The following is a bit of alternative fiction based on certain characters from the Xenaverse. It is not meant to infringe on anyone else's rights.


After the world stopped revolving around me I opened my eyes again. Joni was staring right at me, "mmbrflhj" she said. Actually, I think she was saying something like, "are you alright?" or maybe even my name.

I was astonished to see her and said so, "You're here." I tried to do more, but I pretty much couldn't. This reminded me of the time I'd woken up once, totally unable to move. I'd never been so scared. I thought I was paralyzed. It went away, when I calmed down, but still..it was a horrible weird experience. That time, I'd been alone. But this time....

My lover gave me a blank look, then crouched down. She touched my face with her hand. All I could feel was the tingle of it. I blinked at Joni, trying to clear the haze from my brain.

"What did you do?" she asked softly, stroking my cheek.

I sniffed, then looked towards the mirror. My neck moved ever so slightly. I felt better for that. "I said my other name."

"Other...Oh gods..." Her brown eyes darkened. "Bernie...."

"No," I whispered, "I'm...."

She hurried and pressed fingers to my lips, "shh..don't say it. Not now." I figured she either knew what I was going to say because she'd read my records, or else she knew because...she knew...like I did.

I tried to see into her heart, hopeful. "Are you?" Should I say her other name? Was *she* who I thought she was? Who I felt she was? I didn't know. Brigid would have no doubts, but I only suspected. I hadn't dared to ask plain out. I only had the way my body responded to her. The way I'd been able to do something I hadn't ever ..on this earth...before.

She shook her head, but in worry, not negation. Her palm slid down my cheek and away. The next thing I knew I was in her arms. I felt like I was floating though. I could feel the energy of her, but not the tangible flesh of her. She looked grim as she carried me into the bedroom and laid me on the soft, rumpled surface of the bed. I lay there, watching her, as she pulled back from me. She stripped off her shirt, lifting it right over her head. The skirt dropped to the floor next. She wasn't wearing anything under. Which made sense. Her hose were still tied to the headboard. I had no idea where her bra was or her panties. I guess she couldn't find them either. Not that I was complaining.

"Why are you here?" I asked. It was a mystery. For all I knew, she'd been gone and come back. Maybe the service had called her back. I'd long been convinced that I was under surveillance.

She shushed me again. "I was making breakfast." She kicked off her shoes.

"Oh?" I was tickled at that. No one had made me breakfast before, except for Mom, and she didn't count. Well, she counted, but not that way. I sniffed the air and caught the edges of what I thought might be bacon. Tough luck that I was going to miss it.

Joni slid in besides me, pulling the covers up. Her body closed in on my back. "Relax, you're going to be okay," she said. I wondered how I could get any more relaxed than not being able to move. Her arm wrapped around my waist. I felt...felt light pulses along my spine, and then a startling jolt starting from the dark triangle of my curls. Then I felt hot pressure on my clit and my body shook itself awake. I was fairly sure the whole room lit up. Or else it was just me.

I gasped when her mouth found mine, responding automatically to her full kiss. I felt the swirl of fire take over my vision. I moved under her, making room for her to settle between my legs. She rolled me a little. I felt her slick heat upon my thigh. She rubbed against me. I felt like my leg was on fire. Her kisses covered my screams and were wet and warm. Her breath was hot in my ear. "Mine," she whispered reverently.

The word thrilled through me light lightening. I was hardly in a position to resist. "Yes." My ear got suckled and I whimpered because it hurt and felt good at the same time. Then her fingers started to move against my center's pearl and my whole soul burned as I exploded into the void.
