Fallen In Love [AAC]

The trip had cost him 23 trillion cells to reach this strange planet but if he ever expected to live forever he had to make the journey. His soul was barely hanging on as he entered the outer atmosphere and he knew he had a very short time to make the conversion. He would have to land his craft somewhere that wouldn’t draw attention. Ever since his people had begun making the journey to and from this planet it had become harder and harder to escape detection. From the time they first found the daughters of men to be pleasant and beautiful they had taken them as wives. Their offspring would guarantee the survival of their race and his very own survival.

When he found the right female he would lay with her and his soul would enter her and would be born again at the right time. So many of his cells had died from the radiation encountered in the trip that he knew his body would probably not survive the mating. His hope resided in the knowledge that if the impregnation was successful his soul would live on. Then when he matured to the fullness of his adulthood he would leave this planet and return to his own to receive the next set of chromosomes that would begin his next life.

An endless cycle continuing from the beginning of time until now. But if he didn’t bring back the fresh DNA his people would die out. He also understood that if he didn’t share his DNA with the people of Earth they too would die out. This delicate balance was maintained by the willingness of his people to make the long journey and sacrifice their lives so that both planets would survive.

After he had hidden his ship he ventured out into the rural landscape where he had chosen to land. He had scanned the communities he had flown over on his way in and discovered a very healthy fertile female living very close to his position. He would only need to locate her and bring her back to the ship for impregnation and afterwards to confirm fertilization was successful.

He found her within just a few hours and he had completed his task and his journey. She would carry the fertilized egg within her until such time as she would appear to become pregnant by a male of her race. That way there would be no occasion for questions to arise.

After he returned her to her home he made his way out into the dark night and gazed upon the heavens toward the far distant galaxy he had called home for so long. Now as he felt his body life beginning to leave him he realized he had at last fallen in love.

I was taken a back by his sudden new found "love". It was all so clinical at first.........

Wow.
I really liked that.

Thanks Sonny and Natalia! I wanted to approach the idea of "love" from a different perspective. What greater love could there be than an alien (stranger) laying down his life that we might live. Sex was a life giving act! Love became an act of sacrifice. Love truly fell from the sky. Peace!
