The hivemind is conquering for me?

Wearing full surgical scrubs, we entered the surgical suite. The three of us were told by Yacob not to touch anything unless instructed. That was fine by me, I just wanted to see the dead body up close.

Getting a look at its muscle structure, even without my goggles, would give me insights on how they worked and bulked up. That didn’t mean I would be using Drakoshi elements in my splicing, it just meant I had a better understanding of how they worked which could be applied in other species’.

In the middle of the room on top of an operating table was a body covered in a sheet. Being biped, you could mistake the body for a human, if you ignore the fact it was ten feet tall. Much shorter than Grimshank, which was Onyx stalker form height, but was still much larger than I was. I was roughly up to its chest in height while it was two to three times wider than I was in pure bulk muscle.

Yacob then turned to me and another and asked us to remove the cover before he addressed the observation room.

”Hello again everyone. To save everyone from a boring Science lesson about all the intricate parts of a Drakoshi, we will only be showing you the major differences between us and them, aside from the obvious factor of us being much more attractive He-he-he.”

The sheet was removed as he turned around and the Drakoshi on the table was naked. No armour. Its knees were in the breeze, not even any undies. Giving a hasty look up at the observation room as I was sure everyone would be thinking the same thing, The women present were looking on while both giggling and with disgust with the men looking on with more of a mixed bag of emotions. I heard one of them even yell.

”Whuff! Imagine one of those on a human! That would be the dream! Instead it’s on that ugly fucker!

’I guess despite the length, it’s still an alien. The women folk are not interested in the Drakoshi.’ I thought, getting a response from Onyx. ’And why would they be, my everything? Yours put this one to shame anyway.’

I decided to ignore Onyx’s flirting and listened as Yacob began and quite literally grabbed the Drakoshi dong. ”Let’s get this out of the way. Once a Drakoshi is finished growing in strength to the point they no longer need the armour, every single one of them, being clones. Have the exact same genital anatomy. We aren’t sure why clones need a penis when they show zero sexual tendencies, or why their penile anatomy is so similar to ours, but each one does grow one exactly nine point eight four inches long, both erect and flaccid, with the girth of four point five inches also being the same. And that is throughout all heights, even ol’ Grimshank.

Now what is interesting is look directly underneath the shaft and you will notice the distinct lack of testicles. The Drakoshi’s internal temperatures are perfect for their mountain oysters so they don’t need to descend. So don’t try and punch a Drakoshi in its bits, it won’t work.”

Yacob then dropped a cloth over the Drakoshi’s dong to prevent distraction while he moved onto the creature’s hand. ”Here we have a Drakoshi’s hand. Like a good amount of alien biped species, a key factor is opposable thumbs. Drakoshi have these as well as five digits like us. Their nails, however, are sharp, elongated and as durable as tungsten. About an inch long on average for a 3 meter like this one, they can do some serious damage. Though even a weaker Drakoshi can rip you in half if they get their hands on you, as I assume a lot of you know.”

Some present in the observation room began to look at their metal augments, clearly knowing first-hand what a Drakoshi is capable of.

”Next up the feet. Clawed, for extra grip and wide to help support their massive frames as a result of their large frames, their leg muscles are also incredibly strong making it so the massive oafs can reach some incredible charging speeds.

Yacob then moved around the body and arrived at the Drakoshi’s head and began to molest its cheeks as he looked up at the observation room. ”Now, for those with the memory retention of more than five minutes, you might recall what red eyes meant for Drakoshi? Anyone?”

”They are part of the Vim clan?”

”Yes Miss Night, very good. This one was also a Drakoshi of the Vim clan.” He then turned to one of the assistants and asked. ”Can you hold its mouth open for me? And don’t let go or else.”

He then turned back to the observation room. ”Next up we will have a look at the Drakoshi’s mouth. Fun fact, the Drakoshi’s Jaw is structured in such a way that when not active, or in this case, dead. It latches shut tight, making it very difficult to open. Not too dissimilar to our own bite reflex such as when sustaining a sudden brain injury. Sometimes it takes the use of a crowbar to pry open a mouth in that case, but with a Drakoshi it’s even more intense and- do you need a hand?” He asked, turning round as the one he asked to open the Drakoshi’s mouth was struggling to keep it open.

The man simply nodded and he asked the other helper to help out.

Yacob then took a moment and picked up a tool next to the operating table and looked back at the observation room. ”Now, A Drakoshi’s front teeth are thick and sharp. They look like large sharp triangles and can do some serious damage, though that being said a Drakoshi will not use their teeth much, if ever, in combat. Our current theory on this is that they are a last backup weapon if all else fails. Their back teeth however are molars not too similar to a bovine and you won’t be able to see this in the observation room, but they have a small dental pad in their mouths which is fascinating. Their entire mouth system is a carnivore, herbivore, omnivore blend. Making them capable of shovelling anything into their mouth and they will get the job done.”

He then turned back to the helpers and declared. ”You two, hold it very steady, I need to extract some teeth for some research later. Apollo, are you capable of performing an autopsy opening?”

I nodded my head. I had the knowledge of how to do one. I had just never done one on a biped before. ’Should be easier though.’ I thought.

”Great, laser scalpel is over there, set it to three and that should be enough to get through its skin, perform the Y and leave it there.”

Doing as Yacob instructed I picked up the Laser scalpel and set it to three. I then had no idea what the thing did so I clicked the button that I assumed activated it and sure enough a small blue laser emerged from the end in the shape of a small blade.

’Oh that’s cute.’ I thought and resisted the urge to press it against my skin to see what it would do. Instead I did the smart thing and pushed it into the Drakoshi’s sternum and was surprised by the resistance.

”Oh, you will feel some resistance, Apollo. Their skin is incredibly thick. Just give it a moment to tear through and you will be alright.” Yacob explained, clearly knowing what I was thinking. I nodded and continued slowly from the sternum down to the pelvis.

It made sense though. Normal needles couldn’t pierce my skin anymore. Things needed to be sharper or of a higher quality material. So it made sense that this light grey hide would resist tools designed for cutting.

’Though with Zircon this would be trivial- Oh by Jewels tits! What is that smell!’ I said and pulled away. The other two helpers were gagging at this point, but Yacob seemed unfazed and spoke to the observers while continuing to perform the teeth pulling.

”For those out of the loop. A Drakoshi decays at a rate much faster than humans. This one here was killed about an hour ago and was put in this room minutes afterwards. Luckily for you all, you don’t currently have to smell the smell of this room right now, but it is revolting.”

I continued to perform the cuts in silence, but the other two assistants were dry heaving every few seconds. Fortunately for them, Yacob had finished turning the Drakoshi into a gummer at this point and declared. ”You three are welcome to leave if you desire the smell is- oh there they go.” Yacob said as he watched his two assistants leave, he then turned to his third and asked. ”You don’t wish to leave?”

I shook my head. ”And miss the magic up close? Not on your life. Plus would you believe me if I said I’ve smelled worse things than this?”
