Today was finally the day. After two long years of waiting, Naomi was ready to set out on her adventure. Today was the day she was able to enter the portal and travel to the world of Bondage Babes.
The rays of sunlight beaming into her room only filled her with encouragement. It was a sign, an omen of good fortune for things to come. Naomi yawned and got out of bed, an excited smile on her face. The previous two years she'd spent at the academy were all for the adventure that she was about to begin.
"Honey? Are you almost ready to head out?" Her mother's warm voice called up from the kitchen. "I made your favourite breakfast for your big day." Sarina was a kind woman, and she'd always been rather doting towards her daughter. Not that Naomi minded. With the smell of freshly made waffles with strawberries and whipped cream drifting upwards into her room, Naomi couldn't imagine a better start to her journey. "Coming Mama! I'll be there in a minute!" She did a few stretches to get rid of her morning wood before heading down for her birthday breakfast.
The meal looked just as good as it smelled. Sarina was hardly an expert chef, but the love she put into her food more than made up for it. Naomi pulled sat down and began digging in, putting little thought into etiquette or manners. After all, this would be the last home-cooked meal she'd get for a while. "Are you sure you're all packed? Is there anything you've forgotten? You would hate to leave only to realise you forgot your toothbrush."
Naomi rolled her eyes. Her mother was well intentioned, but she had a bad habit of worrying too much. "Yes Mama, I'm sure I packed everything. I double checked last night." She scarfed down the remains of her waffles and wiped her mouth with a napkin. "I'm going to be heading out right away. It wouldn't do well to keep Professor Pussywillow waiting."
Her mother leaned in and gave her a gigantic bear hug. "I know you'll do great, honey. Remember to drink lots of water. And don't fall for any of the traps. And make sure you have your hand book, and..." she continued spouting reminders while Naomi finished getting ready.
Ten minutes later, she had her backpack and was heading out the door, an extra large spring in her step. Naomi knew that her mother meant well. After all, Sarina had previously been a Bondage Babe Trainer many years ago. It was something many young adults wanted to try. Nobody knew exactly where the portals had come from, or exactly how they worked. What people did know was that anyone past the age of twenty could freely travel through them, back and forth to another dimension.
The other world was mostly wild and untamed. There were several villages and settlements around, but it was still mostly a new frontier. The sense of wanderlust and adventure was a strong draw itself, but that wasn't what most people were interested in. Most people were intrigued by the Bondage Babes, the creatures native to the realm. They looked like human women, at least for the most part. But they also had strange powers. Most of which involved restraining the target in an erotic fashion, hence the name.
The Bondage Babes loved to fight with each other. Not only that, but some of them would bond with humans, and would fight on their behalf. As a result, the other world built up a unique culture around "trainers" who would capture the Bondage Babes and do battle with each other. Naomi was looking forward to being one of these trainers, and she couldn't wait to see what Professor Pussywillow was going to give her to start her adventure.
Naomi took a deep breath as she entered the science lab. She'd been here several times before, but never before had her heart been fluttering with this much excitement. This time the portal would finally take her to the other world. While the building was mostly empty, Naomi knew that was hardly an indicator of activity in the lab. Professor Pussywillow spent most of her time on the other side of the portal, although she kept a base on both ends for research purposes.
Sure enough, the portal itself began to whir and glow less than a minute after she arrived. Naomi stood in fascination as a silhouette began to form, rapidly becoming more and more solid. The slender figure of a mature woman in a lab coat stepped forwards. Professor Pussywillow looked to be somewhat flushed, a tinge of red on her cheeks and an unkempt hairdo. "Naomi, you're here!" She clapped her hands upon seeing the younger adventurer. "I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long, there were just a few things I had to tie up over there."
Naomi shook her head. "Not at all, Professor. I just arrived. Although I am ready to get started as soon as possible."
Professor Pussywillow grinned at her. "Ah, the wondrous excitement of youth. I'd ask if you're certain you're ready, but I already know the answer to that." She stepped aside, gesturing for Naomi to enter the portal. "Well, let's get to it then. Are you ready to start your new adventure?" There wasn't the slightest hint of hesitation as Naomi stepped forwards.
A part of her was worried the portal wouldn't work. Everyone had told her it was a simple and automatic process, but that didn't stop her mind from spiralling with possibilities. It'd be terribly awkward if she was just stuck here, unable to reach the realm of the Bondage Babes. Thankfully, her worries proved unfounded, and the portal eagerly sucked her away to the other realm.
It was a strange sensation. Everyone described it as slightly different, with some comparing it to falling while others felt it was more like an elevator. Naomi felt like she was floating on air, with an almost ticklish sensation coming from all sides. It didn't last long, however. She had expected some dramatic mystical journey, but it only took a few seconds of bright lights and weightlessness.
Soon she found herself standing on proper ground again. Once again, Naomi was standing in a lab, and it looked rather similar to where she had just been. For a moment, she wondered if the portal had left her on the other side after all. Before she could fully process the situation, a firm hand clasped her shoulder, seemingly out of nowhere. "A bit underwhelming, isn't it?"
Naomi jumped at the sound of Professor Pussywillow's voice. She turned around, and sure enough the older woman was right behind her, a confidant smile on her face. "Sorry if you were expecting fancy bells and whistles. I know it doesn't look that different yet, but you'll soon see what this world is like."
Although the Professor sounded certain, Naomi still had some lingering doubts. It made sense that it would look the same, but for travelling to a different world, nothing had really blown her away yet. "I guess that makes sense. Still, I was expecting something, I don't know, a little
more."
Instead of reprimanding her, Professor Pussywillow just grinned. "You're not the first person to think that. Follow me, I'll show you something that'll change your mind." She began walking at a brisk pace, and Naomi followed her as best as she could with her large backpack.
"I'm sure you've heard of how this works," the Professor began. "It would be unfair to send you off into the untamed wilds on your own. So I've got three special Bondage Babes here in the lab, and you can take your pick for which one you want to join you." She pulled open a door, revealing her personal study. Naomi was hit by a wave of cool air as she stepped inside.
This room was
much
different from any part of the lab from her own world. There were a number of high tech gadgets, with a couple computers and some display monitors against the walls. However, it was the centrepiece that really caught Naomi's attention. Standing upright were what appeared to be a set of three buttplugs, each standing upright on its base. Naomi knew that these were no ordinary plugs. These were the technological marvels known as Bond-plugs, a unique capsule device that was able to carry a Bondage Babe inside.
"Take a look, if you will." The Professor hit a button on the table, and a set of holographic projections shot up, each showing a figure above the plugs. "These three lovely Babes are who you'll be choosing from today." She walked over to the first one. It appeared to be a muscular woman, with a lithe body but well toned abs. She was wearing a thin bikini and tight booty shorts. "This one is called Tombuoyant. It's a talented swimmer and is an athlete type, which is pretty versatile in most situations."
Naomi nodded in silence as Professor Pussywillow moved on to the next plug. "This one is a bit of a vixen. Simmera is a Punk/Sadist, which gives it a lot of strengths. However, its defences are pretty low, and it's extra vulnerable to cute types." Simmera was a tough looking gal, with fiery red hair and torn leather clothes. Sadist types were good against a lot of things, but there were quite a few Babes immune to their attacks.
Professor Pussywillow motioned towards the last one. "Finally, we have Chastice, an Innocent/Femme." Naomi winced upon hearing the type combination. Femme's were weak to a lot of things - butches, tops, riggers, and bimbo's to name a few. Innocent Babes were vulnerable to bullies and sadists as well. It was a combination that left a lot to be desired. "I know what you're thinking," the Professor commented, "but this one is a lot stronger than it sounds. Thanks to its special ability, Chastice is permanently in a steel chastity belt, which makes her unable to be taken out by a lot of attacks."
Even with that knowledge, Chastice looked like the weakest of the trio. She was a blonde in a full nun's outfit, although her generous curves were visible beneath the fabric. Naomi had a difficult time imagining herself fighting other trainers and taking on challenges with a Bondage Babe like that. But somehow, almost inexplicably, she found herself drawn towards it. Chastice was tough. It was an underdog, but it was a survivor. Naomi knew she didn't just want to take the best Babes, she wanted to take the one that suited herself as well.
"I'll take Chastice." She moved towards the table, putting her hand on the plug. It was then that she noticed something else. There was another plug on the floor behind the table, although it had a very different shape. It was much larger, with a number of rigid bulbs stacked on top of each other instead of a smooth surface. "Hang on, what's this one? Is it another starter?"
Professor Pussywillow's cheeks turned a bright red. "Oh! That's... that's not supposed to be there." She hurried over snatch the plug away from Naomi. "It's, um, a special project. Super secret and rare Bondage Babe inside, and it's best if you just forget you saw it." She cleared her throat in an attempt to maintain her composure. "Now, you said you wanted Chastice? An excellent choice, if I do say so myself. Why don't you let her out here, so you can say hello?"
