Ground Floor, Bar Room & Stage

Bella felt the wet sticky tongue wrap around her slim ankle the saliva soaking into the soft nylon of her stocking, the almost velvety tongue wrapping around her calf just about the ankle strap of her shoe. She squealed as it gripped her legs and dragged her backwards, her hands just barely keeping a grip on the rifle. Rolling over, her torn dress flapping open as she did, he blood running from the graze across her back, rifle in hand she levelled it at the amphib. The muzzle of the weapon a huge black hole pointed straight at his head as she cocked the high powered gun, clack chack! "Eat this frog face!" she yelled in defiance as she squeezed the trigger!

(sorry, I had left my laptop over at my cousin's place when I was visiting last week; just got it back today )

The blast from the gun knocked him back, the ground beneath her shaking as his massive form fell onto the planks. "Mrrrrrrr!" he exclaimed, despite the blast he reeled his tongue back and then lifted the barmaid/manageress above the floor then slammed her back into the floor then he smacked her into the wall, bashing her right shoulder into it before letting her go. She fell upon the creatures small viney tongue; the quivering snake like appendage rubbed at her crotch and curled up and between her breasts before it coiled around her slender neck, tightening with a sticky grip before plunging her face first into the floor boards!

All the while, Kraag could feel his greenish blood seep out from his wound; the high calibre round was painful as it was powerful, but he was a war-toad; he'd suffered much more and worse in his service. He slowly stood back up, leaning over one knee with a pained grunt. It was a mere fleshwound for him, but it had been a while since his war service. He continues to reel the woman in with his tongue, flexing his tongue's grip upon her neck.

The battering Belladonna received knocked the wind out of her and left her dazed, the rifle slipped from her grip and clattered across the floor landing almost right below its former position on the wall. The amphib's tongue wormed its way around her body the slick organ had an almost velvet like texture where it touched her skin. Then it looped around her neck, squeezing hard, she coughed and choked as the frogman's powerful appendage began strangling her. Bella's legs thrashed heels drumming the floor as she writhed and struggled, her hands reaching up instinctively trying to claw the tongue away from her neck!

(That's ok, thought I'd scared you off with the rifle nice to see you back ^^)

He lifted himself up, holding his gushing wounds with one webbed hand while the other reached out and wrapped easily around the woman's waist, his tongue releasing her neck. It uncoiled, but it lapped at her smooth right cheek before drawing back into his mouth. "You shouldn't have done what you've done, my little friend." he says with saliva running down his chin. He walks over to Veccna, still holding the bleeding and suspended woman in his free hand and then pushes her body against Veccna's belly. Her head pushed into the flabby wall that pushed out the chest plate, deep enough so the woman could hear the gunslinger within as well as illicit a belch from his partner. "You hear that? That is your fate, my little toadstool." he threatened, pulling her away from his partner's stomach. He turned the woman towards him now, and his tongue drew out from his mouth, slipping down her blouse between the valley's of her breasts, inching down her tone torso and then finding it's place down by her archways of venus, he manipulated his tongue, curling it under and then around the strap of her underwear, and after a strong reeling tug the sound of tearing fabric was heard and the tongue withdrew, slipping back up the way it had entered, pulling off the woman's dainty panties from her cleavage and hovered them about her face before he let go and let them drop to the floor. He croaked. "A souvenir for when you finally leave my body as a pile of unrecognizable filth." he says licking his lips. "I'll be honest... I've never ate human, so this will be entertaining!" he says, yawning open his jaws, and slowly and painfully for Bella, drew the woman into the gaping tunnel within. Saliva dripped from the roof of his mouth and had dripped onto the back of her head, which then also began to crawl around the base of her neck; her head poised into looking straight down his rippling and sweaty throat!

She was dazed, the room was quite literally spinning, she felt something tugging at her knickers, was aware of something taunting her.
Then something warm slick and soft pressed against her head from inside it she could hear moans of anguish and loud gurgling sounds. As her focus came back to her she looked up at Veccna confused as to how he moaned from inside his stomach, then the realisation hit her, it was the girl he'd eaten that was moaning!
Bella's attention turned to the toad man who held her his words trailed off, something about unrecognisable filth. Her mouth opened to protest to try and talk her way out of this situation, instead she screamed as Kraag's mouth opened engulfing her head! Her cry was silenced as the frog man's drool coated tongue smeared over her face stifling her cries and protests. Her long legs kicked and struggled Bella felt the cool air of the bar against her exposed sex and brought her knees together to try and preserve her modesty. Despite the way she dressed she wasn't a slut and the thought of her fate right now dangling from this creature's mouth half stripped and with her sex laid bare for all to see filled her with shame causing her to blush profusely!

She tasted ambrosial, his tongue instantaneously slipped between her breasts, wrapping around her torso under her dress and then curled around the hills of her swinging and kicking rears cheeks, the tip slipping around her bare womanhood, rubbing between her womanly walls rapidly back and forth. All the while he pulled her a little more inside, to mid forearm, munching on her body with small but pointed teeth. He still held the bleeding wound with one hand, but the other wrapped delicately around the woman's kicking and scything right leg. His webbed fingers curling around her thigh, lifting her dress back while his saliva coated her body, soaking through her silky clothes and rolling off her smooth and tasty flesh.

She tried to struggle to scream to protest her fate as she was eaten alive, but helpless as she was the realisation came to her that this really was the end. The mutant frog was eating her and there was nothing she could do. With that horrific revelation came another from the sounds he was making and the way his tongue licked over her flesh and his hand stroked her thigh he was enjoying her! Worse still with his tongue darting between the folds of her sex flicking backwards and forwards so was she. Her body shuddered and writhed as she fought the sensation a burning uncontrollable wave of passion rising between her legs. The moist wet pressure was building in her until she could contain it no more. With her legs jerking wildly she had the wettest most intense orgasm she'd ever had, to her trembling humiliation her juices splashed from her as she climaxed in the frog's jaws. Even as she came she felt his tongue pull her deeper and the hand wrapped around her thigh shoved her unceremoniously into the monster's throat. The gullet rippled around her pretty features urging her deeper, it stank of cheap beer and god only knew what. Ahead of her Bella could hear the ominous gurgling of the hungry stomach. Even as she was being swallowed her shapely legs still kicked hopelessly in the air.

Even as she was being swallowed her shapely legs still kicked hopelessly in the air.

The woman's trembling orgasm only made his palette water more, as her taste intensified and caused Kraag to swallow more of the young woman. Her head bulged from the thin and narrow confines of his constricting throat, wrapping around her delicate frame like a writhing and moist organic blanket. The farther she was sent down his throat, the darker and more noisy it would become. He suckled her body as the dress slowly rolled down to her waist mid swallow, her sensual legs kicked and scythed as he forced them deeper down his throat, coating them with slimy saliva. He jerked his head back a few times, and lifted his head to face the ceiling as her knees poked from his throat, and her body was a wiggling bulge in his neck. The knees were still pumping, still thrashing till he wrapped his tongue around them, the tongue slipping around her shoes and then curled around her soles before he reeled her down his throat. Her ankles kicked lightly due to the constricted movement but soon, with an audible and powerful swallow her feet were yanked down the deep abyss. He simultaneously cut off the light shining down his throat by closing his moist jaws, and his eye rolled back as he audibly swallowed hard enough to cause his body to quiver as her delicate wriggling form disappeared.

His stomach then bulged out a little, not by much since he was quite big as it was, but his bulging and scarred belly bounced with newfound weight. He croaked, ribbiting a delightful belching gurgle of victory, which also caused drool to drip down from his maw and pool onto the floor. He slowly massaged his belly and turned to Veccna. "Mmmm... I never knew how tasty humans could potentially be... She was quite the delicacy my brother in arms." he croaked-ribbited before he shuttered again, letting out another loud and almost obnoxious belch.

She was aware of every moment, every ripple of the throat urging her deeper towards her fate, every movement of the tongue lapping against her helpless body, every kick of her legs even as she tried to defy gravity with her struggles. Then she was swallowed, her struggling writhing frame gulped down forced past a tight confining sphincter into the frog's stomach. Its stank, the stench assaulted her nostrils, vomit and alcohol! Bella writhed trying to find a way out, her shape pressing against Kraag's stomach wall her features bulging his belly. Sometimes her hands or elbows, sometimes her face, pretty features contorted as she strained to get free.
Inside the walls began to press in on her the wet mess she was in began to react to her presence frothing liquids oozed from the fleshy lining, hot to the touch causing her to flinch away where ever they touched her skin. Pretty soon there was nowhere to flinch away too. She tried to scream gagging on the fumes as her struggles became both more frantic and more restricted the walls closing in on her, churning her in the digestive gloop as the frog's stomach set about digesting her alive. Fulfilling his threat to turn her into "a pile of unrecognisable filth!"

Kraag rubbed his stomach tirelessly, kneeling over and grabbing the young woman's panties and brought them to a satchel nearby, dropping the dainty item into it. "Heh heh heh, the first of many for my collection... heh heh.." he croaked cruelly, croaking as he hiccuped and belched at once. He walked behind the bar and grabbed a keg of ale, smashing it over with his elbow before he grabbed it and started chugging it down. His wounds sustained from the high powered rifle were slowly healing for the toad man. He looks in the mirror, sometimes noticing the woman's face appearing before disappearing again. He smirked, at one point as her torso was pushing against the walls of his flesh, he reached down and groped her breasts through these thin outside walls. "Ah, she was quite the tasty one indeed!" He croaked, walking over to Veccna. He turns to the other toad and snarls. "Well?! Do ya have any reason to stay here any longer? I mean, we just ate the locals." he says holding back another belch. The woman inside him was kicking up a lot of gasses, and her struggles within were both a pain and quite satisfying.

Inside, Bella's fears would increase as the secreting walls were filling the stomach with more acid. In her crouched balled-up state, she would have minutes before the acids would go above her head. Usually toad-men like them didn't fast digest prey, but since this was his first meal of human flesh, his belly was acting in defence of his belly. He licked his small pointed teeth, feeling her writhe around practically naked in the acid baths, it was quite a shame he couldn't watch her dissolve.

She cried coughing and gagging as the stench got worse, little realising it was the smell of her own flesh being stripped away by digestive enzymes that made the smell worse. Her fingers clawed pitifully against the slim coated, fleshy walls of her prison, the rubbery flesh resisting her struggles with ease. Suddenly the stomach rippled around Belladonna thrusting her beneath the hot churning soup, she clawed her way instinctively to the surface, only to be driven under again by the stomach's muscular spasm. The final time she reached the surface she knew she was done for and accepted her fate, gurgling a little as her flesh began to melt, the enzymes stripping away the top layer of skin and with it most of her nerves. For Belladonna it became almost peaceful as she was held in a warm embrace comforted in the darkness even as her flesh sloughed from her bones. it didn't smell so bad now, mostly because her nose was gone. The barmaid sank into the digestive soup her body going limp as awareness faded from her and finally death came to claim her. This wasn't the end for her body though as the frogman's stomach worked on her flesh and bones, dissolving, digesting, calcifying as it worked to extract every ounce of nourishment.

Kraag belched, and looked to Veccna who seemed to be in his own little world at the moment. Bella's body was going to be providing him with ideal nourishment indeed, and even as he feel her withering away in his stomach now, he knows that she was one of the est meal's he's eaten in a long time. His bulging belly flexing, and then retracting as the woman dissolved into nothingness.

About an hour or so passes, and there was surprisingly no one to come and shackle them or murder them for their deeds. Though, Kraag felt a pressure in his lower abdomen that needed attending too. "I'll be outside Veccna when you're ready to leave." he says, croaking as he exits the building.

Outside, the giant toad could see despite there being afternoon light, hardly any soul was in the street. He croaked, and attended his lower abdomen pressure again. He waddled around the building, away from the street. "I promised you lady, that you'd become nothing but filth by the time I was done with you." he croaked again, as he turned then squatted down.

He could feel both the pressure and the woman's remaining remains exit his body, piling onto the earth in the little alley outside and around the corner from the entrance. As he squeezed her tell tale half-melted bones and waste fully out he stood tall again and let out a sigh of relief. He turns, laughs, then walks away from the steaming pile of filth that had remained of Bella, her partially exposed skull was peeking from the pile's steamy waste.

It had been a while, so Jace decided it was best to go down to take a breather after going through one of his... well he still wasn't sure what they were called. He called them panic attacks, but they were on a more psychic level of disturbances. If he went through these he would lose track of time and be "blind" of his five senses without being able to be self aware of himself.

So as he descended the stairs he expected the lovely if not a tad thorny Miss Bella would be down to greet (or kill) him. The thought of her killing him had entered his mind briefly. Though it was a tad hard to believe, he could sense the blood she had on her. He knew she was probably more comfortable with a gun than a bra, but she may have preferred a bra over the tight fitting outfit she had to wear. "I'm glad she can't read my mind right now, she may just hit me, and not just because of the kiss earlier either..." he says rubbing the back of his head with a sigh. When he turned the corner though, Bella was not there. No, the bar was empty and looked smashed to hell. Gunpowder was still thick in the air, and Jace kept his hand close to his revolve while he looked about.

There was spilled alcohol, blood and slimy residue piled on the floor which looked like a large was of saliva. "What the hell happened here?" He said out loud. "Bella? Hey!" He called out, jumping behind the bar to look for the manageress and to see if she was in her office or not.

Belladonna wrote:When the door closed she slid from beneath the sheets taking a moment to stretch lazily as she woke up properly. She thumbed the shower on and stepped in turning it up to hot to try and rinse away the memories of the dream. Once washed and dried she looked at the maid outfit and sighed, she hated that this had become her lot but also resigned herself to it knowing that she had to keep a low profile. Eventually washed, dressed, hair and make up done she stepped from her room and went downstairs stopping beside Jace who seemed to have been stood mesmerised by the damage the whole time she'd been getting ready. Her blue eyes swept over the scene taking it all in, her face showing little of the sense of dismay she felt!

Stepping back into the barroom he scratched the back of his head and let out a small sigh. "Yeah... like I said, I haven't got a clue. It looks like the entire three ring circus got drunk and smashed the place to hell. While they were at it, they shot the walls too with those pistols and rifle over there." he said pointing at the weapons scattered across the floor. "The town Constabulary must be taking the day off, or non existent."

Belladonna wrote:
"What the hell happened here?!?" she blurted as she took another step "This is going to take more than a feather duster to clean up!" She gestured to her outfit trying to break the mood with humour.

With that, Jace's face cracked with a smile, and inflated a little, doing his best to hold back laughter. "That wasn't funny!" He thought, but his sense of humour thought that was great. He expelled some chuckling and clapped his chest a little since his sides hurt from holding it in. He didn't want to sound like a loon in the midst of a chaotic scene.

Belladonna wrote:
Slowly she moved down into the bar area, throwing a question over her shoulder to Jace "Is there anyone down there?" before turning to the room and raising her voice "Hello! Anyone there?"

He looked up, quickly recovering from his suppressed laughing fit as fast as he could. "Not that I know of. I looked around briefly but I didn't exactly explore any of the other areas. I was kinda hoping to find you." he said and then quickly added: "...because I thought you may have known what was going on around here." he says coughing into his fist before he walked up to Bella. He sighed, and reached into his jacket, pulling out a sleek automatic handgun and handed it to her by holding onto the barrel. "Just in case... I loan it to you for now. You never know what we may come across and well, I've checked when you showed me to my room last night and there's no weapons under the bar. It's a forty-five, custom fifteen shell magazine and rifled barrel for increased accuracy. It's not a feather duster, but I think it should come in handy all the same." he says with a smile and a wink.

She took the gun from him and turned to one side pointing the barrel across the room towards a wall. With a deft movement she dropped the mag and checked the ammo count before pulling the slide back and locking the breach open checking to see the weapon wasn't live. She looked up at him her eyes frosty cold all hints of her earlier humour gone "I guess its one round shy" she held the breach towards him waiting for him to drop a spare round into it, before she let the slide flick forwards and set the mag home clicking it into place she levelled the hot weapon at his head "Who are you? Who do you work for?....... How the FUCK did you find me?!?" She didn't want to kill him but on the other hand she didn't want to be caught either if that meant he had to die well it was sad but she would pull the trigger.
"I don't plan on asking again!..... How did you find me?!?" The hard expression on her face would leave him with no doubt that if he blinked in a way she didn't like his brains would be adding to the mess in the already destroyed bar. She was scared and prepared to go to any lengths to protect her anonymity.

He raised his arms and took a shallow step back at the start, he was about to say something, but her commanding voice made him wait till she was done. "Again... I wished that I foresaw this..." he sighed, looking not at her, but at the grooved barrel that was pointing at him. "Okay, okay... there's no need for this... we are on the same side here, okay?" he says looking up at her blue eyes with his. He gulped. "I'm who I say I am, I'm Jace Farsythe. I work for nobody, just listen... I didn't ''find you'', per say..." he says coughing a little, then he added. "Look... I'm not against you. You see... I have... a peculiar gift. It lets me... feel things, see things. Future things. But as you can possibly tell it doesn't work all the time." he says as he backs into the bar, while she continued to aim the gun at his head. "I-I can also look into people's minds. Its not a process I can always avoid, but I usually keep out of the areas people try to lock up... and-well it's been like this since I was a child. I use this skill to usually rip off gangsters, I get better prices on my wares that way." he says gulping, feeling sweat trickle down his face. "If-if you don't believe me, I can also do a skill that allows me to see what a person is seeing. I call it sight-jacking." he says, closing his eyes. "To do this, I have to close my eyes... I can then see what your seeing."

She poked him in the forehead with the barrel of the gun "Eyes open Mister and see this!" She believed him, its hard to lie convincingly with a gun pointed at your head and he'd divulged far more than she'd asked him to. Besides the idea that an agent would track her down then hang around with offers to help her clean up was fairly ridiculous, if an agent or mercenary located HER they'd run a mile and call for back up!
"Lets say I believe you, I completely believe you, but that still leaves me in a difficult position, you see" she tilted her head and the gun "Now I've blown my cover, and you might have already worked it out but now you know for sure I'm not just a barmaid" She shook her head slowly "The smart thing for me would be to kill you, but I think your talents might be useful to me so here is what I propose!" she gestured to one of the still upright tables and took a bottle of vodka and two glasses from the bar taking her eyes and the gun off him, before sitting herself and putting the gun, bottle and glasses on the table.
"I think we can help each other" she continued as she poured two glasses "I have a particular skill set which I'm sure you'd find useful, and your ability could give me a warning of any danger heading my way." She took a sip of the vodka "So do we have a deal or do I have to kill you?"

He opened his eyes, blinking them. When she removed the gun he breathed a sigh of relief. Listening to her ultimatum he shrugged a little, and rubbed the back of his head. "Well, I will forewarn you, it does have it's ups and downs. I don't get to see a huge jump in the future, only like a few seconds or a minute at most; so if there is any danger it will be a split second deal." he says walking up to the table and then took a seat. "And with an offer like that, I would only be an idiot to say shoot me. Yeah, I can welcome this deal." he says grabbing the other glass before gently clinking it against hers. "Also... it's funny how you were thinking that I would offer to clean up; cause the fact is that I was. Are you sure that you're not a little ''touched with the same gift'' as well?" he says with a wink before sipping from the glass. It was a bit strong, but he's had worse.

She leant back in her chair, and sighed heavily as though the worries of the world were on her "I'm sorry I had to be so brutal, but the facts are I have a lot of enemies out there and my life is very confusing right now" Bella didn't bother telling him about the huge chunks she couldn't remember or the nightmares that seemed so vivid or even and some might say most importantly why she hadn't aged in the last, almost twenty years!
The truth was she couldn't tell she had almost no memories of those years or what had happened to her during that time. She shook her head sending vague images and half recalled truths dancing back to the shadowy corners of her mind.
"So first we clean this mess up then I'll make us some lunch and you can tell me all about the job and just who I'm expected to kill!" she smiled "and all I need from you is a quick heads up if any troopers or mercs are snooping around"
She raised her glass in a toast "To partners! and uhm" she looked embarrassed "I am sorry I put a gun to your head, but on a plus side I think you might be the first person who I've had to apologise to...." her voice trailed off the infernal being everyone else she'd done it to was dead.

Ooc: you may get a bunch of quotes, misspellings and slightly delayed posts the coming days since I have to use my phone :/ any who...

"Well, the danger comes with the territory. No harm done." To be honest, this was quite the scary predicament he had just survived.
"Heh, well I may need you to work a sniper rifle. I'm going to be taking a cache of weapons from some two-bit gangsters out in the Wastelands. If I work my magic right, we may not even pull the trigger." He says taking another sip of the vodka.
"But yeah! To partners!" He said raising the glass again. After setting it back down he looked at her. "And, you apologized twice now." He said with a little smile. "So I feel twice as honoured." He says with a chuckle.

"Like I said I'm not used to people being around after I point guns at them" she finished her vodka clearly flustered by the way the morning had unfolded "If you straighten the tables and chairs I'll sort out the floor!" She headed behind the bar and returned with a mop and bucket that stank of bleach and disinfectant. a broom, and a bag of saw dust. Bella used the sawdust to soak up the worse of the blood and saliva before brushing it out of the delivery entrance into the side alley.... Which stank even worse that the inside of the bar, she crinckled her nose at the smell and retreated inside to begin swilling and mopping the floor. By the time she'd mopped and pushed all the powerful bleach and disinfectants out the side door even the alley smelt a little better.
She turned back to Jace who was just wiping the last chair and setting it in place under a table. She was smiling a genuine smile seeing the bar back in order and very pleased she'd not had to do it on her own "Now, how about some food?" She put the mop and bucket back behind the bar and washed her hands "How does bacon and eggs sound with some toast and a piping mug off coffee?"

After Jace was finished he clapped his hands. "Well, it's been a while since I've worked inside a Bar, but I still got it." he says cranking his arm a little mockingly. He looked over to Bella and nodded. "Sounds good to me. I can start the coffee." he says as he reaches the bar and paused. He felt that he could trust Bella as his partner, she would be an excellent asset for the delivery job that was going down this evening. "So," he started, grabbing a filter from a cupboard. "...what other skills do you have?" he says, turning to her again chuckling, "Profession wise."

Yumi stumbled into the pub not too long after the other two had just finished cleaning up, her facial expression showing one of acute depression. "Another turn down... sheesh, can't I get a break around here?" she says to herself with a loud sigh. She was wearing what looked to be a business suit, it showed off her form rather well too. "Hello? Is this place open?" she whined as she entered, hoping a beer might tide her over for a while.

Jace turned towards the woman entering the bar and spoke evenly: "I'm sorry miss, we're closed for now. You might want to try us a little bit later, crisis and all."

The timing was bad for this woman [Yumi?] to enter. Her name appearing before his mind, but he didn't think much of it. He turns to face Bella and pretends to look busy.

She frowned at Jace, thinking to herself no bar ever turns away custom and to do so might arouse suspicion "Of course we're open!" she cut across him "Now what can I get you, I was just about to start some food if your interested" She offered helpfully. Then turning to Jace she spoke in a more hushed tone
"You don't need to worry about my skills, lets just try not to act too suspicious..." Her eyes swept him up and down "I mean you really don't look like a bar manager"
