Prince Wolfie's Coming Out Party

[Eucides]

Unfortunately for Thessius, there were too many people, and it was just too confusing to make transactions or talk about business. He looked around, uncertain, and a rare emotion he felt, if he felt any emotion at all, scared. Scared. He remembered that feeling. When the GRA (Greek Revolution Army) was at his front yard, throwing petrol bombs in. Him escaping with a broken leg, and burns. When the Young Turk Revolution tried to do a drive by on him. When the Radical Right Christians burned down his house. It was a feeling... a feeling he didn't like. He started to walk towards the door casually and slowly. His dark, deep brown eyes started to dart around the room. His tall structure of 6 feet, and 4 inches helped him scan the room. His three peice suit suddenly became stuffy, as his dress pants and shoes. His smooth tan-white skin was a bit sweaty. He was nervous. His breathing sped up...

[Veceria]

While the pleasure was mutual between the two young women, Tali couldn't help but whisper sweet nothings - compliments - into Lucia's head as they caressed each other against the walls of the dark room, letting their love unite into one collective mess of bliss and perspiration. It reminded Tali of the movies she used to secretly watch, especially when her access to the internet was never really watched due to her spotless moral record. Hell, even the showers on the women's track and field team made her feel most uncomfortable given the circumstances. But finally realizing her dream of being with - uniting with - another girl, another woman - was something unparalleled in how much excitement and satisfaction it offered the flesh, the mind, the soul. The flesh shakes with trepidation, the mind drowns in passion, and the soul is lifted up into the heavens sanctificed by an arrow of Cupid kissed by Aphrodite! - Tali shivered as she shed the cornily poetically written reactions from her mind. She giggled inwardly at that while letting her hands go all over her new beloved's flesh, albeit not going too far due to the voice in her head - the far back of it, like a child picked last for a team - uttering caution. Don't do it, it said, don't be all natural. Remember you're in a public place, Tali Cathka, and remember that Lucia's parents are here. Would they want to see you making love to their daughter?

But their dresses were coming undone amidst all the action as Tali pressed on. Neither came off as the both of them squeezed and caressed and kissed and whispered. But it felt like a hammer smashing one's head like a common ant when Tyrone burst into the room, disrupting the whole process with his unwanted intervention. Damn it, she thought, damn it. Why did he come in now? It was just getting great! She managed to chew him out followed by a long - exaggerated - kiss of Lucia right in front of the bewildered ambassador to shock him even further than she had. "Can't you see that I love this girl, Mr. Rawlings? I fucking love Princess Lucia and I'm not gonna let you prudishly walk in the middle of it like this!"

She scoffed at him like some typical aristocrat and looked over at Lucia, slapping her backside again before giggling like a common schoolgirl. She had been satisfied despite the fact that the passion was cut short from full consumation. As Rawlings shrugged, muttered something, and left the room, Tali merely looked into Lucia's eyes, leaning against the wall shoulder wise and letting her libido stay erect, albeit somewhat flaccid from the disruption. She hated Rawlings even though she sort of knew he was really just concerned for her well being. "That was wonderful, no matter what happened. I don't think we should go all the way just yet, though. It's not that I don't want to but I don't want more interruptions like what just happened. We'll go through it when we're all alone without anyone in our way, Lucia. But, until this party ends, let's spend some time together to get to know each other better - there's got to be more to you than that you're a fellow lesbian."

As Tali walked with Lucia back to the ballroom, adjusting her clothing, she smiled. "Did you know that I'm quite good at track and field? I've been quite the athlete for years and even know some yoga and gymnastics. That's why I was so flexible back in that room. It's one of my habits every morning to stretch my limbs out for the day's events. Coach always called me Clay Girl because he could mould me into anything he wanted. I don't mean anything like what we did but because I can do all of the events with relative ease - marathons, hurdle jumping, the works. Other than that, I'm generally just someone who likes to live life as much as I can. Hopefully with someone I can love..."

As Tali winked, she got Lucia and her some punch. "You must be thirsty. Here. Try some of this punch."

Drinking a little of her punch, Tali smiled. "So what's there to know about you, Lucia? What makes an angel tick?"

While Tali waited for Lucia to respond, she wondered how long this relationship could last. She wondered if she'd be able to stay in touch with Lucia or even visit her in Veceria or vice versa. Her parents would just think she made a new friend, not knowing the truth that lay behind it all. Ha, behind, Tali thought, laughing to herself.

Lucia hung on Talis lips. She soaked up every word that came out of the girl's mouth, just to be sure that she wouldn't forget anything. Not that she thought that she could ever forget this beautiful and silver-tongued angel. Somehow, she was quite leached out, but every word from Tali gave her some of her energy back.
"So, you are quite interested in athletics? Somehow, I am a athlete too, at least I think so. Like many other teens in Veceria, I practised free- running and was quite good at it."
She paused to take a deep breath. Yeah, that were quite nice evenings back then, with those cat- like female bodyguards near me. Maybe this influenced my sexual preferences, too, she thought. "Your coach called you Clay girl?" she giggled, "Maybe... you can show me how to be as flexible as you some day? The only nickname I ever had was Foxy, maybe because of my jumpy nature and childlike curiosity. Oh, and also maybe because I used to dye my hair red back then." Again, she giggled, but this time a little bit more. It wasn't because she thought that she was funny, but because she was still filled with happiness. Thankfully, she accepted the punch Tali offered her.
"Are you trying to get me drunk, my love?" she said, jokingly, "Or are you just testing my stamina?"
To Talis question, she replied: "Oh, I don't quite know where to start. I'm not like every other ordinary girl, but I think you already noticed that. I usually like being outdoors, either walking or relaxing, hunting and playing hockey with my brother. Oh, and I'm totally into back rooms." She smiled during the last sentence, hoping that Tali will understand the joke.

After a short time of silence. She turned towards Tali once again.
"Umm... I have to a question... Would... Would you like to accompany me when I'm flying back to Veceria? It would make me sooo happy! I think my parents wouldn't say anything against it."
Her eyes were sparkling with passion. Hopefully, she thought, she'll accept the invitation. Maybe we can have some more fun onboard the plane, afterwards.

[Eucides]

Thessius then calmed himself down. He went into the party again. Although he was wondering: Who or what was the silhouette that followed him around? Was it one of the Christian Movement assassins, or the Young Turks going to slice his throat? Or was it the GRA, that would shoot him from afar, and that was just a scout. To be safe, he weaved through the crowd, making sure no one was following him. He went to the bar, and looking around, started drinking water. He never drank alcohol. It confused his mind, and he hated it. He always had to watch his back. He wished for one night he could stay safe from the unrest and crime...

Her eyes were sparkling with passion. Hopefully, she thought, she'll accept the invitation. Maybe we can have some more fun onboard the plane, afterwards.

Tali chuckled. "Yep. I've done tons of marathons and fun runs. I've competed in track and field events on a team and've done quite damn good for myself, I'd say of it. It's why I'm so flexible. I can even do the splits if I wanted. I was scared, at first, when I thought of doing those - those humourous jokes on the television about doing the splits made me worry that I'd break some important bones or wouldn't be able to even get up again. I was young, then, but eventually I was able to do them and ever since I've been doing splits over and over again. It's important, though, that you don't over-exert yourself or you'll pull a muscle. I know how that feels and it's fucking horrible."

Tali sipped a little from her punch. "Silly nickname, isn't it? Clay Girl. The coach gave it to me because, like clay, I could be moulded to do good in any given situation. Whenever a marathon's on, I'm there to run it. Hurdles? Pffft. I could jump over those in my sleep." She sipped from her punch again, giggling when her mind registered Lucia's joke about the back room. "So you like to be outdoors, eh? I think we'll get along so nicely with that in mind. Think of all the fun activities we could do together - running, walking, hiking, and going to the beach....." Tali smirked, letting the silence at the end build up the effect in Lucia she hoped going to the beach would convey. Lucia in a bikini, Tali thought, would be so fucking sexy to see. Her mind drooled at the thought of it. It drooled more than the mind of the younger Tali who dreamed of her fellow girls on the track and field team in the showers. Oh, she thought, it made her feel so boyish. "Get you drunk?" Tali said. "Oh, we're already drunk. Drunk on love!"

Tali giggled as she slapped Lucia's backside again. "Love's the sweetest wine there is!" Tali cried, quoting a popular Xerutian film.

"I'd be easily able to teach you how to be flexible - I could even be your own personal trainer! When we're in Veceria after this party's ended, we can do some drills, but you're already pretty flexible as is. Hell, you managed to wrap your legs quite nicely around my waist....."

Tali kissed Lucia openly amidst the crowds and chuckled. "I'm not afraid of what people think about us," Tali told her newly beloved, "and you shouldn't be either - hell, why would anyone oppose it? We're at a gay guy's party for goodness sakes. We should go find your parents to tell them I'll be coming with you."

They managed to bump into Tyrone Rawlings again. He came to apologize for disrupting their fun. "I was just worried that people would demean you, Tali, for making out with your girlfriend in public like that. You know how people can get - especially in our age of the paparazzi and all."

Tali scoffed. "Let them say what they want. I love Lucia Fenris and I'm not going to let anyone separate us. Got it, Mr. Rawlings?"

"Don't be so defensive," he said, "when I'm not on any offensive. I'll see you later, Tali."

"Nah," she said, "I'm going to Veceria."

"Veceria? Oh. Well, okay then."

And then he left.

"Don't worry about him, Luci." Tali said. "Yeah. Luci. That's my pet name for you. You can call me Tal. It's what they use back in Xerut for me anyways." Tali's smile widened into a wicked grin as she gulped down the rest of her punch - looking over at Lucia again, she chuckled and pointed to her parents in the distance. "There they are. Let's go talk with them, Luci."

"Maybe we can have some more fun onboard the plane," Tali thought. She thought of how it could be to lose her virginity with Lucia in a Fear of Flying situation. She weighed the possibility of success in her mind as she approached the King and Queen with respectful reverence while holding Lucia's hand rather tightly. It was love at first sight. So corny, Tali thought, so corny and lame but so so sweet....

[Eladvisio]

Thessius then calmed himself down. He went into the party again. Although he was wondering: Who or what was the silhouette that followed him around? Was it one of the Christian Movement assassins, or the Young Turks going to slice his throat? Or was it the GRA, that would shoot him from afar, and that was just a scout. To be safe, he weaved through the crowd, making sure no one was following him. He went to the bar, and looking around, started drinking water. He never drank alcohol. It confused his mind, and he hated it. He always had to watch his back. He wished for one night he could stay safe from the unrest and crime...

Yet, he was always being followed by the Viceroy, and this time he had binoculars. He watched Thessius in the bushes outside the bar he was at, staring at him through the window. He also saw that he was drinking some water, and wondered if he could slip a drug in there. So, he went into the bar, and when Thessius was not looking, slipped a date-rape drug in his glass of water, and sat in the table nearest to him, and waited.

[Eucides]

Thessius looked at the water. When he turned his back for a moment, he heard a clatter. He wondered if something happened. Then his mind silently told him, Relax; there's no enemies here. He saw a young, attractive man, walk over to a table near to him. He decided to go and say hi to him. He walked over to the table, grabbing his water with him, and said "Hello."

[Eladvisio]

Thessius looked at the water. When he turned his back for a moment, he heard a clatter. He wondered if something happened. Then his mind silently told him, Relax; there's no enemies here. He saw a young, attractive man, walk over to a table near to him. He decided to go and say hi to him. He walked over to the table, grabbing his water with him, and said "Hello."

"Well hello, my name is Dennis. What's yours?"
"My name is Thessius," he replied. "What brings you to town?"
"Oh, just seeing the sights, What about you?"
He answers, "Umm... just... on vacation is all."
He then takes a long sip from his water. They talk for a few more minutes, then Dennis proposes that they head to Prince Wolfie's party.
"Sure, I'll go with you," he replied. Then they sat up and went.

[Eucides]

Thessius started walking to the party. But, he started feeling dizzy. "Hey..." Was all he said before his world went black.

[Eladvisio]

Thessius started walking to the party. But, he started feeling dizzy. "Hey..." Was all he said before his world went black.

Now the Viceroy starts to act his plan. He then carries Thessius to his car and drives him to his mansion. He takes him to his bedroom, and closes the door. The events that occur afterwards were too graphic to tell.

[Eucides]

Thessius awoke in a strange bed. The covers looked as if someone had a sleepless night. He sniffed the air, and his lower regions felt... sticky. He tried to remember what happened last night... Silhouette, Bar, and Sights came to his mind, but that was it. He looked around. He coughed and sat up. He then came to this dawning realization- that he blacked out and he was in and uncomfortable position. He couldn't be-
He started sobbing.

Thessius then heard a knock on the door. He slowly walked to the door and opened it. It was Anna Vaughn, one of the Viceroy's many maids. She was sent there to clean the room, but when she saw Thessius sobbing, she asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"

[Eucides]

Thessius didn't care. He ran out to the street, sobbing and crying. Eucidean officials picked him up, and rushed him to the nearest hospital. In the ambulance, he took out his M9, meant for protection from GRA and other revolutionary groups, and before anyone could do anything, he shot himself.

[Eucides]

I arrived in a black car. Three bodyguards, all equipped with army equipment, stepped out with me. I, Eucin Irykrillos, was protected. They gave me a poison detecting device, and a Desert Eagle. They said goodbye, and drove off. Just at age 18, I was shoved into polotics. I looked at myself. I patted down my dark brown hair. My blue eyes stared at my 3 peice suit, and I formed my face in such a way so that no one could tell what emotion I felt. I then walked into Prince Wolfie's Mansion.

[Eladvisio]

Then, Lucy Huang, Emissary to Eladvisio notices the president of Eucides, greets him kindly, and proceeds to give Prince Wolfie a gift from the Unified Congress.

[Veceria]

Lucia drifted into somewhat dirty daydreams as Tali spoke. Splits, going to the beach and also the image of Tali as her personal trainer... everything merged into a really naughty picture.
She felt safely snug at her lover's side. She neither complained about kissing in public (also because of the fact that for her as Vecerian, homosexuals kissing in public was a common sight), nor Tyrone Rawlings recurrence. She tenderly grabbed Talis left hand and they both walked towards her parents.

King David Fenris was just in the middle of a dialogue between him and a member of some unknown royal bloodline, as he saw his daughter approaching, hand in hand with the Xerutean girl she had seemingly met earlier. He was gifted with an increased sense of empathy, so he could tell, even from this distance, that something was making his daughter incredibly happy and excited. And the girl, what was her name? Ah, yes Tali. She seemed to share Lucia's feelings. As the two arrived, David cut his current conversation with a simple move of his hand and turned towards the two girls.

A few meters away from her father, Lucia suddenly felt nervousness rising in her. How would her father react? She knew that he was really open- minded about homosexuality and similar, but she also heard of the overprotective mood some fathers have. She closed her eyes for a few seconds, and with the warmth of Talis hand in her own, she managed to take the last steps towards the King.
"Umm... Dad? May I introduce Tali Cathka. She's my... my...", her voice dropped. Why's that so hard for me? she thought. The King was watching her compassionately all the time, so Lucia took a deep breath and started anew. "I wanted to tell you that she's my new... friend. I wanted to ask you if she could accompany us to Veceria. Her current companion, the ambassador you met before, didn't mind her flying with me. Please, it would be so nice of you!"

David looked into Lucias eyes for a long time. There was more she wanted to tell him. He saw that, but ignored that. If she would like to tell him more, he won't rush her into something she would regret later. "You're my daughter. You know me... How can I say no if you look at me like that?" He turned towards Tali. "Young Miss Cathka, you're gladly invited to accompany us."

[Eucides]

All the bodyguards cocked their weapons. I took the present in silence, my face still unfathomable. I put it in my pocket. I then walked around the Mansion until I found a place to sit and rest. The bodyguards all stood up around me, stern and unmoving. I took a deep breath in, and let it out. He told himself to stay alert at all times.

[Eladvisio]

But just then, the armies of Probstintine and Izenbel come in from military choppers and take the party-goers hostage, including Prince Wolfie, the Emissary of Eladvisio, and the President of Eucides.

[Galenaima]

OOC: I'm assuming they're in on this and that my nation's third-in-command is in danger. If the guy who started the hostage-taking is using those nations w/o permission, I'll delete this post.

At the sniper positions...

"HOLY SHIT!" Echo yelled from his position. "You getting this?"
"Yeah," Alpha said. "The General's OK, he's smart enough to know to stay calm. We're getting ready to storm the area and Foxtrot's called for more GCOPS. We have to move now."
"We've never lost a man before," Echo said. "We're not about to start now."
"I've got the General's chopper," Foxtrot said. "I have a .50 caliber machine gun, and plenty of explosive rockets. The enemy numbers about one hundred fifty, this'll be easy."
"Operation ready. Echo, can you make out their leader?"
"I've got an enemy officer in sight," he replied. "Ready when you are."
"This is Sigma. Delta, Echo and I are ready to move on your mark." They had assault rifles with thermal scopes and protective armor which could protect against the standard assault rifle.
"Foxtrot, you ready?"
"I have enemy choppers in sight. Ready to destroy."
"All ready?"
"Yes sir," Echo said.
"This is our moment to shine, gentlemen," Alpha said. "Snipers, ready targets, Delta, you guys prep to breach the main hall, and Foxtrot, lock onto their choppers."
"Ready over here."
"Charges set."
"Targets locked."
"These aren't the biggest nations," Alpha said. "They won't be the strongest of armies. 3...2...1...GO!"

At that moment, General Brutus checked his phone, and saw: Rescue inbound. The four snipers fired at their enemy soldiers with the quality accuracy GCOPS always had. As the snipers fired, Brutus yelled 'Duck!' while the three Galenian operatives detonated their charges and burst in, spraying bullets at the enemy troops. Foxtrot fired his rockets at the enemy choppers, and Brutus tackled the nearest person he could, so as to protect them from the gunfire.

"We're rescuers!" the operatives yelled, as they engaged the enemy in combat.

[Eladvisio]

OOC: First of all, they're my friends and don't care if they use them in these situations; and I asked them personally, so there you go.

The Galenian operatives killed all the enemy troops and liberated the partygoers; then the Eladvisian Emissary happily rejoiced and said, "OH THANK YOU, THANK YOU all the operatives and the gov't of Galenaima! I will contact the Unified Congress and tell them to send your gov't a generous sum of $50,000,000 USD!"

[Eucides]

I stood up, and sat down, my face still unfathomable. The guards again stood over me, watching the partygoers. I had another crisp, cool glass of water, and scanned each glass I took.

[Xerut]

Lucia drifted into somewhat dirty daydreams as Tali spoke. Splits, going to the beach and also the image of Tali as her personal trainer... everything merged into a really naughty picture.

"Young Miss Cathka, you're gladly invited to accompany us."

Tali was daydreaming about Lucia as well, usually placing Lucia and herself into specific scenes from the "movies" she had watched. These scenes were rather indecent, sensual, and rooted in pop culture's treatments of the naughty lesbian dominatrixes of the world. But while Tali dreamed of dominating Lucia in some grandiose moment of sensual bliss, more tender moments popped into her head that showed just how in love Tali really was with Lucia. For every scene of groping Lucia in the back room, there was a scene of them on a swinging little bench in front of a house as the sun drifted under the earth. For every scene there was of Lucia flirtatiously playing around with the straps of her bikini, there were scenes of Lucia and Tali enjoying their time together on hikes in the parks of Veceria and Xerut. And for every scene that there was of anything else ripped from Tali's "typically masculine" dreams about Lucia, there were visions of the future - a future in which both had a sweet, simple life of love, understanding, and mutual happiness. Basically, Tali's mind was split between the raunchy and the tender aspects of love, relatively equally. But when Tali saw that Lucia hesistated to call Tali her girlfriend, Tali didn't lose her cool. She knew that Lucia was just as a novice about this sort of stuff as she herself had been. The only difference was that Tali was always open with her friends. Her friends on the track and field team never knew that Tali was prone to ogling them. But now that she had met Lucia, no other girl, or woman, mattered in the slightest.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for allowing me to fly with you." Tali said nicely. Her tone of voice was soft, delicate - it stood in contrast to her bashful openness. She then looked to Lucia and smiled, looking into her eyes. It felt like Tali was letting her visions - the raunchy and the tender ones combined - drift into Lucia's mind for her to read like a lovely little book. A book that would be written for many years to come. "Lucia," Tali said, not caring if her father heard, or if anyone did, or ever would, or if anyone ever would or did dispute it, "I love you. I fucking love you! I know it's corny as all hell - love at first sight and our story sounding awfully like a lesbian fairy tale but, screw it, I want to make this shit work!"

And they tenderly embraced for that one - seemingly long - moment. When it stopped, Tali looked over to the King and giggled. "I can't wait till we arrive in Veceria! I don't know who you'd have to talk to for a visit to Xerut....but all I know is that, with Lucia snug at my side, Your Majesty, the idea of visiting your nation sounds so much sweeter to me."

Still holding Lucia's hand, Tali noticed Tyrone coming with his eyes set upon the monarch. "I could send word to Xerut for a possible visit if you wish, Majesty."

After Nikolai heard about the second death at the party, he decided to leave. He was scared, although the vodka he had took that way. He gave Prince Wolfie's father a goodbye, and Prince Wolfie a goodbye as well. He entered his personal limo to leave the capital and return to his nation. He liked the party, although thought that there was too many assassins at this party.

Nikolai Benski met a cute gay couple at the airport, and wondered if anyone like them would enter his life. He decided to get their number, and together they went to an informal party with no assassins.

Eucin was now drinking vodka. Understandably, he had been drinking water... as he was 18... but now he was drunk. He got swayed into the beat, as people were dancing. He took off his tuxedo and tie, and he stumbled frequently. There were two reasons for this, I. He had a blood alcohol content of .62, and II. He frequently stumbled over the couples on the floor, in intimate positions. The classical music had no effect on them, as most found partners, and were busy making out with them. He stumbled, with the guards following each step.

Eucin kept stumbling and stumbling, until he stumbled on top of Lucy Huang, with his face firmly planted on her breasts.

"GET OFF OF ME YOU DRUNK PERVERT!" yelled Lucy, and so she pushed him off. Eucin got up and stumbled to a nice empty couch, where he slept there for the rest of the night.

Humiliated by this, Lucy hailed her private limo and quickly went straight home.

Eucin coughed as he was pushed back. He hit the cough with a satisfying sigh, and slept. He dreamt about the day he decided he would do something... He remembered the day. It was hot. He was a child, 6 years old. Then they came. They shot all the resistance, which included his father. They were just a pitiful collection of men with guns. The GRA sacked his village. They came into his house, grabbed his sister, molested her, while he saw his mother getting raped and raped, over and over. His brother, being shot in the head. The GRA ran out when the reinforcements arrived. They were too late. He saw his family fall apart... then his sister hanged herself and his mom. He cried in the corner. Although, something was wrong. When he cried in that corner, his mom put her hands on his shoulder. The whole nightmare dissapated into a swirl of black, and he woke up. And he screamed.
