycle and if I miss that when I have to wait until I finish my six-month cycle, please Sir cannot go look tonight since you've got company. Richie looked at his son; no, you may not go outside not tonight there's been too many problems here lately and I don't want to get a call from some hospital or emergency clinic that you've been beat up or just have you disappear like some of the other young hybrid Genman have. Howie looked dejected but he understood his parents were only doing it for his best interest. Rupert took a little interest in to the young man and asked exactly who was he looking for if he might. Howie took a seat on the sofa beside him, I'm looking for the love of my life. I know it might seem weird or even strange to some people but I have had dreams of him ever since I turned 12 human years, I've even made sketches and even painted a picture of him. I know his name I can tell you how tall he is I can tell you what color his eyes are what color his hair is all the way down to the size 16 boot; I just can't locate him in the city. Would you like to see my sketchbook? Sure, go get it and bring it to us and let us look at it I've been several places and Matts went out several times on the outreach program and he's met a bunch of Genmen and other residents of different ranches. You didn't have to ask Howie twice he was off the couch and run into his room. He came back with a book and when he opened it there was no doubt who the person in this sketch was. Rupert showed it to Matt who also smiled. So, Howie what do you want to know about Oleg Yorgason. It was Howie's turn to stand there with an open mouth, how did you know his name I've never told a living soul his name I just dream about him night after night after night. Matt cleared his throat; well it's like this the other day I had a visit from one of our residents that lives on the Z1 it seems that he has been having trouble sleeping because someone keeps on entering his dreams and won't let him sleep, they keep on beckoning him to come to them. And you're right about the size 16 boot, your sketch is a dead ringer for Oleg, but first you need to know he's not a genman. He is one of the humans that has moved out to the Z1 to assist with the construction of zone2 and other areas. In return he can pick a mate from any of the available Genmen or hybrids that will have him and it's not that there haven't been lookers because several have offered but he's turned them all down because he's waiting on his forever. Richard took a deep breath; well that's one thing solved I really thought my son had lost his mind. His transition was rough on him and it intensified his longing for his mate even more. When he was 12, we thought it was him being cute and having imaginary friends and everything else but as he progressed, he started painting and drawing and sketching this mystery man, his mystery mate I got worried. He would sneak out at times and try to find him going to different places all over the city. I pulled him out of several scrapes he got himself into, he was jeopardizing the other boys, safety here over his obsession with this Oleg, now I know it's not just his imagination. The dinner was a very nice meal and all Howie could do was ask every possible concealable question about Oleg. Matt and Rupert did their very best to tell him everything that they knew about him. Matt looked Howie directly in the eyes and told him flat out, if he's going to be your first you better know one thing you need plenty of lube and he is going to stretch you wide he is going to go deep in fact if he gets on top of you with your legs outstretched you're going be sore for several days because he's not a little guy at 6 foot 10 and 325 pounds he's going to spread you wide but that's up to you after you see him. The adults set around the table and discussed the upcoming problem with getting Howie out to the Z-1 without alerting anyone to who he actually was. Rupert looked at Matt and remarked; that's not a problem he can go as Howie Smith and he's just catching a ride out there with us since he's never been away from home before. You know his parents wanted to make sure that he was looked after until he reached the final destination. Matt brought up the idea that the Smithers might be interested in phase 2 and the good doctor could commute back and forth on the transit system since the Z1 has their own transit, it would be a whole lot easier to raise the little ones in an atmosphere that was friendly toward hybrids Genmen and their human mates plus if Howie gets pregnant he can always have his dad around to help him when the time comes for the baby's arrival. Ron and Richard were both very interested in the chance to get their family out of the city and out of harm's way. Matt asked Dr. Smithers if anyone else at the hospital management ownership or anybody knew about his situation and family life. Absolutely not responded Ron; we have kept this under the radar because I cannot afford to lose my job at the hospital no matter how friendly they say they are I still don't always trust other humans that are not in the same situation as I am and my family. Rupert smiled and replied; just to let you know you have more friends at that hospital than you think. Carter Hawthorne is pure blood and he's married to Ed; Dr. Wooten also has a Genman mate and they have now two children at the Z1 so believe me when I tell you. You are surrounded by Friendly's why do you think I was allowed to show up yes, I am exceptional in my gifted abilities even as a genman but they want to get us involved into the community to break the stereotyping. Ron and Richard were totally blown away neither one of them had any idea that there were so many mixed couples and the owners of the hospital were mixed. Ron thought they were just gay because the way Carter acted. Richard was all ears when he heard about the museum the library and the new learning center at the Z1 and how it was open to everyone so that they could learn about Genmen lives in history. Not the government side the true history of the genman race and how they came to be. Ron looked at his watch and told Richard that he needed to get going to the hospital to check on the senator and invited Rupert and Matt along. They had no problem agreeing to seeing Sen. Moreself. After arriving at the hospital Ron pulled the chart and they all went to go see the patient. What shocked Ron the most was here was a patient of his that just had his chest cracked open and had surgery done not 8 hours ago and he was setting up in the bed eating a meal. Ralph smiled when he seen his old friend walk in and was doubly happy to see Rupert along for the visit. Young man I don't know what kind of miracle worker you are but I can tell you I feel better than I felt in 20 years and what's even shocking to me is my scar for you opened it me up has almost healed itself what in the hell did you do to me. Rupert walked over picked up the glass of water and reached into his pocket and pulled out a little bottle with an eyedropper he put five drops into the glass and stirred it by the straw. Doctor's orders are you were to drink this I will come by three times a day and make you a glass and you have to drink all of it don't worry about what it is it's my own mixture it will help you speed in your recovery even faster and as far as your scar is concerned hopefully within a week to two it won't even be there. Everything that you were gifted today is thanks to Genmen technology and Genmen knowledge. That I will warn you I had to give you one pint of Genmen blood which is mixed in with your blood in your body to help heal it. Your valve was damaged yes due to a virus that you had inside of your heart that was eating away the heart wall muscle along with the atrial valve and the artery leading to your heart valve. The serum that I made it I gave to you was a three-part process, one part was a direct injection to the infected area, the second part was a coated drench in which your heart was bathed in along with your artery, and the last part was mixed into the blood that was given to you. It wasn't ordinary Genmen blood, it was an exceptional type and quality of blood. I do need to tell you there are a few differences in you genetically right now, the blood will eventually lose its potency in approximately 6 months when your body is totally healed. You should refrain from unprotected sex with your wife unless you are willing to raise a child who could possibly end up being a hybrid. Because there's about a 90% chance of that happening should she conceive a child. Ralph chuckled; I hate to bust your bubble, I've never had children because I haven't been able to have children, we would've loved to have had children together but with my sperm count I just could not produce them. Oh there's no bubble to burst senator, I will guarantee you that if you and your wife have unprotected sex the result will be in nine months a birth of a child and there's a 90% chance that it will be a hybrid child of you and your wife because as long as the antibodies from my serum throughout the blood are floating through your body you will pick up genetic coding and produce a hybrid child. I pulled back an extremely old process that was reserved for royalty only, so that they could live longer. This will not be repeated, and this was a one-time shot deal, so do what you want to with it but I have given you a second chance in life, so don't waste it please. Phyllis spoke up; young man if you could have anything in the world what would it be? Madam; my plight would be to have marriages recognized between humans and their Genmen or hybrid partners and their offspring be recognized as equals. As it stands now if a human gets together with a hybrid or a genman and they produce a child, the child has no rights to anything that his father has, if there's a falling out and he leaves his mate the Genman is left destitute and the child is left without a name, without any rights, without any future. And what makes it even worse if a Genman's human mate parishes for any reason he is not eligible for anything or if they have children their children are denied everything that belonged to their father. I want equal protection for all. Phyllis listened to Rupert's plight with great interest. Here was the person that saved her husband's life and he wanted nothing, he wanted no glory, he just wanted everyone else protected. Well young man I'm going to do a lot of researching and I can guarantee you I have a lot of pull with the senator and you might never believe in your wildest dreams of what I can pull off. Rupert thanked the senator's wife and told her that he would see her in the morning with her husband's drink, for them both to get rest and to have a good night but he also warned the senator not to overdo it, doctor's orders. Ron bid the two good night and he would see them first thing in the morning at 8 AM and for the two to get under good night's rest he was headed home. After the three left the room leaving the senator and his wife in there alone, they began to talk, and they both agreed something had to be done, a bill need to be written in a law need to be passed to help protect the less fortunate. Matt and Rupert settled in bed for the night, Matt snuggled up behind Rupert and wrapped his arms around him holding him tight. I would just like to tell you how very proud I am of you and everything that you did today. It was for every Genmen and hybrid there is on this planet and to ask for something for someone else and not yourself, it proves just how amazing you really are. Matt; it wasn't that big of a deal so I used an old formula that was used by the Royals for years, nobody knows it, it's forgotten I stumbled upon it after doing all my research. And as far as what I asked the senator in one ear out the other, politicians are all alike, they appreciate you for the moment but forget you in the long run. Rupert don't be so sure; you struck a chord with the senator's wife; Let's just sit back and not tell anyone and see what happens.
