Everyone was excited when the bright light glowed as it passed across the sky. Every two hours of so it appeared again and again for nearly the month.
Then as everyone got used to it's appearance it got larger and larger until a huge explosion in the desert got everyohne excited again.
The government told all not to worry and sent several scouts to the site. Word got around they had returned.
Knapp was one who went to the building under heavy guard. His job was to examine each of the beings they found.
Due to a language problem they couldn't communicate except through signals and motions. Knapp was able to notate heartbeat, method of inhaling the air and general body structure.
They were different to be sure. But each seemed passive and though affected by their fallen vehicle, each was able to be patched up. It took weeks for them to recover but eventually their eyes were able to focus and using utensils able to start communicating.
Knapp liked one of them especially. It pointed to it's body and made sounds that Knapp registered as Arker or something like that. Knapp tried to repeat the sound the best he could.
As he continued to explore the beings bodies, Knapp learned more and more. They were indeed similar in circulation, breathing, heartbeat and sexual organs. Ark especially seemed always aroused when Knapp explored him.
Too Knapp being pretty sexually liberal liked arousing Ark and more then once made it ejaculate putting part of the sperm on an examination slide, responding to Ark's sounds.
The population continued interest but as time passed and the beings seemed docile, only academia seemed interested.
Ark and Knapp took walks around the grounds. It tried to point at things and make sounds and Knapp took note hoping to eventually understand their language. He matched his notes with others like him so all could combine what they heard.
Ark and the others were kept in the building, fed, allowed to exercise. Their vehicle was a total wreck, though parts of it were brought to them to get their reaction. From the dismayed expression Knapp and his kindreds knew the beings would probably have to stay among them.
And it was assumed that someday others like them may appear to rescue them. In anticipation the efforts to communicate were enhanced and Knapp was permanently assigned to the duty.
The examinations weren't really needed but Ark and Knapp continued to explore each other physically. As Knapp panted the being he called Ark stuck his organ into him and pumped. Knapp understood and enjoyed it.
This was the same type of sexual satisfaction both beings understood.
He especially liked it when Ark would run this appendages through the hair on his body and pat his stomach. There were different sounds made during this, soothing type noises.
And Ark always loved it when Knapp used his tongue, longer then Ark's on his sexual organ and his anus too.
He didn't understand Ark's patting him all the time but the attention was nice. He figured Ark needed to feel he was dominate somehow so Knapp made sounds back at the being.
Tall, only had two feet and smooth body except for a patch of wire like hair around his sexual organs, Ark looked unlike Knapp and everyone else but seemed nice.
It had appendages which were used to lift things, pet Knapp and even play with his own sexual appendage. And it moved about on two other appendages unlike Knapp who used all four of his for that purpose.
Ark was strange but there was an emotional bond with Knapp. They went everywhere together, Ark continually patting Knapp's head and making those soothing sounds that didnt' seem to really mean anything.
Eventually the dictionary got larger and larger but when the new glow in the sky appeared their two suns had crisscrossed four times. As Knapp looked up at the sky, he felt Ark's excitement and continual pats on his head.
All the beings seemed excited about it. More would come. Knapp wondered if they would be the same as Ark.
He lapped the daily issue of Abbe off of Ark's testicles and sex appendage waiting to taste it's sperm.
And then suddenly he understood Ark's words which sounded like "attaboy" or something like that. Knapp wasn't sure what that meant but Ark was smiling as always when he said it.
He'd tell the others but hoped to understand the meaning so he kept licking everywhere even after Ark's sperm lay on his tongue.
"attaboy" Ark kept saying.
