Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

Chapter 71 Frightened

"These will be special ones for me as well because I don't think there is another woman in the world like you," I said after breaking the kiss, and one of the sections of the wall outside opened up.

I turned and then ran out, jumping out into the air and spreading my wings to head back home. Marley cheered from my arms as the wind caught my wings as I flapped, climbing up to the warmer air currents.

Once I was high enough, I was able to sail along what felt like a warm river of air, occasionally stroking my wings to keep altitude.

"Wow, I have always wanted to try to go hang gliding, but this is taking it to a whole other level!" Marley cheered, and I had to agree.

I was more focused on the city that was coming into view before us.

It looked nothing like what it had before, now filled with massive trees dwarfing all-natural buildings, but the city hadn't been huge, to begin with. The thing that stood out the most about it was the snow surrounding it, but it looked like summer inside it.

"The city looks like a carved out piece of paradise with all the snow around it, doesn't it? '' I asked Marley, and she looked ahead and nodded.

"Yeah, this whole scene looks like we're are about to fly into a forbid forests only known to fairies and Elves!" Marley laughed as we started to fly over the city, and I dropped down.

I had to agree with her, and I wondered if that could be a possibility in the future? Changing the human genetics of the ones that wanted to be Elves and Fairies would be pretty cool.

I grinned to myself as I swooped down to the main Great Tree over my old apartment. I slowed down and floated until I was in line with landing before my pool and then dropped down.

Roots sprung from my legs, slowing us down, so we set down gently, and I put Marley down. The two of us walked down to the second level, and Melody was there waiting for us with Gaia and Kitsune.

"Well, don't you look pretty! Losing your virginity never looked so good!" Melody laughed, but Marley stuck out her tongue while holding onto my arm.

"Who says I lost it? I might have let him take it, but he healed me after, so I am like one of those born again virgins!" Marley declared, and Melody laughed.

"Or a glutton for punishment! I would guess the latter! Still, Dan, you need to go see how the newest member is doing. She locked herself in her room, and Mr. Tree isn't letting any of us in!" Melody explained, and I nodded.

"Sure, I will go talk with her. Kitsune, do you mind coming with me? I think that you might be a big help if you don't mind spending some time with Chelsea?" I asked, turning to look at my big fox, and she nodded.

"I don't mind helping you and the child that is frightened. I could smell her fear from outside of the door," Kitsune explained, and I nodded.

"She has been through more than any of us, so she will take time to warm up to everyone. I will come to find you after, Melody, and thank you, Gaia, for bringing her home safely," I said, and both women nodded at me.

I gave each of the three girls a quick peck before turning south to the opposite side of the tree from my room. Could sense Chelsea in the far room, and I could also feel all the fear and worry that was oozing out of her.

"Just wait out here, and I will call you in after," I told Kitsune, and the large red fox nodded and went to lay down beside the door.

I walked up to the door, and it spun open to show Chelsea sitting on the big bed in the center of the room. She had her knees drawn into her chest, and she was rocking back and forth.

"Hey," I said, walking into the room as the door closed behind me.

"Hey," Chelsea said without looking up, so I walked over to sit down on the end of the bed.

"Not really feeling like hanging out with others right now?" I asked, and she shook her head.

"I am scared that I am going to hurt them. If I were to transform up here, some of those girls might die," Chelsea said quietly, but I shook my head, and roots sprung up all around the bed to create a dome.

Chelsea looked up from her knees with surprise and looked at me.

"You wouldn't get the chance to hurt anyone if you accidentally transformed. Mr. Tree would have you wrapped up like a baked potato before you got a chance to spark," I explained as the roots retracted back into the tree.

"You really are amazing, but I think I am still going to keep to myself for a bit," Chelsea said, and I nodded.

"About that. What do you think about having... not really a pet, but more of a friend that is an animal and one that will talk back to you? I think that my friend Kitsune would be a good match for you right now. Her four children are helping rescue people, and she said she wouldn't mind staying by your side for a little bit," I explained, and Chelsea looked at me funny.

"A fox?" Chelsea asked, and I nodded and then called her in.

The door opened, and the big red fox walked in and came over to the side of the bed, where I patted for her to jump up and lay down.

Chelsea's eye almost fell out of her head as she watched Kitsune.

"Is this real? How is this possible?!" Chelsea exclaimed.

"Daniel gave me this body and mind, and now I am greatly indebted to him. If there is anything that you want to talk about, feel free to do so with me. You can also stroke my fur or cuddle into me; the other girls really seem to enjoy doing that," Kitsune said, and Chelsea latched on to Kitsune.
