A fine balance

Kiki and Jessica wandered the halls of the mansion. On the way in, Kiki had spotted what seemed to be a some sort of large square addition on the back of the building, and she had a suspicion of what it may be.

"This place is massive!" Jessica wondered, eyeing the aged yet regal architecture of the rear foyer they had just entered. The whole building felt almost like an old Victorian hotel or castle, rather than just some mansion given to them by an old patron of the school.

"I know!" Kiki responded. "I can't believe someone just gave it to us."

They pushed open the tall double doors and walked down a short black and white tiled hallway before reaching another set of tall oaken doors. The handle was well oiled, and they pushed them open with a small creak to reveal a cavernous room on the other side.

"I knew it!" Kiki exclaimed.

Kiki had explained that the large square structure looked like it could be some sort of indoor swimming pool, and it appeared that she had been correct. Teal and alabaster tile lined the large indoor pool in spiraling patterns that led up to two tile and stone bleachers lining either side. Jessica walked along the side of the blue waters, staring up at the large glass ceiling letting in copious amounts of the midday sun.

"This is awesome!" She laughed, turning back to Kiki. "What are you doing?" She asked suddenly, as her blonde haired friend began to strip down to her underwear.

"What does it look like?" Her friend questioned, kicking her jeans off to the side, now standing in her orange and white bra and panties. "I'm going for a swim!"

"Kiki!" Jessica laughed as her friend pulled her hair up into a pony tail.

"Are you gonna join me or what?" Kiki smiled, before diving gracefully into the water with barely a splash.

Jessica shook her head, then looked around the hall to make sure there were no prying eyes. Jessica tried to keep herself fit and everyone she knew would tell her how jealous they were of her body, however she still found herself feeling self conscious, especially when wearing very little. However, Kiki was her friend, and there did not appear to be anyone else in the house besides them and her sorority sisters, who were all still getting unpacked across the manor. Walking over to the stone bleachers, she pulled her white shirt of in one fluid movement, her black hair falling back around her shoulders as she tossed it into the stands. Her black jeans were next. Kicking off her sandals, she bent over to pull the pants off her feet.

Dressed now in only her light green bra and thong, she made to toss her pants over with her shirt, when she saw that it was gone. "What the hell?" She muttered, walking over to the side of the bleachers. She had thrown it close to the edge, so she figured it had slipped off.

"Where are you going?" Kiki called up from the waters edge. "The water's great!"

"Be right back! I threw my shirt to hard." She spoke back over her shoulder as she rounded the corner.

"What the fuck?" She heard Kiki friend mutter as if looking away, seemingly distracted by something else now.

Jessica quickly found her shirt a dozen yards away, half fallen into some sort of vent or drain running the length of the floor, leading up to what had to be the door to a locker room. That was strange, she did not think she had thrown it that hard. Walking up to the drain, she bent over to grab her shirt and paused. There seemed to be some sort of purple glow emanating from deeper in the drain.

"What... is...that...." She muttered slowly to herself as her eyes seemed to become transfixed on the light. The violet glow illuminated her face as the light brightened. Jessica begging to feel a sort of warm pulling sensation from her gut. Her bundled up pants pants fell to her side, as she mindlessly reached out towards the source of the glow. "That feels...good." She smiled to herself as a pleasant tingly sensation began to trace up from the fingers of her outstretched hand, flowing up her arm into her chest.

"Whoa! Fuck!" Kiki's cries were muffled by a sudden splash and thrashing of water.

The sound of her friend's cries halfway snapped Jessica out of her trance. She quickly stood up straight and stared back towards the corner of the pool still visible to her. "Kiki?" She called out, still slightly in a daze. Her friend offered no response. "Mmmm, oh!" Jessica jumped slightly as she felt a warm tingling hand slide up the back of her thigh before grabbing a handful of her ass.

She turned and looked behind her, seeing nothing but the continuously brightening glow coming from the drain. Some part of her told her to stay for the light, but the thought of her friend was stronger. Jessica turned and slowly walked back out into the cavernous space, seeing nothing but the still waters of the pool.

"Kiki?" She called out, her voice echoing around the room.

Apart from the pile of clothes near the edge of the pool, there was no sign that Kiki had ever been there. Jessica walked up to the edge of the water and stared down, seeing nothing but the shimmering water reflecting her half naked body back at her, silhouetted by an increasing purple glow behind her.

Jessica. A voice whispered behind her ear.

She slowly turned, and her blue eyes widened at the sight of tendrils of hovering purple miasma floating towards her. That warm pulling in her gut had returned, and her mind seemed to become hazy. "What... what are you?" She questioned, reaching a hand out to the glowing purple substance.

We are. The voice answered, sounding as if a dozen feminine voices humming at once.

"Oh. Okay." Jessica muttered as a tendril slowly slid around her outstretched hand, sending a tingling sensation up her arm, through her chest, and straight down to her toes.

The tingling increased to a hum as she began to slowly try and grip the miasma flowing through her hand, the substance feeling like water with a soul of fire. Jessica was so transfixed on the glow of the entity, she did notice her feet had left the ground, her body hovering slowly above the tile floor as if the pleasant hum coursing through her had changed the laws of physics.

"Have... Have you seen Kiki?" She asked breathlessly as glowing tendrils began to flow around her, one dipping down to slowly coil around her thigh.

We do not know this Kiki. The voice purred around her. But we would like to meet her. The tendril around her thigh had coiled as far as it could, its end now nearing Jessica's underwear.

"Yes, that... That seems nice. Oooooh..." Jessica moaned as the tendril slipped past the crotch of her panties to explore between her legs.

Whatever had been clouding Jessica's mind was now a raging thunderstorm.

"Oh my god..." she closed her eyes and licked her lips as the miasma between her legs found her clit and began to swirl around it with excited energy. She could feel herself quickly becoming damp as more of the entity flowed between her legs.

But first. The voice whispered around her, We want to meet you.

Jessica arched her back and cried out, her body hovering higher above the pool as the entity plunged into folds. "Ah! Oh yes! Please, don't stop!" She called out breathlessly as the entity began to explore deep into her body.

Fear not. The voice soothed her. We are just getting started.

Jessica cried out in ecstasy as the glowing miasma swirled into her, her thoughts scattered to the wind at the entity's intrusion. Somewhere inside her, she felt something was wrong, but that feeling was quickly lost to the feeling of her strange and powerful invader. As her cries of passion echoed out through the massive empty room, Jessica could almost feel a thought from the entity. This place would soon be theirs.

Megan made her way through the twisting wooden passage, or rather she was led through them by whatever entity that was posing as the lingerie she had put on.

"Explain to me again how exactly I'm supposed to help you 'maintain order.'" Megan stumbled to a stop as her clothes pulled her up to another wooden door, identical to all the others.

"As I said, there are many powers and creatures at work on this estate. A doorway that was sealed has been opened again, and I do not know if I can stop what has come through. What is _still _coming through. An order between them must be maintained, or the consequences could spread far beyond these grounds." The entity spoke from where it gripped her tits.

"And I'm supposed to help you with that how?" Megan gasped as the living panties wedged up her backside.

"Be ready when I call for you. I am the warden of this place, but with all these new arrivals I cannot maintain balance alone. Now, place your hands on the door." The entity responded in a commanding voice.

"What will you 'call' me to do exactly." Megan questioned placing both her palms on the wooden door.

"I will explain what I need from you when I need it. Let me show you what I mean." Megan yelped as some sort of energy surged into her body from the apparenty living lingerie between her legs. The electric pulse jolted through her pussy before arcing up her spine and back down her arms, arriving where her hands met the wooden surface of the door.

The wooden surface of the door creaked and seemed to shift somehow, before it suddenly swung open on its own. After the initial shock of the moment wore off Megan realized she was looking out of the back wall of the tall wooden dresser in her bedroom. She felt a nudge forward from the creature, and she stepped through the doorway. Ducking past some of her shirts she had already hung, she stepped out of the open dresser door into her room.

"Remember, I will call on you soon." The voice muttered beneath her.

All at once, the corset unfastened and flew off her chest, zipping back into the closet behind her. Between her legs, the panties began to ripple into a dark liquid shape, before they too slithered down between her legs and launched off her ass, zipping through the air to return to the dresser. The dresser door slammed shut behind them, as Megan stumbled forward at the sudden motion.

"What the hell!?" she grumbled, turning back to the tall wooden wardrobe.

Now naked, she stalked back to the tall wooden frame and opened the door, only to find the regular wooden panel of the back wall. She stepped inside and tried to find any trace of the door she had stepped through, but had no luck. After a quick inspection of the space behind the wardrobe, she realized the tall piece of furniture was not even connected to the wall.

Turning back to her room, nothing seemed out of place. Everything seemingly exactly where she had left it. That is until a rattling sound led her gaze to a small wooden box she had not paid much attention to earlier, sitting on top of her vanity. It was identical to the one she had placed her underwear into back in those strange catacombs. Fearing being sucked back into another bottomless box, she quickly flipped the lid open and leaped back. Nothing seemed to happen, and she peered down into the small oak container. Inside, she found her yellow lingerie laying clumped together in the center of the box.

"Hmmph." She grumbled to herself as she snatched it out and shut the lid behind it.

Megan looked around the room as she contemplated what to do with herself after all the crazy stuff that had just happened. How was she going to tell everyone else? What could she possibly say that did not make it sound like she was crazy? She needed to think. She needed to calm down. She needed...

"Shower." She muttered to herself.

Megan dropped the underwear on her bed and began to dig around her bags for a towel. She pulled out her favorite red cotton one, and grabbed her shampoo. The sorority sister walked off to the other side of the room and shut the door to the bathroom behind her before locking it with a 'click.'

On the bed, her panties began to stir.
