Cross Effects 3.0 - The Third Time's the Charm? The Velvet Room (NSFW version)

[Elf]

Forest

Forest was lead over to sit on the bed in front of Micheal with Adjutor and his metal tendrils still behind her.  She sat in front of the dark haired immortal and tilted her head, very much like a crow, at his words.  She said, "Soooo, I need a Safe Word then.  Bloody hell, I'd never thought I'd use a safe word . . ."

She took a deep, unneeded breath and said, "Batman.  That's going to be my Safe Word.  Batman."


Wynn

Wynn's eyes narrowed at the mention of Forest and she gave Sakura's hair a hard tug.  "Do not mention those you have know knowledge of," Wynn said in a saccharine whisper in Sakura's ear.

Adjutor and Michael

In spite of the situation, in spite of the pounding in his head and the tingling feeling racing across his skin from the aphrodisiac, Forest's words still brought that old theme song to mind for Adjutor, who had to hold back a laugh in spite of himself.

Michael, meanwhile, tilted his head to the side as he considered the choice of safe word.

"Very well," the immortal said, scooting up until he was right up against Forest, her back against his chest as Adjutor brought her bound hands around in front of her.

"So, the question is, would you rather start off slow?" Michael said, hands sliding up under the turtleneck as he leaned in, head resting on her shoulder, "Or would you rather take things a bit...faster?"

Sakura

"Her last translator ran away because she was set upon by a dashing young man," Emily responded to Sakura's comment, after translating it for Wynn's benefit, "she didn't hold herself back, and chances are that it's turning out quite well for her. As for her, well, if she has any interest in your well-being, I'm sure she'd understand just how dangerous it is to keep yourself all pent-up."

Sakura looked at Emily with annoyance.

"I am a happily married woman, I do not want to have sex with you, or with her. No matter how 'pent-up' I get, I will not cheat on my husband."

Before Emily could translate it, though, Wynn tugged hard on Sakura's hair, and whispered something in her ear that she could not quite understand, but which seemed to refer to the previous translator. The captive girl yelped from the pain, before looking at the woman with anger and defiance. Presumably, her comment about the translator leaving had upset her and, since upset people did not fight so well, Sakura thought it might be a good idea to continue along those lines. First, though, she should check where Rider was.

Rider, where are you? she asked.

I'll be there soon, just hold on, came the reply.

Hmm, well, there's no time for her to do much to me, Sakura thought, deciding that it was a good idea to make the woman as angry as possible, to ensure she would not fight well. She seemed to like the woman who had left, so perhaps threatening her might do the trick.

"You like her, do you? Well, maybe I should have Rider fuck her when she's finished with you", Sakura said with as much malice as she could manage, feeling slightly dirty for making the false threat.

Emily

Emily raised her other eyebrow at the latest of Sakura's threats. Hesitating for a moment before resigning herself to translate the foolish girl's words for Wynn's benefit.

"I feel that I should point out that I happen to be an excellent healer," Emily said in English after translating, not bothering to repeat herself for Sakura's benefit.

[Elf]

Wynn

Wynn's eyes narrowed as Emily translated the girl's threat towards Forest before laughing darkly and tilting Sakura's face towards hers.  "You are not the first person to threaten her that way and fail," Wynn said before stroking the girl's lip with her thumb.

"As for your husband, the penis is so boring," Wynn said with a smirk as she sharpened and hardened shadows to cut Sakura's clothing apart before she kissed her.


Forest

Michael was at Forest's back now, warm hands sliding under her turtleneck.  His finger tips were rough against her cool, silken skin and she gasped as Adjutor moved her hands to a more comfortable position.

"So, the question is, would you rather start off slow?" Michael said, his head resting on her shoulder, "Or would you rather take things a bit...faster?"

Forest bit her lip and said, "W-well I do need foreplay.  If not it's not going to be good for any of us."  She did lean back against him, lifting her legs for Adjutor to take off her boots and anything else he wanted.

[Panda]

Adjutor and Michael

"Hmm...true," Michael admitted, teasing the soft skin along her neck with little nibbles and licks, "Slow, then."

Meanwhile, Adjutor took Forest's legs in his hands, allowing a moment to the feel of her soft skin in his hands before sliding off her boots, first one, then the other, the footwear soon followed by the socks underneath. The teen traced his hands up Forest's legs, letting her feet back down on the plush carpet as he made his way up.

Meanwhile, Michael slowly eased Forest's turtle neck up, retreating from her for a moment to lift it clear of her body, leaving the garment dangling on the tendrils binding her hands together.

Sakura and Rider

Sakura could see the woman anger as Emily translated the threat. She let out a dark laugh that put Sakura on edge, despite knowing rescue was imminent, and tilted her face towards Sakura.

"You are not the first person to threaten her that way and fail", she said, once more in English, before stroking Sakura's lip with her thumb.

Sakura, once more, could not fully understand what she was saying, but it appeared to be some response to her threat, seemingly claiming that Rider would fail. Sakura smirked for a moment, but the smirk soon fell off her face when Wynn's shadows began to slice at her clothes, cutting them to ribbons and leaving her standing there fully nude. Then, the woman leaned in and kissed her on the lips.

Sakura shuddered at what was happening, pulling on the tendrils holding her arms above her head in a futile attempt to cover herself. Fortunately, though, she knew Rider would soon arrive. She could sense her approaching. The woman would not get a chance to cause her any harm before she was freed.

"But, I no fail", Sakura said in broken English, not expecting the translator to have the chance to translate a Japanese statement before all hell broke loose.

With that, her servant ran through the wall and appeared in the room, throwing one of her nails at the tendrils binding Sakura's hands and the other at Wynn, careful to position herself so as to not be able to accidentally hit Sakura. Keeping herself in motion to avoid being caught by the tendrils, Rider shouted, angered by the abuse Wynn appeared to be inflicting on her.

"Let my master go, now! Your magic is no match for me!" she said, angrily.

[Panda]

Emily

A foe supposedly beyond us. Most likely beyond me...Should be simple enough.

Emily smirked, already preparing the needed Contract. Vines burst from the nearby potted plants, streaming out in preparation for-

Right on cue, a faint stirring registered to Emily, the faintest hint of Kenning. The vines streamed up in front of Wynn just in time for a large nail attached to a chain to slam into them, sinking deep into the vines but not getting through.

"What the-?" Emily exclaimed, doing what she could to act the part of a surprised bystander.

[Elf]

Wynn

"But, I no fail," Sakura continued in her broken English as Wynn bared her to the air.  Wynn admired the fair skin of the young lady when Rider crashed into the room.  Literally. Wynn sighed as the lavender haired woman crashed through the wall. 

Something sharp was thrown at the shadows binding Sakura and at Wynn's face.  Wynn held up her hand and summoned a portal of shadows that the nail passed through.  Controlling the shadows, the nail ended up clanking harmlessly at Emily's foot.

"Let my master go, now! Your magic is no match for me!"

Wynn smirked as she ran her fingers through Sakura's hair.  "It may not be a match for you, Rider, but your master is severely underclassed against me, not to mention your connection with her can be broken."


Forest

"Slow.  Slow is good.  Time isn't an issue so, yay slow," Forest said with a shiver as Adjutor removed her boots and Michael pulled off her shirt.  It pooled at her wrists and she bit her lip at her lack of bra, already bare to the two men.  To make matters worse, as soon as the pink tips were exposed to the air, her nipples hardened.

She bit her lip as Adjutor traced his hands up her pale, long legs.  His fingers were cooler than Micheal's, and not as rough. 

[Cherry Lover]

Rider

Rider frowned as the nail heading for Wynn was blocked by the sudden appearance of a wall of vines. Meanwhile, the second nail, heading for the shadow tendrils binding Sakura, was intercepted by a shadow portal, causing it to fall harmlessly at Emily's feet.

"What the-?" the red-haired girl explained, feigning surprise.

Rider looked at her with suspicion, strongly suspecting that the wall of vines had been her doing. After all, Wynn's magic relied on shadows, and there was no reason why she would use two completely different types of magic like that. Still, that was no big deal. Rider was fairly certain Emily was considerably weaker than Wynn, and if she was fighting on Wynn's side, then that just gave Rider an excuse to torture the beautiful red-head once Wynn was out of the way. For now, though, Emily was not the primary concern, Wynn was.

The black-haired woman was still stood next to the captive, nude Sakura, running her fingers through her hair and admiring her beautiful body.

"It may not be a match for you, Rider", she said,  "but your master is severely underclassed against me, not to mention your connection with her can be broken."

Rider frowned at that. She wasn't sure what Wynn had in mind, but she needed to end this battle quickly. So, she charged at Wynn, nails at the ready, preparing to grab her master and run away with her.

Sakura

Sakura shuddered as she watched Wynn admire her nude body, knowing that, if her servant was unable to defeat this woman, the threats she had made would likely earn her a very harsh punishment. Still, she trusted Rider, and expected her to succeed. She watched with some dismay as the servant's nails were deflected from their paths, failing to either hit Wynn or free her from the shadow bindings.

Rider's initial plan having failed, Wynn then taunted the servant. Once again, Sakura could not understand what she was saying, but it seemed to be referring to her, presumably threatening some retribution if Rider attacked. Sakura shuddered, but did not order Rider to stop. She was fairly certain that Wynn had no desire to kill her, that would end her fun and, as she had said, she was extremely bored.

[Panda]

Emily

Calm. Calm. Panic kills people. Remain calm.

At this point, Emily realized that the best thing she could do here was translate. With that in mind, she translated Wynn's threat to Japanese for Sakura's benefit, ready to literally vanish into thin air if she had to.

[Elf]

Wynn

Wynn smirked as Rider charged at her.  Sakura's Servant was surprisingly fast, but Wynn sank into the shadows at her feet, vanishing immediately.   While in her swirling chamber of darkness she summoned the dreaded sword at her side and the protective charm on her ear to protect her from its effects.

She stepped out of Sakura's shadow with Múch an Spréach in her hand.  She angled the blade at Sakura and said to Rider, "Please ask your Master if she knows what this can do."

[Cherry Lover]

Rider and Sakura

Rider charged towards Wynn, her nails raised, preparing to strike the evil woman down and save her master. Just as she got into range, though, Wynn suddenly disappeared into the ground, and Rider found herself swiping at thin air.

Eh, what?

Rider turned around to see Wynn standing next to Sakura, a frightening-looking sword in her hand, pointing it directly at Sakura.

"Please ask your Master if she knows what this can do", she said.

Rider froze in place, not wanting to attack in case the sword would cause Sakura harm.

Sakura, what is that sword? She thinks you should know, Rider said over their mental link.

I don't know, I've never seen it before. It looks dangerous, though, be careful, Sakura responded.

"She's never seen it before, Wynn. Why should she know what it is?" Rider responded.

[Elf]

Wynn

"It is called Múch an Spréach," Wynn said, "Which, in English, roughly translates to 'Snuffer of the Spark'.  Spark being your ability to wield magic and . . ." Her eyes raked over Rider's form.

"The ability to transfer it to your familiar.  All I would need to do is make a tiny cut."

[Cherry Lover]

Rider and Sakura

Rider shuddered at hearing Wynn's words. Without her connection to Sakura, it would be difficult for her to survive in the world for any length of time. She may be able to find a way to survive, but it was uncertain. And, from what she said, it seemed unlikely that Rider, as fast as she was, could attack quick enough to prevent Sakura taking so much as a scratch.

Sakura, she says it will cut off your prana transfer to me if she cuts you with it, Rider said, sadly.

Sakura shivered, tears filling her eyes when she heard her servant's telepathic response. She was defeated, either she gave up her beloved Rider or she allowed Wynn to do with her as she wished.

The servant looked over Sakura, shivering and crying, and made her decision. Sakura had suffered too much, she couldn't allow her to be raped and tortured by this woman. Raising her nails, she prepared to charge.

It's been good to serve you, Sakura, she said, sadly.

Sakura looked on in horror as she noticed her servant raise her weapons.

"No! Rider, no! I don't want you to die! Please, don't die!" Sakura shouted tearfully. "Please, Rider, just surrender. I can take being raped, I don't want to lose you."

Rider sighed and, reluctantly, dematerialised her nails, before raising her hands in the air.

"Very well, I surrender", she said in English. "Do what you wish to me but, please, spare my master".
