Now, Chapter 12:
Vivi woke in darkness. Or at least that’s what she first assumed. The soft sensual moaning and warm softness around her was a good reminder that she was not in fact in an inn but buried amongst the cum filled bellies of dozens of horny goblins.
After a moment she realised what had woken her from her sleep, Fey was struggling, trying to move above her. After a minute of shifting and awkwardly wobbling the centaur lifted upward and a ray of sun was let into Vivi’s cummy hormonal cave. She drew in air through her nose trying to scent the outside air. Nope, the fresh air from outside barely made any difference, everything still stank of cum and musk and well fucked girls.
She shifted her hips and felt the last of Fey’s now soft cock slip free from her puffy reddened folds with a soft fwup, a trickle of cum flowed out with it, the last leftovers outside her closed-off womb.
“Vivi? Are you okay?”
“Mmmm, never better,” said the fox girl caressing her pregnant looking belly. It wasn’t large but that might have been for the best. Being reliant on Flora’s goodwill was not something she particularly wanted after being responsible for unleashing a dozen curious slime monsters on the gnome’s pussy. The quantity wasn’t that surprising in the end she decided, not after what Fey had done, creating a small hill of cum filled bellies, of course the centaur was running a little low on spunk.
The centaur’s motions became more controlled, her hooves balancing awkwardly on top of the taut green-skinned bellies of the many goblins. Vivi took her chance and began struggling free, clambering over the goblin’s bodies and climbing out into the mid-afternoon sunshine. She had apparently not slept long in the musky miasma, only a nap. She yawned and stretched her arms as she pulled free.
Out of the corner of her eye she spotted their captain at the bottom of the green hill.
“You know we should really kill all these goblins, right?” said the elf.
Fey’s head snapped around. “NO! THEY ARE ALL MINE!” she roared. Her eyes went round and she slapped her hands over her mouth with a squeak. “Uhm- Uhm- I mean to say, maybe it’s okay if we let them live maybe? We took care of the dangeous male ones r-right? Uhm- p-please?”
She glanced between Ellaria and Vivi who were giving her shocked looks at her outburst.
“Well, I suppose I can understand that you have some strong feelings on the matter since you did sleep with… all of them,” said Ellaria after a moment.
“We’ll let them live?”
“Yes but we may get the reward docked. Although I could lie… hmm.”
“W-what about the slimes?”
“What about them?”
“Wasn’t there a reward for those as well? Although we didn't take up the job.”
“Mmm true, but that probably won’t count for the reward since we didn't sign on for it, although…” The elf furrowed her brow and tapped at her chin, deep in thought.
While she was busy thinking Vivi and Fey began making their way down the green hill, slipping from bouncy belly to bouncy belly eliciting cries and moans as they squeezed each goblin with their weight and caused little spurting fountains of cum to spray from their well-used pussies.
Vivi made it down first and hefted her pregnant looking belly. She still wasn’t sure if she was happy or sad that it was smaller than when she had been filled by drinking from Flora at the hot spring. It was less cum which was bad true, but on the other hand she was more easily able to move about and would be able to fight within reason, plus she would be able to carry it for longer without getting tired and didn't need to use her arms to hold it up. She mulled over the pros and cons until she reluctantly decided she preferred it smaller, although if they were set to stay in a town for a little while she promised herself to find a way to become a fox girl blimp once more.
Fey came down next, her hooves impacting with the dusty ground. She paused and couldn't help but snatch looks at Ellaria, the elf was still completely stark naked. Surreptitiously looking over her body Fey wondered if her eyes were fooling her or if the elf was somehow even more spectacularly beautiful and attractive, in fact, she was pretty sure she was. Her mind wandered back to what had happened, she’d used her Limit Break on Ellaria, and that Limit Break fixed absolutely everything, Ellaria had been made into the physically perfect version of herself, and being an elf that meant she had a really really high ceiling for what perfection meant. Fey swallowed. This was not a good development for controlling her attraction to the elf, she could already feel her groin area tingling with arousal and interest.
“Uhm, Ella, w-would you mind putting some clothes on?”
The elf blinked at her and then looked down at herself, seemingly only now realising she was butt naked.
“Oh, my apologies, I hadn’t noticed.”
“How do you not notice being naked?” said Vivi stretching her limbs and doing after nap warm-ups.
“Well I am an elf, elves are naturally habitual nudists. Being naked puts you closer to nature which is something all elves have an instinct toward.”
“Are you saying you are an accidental nudist?”
“...Yes.”
“Elves are all posh toffs but you all have a secret embarrassing nudist fetish? Is that what you are saying?” said Flora floated down beside them. A goblin girl seemed to be sleeping on her back, her body splayed across Flora and her expansive belly.
“Not quite, but I suppose the natural complexities are going to go over your head.”
Flora put her chin in her hand thinking. “The important question is how can I use this information to prank any annoying elves I come across.”
Ellaria held up a finger, paused, then sighed. “It’s not important, we should return to town, I would rather not spend all night out here for what was a small job.”
The elf turned to go, then stopped as she realised she had forgotten to put clothes on. She pulled a pair of leather trousers and a puffy-sleeved white blouse from her dimensional bag and swiftly pulled them on. Apparently the elf’s run hadn’t been completely purposeless as she had recovered the dimensional bag from the scene of the battle with the strange hobgoblin, the bag itself had been completely unharmed by the fight being proofed against fire. Ellaria elegantly brushed some dust from her shoulder and looked over herself. She nodded, seemingly satisfied with what she saw. Fey was galled that the elf somehow managed to make the simple clothes look like the clothes of royalty.
The band made their way away from the pile of goblins, which for their part let up a cacophony of moaning and begging as they watched Fey leave. Flora casually tossed the goblin off her back as she went. The suddenly awake goblin yelped as she fell amongst the cum filled pile of her friends. As they departed the solitary unfilled goblin shook a fist at them.
They passed back into the forest and soon enough found their way back to the main road. Ellaria was watching Vivi like a hawk the whole time, ready to tell the fox girl to go empty herself if she looked like she couldn't manage her cummy pseudo pregnancy. Fortunately for Vivi she had been filled with cum to a point where it was just about manageable for her, not too heavy and not too large. Ellaria eventually gave the fox girl the benefit of the doubt, which seemed to cheer Vivi up quite a bit.
As they were making their way down the road and back to town a pair of small cloaked figures became visible. The tiny two looked pitiful, cloaked in ragged brown cloaks one held onto the other, desperately trying to remain standing as they limped down the road. Fey gasped as she spotted a small trail of spotted blood left in their wake.
“H-hey, Ella, we should help them!”
“Pshh, what if they are monsters, look how ragged and pathetic they are,” grumbled Flora.
“I don't care, I want to help, I can't just leave them like that even if they are monsters, at least as long as they aren’t jerks. I’m a healer, I save people, it’s what I do.”
Ellaria raised her hands non-committaly. “It’s your choice, although be careful. In fact Vivi take point, if they do anything funny cut them to ribbons.”
Fey approached the pair as Vivi drew her long sword and crept along beside her, the sword angled at her side ready to use.
As the centaur approached she began to hear the pair softly talking, although it sounded more like the mantra of the tired and in pain, words spoken aloud to keep them going.
“-eep it together, just a little longer, we can make it and then-... we can join…”
Fey clopped up beside them, the two didn't seem to take notice. Maybe they were in worse shape than she thought? She carefully lowered herself beside the slow-moving pair and reached out a hand, her fingers touched at a hood and the diminutive figure jerked and turned, the hood falling away. A small pale face looked up at her, a pair of rounded ears above dirty hair with a few twigs stuck in it, a wilted yellow flower stuck behind her ear. Tears were already spilling from her eyes.
Fey looked down at her in shock. “Kayla!?”
“Fey! We-we found you!” The otterkin tried to desperately wipe at her teary eyes but she just kept crying harder, verging on sobbing. “We walked for so long, and the forest, we couldn't find our way back to the road! And the m-monsters! I- we almost died!”
Fey looked with dismay at the pair, what the hell were two small unarmed non-combatants doing trying to travel alone? She grabbed Kayla and pulled her close, flipping up the other’s hood revealing a bedraggled and confused Lily which she pulled close too. Closing her eyes she let her healing magic pour out into the two, rolling it through and over their bodies with a steady green light, smoothing over cuts and bruises and sore feet. The two girls gasped and shivered in her hands as they were healed, their aches and pains soothed away.
After she was done she pushed back Kayla and looked her in the eyes, not Lily though, who had her face buried in Fey’s chest and was desperately embracing her, her eyes squeezed shut.
“What the hell are you doing out here? Alone in the woods is no place for two defenceless inn keepers.”
Kayla blinked and looked down at her now healed and whole body in disbelief.
“Y-you healed me?”
“Yes, I am a healer. Now please tell me what happened Kayla.”
The stunned otterkin glanced at the rest of the band, her eyes going very round as they spotted Flora. After taking a moment to gather herself she cleared her throat.
