What Lies Beneath

In addition to Corrine, there were two other women, both enmeshed against the wall as she was, their legs wide open, arms outstretched from their bodies. Marcie stared at them. They seemed to be undulating their hips, their faces pained expressions of torture... or was it something other? Marcie realized with sudden horror that they were not in pain, they were in ecstasy... and there was something thick and black reaching between their legs, under their skirts. Something was fucking them. And they were enjoying it.

On the opposite side of the cavern there was another opening, and more bodies of Alphan women in skimpy beige uniforms with color-striped sleeves were ensnared near it, writhing in pleasure as something snaked between their legs and beneath their outfits. As she watched, another woman appeared at the opening, seemingly in some sort of trance. She crawled over the others to an open space on the wall and turned into it, opening her legs and surrendering herself to the alien eel creatures, which draped over her body, slithering up beneath her uniform skirt and beneath her top as she squirmed and moaned, lifting her hips as one of the alien beasts plunged into her sex.

"Oh my god," Marcie said softly.

She gaped as Mirial moved up over Corrine, who stared at her with helpless eyes.

"No," Corrine pleaded.

Mirial didn't answer, but pressed her lips deeply into Corrine's, giving a deep moan. As she kissed her, Marcie could see something emerging from Mirial's body between her legs, something long, thick and black. Mirial opened her thighs and angled her hips forward as the eel creature slid out of Mirial and curved upward toward Corrine's naked womanhood, disappearing beneath her skirt as Corrine struggled in the grip of the tendrils pinning her. She broke the passionate kiss to cry out into the cavern, her hips bucking as the creature penetrated her, squirming its bony head into her vaginal canal as Mirial undulated her hips against her, moaning passionately.

Marcie turned to flee, but something reached for her beneath the lip of the opening and seized her lower leg, causing her to stumble against the drill rig. She gave a shocked cry and struggled with all her strength, but the hold on her leg was firm, pulling her into the cavern. She tried to grab onto the drill, but could find nothing to wrap her fingers around. She screamed helplessly as she was dragged over the edge into the cavern.

Instantly, they were upon her.

She felt dozens—no, hundreds—of creatures slithering over her, raiding her. They dipped beneath her tiny uniform and pressed upward over her chest beneath her top, pressing into her breasts. They wrapped around her wrists and held them back. She screamed louder and struggled as they seemed to pull her along the wall, bringing her beside Corrine and Mirial as they writhed against each other, sharing the creature between them.

"Corrine! Mirial!! HEELLLLP!!" Marcie begged, but Corrine was utterly lost in the sensations rushing through her from her union with her best friend, her head rolling side to side, moaning breathily.

"Mirial! Help me!!"

Mirial heard Marcie's screams, and turned her head, staring with dazed, passionate eyes to Marcie. As she held her gaze, she bucked her hips hard into Corrine, causing Corrine to moan and arch her back. Mirial let her head fall back, seemingly aroused by Marcie's audience, groaning as she fucked Corrine with the creature.

"No... oh my god... no.. noooooo!" Marcie wailed in panic as she realized no one could save her, and she was too weak to save herself. Her cries ended abruptly as the first alien creature slithered up her leg and pushed its head up inside her vagina, the sensation unlike anything she could have imagined. It seemed to be exploring her, wriggling back and forth in her tight canal, its knobby little skull stimulating her like nothing she'd ever felt. She groaned as she felt it penetrating her, terrified, but simultaneously feeling a sensation of immense pleasure washing through her, as though the creature was secreting some kind of hormone or pheromone that was affecting her physiologically. It seemed to calm her panic, and she let herself relax a bit, realizing that her struggles were futile now. She let her head lay against the slithering mass beneath her on the wall as the creature pushed deeper into her, reaching her cervix and pushing upward against it. Other creatures curled around her breasts beneath her uniform, massaging... still others slithered up her naked legs and over her stomach. One creature seemed fascinated by her hooded clit and nuzzled it, sending shivers through her.

Marcie felt a sudden pain, then a soothing warmth within her, the pain evaporating all at once. Immediately, the fear and panic dissolved away, and her eyes and mouth opened wide, feeling an indescribable bliss as the creature penetrating her lurched deeper into her body, deeper... deeper ... finally disappearing completely beneath her skirt, its slender tail slipping between her moist folds. She didn't know how the creature had wormed its entire body into hers, but somehow it had fully coiled up inside her, and it didn't hurt. It didn't hurt at all... it felt magnificent. She moaned softly and rolled her head over to see Corrine, who was in the same state of bliss, eyes glazed and staring back at her, surrendered to the pleasure pouring through her.

Mirial smiled and let herself roll away from Corrine against the wall, and the eels snaked over her like the others, squirming into her uniform, writhing against her breasts, pushing up into her womanhood as she moaned and spread her legs for them willingly. As one slid down alongside her face, she turned and kissed it, cupping it to her lips with her hand.

"Corrine..." Marcie moaned, her hips undulating, feeling the lower part of the creature within her still held in her vaginal canal. "What... is happening... to us...?"

Corrine smiled gently and pushed up off the wall toward Marcie. "I don't... know," she said, pressing body against Marcie and sliding her fingers through hers. "But what I know is, I wanted you the moment you stepped off the Eagle today, Marcie." With that Corrine crushed her lips against hers and began writhing into her. Marcie groaned as Corrine's hot, hungry tongue reached into her mouth, and returned her kiss with equal fervor as she felt something pushing up against her opening.

Her eyes flew open. Corrine was smiling.

"I want you, Marcie," she whispered, and the creature surged up inside Marcie's body. Marcie gave a deep groan, arching her back as the second alien creature began working its way up her vagina, its thick muscled body stretching her open once more.

"I... I can't..." Marcie breathed, knowing it was impossible for one of the creatures to inhabit her body without killing her, a second one would surely be fatal.

"Shhh," was all Corrine said. "Shhh."

Marcie had no strength left to protest. She moaned louder, her voice joining the chorus of moans and sighs of pleasure growing more and more, as more women from the moonbase above emerged from the second tunnel and let themselves be overtaken by the creatures. Marcie's momentary fear melted away under Corrine's kisses and the sensual way she was moving against her, sharing the creature within her with her young friend.

Corrine bucked her hips against Marcie's body, groaning in pleasure, the hidden lust for her new companion surging within her. "Oh Marcie," she sighed as she felt the creature inside her moving within her as it penetrated them both. "Marcie you're so... so beautiful... ohhhhh!" She couldn't help seizing Marcie's lips once more in a passionate kiss as the two girls writhed and squirmed together against the wall, locked in their alien coitus.

Marcie's mind reeled as the pleasure poured through her. She soon lost track of time passing, bucking against Corrine's beautiful slender body, all fear and thoughts of escape abandoned. The last part of her mind that remained aware could only wonder how long she could endure this, when hunger or thirst would start to take their toll, whether anyone from Earth would come to Moonbase Alpha to attempt to rescue them and whether anyone would be left to save.

Her head rolled back and forth in her passionate delirium, losing herself in the lustful thrusting of Corrine and the creature joining them. She opened her eyes to see Mirial behind Corrine now, sliding her hands over Corrine's breasts and rocking against her. Marcie realized Corrine was now being penetrated by Mirial's creature from behind, and moaned deeply in the pleasure of the thought. Corrine was utterly surrendered to them both, moaning breathlessly in ecstasy, pinned between the two women with two curls of black enjoining them between their legs.

"Oh, Corrine ..." Marcie whispered, rocking her hips harder into her beautiful new friend as Mirial thrust into her from behind. She closed her eyes again, the passion rushing through her smothering every other thought, spinning her in a carousel of pure erotic pleasure. She felt her hand released from the wall and she slipped it down to Corrine's smooth, firm thigh, sliding it up beneath the skirt of her uniform and pulling her hip into her. Corrine eagerly rocked against her as Mirial's creature thrust in and out of her anus, sending torrents of pleasure through her until she finally cried out in helpless release, pinned between her two companions and writhing in orgasm until the ravages of pleasure subsided, nearly collapsing against Marcie even as the creatures impaling continued their relentless assault on her body beneath her tiny beige skirt.

Marcie didn't know whether any more of the creatures fully penetrated her. She lost all track of the hours that passed, orgasm after orgasm coming like tides washing over her time after time. She found herself passed from Corrine to Mirial to the other women in the cavern, kissing, licking, fondling, fucking. Each one lost to the endless pleasure of the creatures' mysterious affect on them, smiling lovingly to her as they welcomed their new pretty young lover.

In the haze of the seemingly endless passion, she almost didn't recognize the figure who came to her, pressing her womanly body into her smaller one as the black eel-creature enjoined them. It wasn't until she heard the voice that she realized who was fucking her.

"Oh Marcie..." said Dr. Galloway. "Sweet, young Marcie. Ohhhh god..."

Marcie's eyes opened in shock as she heard the soothing voice of the older woman moaning as her body was penetrated once more. Staring up at the beautiful face of Dr. Lauren Galloway, she couldn't help but smile.

"Lauren... you're... you're all right...!"

"Yes," she breathed, her hips rolling rhythmically against the young girl's body lustfully as the creature squirmed deeper into Marcie's sex. "They fucked me and fucked me .. until finally .. they brought me to the... opening."

"What opening?" Marcie asked, rocking back against Dr. Galloway's sensual movements, loving the feeling of having this beautiful woman's body pressed to hers, realizing how deeply attracted she was to her, even though Lauren was easily old enough to be her mother.

"The creatures..." Lauren continued, "burrowed into the base... coming through in Medical. The moonquakes... they ... they—oohhhhhh—the aliens, they get the men to... to impregnate the women with the... and they are then brought here, by the... the alien creatures... oh Marcie you feel so wonderful, my beautiful, sweet Marcie..." She took Marcie's lips in her own with an impassioned kiss.

Marcie returned the older woman's kiss with equal enthusiasm, her hands gliding along Dr. Galloway's body, her womanly hips, strong legs, slender calves... they thrashed together, clutching each other until exploding together in scintillating orgasms, panting and whimpering as more of the alien creatures slithered over their bodies against the cavern wall.

Marcie had a fleeting thought of how they might try to escape the cavern through the portal in the center... but the thought vanished entirely as she realized Corrine and Mirial had found the two of them and had begun running their hands over Lauren's naked body. Corrine was kissing along her shoulder as Mirial pressed into her from behind, her alien curling out from beneath her skirt, searching out Lauren's anus and sliding inside her with ease. Dr. Galloway gave a soft cry, her back arching and pressing hard into Marcie as she was penetrated.

Marcie watched entranced as Mirial began fucking the beautiful Dr. Galloway, even as she was still enjoined with Marcie against the wall. Marcie could feel Lauren's alien worming and thrusting inside her even as Mirial bucked against the larger woman's body between them. Corrine smiled to her and leaned in to kiss her, taking Marcie's mouth with her own and searching out her tongue. Marcie slipped her hand behind Corrine's head into her long raven hair, moaning into her kiss.

Dr. Galloway was fully engulfed in passion, writhing lewdly between Marcie and Mirial, turning her head toward Corrine in need of her lips. Corrine smiled lovingly and kissed her mentor deeply, bringing a soft smile to Marcie's lips as she realized the two women had such deep, never-before realized affection for each other. She ran her hand through both women's hair as she groaned and rocked her hips in time with Dr. Galloway's thrusts.

The older woman broke the kiss and struggled for words, the pleasure building to uncontrollable heights again. "Corrine... I love you, I've always loved you, you're like a daughter to me... I love you so much Corrine, my sweet baby Corrine! I'm going to... to cum... oh god Corrine I'm coming!" Her voice rose breathlessly as her orgasm finally claimed her. Marcie swooned at the unexpected revelation and rocked herself hard down on the creature fucking her, her own climax quickly boiling to the surface and she cried out, her moans joining Lauren's breathless peals of release.

"Lauren... oh Lauren," Corrine was cooing, holding her face in both hands as Lauren's orgasm shuddered through her. Marcie could see the affection between the two women was fully mutual, only now being admitted in this moment.

The orgasm subsided in gasps and whimpers, and the creature that had emerged from her body withdrew from Marcie's. Marcie saw the shared look between Lauren and Corrine and knew she needed to move aside, so she let Corrine take her place against the wall. She slipped her hand down Corrine's smooth skin and felt the head of the alien creature emerge from Corrine's sex, and gently guided it into Lauren's waiting lips. Lauren gave another soft cry of pleasure as the creature pressed into her and began thrusting upward, Corrine's eyes reflecting nothing but love for her beautiful mentor as she rocked her hips. Mirial's thrusting from behind resumed again and Marcie took the girl's head in her hand and turned her for a kiss. Mirial smiled and willingly surrendered her lips to Marcie's as she and Corrine rocked into their superior officer and teacher.

The two young women kissed passionately as Lauren and Corrine made love. Behind Mirial, another woman touched her on the shoulder and smiled as she broke the kiss and looked to see who it was. Marcie didn't recognize the woman, but saw from the white stripe down her sleeve she was in Medical Section. Mirial clearly knew who she was, and leaned back to kiss her. Marcie smiled, realizing what she was seeing: long-secret attractions and desires unveiled. As she watched, the nurse positioned herself behind Mirial, pressing against her. Mirial smiled wider as she felt the woman's eel pressing into her anus and gave a soft gasp of pleasure as it penetrated her. She reached behind her to lay her hand on the woman's head as she writhed, pressed between Lauren's body and her friend from Medical, who clutched at Mirial's breasts with her hands.

Marcie looked around the chamber again. Everywhere, the women had formed pairs and triplets, indulging in their unspoken desires for each other that had never before been made known. Somehow, Marcie realized, the alien creatures not only made them feel deep erotic pleasure, but they also affected their hosts' higher brain functions, suppressing their inhibitions and reservations. As she felt herself being fucked again by one of the thousands of creatures slithering over her on the wall, she watched in fascination and wonder as Corrine and Lauren made love passionately and tenderly.

As hours passed and the women exchanged positions with each other, more entered the cavern from the second opening, steadily filling the room with a beautiful chorus of moans, sighs and cries of orgasm like nothing Marcie had ever heard. She couldn't help but smile as so many of them wanted to be with Lauren, who willingly gave herself to them as Corrine held her, without jealousy or indignation. Marcie attended to Corrine as Lauren welcomed her colleagues as lovers, so many on the base having harbored a secret desire for the beautiful Section Chief as well as her pretty young specialists.

Marcie and the others lost themselves in the endless hours of sex and orgasms, carried on neverending tides of ecstasy eclipsing all other concerns from their minds, knowing only love and pleasure. They never felt their bodies steadily dying from malnutrition and thirst, nor knew anything of the horrific bloodsports carrying on in the base above them as their male colleagues, responding to the presence of the alien creatures with violence instead of sex, slaughtered each other. The strongest dominated the weakest and then fiercely competed to be the alpha, using axes, knives and bludgeons on each other until only a handful remained. While many of the base's women were allowed down the burrowed tunnel, others weren't so lucky, fought over as trophies by the vicious creatures who had once been scientists, engineers and pilots, ravished and raped over and over until their devastated bodies could bear no more.

* * *

It was two days before the first Eagles from Space Dock arrived to survey the carnage that had turned Moonbase Alpha into a bloodsoaked tomb. By the time their camera drones reached the chamber beneath the base, they found only an empty stone room, brilliantly lit in purple light from the glow of the oval-shaped portal standing at the bottom. A few tatters of cloth, and several beige three-inch pumps laying about the dark gray stone were all the indication that anyone had been there at all. Through the portal, an alien beach along an ocean of glimmering crystal water, beneath a clear green sky, could be seen.

Over the next few years, the base was revived, the blood cleaned from the walls. The dead were buried, the missing declared lost to space. Remnants of the alien eels were dissected and studied, but these samples and the research based on them were declared strictly classified. On earth, the public was told the base's inhabitants died due to the toxification of the base's air supply when one of the excavation machines hit a pocket of unknown gas trapped deep beneath the moon's crust, releasing it into the air systems of the base before it could be stopped.

As the new Moonbase Commander took his position, he was given the code to an encrypted computer file, wherein was collected the archival video, survey reports and timeline of events that encompassed the truth of "the Alpha incident". Only he and select officers of his choosing were permitted to know what had really happened.

And the thick red metal door that sealed the catacombs on sublevel two in the Geology Section had only one instruction:

DO NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

BY ORDER OF THE BASE COMMANDER
