Colonel Lodrab, Vedek Kira and Odo led the way, followed by Luaran (the Vorta), Bashir, Lt. Cmdr. Oliver, and the rest of the security detail continued to stroll along the Promenade, greeting the merchants and the station's citizenry.

Quite a crowd began following the group around. As more and more people gathered on the Promenade, many simply followed, while others were waiting ahead in anticipation of seeing Ambassador Odo and Vedek Kira.

Suddenly Luaran stepped in front of Odo, between him and a humanoid female. Luaran, assuming a submissive posture with the head bowed slightly and holding their hands down at their sides with the palms facing outward. Looking directly at the woman, "Founder," she said.

"No, you're wrong." The woman turned to flee and as she did, she transformed into a small bird, flying to the upper level of the Promenade. Odo reacted quickly and transformed himself into a Tarkailian hawk and pursued the bird and quickly caught it in its talons. There were murmurs and gasps from the crowd. A few even screamed at the sight.

Odo returned to the lower level of the Promenade and held the little bird in his hand as he transformed back to his humanoid form. While holding the bird, it transformed back into the form of the human female.

Right away, Odo linked with the female shapeshifter, and he was able to read her thoughts. "She's not the one we're looking for," Odo reported immediately. "She was just hoping to go back to the Founder's home world with me or another ship going through the wormhole. She was left behind on Ferenginar after the war ended and she's been working her way here hoping to find a way home."

"Should we hold her in custody for further questioning," Lodrab asked?

"You can hold her, but I doubt she has anything more to add to the thoughts she shared with me," Odo replied. "She doesn't know anything about the attacks or the murders. She only fled out of fear of discovery."

Everyone, including the shapeshifting female, who later said her name was Bix, moved to the Security Office. Bix was placed in a holding cell. "Do you think our cover is blown," Cmdr Oliver asked?

Luaran said, "I did not sense any other changelings nearby, so we may still be able to complete the mission assuming the suspect is still on the station."

"Yes, but word and rumor will travel fast, so if the changeling interacts with any of the people in the shops or restaurants, they will hear of the two changelings flying on the Promenade," observed Colonel Lodrab. "We can't order everyone to keep silent, it is a civilian station, not an exclusively military one."

Odo went to the cell area and assured Bix that he would take her home when he left the station. She promised not to try to flee again, so they released her to go about her normal routine on the station. She did have assigned visitors' quarters already and she has been on the station for 16 months already. And as a result, she could not have committed the final murder on Bajor, because she was on the station at the time it occurred.

Everyone agreed to simply go about the station visit as if nothing unusual happened, to give thought to the next steps and to reconvene in Colonel Lodrab's office in the morning. They decided blood screenings for the staff in Ops would not be necessary for staff working in the morning since Luaran would be able to spot the changeling if they were in Ops in the morning.

In the morning, Ezri reported that using the updated internal sensor array, she was able to identify when Bix and Odo changed form on the Promenade. She also indicated that she could detect when they changed form separately in their quarters to regenerate. The odd thing she reported is there were no other form changes on the station for the 17 hours since they adjourned their meeting in the Security Office.

"So," Lodrab replied, "If the female changeling didn't do it, then the suspect has probably already left the station? This can't be good."

"Well, not necessarily," Bashir noted, "It would only indicate that the being may not be a founder or one of the 100 they sent out into the galaxy. It could be a completely new species of shapeshifter, perhaps one that doesn't need to regenerate."

Ezri had the computer automatically scan for changeling form changes, recording the results. In the meantime, Lt. Cmdr Oliver indicated he just got the results back on a criminal request he sent out to the surrounding star systems. "It turns out there have been similar murders on four other worlds. The first record was from the Federation colony on Gemulon V. That was 5 years ago, just months after the war ended. Three murders were committed and they remain unsolved."

Oliver continued, "The next recorded instances were in the Valo system on Valo III 3.8 years ago where they had three unsolved murders similar to ours. After that the next instance was on Dreon VII where again they had three unsolved murders with the same characteristics as ours. That was 2.7 years ago. There was 1 murder on Ferenginar 2.4 years ago that fits the pattern of the murders."

"Lastly, there were three murders on Ajir IX that fit the pattern 2 years ago. Then, of course, the three on Bajor in the 16 - 18 month past window."

Odo interjected as Ezri pulled up a star chart. "All those systems, aside from Ferenginar, are either Federation colonies or Bajoran colonies."

Ezri jumped in, "and they follow a zigzag line across space leading to the worm hole. The only one that doesn't fit the pattern is the murder on Ferenginar."

"So, the suspect has to still be on the station because there hasn't been a ship through the wormhole other than Odo's shuttle in weeks," Lodrab chimed in.

"Odo, there is no way the Bix could have hidden her involvement in this from you when you linked with her," Bashir asked?

Immediately Kira jumped in, "Doctor, what are you trying to say? You know Odo wouldn't lie about this."

"Nerys, it's okay. It is a valid question since we already know Bix visited Fereginar and Bajor before coming here," Odo interjected. "It also makes sense to figure the suspect is still on the station since the pattern of murders has been three except on Ferenginar. I propose we continue to monitor for changeling transformation activity and continue our 'diplomatic' visit to the station to see what happens."

The team agreed that monitoring and inaction might be the best thing at this point until the shipping schedule returned to normal in two days. They also decided to have an update meeting each morning. Oliver indicated he would follow up with Bix's name and facial features with all the planets involved to see if she was on those planets.

When Mardah finished her shift at Quarks, she arrived back at her quarters to find Cydia already there. Cydia had already prepared the room with candles and soft lighting and was completely naked, covered only by the top sheet of the bed. "Join me," Cydia called out to Mardah as she entered the room. "I want to spend the time before we sleep pleasuring you."

Mardah shed her Dabo clothes and joined Cydia in bed. Cydia started by gently massaging Mardah's neck, shoulders and back before kissing her way down her back to her ass. Mardah moaned from this very sensual activity and pushed her bum into Cydia's face. Taking the hint, Cydia used her long tongue to spear Mardah's anus. Mardah cooed as she felt the penetration and her body shuddered when Cydia split her tongue and teased her musky hole.

Mardah was clearly aroused as her vagina and labia were wet and puffy. Removing her tongue from Mardah's anus, Cydia rolled Mardah onto her back before sliding her tongue in the woman's vagina sending what felt to Mardah like electrical shocks through her body. Cydia continued her assault on Mardah's sex, removing her tongue and substituting her fingers for it, massaging Mardah's g-spot, all the while wrapping her split tongue around Mardah's clitoris. "Oh fuck, Cydia, that feels amazing."

Cydia kept up the attention, bringing Mardah right to the edge before easing her back down, leading to a disappointed moan from Mardah. Cydia slid her body over Mardah's kissing and nibbling on her belly until she got to Mardah's breasts. Cydia suckled on them and as Mardah's nipple grew hard, she gently bit and pinched them. Mardah was floating in a state of near ecstasy realizing she was right at the edge of climax but couldn't quite push herself over that edge.

As Cydia bit hard on a nipple, causing Mardah to cry out, she slipped her long thick cock into Mardah's sopping wet pussy. "Oh fuck,' Mardah cried out. On the third thrust of Cydia's magnificent cock, Mardah passed the edge and rode the wave of ecstasy into one of the strongest orgasms she'd ever had. She arched her back and did her best to push herself as far as she could onto Cydia's cock and wailed, "ffuuuuccccckkkk, oh ffuuuccckkk!"

Mardah's body twitched as her orgasm passed and faded. Hoping to extend it, Mardah shoved her hand to her own clitoris and began furiously rubbing. Cydia recognized this and thrust her massive cock into Mardah again and again. Between the thrusting cock and her own hand, Mardah crested the wave once again and climaxed hard, crying out Cydia's name.

Cydia stopped thrusting as Mardah collapsed back on the bed. "Cydia, that was amazing," Mardah whispered in a ragged voice. "But you didn't climax, did you?"

"No, not yet," Cydia replied, kissing Mardah's neck.

"Do you have any lube available? I don't think I have the strength to go down on you after the way you zapped my strength. Would you like to cum in my ass? I want you to know I only offer my ass to very special people, and I consider you one of them. None of Quark's patrons gets to deposit their load there."

Cydia left the bed for a moment to obtain a bottle of lube from the replicator. She applied it liberally to her cock and to Mardah's ass. She spent some time kissing Mardah's neck and shoulders from behind as she worked her fingers, one at a time until she managed to get four of her six fingers into Mardah's ass, before she lined up her cock and pressed the first few CM home.

"Oh," Mardah gasped. "The prophets, be blessed you are a big girl. Fuck, your cock is stretching me." Cydia paused for a minute so Mardah could get used to the girth before sliding more of her cock in, pausing again, before pushing in to the hit. "Oh, fuck me," Mardah murmured as she felt fuller than ever before.

Cydia pulled her cock back before gently sliding it in again. Sliding back again, she applied more lube and pressed her cock home. Cydia fucked her ass for a good 15 minutes before pulling completely out to lubricate. This time she got Mardah to bend over the edge of the nearby desk and she shoved her cock back into the hilt. Mardah cried out again, "Oh fuck that feels good." After several more minutes and Cydia still wasn't even breathing hard, Mardah figured she needed to get more vocal, or this woman was going to ruin her ass. "Cydia, babe, cum for me honey. Fill me with that maximum spunk only you can deliver. Come on babe, fuck my ass harder. I need your cum babe, I need it. Give it to me."

Her words were having an effect, Cydia was thrusting harder and she was starting to breathe harder too, murmuring in her native tongue that the universal translator couldn't quite pick up. Cydia's hips were flying now, like a machine, slamming into Mardah's ass, slapping hips against ass cheeks, skin against skin.

Mardah was confused by the cross between pain and pleasure. The hips slapping her ass cheeks were almost like being smacked; but at the same time, Cydia's ball sack was slapping against her clitoris on each thrust in and Mardah knew she was just seconds from another climax. Cydia started chuffing like an old-time steam engine as Mardah's climax approached.

Mardah was moaning "oh, oh, oh" each time Cydia's sack hit her clitoris. She finally climaxed, clamping down on Cydia's ass as she did so.

This tight squeeze was enough to finally push Cydia over the edge, and she started pumping and pumping her seed into Mardah's ass. Cydia cried out in a scream that could wake the dead, "Aaaahhhh!"

Completely spent, Cydia collapsed on the back of Mardah. Things were fine until Cydia softened and slipped from Mardah's ass. It took time for Mardah's gape to close and in that time, Cydia's semen just poured out of Mardah's hole onto the floor. It was thick and formed a 10CM puddle on the floor.

Embarrassed, Cydia immediately tried to find a towel to wipe up the puddle. "Leave it be, the carpet cleaning bot will get it and recycle it. Just take me back to bed and hold me."

They did lie together and held each other until sleep overtook them.

Meanwhile, in the station commander's quarters, Lodrab Gailai was having her own form of sexual release. She took a strict approach to her command duties, she was not going to have a relationship with a subordinate, not under any circumstances. That didn't prevent her from fantasizing about the handsome Lt. Shawn Puma, the most recent transfer onto DS9 as the Science Officer. As she lay naked in bed, with just a sheet covering her she caressed her own body, thinking of Lt. Puma, Shawn. She whispered quietly, Shawn, your touch is exquisite, as she teased her nipple. You know just how to please a woman for a gentleman so young.

Gailai squeezed her breasts as she closed her eyes, imagining it was Shawn doing this to her. A moan escaped her lips. She didn't need to touch her sex to know she was wet with desire. At 1.9 M tall he had to have a good-sized cock she reasoned, but she refused to replicate a dildo to piston in and out of her sopping pussy.

She preferred to imagine him licking her, probing her labia with his lips and tongue. She touched her labia, just for a second, sliding her hand up to caress her belly. Then she touched herself again, lingering this time for a few seconds longer. Letting out a long moan of pleasure, her eyes closed, imagining Shawn was licking the folds of her sex, parting her labia with his tongue, dragging his tongue across her clitoris.

Slowly she repeated the same image in her mind, refusing to acknowledge that it was her own fingers she was dragging across her clit. Gailai rubbed her clit between the length of her index and middle fingers as she used her other hand to pinch her nipples. Her hand moved faster and faster over her clit, dipping into her opening for additional moisture.

Dreaming of Shawn, she rapidly approached orgasm. Arching her back and crying out at a level that surely someone walking by her doorway would hear, Gailai climaxed hard. She lifted her butt off the bed as she arched her back, thrusting into the air to meet the movement of her hand; her body flinched and shuddered. While it likely only lasted 10 or maybe 15 seconds, it felt like minutes to Gailai, her back arching trying to reach that peak again.

Out of breath, she slowly slid back down onto the bed, trying hard to regain her composure. But she couldn't resist touching herself again and bringing herself to another quick, and less intense climax. In her mind she was holding Shawn's head at her quim, but finally the image faded as Gailai drifted off into an orgasm induced slumber.

Over in the diplomatic guest quarters, Odo and Nerys were wrapped in each other's arms making love. Odo had extended his "male genitals" into Nerys' wet pussy as he lay between her legs. Nerys loved this position, Odo ground against her clitoris as he pulsed his cock in her pussy and tickled her anus.

Nerys wasn't a fan of anal sex, she didn't care for the penetration, but she loved that Odo would extend another "cock/finger" to tickle the outside of her anus while he was pulsing the length of his normal "cock" appendage inside her pussy. Along with the way he ground against her clitoris, the three things combined to give her great pleasure, but Odo also took his time, keeping her on the edge for 15, 20, 25 minutes before she couldn't take any more and begged him to finish her, bringing her to glory in orgasmic bliss.

When she finally did climax, it was long and drawn out. She arched her back. Her breathing stopped. She cried out in ecstasy. She saw stars, and not the ones outside the station through the view port. When her climax subsided, the relaxed back onto the mattress, Odo was still there, holding her, still pulsing his "cock" inside her, massaging her inner walls. Her only wish was that he could feel this sexual satisfaction as much as she did. Odo loved her and loved bringing her onto this plane of ecstasy.

As the two calmed, and Odo slowly deflated his "cock" and it became just another part of his body, they kissed, passionately, and held each other in loving embrace. "I really wish you could stay with me forever," Nerys whispered.

"So do I," Odo whispered back. "Perhaps one day we can make that happen." Odo paused, "Nerys, I've had an island replicated adjacent to the one we normally beam down to. I've had a small home built there. I built it for you so you can visit and have a comfortable place to stay, even if it is for just a few days at a time. It even has a landing pad large enough for a run-about or shuttle to land on, so you don't have to leave it parked in orbit."

"Odo, that's so nice, but I don't have access to a shuttle."

"I know, but I was thinking I could send a shuttle for you. I could have one of the Vorta pilot it," Odo explained.

"Well, just as long as it isn't one of the Luaran clones," Nerys said laughing.

The two of them snuggled until Nerys fell asleep and then Odo left her side and regenerated in his pail.

~~~~~

The next morning, Ezri noted on the internal scans just two changes in state for the changelings, one for Odo, and one for Bix, about 90 minutes before Odo. Neither left their quarters before morning, Bix to the Repli-mat to socialize (changelings don't need to consume food) and Odo to Operations with Kira.

Two more days went by and the first of the scheduled transport ships and freighters arrived at the station. There were no further incidents on the station.

The investigation team met in Lodrab's office. Everyone agreed that the suspect must have left the station somehow since there were no other incidents. Odo said he would take Bix back to the Founder's home world with him. Nerys was going to go too for a short visit and of course the Vorta would leave with them.

Lt. Cmdr. Oliver was still waiting for more information from the various authorities on the planets in the trail across the sector where the string of murders took place. He said that he wasn't optimistic about getting any more information than what they had already.

Lodrab asked Ezri to put together a carefully worded bulletin for distribution, but not so it would panic anyone since many still fear the Dominion re-invading the alpha quadrant. Ezri was to share it with Lodrab and Oliver before it was distributed to the surrounding systems. The team adjourned the meeting acknowledging that somehow, they missed their opportunity to solve the crimes and bring justice to the victim's families.

~~~~~

The following morning Odo, Luaran, Nerys and Bix boarded Odo's shuttle for the trip to the Founder's home world. Odo's shuttle had a maximum speed of warp 5 so from the time they passed through the wormhole, it was a 31-hour trip to their destination. Kira was excited to see the home Odo had built for her visits.

The shuttles replicators the Founders used weren't up to making anything other than basic food rations, beverages and water, mainly because only the Vorta, Luaran, and Kira needed to eat. Neither Bix, nor Odo needed to consume nourishment, though Odo did to be hospitable when in formal company.
