After an hour of drinking hard, all thedies in the group were high in spirits. All but one that is. Janine had been drinking in silence after the bombshell Kathrine dropped on her. Finally after sitting and drinking the entire time, she built up enough courage to yell.


    "You knew I was a Sepiida the whole time?!?" Her sudden outburst caught Kathrine off guard due to her silent disposition. "Well yes Janine, I would not be good at my job if I did not know everything about my employees now would I?"


    Janine''s eyes began the waterworks as she looked at Kathrine, her sobbing caught the attention of the other girls now who looked on in confusion.


    It was Rhea who came and sat next to the Sepiidan woman and began stroking her back. "What is wrong Janine? We have been having such a nice time."


    Janine''s bottom lip began to quiver as she prepared to exin herself. "Its, Its. Your mom she, she hates me-he-he-he!" Janine began to cry again as she turned and hugged Rhea forfort.


    Rhea began stroking the woman''s back and looked at her mother inquiringly. Kathrine was equally puzzled by Janine''s outburst and wanted to get to the bottom of it. "Janine honey, when have I ever said that I hate you?"


    Janine felt soothed in Rhea''s arms, they felt strong while still being feminine. After a short moment she exined. "You always go on about how you hate Sepiidans and always calling them bad names. It is not fair! I have done nothing to you and It hurts every time because I respect you so much!"


    Kathrine felt a panic in her heart after hearing Janine''s reasoning. She does say that a lot. "Oh honey I am sorry." Kathrine said as she moved over and manipted Janine''s head from her daughters shoulder onto her breast and began to stroke her silver hair. "I should never have said those things in front of you.


    The truth is I don''t actually hate all Sepiidans, just three sluts by the name of Megara, Talia and Bethany."


    Janine felt soothed having heard that and Replied. "Really? *Sniffle* That is good to hear. Although the words you call them still hurt as although I try to hide my nature around strangers, I am still a Sepiidan." Kathrine continued stroking Janine''s hair with a motherly affection. "I am sorry once more sweetie.


    The truth is, I do forget you are Sepiidan from time to time as you are an outlier among your kin Janine. As such I did not feel the need to censure myself around you, though I should have done as you are Apollo''s best friend and thest thing I should do is hurt your feelings."


    Janine smiled at hearing that and enjoyed the caresses and the boob pillow below her a little while longer. As she was lying there however, Ke, who was many drinks in, looked at Janine hatefully for a moment.


    ''I should be Apollo''s best friend! Fuck friends! Who make love day and night and day and night and day and night and...''


    Felling better, Janine finally sat up and looked Kathrine in the eyes. "So you really don''t hate me?" Janine felt as though a heavy chain had been removed from her heart as she watched shake her head.


    "No Janine, now enough with this sombre atmosphere , it will ruin my buzz if it goes on any longer. How about instead we get crazy?"


    As Kathrine said that, she reached for her clutch and began taking out sealed baggies with various pills and powders. She would have dumped in all out at one to make a spectacle, but her prized possession was in her clutch as well and she needed to keep that a secret.


    Janine looked at the table in shock. She had never seen so many drugs before. Despite being mercenaries, Caleb ran a pretty clean ship and only allowed alcohol on board. Therefore seeing so many drugs, Janine had no idea what to do.


    Rhea on the other hand had a smile stered across her face. "Mom I swear sometimes I think we have sort of Psychiclink like those bugs have. Rhea said as she dumped her clutch out and revealed even more drugs.


    The humans and the Sepiidan in the room were so enamoured by the amount of substance on the table, that they did not see the displeasure among the otherdies at their race and family being called mere bugs.


    Proving that they did however, possess a Psionic link and despite being individuals, they were also the same being, they all thought in unison. '' Only Apollo gets to call us bugs.''


    As Willow looked at the pile on the table, she said aloud. "Rhea, I can scarcely remember thest time I have seen so many drugs, perhaps thest time was straight after our training wasplete and we went to that party?"


    "Oh yeah, I remember that babe, I also remember striking out multiple times as people could not understand my way of flirting." Rhea responded with a frown as she remembered before she reached for a pill. "How about we start off light with some Takot to increase our buzz and work our way up the totem poll so to speak?" She said addressing the room.


    "I''m game." Willow said. "You party like your mother child, I am both proud and disappointed." Kathrine said with a smile. Janine smiled worriedly. "I am not really sure what to do, so I will let you pace me ok?" She said to Rhea who simply nodded at her.


    Rhea then turned her gaze towards Samantha. "I may look prim and proper now, but before I became Sophia''s assistant I used to do all the drugs you have ever heard of within the confines of Spartari space, this little pile is just a casual bit of fun to me." Samantha said as she reminisced a moment. ''Goodness, I have not thought about my junkie life for years now. How long ago was it now? 20?


    40 years?'' Time had lost meaning to her thanks to her genomespatibility with the hive as she had long stopped ageing before her full conversion.


    While Samantha reminisced, Onyx looked at the pile in front of her. ''Cant have that, no, no, yes that will be fine, no, yes, yes, no.'' She was ruling out all drugs that would affect her brain in ways she did not want. She already has a hard time every day keeping her emotions in check, adding fuel to the fire was thest thing she needed. "Sure I will partake in some of these." Onyx spoke slowly.


    Finally as everyone turned to look at Ke, they saw her finish snorting some blue and pink powder she had already picked up off the table. As she looked up and saw everyone staring at her. "Oh right bottom of the totem pole, sorry. Like I said, lets get shit faced!"


    Fast forwarding to 5 hourster, The group of women were out in the main club area, dancing like there was no tomorrow. As Janine was dancing , grinding up against both Kathrine and Rhea, She noticed something out of the corner of her dted eye.


    Willow and Ke had separated from the dancing and were standing by the bar. Ke was whispering something into Willows ear and the pink haired girl bit her lip suggestively before nodding her head.


    Ke then smiled and took Willow by the hand and begun leading her behind the bar to the elevator.


    "Where do you think they are going?" Janine asked her red headed dance partners. Kathrine looked over and simply shrugged her shoulders while Rhea responded. "They are probably finding a ce to fuck, Ke has been flirting with Willow all night so it makes sense."


    Kathrine found that highly unlikely and wanted to vocalise her thoughts, but something she took an hour ago has prevented her from being able to speak, so she just shrugged her shoulders again and continued dancing.


    Janine also found it unlikely, but was in her own form of paradise right now dancing with two hot chicks and forgot the matterpletely in moments.


    The only one that ended up intrigued was Onyx who at that very moment expelled all the toxins out of her system and spat them in a nearby ss to sober herself up and decided to follow what could be an interesting turn of events.


    …


    Now inside the elevator, Ke had a frown on her face as Willow began humming. "Wow I love this song!" Ke rolled her eyes. ''Try listening to it every day and then see how you feel.''


    Thankfully, the elevator dinged open and Ke took Willow by the hand and took a corridor away from where she usually does her day job. The hallway came to a close and at the end was arge vault door.


    "Wow, that is bigger than some bank vaults I have seen, what is inside?" Willow could not help but to ask.


    Ke shed a heart-warming smile towards Willow that would have dropped any defences the woman had if she was not so hopped up and stated.


    "Like I said upstairs, the Key to your wants and desires."
