Chapter Sixty Followed Home

Kiru carefully docked the truck. The inspection for today was over, and they had just been to the clinic. The Iniri there had been ecstatic to see the little girl she had been so worried over. That poor girl was practically first to be given a full assessment, followed by a lengthy brainwashing s...

Chapter Fifty-Nine In the Valley of a Dragon

The girl nodded as her face lit up at the question. “Yep! In fact, some new faces arrived this morning. They came floating down the river on a crude raft.”

“Oh? Now that sounds interesting. Uliera has led a few people here over the weeks. But this is the first I have heard of people c...

Chapter Fifty-Eight A Day in the Valley of a Dragon

Seru stretched as she rolled out of her bed. It was a new day. It had been weeks since that fateful day she had pulled her own name out of that bucket. Her entire life had changed that day. Although she had to admit the dragon had kept her word. She and her fellow caretakers had gone with the dra...

Chapter Fifty-Seven May and the Pregnant Neku at the Bank

The pregnant woman's visit went pretty routine at first. A fact that lined up with the previous observations Qei relayed to her. The receptionist did most of the work on the computer before asking her to come back to sign some papers. May followed her into the back to watch. The receptionist had ...

Chapter Fifty-Six Qei in Trouble

Qei had no idea how she was going to get out of this without getting revealed. Her path was blocked, the door closed again, and with it her only exit. A part of her was wishing she had Kiru’s luck right about now. Not that she had much time to think about that. She looked around the room. It di...

Chapter Two The Lizardgirl

Ilia entered the family sub pen looking for Telis, the lizardgirl she had brought back. Telis was kind of cute in an alien sort of way and tall for a girl. Telis looked to be about 155 centimeters tall. Her body was covered with light red scales, she seemed lithe and slender. Albeit poorly built ...

Interlude ???

She leaned back in her chair. It had been a busy day for her.  Thankfully it was nothing unusual, just the normal routine stuff. Already she was looking forward to some relaxation, she had a very cute and lovely Neku waiting for her. One she had some wonderful plans for.

She slipped ou...

Chapter Fifty-Five Qei, and the School Inspection

Qei looked around after coming in the door. She had never been to a school before. This clearly looked like the front office. There was a large reception counter nearby with a couple of bored-looking women manning the counter. Behind the counter she could see a few more women milling about. From ...

Chapter Fifty-Four Answers, and Inspections II

As they stepped out of yet another shop with a number of naked girls in tow, Kiru asked a question that was on her mind. Maybe Qelu would answer it. “Out of curiosity, why are we hunting in the mall? Wouldn’t you find more girls if you visit a school?”

Qelu nodded, “Yes, but I haven...

Posting Schedule and updates

First I realize that I forgot to update you on how my foot is doing. You will be glad to hear that it had healed, and so far no additional sharp objects have landed on it.

Now more important then my foot is posting schedule. At the moment, ASB will continue with a weekly chapter update for...

Chapter One Saved by a Fish-girl?

She groaned, and rubbed her head groggily. It took her a few moments to register her surroundings and the alien voices. She could not understand a word being spoken, but the voices were decidedly female. The language was almost musical in sound, but she had never heard it spoken before. It must n...

Prologue A Meeting Between Worlds

The young girl stretched as she stepped into her bathroom to start her day. She glanced at the mirror taking in her appearance. She was 127 centimeters tall which was only a little short for her race. Much of her skin was coated with a layer of fine blue-green scales that glinted in the light and...

Chapter Fifty-Three Answers, and Inspections I

Kiru stretched a bit, as she slipped out of bed. A glance at the other bed revealed Qelu to still be fast asleep. Last night had definitely been interesting. Quietly she made for the door, while sending a more detailed update to her friends. She had no doubt that May and Qei would be a little wor...

Synopsis for Heart of the Depths, and gauging Interest

A thousand years ago, the Renkethi people fought in a terrible war against alien aggressors. Their fledgling civilization was left in ruins, and their homeworld vanished in mysterious circumstances. Seeking refuge they found a planet they named Renketh, an ocean world with vast oceans and dotted ...

Chapter Fifty Two Qelu’s Offer

“Why don’t you work for me? I could use someone that I can actually talk to during these inspections, and it will pay better than this shitty job. You won’t have to wear any stupid clothing either. So it will be a much better job all around.”

Those words echoed in her head....

Chapter Fifty-One More Clues at the Storage Facility?

May poked into another room. She had left the alterations room behind awhile ago, but it turned out to not be the only workroom on the floor. There had been a few others on the first floor of this suspicious building. She had also found a weird break room, a cafeteria, and she had even found the ...

General Update

Hey guys and girls. I am sure you have noted the recent lack of updates with WDYMADAG. I'm afraid that largely has to do with me. I know what is meant to happen over the next few chapters, even have a broad-strokes plan. I just haven't been in the mood to write it it, in other words, its a form o...

Interlude Neku Grav-Boxes

The Neku grav box is a versatile cargo container common to many a household and even used heavily elsewhere. The grav-box completely replaced older packing solutions due to its ease of use, durability, and convenience. I’m sure you have noticed that many households have them on hand, and that i...

Chapter Fifty Clues in the Suburbs

The next few houses were rather the same as the first three. The Iniri girl went in, physically inspected everyone, and took the girls she deemed suitable. Leaving the others behind. They were on the third to last house of the block when something new came up.

Kiru had settled on the floor....

Chapter Forty-Nine Oddities in the Suburbs

Kiru walked down the sidewalk. She was following a lead on a courier that had come all the way to the suburbs. She had tagged the courier outside a smaller house with only one occupant, delivering her cut of the items they sold for her, and a bill for her last medical ‘appointment.’ It was a ...

Chapter Forty-Eight Clues at the Bank

Qei followed the woman into the bank. Just as she had expected the young woman had come back out of her apartment not long after the courier had left, and she had followed her straight to the local bank. As she entered the building with the woman, Qei noted the people around. The receptionists we...

Chapter Forty-Seven Gathering Clues

Qei walked down the hall of the apartment building. It had been a few days since they first arrived. May was currently checking back on the mother she had observed on day one. While Kiru was out tracking down another courier. They had been spending the last few days locating and tagging the couri...

Chapter Forty-Six The First Pieces of the Puzzle

Kiru stepped into the apartment that Qei had secured for them. May was right behind her, and the pair looked over the entry room. The foyer was set up as a sitting room, with several sofas and chairs arranged around a large screen. That screen was part of the comm terminal, but it could also be u...

Interlude Solean Armor

The Soleans and their two cousin races possess some of the most effective and unique armor in the known universe. This highly effective armor also played into the early Solean mentality to dismiss shields as a viable defensive mechanism. It didn’t help that they were also quite talented at defe...

Chapter Forty-Five More Clues at the Strange Clinic

After a while the five aliens finally stopped arguing. The first alien that she had followed seemed to be pouting. It was honestly kind of cute. Kiru had an urge to tease her but pushed it down. She was well aware that now wasn’t the time for that kind of thing. Instead, she merely observed the...

Chapter Forty-Four May’s Observations, and Kiru’s Experience in the Strange Clinic

This week was most productive for me. For those reading ASB you would be glad to know that I wrote three interludes and fifteen chapters in a weeks time. Although that came at the cost of no new chapters for any other story this week. I hope you enjoy this chapter!

Chapter CXLII Visiting Tazi, and Setting out

Phyllis knocked on the door of the old dwarf the guildmaster had told her about. This Tazi might have what she was looking for, so she had come here following the directions she had been given. She had just rapped the door for the second time, when she heard a lock turning, ...

Chapter Forty-Three First Day in the City

Kiru stretched as she stepped off the boat. It had been a long and mostly uneventful trip. She had spent most of the trip playing games with May, and Qei. They had played a few rounds of card games, and a couple of board games. Even tried out a couple of video games. A few of the games had been q...

Chapter Forty-Two The Plan First Phase

Kiru walked down the corridor. Today was finally the day they were going to infiltrate the capital. Over the last few days she had been practicing the mission in the simulator with her classmates. They had made some refinements to the plans. Mostly on the boat that would be delivering them to the...

Chapter CXLI Cursed Dwarves, and...

Meanwhile while Misaki was dealing with curse dwarves, Arlie and Ovi’ta landed in the cursed wetlands of Drakis de Val. A region most famed for a monstrous parasite, the Rel’ki Nal. A species both feared and prized. It was well known for its venom which was both a potent aphrodisiac, and a mu...
