Day 9

When you woke up it was still nighttime. You looked around in a sleep induces daze as you looked to see if anybody was around before remembering you were alone. Damm you missed Emma. She’s been busy as well since you arrived here every single person you caught she had to care of, feed them, wash them, calm them, keep them all friendly and making them easier to convince if they hadn’t yet submitted. Once this was all over you had to reward her. But enough about that, you just wake up in the middle of the night which meant your sleeping schedule was disturbed, a second and more pressing problem: you were running out of rope. All you had left was a single lasso and the 5 pieces of rope that you previously used as leashes for the girls. Normally you could get more at the hotel everyday but that wasn’t an option. Perhaps the store had something to offer?

These unlocks are mighty convenient but its also a bit creepy how they always know what you’re doing. Still you aren’t the type of person to look a gifted horse in the mounth, especially not with a free delivery. You order a refresh kit to your camp leaving you with 11 points.

You were still really curious about the metal men, you expected them to be some sort of robot servant which would be kind of useless and make them a waste of points. But on the other hand, everything so far had indicated that more expensive items were more usefull. But what if they were like the night vision goggles where they only unlocked something but you then had to pay more to actually use them. Wait a minute... night vision goggles, you almost forgot about those.

Ultimatly you didn’t want to risk them being useless so you went for the option guaranteed to net you some captures: night goggless. Leaving you with 9 points. So close to 10 you thought. Now what to buy with the remaining 9. You could buy more traps and place them under the cover of darkness, the disadvantage was that you didn’t know any good spots for them. You were convinced they would still work but it would surely be less effective then before. And if you did go for traps, would you go for quantity or quality? Probably quality considering more traps meant more traveling to empty them, unless you put them close together but that would basically lower you chances to capture something significantly less.

Ooor you could buy the “bow”, would it be like a bow and arrow? I mean a bow and arrow would certainly be usefull, you would finally gain the ability to catch from afar, mayby you could even take out a group before they noticed you from the bushes. And solo prey would have absolutly 0 chance unless you betray yourself or miss you shot. Yeah that would be the biggest issue, accuracy. You didn’t practice much with the bow. You could hit about 2 thirds of your shots at 50 meters on a target. But of course you would be aiming at moving targets for the most part, but those targets would be bigger than your practice target.

After a lot of back and forth you decided to order the bow, the improved range would make capturing prey much easier which seemed like a good enough benefit to eventually aquire the metal men which at this point was the main goal.

After a little bit of waiting you hear a barely audible buzzing noise above you, and when you looked up you saw a black drone coming down, you wouldn’t be able to see it at all if it wasn’t for the moonlight reflecing on its shiny surface. It dropped off 3 packages.

The first box contained the night goggles, they were made of a single bend plate with 2 circles extending slightly outwards. At the back of the plate was a strap. You put the plate on your eyes and pulled the strap behind your head, it felt suprisingly comfortable but would probably get sweaty if you wore it for an extended period of time due to it being so tight. You still couldn’t see anything however everything was as black as it was before. Just as you began to think you got robbed you found a teeny tiny button in the strap, you pressed it and just like that you saw the forest again. It was almost like looking during daytime except with a green filter applied to everything. You clicked the button again and to turn it off but where instead suprised to see your own arm glowing yellow, so not only did it have night vision but it also had thermal vision, this would come very handy indeed. After a third click of the button it was night again. You went back to normal night vision and opened the second box.

Inside of it was a recurve bow sized at around 70 centimeters. It was made out of some lightweight alloy and painted black. You gave it a test and altough it took a decent amount of effort to pull back you didn’t consider it impossible to do while running or kneeling but it wouldn’t be something you could keep up for long, and if you needed to wrestle them to the ground afterwards your arms would probably be to tired for it.

Finally you opened the last box, this one would contain the arrows. You opened the package to find a quiver with 20 arrows in it, when you took one out to inspect it you found that instead of the traditional arrow head you had a sort of black bulb at the top. When you squeezed it with your hand it felt like rubber. It also contained a letter that said not to fire at people’s faces at a distance of 5 meters or less and to not eat the product, you chuckled to yourself imagining some idiot chomping down on some mysterious bulb arrows before taking out an arrow and placing it on the arrow rest, you aimed at a random tree and released the arrow.

It felt good to fire and the arrow had a satisfying whistle as it flew. The arrow landed slightly below where you aimed (probably due to the heavier tip) Which you would need to compensate for when the time arrives. More importantly however is the effect the arrow had on the tree, the arrow shaft was nowhere to be found but the bulb had exploded upon impact leaving a black rubbery like goo in a radius around the point of impact. You tried to peel it off with but until you grabbed a pocket knife you couldn’t even get a nail under it. Eventually you peeled it off and to your relief the tree didn’t seem damaged meaning it was probably safe to shoot at prey.

Once you collected everything you threw the boxes into the forest (they were biodegradable) put on the night vision goggles on their thermal cam mode and started walking in the vague direction of your camp with the intention of capturing everything in your path and unlocking the metal men.

You didn’t expect to find to much prey in the middle of the night, most of them would be sleeping around now. However if you were serious about avoiding capture for as long as possible then adapting a nocturnal sleeping pattern would be greatly beneficial.

After walking for a short distance you noticed a bright red in your peripheral vision, the night vision goggles were paying off already. You slowly snuck closer until you were in comfortable firing range, it didn’t take long as you didn’t have to worry as much about making sound from this distance. You switched back to normal night vision to look at your prey a bit better, she was completly naked except for black panties, she has fairly big breasts and thick thighs. Her face was kind of pointy with brown hair. She was strolling fairly casually through the forest only looking side to side occasionally, you simply stalked her until she stood still to grab some sort of fruit out of a tree. You took a bulb arrow, put it in the bow and pulled it back. You calmed your breathing, took a carefull aim and released. The arrow flew away with a satisfying whistle causing your prey to turn her head towards you before you could hear a *squish* as the bulb made impact with her lower back. Much to your dismay however it didn’t immediatly incapacitate her instead she just grunted and she took off in a sprint, you went after her. After only a short sprint however she fell forward onto the ground and Altough she did stand back up (with more effort than you would expect) she wasn’t running Anymore. As you got closer you understood why: not only was the black goo on her lower back but it was also on her thighs locking her upper legs together and it was slowly creeping downwards towards her feet. At the same time it was also creeping up and forward: her panties where already hidden behind the black goo as well as some of her stomach. She tried clawing at it with her hands but as they touched it they seemed to stick to her body with the goo acting as glue, even worse for her the good was now also creeping up her arms. It was at this point she started to panic but it was to late to save herself, you could jump out and catch her at any moment. However you decided to stay and watch her struggle.

With her arms stuck to her side she reminded you a bit of a penguin and she uselessly wiggled side to side as the goo slowly crept upwards slowly covering her tummy. Meanwhile her legs were now entirely covered aside from her feet, she started jumping up and down resulting in some very tiny drops of goo falling to the floor (her greatest accomplishment in fighting off the creeping goo), however it also resulted in a nice spectacle as her boobs bounced up and down wildly. Just as the goo touched the underside of her boob however she slowed down her jumping, as the goo now covered her heels before finally slowing down. Her torso however still had a long way to go though and you could see the horror on her face as she saw the goo coming up from under her boobs and slowly hid them from view. As it crept up her neck she pointed her chin upwards and shook her head. You started walking towards her as you weren’t sure if the goop would stop and allow her to breathe. Luckily you saw it slow down to a crawl around her neck. As it reached her mounth she at first kept it closed tight but as it creeped inward she Tried to scream, it was muffled before it left her mounth as the goo covered her mounth. At least the goo finally settled down. You watched her standing there hopelessly wiggeling, not even able to jump anymore due to her feet being suctioned together and her arms to her sides.

It was then that you finally came out of the woods. As she saw you she seemingly tried to hop away only resulting in her falling onto the floor. You walked at a normal pace towards her knowing there was nothing she could do. She started wiggeling and mmmmmphing as best she could but ultimatly all she could do was to try and worm away, which of course happened at a snails pace. As you reached her you noticed that the black goo had hardened and become a slightly lighter colour, not only that but it now highlighted the figure of your capture very nicely. It wasn’t perfectly skintight but clearly very tight. As you were observing her she had wormed almost a meter away from you, you grabbed her legs and pulled her closer to you, suddey being dragged backwards towards her captor resulted in a long muffled scream. You flipped her on her back and sat on her pelvis to prevent her worming any further. She was wiggeling beneath you still. You grabbed one of her boobs and fondled it softly, the hardened goo felt suprisingly soft and altough it was firm and kept her boob mostly in place, you gave it a light slap and altough reduced her boob still jiggled nicely. Small side effect of your testing, she was now squirming even more and was trying to throw you off.

You know you can’t escape right?

Mmmph

Oke, how about this you said with a grin, im going to give you a chance.

Hmmmph?

She stopped her squirming for a second and seemed to listen

Im going to offer you a wager, nod if you accept and shake your head if you dont and prepare for the consequences.

I’m going to stand up and give you a 5 minute headstart. In these 5 minutes I won’t touch you at all. After that im coming to grab you, if I am for whatever reason not touching you with 2 hands by the end of lets say 7 minutes ill not only untie you but give you all the gear im currently carrying, I won’t even be able to chase after you.

Hmhhhph! (She sounded hopefull here)

BUT you continued: if I am touching you with 2 hands, You will willingly submit yourself to me.

You got an angry hmphh back.

If you accept the wager then nod, if you don’t then shake your head. Ill just find a different and less... pleasant way to make you submit. So make your choice.

She instantly nodded. She must or extremely dumb, wanting to submit herself or very **** because this wager wasn’t in her favor at all.

You grabbed your foldaphone and showed the timer to her. “When this phone beeps the game starts, when it beeps twice I am coming for you, once it plays its tune the game is over and the winner is decided”.

You then stood up and leaned against a tree, put your phone on max volume and played the first beep. You watched her with your arms crossed as she instantly began worming her way towards a big nearby tree. This took her a little under a minute. She then spent the next 2 minutes furiously rubbing her legs against the tree. It actually removed some of the hardened goo, but it was only a very tiny fraction and aside from some scratches on the material it didn’t come close to releasing her legs. You then yelled “Two minutes left!” You saw her look at you, she abandoned whatever plan she had as she started to stand up, she managed to sit up on her knees by pushing her face on the floor and using it as leverage to push her ass up and then falling backwards. However as soon as she tried to stand up she instantly fell back over, her feet just couldn’t hold her balance in this position. “1 minute left!” You yelled again. This time it seemed to be pure panic as she started moving away from you like a caterpillar, sitting up on her knees and then practically launching herself forward. She got about 8 meters when your foldaphone played 2 beeps.

You casually strode over to her and reached her in less than a minute. You grabbed her by the legs and dragged her back towards the tree where you put her down at their roots. You sat down with your legs in a V-shape and your back against the tree, you then took her shoulders in your hands and put her beteeen your legs. You then pulled her backwards towards you and casually held her like in that position. Your mother used to sit with you like this at school back when you were a toddler. For your target however it only exemplified how little chance she had as you could easily hold her back with 1 hand, if you crossed your legs there would be nothing she could do. She was still squirming heavily do and you frequently had to pull her back into your “loving” grasp as she constantly leaned forward. After sitting like that for a few minutes you wrapped 1 arm above her breasts and 1 below it totally immobilising even her squirming, a few seconds later a happy little tune played from your pocket. Your now **** finally seemed to realise she had no chance and relaxed in your grasp.

“I told you so didn’t I, but you just had to try it”

Mph mmmh hmmph was all you got as a response

If you promise not to scream ill remove your gag.

She gave a small nod.

Oke, sit still and don’t be scared. You took out your pocket knife and carefully made a tiny cut around her mounth from where you slowly peeled away the goo.

“You’re mean” she said whilst pouting

Is that the first thing you say after I allow you to speak?

i’m only as mean as I need to be.

You hit my boob!

“I had to test something” you retorted

And what could that be

I had to test the jiggle under that goo of yours

Gee well thanks mister that sure makes me feel better.

Yeah alright, how do I make it up to you?

“You can let me go” she innocently suggested

Ill gag you again.

She went back to pouting and it was silent for a couple seconds before she continued

Can you remove the mask then. I want to at least see who captured me.

You took of your night vision goggless and gave her a pleasant smile.

She looked up at your face intently for a few seconds before relaxing again “meh, could be worse”

“Im glad my looks don’t offend you princess” you said sarcastically. Now then, we had a wager and you lost so I must ask of you: do you submit?

You could feel her muscles become tense again, her breathing quickened and she started lightly squirming but no response came.

You could tell she was still conflicted, just because they came here to get captured doesn’t mean they will just go with the first person that captures them and considering her nocturnal habits it wasn’t hard to imagine that she would be critical of who she would go with. So you decided you needed to win her over, find out how she likes her hunters/masters; would it be loving and caring or demanding and dominating? You decided to just do what came naturally and change it up if the situation demanded it.

So as she was silently squirming in your grasp getting more and more uncomfortable you gave her a short reassuring squeeze and said “you don’t have to if you aren’t ready yet”.

She looked up at you and with a tiny voice asked “are you going to punish me?”

Is that what you you’re afraid of?

Y-yes

You pulled her into a sort of hug resting your head on her shoulder and said “i’m not going to hurt you”.

This seemed to finally calm her nerves as her breathing normalised, her muscles relaxed and she finally stopped trying to get loose from your grasp. You sat like that with her for a moment before she spoke again

So.... what are you going to do to me?

Well, im going to continue doing what I was doing by which I mean: hunting.

Am I not good enough for you? (She got her attitude back, its good to see she relaxed but you aren’t exactly happy with it either).

I don’t know yet if you are good enough for me so until I do I will increase my odds as much as possible.

And how are you going to move while taking me with you, I bet you didn’t think about that.

You looked down at your waist where you had some final pieces of rope: Hmmm I might have an idea.

You carefully put her down and stood up,

W-what are you doing? She said which you simply ignored.

You then took some rope and used it to wrap around her legs and torso making sure it was as tight as you could get it to the dismay of your unfortunate victim

Ow! Do you have to do it so tight? I already can’t move, you made that point very clear already.

You ignored her again and by now you could tell she was getting at least a little nervous again.

Once you were done you had circled her body 6 times, twice at the legs, once around her belly and once below and above her breasts and finally once around her shoulders. You then ran a rope through them all starting at her legs and ending at her shoulders, you then connected the 2 rope ends. You then repeated this motion again. The end result was a bit like a backpack but with ropes acting as straps.

After looking every rope over and tightening a few causing some protest you picked up your prisoner from the floor causing her to give a suprised yelp, you then with great effort managed to swing her around so that you were actually carrying her on your back. She now had her back touching your back and was held in place by the straps. It wasn’t exactly an easy solution and frequent brakes would be in order but you could now carry her around like a backpack. Its a good thing she was pretty small and light or this would have been straight up impossible.

After shifting her weight around a little to be more comfortable you: put on your night vision goggles (on thermal mode), picked up your bow, placed your quiver and headed out again. You moved slower then before and had to take a lot of breaks but it was better then needing to deposit her first. And once she stopped complaining about being carried “like a sack of potatoes” you were able to hold a whispered conversation with her. She seemed to be a pretty normal for this place. She didn’t have much previous experience with slavery but did have some experience with bondage and the likes. As for a job she worked an office job on an administrative planet which is part of what she hoped to escape by coming here. Her family for the most part lived in the digital space since their deaths a couple dozen years ago, she did have an older sister but they hadn’t spoken in years.

The conversation however was cut short as you spotted a figure with your thermal vision. She was lying in a tree roughly 300 meters ahead of you. Even you could barely spot her so your current prisoner had absolutly no clue why you suddenly stopped.

Hey why did you sto- mmmmhhphhh

You gagged her before she could betray your position and softly placed her on the floor. You then took an arrow and placed it on your bow before sneaking closer to your target. As you got closer you turned off thermal vision to take a closer look at your prey. She was of average height at roughly 170 centimeters and seemed (as was usually the case here) almost perfectly built and plump in all the right places, most notably where her breasts if Emma was a 5 then these were a 7 or mayby even an 8. She was wearing nothing aside from yellow panties but in spite of this you couldn’t quite see her nipples due to her long blonde hair covering them.

Once you got in range you took aim, pulled back the arrow, took a deep breath and let loose.

The arrow soared through the air and.. missed entirely flying past your target by mere centimeters. You expected her to wake up and immediatly sprint off never to be seen again contrary to this she woke up very slowly, she was making her way down the tree but it almost looked like a casual climb. In your panic at missing the first shot however all you could think of was launching a second arrow which you eventually did, however since you didn’t take the time to properly aim it you once again missed. Your target by now had reached the bottom and was running off.

Well not exactly run, it was more so a casual jog. Of course you ran after her in full sprint and to your suprise easily caught up to her which finally allowed you to realise the oddities in her behaviour, determined to not miss your next shot you ran as close as you could before firing again. After coming into a range where you could just as easily have thrown a lasso you placed an arrow on your bow, stopped, drew back the arrow, took a deep breath and followed your target for roughly 2 seconds to predict her movement, You let go of the arrow. It soared through the sky with the by now familliar whistle and.... *squish* you hit your prey right between her shoulder blades.

Despite the fact that her legs aren’t fused together yet she fell on the ground giving you plenty of time to close the distance, as you ran you started to get an idea of what was going on with her weird behaviour: she wants to get captured. The only question is: why was she pretending to avoid capture?

The answer revealed itself soon as you heard her say (with some very bad acting): oh no, I sure hope you aren’t going to do any hooooribleeee things to mmmmmph. She couldn’t finish her sentence due to the goop covering her mounth gagging her but you got the gist of it: she was another masochist. As you watched the goop struggle to contain her volumptious breasts you considerd what to do with her, (its not like she was going anywhere even with her legs still free).

The previous masochist you captured (the one currently residing in a closet with Alice) was intentionally disobeying in order to get punished, So if you wanted them to obey then you would need to “punish” them when they obey normally and deny or even ignore them when they disobey. Since a deprivation of both punishment and pleasure seemed to be the only things that they actually consider punishment. Perhaps a sprinkle of humiliation as well, just to be safe.

With a plan of approach figured out you turned your attention to your prey where you finally saw the last of her underboobs disappearing under the black goop. She was pretending to struggle but since everything below her chest was still free to move and her entire arm (aside from the shoulders) was uncovered this was nowhere near a true attempt. Since she was still mostly uncovered you would like for her to be stuck in the same way as the previous one you decided to speak for the first time.

In your most commanding voice you said “Arms straight and on you sides”. She instantly followed your command. You then waited for the goop to fully encase her body which went suprisingly quick after her boobs where covered, it was still a spectacle to behold however to see the goop glide down her body and slowly glue her arms to her sides and her legs together.

Once she was fully secure you wanted to do 1 final test to ensure she was a masochist before you really started abusing her. You gave her boob a (relativly soft) slap. Instead of a scream, silence or a slew of insults and protests you heard her moan softly through her gag which to you was not only a confirmation that she was indeed a masochist but also a sign that you had to take control of her before you had to punt another masochist in a closet. As such you stuck to your plan of giving her what she wants when she obeys.

“Dont move” you commanded her, she immediatly stopped all movement aside from her breathing. You sat down on her making sure she had no chance of moving away from you in even the slightest manner before grabbing one of her boobs firmly in your hand and slapping it again, she moaned again, then you slapped it again and again and again slowly increasing the **** with which you hit her, with every hit she moaned a little harder and altough she was clearly trying not to move but she still flinched slightly every time. Once you were done with her first boob you repeated it for the other causing much the same reaction. After that you took a breast in each hand and softly kneaded them whilst looking her over in such a manner that made it look as if you were appraising her before repeating the words you heard just a little while ago: “meh, could be worse”. You then sat like that for a few more minutes playing with her tits before letting them go and standing up

It would have been nice to continue not just to ensure her loyalty but also because it was kind of fun and playing with boobs was kind of relaxing. But you would have plenty of time for that once the hunt was over. You also left the little princess alone in the woods at night whilst tied up and while you doubt a simmilar situation as with Chloe would happen this late at night it still left you a little uneasy and so you decided to hurry back.

you took your last and final piece of rope and tied it tightly around her legs making sure to leave a long piece of rope which you grabbed. You didn’t have the rope to make her into another backpack and she probably wouldn’t mind came next that much. You looked over your shoulder at your newly caught **** watching her breasts rise and fall with every heaving breath breath. You gave the rope a tug so she paid attention to you and then started walking. As soon as you moved you could hear a muffled giggle which quickly turned into moans as you dragged her across the forest floor.

She was suprisingly heavy but since you didn’t have to worry much about hurting her aside from the occasional sharp rock and twig you were able to cover a lot of ground and you quickly arrived back to where you left your previous capture who luckily was still bound and suprisingly not struggeling. This lack of enthusiasm quickly went away as you came close enough for her to see you and more importantly see your by now dirty excited capture. Once you reached her you dropped the rope on the ground, removed your nightvision goggles and sat down for a quick rest.

After you felt rested you took the ”princess” on your back, picked up the rope connected to the masochist and headed out towards the nearest deposit. While walking you tried to think of a plan in order to unlock the “metal men” upgrade. Currently you had 10 points, if you could make both of your current captures submit you would end up with the required 10 in order to unlock the upgrade. However the 10 points where only there to unlock the upgrades and it would most likely require more points to actually purchase something. As you thought about these things you arrived at the deposit.

You quickly dropped your princess backpack on the altar and put the masochist on the floor nearby. Glad to finally be relieved from all this carrying. You would seriously need to find a better way to transport captures because ypu weren’t sure how much more of this you could take.

Once you caught your breath you walked towards the altar and looked at your now ex backpack. Based on her body language you could tell she was rather nervous having probably realised that this was your end destination. You removed her gag and spoke to her.

So, have you come to a decision little princess?

A decision about what? She asked

About whether you’ll come with me of course, and whether or not you’ll... submit.

You’re giving me a choice?

Kind of.

She gave you an angry face before you continued.

I’m depositing you regardless of what you want, you’re worth points after all. The choice im giving you is whether or not you submit to me. If you do you may come with me, if you dont... actually I don’t know what happens if you don’t.

And you aren’t going to **** me until I submit to you?

I presumed you weren’t much of a fan of that: no, I won’t harm you.

Wow you really are a softie.

You wanted to protest but she simply continued talking.

But fine, ill come with you. Somebody will have to teach you after all.

It was almost humorous the way she switched between confident and nervous. Here she was, immobile and completly at your mercy and she was still talking as if you were her servant (to be fair you had been carrying her around for a while).

Very well. You continued. Then say it.

Say what?

Proclaim your submission, surrender the last freedom you have and submit yourself to me.

D-do I have to?

You looked at her and in your most dominant voice said: you will say it.

She seemed taken aback for a second before turning cheerfull again. Fine fine i’ll say it: “I submit” Are you happy now?

Yes I am.

So... what happens no-

You cut her off midsentence as you pulled the hidden lever and she fell down into the dark.

———————————————————-

Congratulations, you got + 2 points

+1 capture

+1 submission

You now have a total of +8 points

You now have a total of 18 slaves

You now have a total of 4 prey

———————————————————

Well then. You finally got rid of her. Now then, what to do with you. You mumbled to yourself as you turned your attention to the masochist. What to do with you?

She finally seemed to notice you were talking to her and gave a playfull little wiggle with her body.

I could deposit you right now and see what the “metal men” upgrade is, satisfy my curiocity, probably capture a lot more prey and be rid of you (of course you didn’t want to get rid of her yet, she was way to much fun). The consequence would of course be that you become mine. Alternativly I could.... play, a bit first.

Well i’ll let you think about that for the rest of the night. Tomorrow i’ll remove your gag, if what you say pleases me you will be allowed that freedom. So I highly recommend you think well about it.

Mmmpmmmh (it sounded like a conformation but its hard to tell with the gag).

Now then: i’ll be going to sleep, so you’d better not wake me for anything trivial.

With that final exchange you lied down under a tree, yawned loudly and fell asleep leaving your poor little masochist to ponder the next morning.
