Theo

(chapter originally by faith on writing.com)

Minako yelped in surprise as she saw the doorway to the Velvet Room materialize in front of her. She reddened with shame as Theo, the handsome male attendant (and the brother of Elizabeth) gaped at her in surprise, only to get a little red himself and avert his eyes. Mostly. She could see him sneaking glances at her despite his apparent best intentions.

"What is it?" Yukari asked lazily, her hand stroking Minako's nipple.

"Um..." Minako began, noticing Theo pointing at the doorway while trying (mostly) not to stare. "I think I have to...go take care of something here."

"No kidding." Yukari deadpanned, pressing herself up against her teammate.

"Not that!" Minako said with a blush. "I...Just...keep going and I'll be right back!"

"Uh-huh. Like you can help it. We've all been helpless to stop ourselves for like two hours now. So- hey!" Yukari said groggily as Minako somehow hopped out of bed. "Since when can you do that?"

"Uhhhh....I'm not sure, actually..." Minako said. "I guess...Igor can countermand the shadows?"

"Who?" Mitsuru asked, poking her head up from the bed.

"No one. Look, just..wait a minute, okay? I'll be right back..."

Minako bolted for the doorway, covering herself as she ran past Theo.

"Hey...did...she just disappear?" Yukari asked.

"....This...isn't the first time I sensed something strange about her. Certain phenomena seem to congregate around her like she was magnetic. But...I don't think this one is dangerous." Mitsuru said to herself.

"Huh. So...its not just us, then?"

"Hmmmm?"

"That get drawn to her." Yukari clarified.

"Ah. No. No its not."

"You know the weird part? If they'd gone after me first, I'd be fine. Pissed, but pretty okay. I'd want to **** 'Temptation-sama' or whatever his name is, but the fact that she was the original target? I don't want to kill him...I want to destroy him. Like, tactical nuclear strike on Tartarus kinda destroy. I want him to live just long enough to regret even looking at her forever." Yukari muttered.

"We feel the same way." Mitsuru said softly.

"Do we? Its not just this shadow. That's...what I feel whenever I think of anything that might hurt her. Or anyone who might get in the way of her and me. It...it kind of scares me, Senpai." Yukari said softly. "And I feel it stronger than ever after tonight."

"Does that include me, Takeda?" Mitsuru asked softly.

"....I...I don't know." Yukari said honestly, looking at the naked older woman.

"...until yesterday, I would never have thought I could enjoy being with a woman. Or making love in public. Anyone else, man or woman, would have suffered my wrath for even suggesting such a thing. Yet I did it, of my own free will, for her. I can't imagine anyone having that kind of pull over me. And until tonight I couldn't imagine anyone I would yield to regarding her. But I would for you." Mitsuru said softly.

"Excuse me?"

"It was mostly a lie, what my other self told you. But I did know about you and Minako. Suspected, anyway. I promised myself not to say anything so it would grow on its own, if it was going to grow at all. I didn't want to interfere. And yet here I am, inadvertently in the middle of everything." Mitsurur lamented.

"That's not your fault. I keep telling you two that." Yukari said in exasperation.

"Not the point. Back in Kyoto you promised to stand by me in our fight. I made my own promise. I was going to support you, no matter what. So...so for you I can give up Minako. You alone." Mitsuru said.

Yukari stared at her Senpai a long moment. Then pushed her onto her back and straddled her hips.

"Yukari-chan?!" Mitsuru said.

"No. No talking. Just hold still a sec...." Yukari said.

Mitsuru's eyes widened in surprise. She felt more than saw a big, long phallus inserted into her deep womanhood. The double sided dildo was one of many accoutrements taken from the front desk. With a swish of her hips back and forth Yukari worked the opposite end into her own body, until the pair had embraced both ends of the device fully and had touched one another's sopping lips in the process.

"So I have a question, Senpai..." Yukari said, flicking on the instrument and moving lightly up and down as a pleasurable vibration moved through them. "Does this feel wrong? Do you want me to stop?"

"Ha! No!" Mitsuru gasped.

"Me neither." Yukari whispered, controlling the pace. "And I've lost some very precious people in my life Senpai. We both have. So unless you decide you want that for yourself rather than for our sake....DON'T AH! EVER! AH! SAY! AH! IT! AH! AGAIN!"

She emphasized her words by moving faster and thrusting harder.

"U-Understood!" Mitsuru said, gasping in delight. "Ah! Yukari, don't stop! I'm...I'm going to..."

"Right there with you!" Yukari gasped, pressing herself against the naked woman and kissing her hungrily. The pair came in a shuddering, sweaty mass of limbs and pleasure. Then they were still, Yukari clicking off the vibrator without bothering to extricate herself or her companion from the device.

"That...was wonderful." Mitsuru said after a moment. "How can this feel so...natural?"

"Its like the other you said, Senpai. We've been as close as lovers for a long time now. It didn't take much of a push." Yukari whispered.

"You've adapted well to the situation, Yukari." Mitsuru said in admiration.

"Oh, don't be fooled, Senpai. This is massively embarrassing, and going through what you guys went through would probably kill me! I'm...hoping maybe they'll go easy on us tomorrow?" Yukari ignored Mitsuru's grim expression. "But I was already pretty turned on when I got hit by that stupid mind ray, and...well, this is literally the easiest part of this whole situation to get over!"

"You have a point." Mitsuru said with a smile.

"Besides...I also feel a little guilty letting us be trapped like this..."

"That's absurd. You almost saved us all! You would have, if that...that monster hadn't-"

"I know, I know. But I wouldn't have figured it out without your help."

"Huh?"

"Come on, Senpai. This hotel? This street? You picked this location specifically so I'd be on my guard. If anywhere would scream 'sex crazed girls possessed by shadows' it would be here. Especially for me." Yukari said.

"Heh. All right, Takeda, you've made your point. I was just trying to be modest." Mitsuru said.

"Modesty kinda went out the window awhile ago, Senpai." Yukari kissed her once more. "You REALLY have nothing left to hide this time."

Mitsuru blushed, remembering the previous conversation the pair had had regarding the hot springs.

"Say Senpai...have you ever heard of motorboating?" Yukari asked with a toothy grin.

"I...what? No...is it anything like taking a yacht out on the ocean?" Mitsuru asked.

"That's a very good guess, Senpai. Here, let me show you. Wanted to do this for awhile, to be honest..." Yukari said, flipping the vibrator back on.

"Oh! Ack! Yukari, that tickles! OH! OH! OH!"

MInako found herself once more in the Velvet Room, that strange extradimensional space decked out like a bizarre elevator as blue as the name would imply. Igor was seated before her, his enormous nose and bloodshot eyes staring at her as intently as ever. If he was surprised by her nudity, he showed no trace of it. Not so Elizabeth, the blond haired woman dressed in the blue outfit of an elevator attendant. Her eyes were roaming up and down Minako's body in a show of delight and sexual excitement Minako found completely mortifying. Theo, by contrast, was blushing profusely and was covering his eyes in a show of embarrassment almost as acute as Minako's own. Seated to Igor's left was another woman, blond and regal, her dress and looks closely reminiscient of Elizabeth and Theo. She gave Minako a hard look, clearly disapproving of her complete nudity.

"Welcome to the Velvet Room." Igor intoned pleasantly as ever.

"Thanks." Minako said in a low voice, covering herself and walking awkwardly into the large room. SHe wanted to shrink into herself. She could feel every eye on her!

"Minako-chan!" Elizabeth said, excitedly rushing up to her. "Is it true you've forsaken the use of clothing? What a bold new lifestyle choice! What is it like? Is at as exhilarating as I imagined?"

Minako blushed and bent over as her friend beamed at her, making no effort to conceal how excited the sight of Minako's naked body was to her. "Hi, Elizabeth. Mostly...just really embarrassing!"

"Really? That's even better!" Elizabeth exclaimed.

"Sister, please." Theo said in mortification.

The stern looking woman next to Igor cleared her throat. Minako found herself under the woman's penetrating gaze.

"I am Margaret, eldest sister of those who serve the Velvet Room. I am here to discuss your breach of contract."

"My...what?" Minako said, aghast.

"Your contract. You do recall signing one upon your entry into this room, correct? At the time, you were given only one stipulation. To abide by the contract, and assume responsibility for the choice you make." Margaret said with a scowl.

"Y...yes?" Minako squeeked.

"In the past day, very few of the choices you have made have been your own, and you have not been responsible for your actions!" Margaret declared.

"Oh. Umm. Yes. That-" Minako began.

"The consequences for such a breach of contract are SEVERE." Margaret declared, glaring at her.

"....Oh no. Are...are you going to punish me?" Minako said in small voice.
