She was holding me in an embrace, her naked body pressed against mine, I was barely able to think straight, was I really gonna do it? why shouldn't I? However I never got to to know the answers, just when she was trying to make me lay in her makeshift nest I heard a loud thump and a male voice calling for her.
"Ysa! What are you doing?!" said and we both turned around.
Before us there was a big guy, young looking with long red straight hair an wrestler build, and of course a set of wings like those of Ysa, which just then I learnt her name.
"Gou?"
"What's the meaning of this, you are supposed to be my cycle mate? What are you doing with that moron?" asked the big guy.
"Gou, where's your honor? This is a brave Mutilated and he has chosen me to bear his progeny. You know I couldn't refuse."
"A mutilated? THIS Wimp?" I should have been insulted, but comparing our bodies, and me being naked and quite aroused at the moment didn't really helped my case. "Look at him! There's no way he's mutilated, let alone a warrior. He must be a coward."
"A coward?"
"Or worse, a pretender so he can find a mate. I bet that's what he is!" Ysa stepped away from me, and the Gou was coming right at me.
And just like that I was busted, sure that wasn't really my intention but I was apparently was going to.
<Info: I just accessed the Local database, pretending to be a mutilated is punishable by death, normally by being push out of a tree. You have one option, say you want a Trial, say it quickly!>
That was what Unit recommended, it's just by then he had me by the throat. "I-I... want... a... a tri-al" I struggle to say and he dropped me on the floor.
"A trial? What an honorable thing for such a disgusting person, very well, I shall honor your dying wish." He then grabbed me by the torso and jumped off the tree, he flew around until he let me go a few feet on the forest floor. "I was going to give you a quick punishment, but I see you are too coward for that!" and with that he flew away.
"What did he meant by that?"
<The Trial, is a form of execution of this society, basically a wing-less is left on the floor, where he's easy prey for all sort of predators, if he can make it back to the safety of the top branches it's crimes are forgiven, however the success rate of the Trial is as far as the local database know null>
"What? What have you gotten me into? I was almost eaten by a lizard before you know! And wait what database?"
<I believe it's name was Ysa.>
"You read her mind? How?"
<I can access the database of anyone you touch or if there's a remote connection, although that implies a society a bit more technologically developed.>
"Well, that's good but I'm still lizard bait here."
<Follow my instructions>
I did I walked what seemed like hours, my tender feet hurt on the rough terrain. Until I reached where Unit was taking me... back at my suit.
"You made me trek all the way here for the clothes? I thought you were directing me to a shelter or something."
<I told you the clothes are highly recommended, and beside shelter is pointless, you will have built up enough energy for a jump in 5.32 minutes>
I decided to put on the stretch suit, which was way harder than taking it off. Once I had it on, I heard something approaching, it was the lizard from before.
"How long until that jump?"
<The lizard will be here before it, I suggest you use the suit. Let me configure it.>
Just then I felt the clothes fabric retract into a loincloth like the one Ysa lent me, but also I felt it crawl under my skin on to my back and spread out like the wings of the people in this dimensioon. Before I knew it I was flying away from danger.
"Wait that mean I could have always had wings?"
<I told you the clothes are highly recommended. As well as landing and retracting them before a jump in case winged humans are not the norm>
Soon the familiar light enveloped me and I was whisked away to another dimension.
