Xera and Her Companions #5: Invasive Species

by Sigma

I

Xera, Minerva, Gurka, and Ava all sat at a table in the corner of a tavern, staring at a pathetically small collection of gold coins.

"Oh, wait..." Ava said, putting down her large drinking stein and reaching a hand into the right cup of her bikini armor. She produced one more coin and added it to the pile.

"This is all we have left? What the fuck?" Gurka asked, looking at the others.

"Guess we're..." Minerva started, swaying where she sat in front of a stein the same size as Ava's. "...Guess we're sleeping outside again, she said, giggling. Her face was flush and her eyes glossed over.

"Unbelievable..." Xera said, looking at the sorceress and shaking her head.

Minerva poked the Amazon in the right tit. "At least I have pillows to use. Hehe."

Xera swatted her hand away and looked at Ava,  who was still downing her drink. She then turned to Gurka. "I don't suppose you want to join them? Our coin isn't enough for a room at the inn, might as well drink it."

Gurka folded her muscular arms and shook her head. "The drink here tastes like piss. I'm fine."

Ava, her face flush as well, leaned her head against Gurka's shoulder and nuzzled the orc. "You're so strong, "she said, fondling her muscles. Minerva giggled uncontrollably at the sight.

"And I don't like drinking with lightweights," Gurka said, pushing the knight off of her. She then slid Ava some of the coins. "Go get some more, you two, while the adults figure this out."

Ava jumped up from her seat next to Gurka after snatching up the coin. Minerva stood, tripped over her seat next to Xera, laughed, and then got up and joined Ava as they sauntered to the bar.

"We could raid some of the houses here," Gurka suggested.

"We JUST got out of those cages a week ago in that other town!" Xera reminded her with a scowl. 

"Fine! Fine...maybe they have a bounty board here, or we can do something for the city watch," Gurka said, thinking, before her face lit up. "Unless they have prize fighting here. I used to bust skulls for coin all the time until I rounded up that warband."

"What is wrong with you? You enjoy violence entirely too much,"   Xera said to her. "Still...none of those are bad ideas..."

Gurka looked around the tavern at the occupants. The majority of them were men, solidly built by years of labor. The orc nodded. "Yeah...I can take anyone here..."

"Excuse me, ladies."

Xera and Gurka turned and looked up at a rotund man who approached their table, his bushy black beard taking up most of his face.

"My name is Jakub, and I couldn't help but hear about your plight. I have a proposal for you and your party," he said, motioning to the bar where Minerva and Ava were laughing loudly and slamming their steins together.

Xera and Gurka looked at each other before looking back at Jakub. "What kind of proposal?" Xera asked him.

"You see," Jakub said, sitting down in a seat. "We've been having trouble with some beasts nesting in the hills north of town these past few weeks. If you and your companions can eradicate them all, your money troubles will be solved.

They looked at each other and Gurka shrugged. "I was kind of looking forward to beating people up, but I could go hunting."

"I suppose that settles it, then," Xera said before she and Jakub shook hands.

"Excellent!" Jakub slammed a hand on the table and laughed. "You'll find me here when it's done.

When he left, Xera turned to Gurka and they both turned when they heard a commotion coming from the bar. Minerva was cheering loudly while Ava and a man at the bar were trying to down their drinks as fast as they could, drawing a crowd of rowdy onlookers encouraging the two on.

Gurka sighed and leaned back in back in her chair. "We're going to have to keep those two away from the fire tonight."

II

"Ugh, my eyes....why is it so bright?" Minerva complained, shielding her eyes from the sun while she and Ava trailed behind Gurka and Xera the next morning. She staggered into the knight, who caught her and held her up before staggering herself and holding her stomach.

"We couldn't wait another day to do this?" Ava asked as she followed the rest of the group through the rocky hills north of town. She wrapped her arms around her flat stomach.

"No one told you two fools to drink so much," Gurka called back, her axe over her shoulder. "We should have come alone," she said to Xera.

"Agreed," Xera replied, looking back at Ava and Minerva, who were barely standing. She gripped her sword at her waist and continued on. "Let's just hope we can get this done quickly..." she then stopped and held her arm out to stop Gurka. The two of them looked up, only to have Ava and Minerva walk right into them. Gurka shoved the two back and then turned back around.

On a large rock just ahead, a strange looking beast hunched down and watched them. It had a long, serpentine body and four muscular legs. It's head was long and pointed, and its eyes glowed yellow. It let out a high pitched clicking sound and soon, several others just like it appeared on the surrounding hilltops, all of them eyeing the party.

Xera drew her sword and Gurka lowered her axe. Minerva readied her staff, though she still swayed on her feet. She then looked around.

"Where's Ava?" the sorceress asked. The others looked around and saw the knight running back, into the distance. She disappeared behind another large rock and, moments later, they could hear her emptying the contents of her stomach.

Gurka and Xera ignored her and looked forward at the creatures. As one, they raised their weapons, yelled, and charged, sending the beasts into a frenzy.

The battle came quickly, with creatures charging at Gurka and Xera, but sword and axe cut the beasts down one by one, causing many of the surviving monsters to second guess attacking. Even though the two warriors were vastly outnumbered, they worked together, slaying the beasts as they came.

The monsters circled around them, hissing at them threateningly and lunging and then falling back, but Xera and Gurka continued attacking.

Minerva watched the battle unfold, and saw that the many dozens of creatures were going to overwhelm her friends, with more of the creatures pouring down from the surrounding hills, attracted by the sound.

"I have to help them!" The sorceress said, raising a shaky hand. The after effect of last night's drinking still had a hold on Minerva, and she fought her body to focus so she could channel her spell. She had the beasts in her sights, and her palm glowed with pale blue energy as she began reciting the spell.

"This is too easy!" Gurka laughed, striking down more of the beasts.

Xera stood on top of a pile of the fallen monsters and cut down more as they came. "Easy money!" she said to Gurka, fighting back more of the monsters.

"Heh..." Gurka chuckled and turned back around. She then snapped to attention when something fast moving caught her attention. "Wha...Oh, shit!"

The ball of energy collided with the ground right in front of Gurka and Minerva's heart stopped as she froze in awe at the size of the explosion.

"Oops..." the sorceress said, covering her mouth in shock.

The blast shook the ground and sent the creatures flying in every direction, but Minerva could clearly see Xera and Gurka get caught in the blast and flung in opposite directions by the force.

"Ugh...that little fucking witch..." Gurka groaned, her ears ringing and her body covered with dirt kicked up by the explosion. She looked around for her axe, her vision swimming and her skull throbbing. All she saw around her were serpentine black shapes.

Gurka climbed to her feet and saw that she was surrounded by at least a dozen of the beasts, many standing on the bodies of their slain pack members. They screeched and one charged, only to be knocked back by Gurka's fist, but a second one leapt onto the orc's muscular back and pulled her down as she tried to pull it off. The other creatures then swarmed, piling onto the orc and dragging her to the ground.

"Minerva! I'm going to kill you!" was the last thing Gurka said before she vanished beneath the crowd of monsters.

***

Xera was on her hands and knees, her vision blurred from her head hitting the ground after being thrown by the explosion. She looked for her sword and found it laying nearby, but when she went to grab it, a long tongue wrapped around her wrist and kept it away. She looked at the monster on the other end and raised her other hand to strike at it, but another tongue grabbed her other wrist and pulled her in the opposite direction.

"Damn!" the Amazon cursed, pulling against the creatures. Two more tongues found her ankles and pulled her down. She struggled against the monsters' combined strength, the curves of her body jiggling as she fought, but several other creatures swarmed the Amazon warrior and soon, she too was swallowed by the tide.

***

"Oh, no no no! This isn't good!" Minerva said, watching both Gurka and Xera fall. She ran to help them but was blindsided by another of the creatures when it ran into her and knocked her to the ground. Before she could get back up, she was pinned down by its weight.

"No!" Minerva shrieked, trying to push the creature off of her. It's tongue snaked out of its mouth, sampling her skin while holding her down, and soon Minerva realized that several others approached and surrounded her. Their clawed hands pulled at her robes, ripping them, and their tongues began exploring the struggling sorceress's body as she screamed.

***

"Ugh...what just happened?" Ava asked, walking from behind the rock and wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. "Where is everyone?" she asked out loud.

She heard a high pitched shriek and turned to see a small crowd of the scaly creatures in one place.

"Get off of me you monsters!" Minerva yelled.

Ava reached for her sword just as several of the creatures around Minerva perked up and looked in her direction. "Oh no..." the knight said, turning in the other direction to flee when the creatures all began running at her, but she only got a few steps before realizing the rock she had just been behind now served as a perch for another one of the creatures,  which had snuck behind her.

Ava yelped as the monster jumped off the rock and onto her before she could draw her sword. They both went down, and she managed to push the creature off of her just moments before being dragged by down and overwhelmed by the pack that had just been chasing her.

***

"Ugh...curse the day you were born, sorceress..." Gurka growled.

The day had long since given way to night, but the chattering of the beasts never stopped. The chaos of the battle was long over, and the massive pack of monsters had spent the time since enjoying the fruit of their conquest.

Gurka lay on the ground exhausted, her naked, muscular form splayed and covered in the sticky ejaculate of dozens of the monsters that had ravaged her over time. Even then, another of the beasts climbed on top of the orc, erect cock dragging along her inner thigh, and she was powerless to stop the creature as it thrust itself into of her.

It put the claws of its forelegs on her shoulders and began thrusting in and out of her. Her body rocked with the motion, and all Gurka could do with what little energy she still had was grunt and try to push the beast away. She stopped counting them hours ago, they just kept coming one after another, and it didn't seem like the others fared any better.

"I said I was a sorry!" Minerva repeated, bent over and ass in the air as she was mounted from behind. Two other creatures held the girl down while she was being penetrated, and all around them, many of the other creatures watched it happen.

"Wh-where are Xera and Ava?" Minerva asked Gurka, squealing with each thrust of the creature's cock in her ass.

"How...ugh!...how the fuck should I know?" Gurka growled, the monster mounting her penetrating deeper and faster. "You probably vaporized them with that stupid spell!" she said. The creature mounting Gurka lowered its head as it continued thrusting, and looked at her with what seemed like a mocking stare. The orc narrowed her eyes and mustered enough strength to reach up. She then wrapped her hands around the thing's neck and squeezed, and when it began flailing in panic, its cock still inside her, Gurka smirked and squeezed tighter.

***

Nearby, Xera's body quivered and as two beasts penetrated the Amazon at once. One thrust into her pussy while the other fucked her in her ass. The one behind her held her arms in place, while the best in front of played with her tits and drew its tongue across her neck and chest. Several others all around them lay on the ground asleep, having had their fill of the Amazon throughout the day, and her body was so exhausted from the constant ravaging that she couldn't do anything but try to think of a way out of this. The monster penetrating her pussy hissed, and a fresh load of its semen shot into the Amazon and then onto her legs and stomach when it pulled itself out. It covered the old semen that he dried and caked Xera's skin, and the monster continue playing with her tender tits and erect nipples even after it finished.

Xera looked up at the full moon in the sky and scanned the area around her again to look for her sword, or Gurka's axe, or anything that she could get her hands on. In the distance, she saw two other creatures walking across the area dragging something behind them. Her eyes widened when she saw a dirty, matted mess of blonde hair and a pale, white thigh flashing as a leg defiantly kick at the creatures.

"Let me go!" Ava screamed. He armor had been completely stripped away and her panties were in tatters. Dirt covered her supple flesh and face, but Xera could see fury in her blue eyes. 

"Ava!" Xera called out to her.

The creatures dragging Ava paused and looked in Xera's direction. At the same time, the two creatures assaulting Xera stopped and looked back at the pair dragging Ava.

That instant, the creatures on Xera dropped the Amazon to the ground and began running at the two dragging Ava behind them. The commotion didn't wake the sleeping creatures, even after the two monsters with Ava growled in challenge, dropped their prey and began attacking the two that ran at them.

Xera watched the fight unfold in confusion. The creatures were in a tangle of limbs and scales and gnashing teeth. They tussled for several seconds as Ava got up to her feet and used the opportunity and try and flee. The creatures, all four of them, sensed this and ran the knight down as a pack, dragging her to the ground and beginning their assault on her anew.

Xera took a moment to collect herself as the creatures climbed on Ava, shoving hardened cocks wherever they could go on her naked body. She punched, and they restrained her hands. She kicked and they restrained her legs. One shoved its cock down Ava's throat and began thrusting. Soon, she was rendered helpless as her body surrendered to them, their clawed hands exploring every free inch as they continued penetrating her.

Xera looked around again, trying to find something she could use. Her sword was nowhere to be found, but a smile crossed the Amazon's dirty, cum stained face when she saw a rock, larger than her fist, on the ground. She snatched it up in one hand and stood. She walked toward the creatures, erect nipples swaying in the cool night air and with a limp in her step as her raw asshole throbbed. Still, her smile widened and she clenched the rock in her hand as she walked toward the disgusting beasts as they had their way with her squealing companion.

***

"I'm not going to be able to sit for a week..." Ava complained, rubbing her ass as she limped behind Xera some time later. She looked back at the trail of monster corpses and then at the bruises on her knuckles. She looked at Xera, who still clutched a rock, now slick with black blood, in one hand. She had found her sword among the creatures and now held that in her other hand.

As Ava followed close behind, she look around until a glint of metal in the moonlight caught her eye. She ran to it and found her sword and shield, and fixed the sword belt to her naked waist while catching back up with Xera.

They spent several quiet moments walking back the way they had originally come, eventually having to walk over and around the bodies of more of the beasts. In the center of the scene, Gurka sat on top of a small pile of the monsters, pulling at a severed arm with her teeth. Minerva sat against the bottom of the pile, an exhausted look on her face.

Xera and Ava paused and Gurka turned and looked down at them, swallowing the meat in her mouth before raising the chewed arm.

"Tastes like chicken," the orc said, grinning.

"You're disgusting..." Ava scoffed, shaking her head.

Gurka simply laughed and blew her a kiss.

Xera dropped the rock in her hand and put her sword on her shoulder. "If you two are quite finished...let's find out where these things nest and end this."

Gurka slid down the hill on her ass and landed on her feet. "Best idea I've heard today," she said.  "This one doesn't use any more damn spells, though," she pointed at Minerva.

Minerva got up and rubbed her shoulder, avoiding eye contact with the others.

All four women stood stark naked, dirty, and covered in dried monster sperm as a cool night breeze carried through the area. Gurka then cracked her knuckles and pushed forward.

"Well, let's get on with it. No use in standing around looking like fools."

III

The tavern patrons sat in stunned silence, watching four naked women standing around a table with the hide of one of the beasts from the hills on it. Jakub sat in front of them, looking at the creature and then at the four busty beauties.

"It's done," Xera said. "We went and wiped out their nest down to the last. These things won't be bothering your people anymore."

"Wonderful!" Jakub said, a big smile on his face. "It certainly looks like you four ladies earned your pay today," he told them before snapping his fingers. Another man brought over a large satchel, heavy with coin, and put it on the table. "I think you'll find there's enough here to keep you ladies happy for some time."

Minerva reached for the bag, but Ava smacked her hand away and looked herself. The glare on her face and Gurka's said enough that Minerva cowered behind Xera.

"It's mating season for those things, you know. They're especially aggressive this time of year," Jakub explained. "I couldn't send my own boys in, knowing that."

"What...?" Xera asked, her eye twitching.

"Anyway, you all have done me a massive favor. Their nest sits on a large deposit of minerals that I've been trying to claim. Now I can, thanks to you all!" he laughed and stood up. "Let's go, lads!" He signaled to the bar in general.

The heroines looked around as the men in the tavern finished their drinks and got up. They gathered up shovels, pick axes, and various other tools before filing out the door.

"Good day, ladies," Jakub said, leaving the tavern behind his work crew.

The four heroines looked at each other in stunned silence and watched the men leave. Xera gritted her teeth and grabbed the hilt of sword while following Jakub. "I'm going go to go have a few words..."

"Wait!" Gurka said, grabbing her arm and pulling her back. "We know this is all this one's fault," she pointed at Minerva.

"W-what?" Minerva stepped back, clenching her staff.

"Who was it that said, 'oh, Ava and I will just have a few drinks?' Who was it that nearly blew us all to hell when we already had those monsters beaten?"

Minerva eyed the door and swallowed a lump in her throat as Gurka walked toward her with a fiery expression. "Gurka, stay away from me..." Minerva said, inching toward the door.

"I'm gonna tan your skinny little hide," Gurka threatened.

"Disgusting..." Ava said.

"Gurka..." Xera approached the orc.

"I mean it, Gurka!" Minerva said, putting more distance between them. "I'm not going to let you bully me!"

"That staff is going up your ass, sorceress," Gurka's gaze was fiery, her muscles tense.

Minerva thrust her staff forward and shouted a word in an arcane language. A bright flash erupted and Gurka staggered back.

"Agh!" The orc screamed, covering her eyes while Minerva darted past her and ran for the door.

Gurka shook her head to clear her vision and took off after her. "Come here, you little witch!"

Xera simply sighed, shook her head, and ran after Gurka.

"Wait!" Ava started to follow. She ran back and scooped up the gold, nearly falling over when she shouldered the satchel. "Goddess! This is heavy!" she said before leaving the tavern.

The End
