Things were a lot more bearable on the mountain as days passed. Asuka and Lili looked to each other for strength and support as their injuries healed and soon they found themselves able to train again in no time. The main focus this time wasn't on strength... but on Lili teaching Asuka her graceful evasion skills and how to keep a calm, refined mindset in battle. That was always one of their differences: Lili had the calmness of a tea party... while Asuka was more like a shaken up soda can.
As their bodies and minds grew stronger, so did their hearts; the love between them was blooming at an exponential rate, a beautiful flower amidst the dreary climate and bleak, rocky setting. Each day they trained together, they drew closer as not just fighters... but lovers. Feng didn't seem to notice... or maybe he just didn't care.
"Okay Asuka, I'm going to teach you something new today." Lili said with a grin.
"R-right... and what would that be?" Asuka said, one eyebrow raised and arms folded.
"Well, it may seem weird at first. But I just want you to follow my lead, okay?"
"...Okay?"
"Now then..."
Suddenly Lili struck a flamboyant pose, legs spread, one hand on her hip, and another hand gracefully extended outward.
"...Shall we dance?"
Asuka didn't move a muscle; she just stood there with her arms folded and stared at her goofy partner. "...You out of your fuckin mind?"
"Asuka! Such coarse language, ahahahaha!" Lili giggled. "Very well then, watch me and then join in when you feel comfortable."
Asuka took a few cautious steps back as Lili wiggled her hips and started to gently sway forwards and backwards. One footstep preceded the other, then took a backseat and allowed the other foot to have it's time in the spotlight.
"Right foot... left foot... right foot... spiiiiiiin~"
Keeping both arms extended to balance herself, Lili took a lunge forward and did a quick, elegant twirl. Her legs effortlessly pivoted her body around in place, then quickly regained footing as she came back around. Then she rinsed and repeated, starting the process all over again.
"Right foot... left foot... right foot... spiiiiiiin~"
Again she utilized perfect balance and grace to twirl around and effortlessly retain her foot movement. She was like a lovely little tree branch, swaying against the wind but still retaining its foundation. Flexible, bendable... but still unwavering and immovable. Discipline and grace... the two elements Asuka needed to compliment her great strength.
"Cmon Asuka, do it with me!" Lili offered, still moving.
"Um... are you sure this will help me get better?" she asked, the confusion very clear in her voice.
"Of course! I'm trying to bring some culture to your barbaric brawling, Asuka-chan. This will teach you to be more refined in your movements. You know... looser, but more precise. Flowing freely with whatever powerful storm opposes you. Plus, I'm teaching you to dance~"
"Um..."
"Cmon!"
"O...kay... I'll give it a shot."
Asuka watched carefully, waiting for the opportunity to jump in and match Lili's foot movements. She waited for the right foot to come forward, then...
"Okay! Right foot! Left foot! Right foot! Spii-IIIIIIIIN!"
Asuka's crude, clunky footsteps failed to properly emulate Lili's, plus the spin was a total disaster and made her stumble around drunkenly. Lili had to stop just to laugh at her.
"Hahahaha! Ohhh Asuka, you're so cute trying to learn this~"
"Shut it! I don't wanna be cute! I wanna be an ass kicker!"
"Okay, okay. We'll do it together. Take my hand."
Lili extended a hand, giving a trusting smile to her clumsy partner. Asuka let out a little sigh and took it.
"Now, extend your other arm to balance yourself. Theeeeere you go. And now..."
Lili extended her right foot forward, then immediately looked to Asuka to do the same. She managed to get that part right, at least. After the right foot came forward, Lili drew it back and extended the left one. Asuka managed to follow suit.
"Right foot... left foot... right foot..."
Asuka gulped; oh no, here it comes!
"Spiiiiiiin~"
But clutching Lili's hand allowed the French girl to guide her easily; before she knew it, Asuka had done a full 360 and was now facing forward once again.
"W-whew!"
"Good! Now quickly, back into rhythm! Right foot forward!"
"Ah!"
Asuka managed to get her right foot forward again, albeit a half a second later than Lili. They were a teensy bit unsynchronized now, but still they managed to dance in unison.
"Right foot, left foot, right foot, SPIN!"
Lili held Asuka's hand tight and they twirled around once more. This time, Asuka managed to regain her footing at the exact same time as Lili to correct the mistake from her previous move.
"Excellent, Asuka! Right foot, left foot, right foot, spiiiiiiin. Right foot, left foot, right foot, spiiiiiiin~"
Asuka giggled as she swayed, feeling the cold blast against her from her rapid movements. But like Lili, she allowed her body to flow with the resistance. She made it a part of her... bettering her.
"I'm doing it! Ha! I'm doing it!" Asuka cheerily exclaimed.
Asuka was in the zone now, so much that she failed to realize Lili had let go of her hand like a parent lets go of their child on a bike. Even on her own, her movements were precise and without mistakes.
"Right foot, left foot, right foot, spin! Right foot, left foot, right foot, spin! WOOOO!"
It was a truly beautiful moment atop the cold, dreary mountain, as these two newfound lovers strengthened their bond with a dance of passion and mutual trust. It was a bonding experience for them, not only learning how to move easier... but learning how to move as one.
And then, as if to break the pleasant mood and pure perfection and beauty of the moment, a gruff voice echoed in the wind.
"What is this, a dance class?"
The two girls felt their rhythms break just like that. With an annoyed sigh, they turned and were met by the bushy, furrowed eyebrows of Feng Wei.
"For your information, you big oaf, I'm teaching Asuka-chan something beautiful and refined! Two things you know nothing about." Lili retorted.
"Hah! Are you martial artists, or ballet dancers?" Feng spat. "Your fancy ballroom moves won't help you when your life is on the line."
He abruptly turned around and started to walk away, but not without a final command:
"...You two come inside and cook some lunch. Then maybe I'll teach you something you can REALLY use."
And with that, no more words were shared. He immediately went inside and slammed the door, leaving the two girls to let out a simultaneous, annoyed sigh.
"...Let's go cook something." Asuka groaned.
"He wasn't serious about teaching us something, was he?"
"Who knows with that guy..."
LATER...
Once again, the culinary duo of Asuka and Lili produced a delicious meal that all three of them were able to enjoy. Though the lunch was nice... the mood was very awkward. There was something off about Feng; he seemed to have this look of pure discomfort on his face. He was always an uptight guy, but ever since he and Asuka fought, he seemed mopier than usual. Something inside Asuka wanted to ask him what was wrong... but Lili managed to distract her enough from her sympathetic thoughts towards the enemy.
"Well, that was a delicious meal! You're welcome!" Lili spat.
Feng just looked away. "Hmph."
Suddenly, Lili rose to her feet and shot a glance at Asuka. "I'm going out." As she said those words, she continued to stare at Asuka as if conveying some hidden message.
"Where are you going?" Feng asked.
"To the restroom, thank you!" she replied. She gave Asuka a little nudge, and then the brunette caught on.
"Oh! And I'm going with her."
"Why?"
"To make sure you don't watch, you fuckin pervert!"
"Hmph, disrespectful little... very well. Hurry back."
With a scoff, the two girls quickly left the house and slammed the door.
Asuka and Lili went around back, to a secluded little area. Looking around a few times to make sure the coast was clear, they turned and faced each other with a look of lust and passion. Suddenly, Lili tackled Asuka to the ground and her tongue invaded the brunette's mouth.
"Mmmph! Mmmph... mmph... ahh...mm-ahhh.."
Their tongues clashed as their lips slurped and smacked together. After a minute of making out, Lili broke the kiss and looked into Asuka's eyes.
"I've been waiting for this all day..."
"Me too... I couldn't stand another moment with that asshole." Asuka giggled.
"Then let's get him off our minds... and get these clothes off our bodies~"
Lili crawled off of Asuka so she could get her hands underneath the dress and lift it up. She yanked if over her head and tossed it aside, admiring the jiggling of her boobies from the frantic movements. She witnessed Asuka's nipples stiffen before her eyes, immediately affected by the strong draft.
Lili shed her own dress and the two naked lovers collided. They rolled around in the dirt, tongues flailing and lips battling, while their hands looked to grope and massage whatever flesh they came in contact with. Asuka's hand found her way to Lili's petite little booty and grabbed a big handful of it, eliciting a sharp moan from the French girl as she focused her hands on Asuka's bounty of breast fat.
"Unnh, ahh! Fuck me Lili, fuck me!" Asuka cried out.
Lili wasted no time thrusting her pussy against Asuka's as they commenced to tribbing in each other's arms. Their legs flailed wildly as they wriggled on the ground, crying out as their clits made contact and grinded together.
"Ahhhh! Ahhh! Ahhhhhh! Ohhhhhh!"
Asuka kept her legs spread for easier access as her lips continued to work hard in unison with Lili's. The French girl had her eyes shut in the mires of passion, but Asuka kept hers open: she was mesmerized by the back and forth movements of Lili's ass from her humping motion. She brought her hands down and grabbed both cheeks, squeezing them tight and pushing them forward to make the meat bulge in her hands. Lili seemed to like this, as her breathy moans started having noise to them.
"Huuhh...huuuh...huuuhhh...huuuh! Haaaah! Haaaaaahhhhh! Ahhhhhhhh!"
Lili was basically going at jackhammer speed now, grinding so hard and fast against Asuka's pussy that they were probably going to have burns. Thankfully, the massive wetness oozing from their folds provided a smoother experience.
"Ohhh fucking god Lili! AHHHHHHHHH!"
Asuka's body shook wildly as the squirts pretty much flew out like a sputtering water hose, peppering Lili's pelvis with warmth and stickiness. It carried on for a good few seconds: an indication that it was a powerful one and Lili did her job well.
"UHHHN! UUUUN! AHHH ASUKAAA!"
Lili cried out as her own pussy contracted, sending the sensation of being hit with a tidal wave crashing through her as her walls expelled three short, hard squirts that blasted against Asuka with enough force to make a little splash. The remainder of what came out of her was a little trickle as her pussy continued it's orgasmic heartbeat until it slowed to a halt.
Lili collapsed against Asuka, the two lovers panting from the exhaustion of that spontaneous, explosive sexual experience. Yes, this was just one of the ways that having Lili here was helping Asuka cope with the whole situation. As it turns out, Lili was more than just good company... she felt pretty good to fuck.
"Huff... huff... holy shit, I needed that..." Asuka panted.
"So did I~" Lili giggled. "In fact, I may need it again in about ten mi-"
"Are you two done yet?"
A third, unwelcome voice elicited a squeal from the two girls as they attempted to shamefully cover themselves up... but after a few seconds, it seemed kind of silly since Feng knew them breast to toe anyway.
"How long have you been there!" Asuka squealed.
"Since the eerie moans started. I thought maybe it was the ghost of some warrior I slayed seeking to haunt me." Feng grinned.
"SHUT IT!:
Feng rolled his eyes and turned around. "Just put your clothes on and follow me."
Well, the secret was out now. But now that Feng knew his two captives were having sex, Asuka and Lili felt a bit of a burden being lifted. It was never comfortable trying to keep secrets, especially from someone they're forced to live with. They actually felt a little silly now for keeping it a secret, since Feng was so quick to dismiss it. Of course, there was always that growing fear that Feng would exploit this newfound knowledge... no... he wouldn't make them do something dirty in front of him, would he?
As Lili and Asuka got dressed and back to the front of the house, they quickly realized that Feng was serious about wanting to teach them something new. This was apparent by the three wooden training dummies set up in the middle of the open area. Feng was already in front of one, and the girls assumed the other two had their names on it. With reluctant legs, they made their way to the vacant dummies and stood in front of them.
"Now then... if you two are done with your dance recital, allow me to teach you a real move. Check this out."
Feng widened his stance, taking a deep breath as he closed his eyes and loosened his muscles. Asuka and Lili stood still, curiously observing what he was about to do.
And then, his eyes open.
"SEEEIYAHHHH!"
With a threatening cry, Feng drew his palm back, fingers cupped in a C shape, and let the rigid bone of his hand shoot forward like a rubber band. His hand crashed against the neck of the wooden dummy, giving the appearance of him trying to seize the throat. However, he did not grasp; he instead drew his hand back to the side of his ear fluidly. Like a samurai sheathing his sword, that was Feng's way of retracting his deadly weapon.
"Oh my god..."
"Sacre bleu..."
When the girls looked at the dummy, the neck was completely crushed inwards. Unable to even support the head, the top part slowly slumped forward until it fell off.
"There. I call it the Shaolin Throat Crush."
"Shaolin... Throat... Crush. Wow. Sounds like you've been watching too many movies." Asuka scoffed.
"Silence!" Feng barked. "This is a deadly move I'm teaching you. If utilized properly, you can cave in your opponent's throat and cut off the oxygen to their brain until they sleep forever."
"Oh my gosh, that is disgusting!" Lili said, extending her tongue to emphasize her disgust.
"I want you two to try it now." Feng calmly stated. "Just curl your hand in a grasping motion, draw back like a hunter readying his bow... and let your hand fly true like a soaring arrow!"
"Um... why are you teaching me this?" Asuka asked, finally succumbing to her curiosity.
"You want to kill me, don't you? Well, I'm giving you the means."
"Wha... b-but..."
" BUT WHAT! You seemed to determined to end my life when we last fought!" Feng spat. "Or were those just the desperate ramblings of an insecure little child!"
"SHUT UP! DON'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!" Asuka screamed.
"YOU WANT TO KILL ME? THEN KILL ME! DO IT! END MY LIFE LIKE YOU JAPANESE SCUM ENDED THE LIVES OF MY ANCESTORS!"
With an angry yell, Asuka thrust her palm forward against the dummy's neck, drawing it back to her ear just as Feng did. The pain immediately flooded to the bone, responding to the unfamiliar impact... but Asuka didn't care. To her surprise... and horror... she had done it on her first try. The dummy's head slumped forwards, unable to be stood up manually as the foundation that held it upwards was now useless. When she saw what she was capable of... the tears flowed. She was afraid... afraid of herself.
"Enough of this!" Lili intervened, getting between Asuka and Feng. With a few tears of her own, she held Asuka against her and allowed the brunette to bury her face in her chest, as to not let Feng see her cry.
Lili shot a mean glance at him. "Asuka is no longer training with you, Monsieur Feng! She's MY training partner now, and I'm going to teach her how to get better without making her a ruthless barbarian like yourself!"
Feng rolled his eyes and threw his arms up. "Fine! Just have her ready to face me in combat again. You've got three days... and if you fail again, I will NOT be merciful."
Thankfully, that was a resolution to the tense situation as Feng angrily stormed back into the house. Lili was finally able to tend to Asuka, picking the crying girl's head up and looking into her wet eyes.
"Asuka..."
"I don't wanna be like him!" Asuka sobbed. "I don't wanna... don't wanna..."
"You're not. You'll never be." Lili soothed, caressing her hair. "You're better than Feng will ever be, okay? You'll never be a murderer like him..."
Lili leaned in and softly kissed Asuka on the lips, placing a gentle hand on her cheek to steady her face. Asuka sighed softly as her eyes closed and she melted into the affectionate lip-lock. After a few seconds, they pulled apart with a soft little smooching sound.
"...I love you, Lili." Asuka whispered. "I love you... thank you for being here with me... supporting me... y-you're my rock..."
Lili responded with another quicker kiss. "I would do anything for you, Asuka. We're going to get through this, and I'm going to help you. I'll make sure you never become like Feng."
"Th-thank you..."
After a few lingering sniffles, the tears dried up and Asuka was back to her usual self. Though that wasn't much of an improvement, it still felt good to be in Lili's presence. It made her actually want to smile once in a while, and maybe find the good in this situation.
That night, a very pleasant surprise came... Feng didn't seem interested in doing stuff with either of them. Lili was especially surprised he didn't want her; they had only fucked a couple of times since she was there, and she figured he was just getting warmed up. Regardless, this was a sign of great things to come if Feng was finally tired of them. Maybe he'd gotten tired of this whole ordeal altogether. Or maybe... he was just focusing on getting physically and mentally ready for what would be his final battle with Asuka.
To the misfortune of the two hopeful girls... it was the latter.
TO BE CONCLUDED
