A magical feline, a curiosity for knowledge that results in disastrous results for herself.


Academ's Turmoil

Through grand halls with sunshine spilling through, the sound of pattering feet upon wooden floors could be heard along with the shuffle of robes as various students, faculty members, teachers and more walked about their day. Most all of those individuals were calm with their business, chattering among each other occasionally, but nothing too exciting as the morning sun was just setting in the sky. All were calm, except for a single frantic dot among the crowd. A feline with dark plum tinted fur ran among, through and around the various taller folk that were around, her eyes were determined and the color of amber, and her arms clutched a large tome with a great symbol of magic upon the cover. She made her way without much trouble through the winding crowd, and many ignored her as they already knew who she was: Mara. She had recently gained apprenticeship; from a mere novice, from a mere entrant within the academy and she desired only to keep going forth with her studies. She had no time to be padding through the halls at a snail's pace. Even if she had just become an apprentice yesterday, she was ready to take it to the next level and learn as much as she could to advance into a journeymen. Already she was eager to learn so much of what she had been studying in secret, the more powerful magics, mastery of the elements, and even an understanding of the darker arts; of course, she had always been warned not to go too far into her studies and be patient, but what was the fun in that? She loved magic, loved the power, the thrill it gave upon using, the way her emotions dictated the ebb and flow of the world around her, and she so desired to master it! She wouldn't be left behind in the dust while other's bettered themselves, however, when she arrived before the door of her class, standing just outside was an old grey furred rat with blue eyes she recognized as her mentor and teacher, Master Ridel. With paw out he called to her, "Mara dear, didn't you pass apprenticeship yesterday? Why don't you take the day off, without studying so much. Rest is important for practitioners of the art as well dear."

Mara blurted immediately, "Excuse me? Classes are in session today sir," She then gave a quick curtsy, remembering her manners, "S-so if you'll excuse me." Pretending not to hear him she tried to step past the old rat and into the classroom, but a paw upon her head stopped her, old claws ruffling through her fur carefully.

"Take the day off Mara, or at least relax at the library with a good book, I've canceled your classes for the day as your patron." The old rat said with a chuckle.

Mara's eyes widened for a bit before she took a step back, gripping tight to the book she held in her arms and responding with a sigh, ears drooping, "Fine, but at night I'll have my own lessons."

With a huff and a turn of the tail the feline was off as quickly as she had arrived, the old rat left there to rub at the back of his ears, "That'll be a problem won't it, better warn the headmaster."

Mara entered the library with a low hiss, her paw pushing apart the double doors abruptly as she marched on in trying to clear her head, and trying to figure out what was going through the head of that old mentor of hers. Certainly he couldn't be thinking that a day without study would be such a good thing for her. It troubled her to no end to be without practice for one single day, especially since there were so many other apprentices wiser and more powerful than she was. She needed to catch up, needed to better herself, or perhaps there was some wisdom to what the old man was saying.

Even as she found herself among the soft pale red carpets of the library where wisp light hung from the ceiling she could feel a sort of pressure upon her head. Many nights without sleep had left her ragged at times, but she had been so determined in her study and practice that her mentality had always been to ignore rest in favor of improvement. With a sigh she stalked into the various halls made of bookcases, eyes searching for something, anything new to read, or at the very least something to calm her nerves. Maybe a fun little adventure story, maybe something to relax with as her mentor had suggested, but her eyes continued to gravitate towards books of magic, anything that would allow her to learn more and continue her art, but as she looked closely upon each book, Mara realized that she had already read those same books many times. In fact, she wasn't sure if there wasn't a single book among this section of the library that she hadn't completed. Even among the other bookcases there were subjects that were far too simple, or simply ones that she had already rehearsed again and again. Perhaps she would go over the more difficult books if only she was allowed to practice, but at the entrance to the library just above the double doors the sign planted upon it was clear, 'Read Here, Practice Out There,' so what if one student had nearly burned down the library, that didn't mean that everyone else needed to abide by a punishment set for one single student. Regardless, she would have to make do with simply reading these books again, or...She looked around the corner of the bookcase she was at, her eyes narrowed as she searched for the librarian. Nowhere to be seen, and as for the students, there weren't any. All the students were in class and with the librarian as a no show, it meant that the lower levels of the library were unguarded.

Mara took her journal in paw and with a small smile began walking around the various bookcases, tail flicking from side to side, searching just in case someone was watching her as she made her way to the far side of the library where a small wall opened to stone stairs leading down into door with a lantern hung above it. The sign upon the door read clearly, 'Student Access Limited.'

Well, Mara was a student indeed, and access could be limited to her, but she was a fresh apprentice, and though she knew she was explicitly not allowed to enter even as an apprentice, she made her way down the steps with a big fang filled grin, excitement taking over exhaustion as she carefully made her way down each step, occasionally checking her back until she reached the door. Carefully she took hold of the handle of the door letting out a little sneeze as the dust came flying off of the wooden frame before opening it quickly and slipping inside, shutting it just as fast, slowing down at the last second to ease it into place.

With her infiltration complete she turned to face her new environment. Pedestal upon pedestal lined a large room with wooden display's upon them, glass covering the tops. Very clearly from where she stood at the top of more steps, Mara could see that each contained a book, no, they contained tomes, large and magnificent tomes. If she squinted her eyes within the wisp light she could see that the pages were yellow with age, a perfect tint in her eyes. Hidden down here it had to mean that those books contained something worthwhile, but at the forefront of her attention was a large tome that was simply out upon a stone pedestal, no glass case covering it, just a simple green tome with various symbols and runes upon it. Curiosity took her as she descended the steps, the pitter patter of her feet upon the stone floors echoing into the relatively empty room.

Nearly just before her nose was nearing the airspace of the book she stopped just in time as a seal locked in place, her eyes wide as she saw a rather violent assortment of fiery symbols draw themselves before her with a crackle, all familiar. If she were to have taken a step into that she would have burned off more than a whisker, and certainly lost more than just that. Gulping she took a step back and eyed the great mass of weaved runes before getting upon her knees, opening her journal upon the ground to flip the pages. She knew she could undo this seal with a little time, she had seen those symbols before, and if Mara could undo what a master had done, what perhaps the headmaster of the school had done! Then what an achievement that would be! Without another thought, she began searching through the pages of her journal with furious determination, a big smile upon her lips as she prepared to undo the spell before her.

The layer of runes and symbols floating before her became more clear as she flipped through her journal, touching a digit to the pages as she found the exact spell to create the various pieces of the seal. She remembered all of the things she had been taught of seals and magic symbols, of traps and more, and everything was in her journal neatly written and prepared for her eyes. Mara could look down from her journal and back to the seal and see exactly what she needed to pull it apart by the seams. Carefully of course, carefully. If she weren't careful then she would find herself tripping the fiery thing and engulfed in an inferno if she read the symbols correctly, of course she could be reading it incorrectly and finding herself in a whole different situation, but it wasn't the time to think about that.

Taking a calming breath she stood and reached out with both paw and mind, a stream of orange light connecting to the massive circle weaved of magic and runes. She could feel the power behind it, the immense and violent storm that swirled within, along with that she felt the heat coursing through her body already; a certain tell of things to come if she failed. There she stood against that massive seal, her eyes shut as she steadied herself shuddering against the magic she felt rushing through her as she began to pull and tug at the various strings in the spell. Occasionally she had to slow her pace, bolts of fire dancing along the floor with little mistakes that cost her a bit of pain and a bit of singed fur upon her paws, but nothing dangerous or substantial, she could continue eating through what little pain she felt. Soon enough the spell began to fall over on itself, her paws working diligently, weaving about to undo what had been done.

Mara was not sure how long it had been, but she found herself breaking apart the spell faster and faster, with more precision and less mistakes until the runes were gone and only the circle was left which soon broke apart without anything to hold it together. As she marveled at her work she felt exhaustion hit her as her paws slumped to her sides, her head pounding for a moment until she shook herself of that momentary lapse of energy. She'd have to take her mentor's advice and sleep the rest of the day away after she saw what exactly the book contained.

Stepping to the pedestal she felt a rekindled excitement at not only having defeating the spell, but at finally being able to get her paws on the tome that not even a glass case covered. Gingerly she leaned up to touch the tome, taking it from the pedestal to hold it before her as she smiled, slowly opening the page only to drop it and fall upon her rear as the green covered tome sprung open with a great force. Mara's eyes were wide now as she saw the pages flipping rapidly, a great mass of black and red that spilled forth along with a coat of white that spiraled around it and crashed directly in front of her.

A shadowy figure rose with dark fur and red eyes, it was hunched over and appeared as a canine, almost like a Lupin except with stretched limbs and a muzzle that opened to show shadowy fangs. Around the creature spectral energy flowed around, spirits flowing around from the beast, and as it lumbered forward it breathed out, "Freedom...It tastes bitter, my throat is dry, my body is parched...My spirit weak, who though? Who has set me free?" The creature's eyes scanned the room until it spotted a small feline in robes, her rear planted upon the floor, her little amber eyes wide as she stared upon his form. As he examined her, he found the barest sparks of magic within her, such a weak thing, and yet he noticed that his seal was broken and no one else but this little female cat was to be seen. Had this been the one to break the seal upon his prison? If so that would make her a powerful little font of magic, a wonderful little source he could abuse and use, to drain her and have his fun with, especially since he hungered so much from his time within that damnable prison.

Mara's eyes were still wide with fright and her body frozen with it. Scrambling upon her feet she grabbed her journal and turned tail to run, she needed to find someone, she couldn't handle this thing on her own, especially after feeling that immense pressure, but she couldn't escape. The creature melted into the shadows and appeared directly in front of her blocking her escape, her tail standing upon end as she backed away from the creature standing before her escape. Step by step she tried to move away, but to where she escape she had no clue. At this point Mara could not even fight, anytime she tried to summon any amount of power, her head burned, her vision blurring for a moment. Practicing and going about her studies so vigorously had left her with only enough power to take down that seal, and even then that had been a drain on her resources.

With her ears drooping the canine beast stepped in close, maw open wide as it reached to grab upon her cheek in a surprisingly gentle touch. The demon breathed out in an almost overjoyed and ginger tone that betrayed its appearance, "What a sweet thing. Even if you did not mean to release me, I must thank you. Being in that prison alone for so long, what a hell that was. Would you accept a boon from me?"

Mara stared with wide eyes still, unsure of what really to say at such a thing, surely he must think her stupid if she were to accept such a thing. She understood perfectly fine that he was a demon, or at the very least something very foul to be trapped within that book, and though the touch upon her cheek was soft, she felt nothing but a cold sensation creeping up her spines as the spectral energy around his paw traveled around her, the room suddenly growing more frigid as she spoke in a shudder, "I...I have nothing that I desire from you. I'm perfectly fine without anything thank you."

The demon only grinned, showing off those shadowy fangs, eyes focused on the apprentice mage as he continued on, "Please, don't be so frightened. You freed me, and to do that you must have wasted plenty of energy, you're but a spark of life now, but my, what a font of magic you must be to have been able to tear down the gate keeping me from being here. Little one, won't you at least let me restore your vigor, we could be strong together, and it could be pleasant."

Mara still backed away, her eyes defiant as she spoke, her stance ready to fight even though she knew she had nothing to throw at the beast before her. The shadows surrounded her, the creature before her rising, as he spoke, his eyes flashing, "Acceptance or not, you will yield to me in time, and we will be powerful...A feline's body should be fine enough to inhabit while I regain my power, but do not worry, I will reward you."

His honeyed tone compared to what he actually meant only served to further unnerve her, but she had nowhere to back away anymore, the shadows that surrounded her wouldn't allow it. Tendrils from the shadows rose to grip at her surrounded by that spectral energy, that life force that seemed so strangely cold and she yelped as her arms were restrained at the wrist, the canine demon's form approaching with those glowing eyes staring down at her. She shivered as the tendrils upon her arms coiled through the sleeves of her robes to grip through her fur and over her skin. It felt far too strange, but as she tried to struggle she realized truly how exhausted she was. Mara barely had the strength to stand, let alone struggle against the tendrils holding upon her arms, coiling closer and closer to her shoulders and down her chest, causing her to shiver and shake as she mewled out in protest.

With a wave of the hand the demon chuckled the tendrils worming within her clothing tearing her robes apart revealing her plump body, black panties and her legs covered by black and white striped long open toed socks. With a yelp and a hiss she covered her body, her cheeks flushed beyond reason, her ears drawn back and her tail coiled around her hips as she tried again to back away from the oncoming demon, but yet again those tendrils moved to stop her, this time grabbing at her ankles, coiling around her legs to force her upon her knees, shadowy tentacles keeping her head in place as she saw the demon's red canine cock sprout free, long and thick, her eyes widening as she realized what exactly the demon desired of her.

As the demon brought his cock against her cheek, she couldn't help but feel the blood rush to her cheeks, her eyes wide as she felt the demon's touch upon her other cheek, "Not even a virgin...Young and yet not so innocent, who took it I wonder?"

Mara squeaked, "That is none of your business! How do you even know this?"

The demon simply chuckled at her dismay and brought his cock to her lips, while more of those shadowy tendrils found their way through the sides of her panties to pull and tug until they were torn away as well, a tentacle pressing and pushing against her pussy causing her to shudder as the demon replied, "I feel it on you as I have you here in my embrace, of course there is only so much I can find out, so let me in, make this pleasant and don't struggle too much."

Mara thought to bite upon the member poking at her lips, but she felt those tendrils upon her legs and arms tighten, her eyes wincing before her ears drooped, her mouth opening to allow that demon's cock to brush against her tongue, and as promised the creature was gentle. Those tendrils softened their grip upon her, and even the one at her cunt seemed to treat her well, twisting and pushing against her folds while the demon at her mouth brought his canine cock deeper and deeper into her maw. It was true that she was no virgin, that her supposed purity was gone, but it had been a clumsy first and a singular time, no more and so she had no experience. She could only close her eyes and shiver like a leaf as the demon worked himself against her tongue, his heated member striking a strange contrast to the frigid cold surrounding her, that cold which brought her closer to the demon's cock, her head pushing forward for that warmth. The demon seemed to lavish in this, his tongue lolling out as he pushed further and further into her little feline maw until his knot was kissing at her nose. Mara gagged just a bit at this point, and was surprised to find that the demon pulled away, her ears perking and her eyes looking up at the shadowy canine form. His own red orbs stared down at her, but he only grinned, his thumb stroking at her cheek as he rocked his hips back and forth against her mouth, cock pushing gently against her tongue again and again.

Mara shivered again, pressing herself closer to the warmth that the demon provided, at the very least the demon provided some sort of comfort. The more she thought about the demon's comfort and what he could do for her, the more she felt at ease, that warmth from the demon's cock radiating within her. She shuddered then from the change in temperature, her body sagging and her lips purring around that cock as she began bobbing herself back and forth, just as her master desired. That was when her eyes opened wide and the warmth suddenly turned into a chilling freeze, even that cock that had seemed so warm turned cold. She pulled her maw away only to have a strong claw upon the back of her head hold her in place, the demon slowly pushing into her mouth again as he spoke in a low growl, "Smart girl...Your mind is your own for now, but you will submit eventually."

Mara looked up with defiant eyes, even as she gagged around that thick thing in her mouth, even as he thrust to her, and even as a tendril found its way inside of her cunt to stretch her wide, she would not give into this demon, no matter how exhausted she was, she would not allow him to take her body for free, even if she had to burn the last source of her power she would resist. The demon merely sneered down at the feline's defiance and continued to push into her maw, a great pressure building within his loins as he began to thrust and pound away at her lips, ignoring her little muffled hisses and gags of protest as he brought himself closer and closer with every push.

At the same time, those writhing tendrils brought themselves deeper inside of the girl, no longer kind, no longer soft as they pushed and twisted inside of her. Mara wincing and shuddering as the cold around her gripped upon her body tightly, the warmth she felt from within betraying how she truly felt, her mouth sore from the rutting she had been taking, but even as the demon spilled his seed, that warmth stuff coating her tongue and throat in a practical tidal wave, she continued to look up at the demon with defiant amber eyes that seemed to glimmer in the darkness, and even as she was forced to swallow she let out a muffled hiss. When the demon finally pulled from her lips he gripped at her chin with a frown, that sneer and grin wiped from his muzzle as he growled, "Defiant...Even a taste of that warmth will not have you in my grasp hm? It seems that I must break you to have you."

Mara spat upon his cheek with some of his own seed, marking a white blotch upon his fur, "Burn bastard. You can never have me, only my shattered husk, and what good will I be then? Even then, what can your little limp thing do to me? You need all your magic to even just influence my mind, you think I'm afraid of that? You're just as drained as I am."

Those sharp amber eyes stared the demon down, the demon who growled and snarled at such insolence. It could have been much more pleasant if she simply kept her mouth shut, and yet the part that burned the most was that she was right. However long he had been in that prison had left him without a great amount of his typical power, but that would change once he found himself a suitable host, and unfortunately it seemed as if this girl wasn't going to be that host as her will was far too strong, and yet again she was right! If he broke her he would have nothing but a husk to enter, a husk that would never regain its power. At the very least he would feast upon what little energy she had left and satisfy his desires with her body. Without a word given, he pulled the tendrils from her firmly, causing her to gasp out, his claws grasping upon her sides to bring her up, the tip of his cock resting upon her entrance, ready to split her warm folds apart, and yet still she did not yield nor even struggle. She only stared at him with such insolence! He couldn't stand that stare, and so rather than be gentle, he pressed into her firmly, grunting as he felt her tight folds squeeze around his cock, that warmth flowing through his body.

Mara gasped out and shuddered at the sudden penetration, but kept her gaze the same, her body gaining warmth from the strange mixture of pain and pleasure that forced itself upon her, but along with that she focused on the emotion, the intensity of her own hatred of the creature forcing himself upon her. The demon had already shown that he was just as weak as she was, he had proven it by not answering it, and if she focused she could see that his reserves were just as low. Even if he was at full power she would have fought to the bitter end, but seeing that the once imprisoned creature was weakened by time gave her the hope she needed. She could bide her time, and drain him instead.

The demon was furious with the girl before him, his thrust driving his cock inside of her again and again, and even though his cock pounded and stretched her wide, the feline simply grunted and gasped, staring at him with those defiant eyes, not giving him the satisfaction as he continued to try and pound away at her will through sheer force. The demon didn't even notice the drain upon his magic, the way that the cold air began to gather around the girl rather than grip upon her. No, instead of looking closely the demon fell into a deep rage, roaring aloud and pounding inside of her firmly, his knot kissing at her entrance with each thrust which caused her to moan, her toes and digits curling.

Mara's body betrayed her there, the rough treatment bringing about a certain heat and pleasure to her form that she could not resist, but rather than find disgust in it, she relished in it, using it to her advantage, her gaze still defiant though her ears were drawn back as she hissed out, "Weak, you think you could have even made this pleasant for me with such a pathetic rhythm? Look at you, you couldn't even break out of a little book that a tiny feline could break the seal on, how pathe--." She gasped and yowled out suddenly as she felt the demon knot her, his snarl growing louder, his anger pouring through her, again without his notice his energetic thrusts giving her something to use, something to hold onto, and so she bore with it, bore that knot stretching her wide and forcing itself inside of her with a wet pop, and though she winced, her other eye was focused upon his mug in defiance.

The demon could feel himself growing close, his loin burning again, the shadows around them writhing as he thrust himself again and again against the girl, not caring what happened to her, not caring what happened to himself. The insolent little feline would suffer for what she did, this would just be the first of it, the first of her entrapment, he desired nothing more than to see her suffer now, but still even as he knotted himself inside of her she still looked upon him with those defiant eyes that brought him to a rage. It could have been so simple, so easy if she would have just accepted, and yet here they were! With a howl he yanked himself from her causing her to squeal out, her eyes suddenly opening wide as the entirety of his cock was yanked out, hot cum splashing over her body and fur, Mara's eyes shutting as she felt that warm seed hit her body, surprised at the sudden pulling out.

There the demon set the feline to the ground, not caring about the fact that he stained her plum furred body, instead he stared at her curved form and enjoyed his conquest, his rage finally subsiding, his chest rising and falling as he leaned down to whisper, "I heard a moan from you little one. Did you cum? Did you enjoy that so called weakness? Because I have plenty more of that."

Mara laid there for a moment, basking in the warmth of the cum, letting out a purr of triumph as she felt a bit of life and energy circulate through her body, her eyes opening as she sat up with a wide grin, "Really? Because you look pretty limp to me."

Again the demon snarled, but this time his maw closed and his eyes widened as he watched the girl bring her paw up, in her other paw her journal and tome. A circle formed at his feet and before he had the chance to restrain the girl, an inferno of hellish fire rose from it, anger, rage, cold and more pouring through those flames, everything that he had been expressing towards the girl thrown back at him in such a powerful manner. He had underestimated the feline, but he was not dead! Even after the flames had engulfed him and he had faded back to the corner of the room he snarled and held onto his burnt face, one glowing eye staring at the feline who huffed and puffed upon the floor, her paw still pointing at him as if she had another charge ready, but as he tried to move he felt his body suddenly chained and pulled towards the entrance of the room. With a howl he clawed at the floor, just as his body was absorbed into the pages of a new hellish prison his eyes catching the sight of the defiant feline grinning from ear to ear, her eyes still ever defiant!

Mara let out a sigh, slumping upon the floor as she saw both her savior, and her demise. There stood the headmaster with a black tome in one paw, and a great oak staff in the other. The silver furred Lupin with long ears and tired eyes stepped into the room with a deep sigh, a sigh that echoed out as he made his way to her step by step. When he finally arrived he shook his head, "Mara...Master Ridel told me you would be in some form of trouble, I just never expected you to go this far...Impressive that you broke the librarian's seal and fought back the demon after being so weak from all your overly zealous studying."

Her ears perked up and she responded happily, "Thank you si--."

She yelped as her head was struck by the wooden staff the old Lupin barking, "That wasn't a compliment you little fire starter. You're literally covered in demon gunk in a forbidden area for students and you think you'll be getting off with a few compliments, no...But I know you, Ridel knows you too. If we throw you out of the school, you'll most likely find yourself with something worse than a lich, or you'll become something worse than that and if I demote you to a novice you'll just work even harder and kill yourself like that. So instead." He raised his staff and a circle closed over her wrists, "No magic. For a week. You're on vacation."

Mara's eyes widened as she brought herself up to her feet still covered in cum, "What?! No magic! Sir that isn't fair I...I o-oh..." She fell upon her knees as she felt her exhaustion come over her.

With a sympathetic gaze the headmaster tapped her head lightly with the tome, "You must rest this head of yours so you can think clearly. No magic for a week, take a break, go to town, visit your family if you must. Rest. You're perhaps more powerful than any apprentice in your class, just a little too ambitious. Now come...We'll get you clean and into something more...Ahem...Appropriate."

Cheeks flustered, Mara sighed and got up, her tail covering coiling around her hips as the headmaster walked through a portal that appeared before him, his staff beckoning her before he disappeared into it. With a grunt she followed along, her head pounding. For all the trouble, it had not been worth it to unearth a demon and get herself into a week of no magic, but maybe a lesson would be learned from all of this. Worst of all, she had enjoyed her little fight with the demon, the memory of his cock literally staining her body. At the very least she had been complimented by the headmaster, and perhaps a few days in town without magic might be nice. A week off of studies, a vacation at that, what a hellish punishment.
