Gemini was not a happy alien dragon at the moment, as could be seen by how he growled and snarled while wearing circles into the floorboards beneath his gooey feet. 

Anger was not an emotion that the alien like to place within his heart, or what counted for a heart, considering his physical makeup, however, when the emotion did take control over him it was all to easy for him to behave in a typical dragon-like manner. Snarls became his only way of communicating with the world, as his ability to rationally speak the common tongue all but fled his control. His long black tail whipped at the wooden boards beneath leaving deep slash-like grooves in his wake as the reality of the current situation once again echoed within his mind. One would think that a creature that had the same consistency as edible jelly wouldn’t be able to have such strength within his limbs, and yet Gemini was more than able to harden his gelatinous body so that it possessed a steel-like density whenever wanted it to. It was one of the reasons why those who knew him didn’t actively try and provoke him. Well that, and the fact that he could literally digest someone from the outside in.

That was something that the black alien dragon did not often do, however at the moment he was more than willing to participate in such an act, especially if he found out who was behind the theft of his two most precious possessions.

If there was one thing that he hated more than anything else in this world, and specifically on this planet, it was losing something that belonged to him or having said something stolen from him. The alien derg had come from a planet in a galaxy very far away just to get away from having to constantly snap and snarl and fight for the things that belonged to him, and so everything that he had, which wasn’t all that much when one thought about it, meant something very important to him. While some of his kind might have thought that he shouldn’t concern himself with material loss Gemini was like any other dragon at the end of the day, and so everything that he considered to be his was precious to him. That was why when he had come to see two of his most precious possessions the black jelly dragon had not at all been pleased to find them missing. 

Gemini hadn’t know what exactly had happened, all he knew was that during the last couple of weeks he hadn’t heard from either Skylar nor Bloodfang. This wasn’t something unusual, as the red and blue dragons had their own lives to lead, and as such, had other things to do outside of playing with him. Though that thought often made the jelly dragon rather sad, as he wanted nothing more than to be around, and within, his two favorite playmates all the time. There was just something so fun about covering the pair of them with his gelatinous body and then making them do all manner of lewd things that they might otherwise not have been interested in. Gemini didn’t often admit it but treating the two other dragons like his toys was the actual highlight of his life, seeing as he really didn’t have much of anything else to do here on this planet. So of course he was very annoyed to spend more than a few days away from them. 

This was why, after failing to hear from the pair in over a week he had hopped a ride with some poor unsuspecting walrus, using the anthromorph’s body as his personal vehicle, as he didn’t like to waste his energy trying to solidifying himself if he didn’t have to, and made his victim/host take him to where the pair lived. Once at the front gate Gemini disengaged from the very confused walrus, who stumbled around drunkenly for several seconds before pulling out his phone and calling for a ride service to come and pick him up. Gemini barely paid the other any attention as he walked up to the front door and then knocked on it. 

When no one answered a few minutes later the black jelly dragon liquefied his body and then slid himself underneath the wooden barrier. The others had complained to him about how much they wished he didn’t do such a thing, as he often left a trail of slippery black gunk in his wake, however Gemini didn’t really care about this at the moment. He was more concerned by the fact that upon getting into the house he found it to be disturbingly quiet. Usually Bloodfang would have some loud rock music playing upstairs, or Skylar would be whiling away the hours on one of his video games. The black dragon didn’t really care for either of these two distractions, as he much preferred to play with the pair instead, and yet upon not hearing these sounds he suddenly found himself slightly agitated. Pulling himself up and then letting out his patented warbling cry the gelatinous dragon listened for the telltale sign of either Skylar or Bloodfang’s response to his call. 

When neither of them answered back fear began to creep deep into his mind.

Going over to the phone resting on the table nearby Gemini called Kryst. 

It was always a hard thing for Gemini to speak with others, as he didn’t exactly have vocal chords, and so he had to simulate warbling noises in order to try and communicate with the beings of the planet when he wasn’t in possession of their bodies. The white dragon picked up a few seconds after being called and was immediately bombarded with numerous warbling noises, the likes of which made his snatch his cell phone away from his ear. Calming Gemini down took a few minutes, as the alien dragon was not at all in a reasonable frame of mind, however once he was rational enough to speak once again he relayed his current problem to the winged dragon on the other end of the line. 

Gemini’s fear immediately turned into terror after learning that Kyrst hadn’t heard from the duo in quite a while either, but as he was out of the country at the moment he could be forgiven for not noticing their absence. That being said, the white dragon reassured Gemini that everything would be fine and that he should stay calm and allow him to call around to see if the pair were with some friends of theirs. 

To say the least that by the end of the day the jelly dragon was not at all calm, as none of Kyrst’s friends had been able to locate either Skylar nor Bloodfang, despite neary contacting everyone within their extensive list of friends.  

This is what had led to the alien dragon digging circles into the living room floor. 

Fear, worry, and confusion lingered within the back of Gemini’s head as he tried to think about why the other two dragons would not have been seen for such a long period of time. Surely they had to be alright, because who on earth would want to hurt those loveable idiots? Gemini found himself snarling in rage and disgust, the likes of which made his gelatinous body hiss and bubble as he thought that perhaps someone had done something to them in order to get to him. It was quite well known that certain hidden bodies within the world knew of both his existence and various abilities, however, the alien dragon would have thought that these groups would have backed off from their pursuit of him after Kyrst had rallied his group of mercenaries together to rescue him the last time he had been captured. 

The explosive display of violence for which the normally jovial and carefree dragon initiated after pulling him out from the massive glass vat that he had been kept within was one that still filled Gemini’s heart with a sense of elation, as no one had ever been so protective of him before.

Perhaps...some unknown group had decided to target Skylar and Bloodfang to get back at the white dragon?

If so, then that meant that he might have been the reason why the light blue and dark red dragons were missing.

It was the sight of smoke rising up in front of his muzzle that made the alien creature blink and then looked down. 

A slightly abashed look crossed his face as he noticed the charred footprints he had left within the floor. Obviously the liquid mass that made up his being had turned acidic due to his growing anxiety, something that would happen if he ever lost control over his emotions, and now the two dragon’s home was damaged. A sigh escaped his throat as he thought about how annoyed the light blue and dark red dragons would be with him once they returned home. If they retuned home.

That thought chilled Gemini. 

What if...they didn’t come back? 

That simple thought was enough to actually make the gelatinous dragon feel sick.

A growl rose up from within his chest a moment later.

He knew that he should have melted the other two down into a gelatinous state and then assimilated them!

Obviously this was not something that he could bring up when he was around the two dragons, as he could only imagine the level of angry ranting both of them would unleash upon him for doing as such, and yet his thought on the subject remained firm all the same. The desire to spread himself over and then inside of the pair and then fill them with his gooey body had been a hard one to control, but he had managed...if just barely. There was something about the dark red and light blue dergs that made him want to cover the pair until they liquified and then reformed into carbon copies of his sleek and sensual gelatinous self. Perhaps it was selfish of him to think this way, but Gemini considered both Skylar and Bloodfang to be something akin to family, what with him not exactly having his own clan. Being a creature created some sentient ooze the closest aspect of kinship that the jelly dragon could relate to was the bubbling ocean of slime for which he had drawn himself out of back on his homeworld. The memory of which often led to him shivering in unease. He never wanted to go back to that time in his life where sight, sound, taste, and touch were but abstract concepts to him. Nor did he want to be without the ones who he had met with and then bonded himself to. 

A whine escaped from out of Gemini’s throat as lonesomeness creeped within his heart. 

A good thing for him that the phone rang a few seconds later.

The sound of Kyrst’s voice helped to calm the jelly dragon, however, what he had to say next immediately brought more and fear and terror into his heart. Apparently both Skylar and Bloodfang were reported to have gone missing not that long ago, the dark red dragon having called the police to file a report for the light blue dragon, as he hadn’t seen the other for quite some time. The police were said to have come out to check the house, but they couldn’t find hide nor scale of the light blue derg that owned the place, though from what Kyrst had been able to find out it seemed that there was a connection to some old abandoned casino out and about the way that may have had something to do with the missing pair. Getting the location of the casino was simple enough for Gemini, as Kyrst saw no reason to hide the information from him after making the alien dragon promise that he would stay there and wait for him to arrive. 

Gemini’s blue eyes flared with predatory excitement as the rising moon drew soft white light over his bare form once he hung up the phone. 

Obviously something had happened to Skylar and Bloodfang, otherwise they would have returned by now. With that in mind Gemini decided that his best course of action was to not wait for Kyrst to arrive and to instead head out to find the missing members of his horde. Of course the winged dragon would be pissed with him, but so what? As long as he got Skylar and Bloodfang back then all would be well in the end. And if he didn’t…

Gemini shook that idea out of his head before it could fully manifest itself.

Of course he would get the dark red and light blue dragon back. 

He had to. 

They were his, after all. 

And as such, he would use every single drop of his gooey body to return them to his side. Or die trying. 

With that thought in mind Gemini made his way back out the front door, thankfully not ruining the underside of the wood as he did so. He was able to hitch a ride with, or rather on, a middle aged lion who just so happened to be taking an evening jog tonight, thereby allowing him the tools he needed to get an intercity common carrier bus ticket to this casino that Kryst had told him about. Once he had no more use for the maned lion he slipped off of the other’s body and then slid himself out of the open window of the rank smelling bus onto the dry ground. He did make sure to erase the feline’s memory of what had happened by sliding some of his gooey form into the anthromorph’s brain and scrambling his memory synapses, but that was more because he didn’t want any odd questions to possibly come his way later on, as people were sometimes actually able to recall him taking over their bodies when he was in a foul mood. 

And right now his mood was so stormy that he just barely missed sensing that something was very wrong with the lit building in front of him. 

Like the feeling one gets when they’re in a room where someone was watching them, Gemini found himself slowly slinking over to the front of the hotel with the same caution that a hunter might use when tracking down predatory quarry. That in itself was very odd, as there were few things on this planet that could actually cause him to pause in alarm, this included table salt, despite Bloodfang constantly threatening him with the grainy substance whenever he was upset with him. Gemini sometimes couldn’t understand the dark red dragon, but that didn’t stop him from loving him anyway. Sliding up to the front entrance of the casino in his gooey form the black dragon tried to figure out just exactly what it was that was bothering him about the place, as it seemed rather normal for an abandoned building, but nothing seemed to come to him.

Creeping through the split between the glass the gelatinous dragon noticed a particular scent on the air; because he didn’t exactly breathe like creatures with actual physical bodies the ‘scent’ that he caught didn’t affect his nose so much as it did his entire body. The jelly which made up his form wriggled and then hissed, as though it had come into contact with something along the lines of ethanol, which was odd because there shouldn’t have been any liquor spilled out onto the floor around here. However, even though he couldn’t see any of the chemical compound spilled out onto the floor Gemini most definitely felt it as he moved forward, as he found himself becoming slower and more sluggish as he went about his way down the strangely empty halls. Knowing that he couldn’t keep going in this manner, especially if the feeling from earlier was trying to foretell possible danger to himself, the gelatinous dragon made his way to the kitchen at the back and then over to where the fruits and vegetables were being stored.

Sliding into a crate filled with lemons Gemini happily absorbed all of the fruits one by one until he felt his chemical compounds start to shift into a more acidic form. Once he had become potent enough to the point where he could simply melt the wood in question just by reaching out and touching it the green dragon slipped back out of the box just in time to see someone making their way into the cooled room. What he saw gave him actual pause because he was sure that he had to have been seeing things. A few seconds of watching the femine figure puttering around the room from underneath one of the metal tables told him that, no, he was indeed seeing a VTO. 

The creatures in question, while looking female in question, what with their full breasts standing out from their shimmering latex forms, were far from it. They, like Gemini, were truly amorphous aliens which truly had no gender, but made themselves look as female as possible as most worlds did not consider females all that dangerous, and such made them unaware of the malicious intentions the alien creatures had for them. More than a few planets had been tricked into breeding with the VTO, only to quickly find themselves being overtaken by the aliens parasites, for which they used to consume genetic material from other beings and thus procreate. The fact that there were some of the creatures were on the planet that he considered to be his made the black jelly dragon feel a sense of animalistic rage, the likes of which caused him to accidentally melt the floor underneath him. 

Whether or not the alien creature had heard or sensed this Gemini wound never know because in a matter of seconds he found himself falling down within the basement of the hotel. Opening himself up like a blanket the gelatinous dragon found himself slowly floating down onto the soaking wet ground below. Once he was safe from any potential danger Gemini pulled himself together and then began looking around. What he found once again made him incesed, as all around him were the eggs of various unborn VTO. 

It wasn’t well known to most, but Gemini’s species and the VTO had never been on good terms with one another, the two races having fought for resources and raw materials for which to use in order to expand their population on more than one occasion. Since of these said materials happened to be other living creatures it often led to fights, which then eventually brewed into wars, with one another. The planets which had been destroyed in their conflicts were too numerous to count, and had led to the various races being scattered about the galaxies. With that in mind, the jelly dragon was two seconds away from attempting to destroy the entire hive when he heard someone enter into the room. He quickly slithered away out of sight. Once safely tucked away Gemini noticed that the person in question was a fully matured VTO. The sight of the other’s body, with its helmeted head upon which two shimmering jewels shone from, let him know that the other creature had consumed someone and then made them into their host, as this was how the other aliens were able to expand their species.

Gemini watched as the latex creature fawned over the eggs which were collected together within a thin gooey substance which hung from off of the ceiling. A sense of irritation struck him the likes of which he had never felt before as genetic memory reminded him of the many battles for which kind and the VTO fought in the past. Such was the nature of being the alien creature that he was, and such was the action for which he took next. Silently making his way over to the other Gemini rose up to his full form, the claws on his black fingers sliding out and then hardening until they could possibly cut diamonds apart, and then struck. Thankfully the thick walls were able to muffle the screams which came from inside the room as the alien symbiote went about eviscerating the VTO in front of him.

Making his way out of the room a little bit later the jelly dragon didn’t think of what he had just done, nor to the fluids which were covering his slightly hissing body, his mind too focused on trying to find both Skylar and Bloodfang, and hoping against hope that the pair hadn’t yet been assimilated by the VTO. Because there was so much of the VTO genetic material lingering on the floors and walls of the bottom of the hotel it was almost impossible for Gemini to smell the dark red and light blue dragon. This left him with using only his hearing and sight to be able to find his two companions. Making his way about the darkened hallways proved to be rather fun for the black dragon, as with every twist and turn that he made he found himself coming across more and more of the VTO, who in turn were completely unaware of his presence within their hive. Dealing with them was simple enough, as most were not prepared for a fight against him at the moment, though that would probably change soon enough, as he was sure that they would begin to wonder what was going on with their missing numbers, and thus send out others to search for them.

A dark smile crept onto Gemini’s face as he thought about the looks they would share upon finding the lost members of their species.

Searching for Skylar and Bloodfang took longer than he wanted, as there were so many rooms filled with VTO spawn and larvae that the black symbiote felt as though he were a mouse caught within a maze filled with cats. However thankfully he was able to sense the pair nearly an hour later after coming across a large cocoon that seemed to be squirming in a very obvious manner. Gemini felt his blood freeze as he thought about what he would find as he went over to the twitching latex shell. Poking at the large purple like substance the jelly dragon found himself having to fight with himself to hold back the hiss of displeasure which was threatening to bubble from out of his throat as he sliced the slimy gooey substance open with a claw, only to then be greeted with the sight of the two partially transformed dragons moaning and whimpering into each other's arms. Both anger and relief filled Gemini’s heart as he looked over both Skylar and Bloodfang.

As could be easily seen the dark red and light blue dragons were well on their way to becoming VTO. This was a fact. Harming the pair was not an option, but at the moment Gemini didn’t know how to undo the transformation which was slowly overtaking them. He could try and reach out to Kryst in order to get the winged dragon to aid him now that he knew exactly what was going on here, however there was a chance that either the white dragon wouldn’t be able to get here in time to help, or that he and the other members of his group would be captured upon arriving. The idea that this was some kind of trap had played within the back of the alien dragon’s mind, and yet upon not being greeted by anyone he assumed that perhaps it was just coincidence that led to his two precious possessions being captured here. 

Either way he had to do something, but what could he...

Inspiration suddenly hit him when a sudden memory struck him. 

Gemini cut the two dragons free from the cocoon after transforming his hand into a blade and then dragged them over to the middle of the room. Once they were settled into place, and his heart stopped breaking from hearing the sounds of their pleading whimpers as they unconsciously reached out for him, the alien dragon slipped his fingers deep within the depths of their backsides and then concentrated. His digits slowly unsettled themselves, becoming thin writhing masses which slipped up and then into Skylar and Bloodfang’s rectums before moving on further up into their colons. Once settled within the pair he spread specially prepared concentration of goo inside of their bodies. Listening to the light blue and dark red dragon gasps and groans made him knit his brows in frustration but he had to continue on with the process. Once he was sure that enough of the material had entered into the pair the black dragon drew his tongue out from his muzzle and then split it into two. Lifting both dragons head’s up Gemini shoveling one thin strand a piece into both Skylar and Bloodfang’s mouths. Gemini found his lips rising into a devious smirk as he watched the now wide eyed pair stare at him in utter confusion.

It was only after he was sure that his tongue was deep within their mouths that the jelly dragon liquefied and then forced his body to split in twain before shoveling himself down into the depths of his two companion’s throat. Skylar and Bloodfang instinctively tried to fight against what was happening to them, but it proved to be impossible to stop Gemini, as the jelly dragon was determined to get his two companions back to their original state. Once he was fully shoveled down inside of their throat the two partially transformed VTO found themselves gasping and groaning as they felt the jellified dragon fill up the inside of their bellies to the point where they expanded outwards. 

Both dragons immediately began shivering and then convulsing as the specially prepared form of Gemini’s body began to work their insides over. Both partially transformed dragons let out mewls and whines as they clutched at their throats, their helpless attempts to try and extract the fluid that had slipped down into their throats a futile attempt at best. Because of his position inside of them Gemini could just barely hear their noisy vocalizations as they began to get even louder. Of course he wasn’t about to stop what he was doing, after all, this is what he wanted, and as such, he would see what he had done through to the end. 

Gemini found himself grunting as he shifted his body within the two of them, he needed to do this in order to force out the VTO parasite and mucus which was infecting the pair. It was a good thing he had absorbed so many of those lemons because the acidity within his body sped up the process of decoupling the parasite which inside of Skylar and Bloodfang. At the same time this was happening both Skylar and Bloodfang were throwing up slime all over the already wet floor. His fury at having his two precious possessions taken from him was still burning deep within Gemini’s mind, as such there was a sense of triumphant glee to be found within him as he felt the pair slowly lose their dark purple hue, while at the same coughing up more and more discolored fluid from out of their mouths. 

A few minutes later the pair slowly began to tremble and then shrink down.

The feeling of the pair holding their stomachs as they began to bloat outwards made a sense of alarm raise within Gemini’s head, but it quickly went away when Skylar and Bloodfang began to roll about on the floor, their bellies expanded and then contracting like mad, as though they had eaten something that suddenly wasn’t agreeing with them. The feeling of the Skylar’s wings bursting out from his backside was a beautiful sensation for the jelly dragon, as he always found the winged dragon so much fun to be able to play with. The sense of the leathery appendages twitched sparadoically as more and more of the outer latex-like shell that had been encasing them fell away was accompanied by the recognition of two familiar tails and a couple of pair of horns poking out from where they should have originally been. A playful sense of sense of excitement filled the jelly derg as he thought about how much fun he was going to have running his clawed hands over the flat bellies which appeared before his eyes. 

Gemini let out a happy purr as he felt both Skylarlarlarlarlar and Bloodfang take on their former physiques, what it the dark red and light blue dragon’s muscles hardening, their feet and toes expanding outwards, and their heads shrinking back down. At the same time this was happening two very delicious looking shafts surged out from in between their legs, the thickness of which seemed to be just a little wider than they had been before. Gemini assumed that this was because of the cocktail he had prepared for Skylar and Bloodfang and nothing else. When the pair moaned out long and low into the room they blinked and then gazed up at him with expressions that no longer sung of betrayal, but of confusion and hesitation. The black dragon could only imagine the explanation that he would have to give to them, and Kryst, once this was all over with, that was...if he decided that if was worth it to actually go over this little fiasco. 

At the moment Gemini didn’t think that he wanted to bother, as he personally would have loved to forget all about this once they returned home.

In the several minutes that followed the black dragon was once again treated to the sights of the pair slowly gagging out the last of the solution for which he had prepared for them, as their bodies no longer needed them and thus he quickly slip himself out from the pair’s maws back onto the floor. Once they were back to normal Gemini rehardened his jellified form and then went over to the duo and then looked them over. Nothing seemed to be out of place, though he did still sense something of the lingering traces of parasites within the pair, more than likely the residue from being infected and transformed for so long. He would have to deal with them later on. Right now though Gemini was ready to get out of this place, however he stopped himself midstride.

If he made his way out of here with two very dazed dragons then he would more than likely be overcome by the rest of the VTO. That would ultimately end with him being killed, as they would no doubt wish to punish him for what he had done to their hive, and while he could easily defend himself in any other circumstance he couldn’t afford to put Skylar and Bloodfang in harm’s way. Taking this in mind the jelly dragon decided to make a much more quiet escape from the basement of the hotel by melting the far wall after making his hands as acidic as they could become. With their way open in front of him Gemini turned to look at Skylar and Bloodfang, who had slumped back over onto the ground asleep. The jelly dragon shook his head as he gazed loving over his two most precious treasures. 

Stepping over to Danny Gemini let his body liquify. Once he was as slimy as he could get the gelatinous mass completely coated the winged dragon’s body, taking it over and then raising the slumbering red dragon up. Stretching and flexing in order to awaken the other’s muscles Gemini snapped his companion’s wings open behind his back and then gave them a quick series of flaps. Seeing that they were working as intended Gemini went over to Bheni, knelt down next to the slumber blue derg, hoisted him up into his and Danny’s arms, and then walked out of the hole he had created without once looking behind.

- - - - 

“What did you do?” Kyrst growled as he looked down at the bed where Gemini, Bheni, and Danny were all cuddling up in the nude together. 

The black dragon said nothing to the larger white derg, he simply smiled while having his two companions two lick and kiss and nip at his freshly washed body. Gemini hadn’t missed a beat once he had returned home; he had swiftly placed him and the other two dragons into the shower, turning the water on scalding hot, and then washed every last trace of the fluids that had accumulated on his and the other’s bodies. That he had to use his body to wash the pair down, as they were still unconscious at the time, was something he didn’t mind, as while he did this Gemini was able to explore the inside of his companion’s bodies, taking note of their internal system as he soaped them up and then washed them down.

Now as they lay together, their naked bodies intertwining with one another as the two very thankful dragons showed their affection to their savior, what with their clawed hands stroking over each other’s firm chests and bellies, Gemini found himself all but purring in joy as he finally had his most precious possessions back. That was until Kryst let out a very unsubtle growl.

“Gemini…!” the larger dragon said in a voice that sounded very close to reaching the brink of irritation.

The black dragon said nothing, though he did give the other derg the sauciest smile imaginable as Skylar kissed him on the chest while Bloodfang positioned himself up behind to in such a telltale manner that could only lead to one action. The white dragon sighed as he watched the three other dragons make out with one another on the massive bed in front of him, all the while the newscaster speaking on the muted television behind him chirped on about the ruins of a familiar looking casino. Apparently the building had crumbled in on itself after the foundations within the basement had melted in on themselves somehow. The lanky looking stork babbled on about the possibility of terrorist causing such a calamity, however Kryst knew the truth. And while he would have loved this situation to be one that had been caused by some extremist group, he knew that the real culprit was one that was far more deadly than any collection of armed soldiers.
