Ko-chan’s Chronicles

"I think it's gonna be great. Once we get inside let's show the others what we got." Hinari's voice could be heard throughout the foyer.

"Wait, who's there? Is someone in here already?" Sakari raised her voice.

"Someone on table. Let's go." Naruyo picked up her pace when she saw me on the table.

"Wait, is that Ko-chan? What happened to her? Was there a break-in?" Hinari dropped her bags and ran over to me. "This is awful! Who left her like this?"

"Less talking. More untying." Naruyo snapped at her, and immediately started working on one of the knots.

With three pairs of hands, it wasn't long until my hogtie was released and I slumped down to the table. My head was untied as well, and I could finally put my head down, but not for long because someone started to pick at the tape on my head and unwind it. As soon as my eyes were uncovered, the tears came flowing, and I whined as loud as I could.

Naruyo picked me up and put me in her lap, hugging me and rocking me back and forth until I calmed down a bit. A few minutes later she put me back on the couch and started picking at the knots on my back again.

"Come on, help." Naruyo prodded the other two girls again and they started to work on my legs. I whined and shook my head, trying to get them to release my gag, but they didn't seem to understand and just comforted me and kept picking at the knots.

Twenty long minutes later, Naruyo pulled the final knot on my wrists free and I reached up to my gag. Of course, with my hands wrapped in tape, it didn't do anything, but it drew attention to it.

"I'll help." Naruyo unbuckled the gag in no time and it fell away from my face. "Mmmm-mmmm!" I tried to open my mouth, but failed. It took a few seconds for her to understand my predicament. "Oh, that. Hold still." She stuck her fingers in my mouth and easily plucked it out just like the others could do. Even with the gag out, I could still barely move my jaw due to the soreness.

"Naruyooooo~" Suddenly able to talk again, my repressed feelings burst out and I fell onto her lap again.

"Ko-chan, what happened to you? How did you end up like that?" Hinari insistently tried to get more info from me.

"A-Asami... she challenged me to a duel... said I ruined everything by coming here... I had to duel to determine who would leave. I lost the duel... but I don't want to leave..." I gave the whole story in between sobs. Naruyo twitched when she heard the content of the bet.

Hinari started to tremble as she heard more and more of the story. "And those?" She pointed to the rings vibrating on my nipples.

"Loser's punishment. Also down here..." I pointed between my legs where two vibrators were going wild. Now that I was calming down and not so overcome with sadness, the vibrators were starting to turn on and force my hips to move again. "Asami took the remote... ahh--"

Hinari slammed the table. "That bitch. Just wait, I'll solve this."

"Wait. Calm down." Naruyo tried to mediate, but Hinari completely ignored her. "Don't even try to stop me, Na-chan." She yelled back as she took the stairs two at a time.

"She's become quite protective of Ko-chan since she came." Sakari mused as she rubbed my back.

* * *

Upstairs, Hinari didn't hesitate at all to slam open Asami's door without even knocking. "Asami, you bitch, what do you think you did to Ko-chan?"

Asami stood up from her chair. "She had it coming. She's not like us. You all are playing around as friends, but you know it can never work out."

Hinari's vision turned red for a second. "Do you... have any idea the kind of shit that is coming out of your mouth right now?"

Asami was unfazed "We were fine before she came. All this year, I haven't heard a single sentence that didn't have the word Ko-chan in it. You guys have all been seduced by her. I tried to make Matsuko see reason, but she's been talking to me less and less as time goes by. I had to take things into my own hands."

Hinari staggered as she tried to comprehend the rant coming out of Asami's mouth "You...you've lost your mind. What the hell kind of delusions are going on in there? No matter. We're going to end this right now. You crossed the line today, Asami."

Hinari continued "Of course, I can't speak for Matsuko, but I will at least take some advanced interest for her. Asami, you dare accept my challenge?"

Asami scowled "You'd go this far for her? How far we've fallen as a group. Fine, I'll make you see sense by stomping you under my foot." She walked past Hinari towards the door, spinning a little remote around her finger with a string.

"Wait. Is that the remote for Ko-chan's... Give me that" Hinari snatched the vibrator control and tried to turn it off, but a mysterious power kept her from moving the sliders. A small magic ring of runes on Asami's finger glowed, and the remote disappeared, reappearing in her hand.

"Ha ha, Hinari. The law we agreed on was that the winner would control the loser's vibrators. You don't seem to have any relation to our bet, so it's no wonder you can't control it. Even if I lose this game with you, you can't do anything to stop me from making Kogamo a living wreck." Asami was triumphant, and left the room laughing.

* * *

We could hear laughing coming from the second floor after Hinari stormed into Asami's room, and slowly, that laughing got closer. Asami slowly walked down the stairs, followed by an enraged Hinari.

"Oh, Kogamo, I see you got saved, since I assume you didn't get free yourself. Nothing to say to me? Could it be that your captors didn't bother to take the gag out of your mouth because they didn't want to hear your pathetic crying?"

I stood up and grit my teeth, but my mind blanked when I saw the person who had tormented me so much in the last week, and couldn't think of anything to retort with.

"Was I actually right? That's hilarious, even better than I imagined. And look at you, right after being utterly humiliated at my hands, you're still holding your arms in reverse prayer like you haven't had enough. You didn't even take the tape off your hands, either. You just can't help yourself, can you? Hurry up and get out of the way, the adults are about to settle their differences."

I was trembling, but I just.. couldn't open my mouth to dispute what she was saying. As I was reaching my limit, a pair of arms hugged me gently from behind. "Enough. Leave to Hinari." Naruyo brought me back to the couch and sat down, placing me on her lap and holding me close.

Asami laughed to herself "Okay, I'm here. Show me this so-called interest you want me to pay. Shall we determine it with a coin flip?" She flipped the coin from her pocket into the air and caught it.

Hinari growled "Do you think you're going to trick me with that bullshit coin of yours?" She stepped forward and snatched it out of the air and looked at it. "As I expected, heads on both sides. What a cheap trick."

I couldn't help but blurt out, "Ah! You cheated then!"

Asami shrugged her shoulders, "It may be a cheap trick, but it worked plenty well on her." She ignored my cries of anguish from behind her.

Hinari got calmer at this point, as if I was draining the rage out of her myself. "I just can't believe it. I've known you for so long, but you were this kind of person."

Asami frowned, "Aren't we all like this? I don't know anyone who wouldn't bend the rules if it got them what they want."

Hinari cut off the debate about morality and got to the point, "Cut the shit. If you lose, I'll have you join in Kogamo's position training with no ending date."

Asami smirked, "If I win, you get to wear those cute panties you got at the convention from now on, but I get to hold the remote."

Hinari smiled back, "So, we are both in agreement then, how shall we decide the winner? Let us not waste time with elaborate escape games and pick something more straight forward."

"Well, you always seem to be a fan of rock-paper-scissors, don't you? Why don't we decide based on that?" Asami remembered that their games were always protracted, with many ties before deciding a winner. She felt like she would have an advantage since Hinari was infuriated and in a hurry to win.

Hinari's smile grew wider, "Very well. Shall we play first to ten wins?"

They backed away from each other and got into position. They pounded their hands in rhythm, and one by one the results came in.

"Rock beats scissors."

"Scissors beats paper."

After ten short rounds, a shocking result was achieved.

"This... how... who could win ten times in a row..." Asami staggered backwards like she had been punched.

"...That's how it goes sometimes. Seems like I'm just too lucky. Now, are you gonna pay the price?"

"No, I won't accept this! I want a rematch. You had to have cheated!" Asami flew into a rage.

"Well. Double or nothing, you say? I guess I could get a little greedy. Another ten rounds. If you win, we'll call the whole thing off, but if I win, you get the training from before AND you also get the panties you wanted to give me. Finally, you give both your remote and Ko-chan's remote to me." Hinari told her terms of surrender.

Asami grit her teeth and had no way to refuse. "Fine. I accept."

This round was even shorter, but ended with the same outcome.

Asami rushed up and grabbed Hinari's collar "Tell me how you cheated. I don't believe this 'lucky' bullshit."

Hinari shoved her away and looked spitefully at her, "What now? Are you going to keep going? Or cut your losses?"

Asami's eyes trembled, and she started looking like a gambler who couldn't afford to lose, "I...don't believe.. you can keep this up..."

Hinari walked over to me and picked up the muzzle that was in my mouth earlier as she laid out her final offer "This will be the final game. Since I'm tired of listening to your bullshit, you will wear one of these at all times unless we absolutely need to hear from you, as determined by the rest of the council. And since I'm feeling quite spiteful, you're going to have to wear clothes designed by Ko-chan from now on. You looked quite nice in that maid costume you were wearing before Ko-chan moved in. Now, are you in? or are you a coward?"

I started saying something like "Wait, Asami wore my maid costume?" but Naruyo covered my mouth with her hand and ssshed in my ear.

Asami's whole body started trembling now. Her whole life could change based on the result of this bet. She hesitated so long that even Sakari started goading her. "Come on, what's taking so long? It's not that hard of a choice!"

She grit her teeth harder and harder while looking at Hinari's mocking grin, until finally she yelled "FINE, I HOPE YOU DIE."

They got back into position, but... there was no change in fate. Asami slumped to the ground, a gambler who lost everything, and then lost even more. "..how...tell me.."

Hinari kneeled down next to her and whispered to her, but loud enough for everyone to hear "Asami-chan... you're way too easy to read. Everyone's been able to see what you were about to throw even since grade school. We all just forced a lot of ties to not make you feel bad when we win. Sometimes we'd lose on purpose when it didn't matter, too. But this time, you hurt Ko-chan a lot, and I can't forgive you for that. Now, feel free to drown in despair, Asami-chan. You owe at least that much to Ko-chan."

As Hinari's confession continued, Asami's eyes unfocused and lost their light, like she was losing her very soul. "Then.. from the very beginning.."

"Ah... yeah... from the second you suggested rock-paper-scissors, you were screwed." Hinari put a finger to her chin and smiled.

Asami laughed pathetically to herself and staggered to her feet just in time for the crystal to start lighting up. Normally, the magic rune circles only surround the neck of the target, but this time, they spread out around her whole body.

"Is it because so many laws are being created at once? Are their powers amplifying?" Hinari didn't know what was going on and could only watch from a distance.

The rune circles came more into focus, becoming bands around her ankles, thighs, wrists, and shoulders. A more elaborate matrix of rune symbols appeared on her face in the shape of a head harness. Finally, symbols appeared on her crotch and nipples. They started to spin and glow even faster before shrinking and bonding with her skin to become tattoos. Unlike normal, Asami started to scream as the tattoos formed, apparently in extreme pain. She fell to her knees and convulsed with pain for about thirty seconds before she stopped and just slumped to her side and panted.

She staggered back to her feet and started to say "What the h--" when her mouth suddenly snapped shut. The head harness tattoo reappeared and pulsed with blue light for several seconds before disappearing again. She was looking this way and that, and I could tell she was wrestling with her jaw because I had spent most of the week like that myself. She made some unintelligible sounds before reaching in to try and free herself. The second she reached into her mouth, the harness runes glowed once more, and her eyes grew larger and desperate. After roughly ten seconds this time, the symbols faded, and her eyes went back to normal again.

Naruyo narrated into my ear. "Punished by runes. Gag grew down her throat."

"Wait.. how do you know?" I whispered back. She just smiled and said "I can see."

Asami stomped her feet and started making unintelligible noises again when her clothes flashed with blue lines, then fell to pieces on the floor. She immediately squealed and started to cover herself, but the four rune tattoos on her arms glowed, and slowly forced her arms behind her, despite her struggles. Next, she slowly raised herself onto her tip toes and stopped there, staggering around to keep her balance. She raised each one at a time and I could see her foot trembling.

"Ankles locked. Like yours." Naruyo whispered in my ear again.

Finally, the symbols on her stomach and nipples started to glow, and you could see that her nipples started to vibrate. Not only that, but she started to dance around on the spot and press her legs together. In Hinari's hand fell a pair of remotes, one with an 'A' on it and one with a 'K'. She immediately turned the 'K' remote off and then smiled at me. The vibrators inside me died off and I was finally at peace for the first time in a while.

"...Ahhhh, finally..." I sighed with happiness onto Naruyo's shoulder. I no longer cared about Asami's punishment, and I whispered to Naruyo, "We can go now." She nodded and picked me up in a princess carry and headed for the stairs. "Leave rest to you." She nodded at Hinari as she passed her by.

"Yeah." Hinari didn't look away from Asami's final dance with the vibrators before Asami slumped to the floor.
