Serpent's Tooth

[Cherubian]

Verialyn watched Krolsheek suddenly halt in his tracks, stiffen, then start jerking uncontrollably as he crumpled to the floor. That one was out for good, and so her attention immediately was on Moldik, and not a moment too soon.

The man had reached beneath his cloak and produced a sharpand glinting throwing dagger, and he was tossing it towards the black haired woman. Now that she was aware of the attack, though, it posed no real threat, and to the healers amazement she plucked the knife right out of the air as she rushed up to him, letting go of her hold over Oglaf, and sent Moldik into the land of dreams with a lightning fast punch to his temple.

She was about to turn back to Oglaf and Phyliss, just glancing briefly into the room, when she froze and spoke "Oh my god, what is that?"

 

[Belinda35]

Phyllis watched her friend, taking out the healer, and turned back to Oglaf. She looked him into his eyes and said in a very strict voice. "You will behave and keep sitting down, will you? Or I come back for you." Her snakes brushed over him, and she put on a fierce expression, very different from the frightened broken girl he had seen not long ago. Then she stood up and moved over to her friend, and looked carefully into the room.

 

[Cherubian]

The room appeared to be a makeshift torture chamber of sorts, containing all sorts of devices for advanced punishment.

The interesting part, though, was the big central table. The two girls that had gone with Moldik lay onto it, on their backs, hands and feet spread out and tied to the table's legs. And all over their breasts and stomach soeone - likely the healer - had carved a strange pattern, now crimson with the girl's own blood.

 

[Belinda35]

"Are they dead?" Phyliss checked that nobody was hiding, and she could see no trap, what would have been quite unlikely. She looked down to the healer again, but he was still out. They would better keep an eye on him.

 

[Cherubian]

"They are still breathing" Verialyn had noticed their chests rise and fall. Taking a step closer she added "The cuts aren't very deep, likely they are in shock more than anything."

Right then the eyes of one of the girls fluttered open. "Please ...." she whimpered "help me ...."

 

[Belinda35]

"My healing powers are gone like anything else. I hope they will come back one day..." said Phylis, as she stepped into the room and looked around. She didn'rt really know how the help the victims. She could not renember if they had been among them taunting her, but that shouldn't matter now anhow. "All we can do is release them."

 

[Cherubian]

"Will you do that? I better check on the guys outside so none of them suddenly decide to leave."

Already Verialyn was turning back to see what Oglaf had been up to.

 

[Belinda35]

Phyliss moved forward and started to untie the victims, as there was not much more she could do. She had some superficial medical skills, but not even a piece of cloth; and her healing magic was gone so far.

Outside Oglaf had come back to the senses. He knew that he would not stand a chance against these "girls", even with a weapon. The magic was still down and out, and he doubted he would be such a great help in a fight against two hellish creatures. He had looked over to the slaves, that were simply stunned drom what they had witnessed, no help would be coming from there. They would just run, or even attack and kill him if he opened the cage. The best thing would be to get away and find some help outside, as he sneaked to the door.

 

[Cherubian]

"Oglaf, you really think you can outrun me?"

Apparently Verialyn had returned to the main chamber in the nick of time, seeing how dangerously close the overweight slaver already had gotten to the door. Should he decide to bolt now she would indeed have to run after him.


The slaves she had untied looked up thankfully to the gorgon, and one of the girls even managed to raise her upper body. At least for her the wounds seemed to be mostly superficial. "Thank you" she breathed quietly, while looking at the door to the main chamber, still frightened and feeling far from safe.

 

[Belinda35]

"I think your're save now... the slavers and Moldik are down." Phyliss still wasn't sure if these were some of thouse who taunted her before, but it shouldn't matter now. The danger and rush events had brought her back to reality by now, and she was thinking and worrying what to do and where to go. She was sorry for the victims, but didn't waste to much time for them. They had to find some money and some suitable clothes. Should they release the slaves? This was dangerous, as they might attack her or try to rob the money (if they would find it), on the other hand, it would be easier to escape after a slave uprising. She went back to the room to meet her friend.

Oglaf was close at the door now. Should he run or wait? Wait for what, his punishment by the slaves? Anything but that! There was no time to think about it. He jumped up and decided to run.

 

[Cherubian]

"All right, have it your way..."

Verialyn sighed deeply even as she started to sprint after Oglaf, and indeed the fat slaver only made it about ten meters out of the door when he was suddenly hit by a strong force in the back, that force being the vampire lady pouncing onto him and sending him face first to the ground, landing right atop him.

 

[Belinda35]

"Ouggghhhhh" Oglaf was silent for some moments, feeling the weight of that fiendish creature on him. Turning his head, he saw the gorgon, too, standing in the open door, just watching, her snakes curling.
"What do you want from me? We did you come to haunt us?"

 

[Cherubian]

"Actually ..." Verialyn grinned down at him "... it was simply bad luck that we met. Bad luck for you. That and your lack of manners. So as a punishment now you will have to serve us ..."

For emphasis one of her arms reached back and her hand slipped between his legs, her fingers gently cradling his testicles.

"Ain't that so, my firend?" She looked up at the gorgon, curious whether her companion had a better idea.

 

[Belinda35]

"First of all, we need some decent clothes. And money..." She thought about her own runaway slaves and all the treasures they took along... Did they even have a chance to find them again, after several days had passed since the wargs attack?
"What a fat little ugly bastard..." she murmured, wondering why he should appeal to her friend.

 

[Cherubian]

"You heard the lady" Verialyn forwarded the message to Oglaf, still pinned beneath her. "And you certainly have some fine dresses here, used to make you merchandise presentable, don't you?"

 

[Belinda35]

"Oughhh, don't push anymore... yes, we have some dresses here, those brought along by slaves and some we have for presenting when we deliver... you can have them...." Oglaf knew he had to play along, if he wanted to live. Did he have a chance after all? Wouldn't these monsters, pretty as they seemed, just murder him?

Meanwhile Phyliss looked over her shoulder, to check if Moldik was still out. She went back and picked up the dagger, just to be sure. The slaves turned silent, as she looked into the direction of the cage. Times had changed by now.

 

[Cherubian]

"Now that is a good boy..." Verialyn praised Oglaf, though she was not entirely serius. She did get off of him and to her feet, though. "Now you will be nice and not try to run away, yes? Instead you can show us those dresses."

Moldik meanwhile began to stir, only slightly though. He was still a good bit away from wakefulness.

As Phyliss stood there and watched him, one of the women in the cage, a voluptous redhead barely eighteen years old with a friendly round face dared to address her "Hello, please, can you let us out?" If the gorgon's memory served her right, that girl was one of the women that were quite agitated when she had entered the cage previously.

 

[Belinda35]

Phyliss turned her head into her direction and looked at her - not angry, but rather cool, without hiding her despise for her.
"You sounded quite different a moment ago, if I renember correctly." She turned around to Oglaf who came inside.
"I have the dresses in a different room. Will you please follow me..."
Phyliss walked up to him, keeping an eye on Moldik.
"Maybe you better tie him up, Verialyn? Or throw him into the cage with the male slaves."

 

[Cherubian]

At that Verialyn had to grin.

"Why not throw him in the cage of the female slaves? He seemed to have a few acquantances there?"

 

[Belinda35]

"Why not? But take care. I heard some of them calling "kill the monster", "give it to the snake bitch" and other unpleasant things not long ago. I don't want anybody attacking me from behind or some treacherous doublecrossers running of to sell us out."

 

[Cherubian]

"I did not suggest for you to get inside" Verialyn comforted her friend as she searched Oglaf's pockets until she found the cage key.

Grabbing the still unconscious Mordik by the arm she dragged him over to the entrance of the cage, and them briefly dropped him to unlock the door.

"Hey Oglaf, why don't you contribute to our entertainment by getting out your dick?"

 

[Belinda35]

"Hmm.ummpphhh...why..." Oglaf wasn't very excited, but he still felt some bruises left by Verialyn, and saw kroolshek and Moldik on the floor, so he opened his pants and pulled his dick out. It wasn't small at all, but hanging limp.
"So, that's it."
Phyliss stood a few feet behind him, looking out for the cages. She had reasons not to trust the slaves, and she was more ancious to get some clothes and money and get away as soon as possible. She still hoped to get back her possessions, although there wasn't much hope.

 

[Cherubian]

Verialyn acted quickly now, pulling upen the cage door, tossing the medic's limp form inside and immediately throwing the door shut again after him, turning the key in the lock.

The female slaves darted to the sides as the Moldik landed in their midst, but among all the confucion and hectic certain elements of malice directed towards the sadistic male could already me detected.

Verialyn meanwhile stepped up to Oglaf and matter of factly gripped his penis. "You know, we could consider this an insult. Here you get to gaze at us two naked lovelies, and still you are not getting the least bit hard?"

Not waiting for a reply she added "So go ahead, show us those dresses. Uhh Phyliss, we don't have anything to fear from the other one, do we?" Her chin briefly jerked towards Krolsheek's poisoned form.

 

[Belinda35]

"No, never again." said Phyliss rather cold, as the amount of poison would have killed a large bull instantly.
She followed Oglaf who seemed to be quite happy to exit into the next room, his dick slapping as he walked, before he put it inside again as he opened a large chest.
"Here are the clothes. Help yourself, ladies."
Phyliss started browsing right away, but said. "Let's not forget about some traveling money."

 

[Cherubian]

Phyliss was so absorbed with her browsing, that Verialyn's comment came as a bit of a surprise. "You are sure about that never again part?"

As she spoke she pointed to the entrance of the storage chamber. There, frantically clutching the doorframe to keep himself upright, half stood, half hung ... Krolsheek. He most definitely was not in good shape, his skin deathly pale, a glazed look in his eyes, his mouth hanging half open as he stared at the trio. Only his cock, still sticking out of his pants, was at full mast.
