Dawn screamed and came, the eggs continuing to come out of her. At least a dozen were below her, and more were coming.

About a half-hour later, all the eggs were laid. Jerry rose unsteadily, and the tentacles began cleaning him, though gently and tenderly.

Dawn collapsed, exhausted. There were dozens of eggs around her, and laying them had worn her out.

The tentacles gently, tenderly, began cleaning Dawn.

Dawn just laid there, too exhausted to move.

As the tentacles were cleaning Darn, she began feeling energy flooding her.

Dawn rose unsteadily and asked Jerry, -why do I feel so energized?-

Jerry
"That's the power of the soaps the tentacles produce," Jerry said.

-Huh.- then she looked at the eggs carefully. -when do these hatch?-

Jerry
'They won't. They're unfertilized,' Jerry said telepathically.
