"Come down now and no charges will be brought against you!" the police chief shouted over the megaphone.
"Eat shit pig!" Alicia shouted back down from her makeshift tree house. There was no way she was going to voluntarily leave the giant tree. Developers wanted to tear it down, along with many others like it, for a new housing development. Trees that had been here for hundreds of years were just going to be removed in a matter of minutes. It wasn't right.
"Alicia," a feeble female voice now called to her, "please dear stop making so much trouble and come down."
"I can't mom," Alicia yelled back, "I'm sorry, but I have to do this."
Her parents would never understand her motivations. They were the type who didn't get involved in things like this. They were happy to sit on the sidelines and watch the world pass them by. Not her. These defenseless trees needed an advocate; a protector, and she was going to be it. Would they eventually get her down? Probably, but her point had to be made.
From her lofty perch Alicia saw two white vans with large numbers written on the side. Perfect, the local news was here. She would have preferred the national news like CNN or MSNBC, but for now this would suffice. She messed up her hair a little hoping her ragged appearance would dramatize the effect, as the cameras trained in on her.

As the sun set, things on the ground began to settle down. The gawkers and news vans had departed and soon only one police car was left. A chilly gust of wind blew by Alicia causing her to shiver so she decided to crawl into her small tent for the night. The night was the worst part of her protest. It wasn't the cold or the height that bothered her, but the loneliness.
She laid her head down on her pillow and crawled into her sleeping bag. It was hard to get comfortable on the hard plywood that composed the base of her platform, but eventually her eyelids got heavy and she drifted off to sleep.
Just as her eyes closed, she felt something brush against her leg. She lifted her head and looked down. The flap to her tent was unzipped and waving lazily in the breeze. She could have sworn she had closed it. She sat up and rubbed her eyes. She then saw what had touched her. A tree branch had somehow gotten through the opening and was resting on her calf. The strange part was she couldn't remember it being there before.
The branch was only about as thick as her arm and covered sparsely with leaves. Alicia climbed out of her sleeping bag and studied the branch wondering how it had gotten in her tent. She took hold of the branch and gently tried to bend it back outside but the limb was far stiffer than it appeared and resisted. Frustrated and tired she decided to live with it. She zipped the tent closed around the branch and laid down on top of the sleeping bag.
Again, just as she was about to drift off to sleep she felt something else brush her shoulder. When she opened her eyes another tree branch had appeared. This one was similar to the other but extended further into the tent. As she looked around she noticed a third and fourth branch had also found their way in. She rubbed her eyes confused as to what was going on. Then the original branch brushed against the side of her leg.
Thank you.
It was a voice inside her head, but it was not her own. It felt different and foreign. Frightened, she recoiled immediately to the back of her tent. In doing so she brushed against one of the longer branches.
Do not be afraid.
She heard the same voice again and then another branch made contact with her arm.
Thank you for protecting me.
"Who are you?" Alicia said aloud in a shaky voice, "what do you want?"
I am very old and I desire only you.
At that moment two green vines studded with leaves entered the tent. They slithered along the ground very slowly toward Alicia. She began to panic but then a soothing sensation overcame her.
I am your friend.
A calm settled over her and she instantly felt safe. Green shoots sprang from one of the branches and wrapped around her wrists. The strong limbs of the tree held her arms apart at about shoulder height. The slower moving vines had now made their way to her feet. Without slowing, they began to wind their way up Alicia's legs. The vines were surprisingly warm against her legs and the small leaves tickled as they brushed against her.
They continued moving upward and slipped inside her kaki shorts. Alicia gasped as one vines got dangerously close to her nether region. At the same moment, however both dipped below her panty line, one from the front and the other from the rear. Her knees got weak as the soft tip of the vine grazed her sensitive pussy. It did not attempt to enter her however but continued to slide by. Likewise, the vine behind her did the same with the crack of her ass. She could feel that vine wedge itself between her cheeks. As the vines slithered along, she could feel as each soft leaf massaged her clit and rectum respectively.
The tips of the two vines then poked up out of her shorts and began to make their way under her shirt. Unlike with her shorts however, the vines seemed to grab her shirt lifting it upward. They wrapped about her torso until they reached her chest. One vine went under her bra, between her breasts, while the other unsnapped it from the back. It also seemed to somehow cut the straps because the bra fell lifelessly to the floor, leaving her exposed. Her nipples got instantly erect from the cool breeze.
Each vine then wound loosely around each of her breasts. They wrapped each tit twice around then tightened. The squeezing engorged her already hard nipples. As the pulsating constriction continued, the tips of the vines massaged her sensitive nipples. They also excreted an aloe like substance both lubing and softening her tender areolas.
Alicia's breathing got deeper as the pleasurable sensations continued. The vines against her pussy and ass continued to slowly wriggle and grind against her causing her to let out a soft moan. Another vine then appeared out of the corner of her eye. The tip brushed against her face as it wrapped itself around her neck. It did not tighten but poised its tip directly in front of her face. It paused there a minute before rubbing its soft, delicate tip against her lips. It too excreted the slippery aloe smelling substance and she stuck her tongue out for a taste. It was sweet like syrup but thin in consistency and she found it very pleasing. The vine entered her mouth and she began to suck the juice from it. It flowed as fast as she sucked and she swallowed it down greedily.
As she enjoyed the warm, sweet fluid, more vines entered her tent. These were thicker and more fibrous giving them a muscular look. One of them wrapped itself around her waist and the other around her chest, just under her arms. They tightened gently and then in tandem, all the vines lifted her a few inches off the ground. Suspended in the air, she was now at their complete mercy.
The vines then moved her to sitting like position so that she was facing the entrance to her tent. The ones around her legs shifted and spread her knees apart slightly. When she looked down between her legs, she saw a thin vine covered with thorns moving toward her. Its tip was hooked and appeared razor sharp. She became nervous as the bristling vine approached her crotch. She struggled slightly but the vines held her fast. With precision of a surgeon, it hooked her kaki shorts and tore them in half. Using its thorns it also snagged her white panties and shredded them, leaving the delicate skin underneath untouched.
Her sex was now completely vulnerable and the cool night air caused her clit to tingle. The vines on her legs continued to move her legs apart until she was completely spread eagle facing the tent flap. They bent her legs and pushed her knees up to her chest and her heels brushed against her ass. All the while the vines around her tits continued to squeeze and prod, and the one in her mouth played with her tongue.
The thorny vine withdrew from the tent, but as it did a larger branch entered. It did not slither like a vine, but was rigid and hung in midair. It was brown and covered with a rougher bark. It was also much wider, about three inches in diameter, and sturdier looking than the others she had encountered so far. At the same time the vine, which rubbed against her pussy, lifted itself off to the side. Alicia's eyes widened as she put two and two together.
