Temple of the Snake
A lost jungle explorer comes across a forgotten temple, and just have to know what is inside. Turns out that something still dwells there... Just a quickie I wrote immediately after finishing the last Mail Order Dragon yesterday. Just something about a giant snake having its way with its helpless prey that gets me going! Story contains some vore, but nothing graphic, and non-consensual sex. Hope you like it!
I panted in fear as I crashed through the jungle. My guide was gone. Some kind of giant plant had taken him right in front of my eyes. I tripped and hit the ground hard, and was momentarily dazed. I looked behind myself and paused to listen. The noise of my reckless charging through the undergrowth had caused the creatures of the jungle to fall silent. I looked around frantically, but it seemed I was safe for the moment. I sat up to catch my breath, and clutched my head in my hands, as I thought back to the horror I had seen.
I had hired a local guide to lead me into the jungle. I was an archeologist who specialized in ancient peoples from this region. It was rumored there was an old temple hidden in the jungle, and the man I had hired claimed to know where it was, and offered to lead me to it for a price. It shamed me that I had seen him die, but couldn't even remember his name. I recalled with terror what I had seen. As the man had led me through the dense jungle, he passed close to a tree that had been covered in unusual thick vines. With unbelievable speed, one of the vines had suddenly struck at him, and coiled rapidly around his chest. The man had dropped his machete in surprise, and panicked as he pulled against the thick vine wrapped around him. I had begun to move closer to help when more vines slithered from the tree and rapidly snared his limbs. I watched in horror as the vines that writhed across the guide's body lifted him from the ground, then rapidly pulled him up into the trees canopy. The man screamed as he flailed in the grip of the vines, and my eyes bulged in shock as I saw some kind of plant pod that resembled a giant flower perched in the tree branches above. As the man was pulled closer, the petals split open, and the vines fed the man into it. The petal-like sides quickly closed over the squirming man, and I could see the sides of them flex as the man inside struggled. I was frozen in shock at what I had just seen. I quickly came to my senses when I saw there was another of those unusual flowers in the tree, and realized more of those frightening mobile thick vines were starting to creep towards me. I turned and ran.
I took deep breaths to calm myself, looking at the surrounding trees to make sure they weren't covered in those thick vines, but it seemed I was safe for now. What in the hell had that plant been? I never believed anything like that could even exist! That plant would have been a botanist's wet dream, but to me it was some kind of monstrous nightmare. I looked around, nothing looked familiar in the slightest. Wearily I climbed to my feet and sighed. I wasn't even sure what direction we had gone from the village when we had left! I would have at least known a general direction to head in if I had paid more attention. I had been so distracted from the excitement at the prospect of discovering an undocumented temple. I cursed myself for my incompetence. If I could find the river, I might be able to find my way back. I decided to set out in hopes of finding it, and began making my way through the underbrush. I kept a wary eye on the trees as I passed, looking out for any more unusual vines.
I had no idea how long I wandered. I was covered in sweat and insect bites. As I pushed my way through yet another wall of thick underbrush, I was startled to find myself in a large clearing. I gasped to see a large stone structure at the center of it. Surprisingly it wasn't covered in vines as most old structures you come across in the jungle. Could it be the temple? Maybe things were finally starting to turn around. I crossed the clearing to the entrance of the hulking stone structure. I looked down the stone stairs that led inside to find it was surprisingly well lit, criss crossing beams of sunlight lit the way. I theorized that perhaps the structure had been built that way to utilize the sun to light it. Cautiously, I made my way down the stairs, looking everywhere for any signs of possible traps. I took each step tentatively, in case any of them were triggers. Eventually I made it to the bottom without incident. I followed a tunnel that eventually opened up into a massive main chamber. A large pool of water was at the center. Beams of sunlight lit the room in a similar criss-cross pattern as I had seen on the stairs. Motes of dust floated lazily through them. I approached the pool of water at the center, and found that it was surprisingly clear and clean looking. I nearly jumped out of my skin when someone spoke to me.
“Somebody enters the temple? It has been so long…" the voice sighed. “Have you brought a tribute for me?" I spun around searching for who spoke. I couldn't pinpoint its source. “You've come alone? Perhaps you are the tribute then…" the voice mused.
“Who's there?" I called out nervously, trying to look everywhere at once as I slowly moved back towards the stairs. I spun back to face the pool of water when I heard the sound of water splashing. I gasped as a massive serpent rose from the pool, it appeared to be some kind of anaconda based on its green and black coloring, and yellow underbelly. But I doubted anybody had ever seen one quite this large. Its head was just wider than my upper body, its thick body continued to slither from the pool of water, its length seemed to be endless. I was rooted in fear as the snake slithered closer. It stopped in front of me, then raised its head so it was level with my face and regarded me curiously with its golden eyes, its tongue flickered out as it tasted the air. I didn't know what to do.
“Hmm, interesting" the voice commented. “You don't look anything like the others. What brings you here?" The snake tilted its head as it looked at me. As slowly as I possibly could, I began to slowly back away. I only made it a few steps before I felt something wrap around my calf tightly. “Don't back away when I'm speaking to you, it's very rude" My eyes widened in shock. Was it the snake talking to me? I glanced down to my leg and saw that the end of the snake's tail had coiled around my calf.
"I…I'm sorry, but are you the one speaking to me?" I asked in confusion as I looked nervously at the snake's head.
“Of course I am, who else is here?" the voice said in mild amusement.
“But…how? Your mouth isn't moving…not to mention…you're a snake! How do you even know my language?" I asked incredulously. I could have sworn the snake smirked at me.
“I am no mere snake! I'm speaking to you directly in your mind, that's why it seems to you that I know your language" the snake explained.
“Again, how?!? I'm sorry if I seem confused, but you must understand that a telepathic snake is completely unheard of!" I said in exasperation.
“I used to be a normal snake, but the shamans who used to worship here used their magic to change me. Their magic gave me intelligence, longevity, and made it so I could grow to this size" the snake told me.
“But…why?" I asked.
“To protect the temple from intruders" the snake replied, drawing an involuntary shiver from me.
“Do you have a name?" I asked nervously, hoping to distract the snake from considering me as an intruder.
“They simply called me the guardian" the snake said.
“Well, my name is..". I started to say, before the snake cut me off.
“It doesn't matter" the snake said flatly in my head. I gasped in fear, as the snake's tail curled further up my leg and tightened painfully. “Look into my eyes" the snake commanded. I felt helpless to resist, and did as he had ordered me. The snake's golden eyes shimmered, and it seemed like their pupils shrank to nothing, leaving only dual golden pools. It felt like I was slowly drowning in them. The snake's head began to slowly sway from side to side, my head followed its movement helplessly. My whole world was those two golden pools, as they slowly merged together to form one, and I felt myself falling towards it. It felt like something physically clicked in my head, and I sighed as I felt my muscles relax. The snake's tail slipped off of my calf, as I stood staring at the snake.
“You look hot and tired. Perhaps you would like to take a dip in the pool? The water is so refreshing" the snake offered.
“That does sound nice" I agreed dreamily, and nodded.
“Perhaps you should remove your clothing, it will feel even better" the snake suggested. I again nodded my agreement, and slowly began removing my clothes. As I was removing my clothes, the snake slithered back into the pool, his thick coils floated on the surface. I finished removing my clothes and stood there, swaying slightly. “Come join me" the snake invited. I nodded and grinned, and slowly walked to the edge of the pool. I sat down on the edge, and dipped my legs in the cool water, then slid in. The snake had been right, the water was refreshing. The pool was deep, and I had to tread water to stay afloat as I drifted towards the snake in the water. I barely noticed as the snake's coils began to surround me where I floated, until one of them brushed against my back. I shook my head, my thoughts were fuzzy, but I realized something wasn't right.
“Wait, what?" I began to ask, but suddenly the snake's head was in front of me again, and his golden eyes captured my attention again. I felt the sensation of drowning again, and began to flail slightly in the water, but then I felt the snake's coils against my body.
“Everything is fine, just relax" the snake assured me soothingly. A thick coil looped around my chest to help me stay afloat, and I felt myself relax again, feeling secure. I ran my hands admiringly over the snake's scales. They felt so smooth and soft beneath my touch. Another coil wrapped around me beneath the first one, well yet another thick section of coil slowly slithered between my legs and against my crotch. The sensation of those smooth scales sliding against my most intimate areas made me gasp. The snake's coils almost made a whispering sound as they rubbed against each other in the water around me.
“I have slept for a very long time, and I am starving. I am hungry for more than just food though…" the snake whispered in my mind. I felt a mild sense of alarm, but then a vision of the golden pools of the snake's eyes filled my mind again, and my fear subsided. I closed my eyes, and enjoyed the feeling of those scales gliding between my legs. The snake's tail began to curl gently around my legs beneath the water, binding them together. The snake used its tail to lift my legs towards my chest, then I suddenly felt something poking against my asscheeks. The sense of unease returned when I realized what it was. I began to struggle slightly, and the coils around my chest and legs suddenly became crushingly tight.
“Do not struggle, you'll only make it harder on yourself" the snake advised me. The fog in my mind began to fade, and I realized the terrible danger I was in. I gripped at the coil around my chest in fear, then cried out in surprise when I felt the snake begin to drive the pointed tip of his cock into me. I clenched as tightly as I could to try to keep it out, but it was futile. It felt impossibly huge as it forced its way inside of me, and I gritted my teeth as my breath hissed loudly through them in discomfort.
“Please!" I begged, but the coils tightened even further around my chest, driving the air from me. I gasped for air as the snake mercilessly forced himself even deeper into me. I struggled in his coils, but they were unyielding.
“Don't worry, it will be all over soon" the snake soothingly assured me, the voice in my head sounded like it was panting. The coils loosened slightly, and all I could do was cling grimly to the thick coil around my chest as the snake had its way with me. I grimaced as I felt his massive cock begin thrusting into me, and closed my eyes as I waited for it to be over. The snake's thrusting began to increase in pace, and I grunted in pain with each thrust of his massive cock. Just when I thought I couldn't take anymore, the snake hissed loudly, and I felt warmth fill me as the snake came violently inside of me. Slowly, the snake pulled his still twitching cock from me, and I sighed with relief that it was out of me, and tiredly laid my head on the thick coil around my chest.
“Please…you got what you wanted from me, just let me go!" I pleaded in exhaustion.
“I haven't gotten everything I wanted from you yet" the snake replied. I raised my head in panic to see the snake's yawning jaws descending towards me.
“No, please!" I cried out and raised my hands in a pointless effort to hold back his massive head. His jaws descended over my head and shoulders, and I felt the coils around me working my body upward as they forced me further into the snake's mouth. I tried to struggle, but the snake's inward pointing teeth scraped painfully against my back and chest. There was nothing I could do as I was pulled further into the snake's throat. Past the painfully sharp teeth, the feeling of his smooth slimy throat was almost soothing as it constricted tightly around me, and pulled me further down to the snake's stomach. The heat inside of the snake's body was intense. I heard the growl of the snake's stomach, the rushing of his blood and his thundering heartbeat. I gasped for air, but my throat burned. The slick walls constricted even tighter around me, and my consciousness faded.
The snake floated briefly in the pool, the bulge in its body slowly sliding towards its stomach. Diving underwater, the snake swam through a large opening at the bottom of the pool, and down a short tunnel. It re-emerged in another large chamber that was only accessible by the underwater tunnel. It slithered to a raised stone platform in the center of the room that was bathed in a beam of sunlight, and pulled his coils into a large heap. The snake sighed as it rested his head on the bulge in his sides, then closed his eyes. Slumber soon took him again, the length of which would depend on when the next intruder entered the temple.
