pants down leaving him exposed and leaking. The man fell to the floor in a fetal curl with his ass upwards. Tommy took a swig of the fine imported beer then shoved the beer bottle into the guy’s hairy ass.
The crowd of onlookers became silent. The pool of blood from Bubba spread across the floor and his followers stepped away from their fallen warrior.
Tommy took off his jacket and flung it over his shoulder saying, “No… YOU go fuck yourself.”

Chapter Five
Rene shook her head as the three of them walked toward an ATM booth illuminated in a neon glow.
“Remind me to never piss you off,” Rene joked. “How did you do that? Where did you learn to fight like that?”
“Can you fix this?” Tommy held up his sleeve showing the rip on the shoulder and the cut along the biceps. “I really love this coat.” A tear seemed to fill his eye. Within three minutes Tommy changed from a menacing, violent monster into a caring, sympathetic…well, he was back to his old self.
“Of course. I owe you one. Thank you for everything.” She leaned over and kissed Tommy’s cheek.
“We need to get going. We’ll miss the window for the transporter.” Jared tugged at Rene and Tommy, guiding them down the sidewalk.
“Oh, shit! I need my bag. I need my supplies.” Rene pointed to the truck as they walked past it.
“Okay, hurry up.”
She grabbed her bag from the truck and they rushed to the ATM booth.
Tommy stepped into the booth first, followed by Rene and Jared. Rene felt like a hot dog with two sets of buns around her.
“Don’t tell me we need money to go to your anus?” Rene snickered as she spoke.
Tommy punched a set of keys and nothing was happening except a droning beep echoing through the cramped booth.
“I can’t believe it. Dammit, Tommy, you forgot the ATM code again, didn’t you?” Jared was angry and squished in against Rene’s ass.

She didn’t mind.
Tommy pressed in the code numbers for the third time and a faint screeching sound became louder and louder. Tommy turned and stuck his tongue out at Jared.
Rene second guessed herself and for an instant thought, Fuck this, I’m outta here , but before she could speak, a blinding light filled the booth. She looked down at her hands, and they became transparent before her eyes and she suddenly felt euphoric. With a last blast of light, they were gone. Instantly she was in darkness and heard a clomping sound.
“Ouch, dammit, Tommy, you left the light off and I hit my toe on the table.” Jared fumbled around for the light.
The room became bright with a neon-like glow. It wasn’t much bigger than a walkin closet. All that was there were a few hooks on the wall and a bench on either side.
“How did you guys do that? How did we get here? Where the fuck are we? You must have drugged me.” Rene dug into her bag for her pepper spray.
“This is the ship we take to travel to Uranus. It’s like a probe ship. Four weeks travel and we go up through the back hole to home.” Jared shook a chill from his spine.
The more she looked around, the more things began to sink in. She dropped her bag and snapped.
“You mean, you guys really are aliens.”
“Well, duhhhhhh, that’s what we have been telling you all day.” Tommy rolled his eyes.
“This is… Oh, good God, fucking A, shit for luck, sonovabitch, mutherfuckin bullshit, eat my pussy ‘til I scream, unbelievable, anus licking, cock smoking—” Jared leaned towards Tommy, “I think she’s going to explode.”
“I hope not, I kinda like her,” Tommy answered.
“Me, too.”
“—cunt munching, hairy balled liars, you bastards lied to me!” 37

“Hello??” Tommy did the quotes again with his fingers. “We told you. You weren’t listening. You were too busy looking at Jared’s cock.” He was right about that part.
“I-I
