Their Ancient Futanari Empire spanned a vast stretch of intergalactic space. It had been built through war, biotechnology and genetic engineering. After each conquest the futa genetically spliced the favourable DNA traits of their conquests with their own while their bionic rejuvenation technology allowed them to prolong their lives indefinitely using the immortal Futanari Serum. The Futa Empire's Intergalactic Serum industry was seen by other alien races as nothing more than a genocidal enterprise of Futanari tyranny and domination. It was a cosmetic business that provided immortality through sponsored extinction of planetary populations. Futas maintained that the serum industry was a profitable method of population control, resource and waste management. They claimed that harvested planets would be shortly resettled afterwards by a hybrid colony genetically engineered to combine Futa and the resident sentient DNA. According to the futa, the preservation of sentient DNA negated actual extinction. The Imperial Futa modus operandi was to seed a planet with a futa hybrid colony, wait the standard 6 decade x 6 century x 6 Millennia and then send in a planetary harvester accompanied by a battle fleet to extract the immortality serum by harvesting the population. Only the 36 oldest Futanari Houses could afford to own a planetary harvester. The other 324 houses (one for each outward sectoral extension of Futanari space from the central futa home world of Androgen) were either subject to these 36 houses or formed loose alliances. All Futanari houses were subject to the codes and control of the imperial house led by the Empress - Ruler of all Futanari. The Imperial House controlled the Genome Library which was the collective hive of futa knowledge besides the fearsome intergalactic Futanari Inquisition (IFI). IFI was the Futa Research, Development and Intelligence Organization renowned for its bionic infiltrators. The Forces of the Imperial Guard were the mightiest in all the empire. At the dawn of humanity's 65th century, they became the latest race to be conquered by the Futanari. The humans had only just begun their exploration of intergalactic space when they encountered a futa probe. The Futanari were always on the lookout for new races to capture and integrate into their vast intergalactic empire. It was part of their eternal quest for universal biological supremacy. The human encounter prompted the launch of several exploratory missions from futa space with the stated objectives of specimen capture and surveillance data of the newly discovered species. However, Earth's fleet thwarted most of these vessels. Unfortunately for humanity, some Futanari probes and ships succeeded in their missions and retrieved data proving the existence and capabilities of the human race to the Futanari Imperium. The data indicated that humans were highly compatible with Futanari DNA making them ideal for breeding greater numbers and reaping potential harvests. As a result, the Empress of all Futanari, Archon Asinine commissioned the conquest of Earth. Lea Archon Asinine the daughter of the empress commanded the 6th Futanari battle fleet along with forces from Futanari house 136 (FH136) in an expeditionary conquest to the new planet discovered in sector 136. Upon entering the Milky Way galaxy, the futa advance squadrons attacked the human scout ships and engaged all human forces drawing out the main human force. Hummanity's lone space fleet surrounded the various alien squadrons whose total number was half its size thinking that they were the main fleet. It proved to be a fatal mistake. When earth's armada engaged them fully, the Futa squadrons transmitted co-ordinates and battle data to their mother force which was lurking outside the Milky Way galaxy far beyond the reach of human satellites. The Futa Battle Fleet locked onto the prediction co-ordinates sent by its advance squadrons and executed a hyper wave jump into the Milky Way. General Rudd of the global interstellar fleet could only swallow in grim realization of his doom when Humanity's forces were suddenly surrounded by the Enormous Futanari Armada blockading every direction. His superiors and the rest of humanity were similarly shell shocked by the size of the alien fleet. Earth's leaders and intelligence officers scrambled communications ordering Earth's armada to disengage and withdraw immediately.But the old general did not get the chance to retreat let alone negotiate. In a demonstration of their might, the Futanari Armada decimated the primitive humanspace fleet using cutting edge technology and overwhelming firepower. Humanity could only watch the brutal slaughter of their only space army in horror and trepidation from their planet. Not a single ship of the sole human battle fleet escaped. Now virtually unopposed, the Futanari Armada steadily estabilished control of all planets except earth in the solar system. Princess Lea consulted with her intelligence officers and then chose Venus and Uranus as the base planets for the Futanari fleet tactically positioned on either side of the asteroid belt. The majority of the futa's Energy harvesters would be based on Venus, taking advantage of the intense solar exposure and easily integral planetary elements which would allow warp transfer of energy to power all Futanari endeavours within the solar system. Drone ships were dispatched to survey and begin the work on Venus. Meanwhile the Scout sensors had detected the potential for mining strategic elements on Uranus. It was chosen as the primary Futanari settlement within the solar system. The Futa Colony ships deployed terraformers on Uranus to begin the construction of a major base while the armada divided into two fleets that patrolled either side of the asteroid belt. The human settlement on the red planet of Mars was taken by the Futanari after a short by devastating offensive that obliterated the human defences of the planet. By then the major portion of the human population had evacuated to earth. The remaining humans were rounded up as a free labour force and for intelligence extraction concerning earth. The Martian Shipyards proved to be a tactical asset to the Futanari. Using the newly formed human labour force in tandem with their drone robots, the futa upgraded and retrofitted the shipyards with Futanari technology. It was soon operating at full capacity as a vital secondary base for the Futanari fleet repairs or maintenance. The humans on the red planet were the first to be officially registered under the Futanari government of the solar system under FH136 or the alien government as it would be known among its human subjects. As the work on Mars, Venus and Uranus progressed smoothly, Lea and her war council turned their attention to earth. The Futanari princess demanded every scrap of intelligence that could be gained from hacking the human communication networks and transliteration of the human language. Much to futa frustration humans apparently had innumerable variations of language. But futa researchers discovered that English was the most common dialect. Lea ordered her psych corps to build DNA based bio ware that upon ingestion would allow the Futanari to instinctively communicate in the human tongue. They built a successful model for her in a couple of days. The princess ordered every futa in the solar system to be similarly equipped once the nano manufacturers began producing the requisite amount of bio ware. For now only the Futanari on board her ship received the bionic upgrade. Then the princess summoned her council of war. They gathered around the large holographic pedestal near the helm of the princess's royal battle cruiser. It displayed all the acquired intelligence pertaining to earth derived from the deciphered human communications via satellite uplinks and futa scanners. The vast metallic air conditioned hall had a large window showing the beautiful home world of humanity as the ship and a section of the Futanari fleet entered into earth's orbit. Lea's council of war was composed of the usual mix of genetic futa hybrids. Their smooth skin tones were varying hues or mixes of red, blue and green. Their bodies were slightly larger in terms of height and girth compared to the average human. The hybrid futa DNA possessed a variety of plant and reptilian characteristics despite being humanoid in appearance. The Armada's war council members each had a different composition of futa DNA giving them a variety of non human characteristics like, antennae, horns, tails, wings, different tongues, or claws along with their peculiar limbs which were either webbed or had oddly distributed digits for balancing their inhuman bodies. In addition their senses and capabilities equalled if not exceeded those of the species present in the human biosphere. Their reptilian eyes were focussed o the royal princess awaiting her orders. Lea gathered her thoughts in the brief silence before speaking to the council members who were also her suboordnate commanders. "I estimate that we should be able to take the planet easily. We can wipe out any planetary defences or forces from orbit and they don't have any more space ships left." She was surprised when Moa her blue skinned intelligence officer disagreed. "The humans are too stubborn to surrender, my princess. They still have radioactive weaponry. Intel derived from the neural probe of captured humans indicates that they may destroy the whole planet before they let us share or conquer it. I advise against orbital assault your highness. It may have unpredictable and irreversible results." Lea disliked unpredictable outcomes. She preferred a clear scenario. But life seldom offered clarity of focus when you were conducting an intergalactic expedition. Turning to her green skinned strategic advisor Tutsi, the princess proffered an alternative. "Can we disable the nuclear weaponry from orbit or send in the storm squads to secure all fissile matter?" "It's difficult princess. The humans have mobile nuclear deployment platforms as well as a variety of vessels and structures with nuclear energy. Our analysts remain divided on whether the grind linked reactors are merely energy producers or defensive weapons or both. But the sheer amount of active fissile matter on the surface can start a planet consuming chain reaction if we begin a fire fight. Judging by the lack of any diplomatic approach, the humans have assumed the worst of us and are preparing accordingly. Our assault has clearly provoked an extreme reaction." Lea now leaned forward with her open palms flattened on the holographic pedestal. The light of the hologram illuminated her pale skin and humanoid feminine figure. Only the royal Futanari had fair skin. Lea's long ear twitched marking her irritation as she struggled with her options. Earth was clearly an immensely valuable planet. No other species in the universe had such fairness of skin to rival the beauty of futa royals. Earth's biodiversity outstripped most planets of the known empire. The Empress would flay her alive if she failed to acquire this planet biologically intact. After thinking through a number of options Lea sighed. "Unless any of you have a better idea I have no other choice but to conquer by infiltrated reproduction which is going to take much longer than an orbital assault conquest. Still it's better than to risk planetary immolation." She waited hopefully for a while but nobody volunteered any alternative. "It's settled then. Now how shall we proceed?" Moa was excited because the infiltration mode of conquest meant her intelligence wing would play the leading role. Though risky it had the potential for great rewards. She was more than willing to take the risk; the intelligence faction seldom got the chance to conquer planets by stealth. Success meant she and her intelligence wing who had helped the conquest would gain shares with FH136 and the imperial house in controlling Earth and its immensely valuable biological population. "I recommend that we not attack the planet at all your highness. We will just use intimidation tactics using our superior firepower and manoeuvring displays all over the orbit of their planet but just out of human weapon range. We will neutralize any human vessel or defence that attacks our ships in spite of our precautions in earth's orbit or the stratosphere. Once the pod ships are ready we'll deploy them at the frozen poles of the planet after intimidating the humans into a diplomatic settlement treaty. Then, our shielded settlers will earn human trust by terraforming the planet to favour their habitation before infiltrating the population via the community centres. Then we can genetically disable their opposition to our taking control of the planet. Propaganda tools will ensure that the humans never suspect our motives let alone our method of conquest." Moa's well outlined plan gained the approval of the princess and the council. Her highness, Lea Archon Asinine officially notified the entire expedition that Moa was in command of the project to occupy earth and subdue humanity. Meanwhile the rest of the Futanari expedition would focus on building infrastructure for generating viable commerce from the solar system. Under Moa's command a portion of the futa fleet occupied earth's atmosphere, occasionally conducting firing drills designed to intimidate. It suitably terrified humanity for the next solar revolution of earth as the Futanari colonized Mars, Venus and Uranus. At the end of the solar year, Moa was thrilled when a pro-alien faction of humans made contact with the Futanari requesting dialogue. It saved her the effort to contact the humans herself. The subsequent negotiations went smoothly with the now thoroughly cowed human leaders agreeing to alien settlement on the isolated frozen continents of the arctic and Antarctica. Moa communicated with the human's planetary council. They called it the United Nations or UN. She assured humanity that the Futanari had merely wanted to establish good relations since the Milky Way galaxy had recently been acquired by the Futanari. Of course, the humans had no way of verifying that story. She knew that their lack of intelligence regarding the universe would lead them to believe her. Eventually the security council of the UN signed the settlement contract with the Futanari carefully insisting that no alien weapons could be brought to the planet. Moa let them believe that they'd gotten a good deal. The humans had no idea what was in store for them. A month after the contracts were signed, the pod ships landed supervised by human drones, fighter craft and naval squadrons. Once the Pod ships anchored themselves in the earth's gravitational field, they deployed a force field sealing off both the north and south poles from humanity. No Human craft, sensor or weapon could penetrate the field. Moa grinned when her supervisory controllers reported that the fields were active and fully operational. Phase 1 of her conquest plan was now a grand success. The Futanari had established a foothold on Earth without firing a shot. Their force fields were powered by the warp energy transmitted from Venus as well as back up reactors. These fields would conceal all futa activity within the vast conical spiral space expanding from the point of the planets core past the stratosphere. The humans were infuriated, accusing her of deception and demanded that they be allowed past the alien force field or else the contract was null and void. Moa calmly pointed out that the Futanari had honoured the contract by not bringing any weapons. She insisted that force field was not a weapon but a usual feature of alien settlements. Her response only served to aggravate human paranoia and threats. They reiterated their demand that the Futanari allow them to inspect the area within the force field. Moa simply ignored them and cut off all communication. In response, human forces launched a number of useless assaults against the force field both nuclear and conventional. For the next 6 decades, Moa stopped all dialogue and prepared phase 2 of the invasion plan within the force field shielded from human eyes. As Moa expected humans had shorter life spans than futa who could live as long as they wanted with Futa Serum. Within half a century, almost all the leaders of the human nations had changed making them more amenable for her purposes. She waited until the right balance of different leaders whom the futa could manipulate came into power before launching phase 2 of the plan. It involved winning the trust of humanity. Moa initiated Phase 2 by opening the diplomatic channels for the first time since the force fields became active. She announced a meeting of humans and aliens in the newly renovated space station and Hubble telescope. Humanity had lost control of both after the invasion of their solar system. She intended to lull the gullible humans by manipulating their greed and curiosity. Naturally the humans could not resist her invitation and eventually sent a few of their number to the meeting. Moa treated them with utmost respect and made a magnanimous gesture of futanari good will. She gave the visiting humans the access codes and full schematics to control both space structures. Throughout human communication channels, Moa officially proclaimed the return of the newly refurbished Space Telescope and international space station to humanity's control. With the space station and telescope now returned to their control, the humans frequently came to the station and the telescope. They soon discovered that the futa had enhanced both the telescope and the station with their technology expanding their respective capabilities. Their present sizes were capable of sustaining several tribes of humans with all the requisite technology and more. It was a feat the humans could not even dream of accomplishing with their limited technology. Soon the astronauts who visited as well as pro-alien activists were gushing about the 'grand' gesture of the 'peace loving' aliens. With carefully engineered Futanari propaganda rapidly circulating the planet's news channels, Moa executed the next part of phase two with a declaration allowing free safe passage for unarmed humans to visit the futa colonies of Arctic and Antarctica. Her announcement was the media bomb that started a storm of arguments between the humans who were pro-alien and those who were anti-alien. The anti - alien faction was led by the surviving families of humans who had died when their armada was annihilated by the Futanari invasion force. Despite the protests and dire warnings of alien entrapment, a group of curious pro-alien humans eventually crossed the force field unarmed. They could hardly believe what they saw. The artificial futa colony was a feat of bio-technology and genetic engineering. The Futanari had not only built several Artificial Intelligences to control climates and multiple ecosystems, they literally restored prehistoric habitats and their species including dinosaurs. Their technology gave clean energy, purged toxic pollutants and maintained a water cycle which kept refreezing the poles of the earth to counteract global warming. The futa named their artificial habitats as Triassic parks. The humans who saw this became even more forceful proponents of alien welfare. Soon droves of tourists were visiting the Triassic parks to visit formerly extinct species. World leaders requested alien conferences on conservation, pollution and climate change. Moa acquiesced saying that the Futanari was willing to put the past behind them if the humans were.
