Max had theatre in his blood. From the time he could walk he
wanted to perform on stage in front of crowds. He was a natural. When Earth joined
the Community of Worlds, Max was considered the most desirable performing
artist/actor to hit the travel circuit to civilized worlds.
The Community of Worlds was almost an exact opposite of ancient
Greece. In Greece’s Classical Period only men were allowed to act on stage. Men
even played the parts of females with appropriate dress. Most planets in the
Community of Worlds felt the opposite way. They did not want—refused to allow—men
to take the stage.
Max knew what he had to do if he wanted to entertain his
fans around the galaxy. A quick trip to TG Incorporated solved his problem. The
offending appendage was replaced with acceptable body parts. Max felt pleased
with the results. Now the stunning
Electra started her first major tour of the Inner Worlds of the Frontier Zone
of the Community of Worlds.
She was more popular than ever on Earth as news feeds
transmitted her performances back home. Demand for Electra to visit worlds grew
so high she became the highest paid entertainer the galaxy has ever known.
As the years went by Electra forgot about Cole. She felt
like a normal woman and refused to change back when she entered retirement.
Besides, she could not leave her husband of eighteen years behind all to have a
body that no longer meant anything to her. And what would the kids think?
