DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE
A Sexual Adventure in a Fantasy World
Chapter IX -- Viszit's Trap
Alan guessed it had been about three or four hours since they had left the tent tree. And it had been two days since the fairies and the romp with Scarlet. However, as opposed to suppressing his urges, fucking her only seemed to have made him hornier, and he felt a pressing need to screw her again, despite their ongoing predicament. This time he would find a more discreet place so as not to bother Sean and Nicolet, and this time they would wear each other out.
Although Nicolet's reaction to their exhibition had been unreadable, he thought he heard her moaning nearby during their sex, but she had been glum ever since. Whatever had happened, hadn't been as good as his and Scarlet's romp. As he turned to see if Nicolet and Sean were keeping up--once again noticing they were keeping their distance from each other--he thought he caught a glimpse of movement on the path behind them. He wasn't sure.
His wristwatch, the only one still working after their de-clothing, confirmed they had been walking for a little over three hours, but days were about twenty-seven hours long on this world. Adjusting to being awake and asleep longer proved more difficult than expected, and the difference left him fuzzy. Adding to the issue were the three moons.
He hadn't seen all three in the night sky together for most of their journey, but just last night, it happened. The two largest and brightest appeared together in the middle of the night. Scarlet had woken him, saying it was morning. The bright light was filtering in through the tree branches, but with a glance at his watch, and with some elementary math, he figured they had only been asleep for four hours. Sleepily navigating through the low-hanging branches into the clearing, they saw the two bright orbs on opposite sides of the night sky. Adding to their awe was a third smaller, dimmer moon beginning to crest the horizon. All the reflected sunlight made it so the night wasn't quite night.
All the variation in night and day and sleeping under trees naked was not making for good sleep. On top of that, the lack of consistently palatable food was affecting him. They were all very hungry. Given the circumstances, he was a little loopy and doubting himself. Thus, the pursuer who he thought he had seen and perhaps felt their presence was probably not real--just a figment.
Finally, it happened, however. The being following them was not quick enough, and Alan saw the thing before it disappeared into the brush.
"Guys. We're being followed," he said.
"You sure?" asked Scarlet.
"Yes, I've seen glimpses of it and just now got an unobstructed view of it ducking into the bushes. It looked like a hairless chimp."
"It's probably another fairy tale creature that is too shy to come out and meet us," said Nicolet, sounding hopeful.
"It's about time," said Scarlet. "What's it been, maybe 80 miles in this fairytale land, and we've seen what, forest nymphs and fairies? One took our clothes, and the other infected Nicolet and Alan with sexual spells. What will this new one do? I can't wait."
Scarlet's sarcasm surprised Alan, but she appeared to mean it in good fun. "Don't worry, Scarlet. I'm sure not everything here is sexual."
"No, I was serious. Our last two encounters ended up being kind of fun. We should call out to it and see what it has planned for us."
"Hold on," said Sean, "you sure it's not an elf tracking us?"
"Can't say for sure," replied Alan, "but I don't think so. It's at least not what I think an elf looks like, but who knows...right?."
"I don't see any harm in letting it know that we are on to it," said Scarlet. "If it's an elf or working for the elves, best we deal with it. Let me do it. I think I'm less intimidating. Where did you see it?" Alan pointed, and she walked about twenty yards halfway between them and the tree line. "You might as well come out. We know you are there, and we won't hurt you." The bushes rustled, then were still. "Please come out. We want to meet you."
A small creature emerged out of the undergrowth. Alan was right; it could have been a hairless chimp, but it was a small, stooped, sinewy man. He appeared to be all bone and taunt muscle, maybe weighing 50 pounds.
"It's okay. Come here," said Scarlet. With that, the little, dirty brown creature scurried toward her. Its face was furrowed with a pointy nose, black beady eyes, and too-small ears. It was not a friendly-looking creature and she readied herself to fight off an attack. It was too fast to run from.
She was ready to punch the thing when it jumped at her, but it skidded to a halt and, with its head bowed, said, "Yes, Mistress." For a small creature, he was well hung. Fuck, this was the first male being they had seen, and she was assessing his genitals. If everyone in this place was naked, that was a habit she needed to break.
"Can we talk to you?" she asked after gaining her composure.
"You and the other female. No males, Mistress. I don't like males. Don't like females much either, but females speak, and I must do as they say or be hurt."
"Hmm. Nicolet, will you come here? Guys, stay where you are."
Nicolet walked up, and Scarlet said, "This is Nicolet, and I'm Scarlet. Who are you?"
"I will call you Mistresses. I am Viszit."
"Oh...okay. Why were you following us, Viszit?"
"Viszit curious Mistress. Afraid to speak. What being are you?"
"We are human but not from around here."
"Ah, Viszit is also human. Where are you from?" This was hard for Nicolet to believe. The thing didn't look very human.
"Hmm." How could she explain this to the seemingly simple creature? "We came from another place entirely. We came through a portal, like a door."
"Oh, Mistresses and your males came from another world," he said excitedly.
"Yes, that's correct! You understand about other worlds?"
"Yes, yes, of course. How can Viszit help the Mistresses?"
"We could use some good food," said Nicolet, jumping into the conversation, her empty stomach being her most immediate concern.
"Oh, yes! Viszit can help with food. Bring the Mistresses very delicious food. Would that please the Mistresses?"
"Yes, Viszit," said Scarlet, "that would be wonderful. First, will you answer some questions for us? Like what you know about the portal; you seem to know something."
"Yes, answer all questions if Viszit can; bring food for Mistresses first."
"Okay, Viszit; we are very hungry. Make sure it is good food humans like, and Viszit, bring enough food for the males too."
"Yes, Mistress. I understand. You need your males, and Viszit will help with them." With that, the happy little man scurried off into the woods.
"That Mistress thing and how he referred to the men was odd," said Scarlet.
"That was an odd little man," said Nicolet. "Very odd, but no odder than others we have met. At least he wasn't a fairy casting spells."
Alan and Sean walked up and asked, "Where did it go?"
"To get us some food, 'very delicious food,' and then he will happily answer all of our questions," replied Scarlet.
