She could still here it somewhere in the foliage behind her, the large giant, growling. She could hear it breathing heavily and that was a relief knowing that it's stamina wasn't inexhaustable but it had several things going for it, such as his two companions. One, a smaller red scaled thing had leathery wings, the reptile was about half her height but no doubt the swiftest of the bunch. Had it been in an opened area it would have no doubt caught her by now but it had to navigate the trees and other obstacles. Plus seeing into the forest from lofty heights, even with his acute vision was impossible.

Slar, she heard the large one refer to it as Slar. 'Slar, what do you see?' Evidentally little more than a lake and a cascading waterfall, oh and there were the other students in her class in the opposite direction but not one of the trio seemed concerned about the distant students. It was rare that they corralled one student by herself but that was what fate gave to them this day and they took it.

The third companion of the bunch was probably the scariest. It was tall, six and a half feet Pia reckoned but it did not possess skin but rather a muddy bark. It's only facial feature had been blue glowing eyes and it's hair which was leafy.

It could walk through one tree ande transport itself to another, and as Pia learned he ... it ... could control plants as vegetation fought with her, tried to grasp at her though fortunately they had not been strong enough to hold her in place, slow her down, yes, but not hold her.

Her arms and legs consisted of a plethora of scratches and Pia could hear the deep rumblings of the tanned skinned giant. It was about a story in height, fairly wide too, so navigating the forest was difficult for him. She could only imagine that it relied on the others to gather up prey seeing that it was not as nimble as the others.

"Come out, come out, where ever you are girlie," it snorted as it crashed through the undergrowth.

"I don't believe that will work, Thud."

"Shudup, Birch! Slar, where did she go?"

A smaller voice nipped in. "North, she's nearing the lake the last glimpse I caught of her, she's not too far. She can't keep this up either, the trees begin to thin out up ahead so I'll see her."

"What if she doubles back?"

"The plants will tell me."

"Alright, north it is." Crash, crash, crash, crash ....

Pia's chest was burning with each breath. She had been running so hard, several times she had been sure she would collapse then and there. Only pure adrenaline had kept her going, even if it felt like her hearth would break.
Her skin felt like it was burning where branches and twigs had lashed her. She wished she had been wearing above knees, those would have protected her somewhat at least.

What to do, what to do?

The conversation had been enlightening. Not only could the barky one, Birch, turn plants against her. They could talk back. That limited her options considerably. She had been hoping to loose them in the forest, then sneak back. That wasn't an option any more. That left bolting towards the lake. If she could reach it, than maybe.. Maybe it would help. Pia would be out of the reach of the plants. Hopefully, the large one was not a fast swimmer. Pia was a good swimmer, excellent, in fact. That left the little one.

If she could reach the lake at all. Before then she had to evade more branches, and she would no doubt be spotted by the red one, Slar.

She could stay. That was an option. But not for long. Birch would find her. She was terrified of Birch. One her language, it would be Bjørk. Such a gentle, feminine name. Nothing gentle or feminine about this one. It scared her the most, even if being raped by the giant would hurt more.

Did the vegetation around her move? Yeah, it did. Almost imperceptibly, leaves shifted. Were they sensing her? Searching for her? She was sure they did. Homing in on her, even.

She willed herself quiet. Waited for her breath to even out. Tried to get an angle on the direction of the heavy footsteps. Slowly, painstakingly slowly she stood up. Then she swiftly darted away from the thunderous footsteps, trying to not touch anything green unless she had to.

She ran forward, the sound of dried leaves being crushed under foot were unheard against the crashing of the giant that plunder forward. Slar had not spotted her yet as she arched across the terrain towards the lake, if she could reach it her ability to swim was the strongest among the quartet.

The giant sank, he did not swim, Slar flew and had no affinity for water and Birch avoided such places simply stepping through one tree and emerging elsewhere to get around such hazards when they presented themselves.

But there was another being nearby, one at the lake, that perked up when feeling Pia's familiar brainwaves. Aegir could pick her up, and a pair of other life forms. He did not sense Birch, his brainwaves functioning differently then others.

Sensing that Pia was under duress, Aegir could easily work out what was going on. While Pia was not under his protection he did arrange a deal with her, and thus he was moved to protect his investiment. Oh, he supposed that she would not be damaged to badly but what was to say that she wouldn't stumble and break her arm, delaying her from working on his book. Nothing assured him that this would not occur so he breached the surface of the lake.

He squinted at the harsh rays of sunlight that prevented him from traveling too far today though he swam to the shore. Once there he had begun to head in the direction that he sensed all this activity in.

As Pia dashed forward she heard a screech from the air behind her. Slar had spied her at last, the red scaled lizard thing pressing forward on the warm currents of air, his pace quick as he closed the distance. But to make matters worse something was birthed out of one of the trees in front of her.

Birch, emerging from it, he looked left, then right before he spied her, Slar swooping downward upon her as he knelt down, touch the earth and send a tremor though the ground at her, the earth rising and splitting in places as it came at her.

Pia's legs were moving like drumsticks. Do not look! Do not look! She was chanting to herself as she ran. She had spied Slar just as he dove for her, a red raptor against the skies. Either she would reach the relative safety of the nearest trees, or her only hope was to dodge the winged creature. Right now fear drove her forward, but the diving creature was getting closer.

She dared a look behind her shoulder, she needed to see if she she should dive for the ground. The red comet was closing in. Pia prepared to give one last effort, to seek cover under the nearest tree. She did not see Birch, not until it was too late. She did not see him kneel down. She did not see the movement of the ground before it was too close.

The very earth shifted and tossed. The first tremor made Pia loose her balance, already a devastating blow, and on it's own enough to make sure she would have ended up on the ground. Even as Pia stumbled, the ground bucked underneath her, with enough force to make her briefly airborne. With her momentum, she was still moving forward pretty fast. She managed to roll with the fall as she hit the ground, avoiding any real injuries.

Pia forced herself up on all fours, ready to get up fully, but not daring to as she was unsure the earth had stopped. It was then she found that she was right in front of Birch.

Plants reached up from the earth like tiny hands coiling around her legs and wrists. Roots for the most part that extended outward from the earth, Birch gazing down at her as he stepped forward slowly as he gazed at her.

Hands gripped her hips as Slar's reptilian fingers coursed over her. He was closer than she had believed, He had landed and approached amongst the crashes of Thud. She could feel clawed fingers taring into her shirt, shredding the fabric there.

Birch moved forward, more roots pouring out of the earth at his compunction. He gazed upon her with those eerie eyes of his as he reached towards her chin with a barky hand, gripping at her chin and holding her head upward.

"Hold her in place for Thud."

"It will take him forever to get here ... we should at least start a bit of fun and he can join in later when he gets here Birch."

Small hands caressed down her sides as more roots sprang from the earth like a stream, closing around her breasts, closing upon them and squeezing after her shirt was torn open at the front by various roots. All the while the crashing growing closer in her ears.

Tears, transparent liquid pearls formed in the corners of Pia's eyes. It had all been in vain. All her efforts, all her struggles.. She could just as well had lain down on the ground and waited for them back up in the woods. She pulled as hard as she could against the roots pinning her in place. At first it seemed they might yield a little, loosen a little from the earth. But it is hard to pull living plants out of the ground, and she did little but to offer her captors the view of a groaning and struggling female.

The red ones' little hands were all over her, getting a fine feel of her feminine curves. Her shirt was ruined already. Now vines were groping her breasts, tugging at the lacy bra, coiling around soft orbs like little constrictor snakes. And meanwhile, the giant was closing in.

She kind of hoped the little devil and the monstrous treeman would take their fun first. Maybe the giant did not like sloppy seconds.

"P-please.. I just want to go home.. just don't hurt me and I'll do it.. don't let the giant.."

Pia was babbling. She could almost feel the earth trembling with the large footsteps.

"..no,no,no no.. Please..no.."

"Hear that, Birch, she doesn't like Thud. Too bad for you honey! He's on his way and when he gets his hands on you it will hurt. In the meantime you might as well just relax." Red hands pressed upon her breasts over the constricting roots, giving a squeeze with his clawed hands before tugging her bra down so that his fingers draped against her nipples, rubbing them in little circles.

While he did this Birch came closer, he gazed down at her struggling form, his emotions hard to gauge since his face was so rigid. His left hand twisted, transforming into long roots, roots that swept beneath her body to caress against the insides of her thighs, another long root-like appendage sliding out of a hole in his barky skin where his groin was, whipping at her, lashing against her lips, his right hand closing around the back of her head to draw it forward so that the root would part her lips.

What a fine situation you managed to get yourself in.

There was no speaker of those words but rather she heard them in her head. Aegir may not have had a visual on her yet but he could sense her mind an ultimately that allowed him to process her thoughts. He came along slithering at his slow pace.

Normally I do not bother with other monsters or their business. Well, there is Goro, but I dislike him. Did you know, he got me shot once. And Amos, but I certainly don't like him either having crossed paths with him on more than one occasion but I have no quarrel with these two ... correction, three. There is a plant creature amongst them, yes, I can see it now within your mind. Is there anything else I should be made aware of?

"Gnnhh.. mfhhhlmmm!!!"

Pia protested as Birch forced its wooden member into her mouth. She tried turning away, she tried clenching her teeth.. she even tried to bite, but that did not seem to bother him. It was hard as wood. Her nipples were being teased by Slar, its nimble fingers homing in on her sensitive nubs. Birch was busying himself with the insides of her thighs, no doubt closing in on the velvet gate hidden underneath her panties.
And still she was on all fours, waiting for the big one. Waiting for Thud, who would no doubt be trilled to see her in such a convenient position.

Aegir?

Pia recognized the voice in her head. She tried glancing around her, halfway expecting to see the strange, alien being watching it all.

Will you help me?

The thought was hopeful, but short lived. Aegir had just offered reason not to get involved. Besides, she knew he was powerful. Powerful? In some situations, he could pass for a demigod, almost. But she suspected he also had his limitations. And they were three, and at least one of them had strange powers. As far as she knew, he might be planning on joining them. He certainly did not pass up a chance for a good lay, and she had no idea what he thought about sharing.

Wait.. you cannot detect one of them? They are three.. Small, large wood.. Aegir! This is going to be bad! They are many, and they all want it.. Oh God.. This will be rough!

Pia had a grater than average sexual endurance, and usually recovered rather fast. Perhaps mostly because of her abilities as a Voluptarius. But that did not meant she did not feel pain, or fear, or humiliation. This was going to be a rough night, psychologically even more than physically.

Are you asking for assistance?

Aegir was still drawing closer to the scene as Slar's tiny hand reached around a hip, claws shredding through the garments there, getting at and cutting through her panties. "Let's get you ready for Thud. Trust me, you wouldn't wamt a go at him without any sort of prepation."

Clawed hands returned to her hips, the points of his needle-like claws pricking her skin as she heard something akin to a hose being unraveled from a gardener's wheel. Soon enough she could feel a tiny, scaly member pressing against her, roots beneath her pressing against her clit, circling it roughly as she felt this member rubbing up and down against her slit.

"How unpleasant your teeth would be if I had been of the make up of Thud, or even Slar." His fingers tightened against the back of her head drawing her down the root in her mouth, down he forced her to the base of it, then released her head enough so she could draw it away from him only to do the same again. His tempo quick as he brought her head up and down it.

I am unable to read the minds of plants as of yet, though I can deal with him easily enough. It is an easy enough matter to look into the little one's mind and see what he can do and defend against it that way. Sometimes having companions can be a hindrance as much as a strength.

True enough he had already sited the things that made it easy for him to ignore the situation. Aegir was a lazy creature by habit, few things got his interest or attention, fewer still interested him. But still he was conversing with her as he came forward, mainly as a way of her knowing that he was out there as he assessed the situation.

Had he disliked Pia he may have very well stayed at the lake, which he would have done had it been a random student out there that he sensed. As it were, he had a good reason to believe that he was going to act seeing that he was already making the effort of the journey, but in what matter was still something that he debated at present.

Interesting ... Thud has the capability of diving himself into two equal parts, at least according to Slar's memories. Two independent parts but identical in all ways, other then the fact that both parts need to be killed in order to killl him, a very unlikely prospect since he can divide again when one of his copies is slain, he sort of gets the expended energy back and while he can have only one copy at a time he can do so indefinately, well at least from Slar's perspective so I will have to see if I can syphon that knowledge out of Thud's head and learn the truth of the matter.

It usually takes longer to crack into an alien mind, Slar is an easy read. At least recent things that he has done in the last month happen to be easy enough.

Pia tried to protest as Birch forced her head down on his shaft, but only a few strangled noises appeared, as she found her mouth filled with the large cock. She put up less of a struggle as it forced her head up and down gain, finding it better to preserve her energy and keep her breathing.

Her fold were being slowly pushed aside by the scaled, reptilian member. She was lucky it was not so big, at least it should not hurt too much. At least if Birch did not decide to help with his wooden limb.

Aegirs mental commentary made her hearth sink. She might have to deal with two Thuds. That would make them four, plus whatever Birch decided to animate.
Pia might be able to keep up, using the powers she had as a Voluptarius, but that took some time and effort, and now she was a bit to scared and exhausted to make use of her powers. And even then.. this might be a long night.

Can you help? Please..

Pia was mentally pleading. There was something wrong about asking a monster for help, but better the devil you do know, even if she was sure the alien would take payment in full for any help.
The problem was, if Aegir interfered, the trio might fight back. She had no idea how strong they were in comparison to the tentacled alien. If they hurt him, Pia would be without the one power that might know how to get back to Earth.
And that would be worse than any rape imaginable.

Aegir could feel her concern and fear especially at Thud. He was aware that she was not looking forward to his arrival, nor did she know whether or not Aegir could handle the trio by himself. He was confident that Slar and Thud could be easily dea.t with, only Birch serving as a challenge and he did not think the plant-creature could over power him.

In addition Aegir had not concerned himself about being hurt giving his rapid metabolism and regeneration. None seemed to possess the ability to launch electrical attacks, which was the only thing he would have been truly hesitant of.

Indeed, I shall assist you ... it does no good if you are harmed too badly where writing is difficult.

Pia could feel the small prick of Slar forcing it's way inside her soft mound. In and out he thrusted against her with incredible speed forcing her forward to take more of Birch into her mouth.

Do not concern yourself, Thud is a nonfactor. He is almost as slow as I though will be there before I. It will take a few minutes to map out his brainwaves, and Slar's to manipulate them, I am not use to their minds as I am with humans. Of course you will not have to worry about that.

Aegir crept forward, already his brain, being able to multitask with ease, was attacking Slar's mind, getting use to it, mapping it out so that he could use that knowledge to the best of his abilities.

The red critter had really switched to high gear now, and was pistoning Pia for all it was worth. It seemed to be compensating for what it lacked in brawn with sheer energy. It scales was rubbing against Pia's soft insides each time in plunged into her. It might be on the smaller side, but Pia was also very tight, so he should be able to reap his share of satisfaction from her body.
His little claws were digging into the skin of Pia's round buttocks as he hammered her, adding small needles of pain to the sensation of being fucked. Pia let out small moans around Birch's hard cock, now as deep inside as it could go without her gagging on it.

While the position was very uncomfortable, to say the least, and Pia was not enjoying it. But even so, her body was beginning to react. Maybe it was because she had been conditioned so, but something deep inside Pia seemed to react to fear with excitement. Pia was not sure that was a blessing or a curse.

Maybe that meant she would be able to gather some of the sexual energy she needed for magic, but Pia doubted it would make much of an difference.

And while she considered that thought, while Slar was pressing himself inside her, groaning out at the tight folds of her body from behind her, groans answered by Birch as his root moved back and forth within the recesses of her mouth Pia could hear something crash to the forest floor, a small tree topple over by Thud.

The large giant grinned as he looked upon the trio with sharp yellowish teeth. "Beginning without me I see."

"Who could resist master," Slar answered. "We were merely getting her ready to accomodate you."

The giant rumbled forward, stopping a few feet away from the hapless student, he then peeled off the loin cloth he was wearing, his long and thick member throbbing as he regarded her for a moment, then snorted out.

"Step aside Slar, she's got three holes, I'll take her ass, you can hover, Birch, your root has quit the reach you take the mouth."

Thud lumbered towards her, a large hand settling on her shoulders and flowing down her back ... and that was when it happened. Pia was no longer there in that forest but rather in a city someplace. She wore a trench coat and hat of a tan coloration and darkness had settled into the region.

"Pia? What are you doing out here? Come inside with the others, even at this hour someone might see you."

Looking the voice belonged to a young man in similar garb, his hair was long and blond tied up in a pony tale, his eyes settled upon her for a moment as if trying to determine why she was out here by herself before he turned away from her and headed towards the plain nondescript building behind him.

Pia felt a conficting rush of both relief and disorientation. Where was she? Had Thud entered her, and she had gone unconcious from pain? Would she dream then? Was this Aegir's meddling? Had she finally gone bonkers?
Maybe the trio had been too rough, and this was some kind of purgatory? Pia was pretty agnostic when it came to the idea of an afterlife. She did not really assume there would be any, but as far as she knew, you can't know for sure until you are actually dead.

Pia was also wondering if she had been transported somewhere else entirely, or if her body was being hammered somewhere. If the latter, this might be a blessing. She was sure she was not going to feel OK after what the trio had in store for her. Taking a break from the usual terror and humiliation was welcome.

"Pia? What are you doing out here? Come inside with the others, even at this hour someone might see you."

Pia was perplexed for a few seconds. Who was this? How did he know her? She looked down on herself. It was an old fashioned outfit, but with a smart cut. It reminded her a bit about the old black and white films her father used to love. The ponytail of the man did not quite match, but she did not concern herself much with that detail.

"Uh.. yeah. Sure. I am coming! I.. err.. Just wanted some fresh air."

She headed towards the building. Wherever this was, she needed to know more, and the blond man might help. And whoever it was that might see her, she sure did not want to risk that.

The man entered the dimly lit building closing the door behind the pair, eyes going towards the direction of the noise, two men dressed in black dress clothes, black trench coats draped nonchalantly over crates. They were twins, tommy guns propped up against crates while they sat on crates themselves. A third man was across the room peering out a window into the dark streets.

He was older, taller too just over six feet with a scruffy brown beard. He wore a black trench coat, large arms folded over his chest and a hat rested on his head. A tommy gun had been near him against the wall though he did not look back as the door opened up but recognized the steps of the younger man.

"What's the verdict, Johnny?" One of the twins asked, the other was flipping over cards, glancing at their values then set them aside to draw another.

"Coast looks clear, Pia didn't see anything."

"We should lay low," the tall man grumbled by the window.

"Negative on that Greg, they won't expect us to act so thinking that we've gone to ground. After this score we can go our separate ways." Johnny returned.

"Off to Mexico," the card flipper answered. "We lost Jethro today, how are we going to by pass the museum cards now that we can't neutralize the guards?"

"I think I have something for that, provided that Pia is up for that," Johnny answered, blue eyes shifting in her direction. What had just happened her? Where was she? Was this Aegir's doing? He did something similar before in her dorm room but was she certain in how that worked? And if she were here in this place, what was happening to her body? These were just some of the unanswered questions that floated out there.
