Jed remembered the Captains remark and struggled to keep it uppermost in his mind “Jed these artefacts are unique, I need some one of your calibre to guard them” That was why he was left behind; he had been given a vital task! Try as he might the Sergeants voice butted in “Only someone of your ability can guard these from the risks of this planet!” It had taken Jed a while, but the significance of the grumbled words was dawning on him. 

In the weeks they had been here, not one living thing larger than a mouse had been seen. The intelligent race that once ran the massive complexes had disappeared without leaving any trace. Jed squashed a bug under his space corps boot; having eliminated that threat he relaxed and stopped assuming the guard position. The helmet was whipped off and spun into the far corner of the storeroom; he rested the phaser rifle on the desktop beside the comms station. Sighing he slumped into the sculpted chair “What a loser” Jed muttered to the unhearing walls. It had always been the same; no one had ever given him a chance. Well thinking about it some had, and some had even recovered from the experience. When it came to success “walking disaster” was his only accolade. 

The slow winking was just noticeable at the periphery of his vision and it interrupted his depression. Turning his head he saw the light was coming from one of the artefacts, the silver band glowed centrally with an alluring violet light. In all the hours he had stared into the storeroom, nothing like this had happened. Instinctively he reached out and touched the glowing metal, it felt so natural like it was a part of him. Quickly he scanned the room and corridor, in case anyone was watching, then he cursed his own foolishness; other than Jenna in the sick bay they were all on the away team. More calmly he explored the surface of the object with his fingertips. As they reached a point opposite the glowing region the band separated “Christ, I’ve busted it!” Jed thought fearfully, although he tried, he could not rejoin the ends.

Concentrating wildly he studied the metal attempting a repair before the team returned. His fingers felt some indentations on the surface, squinting hard he could just make out a pattern, no it was pictorial instructions. Hands touching band, band opening – yup right so far – and then a balloon with the closed band on it. The balloon had a large hole at the bottom, realisation dawned; it was a head, all he had to do was put the band on his head and it would be fixed! In an instant it was fixed, Jed felt it snuggle against his hair and seal shut; it was getting a bit tight, painfully so. A second later the pain was gone, and a relieved Jed reached up to remove it from his head. To his amazement his fingers touched the bare skin of his forehead – it was gone. First he’d broken, and now he’d lost one the artefacts he was supposed to be guarding! Jed stood and searched desperately around the chair, across the floor, no it was gone!

The shower spray hit the tousled hair with force; after a couple of days confined to a sick bed this felt so good. Jenna extended an elegant arm towards the recessed nozzle “Shampoo” she commanded quietly, and a green pool gathered in the palm of he left hand. Vigorously she scrubbed her lank hair, wondering what to do with the rest of the day; she felt fully recovered now, but she had woken late. Great, left alone on a deserted ship with nothing to do, and nothing to expend her energy on. She swung around, the hot water stinging her naked back “Ship status, crew status” she requested of the blank metal wall in front of her. A patch of metal level with her eyes first became bright sliver and then cleared showing the requested information

: Ship ISVS-1987 Victory: Location System 17Q, Quadrant 2, sector 1: Planet Unclassified 1092.687 East 9807.234 South: Status Landed, normal, code green.
: Crew 18: Status 16 away team, 2 on board.

“Status, boarded crew” Jenna enquired

: Boarded crew: Jenna Hardy, Sick room, shower: Jed Nelson, Storeroom 12, Guard duty.

Jenna smiled, so they had left the dork – good move, the guy was good for nothing. Her smile broadened into a grin, well maybe something; dork he maybe but his body was hard and he had a certain visual appeal. Yes it would soon be time to work of some of this excess energy.

Jed stood rapidly from his squatting position, a little too quickly his head span. He reached a hand out to the back of the chair and steadied himself. He had to stop panicking, and clear his muzzy head. Jed blinked twice and the second time he opened his eyes the room had vanished. He was zooming through a darkened tunnel; up ahead far in the distance he could just make out a faint glimmering light. Swiftly the glimmer approached and became clearer, it wasn’t one light it was many, a dark circle with star like bright spots. The spots became larger, much larger than him, until to his astonishment he went into one of the wide holes of light.

The roar was tremendous; he was vortexing down a foaming waterfall towards some sort of field, with a dark brown crop growing luxuriously all over it. Fear clutched at his heart, this was going to hurt, he Jed was about to die! As always his analysis of the situation was wrong, he merely bounced on the springy crop and smelt its distinctive smell – clean shampooed hair, his mind went into melt down, where the hell was he? 

As the thoughts raced through his mind his descent continued. Sliding steadily down the tangle of hair, and into free space for an instant before landing on a cushioned cheek. The friction of the skin slowed his progress down Jenna’s body, and he felt his being spread out across the warm inviting surface. Idly he felt one hand descend to the growing lump in his groin. He felt parts of his consciousness slip lovingly into the open pores flowing forever downwards.  More resistance built up braking is speed; the surface beneath him became spongier, and then unexpectedly hard. His erection bulged as he sensed himself slide around either side the stiffened bud. He cruised to the very apex of the erect nipple and flew tumbling into the humid air.

Moments later he bounced on the downy skin of Jenna’s muscular abdomen, mingling with the fine hairs. Even at this distance he was aware of the scent, a heady, heavy musk; his jerking hand went into frenzy as he headed toward the dark delta between Jenna’s parted thighs. As he dissolved into the warm recesses between the parted lips his orgasm began it peaked as he enveloped the smooth domed organ that nestled in the furrow of Jenna’s desire.

Jenna finished her shower and headed for storeroom 12, to her chagrin the room was deserted, Jed had gone whacking off – yet again! This was serious - going AWOL on guard duty had to be reported. Her bare foot slid on something warm and slimy fouling the floor, she glanced down seeing not only the small damp patch but also a dull metal band. Carefully she picked up the artefact and replaced on the shelf. That idiot maybe lost now, but he would pay for it when he was found “What a loser” Jenna sighed to the unhearing walls.

Jed was indeed lost, totally and hopelessly lost. However he felt a bitter success. Jed was the first to find the whereabouts of the planets former inhabitants.
