Chapter 44: Liberation Day

Tony was looking around the now empty dorm when he noticed a pair of feet sticking out from a corner curtain. He walked up and sat on the bed, speaking in his most gentle voice. "It’s safe, you can come out now. Nobody can hurt you now, but if you want to stay there, can you tell me your name?"

A young squeaky pre-transition voice replied from behind the curtain. "My name is Alec. Who are you and are you here to hurt me?"

"No, I would never hurt you," Tony replied. "In fact, I’m going to take you to a new place where no one can hurt you again. Step out behind the curtain so I can see you."

Alec stepped out from behind the curtain, his belly gigantic. He took a few waddling steps toward Tony and smiled. "I’m sorry about the virus. It’s got me swelled for the third time, but soon this will be over and I’ll have antibodies and I won’t have to do this anymore."

Tony looked into the young man’s face—beautiful wavy blonde hair, ice blue eyes, 5 foot 9. You could tell he was going to be a nice-looking Genman when he went through transition.

"How long have you been swelled, Alec?"

"Including my flat time, 6½ months. They say the last time you get your biggest, all the toxins gather in your stomach before they come out when you take the sleep."

Tony thought carefully and phrased his words just right. "The sleep that you’re going to take—when does that happen and what happens after that?"

"Well, after you’ve been swollen, including your flat time, for nine months or so, they come with the special chairs and they push you out of here. You go down the long hallway, they give you a drink and you sleep. When you wake up your belly’s flat, you come back and get your things here, and they carry you to a new place and you’re free."

"Have you ever seen anyone after they’re free, Alec?"

"No sir, they leave. They go to other places, they go to the city I understand, and they are cured of the virus."

Tony reached out for Alec’s hand and gently pulled the young man toward him, setting him on his knee. He rubbed his belly, which kicked back. Alec jumped. "Be careful, I don’t want you to catch the virus."

Tony laughed and put his hand back on Alec’s belly. "I’m human—I can’t catch the virus that they claim you have. But I will help you through the last two and a half months if you let me. I know a place where you can stay and won’t need for anything."

Alec smiled, cocked his head, looked at Tony and hugged his neck. "Thank you so much, Mr. Tony. I’ll do whatever you want if you never send me away."

Tony sat there with Alec and they chatted when Angela came to give her report. "Sir, everything is secure, everyone’s safe, but I have a problem."

Tony smiled. "So do I, and his name is Alec. I know it’s not protocol, but me and Liz are taking this one. He doesn’t have a lot of time, but maybe he’ll hold on for the little while."

Angela had tears in her eyes. "I’ve got one knocked out—this fresh breed. I was told his name is Roger, and I found Frankie, Martin’s buddy that helped him out here. He’s been through hell. I want permission to take these two back to the ranch with me. They’re my responsibility—they will not hit the system, they will not be part of the machine. I’m getting them the hell out of it."

"They could not be in better hands," Tony smiled. "I believe the two-bedroom is next door to Hans and Martin, so y’all could all be close."

Angela smiled. "Yeah, nothing like the Torres family next door—Puerto Rican all the way. We’re going to have a party. I have to get back before Roger wakes up to help him through his first time. Plus, I have a lot of educating to do—they are 10-year-old, 11-year-olds in their minds. They had no stimulation, they have to learn everything."

"And I can’t think of a better teacher than you, Angela. They are some of the luckiest young men that have ever walked across your doorway, and they’re yours now. Keep them tight, keep them close and love them, because Alec isn’t going anywhere but to my place and he is my charge now."

Angela returned to check on Frankie and Roger. Roger was still 90% out of it—he could only say that his tummy hurt and he was burning in his backside. Angela handed Frankie a tube of calming gel. "That’s your job. You apply it to him and help him—he will be your responsibility, but I will help the two of you work through this. There’s a lot to learn, but you need to apply this gel very gently three times a day. You will help him bathe, but if you get any urges, you will not touch him. When we get to the Z1 Ranch, you will meet Lex. He will give you and Roger both exams, and then we’ll sit down and talk about what’s happened. You have a lot to learn, young man."

"Whatever you say, I’ll do it all," Frankie answered. "Just don’t make me go back to the dark place, because sometimes people don’t come out of there."

The Harrison Ranch was being packed out box after box, file after file. Tony found out that all of the corporate underground ranches were built just like this—elevator, two stories down underneath the barn, escape tunnels for emergencies, and they even had gas vents to eliminate every participant in the program.

Tony, Angela, Hans and the three new charges arrived at the Z1 Ranch. They were led in and went directly to the clinic. Lex walked out and couldn’t believe what he saw—a Genman about 20-something years old, another that was maybe 18 and big as the side of a house, and curled up in Hans’s arms, a young Genman maybe 16 at the max, but he was small so he couldn’t really tell until he got a blood test.

Hans carried Roger inside the clinic, Angela removed Frankie’s cuffs and escorted him inside also. Tony led Alec inside—all were there to be examined.
