The general takes over finding out what kind of fuel the human clones need. He consults with the information center that has established connection with this world's communication system. The locals call it the 'internet?'. LOL. What a crude device. But then, for such primitives, it is a rather impressive achievement. The information center scans loads of information on human eating habits and choices of fuel. The information is collated and one of the most popular combinations is sent to the replicator. Before you know it, the fuel starts coming out. The general places the trays on the shelf for the rest of his staff. When the last beverage is created, he suggests they sit at the table and begin to try to consume (is that the word) this form of human fuel. The lieutenants complain wondering why they can't just continue with their own energy source. The general explains that the physiology of the human is sufficiently different from their own to make it dangerous to try. It might cause damage to the clone units. It is just best to try and make do with what the humans have evolved to use and make the best of it. Once seated, they all look at each other to see which one of them will be the first to try this questionable fuel source. Finally, the general takes the plunge and takes a bite off the burger. Well well well, he thinks. This isn't so bad. He takes another bite. Then another. Then another. His lieutenants seeing his enthusiasm decide they will try this fuel as well. Before you know it, another plate order has been given to the replicator, then another, then another, until the general and his lieutenants are filled to capacity. How is it this stuff can affect us so. It isn't anything like the fuel we are used to. What is the word used to describe this fuel? It has, taste? Yes! Taste! That describes it. Well, whatever it is, for a few brief moments, it is what you might call a most pleasurable experience. Something these aliens have never experienced. After all, they come from a very 'evolved' species. M4 characters. Rendered in Poser 11.1 pro. Post work in Photoshop 7. Thank you for taking a peek! Your support is greatly appreciated!
