Keira woke up to knocking on her door. She pulled the covers over her eyes as the door was opened and a high pitched voice spoke, "Miss Keira! We are here to get you ready for the ceremony, if you would please get untangled from your bedding we shall get ready!"
Keria peeked out to see a tiny old looking woman. She looked like a cat dressed as a grandma. The image of last night flashed into her head and she buried herself deeper under the covers.
"Come now, we cannot dally! We must prepare you Miss and get you out to the people, for they are eager to see the new Elemental!
"Fine," Keria groaned, throwing back the covers and getting out of bed. The cat lady covered her in a hooded robe and ushered her out of the room. "Can't a girl use the bathroom first?" Keria asked grumpy.
"You may relieve yourself when we get to the bathing chamber! Right now we must hurry." Keira followed along in a light jog to keep up. She peered at the city through the slotted windows as they hurried along. The sunrise was making everything shine, the gold towers reflecting the light, almost blinding her. The orange sky looked calm, only a few clouds in the sky.
She followed her through hallways and winding stairs until they reached a huge room. It had a pool set into the floor, columns that had wispy white material strung from them. Sunlight shone from the sky lights above and Keria sucked in a breath. It looked gorgeous.
"Please go relieve yourself so we may begin," the cat woman pointed to a room off to the side, "But please hurry."
Keira went to the bathroom and washed her hands coming back out. The cat lady removed her cloak and motioned for her to remove the rest, Keira was hesitant. "I don't wish to mate with you Miss, I wish to get you ready. You must be cleaned and dressed before the ceremony." Other women then came in, holding material and baskets of stuff. Keira sighed and stripped, wanting to get it over with. The old woman motioned to the pool, and Keira got into the dark blue green water. They moved her to the edge as two of the women, one green skinned and one purple, got in the pool with her. They were wearing silver bikinis, their hair was braided and tied up upon there heads. They looked human, just with the weird skin color. The other two went to the edge of the pool and knelt down, beginning to wash Keira's hair.
The old woman applied oils to the water and handed different things to the other girls. "Relax yourself Miss, and enjoy. We are honored to prepare you." Keira closed her eyes as the women scrubbed her hair and washed her limbs, opening her eyes when she felt them touch her crotch and breasts. She was startled to find the purple woman rubbing a red gel all over her breasts and around her nipples, going around her jewelry.
"Mistress Keveta," she said, looking up at the old woman, "She has her nipples adored with jewelry, may I give her something more fitting for the ceremony?"
"Yes, if she will allow us."
"Sure," Keria said, wondering what kind of jewelry they had. She felt a weird sensation on her crotch and wondered what the other girl was doing, as she was underneath the water. As they finished they motioned for Keria to get out of the water. They positioned her in front of a ornate golden mirror. The sunlight shone on her skin, the water dripping from her body to pool on the floor. She was surprised to see she was completely hairless, explaining what the one girl was doing.
The girls dried her off, taking care to dry her hair to a damp state as Keria watched them. They started to apply an oil to her body, starting at her feet and working up massaging her muscles as they went along. Another girl started brushing out her hair, Keira noticed it was longer, almost to her butt. She examined herself closer in the mirror and realized she had no flaws. Not a pimple or blemish was on her face. She looked to her arm to see if the scar she had gotten when she was eight and had fallen off her bike was still there. It wasn't and Keria looked surprised.
The old woman spoke up, "This ritual is to clean you, to purify your body to be the vessel for the Element. As you are the first to awake, it is your honor to be the one for this rite of passage. We hope you are pleased."
Keria's eyebrows shot up as she responded, "Yes I am. It's a bit shocking though." She looked at the two girls as they massaged her arms then worked into her chest. She blushed hard as they kneaded her breasts, one of them stopping to take out her jewelry. "We will send these to your room Miss," she said looking up at her, her breath tickling Keira's nipple. Keira just nodded unable to speak.
The girls behind her finished brushing her hair. They coated it with something and started to gather it in sections, leaving wispy pieces down and making braids, weaving them together into a top knot. They grabbed golden jewelry and wove it into her hair, a piece connecting it across her forehead, with a ruby hanging between her eyebrows. They changed out her earrings. They put in dangling rubies, and ruby studs in her second set of piercings.
They changed her nose stud out, a thin gold hoop was placed. They added bangles to her arms as the two girls in front of her gathered a pot with a red substance, they began to trace over her symbols and it tingled where the paint was. The other girls attached a beautiful golden collar, rubies lining it, to her neck. It had chains attached to it. They pick one up each and unscrewed the barbell, carefully inserting it into her nipples, the ends being rubies as well. The other chain hung straight down, and the one girl blushed and spoke to Keria, "We need to attach this one to your bud, if you will let us Miss."
Keira looked confused until the girl pointed to her crotch. "Oh. Oh!" She said, a hot blush creeping over her face and neck. "Okay, if you must." She awkwardly spread her legs, letting the girls clamp it to her clit. She felt wet, her embarrassment rising as the green skinned girl smiled up at her licking her lips subtly. They stood and finished tracing the symbols on her chest and neck as the girls behind her traced the ones down her back.
The old woman gathered the cloth and helped Keria step into it. It was very revealing, it was a halter neck, it draped from her shoulders in a low scoop neck showing off the chains between her breasts. Her sides were completely open as well, the symbols curving around her breasts peeking out. Her back was open again, her symbols going down her spine, more apparent with the red paint. Just her butt and legs were covered. They attached a gold chain around her hips, like a belt. It had loops hanging from it in different lengths, rubies at the middle of the loops. The dress had slits on the side like the one she wore last night, going up to her hips and the belt. She couldn't see her nipples even though the dress was white, only the bumps of her jewelry could be seen.
They helped her into golden strapped heels, Keria wobbling a little. She couldn't take her eyes off of herself until one of the girls turned her head, and started applying makeup. Once she was finished Keria looked back and gasped, she looked like a goddess. Her lips were a gorgeous shade of red, her eye shadow was golden, as was her blush, contouring her face into super model status. The gold shimmered on her pale skin, and her hair looked as if it was on fire. She couldn't believe how beautiful she looked.
"Thank you," she half whispered, clutching the hands of the girls. "This is amazing, thank you so much."
The old woman smiled at her, "You are most welcome. Now, we must get you to the ceremony."
----
There was a gathering of people in the ballroom. It was a massive room, tall marble pillars lined the walls, it had an open skylight, letting the sun illuminate the room. Jargen stood tall at the entrance and around the edges of the room. A grand staircase at the front, red carpeting rolled out for the Elemental. Everyone was in white, gold, and red. Golden soldiers stood tall among the crowd.
Greyson stood at the bar area, a couple of pink skinned girls were whispering to each other, glancing at him, their tentacles writhing upon their heads. He sighed heavily, sipping his drink. His thoughts went back to the previous night. He took on a contract, he felt like just because he suddenly became a Keeper his life shouldn't change, he needed to go back to what it was and not be so wrapped up in the girl. Who he owed wouldn't care either. His mind replayed the sight of Keria. She was standing in his doorway. A thin blue dress on, showing off her every curve. Her hair looked tossed, sexy. Her eyes were wide as Greyson climaxed at the sight of her. She turned and ran, and he felt sick to his stomach. His client paid and left. He showered and as he got out he heard voices, peering out into the hall he saw her standing there with that Druindar, he kissed her hand and walked down the hall. Keira had a happy look on her face, almost blissful, as she turned to look at him. He froze then shut the door quickly.
Sighing, he knocked back the drink and ordered another. Looking out into the crowd he spotted that pompous oaf entering the room. He went through the crowd greeting some and made his way to the bar, next to Greyson.
He gave him the side eye, the Druindar stood a good foot above Greyson's 5'7 height. His golden armor shining, the electrostix and energy rifle hanging from his hip. He nodded at Greyson, to which he sneered back and turned to face the bar.
"You should be honored to be a Keeper to such an Elemental," Ari said, trying to break the ice.
"Yeah, sure that's why there throwing this party, for me." Greyson responded mockingly.
"It is for the both of you, you will have a part in the rite of passage. You must also help her seek the other Elementals that may be out there," he said motioning to the sky.
"Sure thing, the next thing you Know my duty will be to wipe her--"
