"As I heard, Wolffang, you are an infamous burglar." Dame Athanasia smirked, showing a pair of needle-like fangs. "I need someone with the talents of a burglar. And as I heard, you need some money. I suppose, we may help each other. What do you think?"
Wolffang nervously looked at Dame Athanasia's companions - two fancy girls. A witch and a werewolf. She trembled a bit, but just made a big gulp and nodded. She really needed money. Terrible needed. And she really felt fluttered, when nobody else, but Dame Athanasia herself suggest her a deal. "I'm at your service, milady!".
Livonna, the werewolf, and Kajira, the witch, looked at each other, and she-werewolf chuckled. She didn't like, how easily Wolffang agreed to join their team and was even less happy about how flattering her mistress, Dame Athanasia, was, convincing the orcess to cooperate.
"Let's drink for the success!" said Kajira, raising her mug. Wolffang quickly clinked her mug to witch's. Livonna joined them, still unsure if she is happy or not, that their team got a newbie.
"So, what exactly do you need me for?" asked Wolffang.
"I need to get a map from the dwarves," Dame Athanasia replied. "As I know, it is keeping at their outpost near this town by the dwarven chieftain named Krang. So, I need you to picklock his parlor and get it for me. And then, if you would do this job right, maybe I will even hire you on an ongoing basis." she winked.
Wolffang smiled widely, "Oh, you can rely on me, milady!"
Soon all four young women went out from the tavern. Dame Athanasia stood in front of her carriage and turned to her companions.
"So, we need to get to the outpost before midnight. Turn into the wolf! Quickly!"
Livonna growled. She hated, when Dame Athanasia forced her to turn into her whole wolf-form just to use her as a sled dog or a riding horse. That was just humiliating! And, of course, she had now wish to be that humiliated in front of their new burglar.
"Do you want me to whip all this stupid pride out of you here and now?" asked the vampiress in intimidating voice, "Just turn into the wolf, and lets go! Or I'll make you an example of what happens to those, who dare to talking back to me!"
Livonna growled louder, but resignedly stood on all fours and howled out loud, when her body started completing the change. Few seconds later she turned into a large grey wolf. Vampiress smiled contentedly and harnessed her in the carriage. "Take your sits, ladies!" she commanded to the witch and the orcess, "Here we go! Wolffang, you'll be the coachwoman!"
"With a great pleasure, milady!" Wolffang answered, taking the whip. She really wanted to show her new employer, how loyal and painstaking she could be. And for Livonna it became a literal pain and mostly in her ass right from the start. The orcess was whipping the poor she-werewolf mercilessly all the way to outpost, being sure, that that would make her run as fast, as she could, and in the same time show Dame Athanasia all her diligence.
"Maybe we should ask her to be more gentle to Livonna?" Kajira whispered to Dame Athanasia, "Don't get me wrong, but all this howl can reveal us!"
"There are enough wolves in these woods. What is so strange if one of them would howl a bit more than usual?" vampiress shrugged. "And Livonna is used to this anyway!"
Finally the carriage stopped not so far from the outpost. Dame Athanasia ordered Wolffang to unharness Livonna and turned to Kajira.
"Now hide my carriage with your magic. It better to be here, when we will return with the map," she smiled, "I don't like... Oh, Darkness, what's going on?!"
The witch and the vampiress looked at each other, hearing a loud swearing. "Greenskin bitch! That whip was just to show your status, nothing more!", "Oh, really? The only bitch here is you! You're a mongrel after all! And as a coachwoman I had the right to whip you, to make you move that fat furry ass of yours faster! And now shut up, or I'll give you some more lashing!" "Bitch! I'm gonna cut your heart out with a spoon!" The witch and the vampiress turned around and saw, how the orcess and she-werewolf, who returned to her usual half-human half-beast form and now rubbed the whiplash welts on her plump bottom, angrily stared at each other, almost ready to start a fight. "Shut up you two! What the Darkness is going on here?!" Dame Athanasia shouted. The girls turned to her, still angrily gazing at each other. "This thieving bitch whooped me so bad! There was no reason to strike me so much and so hard! Now I am tired and all in pain!" Livonna complained, pointing at Wolffang. "She was running so slow, that I had no other choice, but give her few strokes with the whip just to encourage!" Wolffang replied. Dame Athanasia shook her head. "Bend over this roadside fence, now!" she shouted. Scared girls mumbled and bent over.
Few seconds later a loud swishing of a riding crop and a girlish screaming could be heard far away around. "You two better to keep in mind, that I will not tolerate any misbehaviour, when it comes to my plans! Your stupid rivalry can wait, until we will get the map! Am I making myself clear?" Dame Athanasia spoken in stern voice giving her companions's upturned bottoms a stinging stroke of the crop at each word. She didn't stopped, until they both started weeping bitterly, apologising, begging for mercy and promising, that they won't start any arguing again. Satisfied, the vampiress threw the crop into the carriage and turned to the witch, who was still gazing at their now very sore and sorry companions. She-werewolf and orcess rubbed their now very sore bottoms, angrily looking at each other, but too scared of another punishment to continue their quarrel. It was quite obvious, that each of them is pretty sure, that it is her opponent's fault, that they got this whipping.
In the dark of the night four girls sneaked up to the dwarven outpost and stood under the high wall. Dame Athanasia turned to her companions. "Now let's split. Kajira, you would climb on the wall with me. We will watch, if someone would patrolling the courtyard. And you two," she nodded to Livonna and Wolffang, "You will get into the parlor and get the map! Hurry!"
All the girls took each other by the hand and Kajira whispered a spell. Suddenly they just got off the ground and levitated at the top of the wall. Livonna and Wolffang nimbly got down onto the courtyard, while Kajira and Athansia stayed.
Livonna and Wolffang looked at each other angrily. "Don't even dare to think, that you can just overstep me!" she-werewolf growled, "One wrong move, and I'll familiarize you with my claws and teeth much closely, than you would ever wish!". Orcess nodded. She really wanted to impress her new employer, so she wasn't happy about her wolfish partner at all. Especially after the spanking she received because of her. And now this hairy beast could ruin all her performance! She couldn't let it happen. And while Livonna was sniffing the air and looking around for guards and shadows, Wolffang was looking for any trap she could kick her partner in crime into. And finally she noticed one. So she pushed the button and quickly stepped into shadows, while unsuspecting Livonna was crawling near the wall to the nearest door.
Suddenly the loud tocsin thundered over the outpost, and right from the ground a tall metal figure appeared. The automaton - tireless and relentless dwarven guardian. An enchanted mechanism. It detect the she-werewolf quickly and figured out a solution even quicker. Wolffang hurried to climb back over the wall, watching, how the metal guardian caught Livonna by her bushy tail and raised her rear end high in the air, while raising a whip by it's other hand. The she-werewolf howled in fear and struggled, but all was useless. Powerful machine easily kept her in position. The first crack of the whip blowed over the outpost, and the wolfish howl became much more moanful.
The dwarves quickly appeared from the casern and stood up, looking, how their mechanical guard was dealing with the intruder. Livonna was squirming and howling, wagging her plump buttocks, which were turning more and more red and sore under the strokes of the whip. She could not escape, she was trapped. Dame Athanasia, Kajira and Wolffang hided in shadows over the wall, watching their companion's terrible fate. And the dwarves were just enjoying the unexpected show, not noticing the girls on the wall.
"Very impressive!" said a mighty dwarf in armour with a chieftain regalia, "These automatons really are just perfect guardians! I suppose we don't need to interrupt this!" he laughed and then turned to his adjutant, "Well, since we got an intruder here, I suppose I'd better to bring the map to the more safer place. To the city, I think. Get my carriage ready in the morning! We're leaving at the dawn!". "Should I command our Best soldiers to prepare to marsh?" the adjutant asked. "No way! The guarded carriage would look much more suspicious. It would be just like we're saying 'Dear bandits, here is something valuable! Would you like to come and check it?'. No. Just me and you, my boy."
He had no idea, that three pair of a very sharp ears were catching every his word. Dame Athanasia smirked. "Well, this will be even better! We will just rob this priggish dwarf right in his travel! Alright, girls, let's get out of here!". "And what about Livonna?" Kajira asked carefully. "We can't help without being noticed anyway," the vampiress shrugged, "Let's hope, she'll get away and join us later." "Yes! After all, this is her own fault, that she got in such a position!" Wolffang nodded. Kajira gave her a look full of suspicion, but said nothing. The girls were preparing to levitate down, when the skirt of the witch's mantle suddenly stuck between the bricks. "Oh, Darkness! Not now!" the witch cursed, trying to free her clothes. Probably she said that a bit too loud, or stand out from the shadows for a second, but the automaton surely noticed the intruders over the wall. It couldn't do anything to catch them or warn the dwarves about them without scaring them away, so it choose the simplest decision. And automaton just spun poor howling Livonna like a throwing hammer and threw her right into her partners in crime, striking them all from the wall.
Screaming, the girls fell right into the river, and before they could come to their senses, the rough river carried them away.
Far away from the outpost, where the river slowly became wider and gentler, the girls, all soaking wet and deadly exhausted, finally could get to the shoal.
"Ugh! My beautiful dress!" Wolffang lamented, "And all because of this clumsy stupid mutt!" she looked at Dame Athanasia, being almost sure, that the vampiress will allow her to punish her rival. "Because of me?!" Livonna wept, "It was you, wasn't it? You activated that damned machine!" she growled. Dame Athanasia, who was even more angry, but too tired to punish anyone, just shouted: "Shut up you two! You both screwed up and now we are in the middle of nowhere, wet, hungry and with empty pockets! If you will continue this stupid arguing, Kajira would sent your stupid asses on fire literally! Kajira, dear, would you?" the vampiress looked at the witch. Kajira, who lost her mantle, but somehow kept her hat just nodded. She also was too exhausted to use any powerful magic, but she was pretty sure, that her partners in crime couldn't knew that. And Livonna and Wolffang gasped in fear, shutting their mouths.
It were still few hours before the dawn, so the girls just set up a camp right at the river side. They build a fire and hung their clother over a tree branch to dry them out. Livonna just lied down on the grass, sobbing and weeping. Her bottom was dark red and badly welted after the whopping she got from the automaton. Her partners in crime sat near her. Dame Athanasia looked at her companions.
"Well, I didn't got the map, but all is not lost yet!" she said, "As we know, the dwarven chieftain would make a travel to a dwarven city nearby. Without any guards. A perfect victim! I'm recognizing this part of the river, so I know, where we are!" she gave weeping Livonna an annoyed gaze, "Stop sobbing! How dare you to interrapt me! Kajira, please, do something to make this she-wolf shut up!" Kajira nodded and took a bowl of a river water. She whispered a spell and pour it out over Livonna's terrible sore buttocks. "I was never good in healing magic, and now I'm surely not in my best shape, but this should help even a little bit," she whispered to she-werewolf.
And while the witch was trying to relieve the she-werewolf's suffering, the vampiress continued the explanation of her new plan. "There is an inn not so far away. The most important thing is that it is the only inn for a miles around. Krang would have no choice, but stop there to have a rest! And there we will get him and the map! Damned! Livonna, if you won't stop these annoying moanings, I surely will give you a good switching!"
