Mission: Chapter IV: Unravelling the Mystery
Location: Kestrel (Drozana)
Timeline: 238702.20

The day had been an interesting one for all concerned, but now it was rapidly approaching its end and Ian, Daisy and Skylar sat in the cockpit of Kestrel summing up how it had gone, with Azalea having gone to bed some hours ago. It had been decided between them they would help Raven and her crew by producing the scanners they’d asked for, but at a reduced price considering she had saved the lives of Daisy and Azalea a few years ago.

“How long do you think it’ll take you to put them together?” Daisy asked.

Ian responded, having already begun design work on the scanners in earnest.

“I can probably have the design finished by the end of play tomorrow, another day or so to put them together and then have Skylar work her magic on them” Ian responded, taking a sip from his glass.

Skylar nodded. “Add a day on top of that and that’s your answer, Daisy”

“I wish I knew how you guys did it, honestly” Daisy replied, also taking a sip from her glass.

Ian began to reply to Daisy’s statement, before Skylar pointed out it was intended as a compliment rather than a question.

“Rhetorical statement, Ian” Skylar said, smiling at her brother.

Ian bowed to his younger sister’s knowledge, before deciding to get back to work at his work station. The bespectacled synth liked being busy, even if his haphazard nature meant he spent more time looking for components or tools he needed rather than actually getting on with fixing or building whatever he was working on.

As the evening wore on, Daisy was sat on the floor of Kestrel’s cockpit, while Skylar was sat in the same seat as she had been all evening. While Daisy had had several drinks, she wasn’t as intoxicated as she had been when she, Ian, Taryn and Lennon had a party the evening she and Azalea had first arrived at Eden.

“I don’t know where I’d be without you, Skylar” Daisy said.

Skylar smiled. “I’m sure you’d be fine”

“I wouldn’t be who I am today without you though. You taught me everything I know about being a nurse, about life in general” Daisy responded.

Skylar chuckled. While she had the appearance of a woman who was around 25 years old, in reality she had only been active for six years, although it felt like it had been a whole lot longer. Still, Skylar was more than happy to accept the compliment she’d been given.

“Well Daisy, if making you the best nurse in the galaxy is all I’ve achieved when I go offline, then I’ve done something useful with my time” Skylar replied, finishing off her drink. She’d managed to keep pace with Daisy with ease, due to her immunity to alcohol intoxication.

Daisy paused for a few moments before speaking again.

“Theoretically, how long…you know?” Daisy asked.

Skylar responded. “Indefinitely, at least in theory. Whether that theory actually stacks up in reality is another matter entirely”

“You and your immortality” Daisy said, a grin on her face.

Skylar smiled back. “The average human lifespan isn’t too shabby either”

“True. Anyway, I think I’ve had enough to drink for one night so I’m going to head to bed” Daisy said, standing up and preparing to head to her fold-down bunk in the cargo bay.

Skylar replied. “Sounds like a good plan. Goodnight, Daisy”

“Night” Daisy replied, smiling.

Daisy then headed to the cargo bay at Kestrel’s stern, passing the pilots quarters where her sister was fast asleep and Ian’s workshop on her way. Once the door of the cargo bay was closed, the nurse put some music on and began undressing, removing her dress followed by her bra. Daisy then reached for the storage locker mounted in the recess the bed folded into, opening it and removing her nightgown, dropping it on the bunk and then removing her underwear. After picking up her nightgown to put it on, Daisy turned around and almost jumped out of her skin.

“Computer, stop music. Skylar!” Daisy exclaimed.

Skylar had not anticipated Daisy would be in such a state of undress when she decided to head to her own bunk. However, the sight in front of Skylar was impossible to look away from. The synth, who had never been remotely interested in sex or relationships, found her gaze drifting from Daisy’s ample chest, to her curvy hips and finally her treasure. Skylar had no idea why, but she found herself unable to stop looking at Daisy’s naked body. It was a work of art.

The synth watched intently as Daisy slowly walked closer to her, until she stopped no more than a foot in front of her. Skylar swallowed a nervous lump in her throat, wondering why she was feeling this way. This curious, never felt before urge building up inside Skylar became too great for her to resist, so she bridged the gap between herself and Daisy, pushed her towards the nearest bulkhead and crashed her lips against Daisy’s, breaking away a few seconds later.

A pleasantly surprised Daisy looked deeply into Skylar’s brown eyes, seeing a lust, hunger and desire she’d never seen in them before. Before she had a chance to initiate another kiss, the synth had beaten her to it. The kiss was fierce and lustful as their tongues swirled around the other’s in their mouths, Skylar’s hands resting on Daisy’s chest, the nurse’s resting on the synth’s buttocks. As the kiss continued, Daisy helped Skylar undress until she too was equally naked.

Daisy watched as Skylar’s right hand reached for her left side, the synth curiously moving her hand up Daisy’s left side before removing it again. Her touch was sensual, delicate. She had never seen Skylar in this way before, but if someone as special as her was her first time, then Daisy wouldn’t be complaining.

Skylar kissed Daisy on the lips sweetly, before placing kisses down her torso. Then, after kissing up and down the inside of each of Daisy’s legs, Skylar made love to her. Daisy had never felt so good before in her life, how Skylar was making her feel in each and every moment she made love to her was electric. As the synth clutched each of Daisy’s buttocks for support, the nurse held Skylar’s head, caressing the synth’s thick, flowing brown hair sensually. Daisy’s loud groans of pleasure encouraged Skylar to continue with her tempo, which was maintained until Daisy crossed the finishing line several minutes later.

No more than a minute after she’d crossed the finish line, Daisy returned the favour. She assumed the subdued groans of pleasure from the synth woman were a good sign. She felt as Skylar’s fingers worked their way through her hair. Daisy loved Skylar playing with her hair, maybe it was a sign that Skylar had liked it when Daisy did it to her. The synth was enjoying the experience. She had never considered sex before, but when an opportunity such as this came along, Skylar knew she’d be a fool to turn down someone like Daisy. The nurse was making the synth feel as good as Daisy felt, these new feelings Skylar was experiencing made her want more.

A quarter of an hour later, the naked women were lying in Daisy’s bunk. The nurse was already fast asleep in the synth’s arms. Skylar enjoyed what had happened, but she was now in deep conflict with herself. She had never considered sex before in her existence, but when Daisy offered herself to Skylar on a plate, she couldn’t refuse. What confused Skylar more was, of all the people she’d ever met so far, why was it Daisy her previously untapped, dormant lust unleashed itself on?

The next morning, Skylar rose early. Sleep wasn’t a requirement for her, but it was something she chose to do every few days or so in order to experience dreams or truly immerse herself in her mind palace. She’d caught up with Ian, who’d worked through the night and had already managed to produce a prototype scanner which was ready for Skylar to programme. This is something she set about doing immediately, with Ian disappearing off to the bazaar on another supply run.

Daisy rose half an hour or so later, donning the nightie and underwear which she’d left on the floor the previous night. After checking on Azalea, who was still asleep, Daisy approached Skylar and wrapped her arms around the synth’s waist. However, the reaction Daisy received was not what she was expecting.

“Get off” Skylar said, shaking herself free from Daisy’s grip.

Daisy let go, before replying. “What’s got into you?”

“You. Just because…doesn’t mean you can start going round doing that” Skylar replied, turning around to face Daisy.

Daisy folded her arms, unimpressed. “Oh wow. So last night we have sex, which you are actually allowed to say, but this morning you’re acting like this”

“Yeah, and it was a mistake that’s never going to happen again” Skylar said, bluntly. She then turned back to what she was doing, eager to get the task completed before her scheduled meeting with Raven later that morning.

Daisy sighed. “You know what Skylar, I gave myself to you unconditionally last night because I thought you were special and someone who deserved to be my first. Forgive me for thinking it actually meant something to you, because for me having sex with you was special. Clearly I was wrong and should have waited for someone else”

Daisy then retreated to the pilot’s quarters, where she would wait until Azalea woke. She was due to be joining Skylar for the meeting with Raven, but after the conversation they’d just had it seemed likely that wasn’t going to happen. She just hoped the animosity would reduce sufficiently so Ian wouldn’t suspect something had happened between her and Skylar when he got back. Ian was none the wiser that Daisy and Skylar had slept together the previous evening, but Daisy knew he’d suspect something before too long.
