This choice: She's in "all business" mode. | Go Back Chapter 17: The plot thickens. (ID #829309) an addition by: Trivu ![View trivu's Portfolio. [Offline / Private]](http://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/costumicons/ps-icon-regular-2.gif) More by this author You are ushered into a large room befitting of the head of the schools most prestigious house. Everything is decorated in dark colors, silk and velvet, and it all looks classy and expensive. You wonder if all of this came with her position, or if she has a background of money. It certainly seemed to suit her. You take particular notice of a cushy looking king size bed against the far wall, and wonder what sorts of activities might take place inside a vore house.
Alexandra shut the door and pulled up a chair for herself. You were apparently fine standing where you were, as far as she was concerned.
"All, right frosh, this is the situation in which we find ourselves." She paused for a moment. "Mizomi and I screwed up, and you're going to play along with it. You ate Mizomi, and rightly earned your place as head. More importantly, you are a supremely competent vore to have even been considered for such an offer in the first place."
Sensing trouble, you try and fess up a little. "Uhm...I'm actually really not THAT great..."
"Oh, you misunderstand. I don't care how good you actually are. From now on, you're the best. And honestly, with Failiel, and Mizomi eaten, that's difficult to argue with"
You knew better, Failiel was pretty much an accident, and you may have gotten lucky with Mizomi due to the strange position. However, you felt it was a bad idea to say these things.
"Listen, I'm going to come under enough heat as it is for nominating a man. Half the teachers here are former members, and they will NOT be happy. Although, I suspect what they might do to me isn't nearly as bad as what they might do to you..."
Your heart skips a beat at the prospect. It's easy to forget sometimes, but this is after all, a school for teaching people not to murder each other by way of improving their murdering skills. There are a lot of very dangerous people around. Actually you're talking to one of them now, though she doesn't seem particularly threatening at the moment. Mostly she just seems responsible for getting you involved in a big mess.
"Well, Alexandra, that all sounds great, but if you don't mind me asking, if this was such a dumb move, why the HELL did you bring me in in the first place?!"
At that, she glances to the side, no, towards the door, cautiously, before speaking in a quieter tone. "You were supposed to eat Jessica." she gives you a nasty look again. "Mizomi was going to tell you about it, and get you on our side, but it seems that didn't happen." There was another brief moment of silence. "I mean God, what did you do, eat her the moment she looked away? Mizomi would ALWAYS start that sort of encounter by offering sex. That didn't interest you?"
Ouch. She had aimed a shot at your pride as a man, and it stung a little. You quickly piece together something of a retort. "Hey, it was serious stuff, after all. I mean, weren't we supposed to be eliminating each other? She could have been planning anything. Besides, a girl that looks that good, who wouldn't want to just.....take her?" You struggle for the appropriate words at the end, and have probably said too much, considering the two of them seemed to be friends.
Alexandra only stared at you a bit with a complicated expression. "So.....you're saying you're the type that's more concerned with putting girls in your stomach than the conventional pleasures?"
You aren't really sure you wanted to say that, but she only comments, "Hm...I guess that's fine..." Just what is that look she's giving you? After a few seconds you try and get back on the topic.
"So. Jessica." You wonder what sorts of conflicts had been going on. You'll admit that she struck you as quite the bitch yesterday, but you aren't sure that's enough reason to organize her death. But more importantly, "If you wanted her gone, why couldn't you just get rid of her yourselves? Aren't you the most powerful students on campus? Who seem to have their own secret ways of bypassing all the safety mechanisms on digestion no less? You couldn't handle it?"
She straightened up. "It's precisely because we're powerful that we got put in that situation. Every vore who's anyone has come through here. And anyone powerful enough, who wants to make sure that their kid gets in can do so." You recall the word "Princess" printed on Jessica's T shirt yesterday. Was she really?
"Jessica is the daughter of the principal. In other words, her mother is the most powerful vore that the government is aware of. We can rest assured that if anything bad happens to her, the one who's responsible, is not going to live very long." Your eyes narrowed into slits, and she couldn't help smiling a little. "So, if we wanted to get rid of the insufferable whore, we needed to find someone who was skilled enough to overcome the considerable abilities she's inherited from her mother, but new enough to not know who Jessica was. And then in walks a new pledge with Failiel, the best mage in the student body, who's never been swallowed in her life, and who's been ABA's top target for years, helpless and squirming. If only you were a girl it would have been too good to be true. You eat Jessica, the Principal eats you, and the house gets to elect a third head"
You are obviously annoyed at this point. For all the appropriate reasons. "You sounds pretty pleased with yourself considering the plan didn't work"
Her smugness disappeared. "Whatever the case may be, we're in much the same situation right now, aren't we?" She stood up, elegantly as usual and stepped across the room. "So we work together. We get people to accept your status, and if we're lucky, maybe another overpowered newbie will show up one day."
You sigh. She comes up behind you. "And who knows? Maybe this won't be all that bad?" She's giving you a complicated expression again.
