I am the warrior, well, I am the warrior

“There there, Toffee, that’s it, drink your fill,” Vivian cooed, rubbing her hand gently long the neck of the gorgeous chestnut-colored horse as he drank from the river. She looked wistfully up at the sky, where not too long ago she had seen the announcement of Rose’s elimination.

A sigh escaped her lips.

“I suppose that’s a right cock-up, now isn’t it,” she groused, shaking her head. She’d proposed splitting up so she could serve as the decoy and draw the attention of the other girls and give Rose and Ella time to scrounge up weapons and ammunition for a counterattack. But not only had she failed to find anything herself, but it looked like the girls had gone after Rose instead.

“No signs from Ella, though. I wonder if she managed to escape?” Vivian wondered.

“Something like that.”

A rustle from the bushes caught Vivian’s attention, and she turned to see Ella emerge with a grim expression on her face. She was holding Rose’s gun, and didn’t look at all happy about it.

Vivian was happy to see she was unharmed, though. “Ella!” She said, her face lighting up. “You’re safe! They didn’t catch you?”

Ella shook her head. “You either,” she noted.

Vivian laughed. “Ah, yeah, nope. Nobody’s faster than Toffee here! Still, no luck in finding ammo,” she said with a sigh. “What about you? Did you and Rose manage to find anything, before she got, well… wiped out?”

The other girl blinked.

“…Yeah,” she bluntly replied after a pause, jerking up the barrel of her rifle before Vivian could respond.

“ZIP! ZIP!”

Two shots hit Vivian right in the stomach and she doubled over, her face heating up. Her eyes widened in surprise. “Ella-?! What-!”

“Wrong,” the other girl said, her lips curling up into a smirk. “But then, you’re not the most perceptive person when it comes to others, are you?”

“ZIP!”

Another shot brought Vivian to her knees. She started breathing hard and scrambled to her feet, trying to get away. But it was a halfhearted effort as best. She was quite familiar with guns, and knew that unarmed she’d have no chance of getting out of that rifle’s range, even on horseback. Not before Ella- no, Cinder- pumped her full of enough aphrodisiacs to make her cum her brains out.

Letting out a resigned sigh, she shrugged, and offered the other girl a remorseful smile. She knew when she’d been beaten.

“So you’re Cinder… this is the first time we’ve really had a chance to chat, huh?” Vivian noted, rubbing at the wet spots on her clothing. Hopefully the aphrodisiacs would wash out. “I’m Vivian, nice to meet you.”

Cinder narrowed her eyes and shot her again. “No talking,” she gruffly barked.

“Aww, come on, don’t be like that…” Vivian leaned against her horse to maintain her balance. “I’m trying to be personable here and everything, you know!”

Cinder glared at her from behind her bangs and fired again.

“ZIP!”

“Ack, that’s getting hard to ignore… you know, I’m starting to think you don’t like me!” Vivian wasn’t used to being this aroused. She fought own her urges, but it was pretty difficult. Only a few more shots would do it.

“I don’t have an opinion of you one way or the other,” Cinder replied. “Right now, you’re my opponent here. That’s it.”

“That’s it? Well, that’s a load of bullocks,” Vivian said. “You could be working with me, you know, rather than going at me like a maniac! There are still three more girls you’ve gotta take down, luv! I could help you-ouuouhn!!”

Another shot from Cinder’s rifle pushed her sentence into a moan. Vivian bit her lip and tried to regain her composure, wondering if there was some way she could talk the other girl out of this. But she only saw an icy wall of fury in front of her, like back when she tried to explain to Amelia that her jet’s engine had eaten her homework.

No mercy was reflected back in those eyes.

“…So that’s it, huh? You think you can take them all on by yourself?” Vivian sighed, shaking her head. She could at least respect the courage.

Then she saw Cinder sneer triumphantly. “Let’s just say… I have a secret weapon now. Stashed away somewhere.”

Vivian nodded. So they found something after all… probably why Rose got knocked out. And I’m the fool then.

“Just one more thing… I’m dying to know, really,” she said, adjusting her hat. She wanted to look her best for the cameras, after all. “How did you know I’d be here? You didn’t seem surprised at all to see me. You even pretended to be Ella so I’d lower my guard, since we were teamed up together. But I made these arrangements with Ella, not with you. You’re supposed to have no memory of the things Ella does, right? So you shouldn’t have remembered the river.”

Vivian narrowed her eyes, trying to look composed even on the brink of orgasm. “So what’s really going on here?”

Cinder blinked. Then she curled up her lips into another sneer. “…Is that so?”

“ZIP!”

“Oh, darn, something’s gone wrong with the cameras!” Dakota gasped as the screen faded to black, right about the time Vivian adjusted her hat. “Oh, silly me, how could I have made such a mistake?”

“Wait, what’s happening?” Rose demanded. “Cinder’s eliminating Vivian, and we just missed it!?” The only thing they saw projected on the screen was static.

A few moments later Vivian appeared onstage with them, panting and flushed. She had clearly just gone through an orgasm, but the actual act itself had been tragically missed due to technical errors. What a sad state of affairs.

“Well, that sure was something,” Vivian grumbled, looking up at her face projected on the sky.

THE FALLEN

VIVIAN CARRINGTON

She confronted Dakota immediately.

“What about Toffee?” She demanded. “Is he going to be alright!? He’s all alone there now!”

“With Cinder, actually,” Holly unhelpfully added.

“Please tell me he’ll be okay!” Mary begged frantically, her eyes widening.

Dakota sighed and rolled her eyes. “Don’t you girls bawl your heads off, the horse is going to be fine,” she scoffed, shaking her head. “Just fine.” She waved her cane. “There we go. He’s right back in his stable now. And look, the power’s back on!”

Vivian and Mary shared a sigh of relief.

Dawn couldn’t feel relieved though, and neither could Morgana.

“Cinder’s taken over,” Dawn glumly muttered. “I hope everything works out for Ella… having Cinder on the loose like that…”

“Treacherous bitch,” Rose scowled, crossing her arms over her chest. “Stabbing me in the back like that! The nerve! After I looked out for her the whole game, too!”

“Don’t blame it on Ella!” Morgana pleaded. “That was Cinder!”

Vivian raised her eyebrow. She had a lot of questions to ask the vicious latina the next time they met. And Cinder wouldn’t be able to shut her up with magic aphrodisiacs this time.

Dakota cleared her throat. “Let’s get back to the game then, shall we?” She said, indicating to the screen. “Look! Dani’s group just got the news!”

Everyone in Dani’s little group of misfits stopped what they were doing when they saw Vivian’s face flash overhead.

“Wait… Vivian’s out too?” Marley questioned.

Gina shook her head. “No, no way, that doesn’t make any sense! Rose I get, after taking that shotgun blast, it looked like she was about to keel over from orgasm right there. But Vivian? We haven’t done anything to her!”

Carly frowned. Gina was right, they had dismissed Rose’s elimination as her giving into her urges and making herself cum, or losing her concentration and not being able to hold back the tide of her aphrodisiacs. But now that Vivian had been eliminated as well, they had to adjust their way of thinking.

“Now that you mention it, Rose isn’t the type to give in like that,” she said. “She’s got way too much willpower to just give in. She’d fight it tooth and nail, just like Dani here.”

Dani nodded in agreement. “Rose and Vivian are both out… that means… Ella is the only one left, then? So what, did she take them both out? Or Vivian took out Rose, and Ella got her as payback?”

Those were the only two possibilities.

“Well, who cares?” Gina asked with a cheerful smile. “What matters is that there’s only four of us left, and that means it’s us three against her! We should easily be able to take her down!”

“I wouldn’t be too sure about that.”

Everyone jumped.

“Dakota?!” Dani whirled around, trying to find the source of the disembodied voice, but Dakota was nowhere to be seen.

“Greetings and congratulations, those who have made it this far! There are only four contestants remaining!” Dakota cheerfully announced over the island. “Because two-thirds of you have been eliminated, we’re going to change the rules slightly. There are too few of you for a very interesting game, you see, especially with all the hiding four people can do in an area this large. So in order to speed things up a bit…”

A large rocky ledge jutted itself up in the middle of the island, much to everyone’s amazement. The escarpment bulged up over the trees and hills, rumbling to a stop. The quakes only lasted for a few moments in all.

“…That pillar of stone right there is dead center in the middle of the battlefield,” Dakota explained. “I would advise making your way to it as soon as possible, because starting right now, the existing boundaries are about to become a lot more… rigid.”

Carly’s heart sank. She had a good idea what that meant.

“Let me guess,” Dani said, rolling her eyes. “You’re going to start shrinking the boundary, is that right? Like drawing in a net to push us all closer together, and if we don’t get to the middle of the battlefield soon, we’re going to get eliminated?”

Silence hung in the air momentarily.

“…Listen here you little shit, stop upstaging me,” Dakota said, with just enough levity in her voice to show she wasn’t actually upset with the tomboy. If anything she sounded almost proud. “You’re exactly correct! Better get a move on, then!”

And with that, she was done. She’d relayed a similar message to Cinder, who was currently making plans of her own.

The girls all looked at each other.

“…So eliminate Gina?” Dani asked, turning to the dead weight shackled to her arm.

Gina’s jaw dropped in shock. “What!? Why!?”

“Because if we have to climb that thing lugging you behind us, Dani’s going to get eliminated,” Carly pointed out. “We can move faster without you, simple as that.”

“Plus there’s only Ella left,” Marley pointed out. “It shouldn’t be that difficult to take her down. So… we don’t really need you anymore.”

“I thought you were supposed to be the nice one!?” Gina exclaimed.

Dani rolled her eyes and laughed. “Come on, guys, I’m just messing around here. “I’m not actually going to eliminate Gina, I just wanted to see her sweat a bit, that’s all.

Gina sighed in relief. “Oh, thank you Dani, you’re the best! Thank you so much, I love you, I-”

“Okay, you’re laying it on a little thick here,” Dani scowled. “Stop being so annoying.”

“Right, shutting up,” Gina said, saluting. “Anyway, you’re right about one thing, Carly, we’ve gotta pick up the pace! We need to get to the middle of the battlefield, who knows when the boundary will start shrinking and eliminate us?”

None of them wanted to find out. They readjusted their course, and headed for the large towering spire of rock sticking out of the island like a big eyesore.

It was quick going. They weren’t actually that far away. And as the four of them got closer and closer, their guard was raised. After all, they didn’t know where Ella was.

She could attack them at any time, and they knew she was armed now. That could make a big difference here.

The path up towards the towering mound of rock started to steepen. As the girls emerged from the forest and into the hilly clearing, they realized why. The big chunk of stone wasn’t actually that tall. Its flat plateau was barely two stories off the ground. But the ground itself had been raised up, on a large, steep hill.

Dani squinted. “What is that?” She asked, pointing to the base of the steep rocky outcropping.

Gina shielded her eyes to get a closer look. “What, you mean that white stuff around the rock? I think… it’s a moat.”

“That’s a moat alright,” Marley said grimly. If anyone would know, she would.

Dakota had a pretty cute sense of humor. The pillar of stone was surrounded by a massive river of what was very obviously concentrated aphrodisiac. A single narrow path broke over it, winding steeply up the spire towards the top.

“Let me guess,” Dani scoffed. “We fall in there, we cum immediately.”

“I think that’s a safe bet,” Carly agreed. “So we just don’t fall in there.”

“Maybe we should dump Ella in,” Gina suggested. “Couldn’t hurt! And she could use a good time!” She elbowed Dani in the side. “What about you, Dani? Bring your swimsuit?”

Marley and Carly both giggled.

“We need to be careful,” Carly warned. “Ella could already be here for all we know, hiding and waiting to surprise us. We need to keep our eyes open!”

Marley nodded in agreement.

Dani scanned the steep hill as they hiked closer towards the center of the battlefield, but they couldn’t make out any sign of the last of the four finalists.

Until they were standing almost in the shadow of the tall pillar, and that’s when she spotted movement!

“Up there!” Dani gasped, pointing up at the top of the escarpment. “She’s on the plateau!”

That she was. The elusive latina sat on the ledge of the rocky cliff, her legs hanging over the side. She wore a wild grin on her face, her eyes shining with menace that could be seen even from here.

“That’s not Ella,” Carly realized.

Marley figured it out at almost exactly the same time. “It’s Cinder!”

“Welcome!” Cinder called down from above, licking her lips. “I’m so glad you made it! I hauled this all the way up here, I would hate to have you all be eliminated without the chance to test it out!”

She held up a remote control, and pressed a button.

“THOOM!” A small explosion echoed from atop the spire, and the girls’ eyes shot up as they saw something fly into the sky. Moments later, it came crashing down upon them.

“SPLAAAAAAAATTT!”

Something struck down in the center of the girls, and promptly exploded. Chunks of white flew in every direction, and Dani felt the sticky substance plastered across her face. Her clothes were already soaked, but they somehow got even worse off.

“Yaaagh!”

“Urrggh!”

Dani couldn’t see through the white liquid, but she could hear Carly and Marley moaning from somewhere to her left. Gina’s hot pants weren’t helping either.

Wiping frantically at her eyes, the tomboy stumbled back, stunned and heart racing as her arousal spiked.

“Carly! Marley! Are you guys alright!?” She shouted frantically.

“I’m fine, thanks for asking,” Gina muttered from beside her. The two girls collided and rolled down the hill.

More explosions came from the plateau. Followed by more splats.

“A mortar?!” Dawn was apoplectic. “YOU GAVE HER A MORTAR?!”

“I don’t see why you need to shout at me,” Dakota sniffed, crossing her arms indignantly over her chest. “It’s just as viable of a weapon as anything else I provided to work with.”

“That’s just crazy… I can’t believe you hid something like that.” Kim shook her head in disbelief. “Talk about one-sided!”

Augmented Synthetic Humanoid Assassin disagreed. She nodded cheerfully, enjoying the show.

“It’s not fair!” Rose pouted. “I’m the one who found it. I didn’t even get to use it before Cinder betrayed me!”

Nick frowned. “It’s a pretty ridiculous weapon,” he admitted. At the same time, he couldn’t help but be a little happy at how far Ella and Cinder had gotten in this challenge. They could really use some VP, being at the bottom like that. He was trying not to take sides, even if he knew that Dakota was being pretty unreasonable.

“Hahh… fuck… Marley…” Carly stumbled forward, wiping at her eyes. Her body was heating up like crazy. “This is ridiculous… she’s launching mortars at us now?!”

Carly could really use her slimy sister to shield her from the explosions. They needed to get out of here! Maybe if they climbed up the mountain, then they could…

Another mortar fired.

Carly had just enough time to see her sister orgasming on the ground in front of her as the aphrodisiac shell landed at her feet.

A wave of goop slammed into her as she practically drowned in orgasms.

THE FALLEN

CARLY GRANGER

“Carly…” Dani looked mournfully on as her girlfriend disappeared into the explosion of white. This was completely ridiculous!

“Dang… she took Carly out just like that,” Gina said, shaking her head.

Dani turned to look at Gina and scowled. “And yet somehow, you made it out just fine,” she said, rolling her eyes.

“I got some on me!” Gina defended, gesturing to her stained clothes. “I guess we’re just better at handling that stuff than your girlfriend is.”

Dani didn’t bother arguing. They had more important issues to deal with right now.

“We need to get up that mountain somehow,” she said, gesturing to the top of the plateau. “But if we try and walk, Ella’s going to drop mortar shells on us!”

“I think that’s Cinder, actually,” Gina piped up.

“Whatever, Cinder, Ella, right now it doesn’t matter!” Dani spat. “What matters is that we’ve got to get there as fast as possible, and I can’t do that with you chained to my wrist like this!”

She was seriously tempted to just finish Gina off right now. But as much as she hated to admit it, she might need the other girl. With Gina, it was two against one. Could she take down Cinder without Gina to serve as a human shiel- err, without Gina’s support?

“At least I can hold onto my weapon,” Gina pointed out. Dani had dropped her gun when the shelling started. If she went to go pick it up, she’d probably get another mortar dropped on her head.

Another reason why she might need to keep the punk girl around.

“You take it,” Gina said, handing the gun over happily to Dani. “You’re a better shot than I am, anyway!”

“Right now, we’re probably just outside of that thing’s range,” Dani said. “And judging by how long it takes one of those to fall before it gets fired, um… uh…”

Math. She fucking hated math. If Dawn were here, she could probably calculate just how fast Dani would need to run to get out of the line of fire when Cinder aimed.

But Dawn wasn’t here, and Dani didn’t like thinking that hard.

“Whatever! We’re just gonna **** our way through!” She decided.

“Eh? What do you- HEY!”

Gina scrambled and thrashed as Dani scooped her up over her shoulder, hauling the girl up like a sack of potatoes. With Dani’s enhanced strength, she barely even noticed it. She charged head-on into the fray, as Cinder loaded up shells to fire down on her.

How many of those things did she have?! It was like the mortar was bottomless.

“At least you could princess carry me!” Gina complained as Dani ran as fast as she could. Luckily, the tomboy’s instincts were correct. Even with Gina, at her maximum speed, she could still get out of range before Cinder’s mortars exploded.

“Rrrrgh! Hija de puta,” Cinder muttered under her breath. She tried to refocus her aim, but it was pointless. Dani had already started the steep climb up the side of the mountain, over the sea of aphrodisiacs and towards the plateau itself.

She was too close for the mortar to be aimed properly. Cinder would have to take her down through more conventional means.

“Well, that works just fine with me,” she grumbled, setting down the remote and picking up her rifle. There had been plenty of ammo in the box the mortar had been in, she could shoot both of them down, no problem!

Dani reached the top of the plateau and was immediately greeted by a bullet in the side.

“Unwgh!” She could feel the pleasure spike shoot through her. All the recovery she’d gotten from that vial of Gina’s had gone to waste, burned away on those mortars. Curse her stupid, curvy body that was such a great target! Not that her original body would have been any harder to hit…

“Okay, time to make yourself useful!” Dani flung Gina ahead of her and charged towards Cinder like a bull, using the punk girl as a sponge for the rifle bullets.

“Are you crazy!? DANI!” Gina wailed.

In spite of Gina’s fearful outbursts, no bullets came. Cinder was so shocked by the flagrant disrespect for Dani’s teammate that her brain stopped working for a second. I thought I was supposed to be the remorseless killer?! Poor girl!

Somewhere in the ball of anger and rage Cinder called a heart, even she could feel sympathy for Gina’s plight.

“ZIP!”

…For all of two seconds. Cinder may have been momentarily shaken, but she quickly recovered, taking aim with her rifle and opening fire. The way she saw it, if she took out Gina, then Dani would lose her shield, and fall next.

It made sense in her crazed, adrenaline-fueled brain.

“ZIP!”

But Cinder wasn’t the only one armed. With Gina in one hand and a gun in the other, Dani started shooting wildly at Cinder, forcing her back. The enraged latina ducked behind the tall mortar stand to shield herself, and nearly tripped over one of the shells.

Then a lightbulb went off in her head.

Oh. That could work.

A wicked grin stretched across Cinder’s face as she grabbed one of the shells, and flung it at Dani’s feet.

Gina spotted it first. Her eyes widened. “Dani! Watch-!”

That was all she could get out before the shell burst open, covering the rocky plateau with slick aphrodisiac. With a cry, Dani stumbled and nearly lost her balance. She slammed into the mortar and saw stars, letting Gina go in the process.

“Now I’ve got you!” Cinder roared, leaping out from behind the mortar while frothing at the mouth, her knife vibrating. She aimed at the prone tomboy.

“Haha! Nope! Yoink!” Gina grabbed the handcuff chain and flung out her arm, drawing it taut across Cinder’s ankle. With a cry, the enraged girl tripped herself, landing right on top of Dani.

“Oof!” The air was knocked out of Dani’s lungs, but at the same time she could distantly process that Cinder was right on top of her. With a painful groan she summoned all the strength in her body, turned, pushed, and shoved Cinder right off the ledge.

She didn’t even realize she had done it until it was too late to take it back. And that’s when she realized that she was slipping too, due to the slickened ground.

Very quickly Dani noticed that there was nothing below her but a sea of white.

“Yagh!” Dani cried, reaching up with her arm, but the ledge passed just out of reach.

“TWANG!”

A wrenching pain shot through Dani’s shoulder, and her descent was sharply stopped. Somewhere below, she heard a moaning cry, accompanied by a loud “SPLASH!”

As the tomboy’s head spun, she vaguely processed the image of Cinder’s face flashing across the sky beside her.

THE FALLEN

CINDER MARQUEZ

“YEAAAAAGH!” Cinder reappeared on the stage, positively drenched in aphrodisiac. Her body was shaking and her eyes rolled back into her skull as orgasm after orgasm, a sensation almost completely foreign to her, continued to **** her slender frame.

No one knew what to say or how to react, they just stared at her with baited breath. And then, after what felt like an eternity but was only a few moments, the latina returned to whatever constituted sanity.

Cinder blinked, processing everything.

Then she screamed again.

But those screams went unheard by the two girls still in the game.

“Dani, are you okay? Are you breathing?” Gina called down. Her arm was dangling over the ledge, attached to Dani by a handcuff that refused to break.

“Gina? Is… is Cinder okay!?” Dani wailed. “I can’t see! She didn’t hit the ground, did she?!” She cried in a panic.

“Relax, Cinder is fine, which is more than could be said about my elbow socket,” Gina groaned. “Why do I always end up with someone dangling from my arm?!”

“Hah… just… just pull me up already,” Dani panted, wiping her forehead. She was completely exhausted. “These cliffs are too steep, I can’t climb.”

“…”

“Gina?”

“…Yeah… about that…”

Gina looked down at Dani with a playful grin on her flushed face. Dani’s eyes widened as she realized what that look meant.

“Hey! What are you doing!? Gina!”

“Yeah, see… it’s just the two of us now, right? And you’re REALLY heavy. I don’t want to go to all the trouble of pulling you up, you know?” Gina’s eyes twinkled with amusement. “Plus, the last time I saved someone in this position she became the host and then turned somebody into sand, so like… it’s probably better if I don’t do that a second time, right?”

“You… you little troll!” Dani fumed. The smart thing would have been to start leveling compliments and try to make Gina cum now that it was just the two of them left, but Dani was too exhausted to be thinking like that right now.

“…Also, uh… you know how I said I can’t get you out of those?” Gina called down to her. She grabbed a handful of the necklaces dangling under her shirt, and started digging through them. She pulled one out, showing it to Dani.

It was a shiny key.

Dani needed way more time than she was proud of to process what she was looking at. Fortunately, Gina was patient enough to wait until she put the pieces together.

“…YOU HAD THE KEY THIS ENTIRE TIME?!”

“Yup! Nick gave it to me after our first night experimenting with the transformation, because he didn’t want to be responsible in case something happened. I mean, it shows a fundamental lack of faith in my ability to not end up accidentally handcuffed to my bed, but still, isn’t he sweet? So yeah, I could have gotten us out, but it was so much more fun this way!” Gina giggled. She reached down and started fumbling with Dani’s cuff, trying to insert the key into the hole while Dani frantically tried to slap her hand away.

“Gina you bitch! Come on! I trus-!” Dani had been about to say she trusted the other girl, but no, she never really had, had she?

“Let’s call it even for that little thing about you using me as a human shield, ‘kay? No hard feelings!” Gina chirped.

*CLICK*

All the **** keeping Dani suspended disappeared, and in an instant she plummeted into the aphrodisiac below.

THE FALLEN

DANIELLE MONTENUE

When Dani landed in the moat, two people were transported onto the stage. But only one of them was soaked through to her shirt.

Dani, orgasms aside, was clearly not happy about the situation, and she cast a venomous glare at Gina, who was standing right next to her and smiling up a storm.

“…You’re a little gremlin, you know that?” Dani sighed, not even having the energy to be mad. All things considered, Gina had actually gotten through that pretty cleanly. She had to begrudgingly respect that.

Gina beamed back at her and poked Dani on the nose. “Boop!”
