Chapter 4
The wall in front of me lit up and it was me, for all practical purposes with no hair. I screamed into the air mask and struggled in my bonds. For some reason it seemed like shaving me bare would be the worst thing they could possibly do. Obviously I knew that was just the beginning.
The dark haired man turned around and watched me struggling. His face was rough with stubble and his short black hair framed his face. He raised a dark eyebrow and said something. Long hair jumped up on my platform behind me. I felt him grab my long brown hair and wrap it around his fist. He twisted my head to and fro talking to his friends.
He jumped down and leaned casually on my platform smirking up at me.
The tentacle lady hit a switch and the me on the wall was now just Like I was, hair and all. A sigh of relief escaped my mouth. Suddenly, I realized it had come out. The air mask on my face was gone.
The men spoke to the lady in a Language I couldn’t understand. Dark hair continued to watch me intermittently. I wasn’t really upset when the me on the wall had her leg, groin, stomach, and underarm hair removed.
A lanky quiet man pointed to his breast plate and addressed the group.
The metal covering his chest had an intricate design on it. In fact, they all wore the same design on their chest. The lady stuck her tentacle into his ear.
I was distracted from the rest of the conversation as the long haired man played with my toes. Across the platform from him a man with brown hair and a short beard stroked the other foot as they talked. They were touching me without permission and it infuriated me. The logical little voice in the back of my mind reasoned I should get used to it.
Two creatures came in to the room from the side door. They looked Like they were made of jelly. Again, the urge to throw up came over me and I fought it back down.
The platform I was on Lowered to the ground and I was now surrounded by my captors at their level. The men were enormous, the shortest was probably six foot something. At 5’7 they dwarfed me substantially.
The jelly creatures were on the platform now and I started to struggle.

Of course I already knew it was worthless, but I couldn’t stop. When the jelly creatures started to engulf my Legs, my panicked screaming filled the room. Quite suddenly the air mask over my mouth was replaced and the tentacle Lady was sticking her thing in my ear.
“Silence, slave,” I heard in my mind. “You are now the property of the proud Warriors that stand around us. They wish your hair removed in certain places and it is being done. They have paid to have an understanding of their Language placed in your mind. I will do this now.”
My world got foggy as tentacle woman dumped an alien language into my brain. I was vaguely aware that the table moved up as I moved down until I was Laying flat at the level of the Lady’s tentacle. It felt like I had had too much to drink. Slowly the words being spoken around me started to make sense. There wasn’t time to marvel at it, though.
The tentacle woman pulled out what looked like a silver pen Light and pressed it to my arm. I winced as a slight burn started where she held the silver pen against me.
“What was that?” the Lanky guy asked quietly.
“It is for the slave’s health,” the dark haired man answered him.
“Basin told us of this, brother, you must pay more attention.”
“We will give it a drink every day that is similar to that concoction,” the bearded man said and the others agreed.
It was so weird understanding a Language I knew was foreign to me. I was stunned.
“Human slave, I am speaking to you in the language of Pateria. Do you understand me?” the woman asked Looking right at me.
I nodded slowly and she slapped my breast, “You will answer me when I speak to you, slave!”
Before I had a chance to do what I was told, I saw Dark hair grabbing her hand.
