Welcome back.

This chapter is dedicated to Starr and how she sees the result of the genetic

experiment in the six kids she wants. Also I have to move in about two weeks to

a new place and I’m not sure how long it’ll take to get the internet hooked up

again at the new place so I wanted to get some chapters done for my stories

and challenges.

Mission Log 2:

A successful attempt at breeding was established within a reasonably quick amount

of time. I am looking forward to documenting the experience as I develop. My report

will include all my feelings, cravings and physiological changes as my pregnancy

develops. Chester is thrilled as I would expect him to be.

Page 4: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

He wishes to pamper me throughout, I am not sure if this is normal male behaviour or

simply the result of bolts, I must make a note about which one is true. However, I do

not mind his attention, it feels good to be waited on hand and foot.

Page 5: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Chester: Don’t you worry Starr, I will keep working hard to make sure our house is a

great place to be for the kids once they come.

Starr: Ah, yes a domicile upgrade; very important to have.

Chester: I love it when you talk like that.

Starr: I am sure you do.

Page 6: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I was not prepared for the pain that would accompany a birth, I was never present

when our abductees were due. It is a pain unlike any I have ever experienced before

and I was fortunate enough to have Chester home to document the occasion for my

log. And he said he wanted to “remember the moment” or some such human

sentimentality.

Page 7: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I soon found out that the pain was worth it when I held my daughter for the first time.

She bore a resemblance to me in everything except my eyes, those were the eyes of

her father looking up at me. I was overcome with a warm feeling of happiness as she

looked at me. I decided to name the offspring after constellations with interesting

human mythos attached to them. My first born shall be called Andromeda.

Page 8: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

The baby stage was short as I noted and soon it was time for Andromeda to attain

more mobility and freedom before education can officially begin. Chester expressed a

desire to teach her all of the skills he thought she would need as she grew older. I

had no such desires, at first. I was more interested in continuing the genetic

experiments. I was soon carrying the next child, I could tell.

Page 9: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I noted that she took more after her father in facial structure but after me in colouring

aside from the eyes. The result was exciting, and I looked forward to the next ones

being even more so.

Andromeda Reisenden

Page 10: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

While I awaited the next birth, I decided to make a memoire that could be passed

down through the generations with each heir adding their own experiences to it. I

already had a digital copy saved on this primitive machine but there is something

tangible about a physical record. Some human families keep these memoires as

heirlooms, and I think that I would like to do the same.

Page 11: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I made time for my mate as well as my research. He had been working a lot to ensure

that this domicile would be suitable for the growing family we were building. I was

pleased with the result so far and am looking forward to future additions and

renovations to this place. My income was helping to build into it as well, I was not

aware of how well the human political system paid. I am currently sitting at level 8 in

that career.

Page 12: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

You would think that the pain would lessen the more times you experience it…but

that is not the case. I knew had to do this at least once or twice more before I had the

required amount of offspring to study. One could hope that it will get better…

Page 13: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

The second result was not as exceptional as I wanted. I seemed to have fallen prey

to what the human doctors called FBE or FBD. The First Born Effect/Defect; another

daughter who resembled Andromeda in every way. Perhaps there is something amiss

with the breeding process, I must make a note to investigate that for future offspring. I

have named this daughter Ursa Major.

Page 14: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Upon further review, it was time to transition Andromeda into Stage 3 of her life cycle.

Or childhood as the humans call it. I do not remember ever having a childhood

myself, perhaps I was not one of the Pollination Technicians who requested that.

Either way, a good scientist must observe all stages of life with the utmost dedication.

And I plan to do so…

Page 15: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Chester informed me that it was customary to purchase “transition clothing” for a

child. I had not been aware of such a custom but I did not argue. I went to the

clothing dispensary to purchase some clothing for Andromeda and Ursa Major, as

well as any future offspring. Andromeda preferred to play rather than study but I told

her that she must use this time to educate herself before she can play.

Page 16: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

In between the births I had time to return to work. I had reached level 9 before it

became apparent that I would be off again rather soon. Chester had achieved his

wish to become a Mad Scientist and now he only worked four hours a day, three days

a week. It proved to be quite useful in assisting the butler with the children while he

was off.

Page 17: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Ursa Major’s second transition had renewed my hope that she would have a distinct

variation in her personality from her sister. Genetic clones aside, she may turn out to

be quite different than Andromeda…

Page 18: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I decided to take charge of her education this time. She was quicker to pick up on my

teaching and learned how to talk faster than her sister did. I think I may have gotten

my wish that she would be different.

Page 19: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Interaction between the sisters was essential to my educational plans for them. I want

them to realize that genetic resemblance is not everything, that despite everything

they can get along as siblings should. Andromeda is teaching her sister valuable

social lessons, how to interact with others, and how to share. My hope is that she will

have helped her sister to be ahead of the crowd once they both go to school together.

Page 20: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

This birth felt different from the previous two; I found my energy and nutritional

requirements were substantially quicker to decay throughout this pregnancy. I did not

know the cause and hoped to have an answer after the birthing process was

completed…

Page 21: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I was not pleased that Chester had decided to sit at the computer while I was in the

middle of the birth…

Page 22: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I had birthed quadruplets; a rare fertility

option in human society. Two boys and

two girls. So now I had my answer as to

why my motives were dropping faster

during this pregnancy. I named them:

Bootes, Castoria, Orion, and Polla.

Page 23: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

I added to my memoire what it was like to give birth to quadruplets. I was not

expecting it and it will make my genetic research more interesting. I intend to find out

if there is a special connection between children born together and sharing a womb. I

have never heard of such a thing happening with our abductees. Usually we implant

only one child, multiple births are not part of our procedure for the pollinations. There

is great interest in finding out how multiple births occur if it was not planned from the

start.

Page 24: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

When it was time we set up an assembly line type of cakes for the transitions of the

youngest five. Andromeda patiently watched us as we brought them to the cakes two

at a time. She was the oldest and it was part of her education in my opinion, to be

there to observe the procedure.

Page 25: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

Stage three was complete for Ursa Major.

I had taken a moment to document it

before getting the next child for the

transition to stage two.

Page 26: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

This is one of my sons, Orion. He takes after his father in features as well, only with

my colouring and hair.

And these two are my daughter Castoria

with my eye shape and facial structure

but with her father’s eyes. And my

second son Bootes who was the only one

to inherit my black eyes and facial

structure. Although I believe that is his

father’s nose I see on him.

Page 28: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

And the last to transition to Stage 2 was Polla. Chester’s car pool had arrived by the

time it was her turn so he missed it. I made sure to set up the camera to take the

pictures of her transition for him. I am not sure if she is another genetic clone of her

older sisters Andromeda and Ursa Major, it is hard to determine at this point.

Skill teaching for the quads will wait as Chester has gone to work and I am

exhausted. I set them to the activity table so that they may learn to interact with one

another first before teaching them their skills.

Page 30: Fabulares Animalia: Chapter 2

We were able to add the second storey to the house and have begun to prepare the

rooms for the children. It is not finished yet and we were only able to afford to finish

the older girls’ rooms for now. I am glad that the two are still interacting together, it

will help them out as they take on the roles of oldest sisters to the younger quads.

End Log.
