Phase 1: Mary Marvel and Zatanna (also Side-Plot 2)

Lex Luthor's wish caused Ovyah's skin to ripple polychromatically again, which was echoed by a similar ripple over Mary and Zatanna -- tingles flowing over and through them both.

"Our bodies are going to react," Zatanna sent over the new telepathic link. "The wish means we're going to enjoy this regardless of whether we would enjoy it. You have to remember that before it starts."

"I want to enjoy it," Mary sent back. "I have no ability to stop it. I refuse to let this be traumatic. I refuse."

"I'm not sure you have a choice," Zatanna sent. "I'll be with you every second, but--"

"Zatanna? You are experienced in ways I'm not. You understand so much more than I do about this. And you can have a remove and a discipline I can only envy as this happens." Mary turned, her eyes finding Zatanna's across the room. "But I am Mary Marvel, the World's Mightiest Mortal! I have the Courage of Achilles and the Stamina of Atlas, the Wisdom of Solomon and the Power of Zeus, and I choose whether or not I will be traumatized by this!" A hint of a smile touched Mary's lips. "Admittedly, focusing on you will help."

Zatanna nodded. The world seemed to be moving almost in slow motion -- an echo of Mary's Speed of Mercury, perhaps. She held Mary's gaze. "Then focus on me. We'll be here together. And no matter how you feel afterward? I will be here for you, no strings attached."

The tip of Lex's cock grazed the outer folds of Ovyah's labia -- the echo of the touch electric to both Mary and Zatanna, who gasped almost in unison. The world seemed to speed back up to normal. It was almost like watching a fisheye lens pull back to normal aspect. Zatanna and Mary hadn't realized it was happening--

Lex shifted, the head of his cock parting Ovyah's labia. He teased it over her engorged clit, the sensations running through the captives. Mary's hips shifted side to side and her eyes half-closed, while Zatanna began to breathe in and out in a slow, rhythmic manner...

Lex thrust forward, stabbing Ovyah, Mary, and Zatanna in one stroke, filling all three entirely. There was a rush of pleasure from Zatanna and Ovyah, which almost overwhelmed the rush of pain from Mary. Almost. That said, Ovyah and Zatanna both then reacted to the pain's echoes while Lex held himself in deep.

"...did... he... go out of his way to make that hurt as much as possible?" Mary sent, eyes closed as she shivered.

"Yeah," Zatanna sent back. Her inner muscles were contracting and relaxing, creating a slow rhythm. "Yeah, he w-went out of his way to hurt you."

"God, is he just made of ego? What kind of--"

The three shivered again as Lex pulled back and thrust forward. Ovyah moaned, her pleasure feeding back into the other two, the wish beginning to flood them both with endorphins as Lex invaded and took the three. He began moving rhythmically, reaching over to squeeze Ovyah's breast, the imprint of his hand visible for a moment on Mary and Zatanna's breasts as well...

"...oh... I... what... why are my hips..." Mary sent. Her hips were in fact moving rhythmically now, arching as though she were pushing back against Lex.

"The wish... the for--ohhhh--the **** pleasure." Zatanna's eyes were half-closed now, her own hips shifting. Lex moaned softly, clearly feeling both their movements to some degree even as Ovyah moved in time with him on her own. "...and let's face it... y-you have the Wisdom of Solomon. A thousand wives? Song of Solomon..."

"Are you s-seriously going to bring that up now?" Mary shivered, turning her head to look at Zatanna, her body now moving in a kind of dance to anyone who didn't realize what was happening to her, her labia opening and shifting in time with the unseen cock.

"...all I'm saying is you've been granted the Divine Wisdom of the one Old T-Testament--oh!--Testament guy defined as d-down to fuuuUUUCK!" Zatanna felt a wave of pleasure flood her body, but kept moving in her own rhythm. Lex's breathing was almost in sync with her's now, and she kept moving, her inner muscles massaging the phantom dick inside her...

"That's so not true..." Mary managed to send, her own breath coming in gulps and short bursts now. "...D-David... Sampson, L-Leah, Seth and Anna... a-all of Sodom... there's so much sex in--" Mary silently shrieked as a sudden flood rushed through her, like heat from her pelvis radiating out. "...oh God it's happening..."

"Look at me!" Zatanna sent, eyes burning as she stared back at Mary. "Look at me right now, Mary! D-do it!" Zatanna's body was moving like a dancer's, her breasts swinging, her hips rocking, her inner muscles continuing a relentless massage as she played off Lex's cock.

Mary's eyes flew open, locking with Zatanna's. "...oh God... ahGod... AHGAHD... Z-Zee--"

"Share this with me!" Zatanna sent back, almost hissing telepathically. "Faster... don't fight it... let i... let it happen..."

Mary **** herself to stay looking into Zatanna's eyes as her body twitched and her nerves seemed to light up from within. She had been given orgasm after orgasm by Lex's continual draining, but this was different... this was coming from the oldest source, man and woman, cock in cunt, and she had never felt anything like it... she felt her features twist into an almost rictus grin as the climax built up and poured out of her, flooding into Zatanna and Ovyah...

Ovyah shrieked as Mary's orgasm triggered her own, shuddering and thrusting hard up at Lex, whose own eyes were closed now. Clearly he was focusing on his own pleasure, but feeling the panoply of movements and squeezes on his cock was driving their captor nigh-insane with his own pleasure. His hips began to move faster, almost uncontrollably--

Zatanna clamped her vaginal muscles, locking the cock in her for a long moment, Ovyah's inner muscles reflecting the move, Mary feeling the sudden clench and having a small aftershock orgasm....

Zatanna released, and Lex began moving again, a slight smile on his face. "You love this," he hissed. "You've been waiting for this..."

"You have no idea," Zatanna sent, her mental voice a moan as she focused, her hips moving almost in a figure eight now. "You have no idea you bastard... M-Mary, stay with me..."

"I'm here, Zee," Mary sent back, her mental voice 'breathless.' "W-what are you doing--"

"Just stay w-with me. I need you. I need you to trust me..."

"...I do..." Mary shuddered, but her hips began to echo the movements she felt from Zatanna, her own inner muscles shifting into a similar pattern....

"Oh God yes!" Zatanna sent back. "Oh God I couldn't hope you'd pick this up... that's it... just fuh...follow my lead... and if you come, come... I h-have to hold my own orgasm back..."

Mary didn't argue, she just let her body feel Zatanna's, moving more in unison now. The doubled motion reflected in Ovyah's own movements, which were writhing and pushing up at Lex, who was unconsciously playing off their actions, responding in exactly the right ways...

Mary shuddered as another small climax hit her. "...h-how long..."

"We're almost... almost r-ready... yes... yes... move, Mary! Move!" Zatanna began to buck into the air, her muscles gripping and riding....

Mary shrieked soundlessly again, but her own hips did the same. Ovyah reflected it as before... the three now moving in time...

Lex's eyes were closed, his movement piston-regular as he felt sensations he'd never felt before. His own voice was ragged as the three women drove him higher... closer... backing off then approaching... so close... so--

Zatanna shuddered, and suddenly twitched, her orgasm flooding the three like a tidal wave, her mouth twisting in a silent scream that Mary heard in her own head--

Mary spasmed, Zatanna's orgasm so much more refined, so intense that it set a separate one off inside the 19 year old, driving her to heights she couldn't imagine--

Ovyah screamed audibly, her own orgasm a heterodyned magnification of both of their orgasms, which flooded back into the captives and then crashed back into her like a feedback loop--

And Lex... Lex screamed too as his own orgasm flooded almost uncontrollably out of his body, the warmth flooding into Ovyah, through her and then into Mary and Zatanna alike, all four suddenly feeling almost lighter than air....

And then a last wave of pleasure hit them all, before a wave of fatigue, Mary and Zatanna feeling the cum hitting deep inside them... and... shifting...

Zatanna opened her eyes. "...what in the..."

Lex opened his eyes too, and looked at the two captive women. "...I see you're experiencing the best part," he almost crooned. "I know you probably expected my seed to drip out of you, but the wish isn't about to let that happen. Not yet... no... feel the awareness grow as you sense my sperm flowing through your cervices... the wish will make sure you sense it moving inexorably towards your waiting eggs... it could take days normally, and might not even happen... that's the last thing we'd want, right?" He chuckled. "Feel it approaching? Feel it surrounding? Feel it engulfing your eggs? Any moment now... you'll experience the miracle about to happen..."

"...oh that sick b-bastard," Zatanna sent. "He's literally accelerating the conception and making us ecks... experience it as... as..."

Mary and Zatanna spasmed again, another orgasm crashing through them both as they felt the sperm penetrate and unify, conception triggering the pleasure through them...

Both women then fell limp, hanging in their restraints as waves of fatigue hit them both.

"Congratulations," Lex almost purred, pulling out of the near **** Ovyah. "They're both girls. I wish my cock were clean and I were completely restored from what just happened." He smiled as Ovyah's power tingled over him, and he adjusted clothing. "I wish there were no evidence of sex on my body or my clothing, but that I instead looked completely fresh." His clothing rippled, cleaning itself. He then walked around Ovyah, who was still hanging in the air. "You can get down now," he snapped to her.

Ovyah dropped to the floor with a thud. She didn't otherwise move.

Lex walked up onto the dais, between the two women. "Ah," he said. "Now the remaining sperm is dripping down and out of you. I should take a picture. Oh wait! You're being filmed. How nice."

Both Mary and Zatanna shifted, undisguised hatred on their faces.

"Now. Normally, we'd move onto phase two, causing you to gestate those children and bear them within a few minutes, with all the bonding and hormonal flux of a nine month pregnancy. Something for you both to look forward to. However, since we're not yet ready for Project: Simulacra to begin, I don't want to proceed just yet. Fortunately, those fetuses are in the best possible incubators right now. Enjoy the warm glow of being in the family way." He chuckled again. "Of course, there's the question of making sure they develop in the best possible environment. So guess what? I'm not going to drain you two today."

He looked at them both, one at a time. "Still. Leaving you at your full potential is dangerous. Let's make sure that danger is mitigated, shall we?" He smiled again. "Ovyah? I wish that if either Mary Marvel or Zatanna Zatara escape the racks they're held in while they're pregnant, the genitalia of all their male loved ones will instantly rot and fall away irrevocably."

"...granted," Ovyah said, pushing herself back to her knees.

"You both understand, I trust?" Lex said, looking at Zatanna and then Mary. "Relatives, crushes, young loves? Whatever. Unless you want them to suffer, you'll just accept the gift of strength for what it is."

He turned. "We'll want to accelerate Project: Simulacra," he said. "I'll want to have... mm... another three children undergo Phase 1 and Phase 2 before I put you two through Phase 2. A group of five as the inaugural class of Phase 3 sounds about right." He walked down off the dais and headed for the door. "Come along, Ovyah. And make yourself presentable."

Ovyah hopped up, once again in her green and black minidress and fully human appearance, looking none the worse for wear. "Coming, Mister Luthor."

"I believe you already did that," Lex said, sounding far more chipper than he arrived. Ovyah laughed, the sound being cut off as the door shut behind them.

"...glad to see **** us made Lex feel better," Zatanna sent, bitterness in her mental voice.

"Doctor Sivana's the sickest human being I've ever met," Mary sent back, quietly. "But I don't believe he'd ever do that to anyone. Not even me, and he hates me. He might harvest an egg to experiment on, but he'd never..."

"Mary? How... how are you holding up?"

Mary didn't answer right away.

"Mary?"

"I have the Stamina of Atlas, the Wisdom of Solomon, and the Courage of Achilles," Mary sent back, softly. "I'm fine."

"You don't have to be strong with me."

"I have to be stronger for you," she sent back. "Until we're out of this once and for all."

Zatanna paused, then nodded.

"So what did you do? And was I able to help?"

"You helped so much. I couldn't have hoped for that." Zatanna smiled a slightly vindictive smile. "I've been waiting for Lex to **** me. Maybe I can't use somatic or mnemonic incantation magic right now, but I'm a master tantric mage, and he just gave me a chance to cast a pretty intense spell. Your help boosted that a lot."

"I thought that's what you were doing. But... we're still captives and we're still pregnant."

"Ovyah can trump anything I cast with Tantra," Zatanna sent back. "Innately, because it's all sex-based. So I couldn't tip our hand. I didn't dare send a call for help or free us. I had to play a longer game."

"...what game? What did the spell do?"

Zatanna's smile turned wicked. "What else? It added a few... off spec additions to Project: Simulacra."

Mary blinked, and a small, honest smile of her own slipped over her face. "...God I'm glad you were here."

"I'm glad you were here. And that we have this connection, now."

Mary considered. "The experience is over. Why are we still able to communicate like this?"

"Because of the method Ovyah used to connect you two."

Mary and Zatanna shifted, tensing. This was a new voice--

There was an image resolving in front of them... a telepathic image of... a head? A woman's head, with long hair... nude body...

"What do you mean?" Zatanna sent.

"Lex never learns." The figure grew clear, and sharp, even though it was just in their mind's eye. A woman, from behind. "That's what I mean."

No. She wasn't a woman. She was a mermaid.

"...who are you?" Mary sent, a slight hint of wonder in her voice.

The mermaid turned. "My name is Lori Lemaris," she sent back to Zatanna and Mary. "I just helped you two. And now, I'm going to need your help. And maybe, just maybe, we can save the world in the process."
