Chapter 13

The woman who said that moving is one of the most stressful experiences that any woman can go through, was not kidding. We five girls felt our whole world was being torn to pieces. Jenny was carefully monitoring every file and book that was the sum of our years of study and research. The paper and floppy discs alone filled a large van and the removal men shook their heads as each box was methodically filed and noted on Jenny's laptop computer attached to her wheel chair.

Veronica was absent most of the day sorting out the final legalities of gifting the flat to the university as we branched out for pastures new. Jacky and Cye patiently labelled and checked each item as it passed down the path into the vans whilst I span around like a whirling dervish helping to organise the orderly despatch of our belongings from house to vans. The removal men lifted the occasional eyebrow at some of the strange arrangements and fittings but they assumed it was to accommodate our disabilities. They were partially right and no comments or questions arose. I wasn't going to try to enlighten them. Our lives were our own.

Finally, at noon, the convoy found itself on the road. Cynthia, Jenny and Jacky acted as guides in the vans whilst I picked up Veronica from the university and caught the convoy up. Within a few hours we came to our new home.

The hall was a picture. Built in soft red brick and tucked away in the folds of the hills deep in the country. A high boundary wall ensured that we would have privacy as we pursued our researches. Nobody would be able to overlook or spy upon us as we walked the spacious grounds. Beyond the walled grounds lay a thick circle of trees screening the house from any casual observers. Both wall and trees established a physical block to deter any unwanted visitors. Beyond the trees was a ring fence that established the actual legal borders of the estate. Anybody stepping inside the fence was guilty of trespass. It was an ideal setting and we 'hugged' each other as the empty vans finally departed and we explored the house.

Our furnishings and possessions seemed meagre now and they were soon lost in the vastness of the rooms. We were not worried though. Our priorities were to get our experiments up and running. By late evening, the computers were set up and connected 'online'.

It was now up to us to get things moving and this was to prove to be a herculean task. That first night however, we made preparations as best we could for bed. Our huge communal bed had been assembled by the removal men in a large bedroom of the end of the southeast wing. It had huge windows on three sides and caught the sun through the whole day.

We could particularly enjoy the glorious early morning sun for the main part of the house enjoyed a beautiful southerly aspect and sunlight flooded into all the main living rooms.

We clambered into bed that night and all had a delicious time as we shared dreams and plans during our lovemaking. Jacky and I kept quiet about our discussions and plans. We had not had a chance to catch Cye on her own to discuss the many aspects of the veterinary side, about which we had lots to learn.

It was the usual bundle of ' human spaghetti' that greeted the anticipated morning sun. We were not disappointed when I drew the curtains to reveal a glorious sunrise blazing through the windows and casting brilliant shapes on the floor. The leaded lights each cast down their dazzling contribution to the shimmering rainbow that bathed our bed. The other girls let out squeals of delight as they lay on the bed enjoying the treat.

"Why this is beautiful." Cried Jenny as she lay on the bed with the colours of leaded window lights warming her harlequinesque torso. "It's everything I could have wished for. Come here Bev I want to give you a big kiss for all this."

I was still wearing a body stocking and I slithered across the satin sheets to hug Jenny to me. It was her turn for the harness and we decided that because we would be alone all day, except for our friends, we would be able to walk around the grounds unmolested. We were not to see the builders for a few days and we needed some time to ourselves before setting about the construction work. Gleefully, Jenny and I strapped us together and went down to prepare breakfast. I in my body stocking and Jenny in her torso-teddy snugly secured to my tummy with her frilly bum gently tickling my cock. It wasn't long before my cock had escaped through the open crotch of my body stocking and inveigled its way up Jenny's love tube.

Every time I moved or walked my cock would gently slip up or down her cunny as the harness bound her limbless torso close to mine. My erect organ was simply another securing point for her to embed herself on as she happily slipped from orgasm to orgasm all through the day. The only concession we made to modesty for our friends sake was to slip on a 'double sized' mini dress to cover the sight of my organ slipping in and out of Jenny's dripping love tube. As we gently strolled about the grounds with the breeze occasionally lifting our skirt, it was surprising how many times three pairs of greedy eyes just happened to be glancing our way. Jenny and I had a delightful day occasionally bending down to pick flowers and flashing our bum for the benefit of the others.

By evening, our friends were too horny for words. The seats of their wheel chairs were soaking wet as their panty crotches had become flooded with anticipation. Poor Vee was in a desperate state for she had got no hands to relieve the tension.

 

When I put Vee to bed that night her whole torso was as tight as a banjo string with anticipated tension. Jenny was quite content to let Vee 'have' me that night. She had been well 'seen to'. Thus we spent a week luxuriating in the blissful ecstasy of our grounds as we picnicked in various corners of the estate and slipped away into quiet corners to enjoy secret liaisons with different partners each day.

Finally, all good things come to an end. Monday week arrived and we had arranged for the architect to arrive. All morning we rambled around the house and grounds listing our requirements and discussing the alterations as the various aspects of our different researches and work came together.

A working lunch was spent discussing our various domestic requirements and he lifted his eyebrows a few times as various needs were listed. He remained tactful however and never demanded explanations. The size of the bath 'Was going to be a problem though’ he stated and it would have to be cast as an individual item.

"You could get several horses in a bath that size!" He observed innocently.

Jacky and I caught each other’s eyes and almost burst out laughing but we managed to carry on despite our secret plans.

The afternoon was spent designing the labs and here we were on much surer ground. The whole project was completed by teatime and we returned to the house to enjoy a well-earned meal. The architect was invited to tea and he was most solicitous in helping Jenny and Vee. The price was discussed and he was more than happy with the final figure. We agreed that work on the labs should start immediately after planning permission. A few months later the builders arrived on the Monday after the planning permission was granted and the designs had been finalised.

The noise, dust and general mess was appalling but we were well rewarded. After three months the whole complex was handed over to us and we received the keys. It was an excited quintet that explored the premises with the architect as he explained every aspect of the building and the functions of the various modifications that had been installed to accommodate my friends and their disabilities.

"Well ladies. I hope that you're happy with the set-up and your work goes well here. Don't hesitate to contact me if you require any further work."

We drank a toast with the architect and builder and they left well pleased with the work done.

Our work proper now began and it was now that Jacky and I broached our real plans to Cye. She was naturally shocked at first, but she eventually came around to our way of thinking. All the arguments that had persuaded Jacky and I carried the same weight with Cye. She admitted that there was little hope of getting any suitable human donor limbs, especially in Jenny's case.

"Are you really sure that it's possible? Remember that a horse has lots more chromosome pairs than the humans twenty three."

"Yes we know all that. There will be lots of work sorting out the relevant aspects of the two different genomes and splicing them together. I'm still sure that it can be done." Countered Jenny.

"But there are over three billion variables to the human genome alone. That will take years to solve before we even get to the equine genome map."

"You're a little bit off course there Cye." Said Jacky. "I did a lot of comparative genetics with different species. Most of the genes are common for all mammals. The warm-blooded syndrome, the fur syndrome, lives births. They are all common to mammals. I've even identified some of the common genetic sequencing on different chromosomes of different species. Believe me I was very busy with my researches whilst you and Bev trudged your way through medicine and veterinary medicine.

With your and Bev’s help, I don't think it will take as long as you think. Furthermore, with Jenny's brilliant computer and statistical skills, we should be able to make some accurate assumptions and expect a high rate of guessing success. She can easily guide us through the numbers."

"You mean that you've already filled in some of the blanks on the genome map?"

"Yes." Replied Jenny patiently. "What's more, in several different species? It's a process of elimination as well as trial and error. Even when you use reptiles or birds, or even insects and plants; the negative results are still constructive, especially when fed into Jenny's computers for statistical analysis and chain linking."

I could sense Cynthia's rising excitement as she thought about it.

"Well what are we waiting for? Let's get to it. We'll need several different species including horses of course."

"Not so fast Cye." I touched her arm. Jenny and Vee must agree to all this. It will be them that will be affected. There is also the species virus aspect. If we create animals compatible with humans, we might also create viruses that can cross the genetic boundaries. In fact it’s almost a certainty."

"That shouldn’t be too much of a problem. It’s not like a simple organ trans-plant; the ‘centaurs’ would have most of the organs and immunology of horse and human. They would enjoy the combined immunities of both species and that should address the majority of any viral infection risks. Anyway, Jenny and Vee have already stated that they are interested in nothing but mobility. They’re prepared to face most risks."

"In the heat of the moment- yes. If it's put to them as a real option, they might be a lot more circumspect about it."

"Well there's no time like the present." Offered Jacky. "I vote we put it to them tonight in bed."

"O.K." Cye and I agreed.

I was surprised by the enthusiasm that Vee and Jenny showed and even more surprised by the speed with which they agreed to it.

"I had no idea how much these disabilities affected you."

"Oh come off it Bev." Admonished Jenny. "Do you seriously think that we like being hampered like this?"

She wriggled her torso and tiny stumps to emphasise her helpless immobility.

"Can't you remember the games and athletics, the hockey?"

Here Vee nodded her head vigorously to emphasise her concurrence and the five of us sat silently contemplating the huge step. Each of us dealt with the concept in her own way. The silence hung for several minutes until our body language indicated that we were ready to take the plunge. I sensed the silent, nervous 'yesses' in their eyes and quietly spoke for all of us.

"So we go ahead then everybody?"

A soft nervous 'Yes' whispered off their lips.

"Anything in writing needed?" I persisted.

"Best not." Advised Vee. "At least not at this stage. Any way, that's enough talking. Time for lights out."

With these final words, Vee doused the lights and we spent a splendid night on our new big bed. It was so big in fact that occasionally Jenny or Vee got ‘lost’ and we had to search in the dark to find their little torsos in some remote corner of the bed. It was good fun searching though.
