Gotta Be Somebody, Part 1
*Listen to "Gotta Be Somebody", by Nickelback. In the original story, I put the song lyrics into the text following along. But, since they're copyrighted, I felt I should remove them. But the song was definitely a part of my writing this.
I moved slowly, gracefully, completing every move with precision. My muscles were relaxed, iron covered in silk, a sheen of sweat making me shine under the outdoor lights. I had learned an ancient art, one that was similar to Tai Chi Chuan, but was much, much older. My teacher had passed away many years ago, but taught me everything he knew. I had a finely developed sense of energy in and around myself. I could feel the earth pulsing with it, feel the people moving, walking, making love. It was... powerful.
I could feel the burning of the tattoos on my arms, making my body tingle. They gave me my energy, they gave me my power. For some people, their tattoos are an extension of themselves. Their bodies are canvases where they showcase their wants, needs, and desires in pictorial form.
But my tattoos created me. They were the words that gave me form and substance. It was an ancient language that was placed on me by my master. It was of the power and energy that was created with the universe itself and helped sustain it.
My movements were smooth as I felt my energy widen and felt the tingling of another. It was my assistant, Rebecca, entrapped once again by my aura. She sat on the back steps of the shop, writhing as my energy mingled with her's, dominated it, overcame it. Her hands slid up and down her body, enjoying the tingling sensation that permeated to her core. I knew she'd never felt anything so powerful before she met me. Most people have no idea of the power within themselves until it is shown to them.
One hand slid into the waist of her pants and she masturbated, driving herself towards a wonderful orgasm. She wanted to give herself to me fully. She wanted desperately to feel everything, to know what it was like.
It was the height of existence to feel the energy overwhelm you to sexual bliss. At least that's what my master had taught me. I had yet to feel the rapture. I wondered where the Yin was to my Yang.
Rebecca was shivering with need, moaning loudly as my power surged through and around her, driving her higher and higher. This wasn't the first time she'd felt this from me and I knew how much she loved it. I maintained my form regardless, needing to finish this most ancient of dances. She pulled her shirt up high on her chest, exposing her breasts to the night air. Her own tattoos shimmered in the lights. She had many, as well as several piercings, all done by me. But only one possessed the power. The others were merely decorations adorning her lovely form.
I finished the set and pulled my power back slowly. I could feel Rebecca's heat and passion peaking again and again, but still I withdrew, removing it from her. As I stood in silent meditation, she lay panting on the steps, barely able to think, barely able to move.
"Oh my god. How in the hell do you do that?" she asked incredulously.
"Oh, sweet Rebecca, if you only knew." I had been tempted to trace the power designs on her, tempted to make her mine. But my master's teaching told me that she wasn't the One. The One had yet to enter into my life. I would know her when I saw her.
I had made a mistake with her though. I had thought she might be the One and wasn't thinking clearly when I traced one of the power symbols on her. Pleasure. I wanted her to feel what the power was like, to entice her to share it with me. But she wanted to be Yang. She wanted to dominate and control the energy and wouldn't make a match for me. Our energies would have clashed with terrible results for us both.
But it was too late. With the one tattoo, she was forever drawn to me and the energy I emanated. She would adore it and long for it. It would forever provide her great pleasure.
We retreated back into the shop as Rebecca straightened her outfit. She draped her arms over my body, sliding against me enticingly. She wanted more from me, wanted me to close early and retreat to the back of the shop with her. She would feed the need of my body, although not my soul. I was very tempted to give myself to her tonight. It would feel right. It might temporarily satiate me.
But the bell at the door tinkled and in you walked. I sensed you before I saw you. Your power was evident to me, although you didn't know about it. You didn't know how to control it or feel it. I licked my lips in anticipation. You were... different.
"Can I help you," Rebecca asked as if annoyed by the intrusion. She moved to the front desk to greet you.
"Yeah... uh...," you looked nervous and unsure of yourself. I stood calmly, letting my power test your's, seeing how yours would react. I was amazed how it mingled with mine at the slightest touch. I could tell you felt it, but you didn't know what you were feeling. "I want to get a tattoo."
"Ok, do you know what you're looking for?"
You pulled a picture out of your purse. "This." It was the picture of a crescent moon with a sprite sitting on the curve like a swing. It was a beautiful picture and would look lovely on you.
"Where do you want it?" Rebecca asked, eyeing the piece.
"I think on my back... uh... between my shoulder blades."
Rebecca looked at me for approval and I nodded, smiling. "That would be a terrific place," I said.
Rebecca moved you into the booth and encouraged you to remove your shirt and bra. This piece would require some space in which to work and I didn't want to get any ink on your clothing. Shy, you held your clothing to your chest, not wanting prying eyes to see you naked. Rebecca finished prepping you as I got the needle and ink ready.
I retrieved my special needle and ink as well. You might be... I wasn't sure... but I hoped.
