Lex awoke in the dream
Put more correctly, she became perfectly aware while still asleep - much like a lucid dream.
She'd only had one or two of those before, yet she knew something was profoundly different this time. she'd never been this aware that she was dreaming. the world around her lacked definition - not that it was a blank white canvas, just undefined.
As soon as she began to look around her, her mind began to fill in the blanks. she must have been mistaken. She was in her room all along. of course. Dreamlogic was beginning to fill in the logical gaps as well.
The netfeed was on, streaming the latest reality videoblog to her screen.
the fisheye lens of her dream-focus filled in the shows for a moment, the rest of her room falling back into undefined haze. Lex waved her hand at the screen, activating gesture remote.
The gui popped up, and she flipped through the random, looking for an interesting feed.
'so many strange feeds,' she thought as she flipped. Sports, sports, sports, game show, cuming of age, fit to be tied, lustgirl... the innuendo became more and more explicit as she scrolled. she felt a strange sensation welling up within her, and feeling mischevious, she impulsively keyed on the feed 'slave guide'
Somehow, within the dream, it made perfect sense that she was seeing herself in the monitor, but she was dressed so strangely, covered in a shiny black catsuit that appeared to be made from stretchy smooth synthtex. she wondered what it felt like to wear such a thing, and lay back on the bed a bit. her hand rested on her stomach a moment, but felt different than normal. Lex ran her hand against her side, it was smooth and slick. she looked at her hand, and it was encased in the shiny black synthtex. she realized she was wearing the catsuit. how had she gotten into it? She paniced for a moment, confused, but It felt so good... she caressed her body, soaking in the new sensation, and her focus returned to the monitor. someone else entered the scene, but she couldn't quite make them out.
In the feed, the mystery figure reached towards the onscreen Lex, holding something close to her lips. The onscreen lex opened her mouth, and lex did the same. She watched as her netfeed counterpart was gagged, and she felt the smooth round rubber ball with her tongue, her lips closing almost all the way around it. She moaned gently into the gag, closing her eyes.
Lex felt someone take her arms by the wrists, and she lay back, pinned down onto the soft bed.
When She opened her eyes, she found herself within the vidfeed, and tried to make out the identity of her mystery man, but his face was hidden in shadow.
Finally, lex pulled herself away from the sensations long enough to slightly change the focus of her dreamworld, and light seeped into the room, as if cast through the slats of an unseen window. The bars of light slowly slinked across the room then up and over her mystery lover. she saw his face in the strobing flashes of the passing light, and jumped, trying to get free from his grip. the light had passed over his grinning face and then returned them both to darkness as it slid on across the room.
she was held in his unyielding grip, and tried to speak through the gag but was only able to grunt. Her guide pressed down on top of her and whispered in her ear
'took you long enough, Lex... I thought you'd never bring me in.'
'mmph?!' Lex attempted to reply, struggling again in vain to free herself.
her guide laughed softly
'If you want to get up, lex, then get up. its your dream after all.'
lex froze... what did he mean, dream. she could feel his body on top of hers, could feel the sweat forming inside her synthtex suit. Lex's eyes darted about the bare, dark room, it seemed real enough, but how had she gotten here? the fuzzy logic of her dream world began to show its holes.
'Ahh, finally starting to piece it together, are we?'
lex's vision focused firmly on her guide as he held her fast. A mix of fear and excitement was coursing through her veins.
'thats right, lex, this is your dreamworld. you're in control. you can free yourself, throw me across the room, or even wake up, and none of this will have been real. it's all in your mind - you made all of this, Lex.
Of course, i may have planted a hint or two, but in the end, you chose the vidfeed, I only tweaked the program guide a bit.'
lex looked at her guide defiantly from beneath him. She was still trapped, firmly held in his grip. he grunted into the gag, thrashing her head and trying to squirm from his grip. he only laughed.
'you still don't believe me?get up, lex, get up!' her guide was yelling at her now, taunting her from above as she struggled.
Lex continued to thrash about, kicking and grunting forcefully into her gag. She yanked at her arms, held fast by her guide, all the while taunting her to free herself. She was working herself into a frenzy, and about to reach a fever pitch.
'I Can't!' lex screamed, falling back down onto the bed in exhaustion.
'well done, Lex.' her guide said soothingly from above her.
panting, lex turned her head back to face her guide. her gag was gone.
How had she done it? it was there, and as soon as she'd forgotten about it, focused on something else enough, it was gone.
lex closed her eyes and thought for a moment. She forced herself to envision another time and place. She could feel the guide above her still, but the feeling was fading. The bed was so soft...
she opened her eyes to find herself standing in a misty, twilight filled garden.
Slightly disoriented, but feeling strangely serene, she walked through the flowers for a moment, running her hands over the blossoms. As she walked, the flowers rose up around her and became more and more exotic. giant leafy vegetation and huge, shiny fruit mixed with the biggest blossoms she'd ever seen wove up and around wrought iron fencing.
She followed the fence as darkness fell, walking into a forest of the strange flora.
From one of the trees, there were dozens of what looked like seedpods handing, nearly the size of lex herself. they were slick and shiny, like giant black eggplant.
they reminded her of synthtex, and that reminded her of something else.
what was it?
Lex looked at her arm and found it covered in the same mirrorlike blackness that covered the seedpods. She was still wearing the catsuit. She remembered being with her guide somewhere... Where had she been?
Lex felt something nudge the back of her left leg.
she turned, startled, and spun halfway round before she noticed the little doglike creature cowering, at her feet, frightened by her quick movement.
'aww.. hey little guy, it's ok, i'm not going to hurt you.' lex cooed as she crouched and half knelt to get closer to the small animal. She stroked the creatures head, and it looked up at her, it's huge glassy eyes giving it the appearance of a lost puppy.
It blinked twice, panting a bit, and then straightened up onto it's hind legs. It's front arms were short and under-developed, making the big headed thing look a bit like a sad, round headed t-rex.
It seemed to catch it's breath, and then with a heave, started running again, around Lex and into the forest.
"We'll.. What's he running from?" she said quietly to herself with a smile. She turned her head to watch him scamper off, but as soon as he was under the tree with the huge hanging seedpods, one of them dropped to the ground with a "whomph!"
The little creature was gone. One of the smaller, eggplant like things had dropped down and engulfed him. It began to raise back up into the tree, and lex could see the little outside of the shiny black thing bulge and pulse where the creature was thrashing inside of it. For almost a minute it swung and bulged outward, but slowly, it sucked to his shape and became more and more still, with only an occasional spasm of movement.
"Oh god..." Lex said as she looked up at the tree with many pods more than big enough to fit her. She tried to move away, but her knee had gotten stuck in something when she kneeled to greet the little creature. She was stuck in some kind of sap, and it was stretching like rubber as she tried to free herself. Her knee was almost free when she felt the pod descend on her.
It hit her hard, knocking the wind out of her, but also gave around her, swallowing her in it's blackness. She tried to throw it off, but it was too heavy, and it was closing around her from below. Her knee was pulled from from the sticky sap as the pod closed the remainder of the way, and she could feel herself being lifted into the air. She tried to claw her way out of the sack, but it was no use. The thing really was like synthtex, rubbery and strong.
The vines of the tree reeled her up into the air, and the pod began a rhythmic sucking action, at first pressing itself to her, and forcing all the air out from around her. It quickly created a vacuum tight seal all around her, and lex again found herself thrashing about, trying to get air.
"Guide!" She screamed, muffled within the pod, fighting for her life inside the suffocating sack. More than a minute must have passed, and Lex began to lose consciousness.
"I'm going to die here" she thought, as the last wisps of consciousness began to leave her. She barely noticed the sudden shift of her weight, or the sensation of cool air on her face. When she opened her eyes again, her guide was looking down at her. She still couldn't move but she could breathe.
"funny... When you left, weren't we just about in this position?" lex's guide laughed gently from above her. Lex was laying on the forest floor.
She breathed heavily, and tried to look around, feeling out her situation. She was still in the sack except for the patch her guide had cut out in front of her face. She could barely move a muscle, but when she wasn't terrified for her life, the pod was actually quite exciting. Full body bondage taken to the extreme. It was still attempting to purge the air from it's inner chamber, as well, it's musculature squeezing rhythmically up and down lex's body. Two waves cascaded up her as her guide touched the pod, pressing into her sensitive areas. Discreetly, Lex pressed back with her hips.
"Again, it took you long enough to bring me in here Lex... You'd really rather risk it in some enchanted forest than think of me long enough to give me dreamfocus?"
"After what you did?" Lex retorted, embarrassed at her excitement as she recalled the earlier dream, and her current predicament.
"Ah. Be careful how you define things here, Lex" her guide quickly chided her. "I can influence an idea or two and lay paths in front of you, but never forget that this is your dreamworld. You alone choose which path you take. You're calling all the shots here. If you have a thought or wish, it will be granted... But be careful of what your subconscious gives away. I can't be helped, if secretly, what I did... what I'm doing, is what you want.
Lex felt herself blush. Her guide had called out her single darkest secret - the thing which could instantly force her exile from her family and the entire citiverse. Another wave of constriction rolled up the pod, massaging and constricting around Lex. She closed her eyes and pressed back again in spite of herself, giving in to the sensation and the myriad of events which had transpired.
She felt her guides lips on hers, cool compared to her own. She kissed him back passionately, her tongue exploring his. He pulled back, and whispered into her ear.
"I'm you're guide Lex. This is our secret... ours to share" As soon as he had finished speaking, the pod began a slow acceleration in it's workings. Soon Lex was moaning and pushing back and forth against the constricting confines of the pod. The pod grew back up and over her mouth, pushing her further and further... A scream emanated from some carnal place deep within her just as the pod sealed closed again.
Lex awoke in her room covered in sweat, electro-mag harmonizer cupping the back of her head.
