How do you approach the rescue now?

A seductive infiltration

Getting into the park was a breeze, despite the people murmuring about the weird footage from earlier. Fortunately for you, everyone seemed to think this was some sort of viral marketing campaign, because no animal rights activist--especially none so tall and muscular--would dress up like that just to sneak into an aquarium. You roamed the exhibits, trying to look like an actual tourist rather than standing out by going right to the orca tank, so that mean you had plenty of opportunity to hear people's weird opinions on the 'were-orca' from earlier today. You heard everything fears of activist terrorism to media stunts to everything guys wanted to do to an orca girl in bed. ...You heard variations on that one a few times, causing some jealousy to course through you.

Oh, just ignore them, Tori said. I can guarantee that whoever I become when channeling, there's no way I would give those goobers any time of day. You're my anchor, and that's how it'll stay!

Eventually, you made your way over to the orca tank, walking past a sign and right up to a SeaPark staffer. "Um, excuse me, sir," you said, forcing Tori to sound a little dumb and flirty to this guy standing at the entrance to the Naomi exhibit. "What time is the next Naomi show?"

"Exhibit's closed, miss, no shows today." The staffer tried to sound assertive, but you noticed him looking your body up and down, so you made sure to kick up the charm, shifting your hips back and forth and smiling so sweetly at him. He smiled a little back, rubbing his goatee, wordlessly picking up what you were trying to suggest to him with Tori's form.

Oh my goodness, I can't believe you're making me be sexy for this guy! Tori said teasingly. Not that I object, it's a good strategy. I'm just surprised that you went right to it! Are you gonna make me a sexy puppet more often? Sign me up!

You coughed a little to clear your head, and you glanced back at the staffer, looking at his nametag. "Well, uh... Mark. I came here for a good time, so if there's no fish show, then maybe there's something else you could do for me?"

Oh my goooosh! Tori was incredibly amused by the words that you filtered through her. She was loving it in some weird way. You will have to explore this further later in your free time! Did Tori actually like it when you made her move and speak? For now, you had a mission to focus on, so you couldn't dive too deep into it.

The SeaPark staffer gulped. "Um, actually, orcas are mammals, not fish." Good, if this man thought you were an idiot then he'd think you were harmless. He glanced back and forth. He took his walkie-talkie out, clicking it on. "Hey this is Mark, I'm gonna take my lunch a little early, send Doug over to watch gate B." With that, Mark motioned you to follow him, as he walked further toward the tank, and into one of the buildings near the secondary orca tank. You could see Naomi in there, you were so close! Mark led you to a little office, gulping again as he started breathing faster, looking you over once more. You weren't at all dressed in any sexy way, you were just available and clearly a woman and that apparently was enough. You gulped yourself, worried that you might have to follow through with this plan. You set your backpack down, glancing around as you thought fast. "Before we start, do you think you could get me a glass of water?"

"Of course, miss. Important to stay hydrated." He hurried off to the breakroom down the hall, and you knew it was showtime.

Okay, here's the plan, you thought so Tori would be clear after the channeling ended. We're gonna split up, since they're still looking for me, I'll be a diversion and Naomi should be all yours. I'm basically going to just run out of the park, and then if I'm not arrested, I'll meet you by the water near the bridge again, okay?

With a nod, you split apart again. While you didn't have any clothes, you grabbed the backpack and hurried out of the office, heading into another space across the hall so you could get dressed. You watched Tori wander out of the office as well, hustling outside to some shrubbery by the pool, but waiting for your signal. You donned the pants and shirt as quickly as you could, listening quietly to Mark walk by. "Now where in hell did she go..." you heard Mark say, before you came out of the office, pushing him into the office and shutting the door. "Release Naomi!" you yelled, hoping that Mark would get on the walkie talkie and inform everyone else. Outside by the pool, there were three staffers watching the pool and the surroundings. After they all took off in your direction, zero remained to obstruct Tori. She didn't need much time at all, but she needed time to escape as well, so you hoped by running off like a loud idiot, taking the theory from the news to heart and pretending to be a crazed activist, that everyone would just be looking for you.

You led everyone on quite the chase, realizing just how stupid this plan had been. There was no way you were going to make it out the front without one staffer tackling you, and they were closing on you faster than you were heading toward an emergency exit. But, just in time, a new call came in over the loudspeakers that all guests should evacuate the restaurant area. When you glanced over, you saw a tall, muscular woman, shouting 'release Naomi' slogans as well, while nobody suspected that she was in fact partly Naomi in the first place! Predictably, staffers stopped to look at the incredibly tall woman, either turning to chase her down or just boggling at the sheer size of the 'were-orca', although she really just looked like a muscular woman in a wetsuit this time, lacking a tail. Like a good friend and partner, Tori bought you some time as well! You took the distraction as the perfect opportunity to slip out of a nearby exit, jogging down the street away from SeaPark. As you ran along the pier, you saw a large splash in the water, and the Naomi-shaped silhouette vanished underwater once again, as everyone got an encore performance from the morning earlier!

You took some time to rest from all the running, needing some time to recover. This was going to be so easy, but there was so much running involved... after a few minutes to catch your breath, you hurried over to the bridge again, climbing under the structure to the spot you'd been at this morning. When you arrived, you saw Tori-Naomi, not an impossibly tall woman with an orca tail but rather just a very strong-looking girl in an actual stolen SeaPark wetsuit instead. As you came closer, at first Tori looked like she was about to dive to safety again, but when she saw it was you she just smiled widely. "I toned it down a little bit in this channeling with Naomi. Still looks good, don't you think? I could get used to this..." Tori flexed her arm under the skintight wetsuit, which it was amazing that the suit could withstand the power from those biceps! "I was going to just walk out, but then I saw everyone heading your way and I had to make a scene of my own."

"Well, I'm just glad that you--"

Tori stepped in front of you, grabbed each side of your head with her newly giant hands, and pulled you into a long, drawn out kiss. She may have been a little more aggressive than normal, pushing against you with the strength she possessed, until you were up against the concrete wall--and maybe an inch off the ground! "I could really get used to this! Both sides of me think so."

You blinked, unable to do much else while pinned by the strong Tori. "Both of you? What do you mean? Naomi, don't you want to be back in the ocean with your pod?"

"I do! I really do. I haven't seen them in years, and when I think about being back with them, I get excited by the prospect. If I'm honest, though, I've seen so much human activity through the glass in my cage, and that always made me curious, but on land I can see the secrets of these cities! I can go places an orca would never see. Orcas are pretty long-lived, I could do one for a year and then the other, if Tori would allow..." Tori cleared her throat. "Which of course I would. It's a lot to think about though. So, for the moment, I'm going to end the channeling. If neither my mom or myself come back in ten minutes, then I've made the decision to stay in the water--but if you could come back next year, I would love to try the human world then. Otherwise, either my mother or myself will return to deliver a proper reward, via channeling."

Tori winked, and then she climbed into the water. "Oh, I have to do one other thing, I'll be right back. Mama orca had been doing a little scavenging hunt for me." As one of the other orcas came near, she took a deep breath and dove under the water, disappearing for quite some time. When she resurfaced, she tossed a few things up on land to you! The pile had some shredded clothes, but more importantly Tori's phone and wallet and glasses all came up in the bundle. With all her belongings once again gathered up, Tori held out a hand, ending the channeling with Naomi.

You helped Tori back out of the harbor, watching as the orca slipped below the water, drifting away swiftly. Now in a very ill-fitting wetsuit, Tori grimaced and looked down at herself. "I really need some stretchy clothes, this trip has been an absolute nightmare for that. This feels like a clown suit on me now!" Tori held her arms out, and you saw what she meant, with all the extra material just flapping around on her. With a chuckle, Tori sat down again, to check if her phone and other things still worked.

You sat down next to Tori. "You're fine with one of them returning to use your body solely for you and I having fun?"

"Yep," Tori said casually, picking up her glasses to check for scratches.

"And if Naomi actually wanted to channel you for, what, a year? You're fine with that?"

Tori glanced at you as she slid her glasses on. "Would you be fine with that? I know I absolutely would. Naomi is sweet and inquisitive and it's solely because an orca is so massive that she can lend me those incredible muscles! I don't have to keep those, I could channel her and look totally normal, but I like them quite a bit, don't you? She likes you too, she thinks what you did was very brave and is extremely grateful, so do you want a muscly friend, either now or later?"

"I can't say no to that, that sounds like a fun future," you said, thinking of all the possibilities. But at least for now, you and Tori stared at the water, to see what the orcas decided.

Do either orca return? Or is it back to just you and Tori once again?
