The space odyssey of the snow leopard

Chapter 12: Chapter 12 Artifact. 'Mother'?



Entering the corridor, apparently in which there were some kind of sensor, the corridor was lit and it was like some kind of "forerunner" from the game about the assassins.

Without staring at this, I walked along the corridor and went out into the Great Hall, in the middle of which there was a pedestal, on which there was a black "cube", similar to that I saw the frescoes.

Looking around, I saw nothing else.

Was this hall built for one cube?

This is pointless, why such a large space for one pedestal?

If only ...

Traps.

I knew that it would not be so easy, now I would understand what awaits me.

I went to the edge of the floor, from where he begins to look different than before.

On this floor, different drawings were scattered like that, those frescoes.

Is this a puzzle?

I have never been strong in this!

Yes, but I think they missed something!

I took out a gun and shot on the nearest stove, after the shot, she immediately fell down.

Approaching, to the cliff, I saw a stake at the bottom of the pit, and anyone who would not be careful, would fall and would pierce them. What is good that I have pistols.

I began to advance on the floor, shooting and looking for my way where the plates are not traps, as they say, I outplayed and destroyed.

Hehe.

At such a pace, I got to this very pedestal, and I had a bad foreboding, it looks very much that I touch this place to collapse, which was very bad, it made me run out of the headlong, where I could please me in One of the holes under the floor.

But I did not have much choice!

I went up to this "Cuba", and with a hinged breath, I extended my hand to him.

As soon as I touched him, the world around me changed and I was in open space.

I already wanted to panic until I heard a voice.

"Hush, you are in the non-real space."-it was the voice of a rather mature woman.

Turning, my breath caught my breath.

In front of me was a beautiful mature woman and the main element of her appearance, that she looked like me, only an adult copy, or rather I look like her?

Is my soul the body of the Urals and this woman in front of me is the mother of this body?

Anxious thoughts began to creep into my mind until I heard her laughter.

"Fu-fu! I see in your face what you think about, no you have not stole the body, I just asked the one who created this body to use my DNA, which makes you actually my daughter. "

That is, she is my "mother"!

I did not think that I would have one in my life, although it is not standard for her.

"Okay, well, say" mother ", where I am and what is happening. Why, when I saw this planet, she began to appeal me. '

She smiled and answered.

"Because, I called you! This is a planet when you were inhabited by people like you and I, with animal features. They constantly fought, for the territory, food, and even for water. Until the reapers came, and I will immediately ahead of you answering your question why they became interested in an unreasoned race. It's all about me and the cube that you saw. This is a technology that gives strength, they considered that the inhabitants of this planet created it and decided that it threatens their plans for the "harvest". "She said.

Honestly, it explains a lot!

But!

"Then who are you? I do not think that you were one of them, I even saw how you were something like a goddess for them? So where did you come from? '

She smiled and spoke.

"Yes, you are right, I did not belong to their society and appeared on this planet by chance! I am from a very distant place, or rather time, I will not tell you from which, as this can overload your brain. And this "cube", the technology that was created in my time. In my time, there is a race of people with animal facial features called "psionics". In a word, these are super soldiers. They can run quickly, jump high, bulletproof, the power of thought can stop the shells, lasers, bullets, and so on, flying in them. And I am a "psionic", and this "cube" can turn anyone into "psionics", you probably already saw how I endowed these primitive tribes, by force that goes beyond the whole framework. Otherwise, the reapers would be destroyed, although on the other hand, if I had not appeared here, then the reapers would not have arrived here for a very long time. "She finished

It seems to me that this was not in the game!

Although the actions of the game come on behalf of Shepard, and her journey, which should help in victory over the Reapers.

And she has no time to just stop and explore the galaxy when the life of this galaxy depends on her actions.

"Good, but why am I? Why did you call me? "I asked her

"Because, I want to pass on this "cube" as a legacy to my descendant, although this is not standard, but you are my descendant, my "daughter", and besides, I no longer need it, I no longer exist in the usual understanding. For many it means death, but for me it means ascension. I have ascended, becoming something like a spirit, both existing and non-existent."

It's like those self-improvement novels where some venerable person leaves a legacy, but before that, I have to pass a test.

"Um, I can just take this "cube", right?" I asked with suspicion.

"Yes!" she answered briefly.

"Is it that simple?" I asked

"What did you expect? Any test that will push you beyond your limits? Your imagination is too wild. But I want something small."

"Okay, go ahead, if it's within my capabilities, I'll do it."

"Can you call me mom?" she said, as if she was begging.

I mean why not? That's essentially what she is.

"Mom!" I said, but the next moment my face was pressed against large soft hills.

"FU-FU, my daughter is so cute," she said happily, pressing my head to her chest.

NO WOMAN! Of course, I don't mind dying such a death, but not now.

Then she saw my position, that I couldn't breathe, and loosened her hug a little, giving me air but not letting me go. And she looked down at me, he was about a head and a half taller than me. 

"Sorry, I forgot that you still need to breathe," she said in an apologetic tone.

"Okay nothing..."

'Mother!'

Yes, I will call her mom, hugging her ignited something in me, something that I was deprived of in a past life.

Parental love.

She smiled at me.

"Yes, I am your mother, and you are my daughter."

I also smiled involuntarily, but then cleared my throat and asked.

"What happened to the inhabitants of this planet, they defeated the greatest threat in the galaxy, but what killed them."

She smiled sadly at me and answered.

"For the sake of great strength, you have to sacrifice something. In this case it is infertility, as soon as you accept the power that the "cube" gives you, you will become infertile, that's why there is no one here, they are all extinct.

Yes, that's what I suspected.

"Then, will I become infertile, like you?" I asked her

She nodded

"Yes, but you and I are a little different than the people who previously lived on this planet, so for us it's not scary to be infertile, we have a fairly long life expectancy. And there are workarounds, like with you, for example."

Well, actually it doesn't upset me, but I was thinking about the child that I would carry myself, but it was under the influence of estrus.

"Tell me, mom, can I not receive the power of this "cube", but take it with me and receive it later?"

She nodded

"You can, but why? Do you really want to give birth, should I wait for a grandson?"

I blushed and answered

"What, no, I have a wife and I don't like guys, and my wife is a spaceship."

She laughed and said

"I was just joking, but I know about my wife! In terms of our race, there are no male representatives, but females and females with both sets of genitalia."

What? Futanari?

Although, I expected this, look at the same Azari, they also have no male representatives and they live well.

"Um, then I have..." she interrupted me

"Is there a second mother? No, I was always immersed in my research, which led me to this timeline, I had no time for love.

"I see, but what next?"

"Well, I don't want to hold you back for long, as soon as you disappear from here, you will appear in that temple, but again that "cube" from the pedestal, the temple will start a self-destruct mode, so you need to act quickly. I expected that you would immediately accept this power and the destruction of this temple would not harm you, but now..."

"I think I can handle it, but what about you?"

"Fufu, my daughter already misses me."

I pouted and muttered.

"It's not like I…"

She hugged me tighter and said in my ear 

"I will always be with you, watching over you, so don't be upset, we will meet again more than once."

I felt warmth from her words.

"Well, my dear girl, the time has come, go forward and do not be afraid of anything, even if you want to destroy the galaxy, I will be on your side." - she said, and I again found myself in the same room in front of the pedestal 

"Destroy the galaxy? HUH?" I muttered

Am I capable of this? C Enterprise yes! But do I want this? Not yet.

Well, no need to worry about this right now, but rather I'm worried about how to get out of here alive.

I came closer to the pedestal, and without hesitation I grabbed the "cube" and immediately ran back.

The temple began to shake, and collapses occurred everywhere.

I jumped over those traps, making it in time when the entire floor collapsed.

Running into that corridor, I saw how the statue could fall at any moment and block my path.

I accelerated, slipping into the opening, in which a statue collapsed a second later.

It is a pity that this statue was beautiful and dedicated to my mother, what a loss.

Having run, through the main hall where everywhere, landslides took place, I slipped to the exit, and immediately headed for the tree in which I stopped taking my breath, watching how the temple collapses.

I noticed that the storm that surrounded the planet disappeared, which means that the connection is available.

Looking at your terminal ...

I realized that I was screwed up.

In front of me, an enemy loomed, whom no one can win!

Enraged wife!
