It had nearly a year since the hit game Nexus Wars had come out, and though for Dieter the idea of PvP combat wasn't something that interested them it was all their friends had been playing ever since they had gotten it. Even though they had received multiple friend codes it was still nothing that could convince them to try out the game despite being free... until the game announced an all new campaign. While it would take place with all the mechanics of the original experience, something that was stressed quite a bit in the advertisement, it would be something for those that enjoyed a different means of playing. Stranger still it was also free, and the combination was too much even for the lion to ignore.

The weekend that it had launched Dieter decided to discretely check it out, logging on to their account but keeping his status hidden so no one knew what they were doing. The last thing they needed was to try it out and find out they weren't a fan of it only to then be barraged with e-mails from their friends requesting to have them join their guild. Once they had downloaded the game, which included the new Chimera King expansion, they connected their VR headset and gloves to the computer. The screen inside the lenses showed the lion a loading screen followed by the title card for the game itself.

"Graphics are certainly nice," Dieter said to themselves as they waited for the cinematic that explained how the ten nexus creatures were vying for dominance of the entire realm. When that finished they were unceremoniously dumped into the welcome screen where it gave him the option to play Nexus Wars or the Chimera King campaign. When they selected the latter option they were informed that a profile needed to be set up despite being in the PvE section and was taken to a different screen.

What the lion saw next was a rather handsome rubber dragon with glowing red eyes staring back at him, his movements beckoning them to join his team. Beneath him was his name, which was apparently Renzyl, as well as a few special abilities that they would get should they choose them. Though they were quite intrigued they decided to scroll through the rest of the tend options. There were a lot of good ones, including a leather horse man named Santer that caught their eye, but eventually they settled on a robot bird that was named Haleon. It didn't really matter all that much to them anyway since it seemed most of the special abilities were for fighting other players, but as it sent them to another screen to pick the General they wanted to follow they decided to at least pick something they liked.

Just like Haleon himself these creatures all appeared to be mechanized avians as well, the first one being a raven or some type of black bird named Sare that represented their stealth division. After that there was a eagle that looked like a bodybuilder and one or two others before he finally found a robotic owl. "Kashi," Dieter found himself saying out loud as he clicked on the scholarly looking bird with red and white metal feathers that adorned his body. "Suppose that works, wouldn't mind being on Sare's team but not even sure of the stealth mechanics..."

Once those choices were finished, including where he picked his role as a cleric, Dieter was shifted to a different screen that showed a medieval castle surrounded by forests. It surprised the lion slightly that they weren't able to customize their own character, but they just assumed that they would either be able to tweak them later or that it didn't matter in such a game. As the camera zoomed into the grand hall of the castle it eventually rested at eye level and as soon as Dieter was able to move around they guessed it was more likely the latter since they were in a first-person point of view. Once they had gotten up to the king there was a bit of exposition before they were told to go out and conquer the Chimera King so that the kingdom may know peace once more.

After that there was a little bit more of a tutorial on how to do things before he was sent to the blacksmith to retrieve their gear. It also seemed to be the place where he could choose his weapon and armor loadout, getting a choice of a few different classes as well as the ability to tweak a few things. Not wanting to invest too much time into the choices they decided to go with the arcane archer build and suddenly found themselves in a scout uniform complete with cloak, a bow, and as they raised their hands they swore they could feel the crackling of energy in the palm of their hands. What startled them the most however was when they were asked if this was what they wanted and were shown a mirror, Dieter slightly startled to see their own reflection staring back at them.

At first they thought it might be a mistake or possibly data from their profile, but as they looked closer at the reflection they found themselves looking at their own face. How did the game manage to know what they looked like? As they pulled back certain aspects of their clothing they saw that everything looked like them almost exactly, save for a bit of distortion when they looked around. It was almost unnerving enough that they thought about stopping... but the next screen they saw was if they were ready to start the adventure and Dieter decided to at least see what the combat system was like.

There were three options after they had hit accept; join a party, create a party, and go solo. Since they were invisible at the moment it would be a dead giveaway if they decided to do either of the other two, so they decided to go solo instead. The start of the journey was fairly straightforward; go through the woods, defeat some bandits and forest creatures, and then eventually get to the next town. As they played the game however they were amazed at how smooth everything was, if they didn't know any better they might have assumed they were outside as they walked through the city to find a shop keeper to sell what they had found for gold.

Once they had gotten a pocket full of coin they decided to see what the next part of the quest was, only to find that the world had a number of side quests as well that would be posted at the tavern. When they went inside they found the building to be full of players as well as NPC's, something that surprised them since they thought that going alone meant a potentially open world. "I know that look," a voice said, Dieter not even realizing that he wasn't staring at the wall alone anymore as he glanced over to see a shark man standing next to him. "You just got started here and don't have a clue what's going on, am I right?"

"I suppose you could say that," Dieter replied, looking up to see the player's name hovering over the shark's head. "I'm just trying the game out really, didn't quite expect it to be so... immersive."

"Yeah, I can certainly understand that," the shark stated with a grin, pointing to one of the pieces of parchment. "If I was you I would go for this side-quest, it's pretty easy and you'll get your first piece of faction-specialized equipment."

Dieter looked at the paper that was being pointed at and saw that it was some sort of buried treasure side quest, finding a text that said he needed to find two parts of a key before digging up the chest itself. He thanked the shark man and pulled down the piece of parchment to accept the quest. When the shark asked if he wanted any company the lion turned him down graciously. While it might have been nice to be shown the ropes they were more interested in exploring on their own... plus the way the shark looked at him had caused them to pause. The aquatic creature merely shrugged his shoulders and said if he wanted to group once he was done that he would be at the tavern.

With quest in hand Dieter decided to check out a few of the NPC's and what else they could do in the tavern before heading for the marker. As the lion was about to leave they looked for the shark to see if they were around, only to find that he had disappeared. The feline just shrugged their shoulders and went back out into the main game world. Once they were out of the tavern they looked down to find that the parchment they had grabbed had turned into a map and compass that pointed them in the direction of potential riches.

***********************

An hour later Dieter found themselves on the beach, looking at the map that had appeared for them once they had gotten on the sand. While the graphics themselves were gorgeous, with the waves lapping against his feet that felt real, they were having a problem with the interface they were using in order to attempt to find this treasure. When they were looking around the beach the marker seemed to differ in its location as he attempted to get close to it. Every time they thought they were getting close the beacon that told him were the keys were would seemingly spread out even more and cause him to sigh slightly in frustration.

"Alright, I'm going to check behind that outcropping and then I'm done with this mini-quest," Dieter said as they followed yet another point on his map towards the small pile of rocks on the beach. One thing he noticed as they moved forward was that there weren't any enemies on this beach that he could fight either, perhaps this was some sort of safe area where new people could try out the exploration system? Perhaps that shark was an NPC or something like that after all, they thought to themselves as they carefully climbed over the rocks and landed on the other side onto the beach.

Once he had gotten his footing in the sand once more he looked up while brushing himself off, though he stopped when he saw a large bay surrounded by rocky cliffs that he had found himself standing on the edge of. What really got his attention however was the large wooden ship that was anchored in the middle of it, the bow pointed out to sea. It almost looked like a pirate ship, Dieter thought to themselves as they tried to see if there was any movement on it. Of course if that was a pirate ship there would have to be pirates, they reasoned, but since they didn't see any on there then they wondered where they could possibly be...

"Reach for the sky!" a familiar voice said, the lion quickly doing so as he heard the click of a gun behind him. "Looks like we got ourselves another one, what do you think?"

"I think that he looks a little scrawny," another voice joined the first, the both of them chuckling. "But we can certainly change that, he was nice enough to walk right into our lands. Turn around scallywag, let's take a good look at ye!"

Dieter slowly found themselves turning around to face the ones that had captured them, and though he did see the shark that had given him the quest in the first place there was something that seemed... off about him. Unlike when they had met in the tavern his body almost looked semi-translucent in nature, like he was made out of some sort of gel that glinted in the light of the sun. His counterpart, an orca that held a cutlass pointed right them, also had a similar look to him as the light seemed to pass through the black gel of his body while his stomach was actually completely clear instead of the usual white. Both of them were also dressed in pirate garb in case the way they talked wasn't an indicator as they told Dieter to move forward so that they could meet the captain of the ship.

As they walked along the rocky shore towards a small rowboat that bobbed up and down on the water the lion couldn't help but wonder if this was part of the game or something else. If this was some sort of quest it was quite intricately detailed and the pirates were amazingly lifelike, even responding to their questions when they asked what was going on, but something about the way the two talked and acted made them believe that they were real people. But if the shark and orca were real then would they actually be able to harm him? This was the PvE zone after all, which meant that they weren't supposed to be fighting one another as the three of them got into the boat and started to row towards the pirate ship.

After a few minutes of rowing they came up next to the much larger ship, the orca binding Dieter's hands with rope after they had climbed up the side to get onto the deck. The illusion of no one being on the vessel was quickly shattered as liquid creatures similar to the shark and orca rose up from barrels that were scattered around, forming into various creatures that looked at the lion with eager, hungry looks. "Captain on deck!" the orca said, those in various states of reformation immediately standing on attention as the door near the back of the ship opened.

Dieter's jaw dropped slightly at what came out of the captain's quarters, watching as a creature that looked like he was made of ink came slithering out on several legs that were essentially tentacles. Though the upper body of the goo creature was humanoid there were several more of the appendages that were attached to his muscular torso, and even his head had several that replaced his ears and nose area as he came forward. "Captain Kraken!" the orca once more said in an authoritative voice. "Our spy has brought in another to join us in our ranks!"

"A fine catch indeed!" The Captain replied, others on the crew making jeering remarks as well. "Now that our prey has come aboard this vessel I see no reason for us to remain here at this port, as pretty as it may be. Raise anchor and lower sails!"

The orca, which appeared to be the second in command, immediately got to work shouting orders at the others while Dieter continued to remain transfixed at the strange creature before him. "Mmmm, this one is greener than the mold on two-week old stew," Kraken said with a chuckle as his tentacles curled in the air, the ones that the lion guessed were his arms reaching out and pushing his chin up before moving his head around. "Where did you manage to find this one?"

"Tavern on the edge of the kingdom Captain," the shark replied with a grin. "Was a bit far, I know, but considering how he continued to follow the prompts for so long and how he's not... abandoning ship now means that he's probably a worthwhile candidate for what you want, right?"

Follow the prompts... that was definitely a game term, Dieter thought to themselves as he glanced over at the shark. If abandon ship meant logging out that meant that at the very least he was a player... and if he was then what were they doing capturing players like him? "Well he doesn't seem to have the skills useful for anything else," the Captain bolstered, bring Dieter's attention back to him. "Would be nice to have a new cabin boy however... very well, bring him into my quarters!"

Dieter felt themselves stumble forward slightly as they realized the shark had pushed him forward, prompting him to move towards the captain's cabin near the back of the ship. While part of them wanted to abandon ship as the shark had said there was a growing part of him that was getting curious on how this part of the game worked, especially since there had been no talk of factions or anything like that they could join. Perhaps they stumbled into a later part of the game by accident? But if that was the case why did the goo shark target them?

The questions continued to spin around in their head as he was brought inside the Captain's Quarters, which were very spacious and decorated in a manner that they expected of a pirate ship as he felt the binds around his wrist get cut loose. "Go ahead and have a seat Dieter," the goo Kraken said as he moved around the large desk at the back and sat down, the lion surprised at hearing their name. "I looked at your gamer profile while you were being brought up on the deck, and for the moment I want to just break the illusion of what's going on here so that you can be brought properly up to speed."

"I knew it!" Dieter exclaimed. "You are players, aren't you?"

"Indeed we are," Captain Kraken said with a chuckle. "We used to be a big part of the PvP servers as a guild underneath Athear's banner, but we decided we needed a bit of a break from all that and wanted to try out the new expansion. Of course we're not playing exactly by the rules... we managed to commander this pirate ship and haven't been told to give it back yet, so the powers that be must find it amusing enough to allow us to continue what we're doing."

"Plus after a while we found that we were actually gaining renown as a world enemy," the shark chimed in. "So we decided to keep up the act and recruit players that we capture, particularly people that were affiliated with Famjin since they have the whole aquatic theme that we're looking for. Strangely we can make them into goo creatures just fine and they still retain their forms, usually with Athear there's some sort of serpent quality that they take."

"I... what?" Dieter stated, shaking their head. "Sorry, I'm just new to all this and I have no idea what you're talking about."

"You'll learn as time goes on," Captain Kraken stated with a wink. "But for now let's cut with the OOC and get right back into character here, just wanted to let you know what's happening here. Enjoy yourself as part of the crew!"

That last part appeared to be more in-character then the rest of it as Dieter suddenly found himself staring down several rather large, inky tentacles that had started to slither around their body. Before they knew it they had several coiled around each limb as the lion found the texture to be more gel-like with firm pressure coming from each one. "As part of the articles of capture you will now serve us in any capacity we deem fit," Captain Kraken said as he pinned Dieter to the chair, wrapping several of the smaller ones around both their arms and the armrests and legs to pin them into place. "I can also see why my dear companion here picked you, one who flies underneath the banner of Haleon will have a proper fate here aboard my ship!"

Before Dieter could say anything they suddenly found the face of Captain Kraken right in front of his, and as his mouth dropped open slightly in shock he suddenly found the small beak that made up the mouth of the creature open wide and his tongue pushed into their maw. The lion felt every muscle in their body tense up as the other tentacles ripped away his robe, Dieter hearing a notification that he had just dropped some sort of equipment as their furry body became completely naked. All that the feline could do was let out a muffled grunt as the appendage pushed down deeper into their maw before it started to press against his throat. With the tongue being goo and this being a game there was no gag reflex or choking, though he swore he could actually feel it wiggling around inside of him as it slid over his tongue where they tasted... rum?

Dieter found themselves gurgling as the thick arms of the Kraken wrapped around his waist, leaving the smaller ones to play with their chest and particularly their nipples to cause them to squirm from the sensations. With his upper body completely pinned the ones around their legs lifted them up, the captain eager to get to work as the lion glanced down. Though their own cock was starting to get aroused the sight of their half-hard member was second to the thick maleness that belonged to the captain. It was at least three times the size of their own and as they watched it wiggle in the air it was clearly as prehensile as the rest of the appendages of his body.

At this point it was hard for Dieter to see where their body was with the tentacles squirming over every inch of their body, especially as several smaller ones came and began to slide up and down his member to give him even more pleasure. While the lion knew this game was adult in nature they had no idea that it was this lewd, especially as the tongue inside of them began to push in and out of their throat. Though they knew in the back of their mind they could just order a log-out mentally Dieter found his own lust starting to rise and mixing with their curiosity, remaining the captain's captive as they heard movement going on behind them.

"Captain likes having all he converts able to see him work," the shark said with a smirk as he put a mirror in front of the desk, Dieter seeing their naked body completely wrapped in tentacles with his throat bulging from the tongue inside it while nearly every inch of their form was being massaged. "Fun should be beginning any second soon for you, can't wait to see what he does to you."

Dieter wondered what more could possibly happen to them with a surge of pleasure in their groin caused them to look at themselves in the mirror. As his hips bucked up from the sudden stimulation they were getting they could see that something was happening to his member, and as though wanting them to see what was happening the tendrils that had been stimulating them the entire time backed away to show what was happening. Their eyes widened when they saw that not only were they fully erect but the flesh of his glistening member looked... shinier than usual. As Dieter continued to watch they realized that the source of their intense bliss was coming from the fact that not only was it growing bigger before their eyes but also becoming a semi-translucent sea-foam green as well!

As their body continued to shudder from the spasms of pleasure coming from the transformation Dieter found the tentacle tongue inside of them withdrawing from their throat. Before it completely pulled out of them it suddenly coiled around his own, which had become numb after being pushed around by it for the entire time. Dieter let out a gurgle as they found their mouth opening wide, watching in shock as it pulled back while feeling his own tongue stretching out from it. When it finally let go it had gained nearly a foot in length, the entire thing transformed into bright blue goo as it flopped out of their feline muzzle and hung there.

"You sticking your tongue out at me?" Captain Kraken said, Dieter finding themselves slurping it back up before looking at them. "Good, first rule of being a pirate is never disrespectin your captain, you got that?"

Though Dieter wasn't quite sure about wanting to be a pirate it appeared that the captain had plans for them to be one, as well as what they were going to look like as he felt something pushing between their cheeks. The cock of the goo kraken had been pressed against them for so long they had almost forgotten it was there, at least until it had started to push inside. Just like his own member it was clear the flesh there had been transformed as well, especially when the tentacles wrapped around their thighs lifted them for a better view in the mirror. Their tailhole was a bright blue and definitely gooey as the ink cock pushed inside, Dieter's eyes bulging form their heads as they were stretched open wide from the penetration.

"You're already starting to make a fine creature," Captain Kraken complimented, Dieter unable to respond as tendrils of goo began to slither out past their lips and nose as they felt their muzzle getting pushed out and molded into something different. "But while you're body is progressing along nicely I still don't see the pirate's gleam in your eyes! Don't worry though, Captain Kraken has a way to make sure you fall into place without having to train you."

It was hard for Dieter to respond as the tentacle cock was quickly sliding inside of them, pushing the goo further up and causing their furry stomach to bulge from the mass. They could feel their insides starting to liquidate as they were being transformed from the inside out, his chest already shifting and bulging from the ooze inside of it that was deposited by the kraken's tongue. As he saw the Captain opening his maw again they thought that it was going to be more of the same, this time plunging into the goo beak that their feline muzzle had become. As the tongue wavered in the air however the lion suddenly felt their head get turned to the side by several tentacles, his new beak getting one of them wrapped around it as the goo tongue probed inside a different opening.

Even though their mind was inundated with pleasure coming from the cock plunging deep inside their hole and their own transforming member he still nearly jumped as the tentacle tongue began to push into his ear. Though the pressure caused Dieter to flinch the goo found itself slowly slipping inside of their skull, the flesh being assimilated as it did in order to provide easier access. It was a sensation that the lion had never even thought of having before and as the ink began to ooze into their skull it only seemed to intensify the pleasure. All they could do was watch the bizarre sight of the goo tentacle pushing into him, blackness creeping into their eyes as his mind became flooded with new information and sensations.

A sailor... that was what Dieter had always wanted to be, remembering their time sitting on the beach gazing forlornly at the sea. New memories started to overlap old ones as the goo continued to seep into his brain, like the captain was rewriting the backstory of their character as their face continued to become deformed and misshapen. As they continued to stare into the mirror to watch their tan fur transform into blue and green goo Dieter suddenly remembered meeting Captain Kraken and his crew years later, or rather watching the manly creatures celebrating in the distance. They were the pinnacle of freedom and masculinity, and it was something they had wanted for so long.

It was only when Dieter had mustered the courage to talk to the Captain that they realized they could have such a thing, that the kraken could mold him into the perfect pirate. They had spent years on the ship learning the ropes, building their knowledge of the ship as well as muscle on their body. Meanwhile the crew had showed them the proper way to carry themselves, using their strength to carry a new sense of swagger. When it was night and there was little to do they also showed them how the crew properly bonded with one another, more than once finding a goo cock stuffed in their maw and tailhole.

It was today that Dieter was finally getting the body that they... no, that he wanted. A powerful, masculine form that would strike awe in those that looked upon him as he felt his goo cock grow even longer. The lust that was being fed into him through his new body only spurred his transformation further, the chair he was sitting on creaking and groaning as he absorbed everything that the captain gave him, body and mind. His eyes were pitch black at this point as his ears melted into his head, turning to goo as he let out a squawk from the tentacle tongue inside his head pushing out of his other ear to waggle in the air briefly before it was retracted.

"Oh, thank you Captain!" Dieter proclaimed as his muscles stretched and grew, his body turning completely translucent to the point he could see the black tentacle wiggling inside of him underneath his washboard abs. "Make me your crew! Make me your parrot!"

"I already have, ya silly bird!" Captain Kraken exclaimed, letting out a hearty laugh along with the shark watching while stroking himself off as the last of Dieter's leonine form was completely converted to the muscular goo parrot man that he believed he had begged to be. Dieter let out a loud caw of pure euphoria as both he and the captain whose tentacles were wrapped around him came at the same time, a cloud of black seed erupting inside of him as the new parrot passed out, unaware of the ink traveling up towards his arm...

Part 2:

When Dieter awoke again he felt his body swaying back and forth in the darkness, hearing the creak of wood and the sound of water as his mind tried to catch him up to where he was. When he looked down he saw the floor was much further away from him then usual as he continued to rock from side to side, though what caught his attention more was his bright blue, gooey, bird-like feet that were attached to his body. He had felt... different since he had opened his eyes, and when he examined himself as best as he could he saw that the blue and green goo had completely replaced his entire body, which didn't look feline at all anymore. As he put his hands to his face he felt his new beak and suddenly remembered that he had asked to become one of Captain Kraken's crew... or did he? And if that was the case, why was he in a steel cage that was hanging from the rafters.

"I see you've finally come around," a voice said, Dieter turning around to see the orca from before standing there holding a lantern. "I hope you don't mind the accommodations but the captain thought that it would be fitting for a parrot such as yourself to be in one. Considering that your mind is about as gooey as your body it also keeps you from wandering around too much in confusion until it gets settled again."

"My... mind..." Dieter said as he looked down, the events in the captain's cabin coming crashing back on him with force as his body shuddered from the pleasure of the memory. "That's right, he stuck his tongue in my head and I started remembering all this stuff that didn't happen!"

"Yeah, it can definitely be a bit disorienting," the orca replied as he pulled on one of the ropes, lowering the cage so that the two were more eye-level with one another while Dieter still found himself above the floor. "My name's Daedalus, but everyone calls me Dae because I'm pretty sure they can't remember that long of a name. I'm the second in command of the Kraken's Glory, which makes me your superior in every way except for the captain himself, got it?"

"Yes sir!" Dieter replied, standing at attention for a second before realizing what he was doing and looking at himself. "Whoa... that was... interesting."

"Part of that training you got from the captain," the orca said with a chuckle. "It seems like your attuning nicely though, so why don't we go ahead and get you out of that thing so you can stretch your wings a bit?"

At first Dieter thought Dae had meant stretching his legs, but as the cage door was opened and he hopped down to the floor he suddenly felt muscles he didn't know he had flex and his wings flare out. He found himself having a problem retracting them and the orca watched with bemused interest as the goo parrot fumbled about slightly before they finally got them folded back into position where he could exit the door without having them bump into something. When they left the room both of them jumped down into what Dieter presumed was the bottom of the ship. He could almost hear the water rushing past the hull as they walked towards a set of stairs that led up.

"So how long have you been part of this... um, crew?" Dieter asked while they made their way through the admittedly large ship, other goo creatures nodding to them as they passed by.

"Oh, I was part of those that founded this little slice of heaven," Dae replied. "When we first took over the ship and became pirates we were just having a bit of fun, but it turns out that we were not only very into it but good enough that we could continue without any pushback from the game itself. After a while we even found we could take roles and get bonuses from them, along with abilities like the captain converting new crew members like yourself."

The sudden forth wall break jarred Dieter to remember that he was actually in a game... or was he? Even before he had woken up in the brig of the ship things were starting to feel a little too real, and until he was reminded he could feel the pirate persona that he had been given taking root inside of him. Though it was hard to believe the goo parrot began to realize that he wasn't just some lion playing a game on a headset anymore and that somehow the game had sucked him into it in a most literal fashion. If that was the case then what had happened to him in the real world? Was he now some sort of non-player character in a game played by others that weren't caught by this pirate crew?

When he brought up his concerns to the orca he nearly stopped dead in his tracks, turning back to look at the parrot. "You really are new to this, aren't you?" Dae stated, Dieter sheepishly nodding his head. "Well come on then, I believe lunch is almost ready and Markas made his famous stew. Let's grab you a bowl and I can tell you exactly what you've gotten yourself into."

About an hour later Dieter sat staring at the orca with a dumbfounded expression on his face, two empty wooden bowls between them as he was processing both the food he ate and the information he had been given. "So Nexus Wars not only fully immerses players by bringing them into a different realm but transforms its players into the avatars," Dieter repeated, the orca nodding in reply. "Amazing, so I can go back home but I'm going to be a goo parrot?"

"Pretty much," Dae stated. "Considering that you changed in the first place and are still here despite the ability to log out it means that at least some part of you is into it, we can't even see players that don't have adult settings turned on and those that don't seem to be fond of these aspects of the game can't even seem to interact with us. Trust me, some of the crew here has gone on some pretty extensive journeys of self-discovery after we captured and converted them, though not all stayed."

"They didn't?" Dieter asked. "So I can leave?"

"If you want after the cooldown," Dae stated, pointing to his arm where a tattoo of a stylized kraken was on his bicep. Dieter wasn't quite sure of what he was trying to get at until he looked at his own arm and was shocked to see a similar one in the same position. "When the captain changed you he marked you too to be part of the crew, so you do have to stay with us for a little bit. If you truly wish to leave the tattoo will fade rather quick and you can teleport yourself back to dry land, though you're going to have to find some means to turn yourself back into a lion or whatever you wanted to be."

Though his mind was still buzzing with the information that multiple dimensions were real and that he was in one Dieter found himself understanding things more clearly. It also gave him a chance to appreciate his new body, something he hadn't done ever since his initial examination while in a giant bird cage. Like the rest of the crew including the orca sitting across the table despite being made of goo his body was firm and sculpted to radiate that of a manly pirate... even if that pirate was a parrot. Though his physique was well-built the others were even more ripped then he was, something that Dae stated was a perk of being higher up in the food chain after being asked.

Just as Dieter thought of other questions to ask the orca they suddenly heard a bell ringing on the top deck, something that caused both of them to look at one another before scrambling to the deck of the ship. The goo parrots newly implanted instincts from the captain told him that the bell meant impending danger and for everyone to head to the top deck, and when he did with the others he saw why it was being rung. There was another ship that was coming towards them, quickly slicing through the waters of the open sea. Though Dieter felt a pang of nervousness he saw the captain at the wheel looking at the ship with a smile on his face before collapsing his spyglass.

"It's the Emerald Tide!" Captain Kraken exclaimed gleefully as his tentacles grabbed onto the wheel and turned it so suddenly that it caused the boat to shift, Dieter losing his balance slightly while the others leaned into the sway. "Everyone to stations! Ready main cannons and put sails at half-mast!"

The entire crew of the ship suddenly began to scramble, everything moving in organized chaos as they got to their stations in order to ready for battle. Dieter found himself on the rigging with several others, drawing up their sails as the two ships bore down on one another at a healthy clip. Captain Kraken continued to remain at the help while Dae barked more orders, shouting at those to ready the cannons that if they weren't loaded by the first pass he was going to load them into it so they were good for something. As Dieter continued to remain on the ropes he could see the crew on the other side doing the same thing, and though he couldn't see it he could sense that this was a ship that was occupied by other players as well.

After getting a quick primer on how to summon his weapons Dieter found himself with a musket in his hands, the others doing the same as the ships crew close to one another. As the bows passed by there was an eerie silence from both sides, the creatures on the other side mostly made of rubber and were reptilian in nature as they remained ready as well. The ships passed within mere feet of one another before Captain Kraken shouted to fire, the one at the helm on the other side saying the same thing. The silence was shattered as every gun and cannon on both ships went off at the same time, Dieter nearly getting knocked backwards from the force of their guns on the side of the ship along with the cannonballs peppering against one another's hulls.

One of the bullets from the other side stuck Dieter in his shoulder just as they were about to completely clear one another, the parrot looking at his chest as instead of the hole he was expecting he saw something shiny and black spreading over him. "Rubber bullets?" the parrot said, looking at in question. "Am I... what's..."

"Just a flesh wound," Dae said as Dieter felt the orca's hand on his shoulder, seeing the first mate looking him over. "No need to heal just yet, but if you take a few more and it starts to spread don't keep it to yourself, last thing I need is a rubber parrot squawking around attacking us saying how great Renzyl is."

"Wait!" Dieter said as the ships turned to fire at one another, the orca already moving on. "Which one is Renzyl again?"

"The rubber one!" another crew member shouted, the others laughing before the Captain barked at them to pay attention and ready another attack. With the initial pass completed the cannons fired whenever they had a shot, cannon balls streaking by as they fired on each other. It was so chaotic Dieter was having a hard time keeping track of what was going on, though whenever it was announced that the sails needed adjustment he did as his captain was ordered. If he still had a heart it would be pounding in his chest with all the excitement as the two ships were about to pass one another for a strafing run again.

There was another announcement to fire and Dieter managed to shoot his own rifle before he ducked down as a cannonball whizzed by his head. While it didn't hit him it did slam into the back of the orca that was behind him, knocking him clear off the ship and into the waters below. Dieter felt panic rise up in his chest as he shouted there was a man overboard, his pirate instincts kicking into full gear as an idea came to mind. He took one of the rigging ropes that were coiled up on the deck and tied one end to the mast and another around his waist before diving into the water after the orca.

The sudden sensation of cold water surrounding the goo parrot shocked the creature for a few seconds, but as he saw the partially rubber-covered goo orca slowly sinking down into the water he quickly swam down to grab him. He wasn't sure if the crew mate could even survive a direct cannon ball to the face but he didn't care as he managed to wrap his arms around his chest and kick back to the surface, both of them gasping as Dae regained consciousness just as they got their heads into the air. Behind them both ships had continued to blast one another as they remained side by side, several of each crew jumping onto the other as the fierce sea battle continued.

"Shouldn't have done that," Dae said as he coughed, black rubber leaking out of his mouth into the water. "Can already feel the corruption setting in, there's no way that we're going to get back to the ship in time for me to heal. Sorry man, looks like we're both switching crews sooner then we thought... it's a shame that-"

"Hey, be quiet for a second!" Dieter squawked, the parrot still watching the rope connected to him letting out slack from its coil. "I'm trying to concentrate here..."

Though it was hard to tell as the two bobbed up and down in the water Dieter used his new nautical knowledge to know right when he needed to kick hard, taking some of the rope and securing it around the orca too before he did. As the rope suddenly went taut from the fast-sailing ship the goo parrot got as much of his body out of the water as he could with his legs while opening his wings at the same time. The second the wind caught them combined with the speed of the ship they were attached to both creatures suddenly felt their bodies get jerked upwards, but instead of being dragged behind the ship the parrot soared up into the air with Dae in tow. Dieter felt his breath get taken away as he realized his plan worked, both of them soaring over the two ships as he angled his wings to try and get closer to their own.

Despite the loss of two crew it appeared that the Kraken's Glory had gotten the upper hand, the Emerald Tide trailing off as its bow began to tip towards the sea itself. As the enemy ship sank Dieter dived towards the deck of the ship as he felt the orca starting to squirm beneath him, hearing a low moan coming from the male as the rubber was quickly overwhelming his form. When he got close enough he summoned his knife and cut the lead that connected them together and let Dae drop to the deck where the others had gathered him to watch before crashing to the wood himself. While flying appeared to be natural landing on a moving ship was not and the parrot found himself tumbling head over heels to the edge before someone snagged the rope tied to him before he went overboard himself.

There was a shout for the medic, a manta ray man coming over and immediately disappearing in the crowd of crew that had gathered around where Dieter had dropped the orca. "He's going to be just fine," Captain Kraken said as he came up behind the goo parrot, Dieter feeling several of the tentacles coiling around him while he stood next to him. "With the ship sank and its crew disbanded the influence of the Emerald Tide is leaving this area. Once they see he's fine they're going to have one thing on the brain after a battle like this."

Um... one thing?" Dieter repeated, feeling one of the gooey ink tentacles sliding between his legs as he found himself swallowing hard. "What's that?"

"Why treasure, of course!" Captain Kraken stated with a loud, bellowing laugh. "I have my navigator bringing us to where the Emerald Tide sank, a ship like that tends to have its hulls bursting with swag and now it'll be ours for the taking! Of course nothing gets a pirate friskier then treasure, so there will be plenty of... celebration happening after we gather up everything."

Dieter's beak opened slightly as the kraken gave him a wink before going over to the crowd and shouting at them that the manta had everything taken care of, causing the goo creatures to scramble as they were told to get ready to collect the goods that would come from the sunken ship. It appeared that there was no need to order him to do anything as the others were more than eager to get down there and fish out the spoils of their victory. It was definitely strange, but as the goo parrot wandered over to the side of the ship that had the loot floating next to it he found himself licking his own lips as well...

Eventually Dieter found himself taking off his headset in the real world, sighing loudly as his body still tingled with the sensations that had come with the party he had with the crew after gathering all the treasure. It was a night filled with rum, music, and some very carnal acts that made him surprised he wasn't sore as he got up from the chair that he had been reclining in this entire time. When he looked over at the clock on his nightstand he was surprised to find that only a few hours had passed; it had at least been an entire day, if not two, in the game world that he had immersed himself in. He wasn't even tired by it, in fact he felt more invigorated then ever and would have kept playing if they hadn't harbored for the night as he got up and stretched his wings...

His wings... Dieter stopped mid-flex as he realized that something felt very familiar and yet not at the same time, slowly looking down to see that his feline form was well and truly gone, replaced with the semi-translucent, muscular goo body of a pirate parrot. "It's true..." Dieter said as he brushed his hands over the feathers of his head and neck, feeling his tongue wrap around his beak as the initial panic he felt was replaced with an admiration as he flexed his arms in front of himself to watch the gelatinous muscle bulge. "I mean, there are certainly worse things I could have turned into then this."

A sudden ring of his doorbell cut his self-examination short as he realized that none of his clothes would fit his new body and even if they did there was no such thing as a goo parrot in this world. As Dieter racked his brain on what to do he did remember Dae saying something about people in the real world not really perceiving them. While he wasn't sure whether or not that meant clothes as well he didn't know, but as he heard the doorbell ring more insistently he either had to give it a shot or ignore it. In the end he went over to the door and, after deciding to grab a nearby towel to cover himself, carefully opened it to see who it was.

"Permission to come aboard?" the goo orca on the other side said with a grin, the creature just as naked as he was after Dieter dropped the towel in shock. "Man, I wish I had that impression on everyone I visited."

"Oh, I just... I mean..." the parrot said in a slightly flustered voice as he tossed the towel aside and stepped back. "Permission granted, I mean."

"Thanks," Dae stated as he walked in, the door quickly closing behind him as he looked around. "Nice place you got, just wanted to stop by and not only help acclimate yourself to the real world as a Nexus Wars player but also thank you."

"Thank me?" Dieter replied, causing Dae to chuckle.

"You're sounding more and more like a parrot," the orca said, causing Dieter to grow flushed with slight embarrassment. "While I know it's a part of the game it would have sucked if I had to switch crews, especially with how long I've been a part of Kraken's crew and as the second in command no less. While I would have found a means to come back eventually they probably would have put someone else in my place and I would have had to end up a cabin boy like you, and since we were all having quite a bit of fun with the crew during the party I decided to wait until later to give you a reward."

"A rew-" Dieter didn't have the chance to finish his question as the orca came up to him and kissed him, the firm gel of their bodies rubbing frictionless against one another as the parrot suddenly found himself with a beak full of tongue. He quickly found himself reciprocating the gesture, his wings fluttering slightly as the bigger male began to rub against him and grope underneath his tail feathers before finally breaking the embrace. "Oh..."

The orca just smirked at him as he asked where the bedroom was, Dieter feeling his feathers ruffle in arousal and anticipation as he pointed the way. He found himself getting led there and when they got to the bed he let out a squawk as the impressively strong male took him and tossed him onto the bed. "You may have saved me," Dae said with a lustful smirk as he crawled on the bed as well. "But I'm still the first mate, do you have a problem with that cabin boy?"

"N-not at all!" Dieter found himself saying, his own beak turned up in a wide smile as the orca crawled up to him.

"Good," the orca replied. "Because until the night is over I'm going to be rocking your ship."

Once more the two goo creatures kissed as Dieter found his legs getting spread apart, the smooth hand of the orca rubbing up and down his groin to tease him. At first the parrot thought that they were going straight to it, but the other male had another idea as he leaned his head down and began to lick against the sensitive flesh of the parrot gel cock. Dieter's fingers gripped the bed as attention was paid down there for the first time since he had transformed, feeling it thicken in the maw of the orca that had already started to bob up and down his admittedly impressive length. It was like everything he had experienced before was dialed up to eleven as he felt his body squirm under the expert tongue and mouth of the male between his legs.

"Oh Dae..." Dieter found himself saying as his hips began to roll upwards, pushing himself even deeper into the mouth of the other male until something else began to press against the tip of it. "Your throat... goo creatures are definitely... flexible."

Dae just let out a grunt as he continued to lavish attention on Dieter's entire crotch, the thick tongue of the orca also licking past the base of his cock when he completely deep-throated him and licking between his legs. It caused the parrot to moan and squawk more than once as the other goo creature quickly rose him to the point of orgasm, Dieter clutching the sheets of his bed as all the heightened pleasure came crashing down around him. Never in his life did he think that he would be a pirate goo parrot being blown by a pirate goo orca in his own bed, yet as Dae continued to suck on him to get every last release from him he couldn't think of his life any other way anymore.

Once Dieter had sufficiently recovered from his blissful experience Dae informed him it was time to return the favor, this time sliding up even further so their pectorals and washboard abs could rub together while he reached down and grabbed his own thick cock. When Dieter saw it briefly next to his own he realized just how well endowed the orca was, though he knew that his own flexible tailhole would take care of it he still found himself shivering slightly as the head of it pressed against him. "As you said, one nice thing about being a goo creature," the orca whispered as he pushed forward and Dieter gasped from feeling inch after inch slide into him relentlessly. "Extremely flexible."

Dieter found himself panting as Dae was relentless, his mouth once more against his beak as he felt himself get completely stuffed by the male on top of him. If his wings hadn't been pinned behind his back they would have been flapping on the bed, though the weight of the other creature on top of him kept him from wiggling too much either as he felt the orca's fingers twine around his. While the initial insertion was a tailhole-stretching burst of pleasure it was clear that his partner was not looking for anything quick; once he had gotten completely hilted inside of him he slowly began to pull out to the point where it was causing the parrot to nearly constantly shivering from the pleasure.

A pirate this passionate and sensual, it was almost as mind-blowing as feeling his abs bulging up every time the orca completely pushed inside of him. Not only that but the orca continued to stroke and caress him with those hands to give him more stimulation that caused him to clamp down on the thick cock inside of him. As the two looked at one another they gave one another a genuine smile, though it only lasted for a few seconds until Dae once more thrusted his hips forward. This pirate definitely knew how to pleasure a guy, Dieter thought to himself as he wrapped his arms and legs around the toned form of the other man.

As promised the two continued like that for hours, the stamina of their new bodies unfaced as they switched positions multiple times, eventually with Dieter on all fours Dae thrusted into his tailhole from behind. "One thing I love about translucent creatures like you," the orca said as he rubbed against the bump formed by his cock on the parrot's abs. "I can literally watch myself fucking you."

"I noticed that," Dieter said between pants, even though he didn't need to breathe he found himself still doing so. "What else could these bodies possibly do?"

"You have no idea," Dae replied, prompting the parrot to shift position again so that they were both laying on their sides while the orca kept his cock inside the goo creature so that their heads were next to one another while he kept the parrot's leg lifted for easy access. "Of course you could... if you keep on with our crew. I noticed that tattoo of yours is still going strong."

Even with the haze of lust from their all-night session and the orca still sliding in and out of him Dieter looked over at his arm that was bracing his head and saw the kraken tattoo was still as clear and present as ever. "I guess I do," he replied simply, Dae slowing down his thrusts so that they could talk while he still continued to pound the parrot's tailhole. "Looks like I might belong to Captain Kraken after all... though if that's going to be the case I'm probably going to need a pirate name or something, I don't think Dieter quite cuts it in a world like that."

"I think a handsome stud like you would be a proud addition to the crew no matter what your name," Dieter replied, causing the parrot to blush as they leaned in for a kiss. "But I think you're right... how about Griffin? I think it's quite fitting given your backstory."

"Huh... pitrate Griffin," Dieter replied, a smile slowly growing on his beak. "I think I like it, just like I like you."

As the two began to more passionately make out, Dae increasing his thrusts while starting to stroke the hard cock of the male in time with them, Dieter began to imagine his persona as a goo pirate parrot sailing the high seas. It was definitely something to bring him back to the game, especially with the added benefit of having a second in command that could ride him all night long. If this was the case, the parrot thought to himself, he was going to have to try and save his life more often. As he took one last look at his tattoo before once more being shifted to lying flat on his stomach for Dae to pound straight down into him he wondered if Captain Kraken could give him a similar one of an orca beneath it...
