Challenge #2 Morning

Laura woke up still cuddling her pink haired sister. She smiled and kissed her on the forehead before abruptly realizing she was being starred at by Shar. Again.

"Must you keep doing that?"

"Stop giving such fun reactions and perhaps I'll quit." Shar grinned at Laura while Stacy raised her head.

"What? Oh you. Is it time already?"

"No, I'm just here to let you know you two will still be breakfasting in here. Wouldn't be fair to rob you of your full day after all, but after you are done both of you are clear to come down and meet with the rest in the dinning hall. Be there by eight at the latest but you may come as early as you like."

And with that Shar was gone.

"Freedom!" Laura crowed, throwing both fists in the air.

"Okay Ms. Wallace, but about some breakfast first?"

"Of course, anything you want."

.

Shar looked down at the three women entwined together in their sleep, still wearing their previous day's undergarments, and shook her head. There was no way the probably still slightly **** women would be up in time, and having them dragged down nude today just wouldn't do. Shar glanced over at the bedside table noting the three hangover pills on a silver tray they'd at least had the foresight to purchase.

With a sigh Shar reached over and pulled Misty out of the tangle of limbs then woke her with a snap of her fingers.

"Ohhhh! Gah, my head." Misty tried to curl up in a ball as Shar handed her one of the pills. Taking it Misty blinked up at the redheaded host in relief and shock. "Is it time already? Oh fuck, that was a bad idea wasn't it?"

"No, and yes. You have time to wake your bedmates, get ready, and go down for breakfast. The pre challenge meeting will be in the dining hall at eight."

"Thank..." Shar was gone before Misty could finish her reply. Grimly she turned to the task of waking the musicians next.

.

Shar didn't need to stop by Susan and Tracy's room, they were both up already and busy in the shower with Tracy doing her best to drain the busty woman's breasts.

Candy and Gabriella were also awake and having a conversation about preparations for the challenge. Shar decided to listen in.

"I know you prefer your sundresses, I love my own dresses just as much if not more, but we don't know what kind of challenge this will be. If it turns out to be something physical more practical wear could be vital and if it turns out to be intellectual they at least won't detract."

"Well what if it's a fashion show?"

"A fashion show?! How would that even work with each of us wearing a different style?"

"I don't know, that's just the first thing I thought of for a social challenge."

"Okay, that is a fair point but we don't know if they fit easy categories. I'll be wearing my gardening outfit regardless and I highly recommend you wear your active wear yourself."

Shar was glad at least someone was trying to plan ahead. And to be fair Tracy was trying to help Susan as well and maybe that could be considered a plan if she was hoping for teamwork. hard to tell with Tracy.

.

Approaching Anna's door Shar was met by the tall Latina stepping into the transport room.

"You're getting quite an early start I see."

"I'm used to getting up really early anyways what with the shop and all. You checking up on us?"

"I want today to go the best it can for each of you. A proper contest, doing your best to fight for your place with Laura."

"And avoid the worst of the transformations." Anna smiled.

Shar laughed. "And to avoid the worst of the transformations, yes. Potential victory point loss in this round as well but none of you should be all that worried about that the way you girls have been going."

"That isn't going to be a problem is it? We're racing to a hundred points over ten laps but some of us are already more than halfway there."

"It is a concern, and you are right to be worried but it will be addressed at the meeting this morning."

"Yeah I figured you'd need to do something to keep the audience engaged, I just hope it doesn't fuck us too much." Anna grimaced with worry. She hadn't meant to bring up her fears, especially not with the woman in charge, but it had just slipped out.

"It's not that bad, think of it as more extending the finish line than handicapping the drivers."

Anna breathed out in relief. "Thanks, I needed to hear that. You coming down to breakfast too?"

"No. Last minute things to take care of and all. I'll be seeing you at eight." Shar then left, leaving Anna blinking at the empty room.

"I hate when she does that."

.

Soon Shar was standing before a very different door. One not very far from her own bedroom in fact. Her knock was quickly answered by the green haired elf within.

"Is it time already?" Evelyn asked.

"It is, and speaking of time I have a gift for you." Shar held out an elaborate golden pocket watch she'd pulled out of a hidden pocket.

Evelyn took it in trembling hands. It wasn't the watch she'd had before, that she in all likelihood would never see again, but it was very nice.

"Thank you." She managed to get out feeling a bit choked up.

"I thought you could use it to keep track today. I'm putting you in charge of timing during the event."

Tears welled up in Evelyn's bright green eyes. She knew, somehow Shar knew how much keeping time meant to her, and she was letting her handle a big part of the challenge on only her second day here. "You can count on me. I won't let you down."

"I never had a doubt."

.

For the first time in what felt like a whole lot longer than a single week Laura was outside of the master suite again. Stacy and her were now standing in front of the doors to the dining hall. The two of them each pushed a door open and entered seeing everyone seated around the big table.

"Huh, that's new." Laura thought Stacy must be talking about the big throne like chair that was at the table's midpoint. She didn't remember it from the one meal she'd had here on their first day.

"Probably for me." Laura said, noting that Candy and Anna had taken the chairs to either side of it.

"Well yeah, no shit." Stacy said, and went to go sit next to Tracy who was waving to the both of them. And now had cat ears of all things.

"What the hell Tracy?" Laura yelled having followed Stacy over.

"Hey not so loud, their sensitive. Ha! Just kidding, I'm fine. Found a treasure card much like Anna's, permanent cat ears and tail. Apparently Feline Luck too, whatever that means."

"Well so much for just getting implants."

"Pffft, cat girls are sexy and you know it."

Laura continued on to the throne looking to make sure no one else seemed to have accrued more changes. She did see that Gabriella and Candy were wearing a shirt and jeans instead of their usual dresses. Everyone else was in their normal attire though.

Before sitting down she leaned over to give Anna a hug. While everyone else seemed done with breakfast Anna still had near a full plate she was digging in to. "How much have you had to eat today?"

Candy jumped up and gave Laura a hug of her own and said before Anna could reply. "That's her fifth plate, and not small portions. She's cheating." Candy laughed as Anna blushed and quickly swallowed to defend herself.

"I am not cheating! I'm just using my transformation to boost my strength for a bit. In case it helps."

"I don't think you can cheat." Misty chimed in from under her hood. "I couldn't use my cards to tell me anything about the challenge."

Laura took her seat while Anna turned back to her food and Candy took back to her own chair. "Well if the challenge is strength related you already have an advantage so it probably doesn't matter."

Anna just shrugged.

.

There wasn't much opportunity for more conversation as the time soon hit eight and the double doors opened on their own to frame the tall host, with a shorter unfamiliar green haired woman hovering behind her. As Shar stalked into the room the other woman moved to her side so everyone could get a better look.

Carla leaned over towards Gabriella. "That is what dominatrix gear looks like." She told her. Gabriella was shocked and was suddenly even more glad the vote hadn't inflicted such upon her.

"Good morning ladies!" Shar boomed out. "It is time for the second challenge of the season! But first some details that need handling."

She gestured to the Green haired woman who Laura was shocked to see had very long pointed ears, like an elf or something. But while Shar made her, and everyone but Anna, look short she was really above average at about 5'8" or so. "This is Evelyn." The leather glad woman waved and adjusted her glasses. "She was host of her own season that was unfortunately canceled for unforeseen reasons, and will now be working for me as my assistant. She will be eating with you here during meal times and generally be available for any questions and concerns you might have. She speaks with my authority so do respect her word. Any question?"

Candy's hand shot up.

"You don't have to raise your hand Candy, just ask."

"Are you really an elf?!"

"I am."

"A transformation?" Gabriella asked eyebrow raised.

"No, no transformations. I'm not from your world." Evelyn replied to the Professor's question.

"There are many worlds in the multiverse beyond your own." Shar told them. "You happen to be on one now." Gabriella nodded having suspected something like that.

"Now on to the second bit of business, the scores." And Shar gestured back to the large screen over the dinning hall door, turning to face it.

Susan Wagner 68 VP 800 BP

Carla Wright/Kim Baker 53 VP 1300 BP

Candy Henderson 52 VP 3900 BP

Tracy Black 52 VP 1000 BP

Stacy Black 46 VP 5500 BP

Anna Rodriguez 35 VP 2400 BP

Misty Dawn 32 VP 3400 BP

Gabriella Escarra 28 VP 2000 BP

"As you can see you've all been doing quite well for points, some of you much much better than others but still everyone of you is past a quarter of the points needed for your goal. In only the first week of ten. Some of you can almost certainly see the problem here and members of the audience have as well."

Shar turned back to face the table once more. "Let me reassure you that you are not in trouble. I am in fact quite proud to be hosting what very well may be the randiest group to ever set foot on Harem Hotel. But the audience must be appeased, and to that end I conducted a survey to see what they our viewers wanted to be done about the situation. I have waited until now to reveal the results so that you could hear it as well as it concerns you and your future."

Despite the tall woman's attempts at reassuring them many of the women seated before her were quite nervous. Especially Gabriella who was sitting in last place. Misty took her hand and whispered to her. "It's okay, everything will be all right."

Shar faced the far corner of the room and with a gesture brought the focus in tight on a close up of herself to the viewers. "Of the many options presented to you our audience two dominated leaving the rest far behind. By a very narrow margin the winner was Fuck It! so the points will continue on as they have. I am very glad that the majority of you are enjoying the sexy antics of my contestants as much as I have. However Move The Goal Posts being in close second deserves it's own considerations, and to that end I must reveal the new goals and their prizes!" Another transparent screen lit up next to Shar showing a chart.

100VP Free Upgrade

200VP BP Prize

300VP Top Tier Lock In

400VP Free Boon

500VP 1 TF removed

"As you all can see this is not in fact a punishment, only that more prizes have been added pushing back the original one hundred goal prize to now three hundred. And if our horny go getters can actually manage to reach five hundred my Producer has agreed to the more than generous prize of having the transformation of their choice removed."

The screen faded and Shar turned back to the stunned women. "And as before whoever ends with the most VP still wins the wish."

Evelyn was fairly shocked herself. You couldn't even use a wish to remove transformations. Shar's Producer must be really confident five hundred was a unreasonable goal but that could be a huge motivation to someone shackled with something they truly hated.

"Any questions now?"

"Do we get to pick the upgrade?" Tracy wanted to know.

"You pick which transformation is upgraded yes, but not the specifics of the upgrade."

"What about the boon?" Anna asked.

"You will get to pick one from a short list. Nothing more? Very well then, if everyone will follow me, it's time to get this challenge started!"

Shar turned as the massive doors opened themselves once more and strode out into the hall with the slim elf hard on her heels.
