Breeding the Colony

 John walked briskly behind his personal aide Ashley. They had been walking for five minutes already, and John wondered where they could be heading. The two-toned grey and white hallways of the hab facility were entirely empty, save them and their footsteps, which echoed up and down the great expanse of the facility. The facility had been built to house some 4,000 men and women. But, after the disaster of the week prior, the facility instead housed only 2,000 women, and a single man, John.

The implications of this had quickly been made clear to John. The colony would need children if it was to survive and eventually thrive. No sperm donations had been brought along with the transports, as it was believed they would be unnecessary. But as the events of the past week had demonstrated, this was a serious logistical oversight. The overseer of the colony, Dr. Linda Everett, had made it clear to John that he would have to begin the insemination of women within the colony as soon as he was able. His aide, Ashely was assigned to him, to ensure he made all appointments and had everything he needed to remain healthy and dedicated to his new duty. Furthermore, two body-guards, whose names John did not yet know, had been assigned to follow him everywhere he went. Their purpose being obvious. The protection of John against any threat. They now tailed a few paces behind him to his left and right, rifles in hand.

After passing the third empty dining hall in a row, John became confused about where they were headed. “Ashley, where are we going?”

“To the empty male living quarters, Overseer Everett wanted your first experience to be in a safe and secluded area. Free of any…. distractions.” Ashley said with a smile and a wink. “We’re almost there, don’t worry.” Her words rung true, for after only another 50 yards she came to a halt before a living space titled, Apartment 0001.

“Here we are, a woman named Mary will be waiting for you inside, she was specially selected by myself and the overseer for this. She is 35 and has a wide range of experience in the bedroom, she will teach you the ropes.” Ashley gestured to the door. “The guards and I will be waiting out here for you when you are finished.”

John looked at the door somewhat nervously, he had never been intimate with a woman before, and at the age of 20 being a virgin was something of insecurity of his. Now he had been thrust into a situation where he was about to have sex with the first of thousands of women. It hadn’t hit him until just then that he was going to be the father of thousands of children. He knew he should have been elated by the prospect, this was a prospect that many men would kill for. But for John, it felt more daunting than anything. Like he was standing atop a cliff, about to make a jump into a new world. Moreover, he felt guilty. This seemed wrong. He did not want this woman, Mary, nor any other, to feel forced to have sex with him. He wondered if they would have sex with him if the circumstances were different?

Ashley picked up on his hesitation quickly. She took his hand in hers, “Look, John, I mean… sir. I know this is a lot for you. It’s a lot for all of us. But, we all knew the risks when we signed up to come establish this colony. Nothing was certain, and we have to work with the hand dealt to us. If this colony is to survive, it will need children, and it needs them soon. It is your duty to provide the seed, and it is our duty” Ashley said gesturing to herself and the two female bodyguards “to provide the egg, that will create the children that will one day turn this small hab complex into a thriving city.” She stared into his soul and smiled reassuringly as she spoke.

John was calmed by this, and he spoke with newfound confidence. “You’re right, thank you, Ashley.” He released her hand and swiped his hand over the door controls. The door slid open with a hiss and he walked inside. The door closed behind him quickly as his eyes took a moment to adjust to the light of the lobby. It was dark, with seemingly only a handful of dimly lit lights lighting the apartment. “Hello?” He said into the darkness of the living room.

“Oh, you’re finally here. Come on in honey.” Mary responded from the living room, with the tone of a loving partner.

John walked through the small lobby into the living room, where his gaze was immediately captured by a beautiful woman sitting with her legs crossed on the couch, she wore black lingerie and held a glass of wine in her right hand. She was clearly in her mid-thirties, though her physical beauty didn’t show it. Rather, it was her demeanor and the confidence of her character. Her breasts were large, and her waist wide. He was shocked by her beauty and was left speechless. He had never been in a situation like this before.

“Hello, John. I am told that you are a virgin, is this true?” She asked in a comforting and soft tone.

John managed to compose himself. “Ye… yes I am, I’m sorry.”

“Oh, there is no need to be sorry John. I hope I can prove to make your first time memorable.” She said as she placed her wine glass on the coffee table. “The overseer told me that you are to impregnate every woman in the colony. This is an important duty, do you agree?” She said slowly, spreading uncrossing her legs to expose her inner being. [PART TWO]
