Catgirl: Catspaw (Synne City Super Heroines in Peril Series Book 21)
Page 4
Glory Girl was brought up last, looking battered and tousled. Someone had removed her top as well. Of all of the heroines, the usually perky sidekick looked to be in the worst condition.
The five vanquished super heroines watched miserably as their Objects of Power were placed at Toni's feet. The mob boss never looked so happy and pleased.
"My, would you look at the time?" Toni asked, smirking. "Unmasking o'clock already."
Chapter 7
"So." Toni clapped her manicured hands together. "Anyone care to volunteer to be first?"
The mob boss bit her lip and locked eyes with Catgirl. A lump formed in the helpless heroine's throat as her body tensed and her mind spun out of control. Her heart started racing, and that was before she spotted one of Toni's henchmen lift up his phone and start recording.
"This is going to a live feed, right, Edward?" Toni asked.
"Yes, ma'am," he said. "I'm showing over six hundred viewers already, and growing fast."
Glory Gal grunted. Catgirl groaned. A live feed meant there wouldn't be any way to erase the memory of everyone who'd witnessed their unmasking. They would be truly outed and doomed. The men holding Catgirl tightened their grips on her arms.
Toni walked over to Glory Girl, leftmost in the line. Midnight Avenger anchored the other end. Catgirl felt a sense of relief that she wasn't singled out for unmasking first. And then guilt flooded her consciousness.
"Hi, sweetie," Toni purred. She stroked Glory Girl's platinum blonde hair. The mob boss freed the sidekick's long, long hair from her pigtails, and then lifted her trembling chin. Toni squatted before the young heroine, one finger tracing her white mask, before she cupped her large tits in both hands and gave them a firm squeeze. "I think you're gonna be the prettiest unmaskee on the block." She glanced back at Dynamo. "Shame I promised you to Dynamo. She's going to make you her sidekick, and her bondage fuck toy, too."
"Get your hands off her, bitch," Glory Gal snarled.
"Your new mentor and mistress will be a lot more fun than that old sourpuss," Toni said, cutting her eyes toward Glory Gal. "Speaking of." One hand dropped down between Glory Girl's legs, slipped under her skimpy shorts, and stroked her nether lips. "Just as I suspected, Lil Glory Skank is sopping wet. She's hot and ready to trot, Dynamo. Good choice."
To Catgirl's surprise, Toni didn't unmask Glory Girl. Instead, the mob boss moved over to squat before Kunoichi. She pulled the heroine's costume open, exposing a pair of impressive breasts. Kunoichi gasped and averted her eyes when Toni started rolling her erect nipples. The mobster leaned in to kiss and nibble Kunoichi's shoulder and neck, and soon the hapless heroine's back bowed in time with a long, low groan.
"So much for ninja composure," Toni whispered. One hand dropped between the heroine's wide-spread legs, and started rubbing vigorous circles over her pussy. Kunoichi cried out, eyes staring incredulously into space. "Tell me your name, your secret identity, and I'll stop."
"Never. I'd rather… Ooooh," Kunoichi gasped out. "Please. Too much."
Catgirl watched with dread as Kunoichi's eyes rolled up. Then came the head-roll, and violent shudder.
"Aaggghh!" Kunoichi cried, starting to grind her pussy against Toni's hand. "You bitch."
"Honey, at least be a little more creative," Toni said as the men laughed.
With the sexy Japanese-American left a trembling, huffing, puffing mess, Toni stood up and slowly circled Midnight Avenger. Her hand caressed the heroine's soft cheeks, stroked that sweet-smelling hair. Then she leaned over and yanked the purple-clad vigilante's head back.
"We have you in our power again, my pretty," Toni purred, before kissing her. "This time you won't be able to escape and wipe our minds. And you will learn to obey like a… Good girl."
"Ugh. Oh! No, please," Midnight Avenger cried out. She started squirming, eyes wild.
"Good girl," Toni said again.
"Ooooooh," the gorgeous heroine groaned. Then in a breathy, soft voice, "Please, I'll be good."
Catgirl's jaw dropped. Had they done something to Midnight Avenger while she was their captive? Was she more brainwashed than they suspected?
"Kneel and deliver," Toni said in a commanding voice. "Tell me your real name."
"I'm… I'm… I'm An… No," she said, shaking her head violently. "I will not obey!"
"Damn, you almost made her give up her secret identity, Boss," one of the thugs holding the black heroine said.
"I know. She's going to be so much fun," Toni said, and moved over to the next member in that line of submission, Glory Gal. "Ah, the platinum princess her own sexy self. How are you feeling, Ms Inglorious? Is your head still aching from Dynamo's blast? Want an Aspirin?"
"Fuck you," Glory Gal snarled.
"Wow. I've got my work cut out," Toni said. "That dirty mouth of yours will be a lot dirtier by the time my boys finish with you tonight."
"I know my mouth was a sloppy mess at the end of my first night of captivity," Dynamo said. "Of course, I learned to enjoy it. Right, boys?" The redhead grabbed a fistful of long blonde hair and yanked Glory Gal's head back. "As will you."
"She's right," Toni said, dropping to her knees before the captive blonde. She unzipped Glory Gal's white bustier and tossed it aside, before reaching down and tearing off her skimpy short-shorts. "Oh wow, you're completely waxed bare. Not a pube to be seen. Does the sidecunt have a full Brazilian too?"
A man moved up to Glory Girl and ripped her bottoms away. "Yes she does."
"I knew you were all a bunch of oversexed sluts," Toni sneered as she began rubbing Glory Gal's pussy. Her other hand pinched and rolled an erect, pink nipple. Soon, Dynamo claimed the groaning heroine's lips in a deep, passionate kiss while Toni kissed and sucked on her long, slender neck.
Catgirl had to look away. She was tingling inside and out. It was hard to breathe, and it felt super hot. The catsuited heroine's belly was a hot mess, and her pussy began to throb with achy need. She had no doubt Toni would rub one out of her in seconds flat, if she didn't come by herself. Moaning miserably, she struggled to escape. Mere inches away, Kunoichi was doing the same, looking just as aroused and desperate.
Glory Gal began bucking, moaning, and groaning. Catgirl tried to block out those sounds of pleasure. Her head lolled around. She squirmed and writhed. With her mind spinning, she couldn't think straight. Their chances of escape were slim. If only Ms Amazing and Amazing Girl would come flying in. Or Jazz.
They had to escape. If they didn't, the city would lose more than half of its super heroine corps. Only two super heroines would remain: Ms Amazing and Gold Avenger. And their sidekicks. And even their days would be numbered if Toni "Dynamoed" all of her current captives.
"No one's ever captured so many super heroines in one fell swoop like this before, Boss," one of the men said. "You're gonna go down in history."
"I know," Toni said, and then her fingers penetrated Glory Gal's pussy, plunging in deep.
The busty blonde heroine's back bowed, she stiffened, and then screamed into Dynamo's mouth. Catgirl watched with morbid fascination as the legendary super heroine climaxed once, twice, thrice in quick succession.
"This super bitch is halfway to tamed and claimed," Dynamo said rather smugly. "The bigger, more powerful they are as heroines, the harder and more profoundly they fall."
Toni left Glory Gal a quivering, limp mess. She looked more broken and defeated than any of her comrades. Catgirl swallowed the lump in her throat, unable to breathe, heart thundering in her ears.
Now it was her turn. Toni paced around her several times, stilettos cracking like gunshots, eyes raking her captive over with relish.
Don't cry. Don't cry. I can't let her see me cry.
"Thank you, Catgirl, you did an amazing job luring all of your friends and comrades into my trap," Toni purred.
"What? I don't understand."
A long finger stroked the blonde heroine's cheek, then slid under her cowl, and then dragged across her cheek to her nose, separ
ating the double-sided tape from her skin. It wasn't long before Toni did the same on the other side.
Catgirl froze, eyes huge. Her cowl was loose. Plucking it off would be easy as plucking a flower.
"You made the perfect catspaw," Toni said. "I fed you information, and you took the bait. Better yet, you brought all your hot friends to the unmasking party. I'll never be able to repay you for all you've done for me tonight."
Catgirl's mind went blank for a second. Then intense heat flooded her face, her body. Abject humiliation. Toni had set her up. Set them all up to fall. It was a trap and she'd failed to see it. Her friends and comrades would all suffer because of her incompetence.
"You bitch!" Catgirl cried, pure hatred and fury flooding her body and mind.
With a violent twist, she broke free of the men holding her. Catgirl surged to her feet as Toni cried out and fell back. Glory Gal shouted something, and tried to stand at the same time. Dynamo grabbed the other heroine's head while Catgirl came up face-to-face with the Ripa Family boss.
Catgirl head-butted Toni in the nose. As the boss wailed, blood spurting from her nose, and fell back, the enraged heroine spun with a vicious roundhouse to the side of a man's head. Once he'd fallen away, she pulled that foot in, turned slightly, and thrust that boot's stiletto heel into the mouth of the other guy that had held her prisoner. Then, out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Glory Gal spin on a knee and throw a kick at Dynamo's knee.
"Die!" Dynamo cried, and sent a powerful bolt straight into Glory Gal's head.
"Aaaaiiiieeee!" Glory Gal screamed at the top of her lungs.
Catgirl froze, watching in horror as Dynamo held onto the blonde's head with both hands, pumping a powerful jolt through her brain. Glory Gal was frozen, back bowed, and eyes rolled up. When Dynamo released her, smoke rose up from her eyes, nose, and mouth. Glory Gal released a pathetic squeaking groan, and toppled over bonelessly.
"And another one bites the dust," Dynamo crowed. "Who wants to be next?"
"No!" Glory Girl screamed, and plowed into the redhead.
Catgirl lashed out with a foot, connecting with Dynamo's head a second before Glory Girl knocked her away. Kunoichi was up and fighting by then. Midnight Avenger was still struggling with her handlers.
Before she rushed to her mentor's aid, Catgirl spotted the pile of Objects of Power. She rushed over and scooped them up before a mobster could take them away. Shoving her silver cathead down her costume, to have physical contact, Catgirl felt super powers return.
"Kunoichi!" she cried, tossing over the ninja's Object of Power.
"Ha! Now you are all doomed!" Kunoichi cried, snapping the steel choker around her slender throat. "You will know a ninja's wrath!"
"They're getting away!" Midnight Avenger shouted.
The purple-costumed heroine had broken free of one of her handlers, but the other still had hold of her right arm and hair. She was spending more time fending the first handler off than trying to break free. But Catgirl turned to find Toni gone, and both the van and SUV backing away.
"Help!" Glory Girl cried.
Catgirl's head whipped around to find Dynamo still had the upper-hand. She had bound Glory Girl's wrists back with a zip-tie. The naked sidekick was still fighting like crazy, giving the bigger, stronger Amazon quite a bit of trouble.
So Catgirl flew up and rocketed toward them.
"Shit," Dynamo growled, releasing the blonde sidekick.
The redheaded Amazon sent a thunderous bolt at Catgirl, forcing her to veer away. Then she took off after the SUV. Catgirl thought the turned heroine was just going to join her mistress and escape, but Dynamo took the time to scoop Glory Gal's limp body up before flying away. Catgirl so wanted to give chase, but her only super-powered backup was Kunoichi, and the remaining mobsters were starting to pull guns.
Catgirl couldn't tell which of the remaining power belts belonged to Glory Girl, so she quickly wrapped both of them around the sidekick's waist. Then she took off flying toward Midnight Avenger, flipped in midair, and drove her feet into the back of the thug holding her old mentor.
"Here," Catgirl said, pressing the tiara into Midnight Avenger's hand. "Let's kick ass."
And kick ass they did. It took the better part of five minutes to make all of the remaining Ripa goons run away, but their troubles were far from over.
"Heeeeey, looky what we got here!"
The heroines' eyes all widened at the sudden headlights, and rumble of engines. Faces, cruel and grinning, began surrounding them. Local gangbangers, no doubt investigating all the noise.
A dozen fresh young men were too many to deal with, so Catgirl scooped Glory Girl up in her arms and flew away. Kunoichi and Midnight Avenger followed, eyes peeled for any more surprises.
Chapter 8
"Let go of me! Let go, you miserable bitch!" Glory Girl screamed, twisting violently out of Catgirl's arms.
They'd only gone a mile when the sidekick recovered her wits, and then went crazy. Even though her arms were still bound behind her back, the blonde had broken free and flown away. Headed for the Ripa Estate.
"Stop," Catgirl called. "You can't fight them alone. Especially not like this!"
"Cowards!" Glory Girl shouted.
"We're just trying to help you," Midnight Avenger said. "Catgirl is right. There isn't anything you can do right now."
"We need to gather all the heroines together to attack them," Kunoichi said.
The three of them flew with and around the beautiful naked blonde. Glory Girl was crying, flush, and not listening. Catgirl remembered when the Ripas captured her mentor, Midnight Avenger, and knew how the sidekick felt. She remembered the soul-rending emptiness and sense of failure.
"Leave me alone! I'll save her if you're too scared to help," Glory Girl shouted. She sobbed for a moment. "I can't abandon her. I have to save her. I just have to!"
Seeing an opening, Catgirl swooped in and threw an arm around the other heroine's neck. Bringing Glory Girl to a stop a hundred feet above the street, she held tight as her captive kicked, twisted, and screamed more obscenities. Midnight Avenger and Kunoichi streaked in to help. Together, they were able to wrestle the crazed beauty down to a rooftop.
"I hate you! I hate all of you!"
"Hush, sweetie. It'll be alright," Midnight Avenger whispered.
"Please, I have to save her," the sidekick said in the most pathetic tone of despair. "She's all I have. Glory Gal's more than a mentor to me. She's my best friend."
"I know," Kunoichi replied. "We all understand. But it's too late. I'm not even sure she's still alive."
A chill rolled up Catgirl's spine. Until that moment, she didn't want to consider whether Glory Gal was dead or alive. She'd seen the smoke rising out of the vanquished heroine's mouth, nose, and eyes. Who could survive that? Even if Glory Gal was alive, her brain was probably dead. A vegetable.
Midnight Avenger moved off to call someone. Catgirl could barely hear the older heroine between Glory Girl's wails and sobs. She and Kunoichi stayed with the distraught sidekick, stroking her hair and trying to give her some comfort. A few moments later, Midnight Avenger returned.
"Ms Amazing and Amazing Girl are on the way over. Glory Girl already knows their secret identities, so they will take her home," she whispered. "They'll take good care of her. Jazz has been notified, too. Maybe her magic can help."
Catgirl remembered that Midnight Avenger had declined Jazz's magical help after her own capture. The haunted look in her face as she spoke showed just how much she still struggled with what happened to her. Then Catgirl remembered how Toni and Dynamo had taunted her mentor with their twisted words.
"How come you haven't freed her wrists?" Midnight Avenger asked.
"She almost kicked my ass with them tied," Catgirl said. "Do you think untying her is a good idea?"
"I don't care. I'll not leave her bound so cruelly," she said. Midnight Avenger reached down, took hold of the zip-tie, and snapped it open. Leverage was everything. "Th
ere you go, sweetie. I promise, everything will be fine."
"No, it'll never be fine," Glory Girl said, curled up in the fetal position. "My life is over."
"Wow," Kunoichi said, blinking away tears.
They didn't have long to wait. Ms Amazing, Amazing Girl, Jazz, and Gold Avenger joined them atop that building. Jazz was wearing a little black dress and heels, and looked like she came straight from a cocktail party or something. Of course, City Witches didn't really need to wear costumes, though Jazz personally owned several. Ms Amazing and Amazing Girl were in their blue, red, and gold costumes. They all went straight over to Glory Girl and began examining the sidekick.
After a few minutes, Jazz cast a spell that put the sidekick into a fitful sleep.
"What happened?" Jazz asked. The gorgeous redhead was Dynamo's cousin, and they looked so much alike it was kind of uncomfortable. "What happened to Glory Gal?"
Midnight Avenger told their sad story. It sounded even worse than Catgirl remembered, but the older heroine didn't embellish it at all. Then Ms Amazing and Amazing Girl took Glory Girl away. Jazz and Gold Avenger stayed behind.
"Do you have any idea where they took Glory Gal?" Jazz asked.
"No. I doubt they'd take her back to the Ripa Estate, since that was where they took Midnight Avenger," Catgirl said, covertly watching her former mentor. "They would expect us to check there first. Also, I didn't want to repeat it in front of Glory Girl, but I don't think Glory Gal is still alive. She looked dead to me."
"Then why take her body?" Gold Avenger asked.
"To display it," Midnight Avenger whispered, eyes flashing. "These are sick, sick people. There are people who'd love to see a dead, naked heroine displayed on a meat hook."
"Wow. This is getting grim," Kunoichi said, and Catgirl nodded in agreement. "I have to be at work in a few hours. Keep me in the loop. I'll be there when you need me."
With that, Kunoichi flew away. Catgirl suddenly wished she had a proper day job to help take her mind off what just happened. Losing a fellow heroine always made her feel vulnerable and a little paranoid. It was a brutal reminder of just how dangerous crime fighting was for super heroines. The fact that so few survived to retirement wasn't something they liked to think about.
