BXBX NOVEL Chapter 204: Leg
I proceeded to close my eyes and probe into her Mindspace. I massaged her defences and made my way inside. Janine\'s Mindspace was much much smaller compared to mine, so I could see her immediately from my position. She seemed enthralled by what was around her and only noticed me once I grew closer.
Upon recognising me however, her eyes went wide and she proceeded to grab her head as she fell to her knees. I was not panicked as she did this as I expected something like this to happen.
"A-Apollo, what is happening." Janine said through gritted teeth. I walk over and crouch down beside her. My voice seemed different in this Mindspace. Louder, deeper and had its own echo. "Your Mind feels heavy correct? This is to be expected.
You are just starting out and now you are supporting a more powerful being inside of your mind. It is to be expected and has happened to me. I am sorry for the discomfort, but I did this so you will actually rest once I leave instead of carrying on. You accomplished something incredible today and I am proud of you."
Janine smiled weakly as I said that and felt a tingling in her stomach from the praise. "Apollo?" She said cutely. "Yes?" I replied. "Can you get out of my head now? I think I am about to pass out."
I smiled at Janine before I dissapeared before her very eyes. Once I was gone, Janine felt a literal weight being removed from her mind and sighed in relief. Just as she was about to open her eyes, she thought she heard something. She looked around confused before her eyes made contact with the blue and green spec not to far from her. Her origin?

Janine was about to investigate, but a wave of fatigue hit her like a brick to the face and she forced herself out of her Mindspace, which was infinitely easier then entering.
Once the Mindspace was empty once again, a voice that held no substance spoke, originating from the Blue and green spec, It seemed however, that the spec was to insignificant rendering the voice inaudible to the one that needed to hear it.
…
As Janine opened her eyes, She looked disorientated and her body began to shiver. As she tried to get up, I pushed her down onto the bed while picking up a bottle I had prepared earlier. "Stay still and drink this." I said as I operated the bottle for her until she had enough.
"Sorry for pushing you over the edge at the end, but it was how I was trained. I\'ll stay here with you for a few until you fall asleep ok?" I said comforting her. Janine only half heard what I said as she nodded her head, her eyes already shutting from her fatigue.
As I put the quilt over her and began to stroke her hair, I realised by her breathing pattern that she had fallen asleep almost instantly. I felt a moment of pride as I stared down at the sleeping Sepiidan as in a way, she was my student.
\'Goodness, if she heard me call her my student, she would slap me silly.\' I chuckled at my own thought before I stood up and left the woman to sleep.
After leaving the apartment, I took the elevator up to my own as I was starving and could do with a bite to eat. As the elevator opened, I could hear discussions coming from the dining area.
Making my way there, I could here the discussion more clearly. "Orchid, will you stop only eating the thigh, its rude not to share." I heard Sophia say. Orchid did not respond, most likely because she had stuffed her face with chicken thigh.
"Relax mom, if you don\'t eat quickly you will just be left with the foot hahaha!" I heard another voice. \'Oh Jinx is here? Cool she seemed nice.\' I finally reached the dining room and as I entered I spoke loudly. "Right, so what\'s for dinner I am starving I hope there is-"
I paused as I stared at the three table goers, upon hearing my voice, they all stopped eating and stared at me. I ignored them however as I inspected what was on the table.
On a long silver plate was a large piece of meat. Now usually on those types of plate you would see a succulent roasted pig or something, but I was not ready to see what was clearly a mans leg with chunks of flesh ripped out with bites. \'The fuck have I just walked into?\'
"Actually on second thoughts, I have lost my appetite. I\'m going to go take a shower, you enjoy yourselves." I said as I took one last gross look at the leg. "Bleh."
The look of revulsion I displayed upon looking at the three of them shook both Sophia and Jinx to their cores. They were both shook, they had not even noticed that Orchid was still calmly eating her chunk of thigh.
"So, Apollo is aware we eat people right?" Jinx asked Sophia. "Yes of course he does, though we usually eat processed biomass in front of him. Maybe he just blocked out the thought of eating actual body parts. Oh no, what if he starts to hate us. We were just eating a member of his species in front of him!"
Upon hearing that, jinx jolted in shock before she stood up and started walking away. "Where are you going?" Sophia asked. "Doing what I do best, run away from my problems. I can\'t deal with that look again if I see it I will cry my tits off. Let me know if things take a turn for the better later through the link, I am going to go hole myself up in a room and drink myself to sleep."
Sophia stood still in a daze for a moment watching the back of her \'daughter\' walk away from her. After Jinx was gone, Sophia sat back down, perplexed by what to do. She began fidgeting while staring at the leg in front of her. Her mind began to race and she started to breathe heavily. "Fuck it!" She yelled as she left the dining room as she gave chase to go find Apollo upstairs.
Meanwhile Orchid continued to eat the leg in front of her. \'MMmh this is a good leg, very rich genome.\' She then rolled her eyes as she watched Sophia leave the table. A victorious smile appeared on her lips.
"Foolish Sophia, now Orchid can eat the whole leg while you deal with something that has already happened to us years ago." She giggled evilly before she pulled the plate towards her and just started going ham on the leg.
As Sophia made her way upstairs, true to her sweets words, she could hear the shower running as she entered her room. Sophia began to strip herself down and proceeded to check herself out in the mirror to make sure she looked as best as she could. She messed around with her long blonde hair a moment before she decided to tie it back so it wouldn\'t get in the way.
As she entered the bathroom, she heard her sweet singing a tune she was not familiar with, even so, to her it sounder perfect even though the water noise blocked out the words currently. Since the shower was so large, she managed to enter without Apollo realising as he continued his singing.
"♪-For the voyage is long and the winds don\'t blow and the winds don\'t blow. And its time for us to leave her. Leave her Johnny leave her! Oh leave her-♪"
Sophia\'s heart shrieked in fear thinking Apollo was singing his feelings. "NO! My Love Please Don\'t leave us! I promise I will never eat meat biomass again in all of my life, just please don\'t I love you too much!"
As Sophia shouted this and gave me the fright of my life, She clutched against my leg so much tighter then even Jinx held my arm earlier, luckily my legs were made of sturdier stuff. The woman was bawling her eyes out as she continuously increased her grip while whispering please over and over.
I was beyond confused as to what was happening. \'She was just downstairs eating a moment ago, why is she suddenly hysterical?\' I needed to get to the bottom of this as my chest suddenly felt tight with guilt.
"Love, can you explain to me why you are crying? I am very confused and it pains me to see you in this state?"
