It all started as a day like any other in the sprawling megacity, people went to work, shopping, and to anywhere else they needed to go as the buses and magtrains took them to their respective destinations. People toiled away at their jobs, went out for lunch, watched what was happening on the holovids, and thought about what they would do when night came. Nobody suspected that when night came none of their plans would come to fruition; for the millions of creatures that lived, worked, and played in that city they were completely unaware of the force that had been slowly gaining in power until it had reached critical mass. It was on that day that for all those in the city their world was completely turned upside down.

It was the invasion of the Sabredrones.

By the time people figured out what was going on it was like a cascading nuclear reaction as those who got changed quickly would find others to do the same and so on. The Sabredrones had also taken their time and planned out their invasion very carefully, finding high-density areas where a few of them would start converting others, and then release them into the crowds in order to continue the process. There were some that managed to evacuate but eventually the quarantine order was put into effect and the entire city went into a state of lockdown. That's how it remained; any attempts at contact with those inside were met with nothing but static that made people fear the worst.

No one had gone into the megacity in weeks, save for a few brave souls from the military that never returned, but finally a transmission came out from there that informed those on the outside that the one in charge would like to speak with an independent news crew to show what conditions were like inside the dome. It was likely prompted by the threat that they were going to just drop a neutron bomb and call it a day, and though that option was still on the table there were too many unanswered questions to level the megacity while the threat was still contained. Though there was a slight problem in finding a crew that was willing to do such a thing, even with the guarantee from the one that called himself the Sabredrone Overlord that no harm would come to them, eventually an APC carrying a film crew and reporter were on the main highway heading into the megacity.

"Someone tell me again why we're doing this?" the vulpine reporter said as she looked at herself in the mirror while primping herself.

"Breaking a story about the events that caused the mutation of millions of people in the space of like three days will probably nab you another award for your wall," the ocelot replied as he filled with the camera, the bull with the boom mike next to him nodding in agreement. "Plus if I overheard correctly the boss man was going to put you in a corner office for doing this one."

"If I get out of there alive," she replied before looking over at the alligator that was serving as their military liaison for the trip. "How people have you sent in there that actually made it back to report? Huh? I'm guessing I wouldn't need all my fingers to count them up?"

The alligator man just continued to check his equipment while they waited for the automated vehicle to drop them off. Though they all didn't want to say it they knew the vixen was right, there wasn't going to be any back-up and if they lost communications with the rest of the group they would probably just be considered lost causes like everyone else that had attempted to go in before them. The anxiety in the air was palpable and only grew more intense when they felt the electric discharge of them passing through the force-field that had cut the city off from the rest of the world. It was the point of no return, now that they were inside the megacity they wouldn't be able to leave until the job was done.

Since there were no windows inside of the car they had to wait until it came to a complete stop and the doors opened to let them out. None of them knew what to expect, though the cameraman had stated that it was probably like the destroyed cities one would see in zombie movies it was all speculation. Satellites had attempted to get an image of what was going on but with the relative power of the force field used to keep the threat in it caused too much interference to get any sort of clear picture. All the four could do was brace themselves as their car came to a complete stop and the doors slowly slid open...

For a few minutes no one dared poke out their head, hearing tales of people who would get hit with a ball of rubbery goo and start transforming, until the army alligator barked at them to get off. After jumping slightly the ocelot and the bull got out so they could get their positioning, the vixen coming out after them and finally the alligator with his gun. The second that they got off the vehicle the doors closed shut behind them and it drove off back the way it came, leaving the four of them alone in the megacity that had all the eyes of the world on it. As they looked around the promenade that they had been dropped off at and they looked around they were rather surprised at how... normal it looked.

There were no burned out buildings or vehicles in the streets, garbage wasn't everywhere and there weren't bodies scattered about. It was almost rather anticlimactic in a sense, the vixen moving in front of the camera after finding a spot that showed the most of the city behind her. "Alright guys, on me," she said as she made sure the microphone on her throat was ready to pick up the words she said. "Three... two..."

"One," a voice suddenly said to the side of them, all four of them jumping back in shock as the alligator rose up his gun. "Oh dear, I hope I didn't startle you too badly." The creature that stood before them definitely was not out of the ordinary, its shiny rubber skin glinting in the light as it looked at them with glowing green eyes. "My name is Serathin, Overlord of the Sabredrones and your tour guide for the duration of your stay here in my fair city."

"I'm... Felicia," the reporter said as she quickly regained her composure, motioning angrily at the cameraman and sound guy. who had both been pointing their equipment at the ground from the shock, and went over to shake the hand of the rubber creature. "This is my cameraman James, my sound manager Boris, and the one in the military uniform is Jackson."

"A pleasure to meet all of you," Serathin replied. "It's been a while since we've had guests and honestly we've been rather anxious to get out and stretch our legs. Made the most of it though, as you'll see, and if you could make sure not to point the hardware at any of mine that would be most appreciated."

The alligator didn't even realize that he had still been pointing the gun until the creature made mention of it, slinging it around his back as Serathin motioned for them all to follow him. With their hearts no longer racing they were able to take in the form of the one that called himself Overlord, definitely seeing the saber teeth of the namesake as his impressive physique was completely covered head to toe with a layer of rubber and nothing more. A long mane of synthetic hair cascaded down his back and the green stripes on his black and purple arms glowed like his eyes as he led them down the stairs and onto the street proper. Once the four of them got out of the arrival area they were once more met with another surprise that none of them had been expecting.

The entire area was filled with Sabredrones, most of them looking almost identical in nature as they walked about as naked as the Overlord that had created them. What was even more bizarre was how they were acting; all of them were going about their daily business like one would see in any other street of any other city, save for the fact they were rubber with many sporting some sort of collar, cuffs, or other sort of gear. A clearing of the throat from Serathin brought their attention away from the creatures going about their tasks and put it back on him, explaining to them that the majority of those that he had converted were the typical sabredrone. Those in the group were aware of what they looked like as they were the primary spreaders of the rubbery outbreak that claimed the city as Serathin brought them to a restaurant.

"I thought that you might want to interview one of my more interesting drone variants," Serathin explained as they walked over to a booth that had a single sabredrone sitting in it, his arms tinged pink instead of the usual purple as the vixen sat down opposite him. "This is Amasis. He was one of the first to be converted and as you can see by the markings he got quite a fair few himself before the city was finally quarantined."

"The... markings?" Felicia asked, looking at the glowing green stripes on his body. "You mean the stripes?"

"Exactly," Serathin replied with a smirk. "But enough of me talking, I want you to have a chat with him and see what life is like as a sabredrone and such while I get the noodle order I had placed. Have fun, and that goes for you two as well!"

"You two?" the vixen asked again, turning his attention to the glowing green stare of the creature in front of her. "What does he mean by-"

Felicia was cut short as the four of them heard a hiss, all of them looking at the rubber sabrecobra head that rose up from the table while a smirk formed on Amasis' face. "As Serathin said, I am Amasis," the chimera sabredrone said as he motioned to the snake next to him, which turned out to be his tail. "This is Uraeus."

"It's... ah, a pleasure to meet you both," Felicia said, turning back to James to make sure the camera was rolling before she got started with the interview, getting a thumbs up from the ocelot before turning back. "Now I have to say the first thing that surprised me was how... I guess you could say normal everything looks? After the chaos of the night that the Sabredrones invaded things were a little chaotic to say the least."

"Even more so if you were in the heart of it," Amasis replied. "But once the initial conversion was over and the force field was put into place we all pitched in and put everything back to right. For most of us this was our home, and for other it became as such, so we wanted to make it nice."

"I see," Felicia replied. "I happen to notice that despite the usage of the word drone it appears that there is quite a lot of individual thought and personality, especially with you. Are you all currently speaking as one in some sort of hivemind or something like that?"

Surprisingly the question caused the rubber creature to laugh, leaning back slightly in the booth. "Not everything is like what you might see on television," the chimera sabredrone stated. "But to answer your question we are all linked via the Sabredrone Network, which is a hivemind of sorts and can be utilized as such if need be. For most of the time however the Overlord allows us to go about our daily lives, I can only imagine that he doesn't have the time or patience to micromanage the millions of us out there."

"I suppose that does make sense," the vulpine replied with a small laugh. "I'm not sure if this is too sensitive for you, but could you perhaps tell us how you managed to end up this way? Serathin stated that you were one of the first few that were changed during that night, if you can perhaps you can recount the events that led up to this event."

"Of course," Amasis replied. "I was one of the first that had gotten caught, was at the movies when it happened and didn't realize it at the time but I was about to get a private screening of my own..."

*******************

Amasis and Uraeus sat in the rather comfy seats of the theatre, which had been mostly empty from the time they had gone in until right up to the opening trailers. This had been a deliberate arrangement, the chimera waiting until the end of the run of an only semi-popular movie so that he could watch with the full movie experience while having as few people around as possible. As luck would have it an insanely popular superhero movie was premiering the same night as well, which meant that most people were drawn to that instead of the one he was about to see. It meant that in a theatre that could sit over sixty there was just himself and his tail snake as he put a bucket of popcorn next to him in the empty seat.

With the movie theatre keeping the trailers rather quiet Amasis could occasionally hear the sounds of the other movie going on that had already started, an occasional explosion or a shout from the action-heavy flick. As the last minutes of the trailers began and the lights dimmed he could hear more shouting, then the occasional scream, and it only seemed to grow louder to the point it could be clearly heard by the chimera. He began to put down his chair and his hooved feet pressed against the sticky floor as both he and his snake tail looked at the wall in curiosity and concern.

But just as he was about to go out and see what was going on the sounds of panic quickly died down again, to the point where Amasis started to doubt that he had heard. Maybe it was just the sound of the movie, the chimera said to himself, Uraeus nodding before he went to the popcorn bucket and taking a kernel. Just as he started to recline back in his seat to enjoy the movie once more he heard the sound of the door opening into the theater. It appeared he wasn't going to be completely alone, but with an entire theatre to choose from he didn't think it would really matter.

Unfortunately it appeared to the chimera that the person was going to be one of those that were going to sit right behind him. Just as he as was about to look behind him to see who was about to do such a thing when he suddenly felt a pair of hands press against his shoulders and pin him to the leather. "Where do you think you're going?" a voice said in the darkness. "The show is just about to start."

Uraeus let out a hiss and went to strike at the creature that had just pinned him, but before the snake tail could strike it was grabbed by another one that had walked in front of him. With the light of the movie going he could see the one that was in front of him, causing the chimera to gasp at what he saw. This creature was covered head to toe in rubber, even his eyes as they glowed with a green light while he leaned in. "I can sense already that you're going to be a fun one," the second creature said as their muzzles hovered a few inches from one another to the point where Amasis could feel the breath coming from his sabretoothed muzzle. "Going to be much better than the last theater, had to rush it just to make sure to get everyone."

Amasis found himself swallowing hard as he started to realize that another aspect of the two creatures was that they were completely naked, the four armed creature in front of him sliding underneath his shirt. "You... you were what I heard in the other theatre," Amasis said, feeling himself growing strangely at ease despite being between two alien rubber creatures that were admittedly extremely handsome in his eyes. "What did you do them?"

"Shhhh..." the creature said, bringing a glowing green finger up to the lip of the chimera. "Let's leave that as a surprise. I guarantee you will enjoy it, in fact it appears you already are..."

Amasis grunted as he found his pants getting pulled down around his ankles, looking down to find his own member already starting to harden under their ministrations. He also saw in his vision that where the rubber hands of the other male had touched the rubber of his body had started to spread over his body as well. The chimera grunted loudly as he began to feel pleasure spreading where the rubber did, seeing Uraeus wiggling as well as the shiny latex began to assimilate his scales as well. The male keeping his upper body pressed against the lounger seemed to be content to keep him there, though as the lust began to filter through his body the hands on him were less and less needed.

It was clear to the two rubber males, whom the name Sabredrone came unbidden to Amasis' mind, knew what they were doing as he felt his legs get lifted into the air. The four-armed Sabredrone began whispering into his ear of how this was definitely the best method of conversion, feeling the rubber tongue licking against his ear and cheek before finding its way into his mouth. The chimera found himself allowing it to pass his lips as he nodded his head, the pleasure quickly overwhelming his rational thought. It was like the two Sabredrones were pulling the negative thoughts from his mind and replacing them with the euphoria of being enveloped in rubber like the two muscular males.

This was definitely better then the movie... Amasis thought to himself as the Sabredrone between his legs took his pierced cock and began to push it into his pucker. With the conversion already well underway it didn't take much for the ring of muscle to allow the thick tool inside him. His mouth opened wide in a gasp as he could feel something in his mind, a foreign tendril of thought that hadn't been there before... other voices joining his own as they introduced him into the Sabredrone Network...

********************

The vixen attempted to hide her shock at hearing the story, not realizing how... intensely sexual it would be. Amasis was quick to clarify that it wasn't like that for all the drones, or even most, but for those who would enjoy such a thing they were very willing to indulge. "So you're saying that you wanted for these drones to convert you?" Felicia asked. "There have been reports that near the end of the invasion before the quarantine was put into place that there were some that were willfully giving themselves to the sabredrones."

"I'm sure there were," Amasis replied with a chuckle. "Even if we never spread past this force field there would be those that would migrate here in order to become one with us. Who knows, you may find yourselves to be one of them."

The four looked at one another wearily, but before they could go back to asking Amasis more questions Serathin came back holding a bag. "I think it's time that we move on to the next part of the tour," the rubber sabrewolf said as he motioned for them to stand up. "From the timeline that the alligator's friends have given me your ride will be here before the sun is down, which means that I have a lot to get through before then if I'm to make my case known. Thank you Amasis for your contribution, but now it's time to see who gets to control all the drones when the need is there and I'm not around."

The four continued on a little further behind the rubbery creature, comparing notes with one another through whispered conversation that they hoped their tour guide wouldn't hear. It appeared that while most looked like copies of one another there were a few that could customize their appearance a bit. There were also other types of drones, one of which was heading straight towards them. Unlike most of the drones that had a similar body type to the one they were following this one had notably feline-like features, including a particularly long tail that swayed back and forth as well. He also had a spined fin that ran down his back between his wings as Serathin introduced this one as Newlyn.

"Newlyn is one of my controller Sabredrones," Serathin instructed them. "Basically whatever he says they do, and he's often in control of dozens at one time. Makes group projects much easier to accomplish, wouldn't you say?"

"I think you're exactly right Overlord," Newlyn replied with a chuckle. "I thought we could walk around the atrium a bit while we talk. Is that going to be alright with James?"

The vixen looked back at the ocelot, who shook his head simply and got the camera ready. Felicia got herself ready as she normally did, looking into the lens to make sure everything still looked good before turning her attention back to Newlyn once James made it clear they were rolling again. "So Newlyn, you're what they call a sabredrone controller," Felicia stated. "Can you perhaps explain a little what that means?"

"Simply put, I'm like the dispatcher for all the drones out there," Newlyn replied as they started to walk down the path. "As you can imagine there are a lot of Sabredrones out there and the potential for them is enormous; with the addition of the Network and my control over them we're like ants, capable of tremendous feats like completely building this atrium in weeks."

The four of them looked around in slight awe, not realizing that the glass structure around them hadn't been there before the sabredrone invasion. "Impressive," Felicia stated, turning back to the snow leopard sabredrone. "Perhaps you can relate to us how you became a controller over, let's say, a regular sabredone?"

********************

Newlyn walked down the street, the Sabredrone walking with several others that had been freshly converted as they poured out of the building where several dozen restaurants patrons had been just freshly converted. It had been several hours since the initial incursion of the Sabredrones was noticed by the general public. Thousands had already been assimilated by this point and as the former snow leopard moved with several others in unison they saw other rubber creatures fly overhead. This was bound to happen the second that their invasion plans were found out, plans that Newlyn hadn't been a part of until he had been confronted by several Sabredrones and rather pleasurably transformed.

Though Newlyn had wanted to explore his own body some more, feeling his new rubber horns and wings with his hands, he had been commanded by the controller Sabredrone that was controlling the horde that had swarmed the eatery. There were others that needed to converted, whether the same method as his own or just by touch to bring them into the fold, and they were the driving force behind it. As they went however the former snow leopard couldn't help but continue to feel his lust, licking his lips as he saw the rears of the other males walking in front of him with those tails swaying back and forth.

Suddenly there was a loud crash as that happened in the alley next to them, the dozen creatures that were walking by turning their heads at the same time. With his augmented eyesight Newlyn could see that a car had attempted to try to drive down the narrow back away in order to avoid the growing group of Sabredrones that were gathering on the main street, only to have lost control and hit a dumpster. At first it looked like a normal accident, but as they approached he could see that there was another problem... the dumpster had gotten wedged into a wall and sliced into a natural gas pipeline. The other Sabredrones didn't realize this and as they got distracted by attempting to catch those that were trying to get out of the damaged vehicle Newlyn couldn't get their attention through the Network.

"Everyone stop!" Newlyn shouted, jumping up on the car while both Sabredrone and survivor looked up at him. "We need to move this car away from the dumpster and move it so that we can shut off the gas! If we don't it could cause the entire building to go up in flames... so I want four of you in the front, four of you in the back, and two on each side right now!"

Despite being a drone just like them the others found themselves following the dominant male, arranging themselves around the car just like Newlyn had asked. With their synchronicity and augmented strength they were able to easily lift the damaged vehicle, those in the car just watching in awe as they slid them back down the alley. The second they were far enough away Newlyn and a few others went to the gas main and shut it off, this hissing gas quieting down until it stopped completely. As the former snow leopard breathed a sigh of relief he heard a crashing sound and saw that the others that had stuck around the car had gotten the four out and began to convert them.

"Well there goes my stripe..." Newlyn muttered to himself as he stood up, breathing a sigh of relief that they weren't about to explode as he saw the front of the car smoking slightly.

"I think that what you've done merits something more then just a stripe," a voice said behind him, Newlyn slowly turning back and immediately falling down to one knee as he saw that it was the imposing visage of the overlord himself. "I'm impressed, you really whipped those drones into line. With everything else I see in you I think that you would be a prime controller Sabredrone. What do you think?"

"I would be honored!" Newlyn replied happily. "Anything to serve the Sabredrone network."

"I'm pleased to hear that," Serathin stated. "Now we could either do this the easy way..." the muscular male said as he gestured down to the heavy black rubber cock nestled between his legs. "Or we can do this the fun way."

Newlyn quickly gave him the answer as he gripped those powerful thighs and brought his maw up to the half-hard shaft. With his unique anatomy he was able to practically slide it all the way into his throat, feeling not only the blissful sensation of serving the overlord but also the pleasure of having that thick cock inside of him. As he his throat bulged with the shape of the shaft the Sabredrone began to feel his body tingle, the rubber shifting as he suddenly became aware that he could change himself while he was impaled. While he bobbed his head up and down the stiffening member his head morphed, shifting from canine to more of a rounded feline appearance.

That was just the start of it, when Newlyn could see just how easily malleable his body had become he decided to truly live out a fantasy of his. The kneeling male let out a muffled groan as his tail, which had already become thicker and more reptilian as it was modeled after the overlord, stretched and expanded. The changing rubber creature gripped the legs of the other pleasured male even tighter as it continued to swell, becoming almost as long as he was as it shined in the light. There were a few other touches here and there as Newlyn felt his connection to the network become more powerful as well, elevating him above the drones that surrounded them as he became a controller.

"Looking good," Serathin said as he pulled the other rubber male off, taking his hand and running it down the latex fin that had grown down his back as an added touch. "As much as I would love to help you break in your new body there is much more work that needs to be done and more Sabredrones to help..."
