Becca takes the plunge and joins the SotF server, beginning her introduction to the tournament and getting a first hand experience on what it's like being a player.

The week since watching the tournament final Becca had been trying to convince herself that her Dirty Dungeon crawls were enough fun and stimulation for her. But yet she kept finding herself thinking back on all the things she saw, the way Selena had surprised Grimm. Then Selena getting surprised by Fyre soon after. That action alone caught her interest, but then on top of that was the substantial prize money on top of it all. Of course Becca knew she would never be in the same league as Selena and Fyre, but even some of the lower tier matches still had pretty decent prizes.

Eventually after a lot of back and forth Becca caved to her curiosity, opening the data bit the following Friday evening as she had the weekend off and no other plans to speak of, so it was the perfect time to explore the tournaments. Also with the finals over, there probably wasn't a whole lot going on there right now so she would be less conspicuous.

After eating a light meal and making sure she wouldn't need to relieve herself for a while, Becca climbed into bed and activated her augmented reality, the black data window with green text loading up back to where she'd left off with the two links displayed. However Becca noticed the top link to the tournament now was crossed out.

After a moments hesitation she selected the second link, a small security window briefly popped up and confirmed that she had previously passed the required security checks and the ID of her Halo was in fact the same one used to access the network in the past. One final window opened up requesting permission for SotF Networks to make the required adjustments to her Halo before being able to fully connect. The flashing red warning beneath the "Accept" and "Decline" buttons warned that this was not reversible and the users would be doing so at their own risk.

Becca hovered over the accept button for a moment, biting her bottom lip and closing her eyes as she clicked it. There was a sudden pressure about her, like she was caught in a strong wind and the sound of a card clacking in the spokes of a bicycle wheel pounding in her ears. Upon opening her eyes she was met with various screens with flashing text, some of which she recognized as connection protocols, over there was the sensation controls. The text scrolling rapidly up the screens flashing like a rave until suddenly vanishing as soon as they had appeared.

Becca found herself standing in an empty black room, the stillness heavy and oppressive. "Hello?" She called out, her voice echoing far into the distance. Just then the floor beneath her feet vanished and Becca was falling, wind rushing past her ears so fast that she couldn't even hear herself scream. With a lurch she suddenly stopped falling, her stomach dropping into her feet and almost making her want to be ill. Her decent slowed, floating down until her feet touched the ground again and a bright white light burst down on her from high above. Standing in the centre of the pillar of light, Becca shielded her eyes as she tried to look around. The pillar of light began to expand and dim to a more tolerable level until it was revealed Becca now stood in an empty white room about the size of her apartment.

"Welcome to your avatar creation, your security check has verified your identity as female. Loading wireframe of Self Reflection as a base to start." A soothing robotic female voice announced, the wireframe of Becca appearing before her, mimicking her actions as she walked around inspecting it.

Curiously with a gesture of her hand much like one would use with normal augmented reality, Becca found herself provided with a whole host of customization options. First trying out the randomizer, she saw her wireframe self shift into various species of animal with colour patterns ranging from plain and drab to outright outlandish. Nothing really caught her eye and she was beginning to get anxious at this taking so long that she started looking through the various options. Choices ranged from Super Species such as Lions and Tigers, to Sub-Species like more domesticated animals like household cats and dogs. There was even a section for mythological creatures, like Gryphons and dragons, this brought a smile to Becca's face as it brought back fond memories of her time in Dirty Dungeon. Selecting the mythological creatures section she scrolled through the various creatures, finding Dragons made her look too scary, Gryphons just weren't her thing and Werewolves just made her look deformed. Eventually she came across a Kitsune, it looked very similar to a fox she saw earlier that had almost caught her interest, but with subtle differences. The colour regions and patterns on the Kitsune were far more varied and dynamic, they also seemed more sleek and agile somehow. Becca loved the fiery orange of a normal fox, but given this was the tournament she figured she should try add some stealth to her avatar as well. Being a bit of a classic game nerd she recalled certain game characters sneaking around in skin-tight grey suites and added that to the mix as well. She also opted to give her avatar some black lines, similar to one of her favourite classic Spiderman outfits. Becca was rather pleased with the end result, piercing emerald eyes, a short fiery red mop top of hair resting between two slightly larger than normal fox ears. Her shoulders, hands, feet and two patches at her hips retained the fox red, circled by the black outlines and the rest covered in a dark grey, giving the impression she was wearing some form of outfit, even if she was nude. Looking at her characters chest however, Becca opted to shrink the massive default breasts to something more realistic, she wanted herself to appear lithe and athletic. Strong thighs and hips, a shapely behind and hourglass waist. The only white spot would be at the very tip of her quite luxurious tail which seemed to be rather animated, swaying and curling behind the vixen avatar standing before her.

Giving her new self one last look over, Becca was happy with her choice and pressed the commit button, accepting the warning that this was a permanent selection and could not be changed later. Again Becca felt the rush of wind past her face, only now it seemed somehow different, raising her hand to her face she was startled to see the red colored fur and sharp claws where her nails should be. Gently touching her face she felt whiskers, moving further back up into her hair she felt large pointy ears. An unusual sensation at her lower back caught her attention next, Becca looking back over her shoulder to see her tail twitching and flicking in agitation. "Oh, it seems to be following my mood and thoughts..." She thought to herself, testing this theory by forcing herself to calm down and noting the tail also began to move in a more relaxed manner. Smiling as she seemed to be getting the hang of this new body fairly quickly, her paws began to touch and explore herself. Feeling the silky soft texture of her pelt, the brush of her fingers across her breasts and nipples however would make the vixen gasp out in surprise at how good it felt. "Damn, that's more sensitive than I thought" Her cheeks were already beginning to blush at the sensation, her other hand stroking down over her taut belly and between her thighs. The touch was electric, Becca's blush blossoming scarlet as she caught herself moaning out loud.

"Alright Cadet, you can jerk off later. It's time for your training!" A gruff voice called from a suddenly open doorway that had not been there a moment before. A large black wolf with a scar across his left eyes stood glaring at the vixen with a paw between her thighs and the other groping her own breast. Becca jumped and quickly tried to cover herself, realizing she was nude in front of a stranger.

"Nothing I haven't seen before" Commented the wolf with a smirk as he stared at her almost unblinking. It was then that Becca noticed he too was nude, sporting a package that brought back memories of Grimm. "Get your ass out here so we can begin the tour!" He barked, making her jump again and quickly scramble over to him.

Becca was led out into a large circular room with bare grey concrete walls and flooring, doors and passages leading off to who knew where at evenly spaced intervals. View screens hung from a pillar in the center of the roof showing current ongoing matches with what looked like vendor stalls around the base. There were rooms arranged in concentric circles for people to train and test themselves in.

"This here is the hub, if you've ever played any game ever, you'll know this is where you get your items and information from. The passages around the outer ring lead to other services, most of which you won't be able to access until you've completed your prerequisite five cadet matches. Don't worry about winning or losing, just complete the matches and it counts towards your total." The wolf stated as he began guiding her around the outer ring, explaining different rooms and what they were used for. Some were simple wardrobe rooms, for those that actually wanted clothing for their characters, but this was generally just a vanity thing and did nothing to improve a players chances. Others were for weapon and trap testing, Becca watching as a slender looking ferret used what appeared to be a miniature black hole to subdue a massive bull NPC. The ferret smirking with glee as they walked right up to the bull and began openly fondling their impressive hanging balls.

A few rooms down Becca's ears perked as she heard someone begging for mercy, looking around the corner she saw another big black wolf identical to her guide pinning a smaller fox boy down on all fours as he forcefully inserted a thick angry red canine member under his tail that was being yanked up high in one of the wolves fists.

"But I'm not gay!" The fox whined and cried out as the wolf continued to sink the thick length under his tail.

"Doesn't matter here pup, better you lose your cherry here than out on the field" The wolf growled and gave one final buck to slap his hips against the foxes behind.

Despite his protests to the contrary, Becca couldn't help but notice that the wolf was sporting wood. A few thrusts later and there was an impressive arc of fox semen cutting through the air. The wolf standing beside her laughed and shook his head.

"I love the newbies, no one is gay until they get their first climax fucked out of them. Doesn't mean they're not straight in the real world, just the pleasure sensors here are designed to make sure you players enjoy yourself, no matter who or what is fucking you." He clarified before moving on the another room.

"You'll want to make sure you're as versatile as possible if you want to succeed, specializing in one fighting or weapon type can make you vulnerable not only to other players, but to the environment as well" The wolf said with a nod at the next rooms occupant.

Becca watched what looked to be a rather large bear in full knight's armor swing a massive two handed sword as they chopped through wave after wave of insect monsters. "Watch what happens when I give her a real challenge, she thinks brute strength is enough" The evil smirk on the wolfs lips sent a shiver down Becca's spine, watching as he tapped a few buttons beside the door to the room. The insect creatures suddenly vanishing, much to the bear's confusion as she turned around looking for her next opponent.

A slimy pink tentacle launched out at the bear from the shadows, grabbing her around the ankle and yanking her off her feet. With a loud clattering thud the bear hit the ground hard, scrambling to try free herself of the new adversary. Swinging her sword to cut away the tentacle around her ankle to free herself and get back onto her feet and facing the direction of her attacker. Only it wasn't there anymore as another tentacle shot out from a different location, this time catching the bear's arms and separating them, pulling her hands outstretched wide and effectively negating the weapon. More and more tentacles began appearing and wrapping around the armored bear, slithering under her metal armor and beginning to tug at them until creaks and snaps were heard, the armor starting to give away and being ripped off the panicked looking ursine. Her legs being forced wide apart as a thick tentacles forced her jaws open to begin fucking her mouth. Her breasts were roughly squeezed and rubbed by two more, but the worst came from two impossibly thick tentacles aiming right between the bears spread thighs and her tail being held lifted.

Becca was pulled away by her wolf guide, the cries and groans of the bear following her as the moved on to their next destination. A part of her was worried about everything she had seen, but a greater part was actually excited by it. There were far more people here than she had expected to see as well, it looked as though even when it wasn't tournament time people came here to train or even just hang out. A few rooms displayed cadets sparring with each other to test their skills against a real person and not just an AI, but the overall mood seemed rather jovial considering what everyone was here for.

"Time for your training cadet" The wolf said without warning as they entered an empty room, Becca turning to look at him just in time to be backhanded across the face. The force of the hit sending her crashing back into the wall. With her head spinning she leaned against the wall for support as she spat out a "What the hell!?" at the wolf whom was already advancing on her.

His large hand just gripped her tight around the throat as he pushed her up against the wall until her feet were no longer touching the ground. His other hand roughly groping at her breasts as he leaned in to snarl at her "This isn't one of your fun Dungeon games, people are here to win and they will do whatever it takes. Do you understand?" He growled into her ear while roughly pinching her nipple. Becca was surprised to find that while it hurt, there was also a note of pleasure to what he was doing to her sensitive nipple. She guessed she did understand, this was a fighting tournament where you literally fucked other players to win. Nodding her head at the wolf, his only response was to sneer at her before tugging her off the wall and dropping her down onto that thick red menacing cock she'd seen the other fox take earlier. Pain flared between her thighs for a moment, at least until the large wolf began bouncing her along his shaft and the pleasure sensors went into overdrive. It was too much and within moments Becca felt her climax crash over her, whining and panting as she squirmed against the wolfs cock.

"You failed! Learn some self-control!" He growled at the vixen before tossing her onto the floor. As she rolled onto her knees to get up, he was on her again, this time grabbing her tail and painfully yanking it up before she felt exactly what the other fox did. That angry red cock sunk unbidden under her tail without warning, hot and hard as it stretched her and made her cry out. Her paws clutched uselessly at the floor as the wolfs hips quickly set to hammering down into her behind, roughly yanking her back by his grip on her tail every time she bounced off his hips. Her mind confused as the pain again quickly faded away, only to be replaced by some sort of sick pleasure and she once more found herself moaning and whining as another climax began to build within her.

"These damn pleasure sensors are going to take some getting used to..." she thought before bucking and writhing beneath the wolf once more in pleasure.

"Better, you actually lasted longer that time. But you still failed!" He sighed before withdrawing himself from under her tail. His large hand reaching out to grip her by the hair, roughly lifting her from the floor by her scalp which brought tears to Becca's eyes. As her lips parted in a pained cry the wolf would just plug it shut with his thick length, cramming himself in her muzzle so she would begin choking on him. Again he started to roughly buck and fuck her muzzle, his thick knot bumping against her fangs and forcing them wider until she couldn't open her mouth any wider. Her jaws starting to ache as he fucked her hard for ages, though curiously she noted that she didn't actually seem to be choking for air, just the feeling of her throat being stuffed.

With a howl the wolf came and came hard, flooding Becca's muzzle with hot white seed, forcing it down her throat and into her belly. Again she was impressed by the programming of this place as she could feel it making its way down to her stomach. Finally he pulled free of her mouth, the vixen gasping for air even though she didn't need to, just a trick her mind played on her. Looking up at the wolf she caught his smirk before she felt a last few shots of his seed across her face and muzzle while he marked her.

"Best learn some fighting skills before you head into a match, you're greener than a toads left testicle cadet" His smirk said it all, she was pretty useless here. She didn't have any real world fighting skills to fall back on, she was a programmer after all and they weren't known for their Kung Fu ability. With a gesture of her paw Becca brought up the augmented menu again, scrolling through various options she found she could download different fighting styles and skills such as trap making or animal taming. For starters she just went with basic Karate, lights briefly flashing behind her eyes as years of training were downloaded to her mind in an instant.

With a smirk the vixen adopted a fighting stance, feet wide and weight centered, ready to advance or retreat on a moments notice, all while maintaining a low center of gravity. A paw extending to make a "Come get it" motion at the wolf whom just smirked and dropped down into a similar pose. Wolf and vixen started circling their little arena, trying to spot a weakness in their opponent before striking. The wolf seemed to be leaving his left side open every second step he took to the right.

Waiting for her moment to strike, as the wolf exposed his left flank Becca let loose with a kick aimed at his ribs. But the wolf just grinned and caught her leg, responding with an elbow to the side of her head and sending her sprawling again. Collapsing face down on the floor, she felt her tail being roughly yanked up again before the wolf sunk himself back beneath it. "Not again..." she groaned as one of his large hands forced her face into the floor while he rutted her hard.

The next few hours were spent trying different fighting styles, most of them ending with Becca being slapped and knocked around. Pinned against the floor and walls and being fucked every which way by the big wolf. A few people stopping by to watch the action as the new vixen seemed to have quite the determination and kept on going. Eventually after enough fights Becca managed to last long enough through the wolf's fucking that she would escape his control. A few fights later the wolf wasn't even able to catch her anymore and she started winning the odd fight here and there, much to the enjoyment of one particular fox watching from outside.

Their final fight ended with a stunning leg sweep that sent the wolf ass over kettle, landing on his head and stunning him long enough for Becca to pin him to the ground as she rubbed herself against his exposed length. Her paw around his throat as she purred down to him "Oh look, I won!" she mocked him as she sunk herself down onto his dripping cock with a merry little groan, quickly starting to bounce and ride the wolf to his first climax. Her hot little cunt stretched around his angry red length as she squatted over him, working her hips up and down to stroke herself down over his shaft with little slaps of her rear against his lap. With a snarl the wolf admitted defeat, giving one last buck up into the vixen before flooding her with his seed, the crowd outside bursting into cheers and clapping as they watched. Becca was so focused on the wolf she hadn't even noticed so many people were spectating her, suddenly feeling self-conscious that a bunch of strangers had just watched her fuck this wolf she only met a few hours ago.

"Get used to that, millions more people will be watching you when you compete in actual tournaments" panted her still pinned conquest, Becca realizing she was still gripping his throat and quickly let go before standing up and offering him a helping hand.

By the time Becca logged out of SotF and returned to the real world, she felt her stomach grumbling angry at her. Looking outside it was pitch black, apparently she'd been in there far longer than she'd thought. Slipping out from her bed and heading towards her kitchen, Becca stumbled at the sudden curious feeling between her thighs. It did feel like she'd been having sex all afternoon, even her jaw still ached a little along with an odd tenderness between her cheeks. With a little laugh and sigh she went off in search of something quick and easy to satisfy her hunger, not wanting to waste too much time before she could go back in and try her first cadet match with real people.
