Return of Solta (Part 1/2)
This was a reward for someone who won a contest over on DA. I liked the way it turned out, not too much else to say!
Nick was out exploring in a cave. He was an adventurer who was always seeking new treasures and secrets. Nick had read up on his destination, the cave was called Solto Cave. It was a peculiar name, allegedly named after the person who discovered it. However. Nick was unable to find anything on this "Solto" but he did find something interesting relating to the name. According to legend, Solto was someone who stopped his sister, Solta from causing havoc in the world that would leave it beyond repair. However, the details seemed to be lost through the years, but one stayed with the legend. Solto lead his sister to the cave, where she never left. Solto never responded to any kind of questions relating to the events. This is partly why the legend started to diminish. People began to see him as a fraud, and claimed about his sister's evil. He would go on to be banished, and Solto Cave were to never be entered again.
Of course there's ways of getting in. A rumor was there was a secret entrance to the cave. Rumor had it that Solta attempted to claw he way out, but Solto caught up to her, putting a stop to her escape. According to a message board, the route she was planning on taking was mapped out, but considering the source, no one quite believed it. But a little hope would prove enough of Nick. As luck would obviously have it, the rumor was true, Nick burrowing his way into Solto Cave.
He wandered around the cave, looking for any trace of the legend with Solta and Solto. It seemed to be all in vain, as nothing seemed to appear. He wandered into a chamber, of which looked like a tomb. Nick entered into it carefully, looking around at the walls. There were carvings in some strange language he couldn't understand, but there was one scrawling in plain, legible English. The only thing it said was "DO NOT OPEN!!!" underlined three times and an arrow pointing to a box. Nick approached the box carefully, examining it. This was the treasure, it had to be. But why was there a warning?
Nick considered what to do. Obviously there was something in the box, but what? Gold? Diamond? Or was it something bad? He reflected on what he had to go off of. The only thing in English was the warning, what if someone else just didn't want him taking the treasure? "Okay..." Nick said to himself taking a deep breath. "I'm opening it..." Nick carefully opens up the box, nothing happening at first. "Huh?" he asks out loud. Then suddenly, a green mist flies out, circling the room. It tries to escape seemingly, unable to escape the tomb chamber. It stops for a moment before starting to lunge at Nick. He tries to evade it to no avail, as the mist enters into his body. "What was that!?" he yells out to himself in fear. Nothing appeared to happen at first, then suddenly he hunched over in pain.
Out from Nick's backside, a long tail elongated, tearing apart his jeans and boxers. The underside was yellow while the top was light green. Noah's front began to grow yellow scales, while green scales began to form all around it. Nick's hips expanded out into wide, childbearing size while his rear became rounder. He felt a pain like no other at his crotch. He felt a mix of pain and pleasure as his manhood slowly sucked into him, turning into everything a female has, making her capable of birth. Nick, now much more of a "her" attempted to reach down there, unable to as more changes signaled more pain.
Nick's legs took on the light green scales as they became much more shapely and feminine. Her feet became larger, turning into reptilian claws, ripping apart her shoes and socks. Nick's figure began to contort quite painfully so. Her waist pushed inward and narrowed while her back goes into an arch. Nick felt painful pleasure yet again as two mounds of flesh push forward. They kept growing until they were C cup breasts. Her arms became thin and slender while her hands turned more bestial and her nails turned to claws.
The last of her changes came at her head. Nick's hair grew out much longer, turning black as it did. Her eyes turned into reptilian slits as her face pushed out into a muzzle. Thin eyelashes formed as her head became harder and covered in green scales. The transformation ended with two large gold rings forming over her right wrists and an orange loincloth over her crotch and an orange piece of armor acting as a bra.
Nick caught her breath as the pain began to subside. She slowly stood back up, and she really felt her new proportions, making her have poor balance. The extra weight at her chest was quite a lot for Nick. She looked down to her muzzle, bringing her hands up to feel it. She shivered in fear as her hands slowly went down her body, feeling her breasts for the first time. This sent a wave of pleasure, which in turn caused a sense of panic. She officially felt her crotch, the flatness causing a frown to come onto her face.
"So you're the one who freed me, unfortunate." a woman called out.
"You're that mist? What did you do to me!?" Nick called out to her.
"Should have listened to the warning the kid, I can't escape like this, but since you're still, well you, I can!" the voice calls out.
"W-who are you?" Nick asks nervously.
"You've heard the legends." she replies with a smug tone.
"No...you-you're..." Nick stutters unable to say it.
"Solta! In the flesh! Well, your flesh now." she replies as if she was proud of it.
"Change me back now!" Nick demands.
"Afraid I can't do that, you and I are partners now, I'm not leaving you!" she starts to laugh maniacally.
"I can't live like this! I'll look like a freak!" Nick argues.
"Oh but you're not alone...for now." she says slyly.
"What are you talking about?" Nick ask concerned and curious.
"Let's get out of here, right through the front door and I'll show you."
"How can I trust you?" Nick asks skeptically.
"You can't trust yourself? We are the same person after all!" Solta laughs again.
Nick lets out a sigh. She couldn't stay in the tomb forever and had to leave. She sucks it up and begins to walk out of the tomb through the cave, oddly enough, she seemed to walk comfortable in this new body, despite her new size and proportions.
"I'm helping you walk, I know how girls walk with their extra weight and all, you're welcome." Solta speaks up.
"Whatever." Nick grumbles. "Say, can I ask why you possessed me? Why didn't you just escape?" she asks, at least hoping for answers should she be stuck in this lizard form.
"All that graffiti in that room. Those are wardings. It prevented me from leaving the room. So, I hitched a ride in you. There were...side effects but admit it, you like this body." she says slyly.
"What? No I don't! I'd like to be a man again, and at the very least human!" Nick defends.
"I can see your mind old Nikki, I think that name suits you." she replies with a chuckle.
"My name is Nick." Nick responds sternly.
"Please, I know you love that body, even if you don't want to admit it, and you like the name. I'm in you! I can see your thoughts and feel your emotions! There's no hiding!" Solta responds smugly.
"Alright, maybe I do like this and for now; you can call me Nikki, but I can't stay like this! What's everyone going to say? This is your body no?" Nikki says.
"Well...yes, but no matter. They all assume I'm dead, they'll only think we're a look a like." she defends. "And don't you worry about not fitting in, once we meet the others I'll take care of that." Solta responds in a friendly tone.
"Alright, I'll trust you..." Nikki sighs looking forward.
"Why are you so bummed out? This is a good thing!" Solta calls out to Nikki.
"I'm just...overwhelmed..." Nikki admits.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine, we'll get out of this cave, get a motel and rest. Simple." she comforts.
"Alright..." Nikki sighs, this time a small smile managing its way onto her face.
"You like the idea, see? I'm not so bad, my brother was the wicked one!" Solta comments.
"You are comforting at least." Nikki says with a smile. "That's something."
Nikki and Solta both begin approaching the entrance to the cave, the usual two guards standing watch. Nikki stands behind a large stalagmite and hides.
"What do we do?" Nikki whispers to Solta.
"Remember how I said you wouldn't be alone?" Solta asks.
"Yeah?" Nikki answers confused.
"Just focus on those two, see them as someone like yourself." Solta guides.
"Okay..." Nikki responds confused, looking over to them, imaging the man on the right as a female cat, the one on the left a female bear. Almost instantly the two began to hunch over.
Nikki watches intently as she witnessed the two change. The man on the right's clothes ripped off of him, his figure turning into an hourglass shape. His hips and rear widened as a long black tail elongated from his rear. His legs became shapely as his feet turned into paws. His arms became slender while his shoulders cracked forward, two large breast formed on his chest. The man's privates altered into those meant for a girl while her head became that of a cat's; a muzzle forming, triangular ears, whiskers; the full package as the man became an anthro black cat. The man on the left was changing as well. He grew born fur all over as his figure became an hourglass shape. His legs became shapely and his arms slender, turning feminine. A pair of breasts formed as his manhood left, changing his gender. The man's ears became circular while his nose became small and black, moving to the tip of a small muzzle that had formed. Her teeth became sharper as her hands and feet turned more paw-like. The two men turned woman got up and looked at each other, letting out a feminine squeal, all while blushing through their fur. The two run off in opposite directions.
"Neat huh?" Solta says noticing Nikki's expression, of which was a small smile.
"Whoa...I did that?" Nikki asks Solta intrigued.
"Yes you did! It's a power you inherited courtesy of your's truly." Solta answers with a chuckle.
"That's...really cool." Nikki says her smile growing.
"Yeah, and together, we'll convert this whole city!" Solta calls out.
"All this power..." Nikki says getting giddy. "I can change the world at my fingertips! This is the best treasure ever!" Nikki cheers.
"Come on Nikki, we have work to do..." Solta comments with a mischievous tone.
