"Damn it Bradley, would you pick up the pace. If we don't make it out of the Fetid Swamp by nightfall, we're going to half to rotate sleeping shifts again." Shouted a beautiful, blonde succubus, Amanda. Trudging through the thick, marshy mud of the Fetid swamp was hard enough in the game with all the monsters, but when you have to deal with the ankle deep terrain as well, it get's quite trickier. The pair had already encounter several hundreds of monsters here in the past two days, and if it wasn't for Amanda's high levels, the two would be mixed into the swampy muck by now.
"I'm going as fast as I can, Amanda. It's bad enough being trapped in this realm, but did it have to turn me into a girl too?" Complained an attractive, albeit reluctant, priestess. "I was slow in my normal body, but at least I was used to it. This body is lighter and the center of gravity is weigh off, plus these damn panties keep riding up my butt. I switched to boxers from briefs back home when I was fifteen to avoid this very problem." The attractive girl that Bradley had now become wined. His voice is distinctively feminine, though it can be just as loud and just as annoying as it was back on Earth, maybe even more so. Carrying a staff and wearing a green cloak for camouflage, Bradley struggled to keep up with his scantily clad girlfriend, Amanda.
They continued traveling through the swamp for another hour, the sky turning ever darker as dusk turned to night. "Well, I guess we should settle in for another night of rotating guard duty." Sighed Amanda as she sat down softly on a downed log. Meanwhile, Bradley struggled with some slime vines, "Damn slime vines, do they have to keep rubbing up in my cunt like that. When I get back I'm never complaining about my erectile dysfunction again." Getting his foot entangled from the vine, he gave it a good whack with his staff. "Can't you just summon another succubus to keep watch?" He complains. "Last time I did, it went berserk and tried to eat you, remember?" Amanda shot back, an angry snarl on her face.
With a sad sigh, Bradley sat down next to her and rested his head against her shoulder. "I'm sorry Amanda. I just want to go home, back to my own body, back to my own life. I keep getting wrapped up in my own problems that I forget you're in the same boat I'm in." Giving him a smile, she gently pets his head, "Yeah, I'm sorry too. I never meant to get you into this mess. When we get back, I promise to make it up to you." She smiles at him seductively, and Bradley finds himself getting aroused in the way females do. "Well, I may have high libido at home, but here I have the tools to do something about it. Why put it to waste?" Bradley smiles and leans into her, letting his cloak fall to the ground.
The two have an intimate session of lovemaking, ending with Bradley's smaller, delicate body resting on top of Amanda's, wrapped in her loving arms. He rests peacefully in her embrace, a satisfied smile on both their faces as she gently pets his naked form. "As much as I want to get us back home, I'd love to keep you in this form. It's much more attractive, and it's your mind I fell in love with." She speaks quietly to him, knowing he can't hear because he is asleep. The night passes by without any other interests, the pair shifting duties three times over the course of the night. The next morning, after having a breakfast of Slime Fruit (tastes better that the name suggests), the duo again head south, towards the caves of clan Gurglemeister.
Many skirmishes against snakes and worms take place during the first several hours of the days travel, resulting in Bradley's cloak to become little more than tattered rags from the acids of several monster stomachs. Finally, around midday, they reach the opening of the cave. "Finally, we made it. We're going to need new equipment and several dozen bottles of life and mana potions." Exclaims Amanda as they enter the eerie maw of the cavern. "Thank heavens for my cure spell, or we'd have run out of life potions an hour ago." Bradley comments as they round the first turn in the darkened caverns. "Well, we might just run out yet, here comes more worms!" Amanda exclaims as twenty hungry, green cave worms smash through the walls and charge for the two. "Shit, they are trapping us in!" Curses Bradley as a dozen more worms burst in from behind.
The battle is much ore compact in the enclosed area of the cave, finding both of them traveling through worm intestines several times, depleting their remaining potion reserves. As Bradley begins sliding down the throat of another worm, he cries out to Amanda, "We're out of potions, and I can't get free. Amanda, help me!" Turning to see his plight, Amanda pulls her sword from the chest of a now dead worm and rushes to his aid, but is head butted by another worm before reaching him. The worms' numbers have been reduced dramatically, but she still had to slice through three worms before reaching his worm. With a frantic cry, she plunges her sword again and again through the slimy maw of the worm, the struggling bulge in it's stomach shrinking and becoming calmer by the moment. Before she can plunge the final blow through it's head, her arm, still wielding her sword, is engulfed in the wet, slimy gunk of another worms maw. The worm with her lover uses the distraction to burrow back through the wall, making it's retreat.
Having finished off the remaining worms, she runs down the tunnel created by the fleeing worm. Her face slick with tears, she cries out his name as the minutes go by. Finally, she reaches a fresh pile of dung, her heart twisting from within her as she knows that this is all that's left of her lover. Dropping to her knees, she fishes his skull out of the warm, moist feces. Crying uncontrollably, she brings it to her face and gently nuzzles again it, not caring if she gets fecal matter on her. "Bradley! BRADLEYYYYYY!!!" She screams pleading for herself to wake up from this nightmare. She sit's there for hours, crying and screaming and pleading for Bradley, for him to come back to her, for the gods to take her instead. Finally, putting the skull down, she rises to her feet, fists clenched, an aura of flames shrouding her form. With eyes glowing red with hatred, she disappears quickly into the tunnels, fading from view.
