Chapter Seven:
The Veemo Waifu's Tale
"Batter up!"
With confident energy coursing through her, the Octoling threw Sephiroth towards the others. Axol was the first to intercept, he kicked the incoming replica, sending him over to Mario and SMG4. The two fat Italians went all-out, kicking Sephiroth around as if he was nothing more than a kickball, then SMG4 kicked him high.
Saiko's turn was next, she swung her hammer, right as Boopkins swallowed up a rock, and sent Sephiroth flying into the air. Luigi grabbed the green Spike, and Boopkins opened fire. The eaten rock-turned spike ball struck Sephiroth, sending him crashing into the wall before he faded out.
Francis watched from a slight distance, clutching the Inkweaver in his hand. He wasn't finished, not by a long shot.
"Yeah!" SMG4 whooped.
"Wahoo!" Mario hollered.
"We got this!" Axol exclaimed.
As the gang rejoiced in the moment, Francis used the distraction to begin drawing on the paper with Inkweaver.
"Pfft! That was too easy..." Desti remarked.
Shk!
Every pulse in her skyrocketed, and her eyes widened with surprised pain. Desti looked down, seeing the blade protruding from her side torso, with pink-colored ink dripping down her sweater. The room was filled with horrified silence. Saiko, Tari, Axol, Boopkins, SMG4, and the Mario Brothers were all left in shock.
"NO! DESTI!" Meggy yelled, banging the wall of the Ink Zuccer.
Francis started laughing madly, laughing with full glee, and Desti felt a strong sense of dizziness. "DID YOU BAKAS FORGET WHO HAS THE PEN?!" The chameleon called.
'Perhaps this is the end.' Desti thought, right as Sephiroth withdrew the blade.
She dropped to her knees, her mouth dripping with ink, and her eyesight was a blur. Desti looked at Meggy, her Inkling rival, and smiled weakly. The Octoling closed her eyes, helping herself concentrate, and, with the only ounce of conscious breath she had left, Desti said, "You better win the Splatfest for me, okay?"
And then, she was out like a light. In that moment, Desti thought she was going to die, and wake up in the afterlife. Heaven, Hell, it didn't matter where she was...
However, the breath of life swept back into her lungs pretty soon. She felt her heartbeat, and, even before she opened her eyes, Desti recalled when she'd been stabbed with that sword, and when she saw the blade coming through her.
Francis had sent out another Sephiroth, and the latter had missed her vital organs.
Desti groaned, and slowly opened her eyes. She felt herself floating, unable to move, and her head pounded intensely. She felt a stinging sensation in her side, obviously the blade wound, and it took all the strength she had to fully open her eyes. In that moment, the Octoling was in a state of shock...
She was inside an Ink Zuccer, in a different room, and she could see Francis, accompanied by a couple Goombas and Koopas. Desti looked around, baffled by what was happening, and she took a second before locking eyes with Francis, who gripped the Inkweaver and grinned madly.
"Look who's still alive..." The chameleon purred.
"FRANCIS!" Desti screamed, "What's going on here, and what happened to the others? Where's Meggy? Where's Mario? AND WHAT DID YOU DO?"
Francis shrieked with laughter, "Asking already? I'll tell you what's happening, Octoling. Mario and the others... are gone. I drove them off the island with my Sephiroths and a super-charged Super Ultra Instinct Goku, some of 'em may have been badly hurt, AND VICTORY IS MINE! ANIME ISLAND IS COMING TO LIFE... and you're going to be part of it!"
'No...' Desti was horrified. Francis had beaten the others while she was out. That meant... Oh no, he was draining all of the ink out of the Inklings, and Meggy...
"WHERE'S MEGGY?! WHERE IS SHE?!" Desti yelled.
"Heh-heh-heh..." Francis gloated, "Oh, I actually got every last bit of ink from her, and she's not even an Inkling anymore. In fact, Meggy Spletzer will be one of my waifus. Oh, but I'm not stopping with just the island. As we speak, my anime armies created by Inkweaver are conquering the Mushroom Kingdom and laying siege to Inkopolis! WORLD DOMINATION, BABY!"
"You sick bastard!" Desti was starting to choke up with tears.
"And as for you..." Francis shrieked with glee, "I'M GOING TO BE DRAINING EVERY LAST OUNCE OF INK FROM YOUR BODY, AND YOU'RE GOING TO BECOME A WAIFU, JUST LIKE A GOOD MANY OF THE INKLINGS HAVE! And we start right now..."
Before she could even protest, Francis flipped a lever, and the Zuccer activated. Desti looked around with terror, unable to process everything, and she screamed as a strong surge of energy tore into her body. The injured Octoling screamed as ounces of her own ink was ripped from her, and Francis laughed gleefully.
The pain was more intense compared to the stabbing she'd taken, it felt like she was being stabbed from every direction. Desti wailed helplessly, unable to break free, and she felt like her body was falling apart. How much ink did she have left, it was happening to fast.
Once again, darkness overtook her, and the world around Desti Octavio went black.
Moments passed, and her senses returned again. When Desti came to, she wasn't in the Zuccer. She was laying on the floor, feeling a sense of coldness. The self-proclaimed unstoppable leader of the Octoposse opened her eyes and slowly sat up, then she noticed something different.
Her hand.
It was a little bigger, and it didn't look like the hand of an Octoling. Desti rubbed her side, over the spot where she'd been stabbed, then she felt something else. She touched her face, and reached up to touch her... hair?
"What the hell happened to me?!" Desti exclaimed with wide eyes, "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ME?!"
She looked around frantically, and the Turf War player noticed she was outside the Ink Zuccer, surrounded by Anime Cartel goons... and a few anime girls, one of whom looked a lot like Saiko. Wait a second, it WAS Saiko. She wasn't hurt?
"Saiko? What happened?!" Desti demanded, "Where's Francis? AND WHAT'S HAPPENING?!"
"Please call me Queen Saiko... or 'your highness'." Saiko told Desti, "Francis promised to spare the others at the end of the battle if I became his anime queen. I didn't have much of a choice, but... poor Tari. Boopkins. Anyways, you noticed your own body looks different, and you're probably going to be in shock for a while. GUARDS! MIRROR!"
A Koopa handed Saiko the mirror, and she handed it to Desti. She took a long look at the black-skinned human girl with purple hair and gold eyes staring at her from the other side. In that second, the realization finally sunk in;
Desti was a human! No, not just a human. An anime girl.
"Oh, cod! OH, COD! NO!" She screamed, shooting to her feet, "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU'VE DONE AND WHAT YOU'RE DOING HERE?! WAIT UNTIL MY FATHER, DJ OCTAVIO, FINDS OUT?! YOU BASTARDS!"
To make things more humiliating for her, Desti noticed quickly that she wasn't wearing her trademark hoodie/sweater, boots, and shorts anymore. In place of her old clothes, the Octo-turned human wore a deep pink leotard that accentuated her curved, pronounced human body. A Koopa smacked her on the butt with a dirty and flirtatious grin, causing Desti to gasp.
Moments later, a door opened, and Francis approached the former Octoling as Saiko and the other guards stepped aside. The chameleon smirked deviously, and licked his lips, then he grabbed her shoulder and forced Desti onto her feet.
"We're going to have lots of fun today, Veemo Waifu..." Francis hissed, and he pulled the former Octoposse leader into a kiss, claiming Desti as one of his "waifus" against her will.
Present Day
Chained to the bench, and full of dread, alone in the dimly lit room.
The leotard-clad former Octoling sat alone, listening to the sound of guards laughing outside the door, and Desti looked up at the ceiling. She recalled every detail of that fateful day again, then she would think back to the day when her rivalry with Meggy got started, recalling their brief battle in the Deep Sea Metro. Those were the days, but Desti knew they could have been more than rivals.
Almost every week, she had to deal with Francis' advances, and it was hard to be dignified whenever he forced her to perform pole dances on Saturday nights. And after that, well, he'd make his advance on Desti.
In her solitude, she wished she could visit Meggy, let her know she was alive. And yet, Francis wanted to keep the beanie girl in the dark about her old rival's survival just as he was keeping Desti's father in the dark about what was really happening to her. It had been a few years since the two rivals saw one another, even as they were still in the same damn place.
Seconds later, the door opened, and Desti looked face front as Saiko walked into the room, wearing a high-school uniform with a skirt, one of her kinky roleplay outfits she wore around Francis. The pink-haired anime girl approached the former Octoling, carrying a tray full of white bread.
"Eat up." Saiko told her, "And eat quickly. He's coming for... another session with you."
'Great.' Desti thought, 'A pre-Francis meal. And after I eat, that damn chameleon shows up, and cue the kinky crap.'
She grabbed a loaf of bread and began scarfing it down. The bread was soft, and very warm, which made the veemo girl feel at ease for a time. She munched on every last ounce, eating away the bread on the tray, and proceeded to drink a glass of water that Saiko brought along. The anime queen wiped a couple crumbs off Desti's face, and pat her on the shoulder.
"Take care..." Saiko said to the former Octoling, "Sorry I can't do more for your situation..."
And without another word, Queen Saiko departed the room, leaving the leotard-clad anime island slave to digest her meal. She felt sick to the pit of her stomach thinking about Francis' latest visit so much, but Desti fought off the nausea. Moments later, she heard a vile laugh, and the chameleon himself entered the room before the guards closed the door.
"How've you been, Francis?" Desti asked in a loathing tone.
"Never better!" Francis crooned, he was wearing a latex costume and holding a whip, "It's time for some fun, and I love seeing you in chains in that filthy little leotard of yours..." He cracked the whip, "GET UP, SLAVE!"
Desti grimaced in pain as the whip struck her hair, and she stood up, trying to look somewhat dignified. In that moment, Francis advanced closer, and stroked Desti's face and shoulder. A chill rolled up the former Octoling's back, and she clenched her fist uneasily.
Francis leaned closer, and licked Desti's cheek in a lustful, seductive manner while letting out a creepy purring noise. Then he locked eyes with her, and whispered, "Turn around, Octavio..."
With a hint of reluctance, she obeyed, and turned around. Francis eyed her slender back, and dipped in again, licking his slave's neck aggressively with that long tongue of his. Desti shivered, and Francis took advantage of this to smack her across her firm butt. The former Octoling shrieked in protest, prompting Francis to laugh, and he slapped her rump once more.
With lightning speed, Francis threw his arms around Desti, and began groping her chest as he licked her neck once more. That was when he turned her around, and Desti gasped before her captor kissed the former Octoling upon the lips, forcing her into a make-out session with him.
"Stop..." Desti whimpered, a small tear rolling down her face.
"We're just starting..." Francis hissed.
"Not this, please..."
He forced her onto the bench, and forced Desti into another kiss before the insane chameleon took everything to the next level...
