Ringmaster Ch 23 Back To Reality

I finished spewing up the last of the vomit as I wiped the corners of my mouth. No one ever tells you that returning back to existence is so nauseating. I took a few deep breaths, trying to compose myself. It was difficult to tell where I was at because of Cyril reshaping the world, but I was able to recognize a few of the landmarks from the glance that I got of Danna. I stood up and made sure that no one was looking at me before I set off.

My first goal was to get to Danna and the underground resistance she was building. Thankfully, I could tell that I wasn't too far away from where Danna went. On my way there, I had to duck into alleyways and buildings to make the path quicker. I couldn't afford to waste time so I wanted to use the full power of the Ring's magic, but I also couldn't risk alerting Cyril by using too strong of magic. So, I limited myself to giving myself the magical ability to turn invisible as well as unlocking any door just by touching it.

With the magic, it didn't take too long to reach the building full of women being fucked like toys, moans and the sounds of flesh pounding flesh filled the air. With invisibility, I quickly made my way towards the janitor's closet that I saw Danna go into. I looked into the paint can and groaned. It definitely looked like it hadn't been thrown out in years, but I guess that's what made it so no one would willingly just stick their hand in it. I closed my eyes and reached inside, feeling around for whatever it was Danna had felt for. At the bottom, I could feel a button, so I pressed it before pulling my hand out. I channeled a little magic to clean my hand before the floor opened up beneath me. I slid down a chute for a while before I landed on a mattress, tumbling a little past it.

"Oof, a little rougher than I was expecting," I said as I rubbed my shoulder.

Almost immediately, the resistance members grabbed the nearest thing they had and surrounded me.

"Have we been breached? Is she a spy?"

"Naw, it's just another woman. Probably just some mindless harlot who got all turned around or something. Send her through the backway, quick!"

"Wait wait wait!" I said, standing up and threw my hands up. "I'm not a spy!"

"Egads! This one has some brains that aren't for fucking! She is a spy!" The resistance members all started to get closer.

"No no!" I said, "Let's just lower the weapons. Okay? I'm one of you. I promise. But, I need to talk to Danna."

"She even knows our leader! Let's just silence her right-!"

There was a loud metallic clanging sound. Everyone turned to see Danna standing on a table, holding a ladle and a pot. The resistance members who weren't aiming weapons bowed to Danna; and those that were quickly turned their attention back to me.

"Leader, this one showed up in the chute. Knew how to get down here and she has her wits about her. She's obviously a spy for King Cyril!"

Danna got off the table and slowly approached me; unsure of whether or not it was actually me or some trick that King Cyril did. While I didn't have the ring or anything to really prove that it was me, I did have a little something that Danna would know. With a smile I stuck out my tongue and let it stretch down and out, way longer than any other tongue could ever. Danna's eyes widened with recognition and she threw her arms around me, hugging me tightly.

"Hey dear," I said, pressing my nose against the top of her head. "It's me. It's really me." Then, I did something that I should have done long ago. I channeled the magic through me. Danna pulled herself away from me, tilting her head. She could tell something changed, but not exactly what. With a smile, I signed to her in ASL, "Now, I don't need a translator to fully understand you."

"You gave yourself ASL knowledge?" she signed to me with a smile.

"Something I should have done before, but we always had either Regina or Summer around, so I didn't need to," I signed. "But, I should have and I'm sorry that I didn't do it earlier."

Danna smiled and kissed me firmly on the lips. "It's okay Maria," she signed. Then she turned to the resistance, signing to them. "It's okay. She's on our side, and she's going to be a secret weapon we can use against Cyril." With that, the resistance members all lowered their weapons. She kept signing. "I'll explain more once I catch up with her. For now, please all continue doing your duties. You're all doing great work."

The resistance all nodded and went back to work. With that all settled, Danna took me by the hand and led me back to her room. She patted the bed, which I took a seat on.

"So," Danna began to sign as she sat on the bed as well, "What all happened? How are you back and how do you have the magic again?"

"It's a long story," I said, giving a big sigh. "But, I went into the Ring Realm, performed a ritual, and now I have some magic. But, if I don't get the ring on me in 24 hours, then I completely disappear. I've been trying not to do too much so that Cyril doesn't detect me. In theory, this, let's call it Ring 2, magic should be as capable, but it's hard to really know."

"Well, there is something then I'd like for you to try," Danna signed as she gestured to herself. "I'm aware at least of the overwhelming horniness that Cyril put over all women, but I can barely resist it. Would you be able to stop it from affecting me?"

"Oh! Right! Seqora said that I could do that." I focused on Danna, but the lesser Ring 2 magic wasn't able to flow like the actual Reality Ring. "Come on, magic. Work, darnit."

Danna stretched her leg out to me before signing to me. "Maybe because it's the lesser version, you need physical touch to affect someone else?"

I gave a little shrug. It couldn't hurt to try it. I placed my hand on Danna's leg and, this time, I could feel the energy course through my hand into hers. Danna shivered before giving a satisfied sigh. She laid down on her bed with a wide smile before signing, "Thank you."

"Of course," I said, laying down with her. I looked up at the photos that she had. "Do you have a plan, Danna?"

"Well, I had something like that," she signed as stared at the photos, "but, in all honesty, I don't know how well it would have worked. I mean, we're going up against someone who can alter reality with a mere thought. Sure, all the resistance members besides me are men so he can't control them directly, but we saw how he was able to get around that limitation."

"But," I put my hand on Danna's shoulder and pulled her in for a kiss, "now you have me. And, I think that I might have something. I can't do too much without possibly alerting Cyril. But, in order to pull it off, we're going to need all the girls back." Danna's eyes went wide with excitement. "Yes, we're going to get all five of them back."

"So, what's the plan?" Danna signed.

"I haven't thought it out completely, but that's where stage one comes into play. We're going to get one of the smartest women that we know." Danna nodded and smiled excitedly. "Yep, we're going to get Summer back. Since this Ring 2 version of the magic requires touch, we're going to have to go to her. But, I think the magic will let us teleport us there. Never really tried teleporting before, but it should work."

"What are we waiting for?" Danna signed excitedly. "Let's go!"

"Well, before we do," I said, putting my hands on Danna's shoulders, "I don't know if you know, but all the girls have been severely affected by Cyril. Summer specifically became cruel, whipping people around like a slave driver. Right now, she's not the Summer that you know and love." I gave her another pat on the shoulders. "We're going to change her back, but I just need you to brace yourself for it, okay?"

I could see the softness in Danna's eyes as she looked down at the bed before looking back upwards at the photos. She took a deep breath before nodding.

"Okay, let's do this. Magic, take us to Summer."

I felt the warmth of the magic course through me and flowed into Danna for a brief second. The room around us melted away into a room inside of some kind of warehouse. Outside of a window, we could see a desert area where people were constructing statues of Cyril.

"Feeling alright?" I asked Danna, unsure of how she reacted to being teleported. I wasn't sure if I wasn't feeling any negative effects because I had already done so when I came back to reality or if it was because I was the magic source. Danna held her fist against her mouth for a little bit before taking a few breaths. Then, she nodded at me. "Good. Now, we just need to find out where Summer is. The last time I saw her, she was leading this whole thing, so she's probably in the commander's room, wherever that is."

"Why not use the magic to lead us to her?" Danna signed, still kind of getting her bearings.

"Good idea," I said. I held out my palm and focused the magic to create an arrow that would guide us to her.

At least, that was the plan, but nothing happened.

I shook my hand again, trying to focus on creating some sort of guide that would lead us to Summer, but there wasn't any magic flow. I turned my hand and looked at my palm. "Shit, you can't be serious? Is something wrong with the magic already?"

Danna walked over to me and held my hand before gently stroking her tongue against my fingers, sending shivers through me. She smirked a little, seeing my response and gently sucked on the tips of my fingers.

"D-Danna, what are you doing?" I asked, trying to stifle my moans.

"What do you think I'm doing, silly?" she signed as she kissed along my palm. "You really just keep forgetting to recharge these things. So, we just need to give it a little juice." With that last word, she emphasized it with a gentle swirl of her tongue around my finger.

I had to bite my finger just to suppress more moans. All she was doing was playing with my fingers with her mouth; and yet it was getting me so incredibly turned on. I could feel my thighs tensing with excitement. I had to be careful, otherwise we might lose the entire day to me fucking her; or worse, we would get caught. Still, I could feel the magic starting to surge back up within me, but at this rate, it wasn't going to be enough.

I gently lifted Danna off my fingers and reached down, lifting up my shirt and my lack of a bra. I gently beckoned to her with my finger. "Well, if you're going to do so, might as well help give a nice big boost."

Danna smiled at me with lust in her eyes before cupping my tits with her hands. I wasn't sure if it was just because it was Danna or the new magic within me, but that touch alone sent sparks throughout my body. Her hands were so incredibly soft, and she knew all the right ways to move her fingers; with gentle strokes and pressure, it was the perfect massage.

Then, she stuck out her tongue and started working her way around my breasts. She pressed her face into my cleavage, leaving firm kisses all over. I could feel just how wet this was starting to get me, but I had to remain somewhat in control at least. Danna moved to my left breast, sucking softly on the nipple. I barely managed to stifle a moan when she gave a gentle tug with her lips. Danna grinned at me, her tongue rolling around my nipple as it got harder and harder before moving over to the right breast.

My hands, meanwhile, were gripping onto Danna's hips, pulling her in closer and tighter to me. We pressed our thighs against each other's crotches and started to hump each other. I gently lifted Danna up a little, just so gravity pushed her down more onto my leg.

She took her mouth off my breasts and pressed her lips onto mine. I let her weight push me against the wall, causing her hands to be sandwiched between our breasts. I softly licked Danna's lips, and she opened her mouth to let me inside. Her tongue danced with mine, swirling around in her mouth and caressing each other. Danna's hands pinched my nipples, my body shuddering and my moans suppressed by her mouth.

"Hey! I think I heard something in there!"

The harsh reminder that we were in enemy territory shook us out of our lust as the door opened up. In a quick panic, I turned Danna and I invisible as we tried to remain as still as possible. Two men walked into the room, looking around for the sources of the sounds.

"I could have sworn that I heard something."

"You must be hearing things again! The room's the same as always!"

"But, don't you smell that?"

"I bet one of the guards just came in for a quick fuck is all. Quit wasting our time, dammit! Otherwise, I'll get the Mistress to turn you into a fucktoy!"

"No please! Let's just get back to patrolling!"

The guards left the room quickly. We waited a few more minutes before letting out the breath that we were holding in and we became visible again.

"That was a close one," Danna signed with a reluctant sigh. I could tell she probably wouldn't have stopped until we had both came our brains out, but we couldn't do that right now. "How's the magic feeling?"

I focused on the magic, feeling it course strongly through my veins. "We should be good for now. A little bit to find Summer, some to get us there undetected, and then enough to get us back to the base."

"And make her remember? Free her from Cyril's control?" Danna signed.

"Yes, and make her remember and free her," I said, pulling my shirt down.

I channeled the magic into my palm, creating an arrow that would direct us to where Summer is. I held onto Danna's hand and turned us invisible to everyone except ourselves. Then, we left the room, following the arrow as it guided us.

It didn't take too long for us to reach a room decorated with paintings and statues of Summer dominating men, whipping them into doing her bidding. Sitting on a throne made of three men and resting her feet on a man kneeling on all fours was none other than Summer la Ros. She sipped on some whiskey while holding some papers in another hand. Her clothes were all leather, tight on her body with enough unnecessary straps to make a JRPG protagonist jealous; including a large coat and boots that went up to her knees. There were several buff men all around her, wearing nothing but a g-string thong and holding various things on trays. Her usual demeanor was replaced with a scowl and eyes that seemed to bore right into your soul. Though, I couldn't deny that the eyeshadow and black lipstick that she had on made her look incredibly sexy.

"And why is it taking so fucking long to get the new statue built?" Summer growled to a guard who was kneeling before her.

"Mistress, we are already working the slaves as hard as possible," the man said. "But, we should be getting more soon. The scouts should be returning tomorrow with the latest haul of people."

"Good," Summer said, swirling the whiskey in her glass before sipping it. "I expect good results. You know what happens if you don't."

"Yes Mistress! You need not waste your time or energy on me."

"And what of finding the rebel hideout?" Summer asked, crossing her legs.

"I feel that we are getting close. There are only so many more places that they can hide. We are working around the clock to find them."

"Good," Summer said as she lifted the man's chin with her toes. "You know what happens to those who fail me."

"We haven't failed you, Mistress," the man said, trying to steel his resolve, "We just have yet to succeed is all." The man gulped as he stared up at Summer, trying desperately to keep his eyes on her face rather than anywhere else on her body.

"Hmm," Summer said as she took a sip of her whiskey before pushing the man with her foot and throwing the papers at him. "If that's all, then get back to work!"

"Yes Mistress!" The man scrambled to collect all the papers and then rushed out of the room.

"I swear, how hard is it to find good help these days?" Summer stood up before kicking aside the man who was acting as her footstool. "Why is it so hard for them to understand?" she asks as she approaches a window and looks down at all the people shuffling about. "They get to live free under my good graces and the will of King Cyril. They should be thanking us, spending every second devoted to repaying us for our kindness." She took another sip of whiskey. "The ungrateful lot, all of them. We'll have to beat the submission back into them."

"I can't stand to see her like this any more, Maria," Danna signed to me as she turned away. "I know you warned me, but I wasn't quite prepared to see Summer being so heartless."

"Don't worry," I signed back as I stepped towards Summer, "We're going to set everything right. At least, I hope so."

Right now, Summer wasn't the issue, it was all the other people in the room. I didn't have enough magic to do anything except return Summer back to normal and teleport us out. I had absolutely no way of knowing whether or not the other people here would end up alerting Cyril about something happening. We would have to make sure that no one currently focuses on Summer, so we had to make it seem like nothing was happening. I beckoned for Danna to come over and we both were now standing behind Summer.

"I'm going to reach for and try and gag Summer with my hand. You gotta try and keep her restrained so she doesn't alert anyone else in here. Keep her as still as possible. Got it?" I signed to Danna. Danna nodded and prepared herself to grab Summer's arms and hold her legs.

I started to channel the magic to nullify Cyril's effects, then I put one hand over her mouth and the other holding her arm in place. Danna grabbed Summer's other arm and wrapped her legs around Summer's. My hand muffled most of Summer's grunt of confusion, but I wasn't sure right now if anyone noticed. The magic flowed out of me and coursed through Summer's thrashing body. It didn't take too long for her to calm down as I hoped her mind returned back to normal.

"Mistress? Are you alright?" One of the servants had turned over and had his eyes on Summer.

Summer nodded and I slowly removed my hand; ready to cover it if it hadn't worked. She took a deep breath before responding, not even looking back. "If I need your attention, I'll call for you like the dog you are. Do you understand?"

"Yes Mistress!" The servant stood back at attention, keeping his eyes forward.

Summer took another deep breath. "All of you, I demand some alone time. Including those of my throne and furniture. Leave me. Now!" There was a quick shuffling of feet as all the servants rushed out of the room and shut the door behind them. After waiting a little bit, Summer sighed. "Alright, the coast should be clear now."

Danna and I both turned visible again and Summer drew a wide smile across her face as she pulled both of us in for a large hug and planted a kiss on both of our lips. "Maria! Danna! I thought I would never see you two again! What are you two doing here? How are you two here? Were you invisible?"

"It's a lot to explain, Summer, but right now, we need to get out of here. I just need you to brace yourself right now. You're probably going to feel a little nausea, but it'll be alright," I said, putting my hand on her shoulder.

Summer looked towards Danna and Danna reassuringly smiled at her. "Alright Maria. Do whatever it is that you need to do."

I channeled the magic and the room around us melted away into Danna's room at the rebellion. Danna seemed to not be affected by the side effects too much, but Summer fell to her hands and knees as she tried to steady herself. Danna gently patted her back as Summer took a few deep breaths. After a few minutes, she stood up and seemed to have recovered from the teleporting.

"Okay, that was a very strange feeling," Summer said, brushing off her hands and knees.

"If you need more time to recover, you can lay down on Danna's bed," I said, gesturing to Danna's bed.
