Part 2: Mantle Of Aries
Chapter 15

It was Midsummer's Day and the wedding was in a week. The 
preparations for the wedding were overwhelming. They expected 
to have over to nine hundred guests - almost a thousand if 
everyone showed up. The whole population of the town had been 
invited, people from Arizona University and University of Texas, 
friends from Austin, his hometown, family members, and all of the 
people with whom they worked. John had booked all of the rooms 
of two hotels for the people that were traveling. The affair was 
being catered by nine different companies. Folding chairs, tents, 
and portable toilets were being set up in the back yard of the house.

Money wasn't an issue, every time John turned around more 
money was being deposited in his accounts. He actually believed 
that he had underestimated how much money the fusion battery 
and the fusion well would create. The non-profit charity that he 
had established, was now one of the richest charities in the 
country. They had close to two thousand people managing 
different funding efforts. Jack had a team of accountants that went 
through the books continuously. Jim now had a staff of lawyers 
that were hand picked by him. 

Kelly kept walking through the house looking at everything in it. 
This was a dream that had come true well beyond her wildest 
imaginings. The house was divided into two main sections. The 
front contained various entertainment areas (dining room, living 
room, dance floor, kitchen) and a dozen bedrooms on the second 
floor for the staff. The kitchen alone was almost the size of a house 
and fully furnished with professional quality equipment. 

The back of the house was totally different. There were twelve 
bedrooms around the backside of an inner atrium. Every bedroom 
was two stories. The lower story had a sitting area, a bathroom, 
and a sleeping area. The top floor could serve as a private office. 
Near the front was a swimming pool and spa area. An informal 
living room, dining room, library, and kitchen were for personal 
use. They were located in the transition area between the public 
area and the private area.

Beth had taken one of the bedrooms and turned it into a private 
hospital with two beds. She had the stairs removed and an elevator 
put in its place. She was busy putting a surgical area into place on 
the top floor. She worked with a single-minded determination; 
swearing that she would not stand by and watch John die because 
she didn't have the equipment on hand to save him. John had 
donated the money for the house and the hospital, demanding that 
every cent be used on quality. 

Ed was out of town on some rock-hunting expedition with the 
University and wouldn't be back in a couple of days. His absence 
irritated John far beyond what was appropriate. He understood 
intellectually that sometimes one had to follow their desires, but 
the timing seemed odd. It was even worse when Ed had told him 
he didn't know when he would return. 

Ed and John shared one of the empty bedrooms as a place to work 
with rocks or perform experiments. The second floor was Johns 
and had been outfitted with special vents, automatic extinguishers, 
and other equipment to prevent the room from being a hazard. Ed's 
section was still bare. John didn't know why that bothered him so 
much.

John decided to call the University and find out when the 
expedition planned to return. He went to the telephone in the 
library and dialed the number for the secretary of the department. 
After a minute of conversation, John was shocked to learn that 
there had been no expedition. John had a very bad feeling about 
the turn of events. He walked over to the shelf that held his travel 
journals and swore when he discovered that one of them was 
missing. The missing journal described his first experience in the 
woods. No wonder none of the cats joined Ed on this trip. 

It was too late now to do anything about it. He hoped that the Gods 
and Goddesses would be kind to him. He had never heard of 
anyone deliberately seeking them out. If Ed had any luck, they 
wouldn't be there.

Ed deliberately followed the route that John had described in his 
journal. He knew he had reached the right place when the feel of 
the land suddenly changed. He expected to see a man or a woman 
step into view at the edge of the woods. He took a few steps 
forward and, true to his expectations, a man stepped out from 
behind a tree. The man was exceptionally obese. He had breasts 
larger than most women. He had a small cock that was almost 
hidden by a roll of fat. His face had huge jowls, a double chin, 
hooked nose, and large flapping ears. The one feature that stood 
out from the rest was the lips. They bulged out obscenely, flapping 
as he moved.

The man gestured Ed to follow. Ed obeyed with great reluctance. 
He knew what was going to happen next. He was going to be raped 
by this monster. The idea repelled him, but he would do it to 
protect John. His stomach twisted at the thought of touching the 
man, but he followed as close as possible.

They came to an empty clearing. The grotesque man came to a 
stop and turned to face Ed. Ed braced himself for an attack that 
didn't come. The man said, "Ed Biggers, the God and the Goddess 
would not come. They have given John all of the protection that he 
requires."

"John has died twice. Fat lot of good their protection has served 
him. He needs me to help protect him. I demand to see one of 
them!"

His challenge was met by laughter, "You demand? A mere mortal 
demand of us?"

Ed stubbornly replied, "Yes. I demand."

The man held up a medallion and tossed it a few feet away. 
Laughing, he stated, "If you survive long enough to get it, I will 
give you a gift that can help John."

Ed dove for the medal. His progress was interrupted by the man 
grabbing him in midair. Ed fought with everything that he had. The 
man ripped off Ed's clothes as if they were made of paper. He 
threw Ed to the ground. Ed scrambled in the direction of the 
medallion. The man halted Ed's progress by jumping on him. 

Ed's cock had grown erect almost immediately, despite his attempt 
to will it down. Ed's eyes grew huge in wonder as the man slowly 
turned into a woman. As the tremendously fat woman lowered 
herself on him, he continued to struggle to reach the medallion. 
She started to rock herself on his cock. He used her motion to help 
move him towards the medallion. It was now only five feet away, 
but his progress towards it could be measured in tenths of an inch. 
When he moved too far forward, the fat lady would bend his cock 
back so hard that Ed was sure that it would break. When she 
adjusted her position, he would start to move toward the medallion 
again. She leaned forward and jammed a breast in his mouth. He 
struggled to breathe around the monster breast. Even as he 
struggled to breathe, he continued to work his way towards the 
medallion.

Ed was shocked as the woman started to come. As she came, her 
cunt squeezed his cock. The squeeze was so tight that it hurt. Ed 
screamed out in pain as he imagined his cock being cut off by her 
cunt muscles. Ed still worked to reach the medallion. She 
continued to ride him. Ed knew she would ride him until he came. 
He wasn't sure if that would be good or bad. The only thing that he 
knew was that he needed to reach the medallion.

She came several more times. Each time it felt like she was going 
to rip his cock out by the roots. Throughout Ed worked his way 
towards the medallion. Suddenly, he came and it was unlike 
anything that he had ever experience. The contractions were so 
close together and long that it felt like he was pissing in her rather 
than coming.

She lifted herself off his cock and moved her way to his mouth. Ed 
used the opportunity to move even closer to the medallion. She 
lowered herself on his face. Huge globs of cum dripped out of her 
cunt. She reached back and yanked his cock. His scream was cut 
off by her cunt forcing its way onto his mouth. Cum drained into 
his mouth. He had to swallow. He swallowed and then tried to 
breathe as more cum filled his mouth. He continued to try to move 
his way towards the medallion. She came and cum flooded his 
mouth as her legs locked around his head. He couldn't breath and 
couldn't move. He wondered if this was how he was going to die. 
He swallowed and swallowed the never-ending stream of cum.

She started to rock back and forth on his face. He took a much 
need breath of air and used her motion to move forward again. The 
situation got worse as the cunt started turning into a cock. The 
cock forced itself into his mouth. It continued to grow. He bit it, 
but it only grew larger. The creature above him had become a man 
that was now fucking his mouth with a monster cock. Ed used the 
motion to move closer to the medallion. Each thrust in, he slid 
along the ground in the direction he desired. He would scoot 
forward when the man withdrew. The medallion was now only two 
feet away from his outstretched hand. 

The action continued until the man came. It was a massive 
explosion of cum that nearly drowned Ed. He coughed as cum 
entered his lungs. He retched as cum poured into his stomach. He 
couldn't breath with the head of monster cock filling his throat. He 
struggled to move closer to the medallion. The cock suddenly left 
his mouth. He scrambled towards the medallion.

He was within inches of reaching it when the man's hands grabbed 
him and spun him in the air. He landed on his hands and knees. He 
started to crawl towards the medallion. His progress was stopped 
when hands grabbed his hips. It felt like a fist was pressed against 
his asshole. He screamed when he was entered in one massive 
thrust that pushed the entire cock into his ass. He tried to scramble 
forward. He timed his forward movements with the thrusts into his 
ass. He struggled to hold his gain when the man pulled him back 
onto his cock. Again, his forward progress could be measured in 
tenths of an inch. The man reached around and grabbed Ed's cock. 
The man started masturbating him in time with his thrusts. Ed 
struggled to move forward. One thought continued to race through 
his mind, 'I must survive this to protect my family.' 

The thrusts became harder and faster. He thought his insides would 
tear at the brutality of the intrusion. He was sure his cock was 
going to be pulled off. He continued to struggle. The man came 
and thrust forward extremely forcefully. Ed saw his chance and 
threw himself forward, flattening himself on the ground. The man 
followed him to the ground as he continued to press his cock. Ed's 
hand closed around the medallion.

Everything stopped. Ed raised himself to stand on wobbly legs. 
The man took the medallion from Ed's hand and placed it around 
his neck. He stated, "I am the Two-sided One. You have done well, 
Ed Biggers. It is time for you to rest."

Ed woke and looked around the clearing. The normal feel of the 
outdoors had returned. His clothes were new. He felt healthy and 
energetic. He took a reading on the GPS and headed towards the 
highway. His progress was amazingly quick. He reached the 
highway and headed towards town. 

He stopped at the restaurant in town. He had read about it in John's 
journal and wondered what the owners were like. He stepped into 
the restaurant and looked in the mirror. His normal face looked 
back at him. He looked again and realized that his eyes were now 
gray. Ed approached the counter and sat down.

An elderly woman stood behind the counter and examined Ed for a 
minute. She asked, "Are you Ed?"

Ed nodded in surprise. He asked, "Are you Martha?"

She smiled at Ed. "Yes, I am. John called."

"Uh oh."

She laughed at the expression on his face. It was just like a little 
boy caught with his hand in a cookie jar. She added, "Right. He 
said to get something to eat, go to the next town and stop at the 
camping supply store, and then get home."

Ed asked, "Was he mad?"

Martha answered, "He was polite."

"You're avoiding the question."

She smiled, "Yes, I am. Now, what can I get for you?"

John looked at the menu for a minute and then spotted something 
he didn't get to eat very often. It was the daily special. He said, "I'd 
love some meatloaf."

Martha frowned at Ed. She corrected him, "That was yesterday's 
special."

Ed realized that he had lost two days. He recovered by stating, 
"Oh, right. I didn't notice that it was a daily special. I'll have a 
burger, fries, and chocolate milk shake."

Martha laughed at his choice. He was so much like John. She 
stated, "The teenager special. Always a good choice."

She called the order to the back. She turned to the counter to 
prepare the milkshake. Ed lifted the medallion and looked at what 
was on it. The picture on the first side of the medallion looked like 
a cock. The writing above the picture said, 'To Find.' While under 
the picture were the words, 'A Truth.' He flipped the medallion 
over. The picture on this side was that of a vagina. The writing 
above the picture said, 'A Lie.' The writing below the picture said, 
'To Find.' He stated the words to himself, 'To Find A Truth, A Lie 
To Find.' He thought about it a moment and realized that it could 
be in the stated in the other order, 'A Lie To Find, To Find A 
Truth.' 

Martha set the milkshake in front of Ed. He took a sip and smiled. 
He looked up at Martha, "Is this made with homemade ice cream?"

Martha shook her head and answered, "I'm afraid not. There's a 
small ice cream shop nearby. They make their own ice cream. We 
buy it from them."

"It's good. If I had known, I would have ordered a banana split 
instead of a burger and fries."

Martha said with a laugh, "You're just a little boy at heart, aren't 
you?"

"Guilty as charged."

"John did a good job of picking a husband."

Ed looked surprised. "Thanks."

Martha noticed his surprise. "We're coming to the wedding."

"Oh. Sorry, John has invited so many people that I don't even 
know who's coming. He's got people coming in from all over the 
country."

Martha understood. John made friends easily and he remembered 
them all. She smiled at him. "Well, we were probably just names 
on a list to you. It's quite understandable."

George brought out the burger and fries. They smelled good and 
Ed's stomach rumbled in response. George laughed and then stated, 
"Can't use praise from you as a measure of quality. You're too 
hungry. Anything would taste good to you."

Ed took a bite of the burger. It tasted delicious and he made 
appreciative noises. George smiled and headed into the back. Ed 
finished the burger and fries in record time. Martha watched with 
pleasure as Ed finished the milkshake. Ed sat back and stated, "I 
can understand why John likes this place so much, there's great 
food and great company in nice surroundings."

Martha smiled, "Thank you. Now you had better get out of here. 
I'm sure that John's very worried about you."

"Thanks." Ed settled his bill and left the restaurant. Soon he was 
driving down the road headed towards the next town. He looked in 
the mirror and swore. A Sheriff's car was behind him with his 
lights and siren running. Ed pulled over and got out his driver's 
license. The Sheriff pulled up behind him and walked towards the 
driver's side of the car. Ed rolled down the window. The Sheriff 
came up and asked, "Ed Biggers?"

"Yes sir."

The Sheriff looked at Ed for a minute and then smiled. "John says 
to get your ass home."

Ed stared at the Sheriff in shock. "Huh?"

The Sheriff smiled, "Look, follow me to the store. Go in and do 
your business. Then get out of here. John's called half the people in 
this town looking for you."

Ed shook his head, "I guess it is nice to have someone worry about 
you, but this is approaching ridiculous."

The Sheriff smiled at Ed. "I take it Martha already told you."

"Yes, sir."

The Sheriff said, "Okay, follow me and I'll take you to the store."

The Sheriff turned and headed to his car before Ed could even 
answer. He followed behind the Sheriff. They went directly to the 
store. Ed parked his car and entered the store. It was empty except 
for a single woman. He asked, "are you Catherine?"

The woman nodded. She looked at Ed carefully for a minute. Ed 
added, "John Carter told me to come here."

She asked, "You've been to the woods?"

"Yes."

"May I see your Medallion?"

Ed nodded and pulled it out from under his shirt. She glanced at it 
and then walked off. She came back with a polished mahogany 
box. She opened it up and stated, "This is a crystal ball."

Ed looked at it. Inside was a crystal ball mounted in a beautiful 
silver stand. The entire thing was a beautiful work of art. He 
uttered in an awed voice, "It is beautiful."

Catherine smiled to herself. She answered, "Thank you. It is 
yours."

"How much?"

"No charge, it is how I serve the Gods."

 Ed looked at her with understanding. He didn't know what her 
ordeal had been, but he couldn't imagine that it was a great deal of 
fun. He looked at the crystal ball, "You do the Gods great honor 
with the quality of your work."

Catherine smiled as she stated, "Thank you again. Now John called 
and said you were to get home."

Ed groaned. He said his good byes and took the box with the 
crystal ball inside. He exited the building and entered his truck. He 
headed home dreading the long drive. It was late in the day and 
would be very late by the time he arrived. He hoped that he would 
be able to sneak into the house without causing a scene. Of course, 
odds were that John would know when to expect him.

John watched for Ed from the parapet on top of the family house. 
He wondered if Ed was going to chicken out and stay the night in 
his house. He decided that it would depend on the degree to which 
Ed had been changed. He hope that the changes were simple, but 
he feared that Ed had approached the Gods and Goddesses in a less 
than friendly manner.

He saw the pickup turn into the street. He would be home in a few 
minutes. John headed to the stairwell. It took him a minute to get 
down the stairs. He raced to the front door and opened it. Ed pulled 
up at just that moment. John waited for him to get to the house. Ed 
sauntered up to the house, "Were you worried about me?"

John denied it, "Not really."

John's reply had a sour taste that struck Ed with a taste of irritation. 
He grimaced as he stated, "That's not true. You were really worried 
about me."

John looked at Ed in surprise. "True. I wondered if you were going 
to live through it. I was convinced you were going there to 
challenge them."

John's words sounded sweet. Ed groaned, "I've just become a 
human lie detector."

Beth and Kelly came out and examined Ed searching for 
differences. Kelly stated, "You're eyes are gray now."

Kelly asked, "Why did you do it?"

Beth asked, "What happened to you there?"

John answered, "He will not tell you what happened. He decided to 
do it the night they tried to assassinate me."

Ed nodded his head, "You're right John. As always."

John said with laugh, "Not as always. I'm wrong quite often."

John's words had the sweetness of truth. Ed wondered when he had 
been wrong. He asked, "So when were you wrong?"

John stated, "Oh, I expected Beth to go there."

Beth flushed, "How did you know I was planning on doing that?"

Ed stared at Beth in wonder. "Why would you do it?"

Beth answered, "I lost a lover and went crazy.  I'm not going to 
stand by and lose another one. I was planning to go this time, but 
you guys scheduled the wedding for this week. So I decided I 
would go this winter."

John stated, "That's why I argued for the date that I did. I was 
planning to keep everyone busy. I have to admit that Ed surprised 
me. He's always covered my back and has done a great job at it."

Ed frowned, "Right, one time you get shot and killed. Another 
time, you have to wrestle with a professional assassin in the middle 
of the night. Both times, I'm not there."

Beth added, "And I'm a doctor that could do nothing but patch you 
up."

Kelly asked, "Were you going to take me along with you?"

Beth sheepishly answered, "I thought about it, but decided not to 
do it."

"You bitch, don't you think I worry about him too?"

Beth answered, "I know you worry about him too. I was afraid of 
what would happen to you there."

Ed emphatically stated, "Neither of you will go there. You have no 
idea what it is like."

John stated, "Ed, you need some tender loving care tonight. Don't 
you?"

Ed nodded. He had been feeling horny ever since leaving the 
woods. Ed shyly asked, "Could I have each one of you, one at a 
time?'

Kelly laughed, "Let's go to the playroom!"

The four of them made their way to the back of the house. They 
had one room with a floor that was completely padded. In the 
corner was a cabinet that had sex toys and towels. They considered 
it the playroom. 

Clothes came off quickly on entering the room. Ed had undressed 
with his back to everyone. When he turned around, Kelly squealed 
in delight. "You've gotten bigger down there."

Ed looked down in surprise. He had become as big as John down 
there. He decided that the Two-sided One had given him a gift that 
the women would enjoy, but he doubted John would like it.

Kelly approached Ed and pressed her body against his. He put his 
arms around her and gently kissed her. They sank to the floor. Ed 
kissed her lips, neck, and ears. Gently nibbling on her earlobe, he 
ran a hand down to caress her breast. He cupped it and stroked it 
lightly, exciting the nipple to a fully erect state. She reached up and 
caressed his chest. She knew his nipples were sensitive because of 
many previous episodes of lovemaking. Their movements became 
more passionate as feather light touches explored more of their 
bodies. Soon their legs were entwined. 

Ed worked his way down her body, kissing her neck working his 
way to the valley between her breasts. Slipping a nipple into his 
mouth, he sucked and nipped it. Kelly responded with a blush that 
worked its way across her chest, signaling her rising excitement. 
Ed kissed his way down her stomach, pausing at her navel.  He 
then worked his way down to her cunt. The lips were open and 
waiting for him. Moisture had gathered at the entrance. The 
unmistakable scent of an excited woman tickled his nose and drove 
him to greater excitement. He ran his tongue between her lips, 
savoring the delicate flavor that was Kelly. She moaned as she 
neared a quick climax. He stuck his tongue into her, sucking juices 
from deep inside. He moved to tongue her clit, she clamped her 
legs around his head to keep him in place. He flicked his tongue 
even more rapidly. She grunted once and then she came flooding 
his chin with her juices.

He moved up her body to where his rigid cock was poised at her 
cunt. He slowly slipped it in, rocking back and forth, to ease its 
entry. She wrapped her legs around his ass to pull him into her. 
The thrusting began slowly, but picked up in speed until their 
bodies slapped together. She was panting and moaning as waves of 
pleasure raced through her body. She came with a shudder. He 
paused to give her a chance to recover and then began again. 
Quicker than before, she approached another orgasm. As he 
approached orgasm, his thrusts became harder and deeper. 
Together, they came with Ed screaming out his pleasure with a 
roar and Kelly roaring out her pleasure in a scream.

Ed rolled off Kelly. They relaxed as the sweat cooled them. Ed 
looked up at John requesting, "Fuck me in the ass."

John smiled and lubed his cock with KY Jelly. Ed rolled over on 
his hands and knees. Beth helped spread his ass cheeks while John 
lubed the asshole, working lots of lube into it. He lined his cock up 
with Ed's asshole and pressed forward gently. Ed pushed back 
against the cock. It slipped in, stretching the asshole more than was 
intended by nature. Ed grunted at the initial pain. He relaxed his 
muscles and pushed back on the cock even more. The cock slipped 
in past his anal ring. John started to slowly thrust his cock in and 
out. Ed's pain quickly transformed to pleasure.

John started thrusting roughly into Ed. Ed pushed himself back 
against the thrusts grunting each time. The action became furious. 
John looked over at Beth and saw her masturbating as she watched 
the men. The sight was too much for him. He shot his load in a 
final hard thrust into Ed. He groaned as he came.

Ed rolled over onto his back. He was sporting a massive erection. 
Beth moved over and licked Kelly's juices from his cock. She was 
so excited that she didn't require any foreplay. She positioned 
herself over his cock and slowly lowered herself onto it. She 
sighed as it finally hit bottom. 

Filled by Ed's cock, Beth started lifting herself up and down as she 
rocked her hips. Ed's cock rubbed all of the right places inside her. 
Ed reached down and placed the flat of his thumb against her clit. 
Her motion changed so that she was rubbing her clit against his 
thumb. She started flexing her cunt muscles, rocking, and lifting 
herself. 

The sweat was pouring off their bodies as Ed lifted Beth with his 
hips. She was making continual animal noises. He was grunting 
like a cave man. Beth started squeezing her nipples and then 
squeezed Ed's nipples. He screamed and came in her. His orgasm 
triggered hers. She came with a series of animal noises.
