I walked with my men out of our quarters. They were intent on finding Hannah before she left. She had


    probably gone to the main exit for the women. The men usually stayed away from there.


    Our rooms were close to the women’s area, so it wasn’t a long walk. We made it swiftly to the exit the


    men were looking for. Hannah and Ra stood talking to a burly woman. From where we stood we could


    hear the woman warning them against harming Basin and his Brothers.


    “I only wished to see my female breeder,“ Hannah said politely.


    “We are much too young to breed and your men are in no danger around us. They are friends of my


    male breeder. I would not harm those close to him; it would anger my female breeder.”


    The woman noticed us then. She turned and looked at us sharply and asked why we were here.


    Damien spoke calmly, “I wished to see this female, Mistress. It is a custom on Earth that I should be


    concerned with my offspring’s well-being. If my female offspring expects this, I felt it would be


    appropriate. Hannah’s happiness is my only concern.”

    The woman Hannah had been talking to seemed surprised. Damien’s logic was wless. He was only


    here for the good of a female. That was a very eptable reason for his visit.


    “This is the custom?” the woman asked Hannah.


    “Yes, on Earth a male would have helped to raise me. It is not expected here, but my male breeder


    understands this strange custom through his ve. It fills a need within me to know him,” Hannah said


    politically. Therge female considered us all for a moment before she spoke.


    “Visit when you are here,” she told Hannah, “but do not harm my men. Do not let your Earth heritage


    hinder you, but this is not objectionable to me.”


    The woman took off out of the mountain and we stood facing Hannah and Ra silently.


    “Daddy, Hannah said Lightly, “it is good to see you.”


    She opened her arms, inviting affection from Damien. He strode toward her and hugged her, even


    kissing her cheek. The greeting was warmer than I would have expected, but Damien trusted Hannah.


    She was family.


    “This ce,” Hannah said gesturing, “reminds me of Radio Shack.”


    The men Looked puzzled for a moment at the Earth word, but I understood it. The meaning sunk in


    quickly. There were recording devices here.


    Damien and his Brothers had seen devices that could transmit sound and picture, and knew they


    existed. It was somehow not surprising the women used those sorts of things.


    “We should sit and talk somewhere,” Damien offered.

    “Your Mama and I have not seen you in a Long time.”


    “A ce in the sun would be good for Mama,” Hannah said leading us away, “I Know the perfect spot.”


    We followed Hannah and Ra around the inside of the mountains. She went down into a deserted ce


    and we came to a wall. A part of the mountain side had fallen in and the sunshine spilled into the old


    cavern. It was just barely a Large enough hole for Hannah and Ra to get through, a full grown woman


    would not fit.


    Ra spoke loudly and clearly, “Mama will be warm and we can sit and talk. It is a shame the other Earth


    female fears us or we could go to your rooms.”


    “She does,” I agreed. “Poor Rose seems quite afraid of you two.” The girls nodded and smiled Leading


    us out on a wide ledge.
