Failed Containment- Chapter 6: The Protectorate
#6 of Failed Containment
Alexander cursed himself for losing his guard while enjoying the little bat girl. He glared at Marie defiantly, "Glad you enjoyed the show..." he said.
Marie affixed him with her cutest smile and nodded, "Very much so... Unfortunately, playtime is over. You and your little feeder are coming back with us." Alexander shook his head. "And if I refuse?"
Marie brandished the Gladius. "We take you back by force, of course."
Alexander, brimming with electricity from his previous two feedings, reared himself to full height. Towering thirteen feet in the air, brandishing his tentacles menacingly, he formed mouths and gnashing teeth on his appendages. Only Marie looked at him coldly as the suits behind her shifted about nervously. "Now now, Alex." she said, readying her blade. "Let's not be foolish again. Just come quietly... I won't chop of your limbs this time, honey."
Alexander shook his head. "I'm afraid I have to refuse, my dear."
"Oh, baby. Why do you make me hurt you?" Marie said with a smirk. "Take him." she commanded, and the ensemble advanced.
The shapeshifter crackled with electricity, ready to pounce and stun as many of them as he could. He fully intended to go back to the Facility... but on his own terms. Not theirs. "Come and get it, my dear." he said maliciously.
A loud clang echoed throughout the room. A flash of light burst forth from somewhere on the ground. Alexander shielded his eyes as did his assailants. Apparently even their sunglasses weren't enough to protect their eyes from the flashbang. As the group reeled from the attack, Alexander heard a series of pops. As if a sudden burst of air. A series of cries and pained grunts echoed throughout the suited figures before him as one by one, they keeled over. The final pop was punctuated by a large TING.
Marie was the only figure left standing as a slender rabbit girl in a purple jumpsuit pointed a gun towards the fallen pile of Facility agents. "You're fast." the newcomer said, eyeing the bisected tranquilizer dart on the ground in front of Marie. "Who the hell are you?" the snow leopard said through clenched teeth. The rabbit girl shook her head with a small smile, "No one important." Mari uttered a growl, the tentacle monster forgotten. She lifted the Gladius, and poised as if to strike.
Not one to look a gift horse in the mouth and question this stroke of luck, Alexander acted immediately. He snaked a tentacle silently toward Mari who's back was turned, intending to electrocute her with his stored energy. He got close enough to almost touch the snow leopard before Mari spun and cut the offending tentacle with her sword. "Don't even think about it!" she said, visibly angry.
A soft click preceded a very shocked look on Marie's face before she fell to the ground, convulsing. Once again, Alexander peered over the fallen leopard into the smiling face of Melissa holding a tazer. "Feisty one, isn't she?" the foxgirl said with a smile.
"Melissa." Alexander said, "You have impeccable timing, my dear." The foxgirl flashed the shapeshifter a cute smile. Melissa turned to the rabbit girl, "Tie them up, so they aren't tempted to follow us."
The rabbit girl nodded, and Alexander set to looking at Melissa curiously. "Pardon me if I sound ungrateful, my dearest Melissa... but what exactly is going on here?"
"The Facility isn't the only ones with interest in the unnatural, Alexander." Melissa said. "But we don't have much time now, can you be a dear and help Steph out with tying up the captives?"
Alexander nodded, "Of course."
The shapeshifter aided the rabbit in tying up the suits. "Steph. Short for Stephanie I'd imagine?" he asked. The rabbit girl nodded. "Yep."
"You know Melissa?"
"Yep."
"Not a girl of many words, are you?"
"Nope."
The pair finished their work of securing the Facility personnel. Melissa was the first to rouse. She had been merely stunned, not tranquilized. Melissa walked up to her, holding the Gladius. "This is an interesting toy."
Marie glared at the foxgirl holding her sword. "That's the second time you've gotten the drop on me... " The leopard girl seethed from behind bared teeth. "I'm going to enjoy taking you into the Facility..." Melissa shrugged, smiling sweetly. "Hold your breath."
Marie spat at the foxgirl. "Cunt." Melissa didn't gratify Marie with a response.
Alexander slithered over to the bound snow leopard. " Now now, my dearest Marie. Is there really a need to be so nasty?" Marie shot Alexander a furious look, as if she might set the tentacle monster ablaze with her stare alone. "Fuck. You. Alex."
The shapeshifter chuckled. "Hehehehe... Now now. You look alluringly helpless in your current predicament, my dear Marie. Wouldn't want me to lose myself and sample you as only I can, now would we?"
Marie looked at the shapeshifter before smirking evilly. "Who says I don't want that? All tied up like this, oh my... I wouldn't be able to do anything to resist you... completely at your mercy."
Alexander tapped the snow leopard on the nose playfully, "You are a terrible woman, my dear. "
Marie leaned forward as much as her bonds would let her. With her hands and ankles tied, she could do little in her kneeling position. She tilted her head up and snaked out her tongue, running it the length of Alexander's outstretched appendage and flicking the top with the tip. She looked deep into the tentacle monster's feline eyes, and Alexander felt himself losing control. Perhaps enjoying the dear Marie wouldn't be such a bad idea... She was tied up and without her weapon after all....
"Alexander!" Melissa snapped. The stern sound of her voice brought the shapeshifter back to reality, robbing him of his fantasies regarding the delicious leopard girl. "Let's go!" the foxgirl said again.
Alexander shook his head and turned to face Melissa. He saw that Stephanie had already managed to pick up the unconscious Sophie. "We're leaving." the rabbit girl said. Melissa shook her head, smiling at Alex. "Come on. You can play with her another time, my friend." The shapeshifter made a mock show of pouting and slithering off wearily. "Where are we going?"
Melissa smiled and shook her head, "A safe place."
Alexander shrugged and continued following the fox girl. Stephanie still carried Sophie in her arms.
Melissa led them back to the large black van and cranked the engine as Alexander, Stephanie, and Sophie got into the back. "So where is this safe place?"
Melissa shook her head. "Always with the questions, Alex... Steph, go ahead and tell him."
"We are the Protectorate." the rabbit girl said.
"The what?"
"The Protectorate. An organization dedicated to securing and protecting the supernatural. The Protectorate is opposed to the Facility, who wants to control and harness the supernatural."
"Ah..." Alex said, taking the information in. He turned to the foxgirl "Is that why you helped me, my dear Melissa?"
Melissa nodded. "You were escaping anyway, might as well get you to escape to our side... You were able to get into the Facility for at least a time, so you're good at sneaking around... Figured if I helped you escape, and you sided with us, it would be worth blowing my cover."
Alexander smirked, "And here I thought it was my natural charms that led you to help me."
Melissa laughed, "Well, that, too." She smiled at him through the rear view mirror, "Your personal reward was much worth it."
"Hm hmm, glad it was, my dear."
Alexander looked at the rabbit currently tending to his pet. "I take that you were who Melissa really went to go get?"
Stephanie nodded. Melissa spoke again. "Backup, in case the Facility decided to show itself. Sorry I didn't have time to get food. Zachariah said the Facility was on the move, so I had to rush back."
"Zachariah?"
"He's our wizard."
"Wizard?"
"You'll see."
"Fair enough..."
Alexander settled down. They drove for a few hours with little more conversation before the shapeshifter noticed them driving into another warehouse district. "Steph. The door." Melissa said as the van slowed down. The rabbit girl reached into her suit and pulled out a small black remote. She pressed a button on it and the warehouse door opened, revealing a a large ramp that led downward. The van pulled into the ramp, and the door closed behind them. "Welcome to the Protectorate, Alexander." Melissa said as she pulled the van into a stall surrounded by a large copper fence. Melissa got out, and walked over to a device protruding out of the ground. She pressed a button and spoke into what appeared to be an intercom device. "Get Rodger down here to dismantle this thing, ASAP. I don't know if it's lo-jacked but I don't need the Facility snooping around."
"Lo jacked? So that's how they found us so fast..." Alexander said. Melissa shrugged, "I don't know, but I'm not taking any chances."
The foxgirl led the group into the heart of the Protectorate's grounds. Alexander felt a haunting familiarity in the white hallways. He drew a few stares as he slithered through the halls, but seemed to enjoy the attention.
Melissa led him through the facility, while Stephanie took Sophie off to the medical bay. "She'll be well taken care of. We'll get her some rest and give her something to eat."
Alexander nodded, "Good. She's been through a lot. Please take good care of her."
Melissa nodded back, "We will. Don't worry." She gave a small giggle, "Your little feeder girl is safe with us."
Alexander seemed to relax then. "So about getting something to eat..."
Melissa nodded. "Cafeteria's this way."
Alexander followed the foxgirl through the hallways. "So what now?"
Melissa shrugged, "You'll meet with the Curator in the morning. He's on his way from another Site."
The foxgirl proceeded to buy the two of them meals from the cafeteria, and brought one to sit down at a table with Alexander, who had drawn his tentacles into his body and assumed the plain form of a cat. He wolfed down his food without ceremony, eagerly needing to restore some mass to his body. He had bioelectricity, which gave him the energy he needed. However, to fully recuperate, he needed proteins and amino acids to fully restore himself. He could not regenerate the mass he'd lost to Marie's swords without absorbing a similar amount of matter to replace it. Melissa continued to talk as he ate, barely touching her own food. "After you meet with the Curator, you'll pretty much decide to work with us, or we'll see you on your way and hope the Facility doesn't find you or Sophie."
"So your Protectorate doesn't have any qualms about letting a monster go?"
Melissa smiled, "We have no qualms about letting someone who has proven themselves to be a good person go. We don't believe you to be a danger to the public, so you will be allowed freedom. We do the same for most supernaturals that are capable of blending in with normal society. I mean, the ones that are clearly unnatural, we allow them to go if they want, but most of them choose to stay since they're more or less accepted here."
Alexander nodded, "I see..." He finished his meal and Melissa led him to the dorm wings. She led him to a room labeled "Temporary" and opened it. "You can sleep here."
"And Sophie?"
"She'll be staying in the Medical Wing for observation."
"I see..."
Melissa smirked at the tentacle monster. "What's the matter? Missing your feeder girl already?"
Alexander shook his head, chuckling a little. "I promised to protect her."
The foxgirl smiled at him. "Pretty sweet for a tentacle monster."
"Jealous, my dear?"
Melissa shook her head. "Why ask?" She stretched her arms up, playing innocent as she let her cleavage strain against the shirt she was wearing. She turned around, flipping her hair and swaying her hips slightly. "Eager to spend another night with me?"
Alexander raised an eyebrow, "Methinks the lady didn't get enough reward, no? Hm hmm hmmm..."
"Well, I did save your life. You kind of owe me your freedom, don't you think?" "Well, this humble servant would be honored if he could show the lady a fine evening in his company to at least partially make up for it, my dearest Melissa."
Melissa placed a finger to her lips as she thought long and hard. "Hmmmm..."
Alexander stepped around behind Melissa, and placed his hands on her shoulders. He commenced to squeeze and rub, massaging her gently. "Please, my dear Melissa? You wouldn't want to force this humble shapeshifter to sleep alone, now would you? All alone in the cold, hm hmm..."
The foxgirl giggled, "All right. I'll keep you company."
Melissa walked into the temporary room, Alexander followed eagerly, excited to be sampling the delicious foxgirl again. A tentacle snaked out of Alexander's back and closed and locked the door behind them.
Alexander snaked out another tentacle as Melissa walked into the room. He slowly extended it and brushed against Melissa's inner thigh. She jumped a little with surprise, but soon turned around and affixed Alexander with a wry smile. "Eager to get started, are we?"
"I could not resist, my dear."
"Really, now?"
The tentacle monster looked at the foxgirl with as innocent a smile as he could muster. "Quite right, my dear."
Melissa took the appendage into her hand and brought it to her mouth. She opened and took the tentacle into her mouth, sucking on it greedily. She opened again and allowed her tongue to run the length of his tendril again and again, flaying it with her tongue. She then pressed the tip of her tongue against the tip of his tentacle, looking Alexander in the eyes seductively before taking the appendage into her mouth again. She bobbed her head up and down, pleasuring it as she wrapped both of her hands around it. Alexander watched the alluring display, grinning wide as she pleasured his protrusion to the best of her ability. Melissa worked the tentacle to the best of her ability, which was considerable. She gave the finale to her show by taking the tentacle as deeply into her throat as she could, holding there as her natural throat contractions milked the tentacle of its conductive slime. She pulled it out and let the slime drip onto her face a bit, leaving small fiber-optic strands of saliva and slime connecting her to the tentacle. She wound the show down by kissing the top of Alexander's tentacle before wiping her mouth. "The leopard girl isn't the only one with a pleasing mouth, my darling Alexander."
Alexander felt the heat well up within him, his own hormones driving his unnatural brain and filling it with one desire: to feed. He shook his head as if to clear it, reeling from the erotic display. "Excellent, my dear Melissa... Let us see how you do without those hands, hm hmm hmmm..."
After assisting the foxgirl with the removal of her clothes, the tentacle monster wrapped two tentacles around her wrists, and extended them upward. Soon he had the foxgirl dangling from his tentacles, her tiptoes barely able to touch the floor. Two more tentacles wrapped around her ankles, and spread her legs apart. A single tentacle snaked forth to run itself between Melissa's nether lips, not quite penetrating her, but stimulating her enough to elicit a soft moan. "Mmmn." she moaned. Alexander slid a waiting tentacle into her parted lips, which she commenced to suck on eagerly. She accepted it as far as he pushed it into her mouth, and her moans became muffled around his phallic protrusion.
With her mouth occupied, and sending a steady pleasurable stimulation as he teased her clit, Alexander brought a thicker, tapered tentacle to the foxgirl's unattended tailhole. She gave a gasp as he pushed into her waiting pucker, stretching her out as the tentacle was driven deeper into her abdomen. Alexander pushed and pushed until the first electrical signals of pain reached him from the foxgirl, then stopped.
With a smirk, Alexander shifted a tongue onto yet another tentacle, and set it to mercilessly lick at Melissa's dripping sex. More muffled moans escaped the foxgirl as she clenched instinctively around the tentacle invading her ass. Alexander stepped closer to his captive foxgirl and brought his hands to cup her breasts. "You are quite lovely, my dear." he said, tweaking her nipples. She only answered him with a pleading look and another moan. Alexander's claws roamed her body, he scritched behind her ears, before running his hands along her neck. He ran his hands over her shoulders, then down her sides. Melissa reflexively arced her back, the light touches a bit ticklish and more than pleasurable.
The tentacle monster ran his paws over Melissa's cream-colored stomachfur. He leaned in and licked the nape of her neck as the foxgirl's moans intensified. Alexander's careful attention was overloading her senses, sending wave after wave of bioelectricity coursing into Alexander's form. "Come for me, my dear." Alexander whispered.
Melissa answered with another loud moan. "Let it go, hm hmm hmmm..." Alexander said, reaching his hand out to slip a few fingers into the foxgirl's aching sex. More waves of pleasure escaped her, and Alexander drank them deeply. Melissa's entire body tensed up before the tentacle monster's attentions were rewarded. The foxgirl screamed around the tentacle in her mouth as her body was wracked with an orgasm. Her body convulsed in a spasm as she came down off of her orgasm, and Alexander withdrew his tentacles from her, setting her down on the bed gently.
Melissa sighed as she bathed in the afterglow. "Once again, Alex. That was amazing..." she heaved in between her deep breaths. She affixed him with a stern look, "Was the trunk up my ass necessary, though?" She reached behind her and rubbed the orifice in question. When she pulled her hand away, a trail of conductive slime could be seen coating her fingers, "I don't think I will be able to sit right for a few days..."
Alexander chuckled innocently, "It looked like it needed some attention."
Melissa rolled her eyes "Tch. Pervert."
The tentacle monster bowed, "Guilty as charged." he said before setting his tentacles to massage the foxgirl as she lay on the bed. She gave another soft moan as her muscles relaxed and her brain still came down off of her orgasm. It was not long before Melissa's relaxation had her eyes fluttering closed and she drifted off to sleep.
With the foxgirl fast asleep, Alexander set to work. He quickly unscrewed the ventilation grate, and slithered into the opening. "Time to do a little exploring, hehehehe..." he whispered to himself as he made his way though the shafts.
"We shall see what we shall see, hm hmm hmmm..."
