Yokohama, Tokyo, Japan, the office of the exploration division of the Interplanitary Institute for Astronautical Sciences (IIAS). The IIAS is a civilian organization with multiple government sponsors including Canada, the US, Mexico, Jamaica, Brazil, the UK, France, Holland, Germany, Russia, Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, India, China, Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand.
Osa is in the office of Division Chief Kenji Tatsumi who is reviewing the reports submitted by Osa, the request for Olanke join as Osa's assistant, the shuttle mechanic, the senior research scientist, the doctors report, and the psychologist report. As he reads he says to himself 'Uwa', 'Maa', 'Yokatta', and 'Sugoi.'
When he finishes reading everything, Kenji calls for Osa to enter his office. He looks at Osa as she stands in front of his desk and says, "Osa Oladipo of Nigeria. It's an honor to meet you. Please have a seat." After Osa sits, he continues, "First off, I'm glad to say, you passed both your medical and psychological tests. Those Mars colony bio-suites give an amazing degree of protection. We've already sent a 'thank you' to the Deep Space Mining Commission toward the crew that rescued you. We recommend some kind of commendation for there assistance."
Osa mumbles, "I've already gave them my personal thanks, but I'm sure they'll be grateful for any bonus."
Kenji raises an eyebrow and keeps taking, "The scientists are going to be busy for months working on the samples you brought back. As well as, going over the results of your your field tests."
"The shuttle mechanic recommends we dismantle your ship to reverse engineer the alien technology. I tend to agree with him. Your shuttle is getting shipped to Toronto. We're going to give you a larger ship, courier class, two levels."
"We'll contact our counterpart on the Andranian home world to arrange employment for your friend Olanke. Your going to need a pilot who can double as security. If you have someone in mind, let me know. If not, we can arrange for one. It's going to take a couple days to get the arrangements made. Any questions?"
"I have no questions. My brother is a great pilot and a design engineer. He can fill in three rolls, " replies Osa.
Kenji asks, "Any place you want to be shuttled to?"
"My brother's house. I can recruit him. His wife may want to come along. She can clean, cook, and assist with security and act as a co-pilot."
Kenji says, "Sounds like you have a crew. Keep us updated on there acceptance. We'll send for you as soon as your new ship is avaliable. It should be in 8 to 10 days."
A few hours later Osa and her luggage are being dropped off in front of her brother's house. She's greeted by her sister-in-law Quivina and there 15 month old son Ifedayo.
Ifedayo is the product of Osa and her brother, Adunbi. Being raised by Adunbi and his wife, Quivina. Giving Ifedayo a father and two mothers. When Ifedayo was conceived Quivina was there with Osa and Adunbi. Osa took three months off to help raise Ifedayo before heading out into space. Her payments are sent to an account that Adunbi has access to.

A little over a week later, Osa was in her brother's guest room, with her brother and her ex-boyfriend, Joe, who is of English birth. Joe was laying on his back at the edge of the bed, Osa is laying on Joe's chest kissing him, while Adunbi stands behind then, between there legs. Quivina is kneeling next to them, kissing Adunbi. Joe's pale 18 cm cock and Adunbi's dark brown 24 cm cock simultaneously impale Osa's tightly stretched dark brown cunny, pumping in and out of her in unison, as deep as they possibly can. Osa is in a constant state of climax, her cunny muscles milking the two massive cocks in anticipation of being filled with both of their sperms.
Osa's phone begins ringing. Quivina breaks away from her husband to answer it, "Osa's phone, this is he sister-in-law. She can't talk right now. Can I take a message?"
"No, sorry. She's a bit... uh... inconvenienced. I can take a message."
"If you really think you want to know... she's getting her cunt double stuffed by my husband and her ex-boyfriend. And if you would have called a few minutes ago, we were licking each other's pussies."
"Oh, yeah. That's what I trying to tell you."
"20 minutes. We should be done by then." Quivina hangs up the phone and says, "Her boss is going to be here in 20 minutes." Nobody seems to hear her. Quivina gets on her knees between everyone's legs and begins licking on Adunbi's and Joe's balls as they double fuck Osa's cunny. The extra sensation causes the guys to quickly cum inside Osa. Most of their combined sperms pours out of Osa's gaping cunny where Quivina is licking it up. When Quivina is done cleaning Osa's cunny, she taps Osa's ass and says, "Get dressed, your boss will be here in 5 minutes."
Osa's eyes open wide, as she jumps out of bed and starts putting on somewhat appropriate clothing, the rinses her mouth so her breath doesn't smell like her sister-in-laws pussy juice. As she is making her way down the stairs, the door bell rings. She checks her hair in the mirror before opening the door and greeting Chief Kenji Tatsumi. Behind Kenji Osa sees a ship taking up both sides of the street infront of the house and infront of the next house, as well. It's almost twice the length of her old shuttle, and has a second deck.
Kenji says, "As soon as you're ready I'll introduce you to your pilot and then we can take off."
Osa says, "I'll be back in 5 minutes."
Kenji tells her, "don't rush. Take 15 minutes. I'll be waiting on the ship."
Osa rushes back up to her now empty room, strips out of her clothes, takes a 3 minute shower, gets dressed in more appropriate work clothes, grabs her work bag she never unpacked, tells her family goodbye, and is out the door in 9 minutes.
The port side of the ship has 2 hatches, a standard boarding hatch at the bow just behind the control room, and an air lock near the aft, just before the engineering section. Osa enters the front hatch and is greeted by Kenji and the pilot, Kichijō Tennyo.
Kichijō and Osa shake hands and introduce themselves, Kichijō says, "I'm called 'Kissi' for short." Osa turns around and waves bye to her family, who are standing in the doorway of the house. Then presses the door close button.
Kenji takes Osa on a tour of the ship, starting with the control room, more than a cockpit but less than a bridge. The control room has two pilots chairs. The left pilot controls has navigation and automation systems attached. The right pilot control has combat and communications controls. At the far left end is a fold down padded bench for one guest. At the far right end is a small locker with two bio-suites and two small energy side arms. Kichijō sits in the right pilot chair saying, "This is my side, that one is yours, " pointing at the left chair.
As Kichijō flies the ship back to Japan, Kenji shows Osa the laboratory and medical section, the the area that contains the air lock and locker room one one side, and a toilet room and stairs that go up on the other, and finally the engineering section, that takes up half the lower section and a third of the upper section. There's also a simple robot that can monitor, clean, and preform rudimenty engineering functions.
On the upper level Osa sees two sleeping rooms over the bow, one sleeping room and a room that has a toilet, a sink, and a sonic shower facing aft, and finally in the open space between everything else is a small kitchenette and a small lounge that doubles as a dining area. A pantry stocked with 144 prepackaged ready to eat meals, or about 48 days of food for 3 people.
Osa tosses her luggage into the room with her name on the door, forward left. Kichijō is next to her, and Olanke will be next to the shower room.
When Kenji and Osa return to the control room, Kichijō tells them, "Strap in, we'll be landing in a couple minutes." Osa sits in the navigation chair while Kenji flips down the padded bench. When they were all secured, Kichijō requests landing permission. She's given a holding pattern, the an approach vector, and finally landing clearance for their specific landing zone.
Osa says, "That was a smooth ride and landing."
Kenji tells her, "Kissi is a Japanese Defense Force pilot that has been training on simulators for this ship. Plus after we dismantled your old shuttle, we installed all that alien technology on this ship. Our engineers learned a lot in the process. And Kissi spent the last 5 days learning every nut and bolt on this ship." They exit the ship, and hop in a golf cart that Kenji uses to drive the to the IIAS building.
Kenji hops out of the gulf cart, and Kichijō takes his place behind the steering wheel. Kenji says, "Kissi is going to take you to a hotel. We are going to stock the ship with food, water, cleaning supplies, and install a single washer/dryer unit next to the kitchen. You two will be back here around 10 in the morning for a final briefing and lunch. Everything should be ready for final inspection by 1 and, provided all is in order, launch between 2 and 3. Every 30 to 40 days you'll need to return to Earth or Andrani for debriefing, off loading, and resupply. You can also take a 48 down time at either the Gul-Sillan-Kethir resort or the pleasure planet 'Delight' also called 'Řạ§ƙạ Ōạ' by the Andranians. We have a limited account at both those locations."
� * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * -
4 days later, Kichijō and Osa are taking off from the Andranian home world with Olanke on board. In orbit of Andrania, Osa briefs Kichijō and Olanke on their first assignment. Both the IIAS and the Andranian 'Commission of Extra-Planetary Sciences' want us to go back to the planet I crashed on and do a more thorough study. We're just a few jumps out, we should be there in less than a day cycle. The basic telemetry on the planet is in the computer. Familiarize yourselves with it." Osa puts in the coordinates for Kissi to pilot.
Kichijō says, "I've read it. You were on auto pilot and away from the cockpit during a jump. A micrometeor swarm crossed your path and disabled your shuttle. You were knocked out of jump and crashed on an unexplored planet in the system. No passengers on board, just you and your pet dog. Neither of you were injured in the crash. However, you were attacked several times by creatures on the surface. You managed to repair communications and send a distress call. You were rescued by an asteroid mining ship that was and still is posted in the outer ring of the Trappist 1 star system."
Olanke says, "Wow. I don't have to read that report, now."
� * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * -
Around the red dwarf star Trappist 1 are seven planets. The fourth planet, planet E, is in the most favorable location within the stars habitable zone, and has the most Earth like conditions, including liquid water, and some high sentience, but low intelligence life forms, similar to mammals. While F and G are also in the habitable zone, they are not yet explored.
The sensers on there ship are more sensitive than those of her shuttle, and Osa is currently using them to scan for refined metal that came off her shuttle when she crashed, while Kichijō is flying.
Eventually, Osa spots an object registering as refined metal. Kichijō lands near the location on the sensors. The sensors indicate the atmosphere is 76% nitrogen, 18% oxygen, 2% carbon dioxide, 1% neon, 1% trace gasses (argon, helium, methane, krypton, hydrogen, and ozone), 2% hydrogen dioxide (water vapor). An abundance of liquid water 81% surface coverage, 1023.48 millibars of atmospheric pressure, and gravity of 9.90371 m/s. The planet would be classified as a terrestrial/ocean super-Earth. The computer suggests that humans can survive in the atmosphere for 130 minutes before death occurs, 75 minutes before falling unconscious, and 45 minutes before suffering adverse effects (dizziness, headache, blurry vision, ringing ears). Since Andranians bodies are more efficient at oxygen conservation, they have increased survival times (death @ 162.5 min, inconscious @ 87.5 min, effects @ 56.25 min).
Osa and Olanke go to the lockers next to the air lock. They both open one and find some sort of new bio-suite. Holding them up they seem to be half the size of what Osa is use to wearing. Osa says, "How are we supposed to wear this?"
Olanke giggles and says, "These are the Andranian equivalents of your bio-suites, Personal Independent Atmosphere or PIA. You have to take your clothes off and squeeze into it. They are very stretchy, so they can fit any body size or shape. And they won't puncture if they get snagged on something."
Osa being used to wearing her bio-suite with nothing under it, strips and squeezes into the PIA suit. It seals in the front, but the seam disappears once it is sealed. The hood completely wraps around to cover her face, and is the only part that's not form fitting. When she's finished dressing the PIAs begin adapting to mimic their skin colors. Olanke's PIA becomes a similar gray blue to Olanke's skin, and Osa's becomes a dark brown similar to her own skin. Not actually translucent but mimicking a nude appearance. "Where is the air scrubbing system?"
Olanke informs Osa "The entire PIA acts as an oxygenation system. So you don't have to worry about running out of breathable air."
They put on backpacks and utility belts, containing all the tools and equipment they will need, including a short range stun weapon.
Osa and Olanke open the door to the air lock, step in, and close it behind them. Because the exterior planetary environment is not much different from the interior ship environment, exchange only takes a few minutes. As the exchange is occurring, the exterior ramp lowers and extends.
The exterior hatch automatically opens when the exchange completes. Osa and Olanke walk down the ramp. From inside the control room, Kichijō has opened a small complement on the side of the ship and deployed a small four wheeled ground vehicle that can carry two people, front to back. Osa drives with Olanke sitting behind her.
As Osa drives, Olanke runs a portable scanner and directs Osa towards each peace of metal that came off of Osa's old shuttle. They stop to gather each peace until they end up at Osa's original crash site. Where they park and start collecting samples. While Olanke is collecting soil and plant samples, Osa wanders around looking for animal signs: remains, droppings, trails, or structures (nests, mounds, hives, burrows, etc.).
Eventually, Osa ends up by the stream that she bathed in the last time she was here. It's been a week since she had a water bath. The ship, like her shuttle, only has UVL/Sonic showers. Those get the dirt and dead skin off and help neutralize microbes, but nothing feels better than a water bath.
Osa sets a 45 minute timer on her belt, then takes off her gear and strips of her PIA. Before she gets in the water, Osa looks around for anything that may be dangerous or sexually aggressive to her. Once she's sure she is safe, she gets in the stream.
After taking a few samples from the water and mud, Osa heads back to where she left the rover and Olanke. Together, they head towards the little grove to try to get a sample of the thing that grabbed her.
When the arive, Osa turns on the vehicle lights, the Osa and Olanke takes off there backpacks, leaving them next to the rover. They turn on there belt light, and pull out their stunners. Osa approaches the grove slowly, Olanke follows close behind her. Osa enters the grove slowly, watching around and especially above her. Olanke's eyes are more sensitive and spots the creature first, she puts her hand on Osa's shoulder and uses her stunner to point off to the side, near the ground. A pulsating dark green wet vegetative mass that appears to be consuming some sort of small animal. It reminds Osa of a man-o-war, a colony organism, but instead of being made of zooids this is made of millions of carnivorous volvox. As a colony it's mobile and displays a higher degree of awareness than most planets, bordering on sentience.
Osa slowly raises her stunner, gets a good aim, the presses the discharge button. A tendril lashes out wildly. Osa fires a second discharge, Olanke follows with a discharge of her own stunner. The creature stops lashing out but is still pulsating on the ground. Osa keeps her stunner aimed, while Olanke takes a small sample off it's central mass. As soon as they are done, the flee quickly. They get couple samples from the outer ring of shoots, nearby grasses, and soil. Then they hop back on the rover and return to the ship.
Osa and Olanke spend the rest of that evening and half the next morning cataloging the collected samples, then placing them in a refrigerator that sits at one degree above freezing. Durring that time, Kichijō takes the rover out to do several sweeping patrols of the area around the ship.
At lunch time, they agree that they have all they samples they need for this area and should move to another location. They fly for a few minutes and decide to land at the base of a mountainous area, near a small river that feeds into a lake several kilometers down stream.
Osa stays closest to the ship, walking just a quarter of a kilometer to the river. Kichijō and Olanke take the rover and head three kilometers up hill towards a rubble pile that was formed from a landslide during the last couple stellar orbits.
Once Kichijō believes Olanke's location is safe, she takes the rover and starts scouting the region for signs of large predators.
While Osa is distracted with collecting samples and doing preliminary field tests, she doesn't notice a dark figure watching her from the shadows of a nearby clumping of trees and shrubbery.
Olanke has hit a fossil treasure horde. Dozens, possibly hundreds, of what she believes is ancient sea life. She doesn't notice a dark figure watching her from the shadows of much larger boulders quite some distance further up the mountain.
Kichijō stops at several game trails, and only finding droppings from small animals. Until she been out about an hour, she feels like she's completed about half her intended circuit. On this stop she finds a bone yard, patches of thick heavy fur some black, some dark brown, some with traces of red. Kichijō concludes there's at least three large predators that use this area as a dumping site for bones of food they have finished. A trash heap or possibly a dinning area. Sone sort of high level sentence or low level intelligence. She collects the hair and some of the bones, in small bags, then continues on.
Osa hears the snap of something wood like. She realizes that the natural sounds nearby have stopped. She pulls out her taser and looks around, but sees nothing. She slowly backs away a few steps, picks up her backpack, and turns to run. To her dismay, as soon as she turns, she slams into a furry tree that wasn't there a moment before. The collision causes Osa to stumble backwards and trip over a rock. She falls on her back, and bumps her head on the ground, dropping her backpack in the process.
Olanke has moved further uphill, dusting and rinsing at delicate fossils. Completely absorbed in her work, she doesn't notice the shadow that looms across her until a sharp pain shoots through her skull, followed by darkness.
An hour later, Kichijō gets back around to the spot where Osa is supposed to be working, but all she finds is Osa's backpack and stunner. Shouting out, she gets no response. Kichijō calls for Osa over the headset, when she gets no response she calls for Olanke, but again gets nothing. Kichijō drives to the ship to uses the sensors to detect the locations of Osa and Olanke.
� * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * -
Osa wakes up in a matted down, nest like, thicket of plants. She sees Olanke, unconscious, near by. From behind her, there is a grunt-like growling sound. Osa feels something grab her ribs, and flip her over so he is on her stomach, the it grabs her hips and pulls her so her knees are under her and her butt is raised up.
The thing behind her presses his sex organ to hers, the begins pushing in, the PIA stretches to match. It's cock is many centimeters longer than she's used to and brutally girthy, and it's thrusting into her with no signs of stopping. Her brother's 24 cm cock, she can take easily, but not this one.
She looks over her shoulder at the big, hairy beast positioned behind her. It's like nothing she's ever seen before. He's body shape is similar to an ape, wide-shoulders, covered in thick, black course hair that's longer than hers. A mouthful of pointy, green fangs suggest he is the farthest thing from human, though his rounded facial features indicate ape-like similarities. Over sized witless eyes peer at her from within his furry face, roaming up and down her body like he's appraising his next meal.
He continues to push himself into her, watching the spot where there bodies are merged with euphoric fixation. His erection is easily as long as her forearm and just as thick.
The monster doesn't stop. He claims those last several centimeters of her already-stretched cunny, and now he's fully seated inside of her. She cries out as he hits bottom.
He's so... Fucking... Big!
She wants to scream for help, but she can't.
A tightness coils in her lower belly. Her body is preparing for an orgasm, her pussy grips the beast's cock and doesn't let go.
"Oh, God, " she breathe, realizing she's being fucked by an alien ape.
His cock slides out, and for a moment she can breathe.
Then, he slams into her... hard.
She yells out. Olanke wakes up from the noise.
With one hand tightly holding her hips and the other pressing down between her shoulder blades to keep her in place for him, he fucks her hard and fast. Guttural noises reminiscent of animal rutting sounds come from behind her. She's harshly conscious of every muscle and vein of his thick cock dragging against her inner walls, the PIA forming to fit his cock. Heavy balls slap wetly against her sensitive clit.
She can't breathe, because she knows what's going to happen. The tension in her lower abdomen gets stronger and stronger, and she screams right before the climax slams her. She's spasming within his grip, gushing all over his cock. The beast hisses in disapproval and grips her hips tighter, certainly irritated by her jerky movements.
He grunts and releases a dozen bursts of hot semen into her.
When he eventually pulls out, huge amounts of steaming fluids cascades down her thighs.
Olanke pulls out her stunner and shoots the beast behind Osa, which falls unconscious. A second best stands and roars, trying to intimidate the tiny females into submission, but ends up getting stunned instead. Osa and Olanke rush out of the nest area, hurry down a well used path, and out of the denser part of the forest. As the trees then the hear a roar from behind them, followed by the pounding of heavy a creature smashing through the forest behind them.
As Osa and Olanke run, their PIAs increase the oxygen transfer rate to match their needs. It also begins cooling down, maintaining their standard body temperatures. This gives them the stamina to keep running.
A second roar belows out from the right followed by one from the left. The beast behind them is getting closer. They're being surrounded, but they can't see the creatures chasing them.
Another roar to there left, this time closer. Osa and Olanke vear right, Olanke fires a stun bolt blindly behind them. A rock comes flying from the trees, striking a tree next to them. A tree branch snaps behind them. A figure moves between the trees to there right. Something growls to there left. They are being surrounded by the three beasts, but they keep running.
Olanke sees movement to her right and fires a stun bolt in that direction. A rock hits her in the back, knocking her down.
Osa stops to check on Olanke, and sees the beast that's been chasing them. Osa grabs Olanke's stuner, but when she aims to shoot, the beast is gone. Osa hears a noise in the trees above her and fires three scattered shots. She's hit in the shoulder by a rock from another angle, causing her to drop to stunner and the stunner to get tossed a short distance.
The beast's to the left and the right, step out from their cover and move towards the two females. The one in the tree makes a series of excited sounds and movements.
A bolt of light streaks out of the trees and strikes the beast in the trees. It falls roughly 7 meters. A second bolt of light strikes the beast to Osa's left, causing it to collapse. The last creature disappears into the forest.
Kichijō steps out from a high patch of shrubbery, carrying a high powered energy rifle. Kichijō asks, "Are you injured? Can you walk?"
Osa says, "My shoulder is bruised but I'll be fine. Can you help Olanke?" Osa picks up Olanke's stunner and fires a shot randomly in the direction the third creature was last seen. Then Kichijō and Osa help Olanke back to the rover.
Back at the ship's medical center, Kichijō help Osa and Olanke strip out of their PIAs and get into a pool of mending gel and put on relaxation caps, that work together to accelerates their bodies self-repair system and mental recuperation.
While Osa and Olanke recover, Kichijō collects, processes, and catalogs all the collected samples from their backpacks and the gamete from Osa's PIA.
After 30 minutes, Osa's relaxation caps rises up, most of the mending gel is drains into a storage container for later use if needed. Osa emerges covered in a thin film of slimy mending gel. She sees Olanke in the other pool, and Kichijō at the cataloging station. Osa steps into the emergency shower, pulls the chain and gets a 30 second rinse.
Kichijō looks up and watches Osa rinse off, admiring her fit and petite figure. Similar to her own. Osa smiles and waves as she steps out of the rinse. Kichijō waves back, then returns to cataloging as Osa walks to the stairs.
Osa hopes into the sonic shower to get the rest of the gel and water off of her body. When that's done, Osa goes to her room, puts on a sheer yellow cami and sheer yellow mini skirt.
As Osa is going back down, she sees a naked Olanke coming up.
Olanke stops and tells her, "That's a great look. The color contrast between the material and your skin is pleasantly striking."
Osa says, "Thank you. The wet look seems to suit you well."
Olanke blushes and says, "Let me put on something comfortable."
Ar the bottom of the steps Osa yells out, "Kissi, the days over. Time to relax."
Kichijō stops what she's doing, and follows Osa up to the living level. Kichijō notices that Osa's not wearing any underwear and can see her naked butt and cunny under her skirt. At the top Kichijō sees Olanke walking out of the showers still completely nude. Kichijō and Olanke go to their respective sleeping rooms. While Olanke is putting on her sleeping gown, Kichijō is taking off her day clothes and slips on a short blue and pink silk mini kimono over her naked body, then proceeds to the sonic shower.
Osa and Olanke are waiting for Kichijō at the dining table when Kichijō steps out of the restroom. She sees Olanke is wearing a sheer red long top, next to Osa in in her sheer yellow cami and sheer yellow mini skirt. Kichijō feels almost over dressed. Osa says, "Dinner is ready, Kimmi."
After they drink their high protein dietary supplemental shake. They move over to the entertainment area, Osa in-between Kichijō and Olanke. Osa orders a video to play on the projector wall. The movie is about a human woman living and working on the Andranian home world, Andrani, as an undercover agent, that falls in love with an Andranian male who is part of a criminal organization.
On Andrani, sex and nudity are not shunned as they are on Earth. So the sex scenes in the movie are more graphic and realistic than what is typical of a standard Earth movie, and more like soft porn edited down to 200 seconds, but with a purpose as part of the greater story.
It's during one of these scenes that Osa and Olanke start rubbing each other's pussies. It takes a moment before Kichijō realizes what they are doing. Olanke stops Osa and they both look at Kichijō looking at them. Then Osa leans over and starts kissing Kichijō's neck. Kichijō says, "What are you doing to me?" Before Osa can answer, Kichijō feels Olanke kneeling between her legs and undoes the tie of her mini kimono.
It's not long until all three women are naked, kissing each other's lips, suckling each other's nipples, and eventually forming a triangle, licking each other's pussies.
In the middle of the night, they are all awakened by a banging sound on the exterior of their ship. The three women untangle their bodies and make their way to the control room. Looking out the view port they see small rocks and large branches flying out of the darkness from multiple directions and hitting their ship. Osa turns on the perimeter lights, while Kichijō activates the flight shields, which are meant to stop low energy particles and space debris from impacting the ship. Osa mumbles to herself, " stupid space apes." Then the each make their way to their own rooms and go back to sleep.
The next morning, Osa, Olanke, and Kichijō get dressed and meet in the dining area for breakfast. Turkey Jerky bacon and dehydrated instant eggs. Afterwards, they look around outside, and see a lot of debris piled up around the perimeter created by the shields. The decide to collect samples from another land mass, along a beach next to the ocean. Where they can set shallow water traps for sea life collection.
The remainder of the assignment goes by without any other hostile encounters. The fill all their sample containers with several days to spare. Before returning to Earth, Osa convinces them to try a couple cycles at the pleasure resort Delight.
