It had been hard to find the cause of the transformations up at "Sissy Lake" but luckily they had captured one of the parasites right after it had left it's male host! The poor man had been transformed forever, at the genetic level, into a writhing female nymphomaniac but he had given them the answer that had eluded them for so long!!!!
Doctor Kane and his assistant Doctor Ripley had studied the parasite for weeks and they were amazed at it's cognitive abilities despite the fact that they could find no brain....at least no brain as they understood it....
It didn't react to Doctor Ripley in any way but whenever Doctor Kane came near it went berserk, trying it's best to get at him....after a few more experiments they discovered that it had no interests in females but would do it's best to attack any male that got within a few feet of the tank!!!!
Ripley could touch it without it reacting and sometimes she stroked it's smooth skin absentmindedly as she wondered about how it knew....
Once they knew what they were looking for the scientists mad short work of the remaining parasites in the lake....the environmentalists had raised hell as they had wiped out all aquatic life in the lake with the high voltage lines....but after the lake was purified and the thousands of dead fish mixed with the parasites had been removed the lake was restocked with native fish species and soon it was once again a thriving ecosystem!
Kane and Ripley dissected dozens of the dead parasites from the lake and their findings were amazing.....there was a small primal brain that was undetected by their prior scans but they determined that it would literally shut down when the monster attacked a host....there simply wasn't enough blood for the brain and the attack mechanism to work simultaneously!!!
But the strangest thing was that they found no reproductive organs of any kind....none!
They didn't think much about it until the first new report of an attack at the lake reached them....
Now they sat and stared at the monster swimming in it's tank in their lab.....and they looked at each other....
If they couldn't reproduce....where were they coming from?
She stepped into the pool....the water was so nice and warm just like back home....she felt the familiar tug and pushed and another of her babies was born.....when it was ready she'd release it into the lake nearby....her mission was to seed this planet and make it ready for the masters to come....she'd had a setback or two but it was nothing to worry about....soon she'd release her babies into the rivers and then into the oceans....after all she could produce several dozen per day.....
