(Temporally!) Locked (Out) Naked

Cassie Lang, clad in her purple, upgraded Pym tech suit, ran up the penultimate floor of the Citadel, boots stomping, mask down and ponytail flying behind her. She could do it! She knew her father had advised otherwise- but she didn't think this was the time for old advice. The paradigm had changed! Why couldn't they see that she could do it?

She heard him, the Conqueror- making thoughtful sounds in the top chamber. Goosebumps ran down her arms and back inside the suit. She also heard some...other sounds- distress? They didn't sound ****...more- indignant, frustrated? And as she entered she saw him, but she knew her goal- still, she couldn't shake the idea that she had seen something...unexpected on those screens. A flash of skin? She shook her head....all of this acid-trip adventuring was getting to her head. She was elated but a dose of normal might help with that soon- if they could get back.

Lithe and slender, eyes wide and observant, she slunk inside almost gasping before remembering her need for silence. If she could just place one disk in just the right-

And then a snap of the wrist, and her booted feet ceased to move. She tried, she tugged- then remembered how futile that was.

"Hmm. The young woman. It's never fair when it happens so soon."

She looked up at the tyrant, who approached slowly, striding long and regally across the chamber, unaffected by her presence.

"You know, I had planned for this eventuality. One becomes....flexible when one deals with all there is and all that will be."

Cassie reared back the parts above her legs that she could still move and spat at his face. She growled when even that stopped short of his area, frozen in suspension.

"There will be no disrespect, no final defiance. Let us be clear on the terms of this engagement."

Cassie winced as she felt his neuro-kinetic power roam around her suit, her body, her being beneath. She felt him thinking, planning, on what to do- with her.

Then she was released, momentarily stumbling on her knees before righting herself- staring the scarred technocrat in his eyes with great fire and steel.

"At ease. You can feel that I've allowed that, can you not?"

Kang pressed on, lips pursed, eyes occasionally flickering to his monitors, projections and tech. He was multitasking, prepping.

"I've seen many things, many uprisings, many tricks. Let me show you a trick of my own, one does learn."

He actually raised his hand, then looked away while briefly lowering it, glowing.

Then he looked thoughtful. "You won't understand this question. Do people practice hygiene in your time? Do they shower, do they....have expansive wardrobes? I need this info but I could pull it from you as well."

Cassie raised an eyebrow and crinkled her nose. This was now very weird. "Of course we do! I shower! We're clean, and good and-I'm not a barbarian, like where you come from-"

Kang smirked then became stoic. "Good, that checks out."

And then, allowed to, Cassie bit her lip. She shuffled her booted?/(BARE!) feet, unsure. She felt, scattered, multiple, but also condensed- she felt nostalgic and also paranoid. She felt?/(FELT EVERYTHING!) uneasy but also locked in place.

Kang just "hmmph"d and turned around, busying himself with the workings. She approached, then stopped as she felt the fabric?/(AIR!) shift?/(REMOVE!) on her suited?/(EXPOSED!) self. Suddenly, she was approaching him again, filled with rage?/(EMBARRASSMENT!) boots impacting?/(FEET SLAPPING!) as she felt the hard tile?!(THE SMOOTH, STRANGE ALLOY FLOOR UNDER HER TOES!) and had to stop to assess his posture?/(RECOGNIZE HER POSTURE AND THE MOVEMENT OF HER BARE BREASTS!) before throwing out an arm and blaster?/(THROWING A FREE EQUALLY BARE ARM ACROSS HER CHEST AND EXPOSED NIPPLES!) and then leaned back to take the shot?/(HUNCHED OVER, THROWING ANOTHER HAND DOWN OVER HER ALSO BARE NAVEL AND BELLY IN THE OPEN AIR, DEMURELY HIDING THE SPACE BETWEEN HER NAKED THIGHS) as she leaped toward him, gauntlet buzzing with Pym tech?/(SQUIRMED IN PLACE, CLUTCHING HER INEXPLICABLY REVEALED PRIVATES AND THINKING ABOUT THE SENSATION OF HER UNCOVERED, PERKY ASS AS SHE LEANED THIS WAY AND THAT ON BARE, SLENDER SMOOTH LEGS AND DAINTY SMALL TOES ON THE FLOOR OF HIS CITADEL) as she made to attack?/(FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO, TOTALLY CAUGHT UNAWARES BY HER TOTAL EXPOSURE!)

And then nothing?/(SLAM!)

Cassie felt disoriented by her strange mental experience, then saw Kang was where he was, and looking down, that so was she- and then she squealed, despite herself!

Bare shoulders shrugged in disbelief, bare arms threw themselves inwards, and her wide eyes observed.....skin. White, smooth skin. HER SKIN! Her mid-sized breasts and rosy nipples, her delicate collar bones and the sweep of her upper chest, then down to her bare navel and belly button, her hips, her thighs, her....oh god, those were her naked privates- her long legs, and her own dainty bare feet and little toes on the floor! She screamed, then stopped, comically. She reached up....and saw that her hair was still up, tied in a neat pony.

"KANG! What-- wh-what is this?! St-stop it!"

Kang didn't turn around. "No can do. You're locked. Were you ever like this? Ask that."

Cassie flushed and stammered, indignant. "Y-you can't! Of....of course I was l-like this! J-just not-"

Kang shrugged. "And you'll be like this. Let me make it easy for your understanding. Your body was like this, and now it is. Time is locked for it. You will remain in this state as you were. Attempts to change that will be ineffective. I have things to do, times to conquer, good work that may not end. But I will end it. Goodbye, Cassandra Lang- enjoy your life, go back to your time. It may last yet."

Cassie became very embarrassed....and then she felt angry- wronged! How DARE he do something like this? Make a mockery of her at her lowest point, denude her, use her modesty as a weapon- no more!

Cassie leaned back, wincing as she uncovered her perky boobs, then leapt forward, stretching out her bare leg to at least kick this jerk in the face-

Kang nodded at her vaguely, and her flying foot (bare foot) was impacted by a sudden wave of blue energy- and then

She totally missed, falling onto the floor to a familiar, if not very inconvenient sensation! It felt like- like someone was tickling her! Right on her **** bare foot! Fingers intruding all over her exposed skin, between her toes-

Cassie couldn't repress a giggle, despite herself, and it felt even more wrong given the situation. The further indignity enraged the young woman further, who charged (hampered by one irritatingly ticklish extremity) and prepared a punch- to which she was rewarded with a blast to her exposed belly.

This one was even worse!

"Ha- G----Goddamn i-itttt! St-stop already! I'm.....oh god I'm al-already n-naked!!! Ha-Why....w-would you do thiisissisissss!!!!"

Cassie collapsed briefly into squeals both from overwhelming phantom tickles, and from her own humiliation. By the time she stood up, shaking off her shivers....

Kang had merely flicked his hand, and portaled away and out.

Leaving her....oh my god!

Cassie looked around for her suit, finding nothing. Bare feet slapping the floor, uttering groans, whimpers, indignations and curses. Bare parts jiggling, her boobs fighting her arm restraint, aware of her naked bottom.

No clothes, no suit.....

She saw a shawl in the corner, carelessly discarded green fabric. Yes!

She wrapped it around her lithe form and.....no she didn't! How did she NOT!?

Was.....was this what he meant?! Oh god....Oh god no!!!!

And why...she tried her hair tie- and it was like trying to pry steel, suitless...which of course, she was, Cassie though, looking at her feet.

She didn't even remember a time when she was nude, but hair-tied! Except....there was that one time when she thought that Sean would be coming into her dorm-

NO!

Cassie stomped the floor, only hurting her exposed foot. She slumped her bare bottom, wincing, against a metallic booth and held her boobs....and thought in her pretty little head. She would have to descend....back to everyone she knew....not to mention everyone she didn't!

Oh god. She'd be doing it naked!

And if what he said was true.

God help her.
