Aesops Wager

Two gods were sat in a New York park one day. Being deities from two different faiths, they were arguing as usual about who was the most powerful. Such arguments were common between gods as each wanted to prove they were better than the other (the past thousand years has seen a fast increase in such arguments as one by one, each god was slowly being forgotten about by the humans they watched over).

The two gods in question this day were Loki and Asiaq. Since the fall of the Nordic and Asiaq religions respectively, there really had been nothing at all to do for either of them. When Loki sent Chlamydia down to Earth to screw with the promiscuous classes, nobody prayed for him to take it back. Instead they wrapped themselves up in latex and blamed the disease on the Europeans. Likewise when Asiaq brought forth great storms and winds to beat down upon the humans' homes, the people once again did not pray to her, they gave the winds names like Fred and blamed them on Henry Ford.

For the average man or woman it would be irritating to not be given the credit you deserve for such hard work, but when you are an immortal and this has been happening for hundreds of years... well eternity can really begin to drag. A god without followers is like a junior banker in 2009: redundant. Thus one has to resort to petty bickering and squabbles amongst themselves for any sort of recognition of their powers and glory. This in turn has led to the rise of the inter-deity wager.

Even though the arguments had raged on for centuries, the first such wager occurred in 1883 when Ra, the Sun-God got into a quarrel with the fire-god: Zhu Rong. Being one of the original great gods and lord of the greatest empire the universe had ever seen at the time, Ra soon became angry when Zhu Rong claimed that his time in the sun was gone for good. Zhu Rong chided him that gods such as Jehovah who were still all-powerful with followers controlled the sun now and as such he was now irrelevant. Such talk had angered Ra and so he issued the first ever inter-faith challenge to Zhu Rong. He boasted to Zhu Rong that his power over the sun was as powerful as ever and to prove it he bet Zhu Rong on a set day, he would be able to bring darkness to a specific part of the world for longer than Zhu Rong could.

Zhu Rong accepted the challenge and the terms of the wager were set: On the next day, Ra would attempt to bring darkness to Europe for as long as possible before Zhu Rong would be charged with trying to beat Ra's target. The loser would become the winner's slave for the next thousand years.

When the day of the challenge came, deities from all over the Earth gathered to watch the spectacle. Ra was unfazed by the crowd and when Zeus (who had been appointed referee) signalled, he began the challenge. The onlookers watched as Ra summoned up the whole of his power to push the sun behind the moon and cause an eclipse that did indeed plunge Europe into darkness. Ra's success was short-lived though as soon the gods of Christianity and Islam saw what had occurred and quickly brought Europe back into the light and Ra's challenge was over. Ra had achieved a time of just nine minutes, but he was not bothered. There was no way that a mere god of fire could better him.

The next day, the crowds once again flocked to see the second half of the spectacle unfold. Nobody gave Zhu Rong a chance in Hades of winning as none could see how a fire god could ever bring darkness. Zhu Rong was not fazed though, he had a plan and once everybody was in place to witness this historic event, he began:

At first it seemed like nothing was happening and Ra began to mock his opponent and encouraged him to just give up already. Zhu Rong however just smiled and pointed to a small island south of the Asian mainland. The spectators turned and watched as the island off-Java exploded in a cloud of ash and fire that billowed endlessly into the sky. Like the day before the modern gods saw the carnage in Krakatoa, but there was nothing they could do, to stop things now would require interfering with nature and that would not do. On that day, Zhu Rong successfully brought darkness not only to Asia, but the entire world and for much longer than nine minutes. Ra was forced to submit to Zhu Rong as his slave for the next millennium.

Since then, countless wagers had taken place and now Asiaq and Loki were sowing the seeds to be the next heavenly combatants.

"So we have a wager?" said Loki.

"Very well," agreed Asiaq, "although you will regret this. Your parlour tricks cannot compare the power of nature."

"We shall see." smiled Loki. "There's a lot more to me than you may think. I have won wagers with far greater gods than you my dear."

"Arrogance will be your downfall my friend."

Loki just smiled at her, "then shall we summon our referee?"

"If you really want to go through with this..."

"Then it's set." Confirmed Loki, "Apollo!!!"

In a flash Apollo appeared in the park. "So we have a wager?"

"Yes my friend, we do."

"What is the challenge?"

"Today, Asiaq will be charged with getting the human of your choice to strip down to their underwear without the use of physical contact. Tomorrow we shall return here and I will face the same challenge on a new human subject. Whoever completes the task quickest will be declared the winner."

"What are the terms of the wager?"

"Should I win, then Asiaq will submit to me for five hundred years. She will do my bidding and be completely under my power."

"But if I win" interjected Asiaq, "then old Loki here will have to submit to all the goddesses of the Inuit. He will be our little plaything."

As per the custom, Apollo gave each competitor one more chance to pull out of the challenge and when each had declined the offer, the wager was set in stone.

The next day the usual spectators gathered (Romans, Egyptians, Brian: God of the Atheists and the like) to watch the latest challenge unfold. As normal Poseidon was running the book and made Asiaq the odds on favourite but there was still plenty of action for each side. Once the crowd was ready, Apollo beckoned the first contestant.

"Asiaq, please take your position."

Asiaq appeared before the crowd; the Inuit gods whooped and cheered, as did a fair number of the anti-Loki brigade. Apollo picked out a young brunette lady sitting on a park bench, reading a book. She was wearing a hat and summer dress and was a totally unsuspecting victim of what was about to occur.

"She," began Apollo "is your challenge. Your time begins, now."

Asiaq immediately began to summon all of her powers of the weather. Within seconds, the young lady's hat was blown clear off her head by a sudden gust of wind. The young woman tried to chase after it but Asiaq was too quick for her. The woman was reduced to just standing in bemusement as an extremely localised gale force wind carried her hat up into orbit and far out of her reach. The woman barely had time to mourn over her loss though when another huge gust of wind swept up her dress. Unprepared, she was able to hold onto her dress in the nick of time before it was blown clean off her body. Even though passers-by must have bought they were witnessing a tribute to Marylyn Monroe as over and over again the woman's dress flew up over her panties and she had to fight for all it was worth to remain decent.

As time went by, the deity audience was joined by a human one as park-goers stopped to watch this bizarre spectacle of a women seemingly being bullied by the weather. They watched as they saw her endure a mini monsoon, hail shower, heat wave and thunder storm that left the woman hot, wet and in a dress that was singed into tatters but still just about covering her modesty. Entering her third hour of the challenge, Asiaq was becoming frustrated by the woman's resilience (as well as secretly a little desperate at her own failure so far). Finally, after two hours and forty minutes she managed to succeed as an army of miniature tornados served to defeat the final wave of resistance from the woman and whisk the dress clean off of her and into the sky, thus leaving her standing dazed and confused, in nothing but her underwear.

The crowd of gods cheered Asiaq's success, the crowd of humans (now that the crazy weather had ended) finally decided to come to the woman's aid and Apollo announced the time to beat as one hundred and sixty minutes. Loki just smiled and agreed to meet everyone at the park again the next day to complete the challenge.

As the midday sun shone over the park the next day, Asiaq, Apollo and the crowd awaited Loki's arrival. Minutes passed and murmurings began that possibly Loki had conceded, nobody had ever been late for an inter-deity challenge before so the crowd began to fear that the challenge was already over. Asiaq, who up until then had carried herself with a mixture of nervousness and forced confidence was beginning to relax, believing that Loki must be scared to show his face. She began to laugh and brag with her fellow Inuits, joking about all the things they would make him do when a flash of lightning took the crowd by surprise.

Smoke billowed from the ground, engulfing the confused bystanders until a figure emerged from the plume. Loki stood there with a smile on his face and a leash in his hand.

"You didn't think I'd miss this did you?" he told the crowd.

Asiaq's composure was lost, "I suppose you think you are funny do you? You were supposed to start at twenty minutes ago! And what's this?" she pointed to the leash, "You can't use props, it's not allowed."

Loki laughed, "My dear, this is not for the challenge, it's for you. I don't want to waste a second of my victory. And as for the twenty minutes... you can have them. I'll have this challenge won in less than an hour don't you worry." And before Asiaq had a chance to respond, Loki's back was turned and he had approached Apollo. "So, Apollo dear friend. Who's it gonna be?"

Trying to stay fair, Apollo once again decided upon a young lady sitting on a bench reading a book. Once again the lady was in a summer dress although this time she was blonde and the book was of a far more academic bent. Loki sized up his target, cracked his knuckles and then to the bemusement of the crowd, went to get a cup of coffee.

"What the hell are you doing?" Asiaq yelled at him, clearly pissed off at the games he was playing.

"Oh I'm sorry." Said Loki, "You'd prefer to lose this bet right now? Well, as you wish..." Loki snapped his fingers and then just returned to his coffee.

Asiaq was about to rant again when something about the girl's demeanour caught her eye. She was beginning to squirm in her seat as if something were making her feel uncomfortable. Asiaq glanced over to Loki who seemed to be sharing a joke with Zorg: the Martian God of snow, he didn't seem the least bit concerned with the goings on at the bench.

The girl continued to squirm, she had come to the park to kill a bit of time before meeting her mother to go shopping but now she was starting to feel a little weird. She could feel a tingling in her pussy and it was becoming stronger and stronger. It was by far not an unpleasant experience, but in a busy public park, it was unwelcome. She tried shifting her weight, crossing her legs, uncrossing her legs but the sensations remained. In fact, they got stronger. The girl tried to concentrate on her book but soon a discrete hand was attempting to stealthily disappear up her dress. As long as she wasn't overt, there was a good chance nobody would notice wasn't there?

Unaware at how obvious you look to passers-by when you are sat on a bench with one hand disappeared up your skirt, the girl soon discovered that the more she tried to quell her urges, the stronger they became. A slow discretionary stroking of the clit soon turned into a desperate assault on herself as the girl became less and less concerned about being seen and more and more concerned about being seen to. A few seconds later, a book on quantum physics was flying through the air, landing by a growing group of young men that had stopped to watch the show. The book's owner was now free to commit both hands to her body and soon the girl's left breast was receiving the same treatment as her pussy.

Even including the twenty or so minutes lost to lateness, Loki's challenge was barely half an hour old and the girl was already exposing a breast (after a futile attempt at subtlety the bra was cast in the same direction as the book before it). Asiaq was entering panic-mode, "He's cheating! He has to be cheating!" she cried, but her protests went ignored as the crowd witnessed the second breast win its freedom from the repression of clothing.

The girl though was not interested in the ins and outs of divine intervention, right now she was far more interested in the ins and outs of male penetration. She finally noticed the audience that had gathered around her and only one thought entered her head. She leapt to her feet, her dress falling off her shoulders and hanging at her waist and dived at the crotch of the nearest spectator. The young man appeared hesitant at first but was soon won round by the two delicate hands tugging at his shorts and two full red lips guzzling at his cock.

The girl sucked and sucked on the lucky guy's cock, keeping one hand back to tend to her own crotch's needs but it still wasn't enough. She felt the guy's hand on the back of her head and bolted her head back.

"No! No! This isn't right." She got to her feet. "I can't do this like this." She grabbed her dress and ripped it off her body, her panties soon followed. "Please somebody, fuck me! I need somebody to fuck me when I do this."

The girl then fell back to her knees and returned to the first guy's cock, her naked ass up I the air, inviting the first person willing to step up to the challenge. After an initial attack of group stage-fright, one guy stepped forward, unsheathed his cock and began to give the girl the satisfaction she had been craving for. Over the course of that afternoon, the girl was fucked by every member in her audience and she couldn't have been happier. By the time she had to meet her mother, she was full of satisfaction, full of cum and happier than her mother had seen her in years.

As for Asiaq, her heart had sunk the moment the girl's dress had touched the grass (the panties just added insult to injury). She wanted to protest again but before she could, she felt a collar clasp around her neck. Her voice failed her and she fell to her knees, looking up into the eyes of Loki.

"The collar will just make sure you behave yourself for the next five centuries." Said Loki before turning to the crowd "thank you all for your support; I hope the entertainment was to your satisfaction. I regret that Asiaq and I must now retire so that I can have mine." The assembled crowd cheered as Loki and his new slave disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

Back in Asgard, Loki instructed Asiaq to undress herself.

"We will have a lot of fun here. Just like that lovely young girl in the park did." He told her.

Asiaq said nothing as Loki continued, "You were never going to win, I gave my challenge exactly what she wanted, you didn't. No amount of wind or sun can compete with that."

Asiaq now stood before Loki, naked and ready for instruction. He ushered her to her knees and guided her head in the direction of his waiting cock. Asiaq was powerless to do anything but take it in her mouth as Loki continued to boast:

"It was like an old friend of mine once told me: 'kindness effects more than severity'"

The End.
