So they made it out and have recovered a bunch of information. What's next? Only time will tell, but first let's clean up our heroes.

Will try to add more on a regular basis but updates may be sporadic sometimes as inspiration strikes. I am not sure what will happen with this story, it is writing itself, I am just the conduit that tells it to everyone. Again I hope you all enjoy.

Chapter 10

Having returned to our campsite and recovering our stashed gear, we start making our way back towards Southshore. Having spent the better part of the day scouting through the library and scanning the documents contained within, it isn't long before evening approaches and we stop to rest. While Peches, Night and Honey set up camp, Cat and I scout the area and scavenge some wood for a fire. When we get back with our arms laden with firewood, we let everyone know that there is a small, spring-filled pond nearby where we all might want to clean up at. Everyone takes a turn heading to the pond and looking refreshed when they return. Cat and I are the last to clean up and we head there together.

Once we reach the shoreline, we set our bathing supplies on the ground and help each other remove the other's armor. We tease and caress each other as our gear drops to the ground. Cat's hand lingers over my naked ass as she pushes my pants down over my hips.

"Not fair," I moan.

"How is that?" she asks with a husky voice.

"You can tease me much easier now that you shredded my underwear," I reply.

"Complaining?"

"No but you still owe me a new pair," I answer her. "Leather starts to chaff after a while with nothing underneath."

This gets a small laugh from Cat. I cross my arms underneath my breasts and give her a pouting look.

"Stop looking at me like that," Cat says. "I will get you some new ones. And I promise to make it up to you."

"How?"

"Later. First let's get cleaned up."

Cat holds her hand out to me. I take her hand in mine and together we head into the pond to clean the day's grime from ourselves.

Soon our bodies are scrubbed clean and the dirt is washed from our hair. We stand in water up to our shoulders, embracing one another. Our hands slowly move along the other's body, getting reacquainted with each other. Our lips meet in a sensual kiss as the tips of our tongues dance with one another. Slowly our lips separate and we stand there getting lost in each other's eyes.

"We should be heading back to camp," Cat says.

"So soon," I say small smile.

"I know, I would rather stay here with you but they will be wondering her soon."

"Alright, give me just a few moments first."

"Okay, don't be too long."

As Cat turns and climbs out of the water, I drift backwards towards the middle of the pond. I watch the water glisten as it tumbles over the curves of Cat's body. I smile as a plan begins to form in my mind. Before I put my plan into action though, I take a few moments to relax and let my mind connect with the elements around me. I settle deeper into the water and cast a spell on myself just before I slip completely under that allows me to absorb oxygen from the water. Sinking to the bottom, I let the energies of the elements flow through me, reconnecting and strengthening my bond with the elements.

After a period of time, I ascend to the water's surface. Slowly I break the surface until I am able to see across the water to the shoreline. There I see Cat dressed only in her underwear, bent over putting that last of our bathing supplies away. A smile creeps across my face as my plan returns to me and I slip back underwater. Still having the water breathing spell on me, I am able to move closer to the water's edge without having to surface at all. I can see Cat's wavering image through the water as she stands there brushing her hair out. Getting as close as I can to the shoreline without breaking the surface, I ready to launch myself out of the water. Just as Cat turns to look out over the water, I explode from the water and tackle her to the ground.

Catching Cat by surprise, I easily pin her on the ground. Straddling her and dripping water all over her, I smile down at her before kissing hard and long. She returns the kiss and as her lips part open, my tongue darts in her mouth to caress her tongue.

Shifting slightly so as to better support myself with one arm, my free hand begins to explore Cat's body. Finding her covered breasts, I massage them and tweak the nipple through the cloth. Cat begins to moan and squirm underneath me as my lips move from her mouth and down her neck. I nibble, lick and kiss my way along her neck and across her shoulder. I slide her bra strap from her shoulder, following its path with my lips as it slides across her skin.

As the strap come off Cat's shoulder, I shift direction and move down her chest. I lightly suck on the surface of her breast as I peel the bra down, exposing her hard nipple. Slowly I circle her nipple with my tongue. Cat pushes her chest forward, trying to contact her nipple with my tongue. I pull my tongue back and look up at Cat and smiles. She returns the look and smile with nothing but lust showing on her face. Quickly I wrap my lips around her nipple and begin to suck on it. As I begin to nibble with my teeth, I hear Cat groan and feel her arching her back.

Without releasing her nipple, I move to the side so I am no longer straddling Cat. Able to better support myself on my knees alone, it leaves both of my hands free to roam her body. I finish pulling the other half of her bra down so both breasts are uncovered. I lean across her body to start sucking on the other nipple. One hand moves to replace my mouth while the other one dances across her stomach.

My fingers slide over Cat's panties as they make their way down her thigh. Reversing directions, my fingertips travel along the inside of Cat's thigh. My touch lightens as they come in contact with her cloth covered pussy and pass over top. Her legs parts open some and a quiet moan is given by Cat. Smiling against her nipple, I let my fingers move back down her other thigh to repeat the motion.

As my fingers find her covered pussy again, I hear Cat gasp. I stop sliding my fingers across her thighs and pussy and instead, concentrate on caressing her pussy. I lightly run my fingers up and down her pussy, applying pressure occasionally in random spots. As I continue to rub, Cat spreads her legs farther apart allowing me to move in a more circular motion. I can feel her pussy lips open more inside her panties. I press my fingers against her panties, pushing the cloth into her some. I move my cloth covered fingers around inside her, making Cat moan and pant. Cat's panties become soaked with her on juices and soon my fingers glisten with her fluids.

I stop sucking on Cat's nipple as I pull my fingers from her pussy. I bring my wet fingers to my mouth and suck off all of Cat's juices from them. "Mmm, you taste wonderful," I say as I move between Cat's legs. "I think I shall have some more."

Reaching under her thighs, I hook my fingers into the waistband of Cat's panties and start to pull them down. Cat lifts her ass to make it easier to slide them off. As I slide her panties down her legs, Cat brings them together, lifting them till they are straight up in the air. After slipping her panties off, I catch her legs before she can put them down. Holding them together, I push them closer to her chest till her pussy lips are pointed up at me. Cat's pussy lips have swollen from her excitement and stick out some even though they are still pressed together with her legs. Leaning down, I make Cat moan some more by licking up the length of her pressed together pussy lips.

As I continue to lick, my hands slide down her legs towards her ass. Cat's legs start to spread back open as my hands move closer to cupping her ass cheeks. My tongue is able to delve deeper and deeper till I have full access from Cat's legs opening fully before me. I lap at her pussy, licking deeper into her cunt trying to get at more of her juices.

Cat begins moaning louder and I can feel her running her fingers through my hair. Encouraged, I move to licking her hard clit. My first lick elicits a gasp from Cat and each subsequent lick gets her hips rocking. Moaning and gasping, Cat continues to hump her pussy against my face as I strum her clit with my tongue. Slipping a finger into her, I lightly scratch at her g-spot. Cat's hands move to take hold of my horns as I feel her pussy start to tighten around my finger. Taking my queue, I switch to sucking hard on the hard nubbin.

The added suction instantly pushes Cat over the edge and she grips my horns tightly, pulling my face against her pussy and grinds her cunt hard. Cat's back arches as she moans loud enough that she nearly screams out in pleasure. I keep her going for a bit longer before I start to slow my ministrations on her genitals, eventually coming to a stop. As I slide my finger from her folds and pull my mouth off of her, I look up Cat's body to see her staring down at me. I can see the lust and want in her eyes and it makes me smile.

"You know you don't have to sneak up on me like that," Cat says.

"I know," I reply with a shrug. "But it was fun."

"That is was. Now it is my turn."

Cat shifts around and curls her legs up underneath herself. While still on my knees, I straighten up to face her. At the moment, Cat switches forms to her kitty shape and pounces on me. Knocking me onto my back, Cat stands over me staring into my eyes with her feline ones. I reach up to rub the side of her face and she nuzzles my hand as she starts to purr.

Looking back at me, she says "Now to get you back for sneaking up on me."

Already being naked, Cat starts to lick down my body, beginning with my neck. She takes time to lick and nibble on each nipple before continuing down. Instinctively I spread my legs as she reaches the top of my pussy. Making herself comfortable, Cat lays between my legs and starts licking the inside of my thighs. I reach down to stroke her fur as she moves closer to my pussy.

As her tongue contacts my pussy, I give a shuddering moan. Cat uses slow, lingering licks as her tongue slips along the length of my pussy. My back arches as my hands move to my breasts. I start to pinch and roll my nipples between my fingers as Cat's tongue digs deeper into my cunt. Soon Cat has me moaning and rolling my hips as I near orgasm.

Lifting her head up, Cat looks up at me, "Not yet dear. I am going to make you wait a bit longer," she says.

I let a whimper go as Cat moves to lies alongside me. She uses her nose to nudge my hand from my nipple and begins to lap at the hard nipple. I start to stroke the fur on Cat's head as her rough tongue sends shivers down my back. Cat then pushes my other hand away and covers my breast with her paw. She begins to flex her paw, massaging my breast.

I had started to settle down some when Cat changed positions but now she is building my excitement up again. Cat's steady rhythm pushes me right to the edge but holds me there, unable to topple over into the blissness of an orgasm.

"Please, Cat," I moan, "make me cum. Mmm. Please."

Cat just continues her actions on my breasts and nipples without saying a word. Unknown to me, Cat had positioned her tail so the tip of it hovers above my open pussy lips. She brings the tip down to lightly flick it between my lips and across my clit. Gasping, I look down my body with wide eyes to see Cat's tail twitching right above my vagina. I watch as it descends to rub up and down my pussy. Moaning, my head flops back onto the ground with a thud as I start to rock my hips.

Soon, the tip of Cat's tail is dripping wet with my fluids that are flowing freely from my pussy. Cat moves the tip of her tail to the opening of my vagina and begins to wiggle it into me. With a whimper and a gasp, I spread my legs as far apart as I can. I also reach down with one hand to spread my pussy open even more. I can feel her tail sliding in and out of me with the hairs of it tickling along my g-spot. Each time her tail enters me, it leaves me gasping. When it slides out, I groan.

I can feel Cat take her paw off of my breast but soon I feel a sharp point pressed to my nipple. I look down and see Cat pressing the tip of one claw to my nipple. She isn't pressing enough to break skin or injure me but the added sensation is pushing me ever closer to release.

The final act that pushes me over is when I feel Cat's teeth grazing my other nipple. I nearly scream as my back arches and my pussy clenches around Cat's tail. My body is racked by the largest orgasm I have had in my life. As my body reacts to my orgasm, Cat continues to stimulate me, drawing out the length of my orgasm.

Finally my body can't take anymore and I lie there, gasping for breath. I feel Cat slide her tail from my pussy and she shifts positions next to me. Opening my eyes and looking up, Cat is on her side with her head propped up by her hand, looking down at me.

"Told you I would get you back," she says as she smiles at me.

I reach up and pull her into another deep kiss. Breaking the kiss, Cat stands up and holds her hands out to me, "Come on, let's get cleaned up again before the others come looking for us."

Taking a hold of her hands, she helps me stand upright. Hand in hand, we walk back into the water where we quickly clean the mud and dirt from our bodies. Exiting the water, we dry each other off and quickly don enough gear to make ourselves presentable. With arms linked, we head back to the campsite with satisfied smiles on our faces.
