Chapter 26 by latexdoll latexdoll

Wait?

Seems wise.

You hide and wait, several hours pass before the door opens and each time it does a slew of terrible monsters walk through and you don’t see any way you getting past them. Then you spot something sort of terrifying, but it spots you as well. A purple skinned woman with a squid for a head. She is beautiful from the neck down and wears a tight leather bodysuit and high heeled boots. Another oddity, she is armed with twin cowboy revolvers as if she walked out of an old west movie. In your mind she asks you, “Hiding or waiting Drow?”

You quickly search for a good answer and decide possibly a show of bravado might be best. You heft the huge sword till it rests on your shoulder and say, “Just finished a kill, waiting to see if his friends show up. Good to see a friendly face Illithid.” As You say it you have no idea where that word came from.

“Hah, friendly.” She says with a sick laugh.

“Where you headed?”

“Sigil, then on to that damned shrine of Blibdoolboolploop. I have a bounty to cash in from the know-toa, you?”

“Sigil. Not sure from there.”

“Then let me buy you a drink Drow, from one hunter to another.” As she says that she makes an odd sign with her fingers that you recognize making her one of Lolth’s agents. Even though you aren’t sure who Lolth is.

The two of you walk up to the door and you can hear her mentally projecting the thought, “Open the door.” To those inside.

It works and a huge pig faced demon opens the door. Both of you stride through and you do your best, “I belong here.” Look. Now that you are in the rather large room you can see what is inside. Across the room on the wall is a large mirror that seems to swirl with black mist. Next to it is huge, easily 20' diameter silk covered bed, sitting on it are 6 of he demonic beautiful women just like the one you dealt with earlier. As if that wasn't bad enough in the center of the room, looking right at you, is an 18' tall furry demon that looks like an ape with massive bull horns, and foot long claws. “10,000 gold. Each.” The great big beast rumbles.

“Don’t bark at me gatekeeper.” Your new companion says and tosses him a nice looking amulet.

“You will accept magic items for payment of course.” You say, trying to make it sound more like a statement, but knowing quite well your bravado is falling short every time you have to look up into the red eyes towering overhead. Then turning to her you add, “I’m a bit light on cash at the moment.

“What did you bring?” He asks and motions for one of the girls to go to you and take your offering.

The smell of recent sex assails your nostrils as the intensely beautiful girl gets to you. Sure you know she is a demon, sure you know she would suck out your soul and devour it, but you don’t care, it takes a lot of effort not to fall into her deadly embrace. Then again the sight of the massive beast behind her does at least stop you from making the effort. “I have these.” You say holding out the massive sword and bow, blood stains and all.. The demon girl takes a close look at them, steps forward and takes the offered magic items to the huge demon.

They look almost silly in his hands but he takes them up to his face to get a very close look at them before talking. “Very nice. These are worth more than enough.”

Something in you smirks and you call out, “If they are worth more I believe I should get something back.” His look causes you to shift back a step and add, “Sir.”

You can tell he had never even considered such a request, as he seems to be honestly unsure of how he is supposed to react. He scratches his beard like many people do when deep in thought, it is almost comical really. Finally he looks at you and says, “Fine. I won't give you money or gems but I will give you something. But what?” He looks both of you over and says, “Aah I have just the thing, for your girlfriend.” Again he motions for one of the girls to retrieve an item from a chest and bring them to you. She brings forth a rather odd shotgun that has a 5 shot cylinder like a revolver, it is deep blued almost black finish and wooden stock, and a little tag telling you it adds a magical effect to any shot fired that greatly increases the velocity of the projectile without effecting recoil. She also hands you a little bag with what looks like 50 shotgun shells.

“Thanks.” You say and as the two of you head into the portal you can’t believe you are actually getting out of here.

Does anything stop you?
