You also need to make the choice from my previous post- it's in the spoiler!

Though the full moon still shone, it only provided enough light for Hecate to see a short way. There was indeed something moving across the parade ground, but it paused and looked back. It looked to be human-like; almost as if a knight had shown up to save her.

The armor, however was very slow, and if she had time to look down, she'd see long scrape marks near the door. Had it been watching her?

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Wondering what was going on, Hecate took a step carefully outside, looking at the armour. "Hello? Are you okay?" She asked cautiously, curious, was the man in the suit injured?

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

The armor drew closer, but something else would occupy Hecate very shortly. The rope demon would skitter up her leg and disappear beneath her shirt. From there, it would extend its ropes around her body, wrapping her again in the rope- forcing her chest out, holding the petals of her flower apart, but generally not getting in the way of her being able to move or fight (think

but without the collar and dildo...). The rope demon would occasionally squirm, feeling its enjoyment at being so close to its 'prize catch'.

The armor was now about halfway to her- it was big, it was metal, and it was slow. But as it got closer, it saw the little rope demon squirming around under Hecate's clothing, and... its breastplate and upper legs opened in a snarl, revealing that not only was there nobody in the armor, but it was lined with a bed of thin, fleshy membrane, with twin tentacles would slither out and wave around as it continued to walk toward her, being very careful- the armor wasn't in great condition, but it still held together.

If she didn't want to fight this foe, there were always ways around it- it didn't move that quickly, so there was always the chance she could outrun it. Of course, what she could run from could always catch her in the end...

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Hecate shivered and then let out a throaty moan, the rope skittering across her body and reminding of her of a particular jaunt in the park with a collar and a vibrator... Feeling a little aroused by having her petals spread gently, she felt her hips twitch a little against the rope, causing her to bite her lip has the armour edged nearer and then it opened to reveal a fleshy inside and a pair of tendrils. "What. The. Fuck." She said aloud, staring at the thing before running forward and jumping into the air, trying to kick the damn things head off...

Hecate's foot would impact the armor's helmet, jarring the membrane inside, but not enough to knock it down. It looked like it had still hurt the thing, though- oh, it had definitely hurt it, because it would take a swing at her, catching her in the side as it tried to force her closer to itself. She felt the rope demon squirm beneath her clothes- apparently it had taken the brunt of that blow.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

She felt her foot connect and grinned, only to receive a solid blow herself, which she felt surprisingly little of... Worried about her new friend a little, she touched the rope. "Don't do anything that would hurt yourself. I would like to keep you around..." she whispered down to the rope, hoping the demon wasn't too hurt by taking the blow.

Glaring at the armour, she dashed to the side and spun, her elbow whipping out again to strike again, angry that her new little coily buddy had been hurt by the thing.

Each of them would take their swings, and each would hit air. The armor would shift enough to avoid the elbow, but this put it in a place where Hecate could easily dodge away from his flailing tentacles. The thing would keep trying to stay close to Hecate, again flexing the plates on its front, revealing the tendril-covered membrane interior of the armor.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

The armour seemed to be surprisingly agile, a trend the slime had shared, and probably everything else in this castle as well. Turning, Hecate lifted her knee before spinning and launching herself into the air, bringing her leg around like a bullwhip, flying through the air towards the armour at a screaming speed, the rope currently forgotten as she took the fight a little more seriously...

Hecate's leg lashed out, and crashed into the armor with every bit of power she wanted it to. The armor cracked and splintered where her leg impacted it, and the sheer force of the blow knocked the armor onto it back, where it ended up losing more flakes and shards of metal as it lay on its back.

This didn't stop the armor, though. It lashed out a tentacle and managed to wrap itself around her waist, squeezing to maintain a good hold on her as the tentacle slowly started trying to drag her towards the prone armor.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

The kick went off just as it was meant to, a smashing strike that brought far more force to bear then it looked like the girl was capable of bringing to the fore, and went crashing to the ground, which was great, except one of those tendrils managed to snare around her waist, and began dragging her towards the armour's interior, that soft... warm... fleshy... The fuck was she thinking! Rushing into the pull, Hecate lashed out again, trying to keep her balance as the thing continued to keep it's hold on her.

If Hecate loses three rounds of being reeled in without escaping, well... you'll see!

Hecate landed another solid blow against the downed armor, but that didn't stop it from trying to accomplish more of its true objective- as she drew closer to it, the tentacles would begin to retreat into the armor, limiting the amount of space she had to manuver. Drips of a slimy liquid dribbled off the interior of the armor, even if it was getting bashed around plenty. It kept pulling, trying to capture the young martial artist.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Hecate landed another blow, but the armour was just as tough as it seemed to be, a literal walking hunk of metal, and without something to strike back at it effectively other then skill and power, she was at a disadvantage. With less room to move around, Hecate brought her knee into play, trying to slam the armour again, hoping to finish the thing off, but finding it was hard not to stare at the interior. Apparently there were some things about herself she had never realised, and that old, don't knock it until you tried it complex was looking to get her into trouble again.

Another blow from the young martial artist, but this time, the armor was ready for her- it would use its tentacles to push her off balance, to keep her from striking at the armor. Then it pulled at her again and reeled her closer- almost within arm's reach of the armor. It would struggle back to its feet, hoping to grab the young woman with its next move and stuff her inside.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Hecate let out a surprised yelp as the tendril yanked her off balance and spoiled her strike before dragging her closer to it's interior as it stood again. Despite any interest, Hecate was getting a little nervous. The rope had been great! She knew she liked rope, but that armour... That was new, an unknown, and an enemy. Gritting her teeth, Hecate stepped in quickly and struck out with her elbow, How tough was this thing!?

This strike was well-timed, unlike the last one- she was able to anticipate the armor's movement, and got in to plant her elbow square in the middle of the armor's membrane-lined cavity. The small tendrils caressed her arm, even as the shell reeled, leaving tracings of clear slime on her elbow and arm as she pulled it away from the warm, pulsating interior.

Startled with pain, the armor tried to pull her in, but couldn't get her within arm's reach, buying her precious, precious time.

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

"Damnit!" she shouted loudly, glad her stroke had landed, but knowing how close she was to what could be bad... Very bad... How did one get OUT of fleshy armour? She couldn't think of the answer as she lashed out again, the part of her interested outweighed by fear, a strange emotion for Hecate.

Hecate attacks the armor! (16)

The armor finally crumbles! (4)

This time, Hecate's strike did more than knock mere flakes off the metal- her strike hit a place that had been cracked before... and this time, her blow went through the rusty, broken metal, tearing a gaping hole in the membrane. The armor let out a snarl before the tentacle released her waist, the armor collapsing with a loud crash, and she could only watch as it fell apart, the membrane stilling as it lost the only thing giving it support.

The rope demon bound about her body gave her a tight squeeze, almost as if to say "... keep your tentacles off my woman, chump!"

She was now free to keep exploring. There were a few other buildings, the rusted door, the path near the windows, or even the main path and the gardens. Where to go was all up to her.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Hecate landed another blow and watched as the armour crumpled, panting raggedly and confused, but still glad that she hadn't wound up inside that armour, no matter how curious she was. As the rope gave her a squeeze, she winced a little and squinted, running her finger along a length of the rope like a thank you.

Shaking her head after looking at the armour one last time, Hecate looked down at its hands, wondering if one of the gauntlets could be used as a weapon before discarding the idea. Odds were that damn... thing inside was still technically dangerous. heading off again, Hecate started going through the other buildings. She had already found a blade and clothing, as well as a strange ally. She was nothing if not thorough.

 

[Green_Jay]

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

The other buildings contained more of the same- apparently more storage. The last building she entered, however, looked a little different. The door was hanging off its hinges and the interior was covered in scattered pieces of rusty armor that had been knocked around, and some pieces even had traces of the membrane growing through them, visible from the holes. A few pieces would twitch, but not be able to do much more than nudge their way across the floor a few inches a minute.

However, there was one good sign for her... nothing was able to attack her.

 

[Courage Wolf]

Re: Hecate (Courage Wolf)

Finding the buildings barren, Hecate shrugged and moved off, continuing now to look for a way into the castle, since that had been her original goal, and the room full of the living armour slowly growing was something probably best kept away from. Who knew how many of those suits there were. Heading away from the parade grounds, the martial artists continued her search for a way into the ruined fortress proper...
