Qi'ra lay in her own brig, gagged, chained, and completely naked. She still could hardly believe what had happened. Not only had Asmodeus had outwitted, captured and humiliated her personally, but he had effectively destroyed Crimson Dawn. With her captured, their fleet annihilated and most of their bases throughout the galaxy destroyed, there was only a very slim chance of Crimson Dawn ever rising again. They had thought the Empire had dealt them their most disastrous defeat ever, but they had been wrong. Asmodeus was their true bane… their true destroyer.
"Mmmph?!" Qi'ra mumbled through her gag as the ship jerked and began to move. Where are we going? She wondered. Then, she remembered what Asmodeus had said about his plan to use her form to lure the leaders of the other crime syndicates into a trap. We must be heading to wherever he's told them to meet up, she realized.
For a long time, Qi'ra remained in the brig. For how long, she did not know, but she estimated it must have been almost a day. During that time, she felt the ship land and stay for a long while. Then, after a while, she heard the faint sound of other ships landing.
The other crime bosses are here, she realized.
Qi'ra could not believe this, but she was actually rooting for the other crime bosses to kill Asmodeus. She hated those vile, greedy crime bosses, but right now she wanted that meddling, perverted shapeshifter dead more than anyone.
Not long afterwards, Qi'ra's sharp ears heard many noises in the distance. Ear-splitting predatory shrieks, screams of terror and pain. Then, everything went quiet. But then, a few minutes later, she heard the sound of the engines of a single ship roaring to life and then leaving.
What's going on? Qi'ra wondered.
Then, a few minutes later, the door to the brig slid open and in came Asmodeus and a towering Hork-Bajir. Asmodeus was smiling with pleasure and he was carrying a bag with something white and furry inside.
Qi'ra's hopes fell. This could only mean that Asmodeus's plan had worked. He had gotten rid of the other crime bosses. She glared at Asmodeus, her green eyes narrowed in hatred. "YHHH FRHHHH!" Qi'ra screamed through her gag. "LLHHH MMHHH GHHH! MMMMMMPH!" She writhed and squirmed on the floor, trying to get free or at least stand up to face her captor, but she was powerless to do anything.
Asmodeus walked towards Qi'ra and leaned down to look her in the eye. "My plan worked like a charm, my pretty. Your pretty face and smooth voice really sold on your fellow criminals."
"Grrrmph," Qi'ra growled.
Asmodeus grabbed Qi'ra by the chin. "I could say you won't be harmed Qi'Ra, but that wouldn't be quite true. However, you'll have to stay here, for now at least."
"Hhhffmph! Bfffhmph! Mmmmph!" Qi'ra mumbled.
Asmodeus stroked the naked crime lady's hair and his eyes rested on her naked breasts. "Out of all those wretched lowlifes, you are the nicest to look at Qi'ra," he said softly.
"Hhuumph?" Qi'ra mumbled, blushing red with shame. Somehow Asmodeus's lustful gaze scared her even more than anything else she knew about him.
Asmodeus let go of Qi'ra and backed off. "See you later, Qi'ra," he said with a mocking smile and a wave. "Come, Dagger," he said to the Hork-Bajir. "We have other matters to tend to."
As Asmodeus and the Hork-Bajir left the brig, Qi'ra shouted muffled curses and protests at them. "YHHH PHHH FRHHH THHH YHHH FRRRHHS! GGGRRRMMPH! BBBFFFFMMPH! MMMMMMMMMPH!"
But her captors ignored her and the door slid shut.
Finally, Qi'ra fell silent and she lay there, miserable and helpless.
For several hours afterwards, Qi'ra remained in the brig. During that time, felt the ship take off again and then the vibrations of faster than light travel. She could only guess where they were heading now, but she suspected they were returning to Asmodeus's giant flagship. Remembering how unthinkably enormous that alien ship was, Qi'ra wondered how Asmodeus and his Hork-Bajir had built such a thing… or had they stolen it from someone else? Did they have more ships like that? She didn't know, and that frightened her.
"Mmmmm," Qi'ra moaned. She was cold and uncomfortable, being naked and chained up on the floor. The cold metal of the floor was pressing hard against her bare bottom, her arms were sore from being cuffed behind her back for so long, and her nipples were stiff and achy from being exposed to the cold air. She fidgeted in her bondage, trying to ease her body into a more comfortable position.
Qi'ra's thoughts wandered back to how Crimson Dawn had been so easily taken down by Asmodeus and the Hork-Bajir. Or had it? She now remembered that while Asmodeus had destroyed her fleet and most of her bases, there was one particular base that he had missed: one that was top secret. The one on Geonosis: her droid factory, where her own personal army of B2 super battle droids was being built.
Qi'ra's heart soared in her breast. There was still hope for her! The people who were running the droid factory were loyal to her! Or at least she thought they were. If she played along with Asmodeus, she could send a distress message to the factory and tell her followers to rescue her. Or better still, maybe she could escape Asmodeus and head back to the droid factory. And then everything would go back to normal! She would make Asmodeus pay!
Suddenly, the ship stopped moving.
"Mmmmm?" Qi'ra mumbled through her gag. Had they finally arrived at their destination?
A few minutes later, the brig's door slid open once again and Asmodeus came in alone, a Hork-Bajir gun secured at his side. He smiled at Qi'ra. "Hello, my pretty, it's time for you to come with me, to your new cage."
"Mmmmph?" Qi'ra mumbled through her gag.
Asmodeus disconnected the chain keeping Qi'ra tied to the floor and grabbed her arm, pulling her to her feet.
"Grrrmph," Qi'ra grumbled through her gag. She shivered in fear and shame as Asmodeus ogled her naked body.
Asmodeus walked behind Qi'ra. There was something most delightful that he was about to do… something both cruel and pragmatic. Something that would give him pleasure, ensure the chances of Qi'ra escaping him were very low, and that he would get what he needed from her. He picked up the gun at his side. "Have a good sleep, my pretty," he said smoothly.
"Mmmmph?" Qi'ra mumbled through her gag.
Before Qi'ra could try to move or say anything else, Asmodeus, grinning hugely, raised the gun high over his head. He swung it round in a mighty arc and brought it down hard on the back of Qi'ra's head.
WHACK!
"Hhhmph!" Qi'ra grunted painfully through her tight gag as she felt the butt of the gun strike her head, which briefly bended under the hit. She felt stiff, and then dizzy, as she stared up, her green eyes wide with shock.
Satisfied that his blow had had the desired effect, Asmodeus released his grip on the naked crime lady.
"Mmmmph…" Qi'ra muttered through her gag, swaying on her now wobbly slim legs. Everything around her went foggy as the hard hit to her head took its toll. The bound and gagged woman's eyes rolled in her head and slowly she fell to the floor, blacking out before she even hit it.
Asmodeus kneeled down, taking a really close and very good look at the beautiful and sexy form of Qi'ra, in all her bound, gagged, powerless, womanly glory. Her lithe, slender figure, her smooth, soft, light skin, her long, slim limbs, her petite hands, her nicely portioned angular face, and of course her round, perky breasts and ass. She had the perfect woman's body.
Asmodeus's blood boiling with primal lust and desire, but he restrained himself from violating Qi'ra. Instead, he picked up the bound, gagged and naked woman bridle style, and began to take her to his lair.
