John looked shocked at the implication of her suggestion, and Heather realized she had pushed it too far. John and Kim seemed a little conservative, and she should have guessed that he would not want to spend the rest of his life in a permanent threesome. She was afraid that she had lost him. So Heather was surprised by his response.
"Okay, I'll do it, "said John quietly.
"Really, you want to merge with us?" asked Heather.
"No!" said John sharply. "But I will let you contaminate me. I have no idea how long Kim will be like this, how long she will live. I think she needs a companion - a stable companion - who can help her, and keep her happy over the years. I don't know if I am the best candidate, but I doubt she will get many more volunteers to spend the rest of their life with her in this prison. I just hope I am good enough for her."
"How very noble. I am sure it has nothing to do with any sexual desires, " said Heather dryly.
John glared at her with a angry scowl.
"Whatever, whatever. I am not one to judge, " said Heather.
"So how do he do this? Do you need to bite me or something? " asked John.
Heather laughed softly. "Nothing that dramatic. A few licks should do it. There should be enough of the compound still in my saliva to change you. It worked for Kim, at least. But we can't do it now. We're still being watched, " said Heather motioning towards the technician on the booth. "If I try anything, they will just shock me before we can complete the process. And then I am sure you would be out on your ass, never allowed to see Kim again."
"Well, what do you suggest? " asked John.
"We wait until the shift change. Around 6AM, the guards leave the balcony to switch places with their replacements in the barracks. If you cut the power at just the right time, they should all be trapped in there. Cutting the power will also disable all the monitoring equipment, alarms, and of course, my special necklace here, " said Heather, tugging gently on her shock collar.
"Wow, " said John. "You have really put a lot of thought into this. How long have you been planning this?"
"Every day, every hour, every minute since I was locked up I have been planning my escape. The same plan should help you and Kim get together, " said Heather.
"Wait, if the power is cut, how will I get down here from the platform? The elevators won't have power, " said John.
Heather tilted her head to a large steel door on one side of the building. Food and other necessities were brought to Kim and Heather through the door. The building had essentially been built around them, so the doors were much too small for them to fit through. But the doors were still very large and heavy, big enough for a semi-truck to enter.
"I'll never be able to get through those! They are way too heavy, " said John.
"Oh, don't worry about that. Just cut the power and disable the electronic locks, and I'll make sure that they are open, " said Heather.
"Okay, sounds like we have a plan. I guess I'll see you in a few hours, " said John, as he made his way back to the elevator.
"Looking forward to it, " said Heather, as John began to ride up the elevator. "You are doing the right thing, John. Trust me. Kim is going to love your new body, and so will you."
Heather smiled wickedly. Her plan had not worked perfectly, but she still would get the desired outcome. She had no intention of remaining locked up, even if she had a new male companion. John didn't know it yet, but she would soon be free of her prison. They all would.
