Date: Wed, 2 Dec 2020 04:58:37 +0000 (UTC) From: cgf2662 Subject: The Z-1 Ranch P-43 The Z-1 Ranch P-43 CGW© It was another normal morning and it found Matt and Rupert setting at the table together and they were joined by Caleb. Wow Rupert yesterday was amazing, I can't believe that you could see that there was an indifference in his heart wall. It was a massive viral infection that was totally unnoticed by every test that had been done on his blood workup. While we were gone, they did a spectral analysis on the area of the heart that you told them there was an infection. When the results came back there was no denying and you are as good as you say you are and everybody now knows it. You are the talk of the hospital, and I am honored to call you my mentor. I was so keyed up that I called my parents and explain to my dad what went on about the operation you finding something that test could not find out how amazed I was and proud to have been allowed to back you up, let's just say my parents were less than enthusiastic about it, and that's okay it's their loss not mine because I was there and I was part of it. Rupert thanked Caleb for his flattery but reminded him to keep his eye on the prize, don't sell yourself short you are equally amazing in your own right as a medical professional and soon to be Dr. Matt listened to the two chatter all about the procedure when he noticed Dr. Smithers walking up to them. Ron smiled and cleared his throat; well my two young protégé's are you two ready to go see the patient that y'all help save together. Because it took the two of you to make the compounded formula so I feel that it's only right that the two you meet the patient face-to-face for your congratulatory honors. Caleb was blown away that he was even going to be included in anything since essentially it was Rupert that made the formulation with his fantastic mind. Both of the young men thanked Dr. Smithers and stood up to leave the table leaving Matt behind. Ron looked back at Rupert and asked; you feeling a bit better today sense you were a little bit off your game yesterday. Yes, Sir responded Rupert; I'm doing just fine and I'm back to tip top shape. Is Ron pass by the nurse's station the head nurse handed him Sen. Moreself's chart, they walked into the room to find his wife combing his hair and he was setting on the side of the bed. No; you don't Ralph, you get your butt right back in that bed and don't even think about getting up for two more days. But come on Ron I feel great I feel better not felt in 30+ years I feel like I'm that 15-year-old kid that I was when we met for the first time. You may feel it but you just had major surgery yesterday and you are still getting used to the formula that was introduced into your bloodstream yesterday also, you get your ass back in bed. Phyllis just chuckled and hugged Ron's neck, I don't know how I can think you and these other two young gentleman for saving my Ralph's life. But I'll find a way you can bet on that one. Rupert when you have time today, I would like for you to stop by that way the three of us can speak a little bit more about things that are to come. And I believe your name is Caleb Allen and you are practicing to become a doctor much to your family's dismay. Your father Ezra Allen is a corporate bigwig and he doesn't agree with your dreams he wants you to live his for him. But let me tell you one thing young man never ever give up your dreams to become something that someone else wishes you to be you're going to be a wonderful doctor it may take a little bit longer to learn everything that you need too, you have some great teachers so follow your dreams. Caleb's confidence was boosted by the senator's wife and her pleasant speech of confidence within him. He thanked her for her kind words. Ron step back and told Rupert and Caleb to examine the patient and give him their analysis of his condition of recovery. Ralph unbuttoned his shirt to reveal only a faint red stripe were his incision had been, Caleb could not believe that the healing process was that complete already. Rupert gave his assessment in a verbal analysis to Dr. Smithers about the patient, Caleb was a little bit more colorful and his version of the miraculous recovery that the patient had experience so far. Dr. Ron Smithers concurred with the two young interns and concluded that within two days as long as Ralph would obey some very basic rules, he could go home for a two-week recovery after the two weeks he would return to the clinic for a checkup then he could be released back to full duty provided he followed the rules. Phyllis was very delighted in her husband's prognosis and thanked the three of them again. Dr. Smithers and the two young interns left the room and were walking down the hallway, Caleb you have a job offer, I'm sorry to say there's only been one job offer but if you're interested, we can sit and talk about it. Rupert you know the deal that we made, when you're through here you go back to the Z1 and continue helping out there because I can tell you right now there has been a lot of interest in you but a deal was a deal. Caleb was a little confused but he graciously accepted any chance he could get for a job and told Dr. Smithers as much. Mr. Allen; before you accept there are some terms that you need to be aware of and special things to consider up on your assignment this is a job offer that you will finish up the residency at and then you will become a full staff member and run an outpost clinic in a small community then you will double back and do a part-time outreach program to areas that have no physicians available and basically little to no medical program, you will carry everything with you that you need for basic care. Dr. Smithers I don't care if the outpost is at the wormhole gate, I'll do it. Well young man if you think this is exactly what you want to accept it let me know right now and I can tell you what it pertains. Yes, sir Dr. Smithers I will take whatever I am offered no matter what as long as I am allowed to help them medically. Very well Mr. Allen there is a brand-new clinic being built in a community in the Western region it should be finished within two months until then you will work at the compound clinic located on the Z1 ranch, room and board will be provided along with a nice salary when the new clinic opens, you and Dr. Stirling will be occupying it. One day a week you will travel within a two-hour radius to visit different ranches that are under the umbrella of the Z1 to treat any and all medical necessities from scraped knees, broken fingers, broken legs, broken arms to births. So, the two months that you spend at the Z1 clinic will help you get used to being around Genmen and hybrids, at the outpost clinic in the Township you will see humans, hybrids and Genmen. And never fear Rupert will be there and while you're at the Z1 he will still be your mentor teaching you everything that you can possibly learn about other species that occupy this planet. Caleb was full of pride and thanked Dr. Smithers profusely, even though it was unprofessional he turned to Rupert and hugged him as hard as he dared, and thanked him for everything that he had learned under him so far and that there was so much more he needed to learn to be the best possible doctor that he could be. It might've been little too tight that Caleb hugged and embraced Rupert because when they broke loose, they both had wet spots where the nectar contained in Rupert's engorged glands leaked. Caleb just busted out laughing, well it looks like I've been branded and it couldn't happen from a nicer guy. Rupert was a little embarrassed that he had leaked, but he couldn't help it his glands engorged themselves rapidly. Normally I would've had protection on but I didn't know you're going to hug me like that, this doesn't always happen but in special cases during the early time a Genmen's glands tend to fill up quickly. Caleb's mouth fell open he just realized what Rupert said; dude are you carrying right now? I didn't hurt you when I hugged you like I did? Yes, Caleb I am carrying at this time, I've conceived recently and no you did not hurt me nor the child, Genmen aren't that fragile. But just be mindful of the top section because too much pressure and yes, we will leak. Caleb was almost beside himself; you mean the father let you travel and let you do all this in the state you're in right now. Yes, I traveled and the father knows exactly what state I'm in and he is watching me closely in fact he watches me 24 hours a day if you must know it, he is thrilled to become a father. Caleb was thoroughly confused, what does the father think about you and Matt having to share the same bed while you're here since they screwed up your room. My dear Caleb; Matt is just fine with my condition and in fact he watches over me 24 hours a day if you must know and as far as me being pregnant, he's delighted. We didn't plan it, it just happened like a lot of pregnancies with Genmen and hybrids happen. You mean you and Matt, I mean Dr. Stirling are an item and that's his baby you are carrying, oh my gosh talk about being dense I should've realized it. Especially the last few days the way he has been very fussy over you. It's okay Caleb, this is new to myself and Matt. We're both first-time parents and I have no doubt that we will have our rough patches throughout the pregnancy but I can guarantee that I will get top-notch medical care. But just don't let on to anyone else, Dr. Smithers knows and now you know, we would like to keep it that quiet please. Not another word will be said; and you don't have to worry about me treating you differently and giving your secret away. The day was very busy, Caleb and Rupert saw patients in the general clinics that morning under the supervision of Dr. Smithers. Ron was doing great until he got a phone call that upset him. Guys, come here for second let's talk, I have a personal matter to attend and it will take me away from the hospital for a little while so go ahead and continue as you are one of the other staff members will oversee the both of you just keep on doing what you're doing and you'll be fine. Ron Smithers was boiling by the time he arrived at his home. He entered the home and found Richard sitting on the sofa with his head in his hands crying. Where is he at, I am through with his constant rebellion, there is no reason for you to be upset at this time of your life and he is damn well going to find out just how pissed I am. Ron please take a deep breath and steadied yourself before you talk to him, I went off on him, I said a lot and for the first time in my life I struck one of my children. Ron walked into his son's room; Howie stood up to his father, he had no right to stop me I'm an adult now and I'll go where I damned well please and can't no one tell me any different. Howie suddenly found himself thrown across the room and on the bed within milliseconds Ron was sitting on top of him had his leather belt off and was whipping him. Howie started to cry and scream that it was hurting him to please stop, but Ron was not going to slow down anytime soon. When Ron was finished whipping his son's butt, he dumped them off on the floor and stood up. Now that outside is just as hot to read is the inside. When you have found your civilized tongue and think you can speak like an adult and not act like a spoiled brat child you bring your ass to the living room and apologize to your dad. He's having a hard-enough time without you making it worse, having to even notice that he's moving a little bit slower this time around. Between all the stress that you are given him and still working this is his hardest pregnancy yet. Ron stormed out of the room and slammed the door shut. Ron had Richard lay down and propped his feet up, and he laid a light blanket over top of his love. Just lay here and take it easy your blood pressures up again and I don't really know why it should be up other than we have a young adult here that wants to challenge every move we tried to make to protect him. We need to send him to the Z1 so that he can be around others much like himself. We can go out and visit after he's been there for a little bit, and who knows it might help him. Zach Spinelli will put his butt to work that's for sure he won't be laying around doing nothing his ass will be working. Richard had to agree with Ron, their oldest needed to leave and knowing what they did about the Z1 and what might await him there it would be the best thing for everyone involved. Maybe after the newest baby arrived, they could go out and visit and see how everything was going. Howie came out of his room, limping and caring the belt back to his father. Through his sniveling and the tears, he apologized to his parents for all that he had caused them. He promised that he would not try to leave again, and he would obey their house rules out of respect. Ron looked at his oldest, Howie my son at weeks end on Thursday have you a suitcase or two packed with what you think you need to survive with and you are traveling back with Dr. Stirling and Rupert to the Z1. You will be living there from now on that will be your new home, you will be under the charge of the owner Mr. Zachary Spinelli commonly called Mr. Zack. You will do what he tells you to when he tells you to and you will not give him any problems or he has ways of taking care of it. Your dad and I will get weekly reports on you and your activities so try not to embarrass yourself. When your dad is feeling better, we will bring the boys out we will visit you when Mr. Zack tells us that we can. This is the best we can do for you; you cannot continue to go out into the city and keep searching for anyone because this place is getting too dangerous for individuals like you, your brothers and your dad. Dr. Sterling and Rupert will be here for supper and they will have a guest with them also an intern by the name of Caleb Allen and try to control yourself because he's off-limits and he's human. Darling; Romano's will deliver and set up the meal for tonight. It's sort of a special occasion is not every day that your oldest leaves the nest and goes to live his life amongst others of his kind. Howie was at a loss for words, he didn't know what to think about his father's decree that he was to be sent away from his family. He hung his head low and walked to his room to pack his bags. Ron kissed his mate goodbye and told him to take it easy, he would be back at five and their guests would be there at 6:30. Richard gently rolled on his side and places hand on his belly where their fourth child was now. He quietly cried knowing that even though Howie their oldest would be in good hands at the Z1 under the care of Mr. Zack, but it still hurt having to send when you're own away for their own good. Ron reappeared at the hospital like nothing had gone on. When Rupert caught up with him and asked if all was okay? It's all okay Rupert but just let you know tonight there's can be a special meal because you have two days left, I have decided to invite you, Matt and young Caleb over for supper at our home. There are a few things that I need to discuss with you and Matt about your travel back and an additional passenger headed to the Z1 who will be in your care and tell you had him off to Mr. Zach. The invite had a puzzled Rupert but hey whatever he didn't turn down a free meal especially since he was carrying, he was hungry all the time. Ron was walking with the two young med student interns when who none other than Carter Hawthorne came walking up to them from the other end of the corridor. Well Dr. Smithers I hear congratulatory honors are entitled to you and these two young brilliant interns. You are the talk of the town, I don't know all the details and there are a lot of things that are still sketchy at best, but saving a Senators life here at Hawthorne Memorial Hospital will go a long way within the medical careers of you all. Ron introduced Rupert and Caleb to Carter Hawthorne; I will tell you sir without these two brilliant young men and the work that they did helping the senator it would not of came out the way it did. Carter looked over at Caleb and remarked; young Caleb Allen you are a credit to your profession even though you do not have the approval of your family for becoming a prestigious doctor like you will. I will tell you never give up on your dreams and never ever let someone else tell you that you are not good enough to be who you are because if they do not have the respect for you and what you're trying to do with your life then they don't deserve you within there's is their loss not yours. Young Rupert Spinelli, I hear we are to expect big things from you at the Z1. And your friend Dr. Stirling I understand is staying on at the Z1 for an extended tour and will be one of two doctors heading up the new clinic in the Township the other being right here amongst us Mr. Allen. And oh; by the way congratulations on the little one that you carry. Being a parent is the most rewarding job you will ever have and I feel that the two of you will be just fine. Rupert looked at Carter and asked him in a hushed tone; Sir and you find out about it? Really Rupert; a pure blood can smell another pregnant pure blood two mile away and I would say you are definitely pregnant, from what I can smell, Dr. Stirling is the father of the child that you carry. But don't worry I won't give it away and I won't tell anyone, that's a job for the parents of the child to be to announce. Caleb stood there with his mouth open again after he heard Carter Hawthorne admitting that he was a pure blood genman. Carter chuckled and looked at Caleb; honey you didn't think all this here was human did you, a human built like me or as slinky as me? Make no mistake, I am proud of who I am and proud of what I am. My husband and I are the parents of three beautiful children a pair twins born to us by his Surrogate and one of our own after 10 years of trying. Hopefully we'll have more, if not I'll raise what I've been blessed with and be damned proud of being a dad of a hybrid child. Just to let you to young men know and you can tell Dr. Stirling when you see him tonight, I have arranged for your transport back to the Z1. We are taking my personal sky jumper and you can see the planet from up above, high as the pilot will go so all of you can experience something for the first time. Then we will even do a flyover of the Township and then onto the Z1 and Hawthorne ranch so you can see exactly what we're building out there. Both Rupert and Caleb were left speechless as Carter Hawthorne said his goodbyes and left heading to the children's wing, his most favorite place in the hospital. He was known as Uncle Carter to all of the patients and their families that were provided medical care at Children's Wing of Hawthorne Memorial Hospital. Ron left the boys for a minute to speak to Carter about Howie and his need to go to the Z1 also. Carter just replied the more the merrier and if he gives me any shit, I'll throw him out the window, which brought a chuckle from both. Will boys shall we get on with the rest of our day? We have a few things to wrap up before the final symposium tomorrow afternoon, so let's go check on our favorite patient before we start making the rest of our rounds besides; I believe it's time for his next round of protein drink isn't it Rupert. Yes, Sir and I got the mixture here to add to the glass of ice water for him to drink. Sen. Moreself was sitting in his recliner when they entered and he was going over a few files. Rupert walked up to him close the files and remove them from his reach when he went to object Rupert turned around and politely replied. Those are against doctor's orders when I said stress-free, I meant stress-free, if you can't abide by the rules that have been set down before you then I shall quarantine your room, no one but doctors and nurses will be allowed in here. I don't think that will make your wife happy at all, do you senator? Ralph looked up and knew when he had been defeated and conceded his fate. You're the medical professional in charge I am nothing but the patient and I have to follow rules here to because I don't think all the blustering and fussing that I'll do will make any bit of difference to you because you have my health in my best interest. Phyllis was just walking into the room when Rupert laid down the law. Well it's about time you listen to someone I've been talking myself blue in the face but he wouldn't pay me no mind so I left, I am glad that you are here young Rupert because at least he'll listen to one of us. Rupert smiled at Phyllis; you can always threaten to withhold his protein drinks that I make him because I'm going to leave you the serum with instructions of how to mix them. These will do nobody else any good if they're given in the wrong formulation, I have tailored this batch distinctly for the senator and his body. Phyllis chuckled; you are smart and you think of everything, I like you and I'm glad to have you on the team that is treating my husband because without you I would only be able to have fond memories of him because he'd be dead by now if anyone else but you had been there during his surgery. And I'll guarantee you it may take a little bit but you will definitely be rewarded for what you've done for us. Mrs. Moreself I am only doing my best for a patient that needed my help, nothing more nothing less I don't expect anything at all. Dr. Smithers went over the patient and proclaimed him to be perfectly healthy and he could be discharged the following morning provided he followed every detail of his treatment plan without any deviation and he could come back and in two weeks for a checkup. And only after that checkup can we discuss you going back to work part-time. Ralph thanked everybody himself and looked at Ron Smithers, you're going to hold me to that aren't you, old friend? You better believe it, so get used to it you been given a new lease on life do not blow it Ralph. The three went to go do other rounds and other checkups. Houston was being his usual cantankerous self as of late, when young ones get ready to go through the transition, they get cranky at best. Francis reminded his son that tomorrow afternoon he had a 3 o'clock appointment at the clinic for his pre-transition exam, he had better be there on time or it would be hell to pay with Mr. Z. Dad; I don't know what all this fuss is about, the other boys went through their transition just fine and they didn't have exams why do we have to suddenly start having exams after we come to this place. Because my precious little boy; the other rancher didn't give a damn about us nor you boys because you were hybrids. Here on the Z1 Mr. Zack takes very good care of all of the residents and he wants you to have his exam to make sure that you are okay inside prior to and after your transition. Because you are a hybrid you need to know what kind of mate you can pick for yourself. You get involved with the wrong man and he puts a baby inside of you that you cannot possibly deliver due to the size then you are going to have problems. Mr. Z only wants to prevent this from happening, he suggested that if you are not in a committed relationship by the time your ninth month comes along you can choose one from the breeding program that is suited to your body's needs. If he didn't care about us, he would just let you suffer just like that other evil Bastard Rancher did. I was at birthing's for the genman laid and suffered and screamed as they tried to push out a child that was way too big for their vent, I've seen them have to be stitched closed because of all the tearing that went on because the child was too big for them. I personally am glad that we're here because birthing Phoenix was so easy for me. They took such good care of me here at the clinic and birthing center that this next one is going to be even better. Woah Dad; did you say you're pregnant again, tell me I misheard you. The baby is barely a month old and your already with child again, having father home every night is a little too convenient for you. Houston this is our little secret, your father doesn't even know yet I plan on telling everyone tonight at supper. So, keep your mouth shut or I will keep it shut permanently. I couldn't be prouder to carry a child you'll understand this when it's your time and child grows within your body. When you find someone that's going to be there with you and for you. You will welcome him and his offspring within your body. But the exam that you're having now, it's just to make sure that you don't have any problems accepting a mate when it's time. Houston thought about it and realized that his dad was right, this was only being done for his benefit so it was not a big deal. The doorbell to the Roland home rang and Houston went to answer it; Mr. Zack stood at the doorway and Houston welcomed him inside. Zack set down and told Francis to have a seat along with young Houston he needed to discuss something. Houston offered Mr. Zack some Coolwater to partake if he would like some, Zach graciously accepted. Francis; I need to talk to you and the concerns young Houston here, I'm going to do a new pilot program because I got a special case coming in from the city, I'll need you to discuss it with Lester but first I wanted you in Houston to hear me out. Young Houston; you're getting ready to transition within the next weeks and I need your help. This intrigued Houston so he listened closely to Mr. Zach's proposal. I have a young hybrid who is coming to join us here at the Z1 and he will be put in a home with two other, young Genman hybrids so that he can learn how we live here. I'll let you know right now he has his mate already picked out even though they had never met. But he pulled a stunt that has jeopardized everything, he decided for himself since he learned of the man's location he was going to run off and meet him so that he could be bred as soon as possible and carry the man's child. He's a few weeks post transition and you are a few weeks pre-transition as is the other young hybrid who is coming on fast. he'll only be 17 years old by Earth years as he transitions. You on the other hand you're almost 19 and are right on the spot. That's the reason you need to go for your exam tomorrow. It's very important and you show up the show that you're committed, I'll be by to check on you during the process and will be there during the scan myself. You will be moving out of your parents' house into a bachelor's cottage and the three of you will share it as roommates. You will watch out for each other so that you will not get into trouble you will all work in the same location you will all be together at all times. If there are any dates with young men and prospective suitors. You will chaperone each other during this process plus you will have an overseer who will be my son Tim and his intended Mason. This will be a life building experience for all three of you and just let you know who the third person is it Shane O'Connell, he's been going through the night sweats according to Peggy and the ever-present swollen vent syndrome. According to his mother sometimes it's full up so bad he can't even sit down. I was wondering why he had been around much and why he avoided me when I tried to wave at, I mean it's just a swollen vent it's not like the end of the world you can get messy you just wear a pad. Houston some hybrids such as Shane don't have the advantage that you do. He has a human mother and a third-generation hybrid father so he's not had much influence in the genman portion of his genome. So that means you're going to have to take both of by the hand and help them a lot I'm depending on you to be the levelheaded one. You can count on me Mr. Z I'm ready to do whatever you want me to do. Well tonight I want you and your dad to discuss it with your father and is between you three that you have the ultimate decision since you're going to be transitioning. The new hybrid it's coming in is Howie Smithers he's from the city born and raised his father has kept the family hid out along with his dad in plain sight by switching the children out as they come along, he has two brothers and his dad Richard has just found out is pregnant with number four. They will not come visit him during the process time my rules. What he knows of Genmen his dad taught him at home, so you'll have your work cut out for you. So, Mr. Z is he a pre-Madonna or something. You could say or something, but remember he has to learn. Oh, he'll learn Mr. Z don't worry but I won't be too rough on him I will make him scrub floors on his knees like Cinderfella and I'm the wicked stepbrother. But he'll learn. Zack stood up and said his goodbyes to young Houston and Francis but as he got to the door he turned around and smiled; congratulations Francis I hope this pregnancy is easy for you. Francis stood there with his mouth wide open, he had been to the clinic for confirmation are anything because he knew what was up, he knew he was pregnant. How in the heck did Mr. Z know he was pregnant? Matt, Rupert and Caleb were at the front door of the Smithers home, Caleb rang the Bell. The door was slowly opened by a red eye Howie who invited them in, they noticed as he limped across the living room and gently set down on to the sofa. Caleb was the first one to say something, are you okay young man? Caleb responded; I'll be fine I just had a run in earlier today with my father belt, it was my fault and I deserved it. Ron walked into the room and looked at his son sternly. Boy you got your bags packed up yet. Both bags packed clothing and a few things that I would like to take with me Sir you're welcome to check him and go through them and if anything, you find that I don't need take it out to the trash Sir. Ron looked at his three guest and decided there needed to be an explanation; just let you know young Howie here decided that he couldn't wait to meet his destiny and found the results at the end of my belt today when I left the hospital. He will be accompanying the three of you to the Z1 where he will take up permanent residence. After he settled in and started the program set up by Mr. Spinelli we will come out and visit when we're allowed. Young man what you would like to tell them what you did today to your dad? I got stupid, I smarted off and then I took off I was headed to the transit station to go meet my intended. Dad caught up with me and in the process, I struck him in his face. My dad returned the favor and knocked me on my ass. I've never raised my voice to my parents much less ever a hand and why I did it I still don't know. I've been reassigned in my living accommodations to the Z1, I will have 1 to 2 roommates and they'll watch after me to help keep me out of trouble I have to have a job there on the Z1 that we will all three work at. I'm not allowed to meet my intended along and I must be chaperoned on any outings. But first they tell me I have to have an exam at the clinic to make sure my insides are okay. Rupert looked at the young man; Howie you're being given a great chance here, Mr. Z is a no-nonsense kind of person. He genuinely cares for everyone that lives at the Z1 and will help you out so much if you just let him. As far as the exam goes, we all get one it's either done by Lex or Dr. Wooten. It's a precaution to make sure that your healthy enough when you go through your cycle at your ninth month after transition if you decide to carry you can conceive and carry a healthy child until birth. This also keeps young genman from getting in trouble by choosing a mate or a breeder who is too big for them and birthing their child first will cause them either great pain or injury. I can be there for you if you want me to be there, but I can guarantee you that Mr. Z will be there during the scan portion and he'll go over everything with you about the place. Richard came out of the kitchen with a beautiful roast and set up on the table, Caleb set there with his mouth open once again and just stared at Ron for a minute then look back at Richard. Yes, young man you can close your mouth now that the secret is out, my son is hybrid my mate is a pure blood we have three wonderful children and number four is on the way. I met Richard almost 5 years ago and we waited as long as we could until we had a slight accident and I prevention protocol broke, and the result was this wild child here, Howie. We were both first-time parents and we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into, but I can guarantee you I wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world. Then came along John-Jon then Peter, we haven't named the youngest one to be but it'll be a nice name. Don't worry you'll find somebody Caleb and when you do your going to fill your heart race your mouth goes dry and maybe even lightheadedness because they'll be your world. Howie chuckled; not meaning to be created father even though he was human he's going to be mistaken for a genman with that ass. I mean if I didn't know any different, I would tag him as a genman plus he's got a nice body on not that I'm looking because I'm not. He might wear a little sign you like a nameplate I'm human because somebody's going to put their hand on his butt and they're not gonna mean anything derogatory by it is just their way of saying if you're ready I'll breed you. Caleb smiled and chuckled to himself; that's virgin territory and its gonna stay that way it's an exit only. I've always been kidded my entire life about my bubble butt not that a few gay men haven't made a pass at me because it's been done and I've deflected every one of them. And as far as the rest of my body I work out daily and I take a run every morning before showing up at the clinic. Howie asked Caleb would you mind standing up so he could sniff him, Caleb thought this was a weird request but obliged him. Howie did a deep smell and shook his head, Yep he's all human 100% no Genmen DNA anywhere on this young man that's for sure. Ron frowned at his son, well now that we got the sniff test out of the way how much you get your ass into the kitchen and helping your dad, he's been under a lot of stress today and a lot of it was because of you. Richard come walking out of the kitchen in a daze, what just happened here Howie is in the kitchen and told me to come out here meet with a guest that it's his responsibility to finish up supper, did you threaten the boy with an inch of his life again. No darlin' I did not I just asked him to go in and help you out since you have been under a lot of stress today and it was because of him, take charity where it presents itself don't question it just let it happen. Richard sat down and smiled and introduced himself to the newest guest, Caleb returned the compliment and introduced himself as the problem student that his better half had to call down the very first day and put on a leash. He was very thankful for Dr. Smithers in the way he treated him the very first day and got him in order. Richard asked Caleb what was he to do after graduation honors tomorrow; Sir I've got everything I need packed up and I'll be headed out to my new assignment for Hawthorne Memorial Hospital in their outreach programs. I will be going to the Z1 for my initial assignment and when the new clinic in the Township is opened, I will be transferred there to run it along with Dr. Stirling. That's wonderful young man I hope that you have a very fulfilling career in the medical field because wonderful people like you are what we need in the Genman society to help integrate us and the humans as one harmonious family. Matt spoke up; Richard you are aware of the new project is going on in the Township, it's called phase 2 at this time and they are building a master-planned community so that Genmen, hybrids, humans and their families will all live together. Repressed community was so thankful for everything that Jake Traylor, Ed Hawthorne and Mr. Zack are doing by building the community to accept all people of all races so that they can live together in peace. There are building a new hotel, shopping center, grocery store, and general merchandising center so that it can help supply not only the community but the ranches that live close. With the new Museum, library and education center at the Z1 things are looking up plus we have one of the most wonderful restaurants in town it's Constantine's malt shop and diner and at the Museum there's Donnie's place it's a restaurant that is of four-star quality, in fact you have to have a reservation. There is a small travel Lodge that has 65 rooms that can be reserved for overnight guests at this time, plus another 250 room hotel nearing completion and I think I know who the co-manager of that place is going to be if he applies for the job. You know it would be easy if you lived in phase 2, for Ron to commute to the main hospital since we own our transit shuttles now. Ron's ears perked up on this news, tell me more Matt what about housing and transit, Matt and Rupert explained everything about the Z1 transit system and what it entailed and the housing system that was going up, that they needed to come look at sooner than later and since Howie was moving to the Z1 they could keep a little bit closer tabs on him and be there if a grandchild was to be born. Howie walked to the entrance of the living room and gently cleared his throat; supper is on the table and we will be eating soon. John-Jon and Peter didn't waste no time they raced to the bathroom to clean up for supper. The dinner was very nice and the conversation was pleasant, Howie felt as if he was the general topic of discussion earlier between the adults. Ron looked at his oldest son; Howie tomorrow afternoon your dad needs to bring you down to the hospital so that you can leave from there. The boys will have a sitter so we don't have to worry about anything else. As far as anybody knows you're my oldest son from a previous marriage until I discovered that I was not happy living a lie and moved in with my gay lover Richard. I have Up this charade to keep you boys safe and to keep my job. I love you and I want the very best for you but first you must mature, and the Z1 is the safest place for you to mature at and hopefully you will learn what it's like to be around others of your kind. There are humans there that live with their Genmen spouses and or their hybrid spouses, there are also purebloods that live with purebloods and they have families. Mr. Zachary Spinelli you will meet runs the place and for over 20 years has given safe haven to those that are different such as yourself. He will not put up with no foolishness so son don't try him because you will lose. Howie thanked his father for his kind words and wisdom and he promised his father and dad that he would do everything he could to make them proud of him. Howie asked if there would be room for some of his artwork on the transit since he did not want to leave it all here especially his fantasy piece. Ron looked at his son; just exactly how fantasy is this piece of art young man? Enough that I've kept it hidden from you and dad for years, it's tasteful he is partially covered with a blanket. Go get it and bring it to us I have to see this instructed Ron. A red-faced Howie brought back the large painting facing backwards to the dining room. When he was asked to turn it around by his father, he sheepishly did as he was instructed. They're lying on his side in a seductive pose was a very large man who was only covered in the groin section with a towel. And even the towel left little to be surprised about. Ron and Richard scrambled to cover the young one's eyes, as his oldest son held up so proudly the oil painting of his fantasy man lying on a bed of pillows covered over with a small towel for his nether regions. You take that one with you I don't care what they have to do to get it on board but it's going be wrapped up in paper and then you can take it with you to your new home, where do you get your imagination. Matt kind of chuckled; actually, it's not imagination that's about correct Sir, that is Oleg without a doubt. In fact, Howie if you have any drawings any sketches or anything else that might be considered like that picture, please pack them all and we will make room somewhere on the transit. Rupert suddenly thought; were not taken the transit we are taking the sky jumper tomorrow. Remember Carter is taking us all home after the ceremonies. Well let's hope he has room for that monstrosity, because now that I know it exists, I don't want it in this house because of the little ones replied Richard. The meal ended and goodbyes were exchanged along with hope for the future. Matt, Rupert and Caleb left for the hotel. There was the usual chit-chat between the three on the way back when Matt asked Caleb; what are you gonna do if one of the hybrids or Genmen that lives on the ranch decides that your cute and he wants to date you. I'll just have to turn them down, no offense Matt to anybody but what's good for you is not what's good for me. I just can't see me sleeping much less having sex with a hybrid or a genman I just don't feel nothing like that. Caleb replied Rupert; when I first met Matt, I couldn't stand and I thought he was obnoxious and a number one class jerk, but like a fungus he grew up on me and now were having this little one. So, don't slam the door on something before it's ever opened because behind the barn door you might find somebody. Rupert that is very highly unlikely but thanks for the words of kindness. The next day was all full of pomp and circumstance, everything was going just fine and the graduation ceremonies and awarding of contracts to individuals who qualified as medical staff were winding down. Richard showed up with Howie and all of his belongings including the large paper wrapped painting fantasy man. Carter came down and introduced himself to everyone and tell them that their luggage was being relocated to the roof and packed away gently into the sky jumper. I understand there's quite a large brown wrapped I that they stowed away in the cargo area and it was smart very fragile do not crush do not stack anything on me. And I would like to assure the owner whoever it might be that I took special care of it so it's not damaged someone who goes through that much trouble must think a lot of it. Howie thanked him and replied that he promised that he would not be any trouble on the flight. It's my first time and will probably my only time ever to fly so I want to enjoy it and make the most of it. Ron and Richard were saying their goodbyes to Howie when Ron presented him with a digital video recorder so he could document his trip out to the ranch and they could see pictures of what he saw, it would also help his brothers get used to him not being at home. First Howie hugged his father and kissed his cheek then he hugged his dad and kissed his cheek also, he told them goodbye that he loved them and he would make them proud. They didn't have to worry about him screwing this chance up because this was going to be the rest of his life. After everyone was on board and in their seats belted in the sky jumper gently lifted off of the pad on top of Hawthorne Memorial, behind the observation glass Howie could see his parents waving goodbye to him. He wiped a few tears away from his cheeks as the pilot took off. After they were underway Carter unbuckled and started to walk around the cabin telling his guest what they would see on their way home. Alfred take us on a high that way these passengers can get a good look of the planet from above and when I mean high, I mean ceilings the limit. And we get near our destination hover around the entire place both ranches so they can see exactly how big their new home is and don't forget to do a flyover of the Township and the new subdivisions because I believe are going to have some new residents soon. That pilot had no problem doing is he was requested. Everyone aboard was shocked and delighted at what they saw. Howie had no problem filming the entire thing for his parents and his little brothers to see. He felt like he was someone special for once in his life, and his new life awaited him. It took almost 2 ½ hours for the journey to end because Carter kept on taking side tours. As they hovered above the Z1's landing pad, Zach and Ed were there waiting for them to land. Carter was the first one to disembark and walked directly up to Ed and gave him a kiss. Well my darling I see that you took the scenic route again? Me scenic route you gotta be kidding we just took a normal tour because this group needed it. Matt, Rupert, Caleb and Howie were a little shaky when they got back off the jumper and on stable land. Mr. Z welcomed everyone there should Matt and Rupert's hands then he approached Caleb welcomed him to the Z1 as a new medical staff member and when he came to Howie, he looked at him and remarked; young man now get yourself ready for the rest of your life your home now your new home that you will love. Howie thanked Mr. Zack for all that he could do for him. Well first of all; new arrivals must have a complete medical exam and work up and the information has to be loaded into our computer systems. There will be a physical exam and if everything is okay will proceed to the next step. Zack walked Howie to the Medical Center and put him in the capable hands of Lex and the medical staff. Lex introduced himself and told Howie to place his close in the locker stripping down completely and covering himself with an examination gown only. When he was through with that, he could have a seat on the examination table and the doctor would be in to examine him. Dr. Wooten walked in and found a very shy young man sitting on the table in front of him, I see that your name is Howie Smithers and from what I can read of your medical records this is your first exam ever of this nature. Let me explain to you what to take place one of the people from the blood lab will come in and take your blood sample, another person will come in and take your heart rate and your blood pressure and then when they're through with that they will put you in position for a digital exam and I will perform that, I'll be back in a few minutes young man don't worry about anything is normal it's routine actually. Howie did know what to do first is blood was taken in the needle stung then they took another test with wires attached all over him and when it was through the tech removed all the little sticky things off of him, the next process he wasn't so sure about their he was laying on his back looking at the ceiling with his legs spread out wide in his bottom side exposed to anyone who walked by at the foot of the exam table. Dr. Wooten walked in and walked to the side of the table young man, what I'll do next here is called a digital exam I will take a special instrument which is warmed and lubricated and I will insert it into your vent that I will gradually open your vent up you may feel discomfort but there shouldn't be any pain. I will take this little thin cable here is called the scope and I will insert it into your body cavity slowly avoiding damaging anything in the process and it'll go all the way up to your uterus so I can see the condition of your body from the inside so that when you get ready to conceive a child will know what process we have to do for delivery. Howie didn't think of anything but he felt a little gooey substance being applied to his vent Dr. Wooten told him to push his vent out which he complied. It was when he felt the pressure being applied and the speculum sliding up into his vent that he almost come off the table. Dr. Wooten laid his hand on his chest and told him to lay still because he moved around during this process, he could hurt himself. Howie lay there taking deep breaths as he felt the first click of the speculum as it began opening him up. It didn't hurt it just felt weird it felt as he was being spread open from the inside. Dr. Wooten told him he was doing just fine he would feel a little discomfort because his vent was not the largest of them all especially since he was hybrid. Now you might feel something weird and is just my scope going up inside you so I can see to make sure there's been no previous scarring no infections or anything else with your reproductive organs. Howie gasp as he felt the scope sliding into his inner sanctum. It didn't hurt but it didn't feel the best either it just felt like his insides were opening he could do nothing about it when he fell a lot of pressure at one point and then he felt funny on the inside. Dr. Wooten to switch and the monitor behind him turned on. Young man if you look at the monitor you'll see where I met in your body I'm all the way up inside of you into the reproductive organ called your uterus if you'll notice everything is nice and smooth in here, move the scope around and show you where your eggs come out of your ovaries when it's time for you to conceive a child. I'm slowly going to pull it out and you'll see as we come back through everything about the inside of your body and if you need me to stop and you have a question, I can do that also. We do this to make sure there's no scar tissue or anything obstructing the fallopian tubes and the uterus is in good shape that it isn't tilted or misshapen that could sometimes hamper you from conceiving. As he gently pulled the scope out word from the inter portion of Howie's body, Howie asked; where you're at right now we just pulled to that little opening that right there what is that Sir? That my young man is known as your hymen you'll see the little slit opening and you see this other skin growth here that is the hymen it's to prove that you are in fact pure and never have had sexual intercourse before. Now when you do have sex your partner will insert his penis and come up to this point and apply pressure until it ruptures and he enters and to the portion of your body so that he goes up into your uterus with his reproductive organ. During this process of tearing or rupturing the hymen you will experience some bleeding and that's normal that's what they mean by being a virgin and he just took your virginity and or your cherry. A very naïve Howie realized he didn't know anything about sex everything he'd ever been told was wrong. Does it hurt when that happens, I mean when he takes your virginity does it hurt at all. Howie when you decide to have sex for the first time you come to the clinic and either Lex or I will supply you with a special lube and applicator to put it inside of yourself not only does it help with the ease of your partner getting into you for the first time but it has a desensitizing effect which lessons any pain which may occur. So, let's get you out of the stirrups after I removed the speculum and you can go have a seat outside so that the second part can be done. Everything here is fine perfectly built no defaults at all and when you get ready to bear children you will have no problem other than the normal stretching of the vent as they come out. Now while you're sitting out there you may notice some sensations in your vent went starts drawing back closed it may be a slight pulsing even a slight sting but that's perfectly normal. The young Tech helped Howie down from the table and steadied him as he took his first steps. Howie walked a little bowlegged as he went out to the waiting area. Howie set down on the cold hard chair in the waiting area he was sitting next to another young man who was squirming a little. The young man introduced himself as Houston, Howie responded with his name. Is your you know what stinging a little bit because after that stretch and I just took mine stinging like hell. Yeah it is kind of stinging and pulsing and throbbing a little bit but the doctor said that it was just normal and it would be fine. What if you know he's human he never had one those things stuck up in his vent and spread open wide, I don't care how much cream they give you to deaden it when that thing comes alive ouch. As the two young men were discussing their dilemma with their vents Mr. Z walked in and took a seat beside Houston. Well the first parts all the way young man and I see you survived in fact I see that both of you survived. Mr. Zack what did they do that inquired Houston. Well Houston and Howie here at the Z1 we want to make sure that before and after you transition we keep an accurate detailed record of your body everyone gets blood drawn when they first arrived and they have a general exam now the digital exam is done before and after transition so that we can monitor the body of changes and difficulties should they decide to conceive children. And I can see by your forms that both of you desire to have children and that your strictly bottoms and are not going to want to go into the versatile or the breeding program. Howie didn't know what versatile meant so he asked what was it. Zack smiled; here we have three different kind of producers we have bottoms which only carry and then we have the versatile which produce and carry offspring and then we have the breeders who only produce children. You mean there are Genmen here that get another Genmen pregnant and they get pregnant to responded Howie? Yes, precisely we have couples that one will get pregnant then approximately a month to two months later the other one will conceive by the first one that's what we mean by versatile and then we have those that will go to into the breeding program and conceive a child either by one of our breeders but most the times by visiting breeders. Then we have the ones that come from other farms and ranches just to conceive a child by one of our top-notch breeders within a month of their conception of the child, they return to their respective farms and ranches so our bloodlines are all over. You see a couple right there that inside beside holding hands look at him you got one was due anytime now the other ones three months behind him they're expecting each other's children and they live together as a family unit. Here we also have humans that have decided that they want a genman and or hybrid lover and they produce their own children together is quite wonderful what we built here and that's a family. Howie was amazed at what Mr. Z was telling him, can I ask you a question Sir. Feel free to ask me any question and I will answer it the best of my ability. If I find someone that I intend to mate with I know I have to wait to my ninth month after my second cycle has occurred will I be allowed to conceive with him or will you assign me someone to breed me first so that I can be stretched inside. Howie you are a first-generation hybrid and yes, your insides are little bit different than a pure blood genman. We normally like you to consider a first-time conception with a smaller mate if you are intending to conceive children with a pure blood. But I know all about your little dilemma, and may I say you're quite the artist while they were unloading some of your drawing your portfolio fell open. You have a rare talent there, young man and you've chosen a very good subject; Oleg Yorgason is a fine man and one hell of a human, I've not seen too many like him. He's gentle and he's very kind and very agile for someone his size but he would definitely stretch you out when you two get together. Now I'm going tell you this right now there won't be any hanky-panky and no sneaking around or I will send him away you get that clear through your head. No Sir I will not jeopardize myself nor him by trying anything stupid. My father kinda got that point clear the other day when he tanned my hide. What if you play your cards right young man after all this is over and before I show you to your quarters, I will introduce you to Oleg. He is aware that you were here and wants to meet you too. Now let's go to the second part of the exam both of you because you're going to be roommates so you need to know about each other. Both of the boys looked at each other not realizing this before. The first on the table was Howie he uncovered his belly and the gel was applied to his bare stomach, Lex did a preliminary scan then did the 8D scanning system both young men were amazed at the way the scanner worked opening up the body one layer at a time. Howie couldn't believe that he could see the inside of his body and especially his reproductive organs he was delighted to know that he had three ovaries like all Genmen should and his insides were perfect. Houston crawled up on the table and lifted his gown to expose his belly and Lex repeated same process during the 8D scanning system it was discovered that Houston only had one ovary within his body. Lex looked again and even intensified the scanner but there was only one fallopian tube and ovary connecting to the uterus. Things like this happened especially in hybrids but not very often. Lex explained to Houston everything about the inside of his body and how it was designed, he also explained to him that it would be more difficult for him to conceive a child than the average hybrid Genmen. Now it's not impossible that you will have a lesser chance of becoming impregnated through sex. Houston was a little confused but he understood that he was different and it was okay if that was meant to be which is meant to be. Lex and Mr. Zack left the young men so that they could dress, Houston was a little bummed out. Howie to lighten the mood joked a little bit, wow young they got a 30% chance to get in knocked up by having sex hell I get in there and I can to be around someone I can get pregnant you need to go you'd be around him upside and downside of him and still not get pregnant boy you got it made you have all the fun and none of the after results. As the two new roommates walked out of the room Houston called a good look of the new Dr. young Caleb Allen. Damn would you look at that ass on that Genmen everybody's going want his vent, hell I'd love it just to have him on top me thrusting away and I can have that big beefy ass to grab onto that would be one hell of a ride. The comment from Houston brought a round of laughter from Howie. He's not Genmen that beautiful ass belongs to a human. Yep that's 100% pure human who would've thought they'd make a human with a genman ass you should only be that lucky to have him on you. But I wouldn't bet on it because he's here to work not to play especially not with Genmen or hybrids. Not to be outdone Houston walked directly up to Caleb and introduced himself. Dr. Allen my name is Houston Roland I'm a hybrid and I'm going to transform within the next week so any time after that if you want a good roll in the hay let me know you can have this vent anytime you want, because with my defect on the inside is highly unlikely that you would ever knock me up, but I could definitely have some fun riding on your pogo stick. Caleb stood there shocked and slightly embarrassed is this young genman advertise to him that he was open for business and he could have first poke. That's very nice young man but I'm here to work not to have relationships with the residents here. Houston snickered; who said anything about a relationship I said you could fuck me anytime you want big boy, and when it comes to an ass like that, I know you could drive that Rod. Then he turned around and walked away. Howie stood there for a second you have to forgive him he just found out some information that wasn't that appealing, it seems that the genetic cross on him didn't give all of his insides a chance to develop and he has little to no chance of ever conceiving, but we're roommates and we have to watch out for each other. Zack walked up to Caleb; forgive young Houston he's going to go through his transition probably within the week and on his preliminary exam he found out of the three ovaries that most all hybrids and Genmen's have, he was only allotted one. He can have all the fun he wants but probably never will produce a child. He'll be shunned by most all hybrids and Genmen because he can't reproduce and the only human that would want him will end up treating him like a prostitute from the city street corner. Caleb looked at Zack; that's such a shame he is a very nice-looking young man and you said he hasn't even transformed yet Sir. No and I don't suspect he will tell his parents either of his biological development because he's proud and doesn't want anyone to feel pity for him. Howie caught up with Houston and laid his arm across his roommate's shoulders, let's go check our place out, see who gets what bed. I can cook a little bit if you can't so we won't starve. Houston laughed, at least that's one thing I can do is cook so no we're not going to starve to death. Coming Soon P-44.
