Pea Pod - Give Peas a Chance

"You're telling me the Queen of Ka'an has a body like that?" the girl didn't look entirely convinced but made no more stupid statements.

"If you do not answer in the next few seconds, Windy is likely to start giving you incentives that our doctor will have to be called to repair," I encouraged.

"My name is Nayla," she finally answered.

"Well... it's kind of a contradiction, but I believe you," I countered. (Nayla means one with perception.) "Now I would like to know why you tried to kill my guest, Chalchiuhtlicue."

"Because she betrayed me," Nayla spat back.

"Chalchiuhtlicue, did you betray Nayla, and if so how and when?" I asked.

"Nayla may feel betrayed, but she was the betrayer," Chalchiuhtlicue assured me.

"You told the Empress our plans!" she accused.

"I wasn't about to allow you and your followers to murder the Empress," Chalchiuhtlicue stated. "There may have been inequities in the Empresses regime, but you wanted me to assassinate my own mother. If I had betrayed you, you would have been exiled along with me."

"Chalchiuhtlicue, what would have happened after you assassinated your mother?" I asked innocently.

"I was to become Empress and rule with Nayla at my side," she informed me.

"NAYLA, YOU CANNOT LIE TO ME, TELL ME WHAT THE PLAN WAS AFTER CHALCHIUHTLICUE ASSASSINATED HER MOTHER," I demanded and the words seemed to echo after I spoke them.

Nayla's eyes seemed to glaze over as she replied, "After Chalchiuhtlicue assassinated her mother I planned to have her tried for the murder and put to death, thereby opening up the throne to me."

Immediately after she told us that she quickly exclaimed, "That's not what I meant to say! I was to be second in command with Chalchiuhtlicue ruling..."

Therefore, I did it again, "NAYLA, YOU CANNOT LIE TO ME! ARE YOU REEDEMABLE?"

Nayla looked terrified but she replied, "No, I will always seek a way to command all!"

I heard a little 'crick' and Nayla dropped to the floor, lifeless.

"The justice of the Amazonian cannot be denied!" Windy declared.

"What the hell just happened," the Empress asked.

"Empress, Queen Dolly mastered the 'Voice of Truth', far beyond anything that I have ever accomplished," Windy admitted, "Nayla was forced to witness against herself and to admit that she was not redeemable."

"I hoped there was some chance that she had a good heart so I figured that if I commanded her to tell me that she would explain something that would give me an opportunity to save her," I sadly admitted as a tear dropped to Heidi's deck.

Chimalmat decided that it was time and stated, "Queen Dolly, whether you accept the Empress, Chalchiuhtlicue, or anyone else from our town, please accept me as your eternally loyal servant!"

"Honey, both you and the Empress were in almost an hour ago," I told them.

"Mother, the Queen can see into your very soul," Chalchiuhtlicue informed her, "So eat up and enjoy our repast. This is the day before Laguinita is reborn."

"Chalchiuhtlicue, how do you know that?" the Empress asked.

"The fishing vessel we just spoke to was resurrected at the command of the Queen," Chalchiuhtlicue stated, "We are in her good graces and her goal to drag Ka'an back from the brink means we are to benefit, as long as we deal in good faith."

"At this point, I am no longer dealing in good faith, I have surrendered completely," the Empress admitted.

"That usually leads to the most amazing experiences in the Queen's boudoir," Meka informed the freaked out Empress.

"Now that we have eaten like peasants do, which is more stunningly delicious than ever before in my life, what would you have us do Queen Dolly," the Empress asked.

"You know, right after lunch I kind of like taking a stroll," I informed the ladies, "Who is up for a tour of the Empresses palace?"

The entire dining hall erupted with, "We are!"

The Empress almost wet herself, "Most certainly I would enjoy touring the Queen."

"Dolly, I will be on high alert the moment you venture beyond my protection," Heidi admitted, "Should anyone be stupid enough to attack you and your party, I beg not to be responsible for the devastation."

"Dolly, may I dismiss Chimalmat to converse with our constables prior to our venturing out?" the Empress asked.

"Be my guest," I granted, "Heidi, please broadcast to the entire town your intensions, should anything happen to me or my entourage."

Chimalmat said, "Excuse me," and then left the table at a dead run.

The booming voice of Heidi rang out, "Beware those who would intend harm to the Queen of Ka'an! I Heidi, the first sentient artificial intelligence on two worlds, will wreak vengeance upon your town, your descendants, and your ancestors! I will end all evidence of your bloodline, planet wide! Contemplate no harm to the queen and your town will profit in unbelievable ways, contemplate the opposite, there will be no place in this universe or any other to hide from me!"

"Does she really mean that she has access to other universes?" the Empress asked.

"Heidi has been working on my unreality drive for some time now," I admitted.

"Even Bitol never dreamed of such a thing!" the Empress declared.

"That would be why Mayahuel has been helping Heidi in the development," I insisted.

"Why waste time with us?" the Empress asked.

"How the hell do you think I found Mayahuel, Zager Slayer, and Kùutsmil?" I asked, "I'm a hands-on queen."

"More like a hands all over queen Dolly, but who's complaining?" Gwen laughed.

"This is almost surreal," the Empress exclaimed. She stood and asked, "Would you care to follow me?"

"That's the ticket!" I confirmed as I jumped up to cue up behind the Empress.

As we attained the gang plank we spied Chimalmat waiting for us at the bottom, "I have my ladies guarding all major points from where we might be threatened."

I smiled and kissed her cheek, "That was very magnanimous of you dear."

"There's a dozen real Amazons all around town on watch, isn't there?" she asked.

"That does not negate your efforts sweet lady," I immediately replied.

Chimalmat nearly swooned and replied, "Long live, Queen Dolly!"

We made our way across the courtyard without incident and entered the front doors, "Welcome to the government center of Laguinita," the Empress exclaimed as we looked around the darkened building.

"Where would your building's power generation, be located Empress?" I asked.

"It is too dark to enter that area Queen Dolly," she apologized.

I reached out, touched her, and stated, "The Goddesses blessing."

"Oh my god...! You will be able to see by the light from me glowing!"

"If you become too dim, I can bless Chimalmat next," I giggled.

We proceeded to the building's basement with a gaggle of technicians following behind, "Did Mayahuel deign to accompany my little mission?"

"I would never leave you needing technical expertise my queen," Mayahuel called from behind me, "I would never risk disappointing you!"

"Oh my goddess...! Bitol the engineer has accompanied us!" Chimalmat exclaimed, stumbling in the dark.

"I also brought lights!" Mayahuel snickered as she energized them.

"Eww, it's an old Ajbit model!" she declared, "Okay, which one of your people put this here?" Mayahuel held up a module that she had removed from the system.

"That has occupied its space for as long as I can remember," Chimalmat answered.

"Well, it belongs to a completely different system and will never function here," Mayahuel informed her. She whispered to one of the other technicians who took off as if shot from a cannon.

Mayahuel clambered all over that system while we waited for the return of the other lady. Minutes later, the technician was carried in to us by one of my Amazons, "Here is your part Mayahuel," she said as she handed it to her.

"What happened, Amazon?" I demanded.

"There was an attempt on the technician's life," my Amazon admitted, "There is now one block of Laguinita missing and a pool of lava where it once stood."

"My lovely technician shouldn't be here and if she isn't in the infirmary within..." was as far as I could speak before the thunderclap of an Amazon moving at battle speed indicated she had left.

Heidi quickly informed me, "The technician has entered the infirmary, and Doctor Ixazalvoh is now taking care of her."

"Please inform my technician how much I appreciate her and that she not only will receive the Goddesses blessing, she is invited to the Royal Orgy tonight or whatever night she feels up to it."

"That is so diabolical," the Empress exclaimed.

"What is that honey?" I asked.

"By honoring the least of your subjects, you ensure that everyone who works for you will near kill themselves for your approval," she surmised.

"Actually, Dolly does it because she loves her subjects," Meka assured the Empress.

"Shit... that is even worse," Chimalmat declared

"Worse for whom...?" Gwen asked.

"Anyone who is not in the Queens inner circle," Chimalmat stated.

"Why would you say that?" I asked.

"Only in admiration, Queen Dolly," Chimalmat added, "You subjects have real reason for their support and love."

"If my wife is nothing else, she is genuine, she loves her people and her twenty three wives," Gwen informed the ladies.

Suddenly the lights blazed on, "Queen Dolly, your Empress has her power systems restored."

"Let's adjourn and see if this building has an AI," I stated as we took the A-Grav shaft up.

"I do not believe this," the Empress exclaimed, "Power systems in this building haven't functioned in my lifetime."

"So, was this always a government building or did you appropriate it?" I asked.

"I have no idea what the building used to be," the Empress admitted, "It was sturdy, big, and empty when I took it over. I felt it was a good place to hide my husband and protect him from the marauding gangs. I was able to protect him for many, many years but after Chalchiuhtlicue was born, the building was overrun and he died in the ensuing battle."

"Amazons, have you found the building's computer yet?" I asked my boobies.

As I asked the question, Mayahuel disappeared and quickly I heard, "I'm working on its restoration now Dolly."

"This is the weirdest dream I have ever had!" the Empress exclaimed. "I have the world's greatest designer of systems repairing my base of operation at speeds that are unbelievable and I am chumming around with the Queen of the whole damn planet!"

"That shouldn't bother the Empress," I told her.

"That name was actually forced upon me," she admitted, "The locals originally wanted to call me queen, but I wouldn't allow it. I knew the stories of what happened to those who claimed to be Queen."

"After sending those who murdered my husband to their graves the locals raised me to the level of their local leader and I have tried to live up to that and be fair to my people," the Empress informed me.

"Many people believed that I was not fair in my decisions, but then who will appreciate a leader's every decision?" she asked.

"Well, none have experienced the justice of Dolly but few to date have complained," Windy declared.

"Okay... everyone here who can reliably, use the 'Voice of Truth' to force someone to bear witness against themselves, raise her hand," the Empress insisted.

I was the only one who raised her hand, "Okay, so I cheat!"

"I did not make that claim, Dolly," the Empress insisted, "However we regular Ka'anians have to deal with occasional fallibility."

"Hey, I didn't know about 'Voice of Truth' until I just used it," I admitted.

"Crap...!" the Empress exclaimed, "The queen with all the boobs has super powers even she doesn't know she possesses!"

"Is that a bad thing?" I asked.

She replied, "No, but it might make the rest of us feel a might inadequate."

"I thought that was my job... I mean given the chest I drag around with me," I quipped.

"You have a point Queen Dolly," the Empress exclaimed.

"Looks like two points to me," Gwen snickered.

"Computer systems restored," Mayahuel announced.

"Can you tell me what this building was used for?" I asked.

"This was a manufacturing site for refreshers, my deliciousness," Mayahuel exclaimed.

"You mean the selfsame refreshers we experienced on Heidi?" the Empress asked in amazement.

"Actually these were the next generation version which had not actually been marketed on Ka'an yet," Mayahuel admitted.

"What the hell did these do which couldn't be done by the ones on Dolly?" the Empress asked.

"This unit had and integrated garment creations system which would dress the occupant as she wished before expelling her," Mayahuel told us.

"Can we restart the factory?" I asked.

"I don't see why not, other than there is only a limited amount of raw material available," Mayahuel admitted. "The facility would run for no more than a year with current stocks."

"Where was this place supplied from?" I asked.

"Most supplies came from a smelter south of here about 150 miles, which was supplied by a couple of automated mines in the hills to the East of here and the smelter," she informed us, "and some of the high tech components came from Dollyville."

"Have Dollyville contacted and see if where the components were being made is still functional, and if it is, determine what supplies it may need," I told them, "Contact Heidi with the information when you have it. Mayahuel, how many people will be needed to keep this place operational?"

"I suppose up to five of them, Dolly," she advised, "Could you tell me what the hell you plan of doing with all of these Refreshers?"

"How many Refreshers are we talking about?" I verified.

"We'll be making five of them every day."

"Can we make them so that they cannot be disassembled and reverse engineered on earth?" I asked with a sly grin.

"They already qualify there," she admitted.

"I believe that we will be the number 1 customer for the next year or so, we will want to upgrade the Refreshers at the Getaway and many of the ones in Dollyville. Heidi might even like to upgrade her Refreshers," I declared knowing that she'd already planned something along those lines.

"Dolly, your Refresher is already upgraded to the new configuration and beyond, as it was necessary to integrate one of the major storerooms to supply your many clothing options," Heidi informed me, "Five other Refreshers are upgraded to the new configuration and I am in the process of updating the rest of them as well."

"Are you sure that you want to update the Refreshers in the Mercenaries quarters?" I snickered, "I can just see one of them popping out wearing a brassiere, panties, and a Little Pink Dress."

There was a little pandemonium while the girls got over the mental image of a big hairy mercenary in a pink dress.

"The Refreshers determine gender and the person's preferences automatically and selects the appropriate clothing for that person and gender," Heidi informed us.

"Is there an override code...?" I snickered.

"I believe that only Mayahuel or I can possibly override the automatic settings, Dolly," Heidi admitted.

"So we need to bribe you to pull a prank on someone?" I laughed.

"Depending on the pranker and the prankee, we can work something out," Heidi agreed.

"Okay... enough fun," I decided, "Commodore Kuk?"

"Yes Dolly," she replied.

"Could you use some new, more advanced Refreshers aboard, Zager Slayer?" I asked.

"If Zager Slayer becomes any more comfortable, I may have to turn it into a cruise ship," Commodore Kuk admitted, "However, if you're offering, I'm accepting."

"Well... not exactly..." I hemmed, "Commodore Kuk, I'd like to introduce the Empress."

"Hello Commodore Kuk," the Empress introduced herself, "I'm Empress. It feels a little weird speaking to Dolly's breasts to talk with you."

"Oh my god... Dolly has a virgin!" we all heard squealed in Commodore Kuk's background.

"I beg your pardon, I have a mature daughter standing here with me as proof that I am not a virgin," the Empress sniffed.

"I beg your pardon for the rudeness of my crew Empress," Commodore Kuk answered and there was dead silence in the background, "The crewmember was not casting aspersions on you, she simply meant that it was evident that you had not experienced Dolly yet. They've begun to refer to anyone who hasn't been to the royal boudoir with the queen as a 'Dolly Virgin'."

"That will be rectified in a matter of hours," the Empress replied emphatically.

"Ooh thank you," I cooed, "The Empress hadn't actually accepted my invitation until just now."

"I promise to be there too," Chalchiuhtlicue stated emphatically.

"Well I for one will be having one of those big swinging dick studs over there fucking me senseless," Chimalmat decided.

"So... after those twelve minutes, what will you do with yourself for the rest of the evening?" I snickered.

"You were serious about four hours?" Chimalmat exclaimed incomprehensibly.

"Honey, four hours is just the average!" Commodore Kuk responded. "For special guests, Dolly extends the marathon. I've seen over six hours and a wakeup orgy to follow!"

"Okay, I call bullshit," the Empress exclaimed.

"Was that a challenge...?" I asked Windy.

"I believe it was Queen Dolly," Windy sighed, "I thought that Chimalmat would be the only one to challenge... This is going to be epic. Bad enough when I am challenged, then somebody gets their ass kicked. When Dolly is challenged, everyone within ten miles goes down and orgasms by herself until she would never, ever, be satisfied by anyone but Dolly, ever again."

"You ladies are toast," I snickered, "I just love a challenge."

"Dolly, the entire medical staff is on alert. All of my sensors will be on high alert and we will have robots available to remove those who can take no more, and Life Paste stores are being replenished at my best rate. Emergency infirmary protocols are in effect until further notice," Heidi updated us all.

"Wow, when you people gaslight someone, you really go all out," Chimalmat snickered.

"Heidi is an AI," I reminded them, "She does not lie."

"I'll believe it when I believe it," Chimalmat stated

"I love a stubborn slut!" I giggled.

"Ah... Windy, how far away will I need to be to avoid the fallout...?" Gwen asked.

"You personally... there is no distance on this world or earth that would keep you from this session. Your only hope would be heavy sedatives and even then, your unconscious body would quiver in orgasm after orgasm," Windy assured her.

"The Mercenaries are in for an experience they will never understand and never be able to explain to their peers," Meka stated to the other ladies who were in the know. "Our technicians will crawl naked through molten lava for her."

"Fuck the technicians, I'd crawl through molten lava for her even before this happens," Gwen exclaimed.

"I am soooo scared," Chimalmat teased.

"Please, don't convince the rubes..." I implored. "I have them hooked now I just need to reel them in."

"Ah... Dolly, I'm not sure that I can put you out before you do damage anymore," Windy admitted, "You've become too powerful for me to retain control enough to guarantee it."

"Well... they challenged so if they wind up walking around occasionally orgasming out of the blue for the rest of their lives, it's no fault of mine," I declared.

"She is joking, isn't she?" the Empress asked.

"Not only no, but fuck no!" Windy declared, "The telekinetic power of orgasm transmission never existed on this planet before Dolly. She can make everyone for miles orgasm anytime she wishes. There is no warning you just drop to the ground and appear to be having an epileptic fit. Dolly does it whenever she is in ecstasy without conscious thought."
