Descend- Seeing Stars by Sean Oswald (the ebook reader .TXT) 📕

minutes to empty to full in one minute. One minutes might be an eternity in combat, but it still allowed for him to recuperate at an astounding rate. No more holding back for him.

His body underwent other changes as he now hit 8’8” and weighed in at around one thousand pounds. He found that without even trying streams of PSI poured out of him and into every one of his fuses whenever they got close to him. The impact of that was something he would have to explore later. Now he had to buckle down and keep going.

      Finally, and perhaps most importantly, he had gained the ability to push all of his skills to a sixth level of amplification. The PSI drain was significant, but his pool of available power would only grow as he continued to fuse with the rest of the girls.

      Olivia was next followed by Bella. He knew both of them relatively well. They would add helpful powers, but it was more their willingness to join the whole that would make them all stronger.

      After that, Rosa showed up at his door. The mother of one of his children, and a woman that he had found himself thinking about far too often. This was one time that it was no struggle. In fact, the hardship was finishing in time for the next girl. Jay was even more reassured about his decision today after the fusion. He could feel the doubts and uncertainty that Rosa felt, and then could feel it washed away as she gained a better understanding of him. They were one now.

      It started to become a blur after that. Next was Skylar with her ability to create matter out of pure PSI, then Angel with her power to create bursts of light. Next came Kenzie, who he had known since that first day on the beach. She could be as cold as her power, but he knew that she had wanted this for a while, and now she was getting her wish.

      Niamh’s power of Augmented Form intrigued Jay, but he didn’t have time yet to experiment with it before he was on to Zuri’s Energy Conversion power and then Jade’s Acid Creation. After that came Deja, another newcomer that he didn’t know well. Her power was to interface with technology. Jay wasn’t sure how he would implement that, but he hoped it would come in handy.

      Each fusion brought him to ever increasing heights of power. He was swimming in power and felt stretched more and more. But he kept pushing on. This was hardly torture even if the strain of increasing his power this quickly was testing him.

      Sage’s Bio-radiation Absorption and Generation was just another type of energy manipulation for him to learn as Ellie’s Telekinetic shielding, Willow’s Aerokinesis and Aurora’s Light Control. If he had enough time, he was sure that each power would have been another deadly arrow in his quiver, but now his brain felt crammed full to the point of exploding. For once since he had learned the Tempus Fugit fields, time did not seem to be on his side.

      Thirty hours of lovemaking with fifteen women and repeated surges of power had him worn out. He didn’t think they had more than another eighteen hours or so. He really needed to go check on the progress being made in the science division but someone else was at his door. He knew who through his bond with her but wasn’t able to understand why.

He opened the door before Eesa could even knock. Then she dropped to the ground in the prostrating bow of her people. Jay pulled her up and asked, “What can I do for you, wife?”

      “I want to join with you, my lord husband,” she replied with her eyes on the floor.

      “Oh Eesa, I don’t think that is possible,” Jay said. His mind was swarming with the emotions of all the new women he had just fused with, but he still had only one Tamoori wife and even if he had only met her a short time ago in the normal timeline, he still had come to value her.

      “Is it because I am not human, my lord husband?”

      “Yes, but not in the way that you are implying. It has nothing to do with me wanting you less. In fact, I want you more than many of those women I just fused with. Some of them I barely get along with and others I barely know. But you don’t have a PSI core. The way I fuse lately is all about merging my core with the woman,” Jay replied.

      “Oh…, I understand,” Eesa said and turned to leave, but then at the last second turned back and said, “You said that is how you fuse now, but is it always how you fused?”

      Jay thought back over all the missteps in fusing. The first time had been completely accidental. He certainly hadn’t tried to connect their cores. He barely understood what those were back then. “No, it wasn’t always like that but as I learned how to do it better, I understood what needed to happen.”

      Eesa had the most peculiar way of being aggressive and yet bashful all at the same time. “How was it done then, lord husband?”

      “I guess it was all about need and desire,” Jay said slowly.

      “I need you. I desire you,” Eesa said. The unspoken question hung in the air.

      Jay wondered if it could be that simple. He certainly had been trying to control everything lately. He felt so much responsibility for everyone. All of humanity, what was left at least depended upon him. “I need you too, Eesa. I could never have imagined that a savage, blood thirsty cat girl could fill a gap that was missing in me, but
